Restaurant Chardonnay in Wijk 03 Achterveld

Excellent value for money, friendly service, very attentive

Had a very good meal at Ter Beek, worth repeating.

An all-you-can-eat concept, but in the higher quality class. Delicious food brought to everyone at the table at the same time. Beautifully presented plates. Dessert is served buffet style.

The food was delicious! I have been to Bordeaux in Naarden before, which follows the same concept and where we had a great evening. However, I found the ordering process there a bit less pleasant. You order by passing your dish on a piece of paper. Upon arrival, there was no working pen; it was supposed to be replaced, but it never came. We had to ask for it again ourselves after 20 minutes. After filling out our order, the person who handed us the pen—who was still standing at our table—did not take our order with them. Several colleagues walked past or asked for drinks but also left the pen behind. Later in the evening, things went a bit smoother, and we had a fine evening otherwise, although I do find the decor of the building in Naarden just a bit more atmospheric than Chardonnay.

Had another delicious meal at Chardonnay, this time with 11 of us! The staff was friendly. The food was delicious and the restaurant looks great, as it usually does. Made a small mistake once when the wine was taken off the table, but this was immediately resolved with a new bottle. Very professional and a solid 5 stars! Thanks Chardonnay, until next time. Flip's tip: Try the red Riesling wine. 🙋🏻‍♀️ It is delicious!

Tasty food, varied dishes, fast service, nice atmosphere

Beautiful, chic place. Friendly and helpful service. We opted for the all-you-can-eat concept and enjoyed it very much. The food was delicious!

Beautiful location, polite staff, and great food!

This was our third time there. It has gone downhill. The food was lukewarm to cold and several dishes were prepared in a different, inferior way. Unfortunately... we won't be returning for a while.

The quality of the food is good; there is nothing negative to say about that. But the manager suffered considerably from arrogance. The owner was a bit smooth and socially agreeable. I didn't find the manager suitable. We come here often with a reservation in my partner's name. His birthday was also a disappointment here. Slow service and waiters who didn't speak Dutch well. Due to the language barrier, there was a miscommunication resulting in us receiving compensation. The compensation ultimately consisted of a free cup of coffee; we paid 18 euros too much last time. The manager felt that it was generously compensated, since the red fruit in the glass of champagne wasn't charged for last time. Renting out the entire venue for 15 people, we do expect somewhat better compensation and service.

We thoroughly enjoyed the food. And the family. Even though the place was packed, we didn't bother each other. However, the menu could add a new dish a bit more often. It has been the same for several years now.

Food is decently good. Service was great. Wine was very good too.

We had a lovely evening, it was just a bit too chilly towards the end of the evening with the air conditioning on. Perhaps something to keep in mind

Had a delicious meal! Cozy and luxuriously decorated

Excellent value for money! Neat decor, prompt service, and mostly delicious dishes. Good hot plates, extensive menu selection, fine fries, and an abundant dessert buffet. Only the lobster soup was definitely not creamy but watery, and the beef tenderloin tips were slightly overcooked. The rest was perfectly fine!

The restaurant has an all-you-can-eat concept, but the food is brought to the table, the plates are beautifully presented, and the dishes are unique. Despite their young age, the staff is very attentive and ensures that you have a pleasant evening.

We had a delicious meal; it was our first time here. For an all-you-can-eat, it is more luxurious than average, but also more expensive than average. In terms of concept, it is somewhat comparable to 't Zusje, but of better quality. The tuna and eel, in particular, were truly delicious. The way the food is served gives you the impression that you are in a real culinary restaurant and not an all-you-can-eat. This makes it more of an experience than many restaurants. The flavor combinations of the dishes are well-balanced. You are allowed to order one dish at a time, which is fine in itself, but it sometimes takes a while before you receive the dish and can order again. We were there at 5:30 PM and continued ordering until the kitchen closed at 9:30 PM. Sometimes there was easily a 20-minute gap between orders, from the moment the order was taken. That is a bit long when you are allowed to order one dish at a time and are only served again once you have finished it. And this was on a quiet Monday. The service was super friendly. It creates a good atmosphere. We had ordered a Sherry, had asked which one it was, but when ordering a second one, it turned out to be a more expensive one. So he had indeed asked afterwards, but it is just a shame that it was more expensive than expected. A mistake shouldn't be to the guest's disadvantage, even if it only involves a few euros on the total bill. Generally speaking for the Netherlands, ridiculous prices for table water, especially when they are self-filled bottles and you order regular drinks alongside them. They could also take inspiration from France, where it is simply part of the experience. All in all, we had a delicious meal, top quality with a few minor points to make it absolutely perfect.

