Restaurant BOSQ in Wijk 00 Het Oude Land en duingebied

The food gets an absolute 10. We had an incredibly delicious meal here. Both the appetizer tasting and the various main courses were spot on. Well-seasoned and delicious combinations. A reason to come back again. The service, however, was a bit inconsistent. Initially, we were served by a lady who knows her trade incredibly well. But in between, we were also served by various colleagues, and that experience was less pleasant. For example, my partner (husband) was asked if he wanted another beer, while I (wife) was drinking one. When I subsequently indicated this and said I did want another one, I never received it. Another notable situation was that the wait staff wanted to clear our table while we hadn't finished our appetizers yet. When we said we wanted to take our time, we were told 'we don't like full tables here,' and yet they took away all sorts of things. There were a few other small, unusual incidents like that that made us feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Great food, great wines, fairly priced. Every dish makes you look forward to the next… the same goes for the wine. The same high standard as a Michelin-starred restaurant, but much more relaxed, even with small children.

We very much enjoyed the food here. We also loved the service in the beginning because it was friendly and attentive. They were accommodating with dietary preferences like vegetarian and other wishes which we very much liked. The terrace is nice and very quiet. If you like the quiet nature it’s great for you. Unfortunately the time between each course was too long for us. It felt like after the second course they simply forgot about us. Also no apology or anything. Maybe the time in between courses here is normal. For us personally it was too long in between. I don’t want to wait 40 min for the next plate..

Had a delicious meal. Afterwards, our Uber didn't come, so the owner took us back. Come straight to this place!!

BOSQ was the highlights of our trip. The food was absolutely incredible, and the entire evening felt like a truly special experience. My wife chose the five-course vegetarian menu, and every dish was thoughtful, creative, and packed with flavor. It never felt like a compromise or a simplified version of another dish. The staff was really kind and paid attention to her preferences when preparing the surprise menu. I ended up selecting the classic menu. Every course was beautifully presented and delicious. It made for such a fun and memorable dining experience. We visited to celebrate a special anniversary, and the staff made the evening go super smoothly. They were genuinely kind, attentive, and welcoming, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The wine pairings were excellent and complemented the dinner perfectly. The restaurant has a wonderfully romantic atmosphere, making it the perfect place for a romantic dinner. We left thoroughly impressed and would happily return. The chef is incredibly nice and told us a bit about his history. He has grown up on the island but truly makes a ton of effort to breathe a ton of flavor into the local ingredients. I don't believe there is anything else quite like it on Texel! Highly recommended.

Yesterday, we had the pleasure of dining at BOSQ for the third time. The dishes were once again meticulously prepared and refined with great expertise, resulting in something truly special. We love this perfect variety. The price is absolutely justified. The wine pairings are so well-chosen; every drop is a delight. The icing on the cake is the exceptional competence of the staff. They are charming and witty, and their words come from the heart. I enjoy a good chat, perhaps sometimes a little too much. But even that they take with a twinkle in their eyes. Thank you to the owner, the staff, and a big thank you to the kitchen. See you on December 31st!

Our first time on Texel, we had a delicious meal, compliments to the chef and the staff. We will definitely be back next year, highly recommended if you want to enjoy good food.

We had a delicious meal at Bosq on Texel! When we asked the staff afterwards if they would order a taxi for us, the owner was personally willing to take us back to Landal Sluftervallei. What service!

We were two people with our dog. We had a five-course meal. We were absolutely thrilled. Everything at BOSQ was perfect. We can wholeheartedly recommend it. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience at your restaurant.

A very nice place, very good food and equally good service. We love coming here!

A visit to BOSQ was a true feast for the senses! Every dish was a delight not only in taste but also in perfect presentation. From fresh oysters, to perfectly crispy croquettes, to exquisite appetizers with cured ham – everything was meticulously crafted down to the smallest detail. Huge kudos to the chef for his creativity and ability to combine flavors. Every bite was brimming with quality, freshness, and passion for cooking. Top-quality ingredients, exquisite compositions, and aesthetically pleasing serving make the food here memorable. Add to that the great atmosphere, professional service, and beautiful location perfectly complement the entire experience. BOSQ is a restaurant you'll want to return to and one we can wholeheartedly recommend to any lover of exceptional cuisine. Definitely one of the best culinary experiences we've ever had. We can't wait for our next visit!

Had a wonderful evening! Very friendly service with good knowledge. The sommelier was clearly knowledgeable. The dishes were delicious! Highly recommended.

Great spot right in the middle of the countryside. Inventive cuisine and pleasant service.

