Restaurant Zuiver Utrecht in Wijk 09 Leidsche Rijn

Had a lovely lunch...we will definitely be back

My favorite restaurant in the Utrecht Leidsche Rijn area. Always great service, good wines, varied, high-quality and beautifully served dishes. My special love is the white tablecloths on the tables on the terrace 🤩. Very atmospheric - unusual paintings on the walls in the hall will not leave you indifferent. Excellent arrangement of tables, a wall with wine racks behind the bar and good pleasant lighting. Definitely recommend for any occasion.

Great location, next to the highway between Amsterdam and Utrecht. Free parking and charging for electric cars. Great atmosphere, service and food. Special credits to the wonderful and always hospitable Guus!

I hadn't been to Zuiver in Utrecht for a while. Last Friday, I went for dinner again, but unfortunately, it was a bit disappointing. First of all, the service was not very friendly, and a bit messy. They forgot to put down cutlery even though the dish had already been served. The first glass I drank was simply dirty, hadn't been cleaned, and lip prints were still on it. The food, well... the most ordered appetizer in the Netherlands is on the menu, but it's out of stock?!! The alternative, salmon, was also nothing special. The rest of the food from our other table companions wasn't very special either. Such a shame! It's a beautiful restaurant with a great atmosphere, but ultimately, people come for the food. Zuiver is certainly not the cheapest, but the quality was unfortunately completely lacking.

After being so impressed with Zuiver Amersfoort, I also tried Utrecht, and I have to say, it was excellent. A lovely terrace, friendly and attentive service, and a delicious meal.

Buffet?? Too bad. Combo would have been nice but the music in this room (not restaurant) was way too loud. We found everything very mediocre.

Lousy service. Sorry. Now for the 2nd time put on the terrace with bad service. Remains of the snack were not cleared away. Dinner was just put in between. Skipping people with taking orders. The price quality is also not fair. The 2nd time with a few colleagues on the terrace. The drinks came 1 by 1. The first had already finished their beer before the last got their drink. The service was talking about chaos inside. There were only a few guests. This is really a restaurant I will not go to again.

Unfortunately it was a bit disappointing and that is mainly because the service was not really in the mood and the service should have compensated for the lack of love for the food. Because the burrata ball with pesto was fine in itself, but not for 17 euros and the diamond hare of 30 euros was almost well-done (which I think is a shame to send back) with a not very tasty chimichurri. The Panacotta was tasty, but lacked all the other promised garnish and then 15 euros is quite expensive. Every time you had to wait a long time for a drink (unfortunately no pro-active check-in) and it is always a shame that you are served the wine after you have almost finished the dish. And pouring red wine into the same glass where the white wine was previously is still acceptable in a brown café, but not in a restaurant like this. I think the young lady who served us could not do much about it, she should have been trained much better. The location itself is very beautiful, but the total picture is so lacking that I do not dare to go there with guests anymore.

Nice place outside and certainly also inside. Atmosphere therefore a big pass. But a neat glass of wine (content just above the curvature) that was not self-evident. And that is really allowed for 7 euros.

Had a great meal in honor of my birthday. Aperitif, starter, main course, dessert, necessary drinks and coffee. Nothing to complain about. Small note, from a non-fish lover. Maybe add one or two meat dishes. Of the three that were on it, one was already sold out.

Cozy environment, good parking, friendly staff and delicious food. Very good for a business lunch or dinner, but also as a couple, friends or family. Accessible menu. Also nice terrace in the summer.

Delicious food, great service, 4-course surprise menu is highly recommended!

Cozy room to celebrate a party 🥳 or for a wedding 💒

Do you want to be surprised exclusively and very extensively? Zuiver is the name you have to remember. We chose the 5-course dinner and that was a fantastic experience. Outside on the terrace (it was 25 degrees) it was very pleasant. The service is just very nice and patient (which was necessary with us haha). Thanks!!

Unfortunately a bit disappointed. Ambiance and decoration nice, but quality of food was definitely not worth the price. Dishes were lukewarm/cold (too long under the lamp). And I was looking forward to the Pulpo, but it was tough and without sauce so very dry. In general much too expensive for what you get on your plate. Wine was good on the other hand. Service was nice, but did not look around at all so we had to try very hard several times to finally make eye contact. 180€ for 3 people, without dessert, is really too expensive. And you don't pay for the license there either: it is in the middle of an industrial estate.

