Zalmhuis, Schaardijk 396 in Rivium

The four of us dined there in mid-December 2025. We had a long wait for our drinks. We had Scottish salmon as a starter. Normally, this dish is served in a smoke-filled bell jar... unfortunately, not this time. This significantly diminished the taste sensation! We ordered Côte de Boeuf for 4 people (at €45 per person). The meat (4 pieces and a bone) was served first, and after 5 minutes, we asked where our plates were, only to find out that the meat had cooled considerably. The meat was full of tendons, and the knife they served with it was incredibly blunt. The service was mediocre. The Zalmhuis was supposed to contact me after an email review, but they never did. We won't be returning here for a while.

Delicious food, well taken into account complicated diet

Delicious food. Friendly service. Fun with the magician. All in all, very satisfied people. Paying was also easy because there was a birthday boy or girl there. Then we got a surprise. So, a super successful afternoon.

What a disappointing Christmas Eve here. The food was cold, the service was severely lacking and chaotic, and there was absolutely no Christmas spirit. It was clear there was no manager directing the very young staff to serve the guests properly. We've certainly been here before, but this was our last time. The price wasn't the problem, but the quality was simply terrible. Therefore, we give the rating a solid failing grade. Our advice is that the management address this, as this will definitely cost them more customers.

Disappointing! After paying a €25 deposit per person, we really expected more. The main course was far from worth the price; it wasn't particularly tasty and the portion was small. Three people ordered exactly the same thing, and each received a different amount. We also weren't treated well by the staff. We wanted fries and bread as a starter, and they simply rejected it. "The bread can come as a starter, and the fries with the main course," they snapped at us. We were very surprised; we had to wait a long time for everything. We were treated better by the magician and other guests than by the rest of the staff. Disappointing, not recommended.

Delicious lunch with tasty dishes.

The food and atmosphere are good, but unfortunately, the service—especially at the reception—leaves much to be desired. I was here for lunch on Sunday with a friend and my boyfriend to celebrate his birthday. Upon arrival, we had to stand for a long time at the reception because the employee had to attend to something else before she could show us to our table. I also asked the staff at the entrance if it was possible to get a small piece of cake or a cake with a candle so we could surprise my boyfriend and sing for him. This request was accepted, but after a long wait, we finally paid the bill and left the restaurant without the cake, cake, or candle. When leaving the restaurant, I asked why it hadn't been brought to our table. The only response I received was that it was "not their job." No solution was offered, and no apology was given. I found this very disappointing, especially since it was a special occasion. With better communication and more engagement from the staff, this experience could easily have been avoided. The food is good, but the service at the reception desk needs urgent improvement.

Noisy and the fish was way overcooked. Service was polite.

Everything was delicious. The salmon was perfectly cooked and not dry, the oysters were fresh, and the sushi was delicious. However, the service was terrible! When I asked if there was champagne with sugar, I got no answer. The waiter didn't answer and then turned away from me, without responding to my questions or orders. It was outrageous. I wouldn't want to tip a waiter like that, and certainly wouldn't want her at our table. The waitress was Asian and a very unfriendly woman.

Still a visually beautiful restaurant on a great location with a view on the water. Food was good, service friendly but still not much available. Example: after food has been served no waiter is coming by for additional drinks or checking whether everything is ok.

The food was excellent, the decor beautiful. The service wasn't exactly great; we waited a while (no problem, it was busy) and then suddenly had three courses within 10 minutes. Could be a lot better for a restaurant like this.

A lovely restaurant with a delicious menu. The atmosphere is excellent, and the service is friendly and prompt. The location is a bit remote, but parking is easy.

There used to be a good restaurant, they cooked delicious food, and the academic performance was good, but now the new chef is a tyrant, he doesn't have time to do anything, the food isn't tasty, and the food isn't fresh. The ratings are very bad, and I think the owners should think about hiring a new chef.

Nice restaurant for lunch. Good menu and pleasant atmosphere. Service is often a bit slow.