Excellent restaurant. Attentive and friendly service! The food is very creative and a sophisticated culinary experience. The open wine pairs perfectly with the meal. Beautiful, modern yet cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended!

There are many restaurants where you can eat well. There are fewer restaurants where you can eat exceptionally well, but there are only a few where you can eat exquisitely. BOSQ is one of them. Located in a place where you might not immediately expect it (right by the woods, in the middle of Texel), this atmospheric, high-quality restaurant is situated. They work with seasonal and regional products. Fresh and varied. The platter of various appetizers is highly recommended. What a taste sensation! A continuous assault on the taste buds, yet in such a way that you keep wondering how anyone can conceive and execute it. But the other dishes (including the North Sea crab and the short rib) were also of high class. Don't come here for a cheap quick bite, but take the time to truly savor delicious food.

Amazing evening. Enjoyed the experience menu with paired wines. Everything was perfect.

16-05-2026 Listed in Lekker by Gault&Millau and Michelin. Enjoyed a delicious 4-course lunch.

We had a wonderful evening. You have to be open to the concept. It's either a multi-course set menu or à la carte. If you choose the latter, it's recommended to order two main courses. Why? Because they're relatively small; we each had a starter and a main course. Absolutely sufficient, and there was still room for dessert. If you're expecting all-you-can-eat, this isn't the place for you. But if you're looking for good food with excellent service, this is the place to be!

Had a truly amazing meal. We went for the Bosq Experience. No regrets. Six fantastic courses and delicious accompanying wines. Highly recommended.

A top restaurant with very knowledgeable service. And a very good chef.

What a fantastic restaurant Bosq is. I surprised my boyfriend with a 5-course dinner for his birthday. Friends of ours had recommended Bosq and our expectations were high. And yet, the team managed to exceed those expectations. We had an amazing meal and everything was perfect. Beautiful presentation, surprising flavor combinations, and just right portions. We were equally happy with every dish. We had a wonderful evening, thank you very much!

After Bij Jef, the best restaurant on Texel, beautiful dishes and good value for money.

A fantastic evening with super delicious, refined food and friendly service. According to my husband, the wine pairing was very well balanced with the food. Definitely recommended.

What a delight to eat here. What special and very tasty dishes.

Very nice restaurant, pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff, beautiful setting. Highly recommended!

Food excellent, staff very friendly

Lovely evening, friendly service, super food and wine

Very enthusiastic welcome. We opted for the four-course menu. We received a few extras with it: two amuse-bouches, bread with homemade butter, and a treat with the coffee. Excellent flavor combinations, beautifully presented plates, good wine recommendations. Attentive and friendly service. This restaurant is definitely worth the detour.

This restaurant is truly a hidden gem. What a fantastic discovery. From the outside, you would never suspect that you could eat so well here, but once inside, you are completely surprised. The dishes were exceptional, each and every one, with unique and surprising flavor combinations that were perfectly balanced. We really enjoyed our meal. Additionally, the staff was incredibly friendly and took the time to explain everything clearly and expertly, which made the experience even more pleasant. The parking facilities are also excellently arranged, which makes the visit extra convenient. All in all, a great experience. The only downside is that we only discovered this place at the end of our vacation; otherwise, we would certainly have come back here more often!

Great restaurant for good food on Texel. Had a delicious lunch with extremely friendly service.

Excellent restaurant and top service!

A thoroughly wonderful evening: friendly and attentive staff and a magnificent 5-course menu in a great atmosphere.

We went to BOSQ, owned by Robin, without any expectations. We had a fantastic evening here. The food was delicious, with a very extensive wine list. Robin recommended a unique bottle of Insomnia. The service was refreshing and fantastic; it truly made our evening :) When we return to the island, we will definitely be back!

A truly pleasant surprise. Lots of flavor variety, but without it remaining superficial. A delicious wine from a beautifully comprehensive wine list.

Unexpectedly fantastic! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, excellent chefs! What a taste sensation, combined with being truly pampered. The dishes are unique and special.

As always, a fantastic experience at BOSQ. There were four of us and we chose the four-course menu without looking at the menu beforehand. We were delighted to be surprised. The food is always excellent at Bosq; it's certainly not my first time here and it certainly won't be my last. A fantastic restaurant with superb service.

We had dinner here for Christmas, and it was excellent! The food, the service, and the owner's service!

A beautiful, bright, and elegant restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. The staff are cheerful, clearly enjoy their work, and take their time with each guest. The food was excellent. It was nice to be able to try so many small dishes. I found the pumpkin particularly delicious.

