De Rooie Kater Beilen in Wijk 00 Beilen

We were here Saturday evening. Had a good meal, friendly staff, it was pleasantly busy.

We had a super delicious meal and the waitresses were all top-notch! Friendly and polite! A small downside - the chair springs were sagging. You still have to pay for drinks and dessert on top of the Social Deal deal, but it was worth it and we will definitely be back!!

Nice and good service! Tasty and a wide variety of food.

We had a delicious meal and the ambiance was lovely. It's tapas, so you can taste a bit of everything.

A cozy location. It is precisely all that old stuff that creates a nice old-fashioned atmosphere. The snacks are delicious and the service is friendly and welcoming.

Great tapas restaurant. Prompt service, even when busy

Good service Efficient girls who know how to get things done And the food was delicious We will do this again

Very bad. We arrived at the restaurant at 18:20 and at 19:45 we still hadn't received our main course. Neither had 3 other guests who were there before us, nor the main course. While others who arrived after us had already finished eating.

Had a delicious meal on Saturday. Highly recommended.

Great tapas restaurant with a surprising interior! Too far away to eat there often (Egmond-Binnen), but definitely recommended.

Super cozy place. Highly recommended.

What a wonderful evening with super friendly service (Demi is a star!) and the food was truly delicious! We would love to come back again!

We had to wait a long time for the baguette we had ordered and for drinks, and the table was not cleared.

First of all, I find it striking that there are so many good reviews, given the experience we had. Based on these reviews, we decided to eat here during our weekend getaway in Dwingeloo. We really liked the decor; it was very nice and atmospheric. The concept was explained neatly and clearly by the friendly staff. However, the food, on the other hand, is truly awful (literally). My husband and I ate various things, some of which I simply couldn't finish (and I am not a picky eater). The ravioli was really bone dry and tasteless; the accompanying sauce was just tasteless tomato juice. A little thickener would have made this a lot better. The fresh ravioli from Albert Heijn tastes many times better. The fries were soggy, and the nachos were incredibly chewy and dry on top, though the bottom of the bowl was okay. It is also annoying that you are allowed to choose 2 mini dishes every 10 minutes. That is really too long, especially since you sometimes have to wait a bit longer to get your food. Certainly when you are really hungry. Midway through the evening, we both started having terrible stomach problems; I think I went to the toilet about four times. My husband has Crohn's disease and he was also suffering terribly from his stomach. The people at the table next to us were too, by the way, as we had asked them about it as well. The floor in the toilet was incredibly sticky, and the paneling in the toilet is made of unplaned, untreated wood. Drops always come out when flushing, so this is extremely unhygienic. The grout on the floor was also just really black, in addition to being sticky. We also lodged a complaint with the staff when paying; they charged one person instead of two, so that was decent. We spent the rest of the evening in bed with stomach pain and were forced, due to the symptoms, to take an Omeprazole. I really would not recommend this place; it is a real shame. We were really looking forward to it, given the many good reviews. Our visit was on Sunday, August 2nd, at 6:30 PM. Oh right, and a table opposite us wasn't cleared until after 1.5 hours, even though the staff wasn't particularly busy. We found that a bit odd too.

Cozy and authentic, many old things. Such as saxaphones and trumpets and children's instruments and a piano.

Beyond expectations, after all those small dishes we hadn't thought the dessert would be so much :-)

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. We were just misled by the term Tapas; we thought of Spanish Tapas. We hadn't read this correctly; the menu was on the website.

Had a delicious meal, friendly service, and all orders were delivered quickly! Definitely recommended.

Food with few surprises. We were very disappointed. Pork belly with sauce was just a few pieces of smoked bacon to us. The pizza had a strange taste. Sweet potato fries were simply black. The fried mushrooms were boiled rather than fried. Dates with bacon, on the other hand, were very tasty.

You can have a wonderful meal here. The food is well-prepared, served nicely, and very tasty! The service is relaxed, enthusiastic, and friendly!

We had a delicious meal; there was something for everyone. Ordering was done via a QR code. That was very easy; you could see what you could order. We will definitely eat here more often.

Great atmosphere, food was varied, but we had to report that dishes were sold out via their ordering app. After reporting, they were restocked. The ordering app system is not yet completely foolproof. The food was good.

Good food, just no door between the women's and men's toilets

Nice place to sit. Wide selection of tapas. I liked almost everything. Young people working, just like elsewhere. I do miss some finesse or experience. Even though they do their best. In any case, worth a repeat visit.

We've eaten there three times and had a very different experience all three times. From dry to deliciously tender. But still, there is a wide selection and good food (except for that one time).

We had dinner there tonight with my sisters and cousins, and we had a delicious meal. It was cozy, and the service was friendly.