In a word, EXCELLENT. 👍👍 Top location, friendly and helpful staff and delicious food.

Delicious food, super friendly, nice service. Welcome feeling.

Dear team of Restaurant Zuiver, Thank you very much for your great efforts during our 25th wedding anniversary on May 10, 2025. Everything was taken care of down to the last detail - from the delicious food to the atmospheric decoration and the friendly service. Thanks to you, it became an unforgettable evening for us and our guests. We really felt pampered. Compliments to the entire team - you are the best!

Ordered lemonade, just received the cheapest syrup ever. Way too expensive for the location and service.

Passed over the experience of saying goodbye to an old colleague. Experience so far is that there was ample parking, a beautiful outdoor area and a warm welcome. It looked neat and tidy, I had a cup of coffee and toasted my old colleague, who unfortunately died too young. The service was neatly dressed and very professional and polite.

Bediening en keuken zeer langzaam. Hoofdgerechten redelijk smakeloos. Prijzen wel aanzienlijk. Tip; Deze even overslaan :)

Fantastic food, very friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. Recommended!

Great place for business food, both lunch and dinner. The kind that many people go to Van de Valk for. However, Zuiver is more intimate, cozier, with better food and better service. The accessibility is absolutely fantastic.

Ate here with colleagues. Very good restaurant, good menu, delicious food, great service and good atmosphere! Simply great!

Little gem, food was fantastic.fine dining and nice wine

Had a delicious Easter brunch, thanks!

Great service, delicious food, just good

Delicious food. Even on a Monday evening it is pleasantly busy. As a result, the staff has their "hands full" and may have to wait a little longer. Service is friendly and prices are reasonable.

In an ideal location near the highway in the center of NL. Inside you don't notice the location and it is cozy and atmospheric. Excellent staff create a nice atmosphere, business and private.

The food was fine! Just took a very long time. After 1.5 hours we were still waiting for our starter plates to be removed. That was a shame.

Delicious food, friendly staff. Surprise menu is recommended.

Nice place, good first impression. The food was excellent and prepared with care. The service was not very customer-oriented, comments about the newly painted table that quickly wore out, drawing attention to the fact that you saw a lot of dust-like things on it when the sun fell on it. Expressing surprise that your colleague had not left the glasses for another round of drinks. All a bit clumsy and redundant information as far as we are concerned and not in line with the ambiance it wants to convey.

Er was voor 22 personen een lunch afgesproken, wij moesten 275 euro betalen voor de Herenkamer van 12.00-15.00 uur!! Voor 13 euro kregen wij water, koffie of thee en voor 125 euro verse jus. Voor 23,50 euro kregen wij een slap aftreksel, wat bij navraag uiensoep bleek te zijn en enkele broodpunten met onduidelijke vulling, soms kon je na een hap nog niet zeggen wat het was, veel is ook blijven staan. Het enige wat smaakte waren de broodjes kroket....

Restaurant Zuiver in Utrecht is highly recommended! Delicious dishes with fresh, local ingredients and a varied menu. Friendly service and a cozy, modern atmosphere. In addition, there are also 2 rooms that are very suitable for various types of meetings.

Delicious food and relaxed atmosphere

Had a delicious meal last night at Restaurant Zuiver in Utrecht. Reception was hospitable, food delicious and the speed of service top. I like the atmosphere in the restaurant. In short, highly recommended for a meal. Oh yes, parking is possible.

Wij hebben op 27.02.2025 heerlijk gegeten ter gelegenheid van de verjaardag van mijn moeder. Goede sfeer en prettige ambiance. Wij zijn prima geholpen door Daniëlle, zeer attent en goede serviceverlening. Reden om nog eens terug te komen!

Wonderful evening out in this cozy warm restaurant, highly recommended...👍👍👍👍

Nice thing! Authentic but beautiful atmosphere and delicious dishes on the menu. Service was good, very friendly and hospitable.

The food was delicious and well presented, but the service was very slow, and the restaurant was not even crowded. A few more waiters would be good.

Delicious lunch and top service!

Cozy, atmospheric location with good food and friendly service.

Great restaurant. Easily accessible and parking. We had lunch. Extensive map. Very hospitable employees. Nice and relaxed atmosphere. Recommended!