Absolutely gorgeous place. Booked a table for two and didn't regret visiting. Food was excellent and the service was too. Appetizers (kroketjes, pan cristal, ...) were simple & great. For mains we can fully recommend the Entrecôte with duck liver (melts in your mouth) or the ravioli with black truffles... everything we ate was done in a creative way and you can tell it was cooked carefully. Several vegetarian options and they care for special request you may have. Service was attentive and super friendly, asking whether we had questions or allergies. They nailed the sweet spot for asking frequently but not being too annoying. Prices were rather near the upper end but still totally fine for good food with nice ambience. To sum it up: Worth not only one visit!

Delicious, original dishes, beautifully presented. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. Excellent acoustics. Had a pleasant evening with a group of ladies.

Perfect food, very nice dishes.

Fantastic location. Food like you've never tasted before. Highly recommended.

Very tasty lunch, very pleasant place to have such a fantastic lunch

We had reserved a few weeks in advance to dine here on a Saturday evening with a fully vegetarian 6-course menu. What a superb choice. Whereas on Texel, as a vegetarian, you often find a limited number of (often very standard) options at many establishments, this was a breath of fresh air. Daily fresh ingredients, crafted into beautiful dishes. Full of flavor yet balanced, with sufficient nutritional value as well. The fine dining of the future is already a reality here, offering excellent value for money. 12 Gault&Millau points is really too low for this restaurant, which is also very stylishly decorated. With a crew that genuinely takes an interest in you but is never intrusive, this was our best dining experience during a long weekend getaway. Do yourself a favor and go eat here!

Absolutely fantastic! Beautiful combinations in the dishes. Very tasty.

I felt wonderfully welcome and the food was truly a feast!

A nice, good restaurant, the food is delicious. The only downside is that you shouldn't be a big eater to eat here. The portions were quite small.

Excellent food (5-course menu), very pleasant service, and a lovely atmosphere. Tip: some background music (we love it): in our corner, all we could hear was a bass thump.

With (perhaps too) high expectations, we went to Bosq. We started with oysters, dumplings, and tuna tacos, which were all fine, but a bit bland in flavor. Just not quite right. For the main course, we had lamb, pulpo, and Iberico Secreto. These dishes were more flavorful, but we still found the kimchi and crispy potatoes a bit lacking. A shame. The service was very friendly and checked more than once to make sure everything was to our liking. We didn't comment on the food because tastes vary, but for us, something was definitely missing. We also found the main courses a bit meager for the price. Perhaps experiment with a bit more flavor... because the location and staff certainly weren't the problem.

Always a delight! We chose the 4-course menu. It offers a wonderful culinary journey through the restaurant's specialties and is perfectly adequate. To finish, a fantastic dessert wine!

A few days on Texel, and the first evening we enjoyed a lovely meal out... And we did! We had a choice of à la carte or a 4, 5, or 6-course menu. My wife chose the 4-course menu and I chose the 5-course menu because there was a course with sweetbreads, duck liver, and truffle that I couldn't resist... well, it was all really delicious, and the accompanying wines were also very well received. The staff was also very friendly and were able to explain everything clearly, including what was on our plates and in our glasses. Highly recommended.

The two of us had the five-course dinner. It was delicious! I definitely recommend the pairing wines. The atmosphere and service were also very good.

The food was delicious, and the gluten-free options were also wonderful! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to take the time to enjoy a delicious and elegant meal.

The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and we received a lot of explanation. The only downside was that there was a dog in the restaurant, and we had selected dog-free due to allergies.

Very friendly staff who explain everything. The North Sea crabs were delicious, the lobster fritter was good. The Texan lamb from the BBQ was excellent; I almost wished for a double portion. I ordered a side salad with it, which was very pleasant. On the island, you're constantly offered fries, which I swapped for them. The cheesecake is an absolute hit; it has a slight whole-grain touch and a small lemon ice cream scoop hovers on top. The wines by the glass were all delicious, but I would have liked more selection.

Service was excellent. A warm welcome from the hostess. Lunch was personally recorded by the chef, who explained everything clearly and immediately adjusted the menu to our liking. A nice, not too extensive, wine list. A beautiful, rustic yet elegant restaurant. I will definitely return.

Delicious food, very friendly and attentive staff. Highly recommended!

Lovely restaurant situated on the edge of the forest. We had chosen the 5-course dinner with matching wine arrangement. At the start we were spoiled with 2 amuses. They were refined, but for our taste, just like the first course, perhaps a bit too refined, the flavours were very subtle. After that, the dishes came in more and more and the matching wine too! Great flavours. Service extremely friendly and involved. In short, a top evening!