To start with, the restaurant looked really great, beautifully decorated, and had a nice atmosphere!!! We had a delicious meal there yesterday; there was a lot of choice on the menu, the food was hot and well prepared, and the staff was very friendly—really top-notch. We've added another favorite spot to our list! And we will definitely be going again soon!

Super cute, cozy little restaurant. Delicious food and good service! Had a great evening.

It was very busy there, but also super cozy. The food was also very tasty. And it's fun to keep ordering something new, which is then served in small portions. Definitely worth it. And for a fixed price, you can stay as long as you want.

Friendly staff. The food was exquisite, it was simply good. This was my first time; I would love to come back again.

Very tasty and varied food Highly recommended!!

This was our first time visiting this restaurant. We booked through Social Deals. It has a great atmosphere and the staff is very friendly. It features an all-you-can-eat concept with small dishes. There are many choices: fried dishes, fresh dishes, and pre-prepared bites. We found some of the bites delicious, others less so. Ordering is done via a QR code on a phone. Each person at the table can scan the code on their own phone. The choices are automatically combined into one order. Desserts must be paid for separately, as must the drinks. Parking is available right outside or in the surrounding area. Overall impression: more than sufficient for what we paid.

Cozy atmosphere, good service, and delicious tapas!!!

Highly recommended!! We had a delicious meal here. Tasty small bites and something for everyone. Very cozy inside, surprisingly decorated, and friendly staff 👌

Sit back and relax, eat whenever you feel like it

Tastefully decorated restaurant. You can order two small bites per round, but it fills you up quickly! You can order as much as you like, but they don't like wasting food and ask for a contribution. Ordering is done via your phone.

Very originally decorated! Great value for money. The food was tasty and there was no time pressure. Just lovely dining :-)

From the moment we stepped inside, it felt like we were briefly transported back to my grandma's cozy living room. That warm, snug atmosphere makes you feel immediately welcome and at ease; truly a place you love to enter and love to stay. The food was delicious and prepared with care. To be honest, it would sometimes have been just a little nicer if the dishes had been served to each table at the same time, but that absolutely did not detract from the quality and taste of the dishes. What makes this place truly special is the friendly, helpful staff. They ensure you feel seen and contribute to the relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. We therefore highly recommend De Rode Kater in Beilen! What a lovely place, with delicious food and a great ambiance. We will definitely be back here again. And thanks for the salmiak lollies, a delicious and surprising ending 😉

A waste of money! Not tasty, cold meat smothered in sauce. Even the baguette with herb butter wasn't really good; how do you manage that? Just like the Hertog Jan beer, it had a weird taste. We are never going here again; we walked out after round 2 because you just eat with great reluctance.

We really didn't like it; after the second round, we left the restaurant. We ordered meat twice, both cold, tasteless, and overloaded with sauce. We won't be coming back; you're better off spending your money at Lacubanita.

Parking is a bit tricky. The staff is really great! The food is okay.

Super cozy, delicious food and drinks. Really tasty iced coffee! 🤗 What a wonderful way to enjoy a cozy, quiet, and casual meal! Nice staff, very friendly and hospitable. We will definitely be back!

It was our first time. From the outside, it looks a bit like a football canteen, but once inside, you feel like you've stepped back in time. The decor is very atmospheric. The explanation of the system (it works with a QR code; you order using your own phone) was friendly and clear. The food was excellent, and there was a wide selection of meat, fish, and vegetarian options. You order small portions each time, so you can sample many different dishes. The service was friendly and efficient. We will definitely be back.

Good, friendly service. Good and tasty food. And a good, nice atmosphere. The decor is also nice and cozy.

We had delicious tapas in a cozy restaurant. The entrance on the side street doesn't look inviting, but behind the door, it is warmly and comfortably furnished. We had a fun and surprising evening.

Nice concept in a unique setting. An atmospheric interior doesn't have to be slick or contrived. The food was fine, though some tapas could use a bit more attention regarding flavor. To keep guests coming back, it is important to keep adding different tapas. My gut feeling tells me that isn't happening, because everything is listed on a placemat. There is little you can do to change that. Once again, the evening was a great success, partly due to the friendly service.

Had a delicious meal! Plenty of variety on the menu, nice vintage decor, and friendly staff!

Had a delicious meal, really nice with all those old-fashioned items. Very cozy! Highly recommended!!

First impression was oh dear, where have we ended up, but once inside, we were amazed by the great service and delicious food.

Enjoyed a delicious meal in this warm and atmospheric restaurant. "Burgundian enjoyment" is on the menu, and that's exactly what it is.

Good food, but unfortunately, it took a very long time between courses. At least 30/40 minutes for two dishes. We left after 2.5 hours. Not because we were done eating, but because it took far too long for us. Such a shame.