The place is lovely, the staff very attentive and professional. Explaining with a lot of detail everything, but the price is too much. A 3 course menu of coppa di parma, a meat based second and a tiramisu can't be 46 euros.... Definitely overpriced for what you get.

We had dinner at Zuiver with a number of colleagues. The food was delicious, the service fast and friendly. The atmosphere was casual. I have made reservations for small groups before and I always receive only positive feedback from my colleagues. The accessibility and parking are great. Important for me because my colleagues usually have to come from everywhere.

Spontaneously booked a table last Friday and had a delicious meal. Beautiful dishes and accompanying wines, but especially compliments for the genuinely hospitable service (thanks Marcel!).

The lunch we ordered was not available.

The restaurant is very well located: close to A2, just outside Utrecht, and with a large private parking. This makes it a great place for a lunch or dinner, where everyone comes by car. Beautiful, even chique, dining room. Fresh and tasty food. Great service. Perhaps to broaden the choice, with an accent on less bread and more proteins and vegetables. Will definitely come again!

Business function. Too small. Food was nice. Service was slow.

Had a delicious meal with a colleague. Good atmosphere and very friendly staff.

Surprisingly nice old location in the middle of an industrial estate where you can also enjoy delicious food. Pleasant (young) service. Lovely central place to meet, parking and accessibility ideal.

Beautiful atmospheric location, have been a number of times now. This time, however, was very disappointing. The service was way too slow; After waiting 2 hours there was still no food on the table. Drinks were taken but not served. The accompanying glass of wine with the main course was only poured after we had asked for it twice. The food itself was tasty, if it weren't for the fact that there was a hair in it. In the end the coffee was on the house. All in all, not the best for a basically fine restaurant. Missed opportunity, especially for that price.

The food was very tasty, just a shame about the cold soup! Service was a bit stiff, had to get going in the beginning and an error in the bill (2 bottles of wine instead of 1) is very sloppy. The worst thing for me was that we were put in the party room without being informed in advance. So you are not sitting in the cozy restaurant at Christmas, but in a large banquet hall. It didn't feel good and I will never make a reservation here at Christmas again. Really a shame.

The visit was a major disappointment. However, it started well: we were nicely welcomed by the maître when he accepted the coats, the atmosphere was excellent, neat decoration. After this it went downhill: after taking our order, the waitress thought there were no oysters and that turned out to be the case (Saturday evening! "best evening of the week" and no oysters!), the cheesecake and trifle were also "on". The steak tartare did not contain an egg yolk, but upon inquiry it turned out that it had already been mixed into the steak. The waitress could not tell us which part of the chicken was in the chicken dish ("there are pieces of chicken in it"), the fries were dry (air fryer?) , the fourme d'ambert dominated the rest of the dish (smaller piece of cheese or other cheese). We were regularly passed by, the maître was also just eating in the restaurant, cleared something at another table and continued eating, his loose shirt came out from the back of his jacket; he did not pay attention to the 2 young waitresses, the table was dirty after the main meal (oil on a wooden tray), but was not wiped down. Positive things: the tournedos was fine, the modified "steak tartare" tasted good, the maitre'd had a good explanation of the wines. Tip: give your staff some training (serving from the right, paying attention to the guests) and make sure the menu is in stock or indicate it in advance, not after ordering. We were looking forward to the visit, but we won't be back. This could easily have been prevented, so take advantage of it.

Had a nice evening and friendly staff who were very flexible.

Delicious food, always a surprise to find such a good restaurant at this location. The parking lot could be better lit in the evening.

Very friendly pleasant service and delicious food. Relaxed atmosphere in beautiful surroundings. Top

Delicious food, very good service and great wine arrangement with the meal!

Nice and cozy restaurant, hidden in an industrial estate in Utrecht. As you drive there, you wonder if you are on the right track. But once inside, you are truly in a special place. A large space with friendly staff who take dietary and eating wishes into account. They also come to check several times whether everything is in order. The food was delicious, the 5-course menu was perhaps even a bit too much. But a delicious meal in a relaxed atmosphere.

Lovely atmosphere, good menu and nice and helpful staff!! #recommended

Delicious food in a great atmosphere.