We had a tasty meal, and the staff was friendly. It is a cozy restaurant to sit in, although the spot where we sat was a bit noisy. But we would love to come back! We found the dessert a bit disappointing, though; it looked like a dessert from a cheap all-you-can-eat restaurant with a self-service buffet.

Atmospheric, delicious food, excellent service

Super fun all-you-can-eat concept. Table service, good food, small dishes, lots of choice. Also many gluten-free and vegetarian options. Dessert is served buffet style. Definitely recommended.

The food is prepared with great care and is very tasty. Very friendly staff.

What a lovely place! I had a delicious meal at Chardonnay in Leusden last week and I was really pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere in the restaurant is warm and cozy, making you feel welcome immediately. The menu offers a nice variety of dishes. Everything served was fresh, prepared with care, and full of flavor. The presentation was also beautiful. As for the service, nothing but praise: very friendly, attentive, and quick, without feeling rushed. It is truly the kind of restaurant you go to to casually enjoy good food and a lovely evening out. I will definitely be back here soon. Rating: 9 / 10 — Highly recommended if you are in (or near) Leusden! Something did go wrong with the order for a moment: our dishes were swapped with those of another table (no one knew exactly which ones!). But what we were eventually served was very well received. A pleasant surprise!

The food was okay, nothing special on the menu. Additionally, my daughter got sick; she ate practically nothing. But no one asked about it, nor did they give us a discount because we went home early.

It is an all-you-can-eat concept, but of a high standard. Neatly set tables, very friendly and knowledgeable service, and a pleasant atmosphere. Worth a repeat visit.

Extremely friendly staff; despite the many visitors, it doesn't feel crowded. Dishes are served quickly and courteously. And 10 points for the presentation—a feast for the eyes. Many different plates, truly a work of art. I didn't find everything equally tasty, but that is of course a matter of personal taste. The winner of the evening for me was the goat cheese with raspberry mousse, halved grapes, and arugula salad. What a treat for the taste buds. We easily spent a wonderful 3 hours there. It is quite pricey, but for an "all-inclusive" concept (excluding drinks), it's a winner.

The food is delicious but not cheap. Definitely reserve in advance. Food is served.

A gem in Gelderland. Luxury, hospitality, and delicious food in a beautiful wooded setting, and all for an all-inclusive price. Yes, it still exists!!

Beautiful restaurant and what lovely, tables set with a real white tablecloth. The food was also just right. Good portions and the flavors were fine.

Great restaurant, had a good meal. Very friendly staff. Felt welcome immediately! Great dessert buffet.

Nice concept with delicious food. Friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere.

Just stopped by for coffee, on a special trip. It was simply well taken care of, and a very beautiful terrace.

Nice restaurant, ample parking. Friendly staff and fast service!

Excellent tapas menu and of excellent quality. The dishes were prepared with care and looked great as well. The service was very attentive, quick, and careful despite the crowds. The restaurant has a very luxurious appearance and there is ample parking. Top restaurant and highly recommended.

I find the portions too big. Otherwise tasty. The dessert buffet is delicious.

Very neat and beautiful surroundings

Delicious food. Good ambiance. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves with the family.

Our favorite restaurant. This chain has multiple restaurants, but Chardonnay remains the absolute highlight. Not suitable for children under 8 years old.

Excellent staff! Recommended for larger groups. Personally, I would not choose this location for a private dinner.

What an experience! First time here!! The food was incredibly delicious!! Not only that, this young lady named Ebby made this whole experience 10 times better by giving us super service! My sincere compliments!! Coming more often

One or two dishes per person at a time. The food is very tasty.

Simply good, very beautiful chic renovation.

The food was surprisingly tasty; I felt like I could taste the quality. The service was very friendly but a bit slow, and few drinks were offered. I got the impression they were busy. Overall, I was positively surprised by the food!

Delicious all-you-can-eat. Portions not too large, beautifully presented. Cozy spaces. Table service, so no walking around yourself. Plenty of time to catch up. Although drinks are included, the staff didn't often come to ask on their own if you wanted another drink.