This was truly unacceptable! I've been a regular at Zalm Haus for years and have always considered it a reliable location for business meetings. But my last visit was simply disappointing. My business partner and I came to have a quiet dinner and discuss important matters, but after an hour of waiting, we only received a cold appetizer. The service was slow, uncertain, and barely knowledgeable about the menu, which was truly surprising and irritating. The main course took forever to arrive. While my colleague was on the phone, I decided to wander around and take a look in the kitchen. There, I saw a new chef working. The waitress told me his name was Vik and he had just started. After a long wait, the fish was finally served—and it was a huge disappointment: dry, tasteless, and clearly of poor quality. I know how fish should taste, and this was absolutely subpar. Under the previous chef, Lars, the food was much better. Unfortunately, Zalm Haus is now nothing more than an average roadside restaurant. Our company regularly hosted events at this restaurant for years, but that won't happen again. We'll be looking for a place with fair prices and good food from now on. Moreover, I'm considering filing an official complaint with the Consumers' Association, because the high prices compared to the quality are simply misleading.

I've been there for the first time, and the atmosphere is wonderful and it's just beautiful. Thank you for everything.

Nice restaurant with delicious food. They also accommodate special requests.

Pretty good food, though a bit boring items to choose from. The service is very poor, we were with a large group, and went in for lunch. It took 3 hours for them to bring us lunch and a desert, almost all of which was spend waiting an waiting for something to arrive. Dessert on its own took almost an hour, though everything was relatively easy in preparation.

We were celebrating my friends birthday today and it was one of the worst dining experiences I had in the Netherlands Service was very slow, my order was forgotten and I got my first starter after almost 2 hours of my order. Food is overpriced compared to quality. The best part of the evening was magicians who showed tricks. This was excellent but service was complete disaster

Delicious food. Lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Not worth the price. Slow service. Small portions, overpriced.

I booked a Deluxe High Tea at Zalmhuis Rotterdam through GiftForYou. I had to pay an extra €5. However, when I left, I was suddenly charged €15. These seem like hidden charges to me. I don't think that's entirely fair, and you should be informed beforehand. Moreover, both the quality and the service were truly subpar. Not a pleasant experience. First of all, we didn't receive a warm welcome; it took quite a while for someone to show us to our table, and ultimately, we had to wait 45 minutes for our food. Meanwhile, we had a leaky teapot and some glasses with ginger and lemon slices without serving tongs, so we had to fish something out with our fingers for our tea. No one ever came to ask if everything was to our liking or if we wanted anything else to drink. The quality was barely adequate, and it was a very basic High Tea. I don't see what it was supposed to be "deluxe" about, or how you could reasonably expect to pay €65 for it. It's truly ridiculous, sorry not sorry. We finally finished eating, and when we finally managed to let a staff member know we were finished, he said he'd be with us shortly, but he never showed up. It turned out he was standing somewhere drinking coffee. It wasn't even busy; the place was half full, yet the staff consistently ignored us. We walked to the exit, and because I was supposed to show my voucher to the restaurant upon entry, they didn't ask for it. I almost left it at the reception desk, but I still managed to leave politely. Then, suddenly, I had to pay another 15 euros. I also had to get a confirmation from my inbox, which was quite an undertaking. We were completely overwhelmed by the poor acoustics and the long wait for High Tea, and at the reception desk, there's a speaker aimed directly at you, making it difficult to hear the staff member at all. She also called me, so she forwarded the email. She explained that they only received €30 thanks to the GiftForYou, aka Wonderbox, voucher (which really has nothing to do with us, strange to tell a customer. What are you actually saying, "You should just be happy with what you got?"). It does explain why you actually get something worth €30 instead of the €65 that guests without a voucher apparently have to pay for an experience that wouldn't be out of place at Ikea if you were ever able to have a High Tea there. After all, you're not paying for the quality or the service, but for the faded glory of the building. Not worth repeating.

Fantastic restaurant, we had high tea. What a beautiful atmosphere this restaurant has! The high tea was also delicious!

The food wasn't great, but the staff was very friendly.