Gister 18/12 Kerst borrel met lopend ( voor mensen slechter te been of moe konden ook zitten )eten gehad van mijn werkgever Wat een feest gezellige kerst sfeer Heerlijke gerechtjes Super bediening glas leeg werd gelijk nieuwe aangeboden kortom Mede door zuiver was ons Kerst samenzijn een feest❤️

Very attractive restaurant, easily accessible by car. Despite the crowds, good service, delicious food and good wine.

I thought the food was just so-so and very little. Staff was very nice, good atmosphere too.

We arrivrd at 1900 and we didnt have our main course until 2115. What an experience !

Great restaurant, good food and good wine, although the wine is a bit on the pricey side

A mensa meal for fine dining prices. And you can wait 90 minutes for your starter (tomato soup). Staff is friendly but service is very slow, the excuse of staff shortages is given but it appears from other reviews that this is a structural problem. Do not offer a 4/5 course menu on your website if you have been structurally unable to deliver this for (at least) 2 months.

Every now and then you find a restaurant that exceeds all your expectations, but in the sense that when you think it can't get any crazier, it can get crazier. In a bad clean way. I was here on a company outing and I'm going to tell you briefly and concisely, Hungry Man was Hangry. Because we had to wait almost two (!) hours for our food. And when I got it it was still bland and not of quality. How are you going to justify this as a restaurant? Not! No compensation, nothing. My colleague got cold food, just bizarre. I have an old piece of meat that would even give my dog ​​a stomach ache. You know what, I'm not wasting any more words. Hungry Man's tip: Don't go! Save your money and eat something else. Oh yeah, I won't be coming here again, but you probably already knew that.

Had a great dinner, service was on point.

Very nice atmosphere, good acoustics, good food, great service! Everything was great!

Had a business lunch here, good atmosphere and plenty to eat. Sate just a little too long, but otherwise nice thing to come back for sure.

It was very busy and therefore noisy. After arriving after 2 hours, we asked where our main meal was. Luckily we got a coffee on the house for free. The main course of the 3-course vegetarian menu was risotto. Too simple for this price. In short, I won't be coming back here again.

Beautiful location, attractively decorated and very friendly staff! Definitely recommended.

Beautiful and atmospheric location

Staff was flighty and didn't really pay attention. If something was requested, there had to be continuous consultation with the kitchen. It seemed as if they didn't really know what was and wasn't possible. Had to warn them regularly, which is a shame because the food is very good in a good ambiance.

Moronic business located on the edge of a residential area. Last night at 1:30 midnight when most of us were snoozing in bed. Set off a mega fireworks show. Not the first time they've been antisocial.

Door zakenrelatie uitgenodigd voor diner. Goed bereikbaar vanaf de snelweg. Voldoende parkeerruimte en goede mogelijkheid om elektrische auto op te laden. Sfeervol ingericht restaurant. Vriendelijk ontvangst. Het was fris in het restaurant en ik voelde tocht langs de benen. Door gebrek aan tijd niet gekozen voor een aanbevolen verrassingsmenu, maar enkel voor een hoofdgerecht. Gekozen voor diamanthaas, was prima bereid. Ik vond alleen temperatuur van het gerecht te laag. (Misschien op dezelfde tocht gestaan). Mijn zakenrelatie vroeg om te betalen. Aan de tafel nam dame van bediening met haar tablet de bon door en gaf het verschuldigde bedrag aan. Dit mag van mij iets meer discreet dmv een mapje, boekje waar de bon in zit. Prima restaurant, maar voor de prijs net niet .

Nice tent and easily accessible. Just won't be back anytime soon. Reasons: - 6 glasses of house wine (Chardonnay) 47 euros; then offer to add a bottle to the bill. I haven't seen a wine list nor found it online, but I assume it will cost around 30 euros max - 1 glass of house wine (Sauvignon) was sent back because it was not tasty and was on the bill for 7.50 euros. That's allowed, but personally I wouldn't have done it - we ordered oysters for 4 people in advance, but they were not in stock even though they were on the menu - the fish of the day was sole. Tasty, but the bill was also 47.50 euros per person. Tip: mention the price of the dishes outside the menu - the fries ordered were cold (both portions) - the time between starter and main course was far too long - when we were just having coffee after dinner, we were asked if we wanted a coffee (the question was on autopilot)

Nice restaurant right on the A2.

Had dinner here with the board. You are still a real guest here! Compliments

Nice place. Good service. Easily accessible.