Highly recommended for a nice meal; I go there regularly, everything is fantastic.

Delicious food, fast service. Everything is very neat and tidy, and the view is lovely and rural. No rush at all; my friend and I sat at the table and ate for 3 hours. Super value for money!!

We enjoyed the delicious dishes. Friendly staff and a lovely place!

Last night, we had a very different dining experience at Restaurant Chardonnay in the Netherlands. The ambiance draws you in as soon as you enter. The modern design, calm energy, and the way they integrate technology into the experience are truly impressive. The robotic service vehicles moving between tables and carrying plates add a unique atmosphere. The staff are extremely professional and friendly. Even if you're experiencing the system for the first time, they'll come to your table and explain the ordering process in detail. You place your orders using cards left on the table, and the restaurant's system is entirely based on "unlimited experience." You can order as many hot and cold dishes as there are people in your party. Alcoholic beverages are extra, while other drinks are included in the concept. The menu is truly extensive. It has a very rich selection, ranging from sushi to Japanese eel, duck to various red meat dishes. Each dish makes you want to try the next one. Frankly, we were full, but our eyes weren't satisfied either. I would definitely recommend it for anyone wanting a different, technological, and enjoyable dinner experience. It costs approximately 55 Euros per person, with alcoholic drinks extra. We are already planning to go again.

Nice dinner, good and fast service

Excellent, very varied menu. A sort of fancy all-you-can-eat formula with unusual small dishes based on Asian cuisine. Highly recommended!

Actually, I would like to give a 4.5. The atmosphere is very good. The dishes are nicely presented. Most all-you-can-eat restaurants use baking soda to tenderize the meat. This gives a strange aftertaste and the meat flavor disappears. Fortunately, they don't do that here! Definitely worth a repeat visit.

Beautiful restaurant, full of atmosphere. Friendly service, good explanation for ordering one dish per round; for dishes like fries, you can order more often. Delicious dishes, especially if you make your own choice or follow the staff's advice. Extensive dessert buffet, something for everyone. Worth eating here at least once. H.T

Delicious food, good service, and a nice atmosphere were definitely present. I thoroughly enjoyed the food, particularly the meat dishes. Chardonnay operates on an all-you-can-eat system, ensuring you always leave feeling full. The restaurant has an above-average price (fixed bill + drinks), but this is certainly reflected in the high quality of the food. I have been here several times already and haven't had a single bad experience. I certainly hope to return.

Beautiful, fast, and tasty dishes! I look forward to discovering the new menu again. The dessert buffet appeals to me less.

The food is fine. Good dishes and quite varied. The taste and quality are very good. The price-quality ratio is just about right, but it is reasonably pricey on weekends. The price of the water is a negative point!! That is far too expensive. €5.50 for 75cl of generic water is simply unacceptable. Especially when you consider that you already pay €52.50 p.p. for food on weekends.

We really enjoyed the dinner and the cozy atmosphere! Delicious dishes to choose from, plenty of choice! We found the staff very friendly, so we highly recommend it.

The food was okay, sometimes lukewarm and I even received a cold dish once. Because it all took quite a long time, I just ate it all. It was also very busy. It's a shame that you still have to queue for a buffet dessert.

I had ordered Black Angus sirloin and specified that it needed to be well-done, but it was still red inside. And sole fillet was on the menu, but once served it wasn't sole, but probably pangasius fillet (and that has no taste). And on the internet, pork tenderloin was on the menu, but in the restaurant, asparagus was on the menu in that spot.

It costs a bit, but it's worth it. Delicious food, every bite was well prepared and flavorful, beautifully presented. A very wide selection of desserts. Super fun and friendly young staff. Good service. Lovely ambiance. Atmospheric; even though there are a lot of people, you don't notice it thanks to the layout. Those little robots driving around are also a nice touch. Truly top-notch. We will definitely be back.

Had a delicious meal, what an atmosphere, highly recommended, top class 🤝

Very nice place, incredibly good food, and service is top-notch! Perhaps they should build a slightly larger wine list for a restaurant named after a wine grape.

I don't find the food particularly special. Standard tapas buffet. Not always warm.

Delicious dishes that came out nice and fast. The little robot is a cute sight.

Very nice, delicious, friendly service, good seating, dishes are presented like a party

The food is good, there is nothing wrong with it. Unfortunately, our car had been broken into upon our return. Apparently, that happens quite often, and the report about it was received very nonchalantly.