Food was a surprise and a party. The service makes it complete. On the way to a star.

Didn't eat but was there for an event. Very nice

Really had such a delicious meal here, a 6-course dinner with wine arrangement. Nice, relaxed and friendly service. Really everything was delicious. Thanks!

Last Friday we had a fantastic evening here. There is a pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant and the dinner with matching wine arrangement was really delicious! Definitely recommended.

Yet again, to BosQ. And we are certainly not disappointed, on the contrary very surprised. If you want to try something not standard, but also not the most expensive restaurant on the island, I can absolutely recommend BosQ. Surprising dishes, very friendly and not pushy staff, in short, completely top. We will gladly come back here.

We had a wonderful evening with a fantastic dinner

The recommendation of friends to dine at Bosq was excellent advice. Enjoyed an excellent 4-course menu and the recommended wines (Chardonnay Enate 234, Taoba a red Spanish wine). The service was very friendly and attentive. To finish, a great cup of coffee! We will definitely come back here if we visit Texel again.

The food (we chose 5- and 6-course menus) was excellent. The different flavors complemented each other perfectly, and the dishes were beautifully presented. We particularly enjoyed the slightly Asian touch (e.g., wasabi or daikon cress). The ambiance and service were also great. We particularly appreciated the attentiveness to our allergens/intolerances and the availability of a gluten-free version of the menu. We highly recommend this restaurant and would return if we're back on Texel. Truly fantastic, kudos!👌🏻

Delicious food in a very nice atmosphere, lovely attentive service

Worthy of a Michelin star, very well priced for what is offered. Enjoyed

Bosq has a nice atmosphere and very nice staff. The food was tasty and was prepared and served with great care, but we thought it was quite expensive for the type of dishes we received. Everything tasted good but we were not blown away.

This place is trying a bit too hard but failing to nail the essentials. Basically every dish has some sort of foam/mousse. 2 of our dishes were overcooked, a shame!

Had a wonderful evening with great service and the food was excellent! The surprising taste sensations and delicious proposed white wine made our evening a real party. We will definitely come back!

We had lunch at Bosq. Food looks nice, but in terms of taste we thought the dishes lacked depth. Lamb was very tasty

Very hospitable, beautiful products, delicious food. The Bisq was delicious. Oysters also nice and meaty. Nice service

Perfect meal! Good flavor combinations and fresh ingredients!

We enjoyed a very excellent 5-course menu. Rarely have we had such an excellent meal at such a reasonable price. Thanks to the team!

Small setback. Price/quality ratio was wrong. In addition, it is recommended to order at least two to three dishes. Given the portion size, we certainly did not think this was necessary. Staff was friendly but sometimes a bit uncomfortable. Shame!

A pleasure to have a delicious dinner here.

Highly recommended Great service Very good cook

Delicious food, excellent service, very friendly

Absolutely star worthy! Great food, beautifully presented, competent and friendly service, good wines… Thank you for the all-round successful gourmet evening!

Enjoy excellent dishes and excellent service in style in a casual atmosphere and feel pampered!

Very good, both service and food

We had dinner at 4. The restaurant was half full. We had aperitifs then our à la carte meals: starters to share and each a dish (turbot, half lobster, sea bass, etc.). An hour of waiting between our starters and the dishes. The additional dishes arrive even though we have not been cleared of our starter plates. A wait that is difficult to explain, especially for the result on the plate: micro portions (a prawn-sized lobster, and small starter plates, etc.), failed cooking with overcooked fish (too bad for turbot and bar 😔) for dishes at almost €30 per plate. A rather unsuccessful dinner and therefore expensive for the result. Obviously we avoided desserts so as not to leave with a certain wait. Other tables also seemed to be waiting... The waitresses a little absent to avoid having to try to explain the timing. The grades awarded are quite incomprehensible as the promised level is not there. Damage.

The lamb is magnificent! The restaurant truly pays homage to Texel’s iconic lamb meat. Everything is so fresh. You get what you pay for.

Amazing! Not easy to find nice food places like this in NLDs

100 stars would still be too few. Seriously good food. Casual atmosphere. Everything really good. Thank you.

One thing first: Of course we took pictures, but since these do the smallest justice to what we were served here, I'll leave them out. We were given four types of Amus Gueule (appetite stimulant). I chose the 5-course surprise menu and when it came to wine, I followed the house's recommendation. I feel valued and extremely satisfied. The price was reasonable. Since it was my birthday I got another surprise.