We had a nice meal outdoors again, it was very pleasant.

Perfect and easily accessible place for meetings and business (lunch/dinner) appointments with excellent service, extensive menu, pleasant atmosphere and good quality of food.

Agreed at Zuiver for a business meeting. Lovely place, quiet, casual, great parking, nice drinks on the menu and staff is attentive & friendly. The atmosphere and appearance is fantastic. I would like to come here again for a bite to eat

My first time was at Zuiver restaurant in Utrecht. Hidden in an industrial estate, I was positively surprised by the ambiance in the restaurant. The accessibility (we all arrived within a 1-hour drive from different corners of the Netherlands) was excellent and it was easy to park for free in front of the door. The food (a surprise 3 course menu) was very tasty. And I admire the service that handled our allergy restrictions and preferences very well. All in all we had a very nice evening until closing time

Attractive restaurant, delicious food and very friendly and helpful service. Definitely worth repeating.

Goed eten, maar bediening is dramatisch slecht. Uiteindelijk kregen we na 3,5 uur ons hoofdgerecht. Wanneer je kritiek uit, wordt de schuld bij de klant neergelegd.

Very friendly service and nice welcome. The food here was nothing special for us. The satay was pure and unfortunately without fresh vegetables, just some atjar and an egg with little taste. The other main course, the Fregola, was boring, lacked something crispy and had few vegetables for a vegetarian dish.

Wij gingen om half zes al eten. Toen was het nog lang niet druk. Toch duurde het 2.5 uur voordat we eindelijk aannons dessert zaten. De bediening was vriendelijk maar duidelijk ongeschoold. Kleine dingen: bijgerechten kwamen niet, ongebruikte glazen werden niet weggehaald, bestek werd aan de verkeerde kant gelegd, de tafel werd slechts deels afgeruimd waardoor we bij het dessert nog tegen het schaaltje friet aan zaten te kijken. Het eten zelf was matig. Voorgerechten matig op smaak en weinig spannend. Hoofdgerecht viel zelfs tegen, net als het dessert.

Neat location to organize events. Food is top notch and staff friendly. One recommendation

Nice restaurant, but an excess of noise. Slightly messy approach by staff. Food was fine. Company was great.

Il ristorante si trova alla periferia di Utrecht, si presenta come un casolare accogliente. Sono stato a pranzo, i piatti sono ben preparati e di buona qualità. Staff gentile e disponibile.

Last night after the great Moulin Rouge musical, we received a warm welcome in a restaurant with a stylish decor and atmosphere. The dishes were also very tasty. My tournedos was perfectly cooked and of very good quality. Pleasantly helped with the right dose of humor by a friendly host. Zuiver is highly recommended!

A very tasty and successful evening! The food, service and atmosphere were superb!

Delicious pokebowl, in a beautiful setting with very friendly staff. And don't forget, they also have delicious (hot) coffee

We kept our book presentation clean in the room and everything was fantastically organised. the room is very nice with good sound equipment and screen. The service is of an excellent level. We lacked for nothing and our host was a real support and was ready for everything. The snacks were well presented. the space is very beautiful. All in all, highly recommended for events. Dinner in the restaurant was also very good. nice space, good dishes. We had 3 choice menu. All dishes were in good order and excellent service. We would love to come back again!

Nice location to organise an event with a mid sized group.

The menu offers three "surprise dinner" options. Unfortunately, the 4- and 5-course meals were unavailable, so we had to settle for the 3-course dinner, which was the only option. The wine list was quite limited, but we chose a bottle of Bordeaux blend. However, they couldn't locate it in storage, so we had to pick something else. The biggest downside of the restaurant was the service. We arrived five minutes early for our reservation but were left unattended at our table for 33 minutes. It took that long before they even asked for our drink order, and the menus didn’t arrive until 15 minutes after that. All this, despite the fact that only three tables were occupied. I can only imagine the chaos if the place were full. The food was decent, though the waitstaff struggled to explain the dishes placed in front of us—not that it mattered, as the food was pretty self-explanatory. The atmosphere was odd as well, with an erratic music playlist that ranged from pop to heavy rap.

Had a good meal last time. But when it is busy, and the terrace is open, and you are walking on the terrace with 3 people. But you don't look around the corner to see where you have tables. Yes, then you go away for 20 minutes. Shame!

Excellent food and perfect service