We were extremely satisfied with the whole experience. The food was excellent across the board – honestly, everything we ordered was delicious, and the same goes for the rest of our table. A standout dish was definitely the salmon with hollandaise sauce, which was exceptional. Some of the desserts were also surprisingly good and worth trying. The ordering system was simple, using paper, which worked well and kept things straightforward. The atmosphere of the restaurant was luxurious, clean, and calm – a really pleasant place to spend a few hours enjoying food without feeling rushed. Service was friendly and professional. It was slightly slower at times when bringing out dishes, but it didn’t bother us much – if anything, it gave us more time to enjoy the experience and eat even more. Considering the quality and variety of food, the price-to-value ratio is absolutely worth it. Overall, a fantastic experience and we would definitely come back!

Nice restaurant concept, delicious food beautifully presented, and fast service. However, quite pricey, especially the drinks.

We reserved for 10 people and apparently they can't handle it. We sat inside for 4 hours for 3 rounds of food. Eating took an average of 1.5 hours per round, the food was cold, and dishes were regularly forgotten. They focused solely on drinks, which they came to ask every 15 minutes if anyone wanted another. Wine glasses were literally poured in 2 sips (below the line) because that's how it's supposed to be 🥲 said the intern... Glasses of water that smelled like a dirty dishwasher with fish swimming in it, spoke to 6 different waitresses during the evening and received no solution, just a manager who sometimes walked past pretending to be observant, but never came to the table. At one point, half the table left because it was taking so long, and eventually, when paying the bill, we got into a conversation with the manager who disagreed with our complaint and only wanted to offer "1 coffee" as compensation 😂.. €200 wasted for 4 people.. the manager claimed that we had given compliments, and that more than so many cold and hot dishes had been served.. yeah right. Koekkoeki… Conclusion: DO NOT GO HERE, RUDE MANAGER AND STAFF. DEFINITELY NOT WORTH €50 PP! Many bad reviews to read with the same problems!!!

Super! Excellent quality, friendly staff, and fast service. We will definitely be back.

I've been there in previous years and experienced a warm atmosphere. That's why I chose to go today for a birthday. It felt like a huge disappointment, like being rushed through, bordering on arrogance. A long wait just to be able to order. No interest, arrogant waitress. I remained friendly throughout, but the hospitality, which was completely lacking to the core, was the deciding factor. Eventually, I gave feedback at the bar and asked if we could please have our coffee so we could leave. When paying, they didn't even ask how we had enjoyed it. Wow, really wow, last time here.

The food was delicious and the service very friendly.

Cozy restaurant with a luxurious feel. The food is delicious and the service is very friendly. Ordering one dish, finishing it, and then ordering again is just a bit more sociable than stuffing yourself right away. Highly recommended!

We've been a few times now and every single time it's a fantastic evening! Very friendly and welcoming staff. Tasty food, nice menu, good portions, and beautifully presented! We personally find the dessert buffet a bit underwhelming, but tastes differ 😉. The ice cream, however, tasted really good this time!

We went out for dinner with 10 people. We had our own private room, which made it very cozy. The service was excellent and the food was of good quality.

Had a great evening, enjoyed the food, a nice menu, and very good service. However, windows were smashed and everything turned upside down in several cars in the parking lot, and apparently that happens often.

Very friendly staff. Nice ambiance. And the food was delicious.

First of all, the food is delicious. You can order one small dish per course, and that is unlimited. French cuisine with an Eastern twist. Good portions, so you can really fill yourself up. They use robots; staff clear the plates. The robots do occasionally bring out the wrong plates. For such a large eatery, it is atmospherically decorated with good acoustics and neatly maintained in terms of interior design, with clean toilets and a tidy parking lot surrounded by beautiful greenery. There is less choice for vegetarians. Absolutely recommended and top-notch in the all-you-can-eat concept!

Super delicious, super service and very discreet.

Despite being large, the decor makes it cozy. Food and service are very good. The dessert buffet is extensive, but there is a lot of the same.

The food was good, but the service could have been much better. The fireplace was set very high, making it feel like a sauna. When we asked if it could be turned down, the answer was no. A little later, someone fainted, and suddenly it was possible to turn the fireplace down. Very disappointing, especially when the heat is really unpleasantly high.