BOSQ located on the edge of the forest, perfect location. We sat by the window, nice view. The service was very nice, helpful, good explanation. The food was perfect, delicious and beautifully varied amuses. Served sandwich...delicious with black olive tapenade...oil and garlic butter. We had a 6 course menu... each one was prepared with care! I think the ambiance is a bit old-fashioned...but the music was perfect. Price quality... top 🤓

What a surprise! Beautiful location, fantastic food and, above all, very knowledgeable and friendly staff 🤗 we had the feeling all evening as if we didn't have to say or signal anything, everything was arranged at exactly the right timing. And man was it delicious! Thank you team BOSQ 🧡

Very tasty food, very nice Staff, nice that we were there Greetings uli & Stef.

Very tasty food! Friendly and very attentive service (with humor), delicious flavors and an excellent wine arrangement. Compliments to the chef! All dietary requirements were taken into account and both vegetarian and vegan food is excellent here.

Wow wow wow. I've never had such delicious food before. We had a 5 course dinner and every dish we got was a treat... works of art on your plate almost too beautiful to eat. Staff know what they are talking about, friendly and hospitable. We are sure that we will come back. Really top top top

Wonderful end to the week on Texel. Every dish was surprising because of the combination of flavors. The (4!) appetizers were also particularly tasty. Haut Cuisine! The friendly service and pleasant atmosphere made it a great experience.

Rating for BOSQ, Den Hoorn Texel from the Andreas Braun family: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An evening at BOSQ is not just a culinary experience, but a real sensory explosion! Our family of three people (2 adults and a teenager) immersed themselves in this gastronomic haven on January 28, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. and were treated to a breathtaking feast for the senses from start to finish. The ambience of the BOSQ is a pleasant mix of rustic charm and modern design. The warm colors and tasteful furnishings create an inviting atmosphere that started the evening perfectly. The view of Texel's picturesque landscape rounded off the ambience and made the evening a visual delight. The service staff at BOSQ deserve the highest praise. Friendly, attentive and always professional, the team ensured that we didn't lack for anything. The food and drink recommendations were excellent and made us feel like first class guests. Now to the highlight of the evening: the food. The cuisine at BOSQ is undoubtedly a culinary masterpiece. Every bite was a feast for the taste buds, and the presentation of the dishes was a real work of art. Fresh ingredients, creative combinations and a distinctive taste made the meal an unforgettable experience. The menu offers a variety that will impress even gourmets. Overall, our visit to BOSQ was an absolute highlight of our stay on Texel. If you are looking for a restaurant that not only offers excellent food, but also first-class service and a dream atmosphere, then BOSQ is definitely the right choice. A big thank you to the entire team for this unforgettable evening – we will definitely be back! LG Braun family

We unexpectedly had a delicious meal at Bosq! A weekend away from the crazy world for just the two of you and be gastronomically spoiled at Bosq. The caneles de Bordeaux are better at Bosq than in France! And if you compliment them, you get another one! What a passion for the profession and the service is fantastic. We would love to come back

Background music (Christmas music) can hardly be heard, unfortunately, only the noise of other guests

As enthusiastic gourmets with a preference for fine dinning and Michelin restaurants, we unfortunately have to conclude that our visit to restaurant BOSQ on Texel was a significant disappointment. The flavors of the current menu were clearly not balanced. Both the cauliflower and the scallops were very disappointing. The cauliflower had an unpleasant taste of frying fat, and the scallops lacked the desired taste experience. The duck liver toast was of mediocre quality, and even a vegetable bitterball left a lot to be desired. Although the hamachi was very tasty, this was the only positive aspect of the experience. Overall, our experience was very disappointing.

Great food, great quality for price, one of the best in the Netherlands. The Lamb was the best dish

Echt lekker eten. Zeker een aanrader! De locatie alleen is al super. Gelegen aan de rand van de weilanden en bos. Er is parkeergelegenheid voldoende. Reserveren is wel noodzakelijk als je niet mis wil grijpen. De bediening is super. Het eten waanzinnig. Veel aandacht wordt er aan besteed.

Zeer matig eten. Daarnaast serieus zeer kleine porties voor bizarre prijzen van 17-22 per gang. Website biedt andere verrassingsmenu aan die in restaurant zelf niet aangeboden worden. We vonden het zeer overtrokken. Bediening was ok. Nieuwe ober die nog beetje nerveus was, maar iedereen moet kans krijgen dus heeft geen rol gespeeld in beoordeling. Niet voor herhaling vatbaar.