Delicious high tea in a stylish setting. It was busy, but not a nuisance. Parking at Zalmhuis costs €2.50.

Let's start positively. The food was delicious! The restaurant looks fantastic, but the service was far from good. It took ages each time before we were seen and helped, even after several attempts to beckon. We ordered extra virgin olives… we were given olives with anchovies… now I'm pregnant and I'm not allowed to eat these. I only realized this after I'd already eaten two olives. I told the waiter, and his response was, "We don't have any other olives. Please put them on the menu somewhere else." No apology, nothing. Even afterward, our plates sat there for over 45 minutes, even though we had ordered a second dish. After beckoning a few times, it was cleared away and the next dish arrived. All in all, the service was very disappointing.

Another delicious lunch. Flavorful, generous portions. Every bite was a treat. In short: once again, very good.

The food was delicious, the service was okay, the gentleman actually forgot what we ordered several times. The atmosphere was really great, and it was fun that a magician came to your table.

A really nice place with delicious food. They do need to work on their serving time, as it's incredibly long between courses, but the staff is super friendly, and the magician at the table was also a great touch, contributing to a fun night out!

Cozy restaurant, everything was delicious.

Sashimi salmon slices cut too thick, soy sauce not the premium tasty aromatic type, a bit too salty for my taste, the fresh and paste variant of wasabi was good.

I've been here twice, this time with work. The first time was a bit disappointing in terms of food and service. This time I ordered a different meat, which was tasty. The large portion was a bit mediocre. But the service was definitely worse. I had to wait 45 minutes for a sandwich with spreads. That's really long, and then I had to wait a long time for the main course. They also happened to be out of stock for a certain type of salmon, so I had to make a different choice. The restaurant still looks nice, but I don't think I'll be back.

The interior design here is so unique and full of character. Food was great too! I was invited here as wedding artist to draw quick portraits for guests, and it was such a lovely setting to create art in. 🎨💜 Hera Hsu Live Wedding Artist

A noisy space for a quiet meal. The quality is excellent. Parking is €2.50 and should be arranged.

Was there for an event. BEAUTIFUL

A rather disappointing evening, even though expectations were quite high. The evening started with a miscommunication among the staff, which led us to believe we had booked a "5-course menu." This was incorrect. After ordering drinks, along with our appetizer and main course, the long wait began. We waited 5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes for our drinks. We finally checked with the waiter who brought our appetizer. After this waiter also couldn't help us with our drinks, we spoke to the waiter in charge of the table where we were seated. This gentleman had already walked past our table at least 15 times and, after about 30 (!) minutes, hadn't noticed that we still hadn't received our drinks. Considering the gentleman's age and likely accompanying experience, we were very disappointed. The guests next to us also had to beg for drinks. Not smart and very unprofessional. Unfortunately, it didn't stop there. We ordered a bavette steak and a sirloin steak. Unfortunately, the waitress on duty only saw a similar-looking piece of meat (to her) and just randomly placed it down. She had absolutely no idea what she was serving or that there was a difference between the two dishes. The meat, however, was perfectly fine. We then skipped dessert. Naturally, we also skipped a second round of drinks. You'll probably get them after closing time ;). All in all, a very expensive affair for the very poor service. The food quality was fine, nothing special.

The place is horrible. Very chaotic, cold, noisy, and they set off fireworks late, creating even more noise and ruining the view. It's located in an industrial area, close to the local ferries, but parking is limited. Not recommended! --- The place is horrible. Very chaotic, cold, noisy, and they set off fireworks late, creating even more noise and ruining the view. It's located in an industrial area, close to the local ferries, but parking is limited.

I've been there several times and it definitely deserves a review. It's beautifully located next to the Maas River and has a great view of the Brienenoord Bridge. There's a wide selection, and our favorites are sushi, oysters, sea bass, and the cote boeuf. The service is good and friendly. I'll be back next week.

Lovely atmosphere, everything was ready for Christmas. We had a delicious lunch, the food was delicious. Also a beautiful view of the Nieuwe Maas and the Brienenoord Bridge. We will definitely be back.