Had a delicious meal, as much as you can handle! All dishes prepared and served with care. The different rooms create a more intimate atmosphere. Very friendly staff! Lower prices Monday through Thursday. Highly recommended!

Evening out with colleagues, it was pleasantly busy. Unlimited food and drinks for 55 euros. Plenty of free parking. Every car. Parking available. Clean restrooms. Plenty of choice on the menu for 8 rounds and a well-filled dessert. Recommended.

A different experience than an "all you can eat" restaurant. Much more focused on a relaxed and delicious meal than on a large, quick meal. Good service, nice atmosphere.

We had a delicious meal and chose a lovely wine to go with it. Unfortunately, at one point we had to wait a really long time for a dish, but that was a mistake, and things went more smoothly afterward. It's nice that the various "rooms" and corners make you forget how big and crowded it is. For a restaurant with such a large capacity, the quality of the food is surprisingly good! We will definitely be back 😊

Delicious food. Plates beautifully presented! Excellent service and cozy atmosphere. I'd love to come back!

A fantastic restaurant. Huge location, yet it feels intimate. It's an all-you-can-eat concept, but you never feel like it's a "food shack," and the food is truly high quality. The wines are excellent, and the plates are all truly beautiful. My favorites were the oysters, scallops, and pork belly. Truly delicious! The service is fast. Definitely recommended.

Our favorite restaurant for years. Good food and a nice atmosphere.

We had a party. And the food was good too.

Very good food and a clean restaurant with staff who still know how to serve! It's a shame the music was a bit too loud and they wouldn't turn it down.

There were 12 of us and we had a great meal, but the way we were chased away was rude. We had a 3.5-hour package. The last round was recorded and served at the time we were supposed to leave. Ten minutes later, we were told that if we stayed any longer, we would have to pay extra for all 12 people, meaning there was no chance to leisurely drink our coffee, tea, or wine. We found this very disappointing. It was the end of the evening, so our table wasn't reserved for another group. Because we felt so chased away, we didn't even finish our drinks. I understand that with a package, you have to pay extra to extend it. But not even getting the chance to finish the drinks we had just received is a real shame, and I find this very unprofessional for a company like Chardonnay.

• The cold dishes were lukewarm and the hot food was unfortunately not really hot either.

Chic location, great service and fantastic food.

What a fantastic restaurant this is. An all-you-can-eat concept with a different twist. There's truly something for everyone on the menu.

We think the price for a child is on the high side - what does a child eat...

I think it's the "older" sibling of Restaurant Bordeaux in Naarden (Naarderbos), but the same "all you can eat" principle applies here, and it was high time to post a review, as it's been a year since I organized a successful dinner party (just like recently in Bordeaux). And the evening was absolutely successful in every respect. I'm not (anymore) a big eater and had to pass on six plates, but even those six were more than worth the price. The ladies continued for a while, but I think they had already been fasting for a few days. In short, a great restaurant with excellent service and a nearly endless selection of culinary delights, from meat and fish to shellfish and vegetarian. Flavorful and fresh. A beautiful view over the Leusden meadows and plains (and I didn't see a wolf then). (English version): This unique "all you can eat" concept was a great surprise for me. I knew it from some Chinese restaurants, but hadn't experienced it in the French-fusion-international cuisine. What a relaxed and luxurious setting in the countryside near Leusden (province of Utrecht). Great service, big smiles even the robot cars have a smile! When in the 'neighbourhood' do it..you won't be dissapointed and will be a highlight from your visit to The Netherlands.

All-you-can-eat at a high level! Highly recommended.

Warm welcome Great service Perfect food Fantastic dessert buffet

Great all-you-can-eat restaurant. We loved the tuna the most. The service was very friendly and fast. The robots bring the food, and the waiters then neatly place it on the table. The food was fine, but not outstanding. Sometimes a bit bland in flavor. The dessert buffet is a bit of everything, including ice cream, small pastries, a chocolate fountain with fresh strawberries, and candies.

Another delicious meal. Service was superb!

Nice restaurant with a different atmosphere than the standard all-you-can-eat concept restaurants. The staff is friendly. The food is beautifully presented and delicious. We were with a large group, and they offer a drinks package. This is nice, but it's annoying having to work with a single order form for such a large group (12 people).

Just a different way of all you can eat, now with style and every time a culinary highlight, my compliments, I enjoyed it thanks
