We were also confronted by a closed door. We booked through Social Deal, and by mistake, our reservation wasn't canceled. We called Social Deal, and they told us that reservations have been canceling for a long time and that it doesn't look like this branch will be opening anytime soon. So don't hesitate, this branch is definitely closed.

It says online that they are open. However, here we stood in front of a closed door. We had made a reservation and paid. After we called there they would contact us. This is also no longer done. So 1 star is still too much in my opinion.

Appeared to be permanently closed. We had a reservation for food for a children's party. Called the day before. Everything okay. We are standing in front of the door with 10 children, closed. We heard from the businesses around it that the business has been closed for 3 weeks and will no longer open. They just didn't know that yet at the head office. Then we went to the yellow arches where we received great help.

Closed on the day of reservation. No information about why. After calling, the answer came that there were problems in the kitchen. It can happen, but why not just have someone man the entrance/checkout to provide text and explanations and to offer an alternative. Now I stood in front of a closed door and went to eat at another restaurant. So Watertuin... you won't see us again!

Been here tonight. Upon arrival, the front door was already half open, later I found out that this was for the cooking smell. Because at one point it was just foggy in the restaurant. I thought it was downright bad and I don't think this is so much due to the staff but rather to the management. There weren't even any wine glasses left while the restaurant was not even a quarter full. My girlfriend had to drink wine from a champagne glass. I didn't think the food was that great either. The ice was so soft you could almost drink it. There was also no toilet paper in the toilet. Never had such a bad meal before, sorry.

Normaal gesproken laat ik nooit een beoordeling achter maar bij deze zaak kon ik het niet laten, heb dit dus geschreven puur om mensen te behoeden, snap niet hoe dit nog draaiende is.. Bij binnenkomst troffen we al een lege tent aan en meestal is dat geen goed teken.. Vervolgens worden we door de “leidinggevende” door het restaurant geleid alsof het een workshop is en wordt er al meteen gevraagd of we de wc’s schoon willen houden, nog nooit meegemaakt dit. Het eten op de borden lag er bij alsof het al weken in de koelkast heeft gelegen en elke keer weer wordt klaargezet, het gebraden vlees van de grill was heel rauw van binnen en de chocolade van de fonduefontein werd met een föhn gesmolten, heb je dat wel eens meegemaakt? Alleen de chef achter de wok was enthousiast maar voor de rest is het voor mij een no go. Nu maar hopen dat ik morgen geen buikklachten krijg.. Absolute afrader dus!

There was little choice, the food was frozen and the meat was discoloured. The desserts seemed to have been there for at least a few days. The floor was sticky while a small group of people were present. The cold buffet was closed at 7:30 PM and before we had left the entire buffet was closed (before 9:00 PM). Not recommended. I think the best thing I ate was the soy sauce.

There was little choice of food. It was not fresh and discoloured. Meat came from the freezer. Not recommended. Desserts were dry. Dirty bottles with sauce for the ice cream. Chocolate fountain was caked, whipped cream machine was broken. Like the orange machine, it fell apart at the push of a button. Coffee machine only produces milk if you want latte, you then have to add coffee yourself. Glasses were out for a very long time. You wonder if the food here will make you sick. There are no signs next to the food stating what it is. So you don't know what your choice is.

I have eaten at all the water gardens so the concept is familiar, Water Garden Zoetermeer is unworthy of a Water Garden, the only positive thing is the friendly staff, everything is below standard, this restaurant needs to be addressed otherwise people will stay away, not even soup like all the others, etc. etc. ..

We had dinner here yesterday with the family and that was a big drama, upon arrival a table had to be prepared for us and we were not given any cutlery. Furthermore, there were no glasses to be found, so you had to drink from the bottles yourself. Very little choice in food, nothing had been replenished even though we still had more than an hour, no name cards with the food, which did not seem too fresh, the desserts seemed old, the syrup/sauce for the ice creams was out of date, the food was cold even at the wok and at the grill then we stood waiting at the grill the cook was continuously coughing and sneezing he was asked to put a piece of meat on the grill and then the cook thought he had the courage to bargain for cigarettes so we can could get our food. Plates were only cleared after the complaint by the manager himself, who was also constantly drinking during working hours. Very bad experience and not recommended

We thought we would have a nice weekend dinner with the family, but we came to a restaurant where we got cold food and nothing was refilled. Very little choice in food. No glasses to drink from they had no juice for the kids. The chef negotiates with people to arrange a cigarette first, otherwise he won't put anything on the grill for you. Dessert sauce was old just came out in lumps. No cards with the food so people know what it is.