It might not have been the best day for all the staff, but we were looking forward to a pleasant evening... having a good time together, but the service and especially the long wait for the food were unpleasant. After three hours, we paid, but no coffee or dessert... the food was cold, and the staff barely dared to look up or around, because maybe we wanted to order something else? We won't be back, which is a shame.

It's a shame you can only give 5 stars for service. Today I hosted a baby shower for a friend, and what incredibly good service (by Naomi). They worked so incredibly hard. A very late request for high tea was delivered 8 minutes later. An HHB finalist had made a surprise cake, and they immediately arrived with plates. What incredible service! Super attentive, blue balloons on the table, the table perfectly set and decorated—unbelievable. It was truly a 10 out of 10. If anyone is hesitant to hold their baby shower here, DO IT! The private space was a dream. It really doesn't require much. Their own music was fantastic. The high tea itself was, as always, top-notch!

Beautiful and atmospheric location. The service was a bit slow, but friendly. Unfortunately, the "tea" was forgotten during high tea. Long after the appetizers (which we waited over 45 minutes for) were served, the tea arrived. Not as it should be. They did considerately accommodate one vegetarian guest. She received her food on a separate plate, along with tasty alternatives. The entertainment provided by the magician at the table was also a nice surprise. All in all, we had a great afternoon, but I won't be ordering high tea there again.

We had a high wine here through Social Deal. The atmosphere was great and the service was friendly. Something went wrong in the kitchen, causing the second course to arrive very late. Luckily, we received an extra glass of wine to compensate. After the high wine, we ordered dessert and coffee. The food was delicious and the wine was excellent. I'll definitely be back!

A super cozy and atmospheric Art Deco restaurant. We dined there for the fourth time with our family. What made it so special for us was that eleven of us could sit at a round table, allowing us to interact with everyone. During our lunch, we also enjoyed the resident magician, who always pulls out all the stops. The lunch was fantastic again, and the service was excellent.

What a beautiful location on the Maas River! It was dark now, but the view will be especially special during the day. The room's decor is very atmospheric, and the acoustics are fantastic. Also important, the food is deliciously prepared and served beautifully by friendly staff. I did find it a bit of a shame that you had to pay €2.50 for parking; otherwise, it would definitely have been 5 stars.

We were a group from Germany who went there for dinner. Unfortunately, they tried to charge us for drinks we hadn't ordered. Absolutely outrageous. Otherwise, the food was delicious, and the restaurant was cozy and stylish. The area is quiet, but right on the water. Since the restaurant wasn't full on the weekend, we could have come without a reservation and saved ourselves the €25 prepayment per person.

Food was good. Service was a bit slow. We waited 10 minutes for a glass of wine. We just left.

It's a bit strange that you give a salmon a home sooner than the average standard Dutch citizen like me

Wonderful Art Deco atmosphere for lunch or dinner

It was a lovely evening, the atmosphere was very welcoming and attentive. However, the food portions were small. It was my birthday, and they didn't charge me for what I ate. It was a nice gift.

A unique building over 100 years old. The interior definitely has its own character. The service is top-notch, as is the food.

A wonderful place to celebrate. We received a very warm welcome and were given a lovely table. We enjoyed delicious dishes. There was plenty of choice. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was peaceful. The restaurant itself looks beautiful; you won't get bored of it. Parking right outside. Thank you for the wonderful evening!