The service was excellent and friendly, but it was very busy, so we had to wait a long time between rounds of tapas. The food was cold. The kitchen could use some more organization and collaboration so everyone could eat at the same table.

Friendly service, delicious food, pleasant atmosphere

A cozy restaurant with a huge selection. Everything was nice and hot and delicious. However, the wait was sometimes a bit long, so we ordered a second round, and it arrived simultaneously. We also sat in the middle of the aisle, near the cash register, which wasn't ideal, but the food definitely made up for it.

The food tastes great. Some dishes would be even better with a warmer temperature. The sauces aren't always right for the dishes I ordered, but they were still delicious. Good portions. It's interesting that the pork belly (ordered twice) looked very different both times and also varied considerably in temperature. If you're early in the evening, the soup is definitely not hot yet (just lukewarm). Very nice staff 👍🏼 And also very friendly and knowledgeable. Despite the crowd, we always saw a smile and heard a friendly tone. Perfect.

Excellent food, nice interior. Friendly service. Highly recommended to dine here.

It took ages to get our food each round, which I found really annoying. It took way too long, and you could only choose two dishes per round. (Most were so small that I finished them in one bite.) The food wasn't good at all. For example, the German steak was a dry little hamburger with overly strong spices and way too much salt! All in all, we give it a 4.

We've been vacationing in the Beilen area for years, but through chatgpt, we stumbled upon De Rooie Kater, having never been before. We made a reservation for Valentine's Day and had a delicious meal with the four of us (two adults and two children). It's a charming place, and the staff are very friendly. The food was excellent, and the pace between courses was just right (an achievement considering the place was practically full). We'll definitely be back!

I've been here several times, and every time the food is delicious and the decor is very cozy! We got a lovely spot by the window over Christmas, and everything was in a beautiful Christmas spirit then too! I've made another reservation so I can proudly show my children what a delicious menu you have!

What an absolute disaster. I had higher expectations for a restaurant positioned in the center of Beilen, but this was truly subpar. First of all, the service: a collection of children who were clearly just out of high school and had never held a tray in their lives. The "waitress" who served us could barely have been 16, constantly looked scared, forgot half the order, brought the wrong dishes, and spilled drinks on the table twice (without an apology, just walked on as if nothing had happened). Answering questions? No way. "Do you know if today's fish is fresh?" – shrug and "Uh, I think so." That level. The rest of the staff wasn't much older; boys and girls who weren't dry behind the ears yet, constantly getting in the way, whispering and laughing with each other while the tables remained covered in dirty plates. It felt like I'd ended up in a school cafeteria instead of a restaurant. The food wasn't much better: a dry steak that had clearly been sitting out too long, cold fries, limp vegetables, and a "homemade" sauce that came straight from an Albert Heijn jar. For those prices, you'd expect at least decent food, but this was canteen-level fare at Michelin-star prices. The atmosphere? Loud, messy, and uninviting. Tables weren't cleaned, glassware was greasy, and the restroom... let's just say I wouldn't dare go in there again. In short: stay far away. If you're looking for an evening of frustration, inexperienced teenagers pretending to work in a restaurant, and mediocre food for way too much money, then by all means go. Otherwise: drive on, there's absolutely nothing to be had at De Rooie Kater.

The atmosphere is pleasant, not too crowded, and you can truly enjoy dining out. Ordering is smooth and you can control the speed of the appetizers via your mobile phone. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, especially now that it's December. The only downside is that some dishes, when labeled spicy, are a bit spicy. It's not really noticeable. Otherwise, the three of us really enjoyed ourselves, and the service was excellent all evening.

Delicious food, well-prepared dishes, varied menu, great atmosphere, fast and friendly service. Excellent value for money. We'd love to come back.

The small plates concept is great! There's a lot of choice, so you can really enjoy a variety of dishes. Ordering with the code is also easy, and it was served quickly. Friendly staff, and we had a lovely evening. 🤩

Cozy restaurant with good service. The food is overpriced for what you get. Many dishes had chili sauce poured over them, otherwise they lacked flavor. Desserts and drinks were an added cost. Tip for the owner: invest in a skilled chef.

The food was good, but with a bit more finesse, the quality would improve. On a quiet evening, you can enjoy the dish without having to prepare it in advance. Cozy interior, good service, and definitely worth a return visit. It's good, but it could be better.

Nicely decorated restaurant, friendly and helpful service, but the food is actually quite unremarkable. The kitchen staff seems incredibly afraid of spices. The tomato sauce on the meatballs tasted like cheap canned tomato soup, everything that's supposed to be spicy came with sweet chili sauce (even on the salad, oddly enough), and the caprese was carefully omitted from everything that might actually make it tasty (basil, olive oil, salt). The corn was bland, the shrimp, almost everything, really. The fries and desserts were good, but all in all, I thought it was very expensive for what you got. For that price, you expect them to put a little effort into adding some flavor.