Had lunch via social deal, it was ok for that price. The man walking around was very friendly. The food wasn't super bad, but not that I would do it again either. The noodles had no taste, the foeyonghai was wet and dirty and the pastries were dry. Vegetables were fine, but they were also all wet. Salads and ice cream were tasty. I don't eat meat and sushi myself, but this was also tasty according to the rest of the group. I missed a baguette or something like that. and cards showing what is in the bowls. And there wasn't really much choice. Climbing for children was unfortunately closed, but they also enjoyed feeding fish.

The deal via Social Deal is good price-wise. Only the food is really worth crying over. The chicken was not cooked when it was stir-fried. The fries are undercooked. The noodles are from yesterday and fried. The toppings with the ice cream are two years out of date. The meat to be fried on the grill plate is not fresh. All in all a very sad intention. We will certainly never go back here again.

Ik wil graag beginnen met wat positiefs..het drinken uit de koeling is prima te doen als je het niet uit een vieze plastic beker of vies glas drinkt. Als je denkt dat alle watertuinen qua kwaliteit sfeer en zuiverheid het zelfde zijn dan valt je bek open als je hier gegeten hebt. Er staat een volle vuilnis/ asbak pal naast onze tafel! Check de foto!! Bij binnenkomst wordt je ontvangen door een gangster compleet met zonnebril en nike's aan. De koks zien er ook niet netjes uit, hebben aan elkaar getapt gereedschap. De manager staat hele tijd buiten te roken. Laat zijn vrienden hun eigen eten wokken en praat steeds buitenlands met ze. Alle apparaten van koffiemachine tot aan slush machine en afzuigkappen zijn smerig. De vloeren plakken....Ben maar niet naar de wc geweest. Geen personeel wat je bord ophaalt, en je moet je eigen tafel dekken!! Als er wat op is moet je maar komen vragen zeggen ze. Daarnaast wordt je aangesproken op laat binnenkomen terwijl je niet eerder kon reserveren en dat met een zowat leeg restaurant. De bakken waar het eten in hoort te liggen zijn zowat leeg en het eten wat kant en klaar op een bordje ligt, salades enzo liggen er zo te zien al een paar dagen. Zalm helemaal opgedroogd enzo. Kortom...dit is een ali expres versie van een watertuin. Je kan beter naar Spijkenisse of Naaldwijk!!

I've been to a lot of eateries but this was the worst experience ever. Simply dangerous to eat here! We were 8 people and were received by a self-interested, gangster-looking dark man with sunglasses who showed us around while hopping and who was also the bartender. I already smelled an unpleasant odor at the grill of non-fresh meat upon arrival. Shrimps with a lot of sauce with a very pungent bad taste. There were smoked salmon chunks that were completely dried out, I tried something from the bottom up, but it was really tasteless. At the first bite of the Foe Yong Hai that smelled like spoiled milk, I was actually already done, but out of decency I took a bite anyway. I immediately felt nauseous and took a defensive stance to eat things that could hardly be faulted. After 2 overgrown grilled prawns and the cauliflower (dish) which was much too hard and dehydrated, I finished eating it. In fact, all the food looked like it had been there for far too long. Finally, I had some ice cream, the scoops of which were immediately removed slid off the greasy plate and put some whipped cream on it from a bottle that stood next to the whipped cream machine because it was defective. I added 2 teaspoons of chocolate from the fountain over this, which was already 3 quarts was caked on the fountain like icicles. The floor was dirty and there was food scraps everywhere. We were 8 people and I had not planned to be the first to be negative about this, but all 8 of us are (unfortunately) we have never agreed so much! We will never go here again! And the cost for this was 42.00 euros per person, That is an amount for which you can expect something....(except stomach flu) This is the first time I've bothered to write a review writing, and this mainly to protect people. Why is there no hygiene control here? Judging from the reviews, this has been going on for a long time and every day. ps. I liked the entrance with the koi carp and the water was clear!

ik ben in heel wat eetgelegenheden geweest, maar dit was de slechtste ervaring ooit. Gewoon gevaarlijk om hier te eten! We waren met 8 personen en werden ontvangen door een zelf ingenome gangster uitziende donkere man met een zonnebril die ons huppelend rondleidde en deze was ook tevens de barkeeper. Ik rook al een onaangename geur bij de grill van niet vers vlees bij aankomst. Garnaaltjes met veel saus met zeer penetrante vieze smaak. Er lagen gerookte zalmbrokken die helemaal uitgedroogd waren, daar heb ik van onderop wat geprobeerd, maar was echt smakeloos. Bij de eerste hap van de Foe Yong Hai die naar bedorven melk rook, was ik eigenlijk al klaar, maar uit fatsoen toch een hap genomen. Ik werd er direct misselijk van en name een defensieve houding aan door dingen te eten waaraan weinig fout kon zijn. Na 2 uit de kluiten gegroeide gegrilde Gamba's en de bloemkool(schotel) die veel te hard was en uitgedroogd was ik wel klaar met eten. Eigenlijk zag al het eten eruit alsof het er al veel te lang stond. Als laatste nam ik toch wat schepijs waarbij de bolletjes al direct van het vette bord afgleden, en deed daar wat spuitslagroom op uit een fles die naast de slagroommachine stond om dat deze defect was. Hierover deed ik 2 theelepels chocolade uit de fontein die al voor 3 kwart vastgekoekt was op de fontein als een soort ijspegels. De vloer was vies en overal lagen etensresten op de grond. We waren met 8 personen en ik had mij voorgenomen niet als eerste hierover negatief te zijn, maar we zijn het alle 8 (helaas) nog nooit zo met elkaar eens geweest! Hier gaan wij nooit meer heen! En de kosten hiervoor was 42,50 euro per persoon, dat is toch een bedrag waarvoor je wat mag verwachten....(behalve buikgriep) Dit is de eerste keer dat ik de moeite neem om een beoordeling te schrijven, en dit hoofdzakelijk om mensen te beschermen. ps. De ingang met de koi karpers vond ik wel leuk en het water was helder!

Just okay for a bite to eat, it doesn't feel like a night out, but you can eat and drink okay for a decent price The all-rounder is around here: 1 man who was a host / cook / waiter / cleaner / entertainer / dishwashing helper in 1 and did his job with a smile, you have to take your hat off to that.

Ik ben meestal behoorlijk mild in de beoordelingen, maar Watertuin in Zoetermeer was echt een slechte ervaring. Het eten was niet vers, desserts waren voorverpakt, evenals de pannenkoeken en poffertjes. De friet en kroketten werden warm gehouden en waren daardoor zacht en lauw. De vers bereide wok was smakeloos, zelfs met een woksaus. De bediening was vriendelijk, maar kon het gebrek aan kwaliteit van het eten niet compenseren. Jammer. Zonde van het geld.

I have eaten at the water garden before, but it was my first time in Zoetermeer. We were warmly welcomed and even given a tour. The buffet was considerably smaller than I was used to, but that shouldn't be a problem. There was a very limited range and also a regular supply. No meat to grill (the best man had to go downstairs and he didn't, probably because he was alone), no vegetables and meat to fry in the 'ready-made'. In addition, the table was constantly full of empty glasses and dirty plates, which was not necessary because you could easily stand in line for 20 minutes for your food. In addition, there was a large party that also took over the speakers, so there was no background music. We sat in the smoke of the grill, making congratulatory speeches, forced to eat lukewarm fries or dessert.

It was quite an experience for us. The offer is satisfactory, but there is still some work to be done to make it truly successful. But what a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere there is. In short, you can't beat another better-known all you can eat restaurant in Zoetermeer. But potentially, if we start working more with fresh products, things will probably get better. Unfortunately, baguette was not fresh. I personally thought that was a real miss.

Had a nice dinner tonight at the Watertuin Zoetermeer. The Sliptong was delicious! Quality of food is equal to other all-you-can-eat restaurants. The staff are very friendly and make you feel very welcome. The big difference with other all-you-can-eats is that the plates, cutlery and tables are clean and nothing sticks!

We were supposed to get the money back within 2 working days, but we haven't seen anything about this yet.