Unfriendly service Your food is served with a thick layer of sauce, which should have made it dry, but fails...

Wonderfully cozy establishment. Friendly. Fast service. Surprising menu. Delicious tapas. Plenty of time.

Delicious tapas, very friendly service. Nice concept.

In a word, fantastic. The four of us friends enjoyed a relaxing and enjoyable evening. It felt like home, but here, the snacks and drinks were provided by your very friendly staff.

The food was good quality, and the concept was fun with various tapas like carpaccio, oriental chicken, and so on. The owner was friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended!

Very nice atmosphere, all kinds of old things from grandma's shed. Friendly staff. Food very good and extensive.

Unfortunately, the first time was a very bad experience. I've been there a second time now, and thankfully everything went well this time. The food tasted great too.

Delicious food, excellent service. Great service, we'll definitely be back. A 10 from us👌 Best regards, D&P

An accessible restaurant. Ideal for guests with children (or picky eaters). Simple and delicious (tapas/small) dishes. The service is very friendly and they respond well to feedback. Definitely worth a try.

Cozy and atmospheric environment to eat. In consultation with staff and chef there are sufficient possibilities to eat with dietary requirements.

We had a super fun evening and a delicious meal! The service was fast and friendly. What is also really nice is that you have no time limit, so you can sit for a long time and just continue ordering. Definitely worth repeating!

Tonight I had dinner here with a friend. The waitress was a nice lady. In addition, the food was very tasty and nicely presented! The young boy who works in the kitchen also brought the food and almost dropped the container of mayonnaise, but that can happen to the best of us. Furthermore, the atmosphere was great and the food was there very quickly. We enjoyed it and will definitely come back again!

Had tapas here yesterday. The service was very young and inexperienced. The food was not tasty and dry. Also, almost everything we ordered came with a thick layer of Chili or flame sauce. Because some tapas were drowned in the sauce and therefore could not be eaten, we were charged 2 euros per leftover piece. Furthermore, the restaurant is very nicely decorated. And the atmosphere was good. We had to pay almost 100,- for 2 people and with 1x drink and dessert. Unfortunately, for what we got, a general disappointment.

The food is just like the red tomcat enjoying his plate of food. Rolling and satisfied we went home. 🐈. The food was very tasty and the service was good. We enjoyed it and will come back soon (in June😉)

Had a wonderful evening with the wife ❤️

Delicious dishes and friendly staff!

We are already recognized upon entering 🫣☺️ Nice, cozy atmosphere with friendly service. Excellent food, fast service. Everything is possible. The service and kitchen are prepared to do something extra. Something for everyone.

Surprisingly good. Small (tapas) dishes, and of excellent quality.

The tapas concept used is new and they still have a lot to learn. Chicken dishes and pork tenderloin were overcooked and therefore dry. Many non-fresh/non-perishable products, sauces often the same. 1 round of orders never came and it takes a long time before you notice that. I don't think the price/quality ratio is good at almost 50 euros per person.

Great place to have a nice meal. Nice concept.

Very cozy place, good and friendly service and the food is delicious

Delicious tapas. Good atmosphere and nice people. Will definitely come back

Last time it was still a bit chaotic because the concept had just changed, but now we had a delicious meal, and we were not stingy with the salmon... the mustard soup was also delicious.

The restaurant is really nice and cozy. You literally step into grandmother's time. Really great. The service was friendly. The food was tasty, but too simple for us. I'll call it Dutch-style tapas. Some dishes could have been a little warmer.

Great atmosphere, super friendly service.

Sitting there right now! nice spontaneous staff! tapas are really delicious Definitely recommended! If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely come here again!

Concept with Tapas. Very tasty and wide variety.

Cozy restaurant, more than worth it.😊

Ate here with my husband and we really enjoyed it. The tapas tasted excellent and the service was good. The tapas was delivered quickly during the dinner. Normally you would like to see the time between servings increase, but that is certainly not the case here. We recommend eating here.

To be honest, I was disappointed last time. Many dishes were lukewarm when we received them, even though it was very quiet. I also thought it was a small cocktail for what it costs. It's certainly not bad but honestly found this restaurant better in the past. Hopefully the weather improves.

Had a lovely tapas dinner here tonight! Friendly staff, quick service, nice atmosphere and the food was great! We will definitely come back!

Great atmosphere, and playful cozy layout. Deliciously many choices in small quantities brought to your table so you can taste everything. Good service. I would definitely go here again if I'm in the area! Big fat well deserved 5 stars.

Nice place to eat delicious tapas, really worth it, and a cozy atmosphere

Beautiful restaurant, beautifully decorated and beautiful background ambiance. Food was very good and staff very friendly.