Where do I even start? We entered because we saw the lunch prices and there were quite some tables filled, which is mostly empty and only 2-3 taken. The reviews warned us many times and the place is still open. Did they improve? We decided to try anyway. The host welcomed us warmly and treated us well. After we sat down, we went for the drinks and there was not much choice compared to other AYCE&D restaurants. Since it was bottled, we didn't mind. When we came to the food, all other (bad) reviews were true. The food didn't look appetizing nor fresh. The food appears to be kept warm for many hours, which we confirmed in the fries being tough and chewy. Also the demo meats for the grill didn't look special and when I got mine grilled and ready, it missed flavorings like garlic, spring onions and etc. The cuts of meat were not pretty. I know it is a buffet and you can get more, but flavor was too lacking. Also it was not kangaroo steak but liver after I got my meat. The wok ingredients didn't look cooled and the meats was not much in quantity. The chef was mostly looking around until someone finally tried out, which was 1 person in our stay of 2 hours. The reviews kinda scared us of not fresh ingredients, which made us hesitant of trying. The rice, nasi and bami were in big cookers and... it is not nasi or bami if you cook it together with frozen vegetables. In other words, it was not stirfried and there was no eggs or meats. The staff was friendly but it felt like they were left on their own. I saw the host do everything from picking dirty plates, refilling drink bottles and even doing the dishes. If the cooks didn't cook/grill/wok, they were washing and cleaning instantly. In the end, we mostly ate the fried food, which for the price was too much. Most dishes didn't impress us for a second serving. If I looked around how the other guests experienced it, it felt like they did not have any expectations and just ate anything they could find. I myself would never grab some sliced baguettes with jam from a jar. For the people in Zoetermeer centre, just go to Eten & Zo or Shabu Shabu. They might be a bit more expensive but I guarantee it is more worth than this. At least my daughter enjoyed the koi carps at the entrance.

Ate for the 1st time and the last time. Chicken steak and sole were gone, satay was already ready and was being heated. The floor, chairs and ground were really dirty, so everything was not fresh and I ate some nasi with ready-made vegetables out of pure necessity. The glasses were dirty and the drinks had not been replenished. Then we filed a complaint and left to go eat somewhere, so double costs because the manager first had to see how much we could get back, while at first we said you would get your money back. Outrageous beyond words 😡😡😡😡😡!!!

Really dirty there, staff are nice. The cutlery everywhere had residues of milk or something on the glasses. Bah bah

Food was lukewarm and not really fresh. I also understand that this is not possible if the place is almost empty. Very nice employees

What an entrance, so friendly! Big compliments to the chef! In addition, Reymundo made our evening. What a host he is! Everything to make his guests happy. Here you are not a number, but there is personal attention! Lots of choice in dishes too. From grill to wok. Something for everyone. I'll definitely be back soon!

The staff does their best to be friendly and make you feel at ease. Eating is not all recommended. Having fresh meat and fish fried is certainly delicious. Ready-made ingredients are often overdone and tough. Food is mediocre but there is enough choice so something for everyone.

Rey en Sri hebben er voor de 3e keer een onvergetelijke avond van gemaakt. Wat een service en uitleg. Voor ieder wat wils en we hadden ook een moeilijke eter bij ons in de groep ook daar hebben ze aan meegedacht. Wederom een geweldige ervaring met ons bedrijfsuitje! Voor herhaling vatbaar en een dikke tien voor Watertuin. Tot snel!

We zijn hier gezellig wezen eten met de familie. Het was voor ons de eerste keer in Zoetermeer. Ik wil namens mij en de familie complimenten geven aan Rey en Sri voor de uitstekende service en gastvrijheid. Ze zijn keiharde werkers en dit zie je ook terug naar de waardering die zij hebben voor hun gasten! Wij zijn erg tevreden en we komen gauw terug. Leuke sfeer, goede muziek en een leuke warme drukte Dit word ons restaurant vanaf nu! Ze hebben een leuke actie voor zowel lunch als diner.

Today we had dinner at the Watertuin in Zoetermeer. Have some vegetables prepared from the wok. Everything was still raw, the stir-fry sauce had no taste, and it quickly got cold. Add some cold potatoes, fried bananas? was not tasty, sushi was not tasty. Pasta de nada the fat dripped from the container/cake. Furthermore, the mop bucket was in the middle of the shop, we had been waiting for more than 5 minutes before someone came and we had been seen. Furthermore, it was not clean, tables were sticky, plates/cutlery and glasses were not really clean. Toilet was not really fresh. Pretty soon my belongings started to clutter, never again for me. Within an hour we were gone and we were the only customers.

Today after a fun day out with my mother, we spontaneously decided to have a bite to eat at the water garden in Zoetermeer for dinner. There were posters on the windows with promotions for lunch and dinner. Dinner was "on promotion" for €29.50 instead of the full €42.00 that it normally costs during the weekend. And that was our luck, because it was really bad. We really had to wait a few minutes upon arrival while the staff had already seen us but continued with their refilling work, which turned out not to have been completed properly. We were even about to leave when they kept filling up and didn't come to help us. When we were taken to a table, the waiter said that people would arrive around 5:00/5:30 PM because there were reservations in the system before then. We were there at 4:38 PM according to the receipt and left between 5:30 PM and 5:45 PM and saw no other guests. The downstairs toilet was dirty and the disabled toilet had no toilet paper. There was a mop bucket in the middle of the restaurant that you could fall over. The drinks were not properly filled, just like the glasses and cutlery. While they were doing that at our entrance. The food from my mother's wok was not cooked very well and my food from the wok did not taste very good either. I asked for garlic with my wok dish and it was mixed with another sauce. There were various types of side dishes that were also not cooked properly or where the fat dripped off when you lifted them.

Al regelmatig langs gelopen maar nu met kinderen en kleinkinderen verjaardag van kleindochter gevierd. Leuke ontvangst en duidelijke uitleg d.m.v. een rondleiding van manager Ray. Heerlijk gegeten met een zalig rood wijntje erbij. Kinderen vermaakte zich prima terwijl wij, de volwassenen zich tegoed deden aan het heerlijke eten, voldoende keus aanwezig. Ook kreeg kleindochter en heerlijk verjaardagstaart met vuurwerk sterretje en werd er gezongen, ook die personeel en andere gasten. Het was wel rustig dus misschien moet er meer reclame voor gemaakt worden (of mond op mond). Kortom gezellige zal, prima gegeten!! Binnenkort ga ik ook een keer de lunch uitproberen 👍

Celebrated granddaughter's birthday there. Were warmly welcomed and shown around by manager Ray. It was quiet but certainly fun and everyone (guests and staff) sang along "Long Shall She Live" while cake with fireworks was brought. Food was fine and plenty of choice. A very successful evening for granddaughter and the rest of our party, I will definitely come again!

It is an all you can eat including drinks. The furnishings were simple and looked good. Staff were really welcoming and attentive. But the food!! NOPE. I have to be honest. Some were tasty and some were not. The drinking glasses were dirty and that is unacceptable! Think there is room for improvement! But not for me to repeat.

Got Good to Go food, Gorgeous. Problem: hardly any customers, therefore no fresh food blehhh Clearly NO knowledge of good/fresh food. Received shusi with fresh tuna, EAT a joke ball of old reheated rice with something in it.... Gave it to my dog at home. Fry vegetables that should be stir-fried, even eggplant was snotty and reheated many times. I also put in a piece of satay skewer from a previous customer? I dared NOT eat noodles myself, which I also did NOT eat. TGTG costs 5 euros was NOT worth it. Go regularly to Eten en Zo, the old Locomotion disco, which is another extreme AWESOME!! Miss a nice staff outing for the Water Garden employees?

Very tasty food, friendly host and nice and helpful staff. There was more than enough choice of food and it was prepared exactly how I wanted it. For example, I was served well-cooked bacon and beautiful red steak at the same time. Overall, plenty of choice and delicious food.

Had a good meal at Watertuin Zoetermeer. The buffet is not as extensive as in Naaldwijk, for example, but that is no problem. Full is full and everything is really freshly made at the beginning. Good atmosphere by very nice staff, compliments to the manager Rey, despite the self-service concept we received a lot of personal attention from him, tables were also cleared quickly, which is not unimportant :-) otherwise it is a very clean restaurant, of course it is all still new, which makes it look fresh and fruity, definitely worth repeating!!

Placed an order through Thuisbezorgd at 6 p.m., waiting time 20-30 minutes. At 7 p.m., I called to ask where they were. The rude man on the line kept shouting "any minute." At 7:30 p.m., I called again, and the same story. Finally, the food arrived... I received the wrong cola, and the ham burrito packaging is twice as big as the actual sandwich. All in all, a disappointment, and the last time.

Ordered two Turkish pizzas, a doner box, and fries. The fries were still crispy! The Turkish pizza was perfectly filled, just a little cold, but no problem. Still the best pizzeria in Zoetermeer.

A very expensive shawarma menu at 30 euros. Now I'm going to San Marina Buytenweg, 18 euros delivered to my home. And it tastes almost the same. So, I'm going to San Marino.