Well, we went back to Het Zalmhuis at the invitation of Hell's Kitchen, following my previous review about the high tea. Well, the welcome was already warm the first time, but this time it was even warmer and more cozy! Haha! Even though they didn't even know who we were. If every restaurant welcomed their guests like that, that would be amazing! Well, my daughter and I were allowed to choose a nice spot, which was really sweet. Unfortunately, the one by the window was already full, but we were happy with the second option. We politely skipped the tables where the high tea was last time. Haha! Sitting so close together is really not for us. But hey, we were really comfortable this time! Well, as promised, we were given some rolls with spreads and, oh, delicious olives to make up for it. The photos don't lie; just thinking about it makes me hungry again. Haha! My daughter and I then opted for the Zalmhuis soup, that's what I'll call it since I can't quite remember what it's called. But what I do know is that this was DELICIOUS + a croquette sandwich and salmon on brioche, also truly delicious. I could also clearly see that they were really friendly to every guest, so it wasn't about my previous review being less than stellar; they're just friendly. A long story, but in short, we'll definitely be back! It's also really nice that they're really taking the reviews seriously; this also shows that at Zalmhuis, they're all about the people. Keep up the good work! I expected more from the Zalmhuis. The high tea was delicious, but I've had better. The tables are so close together that you can't really have a nice private conversation. We could hear everything the conversation next to us was having, even though we were trying to focus on our own. More space between the tables would be better. The tea was delicious, though.

Here you go back in time in terms of atmosphere and the food is excellent!

Herman, may I invite you to your "local hero" Zalmhuis some Saturday night? You'll be watching with tears in your eyes, as you dismiss your customers. Rightly so, a Hel's Kitchen... Is this your intended "upscale hospitality business"? Then something really needs to change... Let me take you along. It started off promisingly. What a beautiful building with grandeur upon arrival! It's a shame, though, that you have to pay €2.50 to park in the parking lot, only to then have to weave past four smoking girls to enter the entrance. A quick trip to the restroom before we started our dinner. The floor of the separate women's restroom was covered in fresh urine splatters. What was that? A bad entrance... Anyway. We were escorted to our table. When serving the first drinks, the waiter placed a glass on a dark glass. He couldn't see it well. It was so dark in the restaurant where we were. Meanwhile, the aisle side has lighting at seat height, as bright as a streetlight. Not pleasant for the customers on the adjacent chairs in the aisle. It's also not pleasant for the waitstaff, who barely have room to move. For the rest of the evening, servers came to our table five times (!) with trays full of drinks, not meant for us. What we did get: – First round: 5 drinks instead of 6 – Not our ordered menu – 5 plates instead of 6 – Drinks with ice instead of without ice The extremely stressed waitstaff, rushing around, makes the best of it. But what chaos. This isn't due to a shortage of staff. But to extremely poorly organized processes! And then there are those hideous plastic plants everywhere. Do you want to exude "luxury" with them? And what's the purpose of that floor in the middle of the first floor? Now it was a play area for toddlers, who ran around screaming from 8:30 pm onwards… And then a magician at the table? In this segment? It surprised us. The quality of our food was excellent. That's not the problem. Although the portions were exceptionally small. Overall… a very disappointing experience, Herman!

Beautiful location with really good food, and beautifully presented plates.

Nice place, good food and drinks

First of all, the food was delicious, but after 5 minutes we were a bit confused, because we'd arranged it through SocialDeal. We forgot to call out at the beginning, so the menu had to be returned. We received a fixed 3-course meal, and only FISH! We thought it was fine and delicious, but imagine if you don't like that. It wasn't entirely clear to us what if, but we were served politely (by a drag queen upon arrival! Beautiful) and had a view of the Maas River. We do feel like we had almost all the staff at our table, which was nice in some ways, but less personal. Thank you, Zalmhuis, for a wonderful dinner on our 39th wedding anniversary.

Not what it used to be. I've eaten here many times for birthdays, business lunches, even Valentine's Day and Christmas. Always good. Now I ate here again with my partner for my birthday. It already went wrong with the starter. We ordered a sushi platter to share, which we received twice. It can happen, but strange when you order something to share. The waitress didn't tell us exactly which sushi it was, so we had to taste it blind. It was fine, except that the price was too high for "fine." For the main course, we had salmon from the grill and the plancha. The soft shell crab had almost evaporated in the oil; it was so overcooked. You expect the salmon to be perfectly cooked from the ZALMhuis, at the very least. It was so overcooked, it was dry and tasteless. The only consolation was the friendly waitress and the fact that I was eating for free, but even with that discount (since my partner wasn't eating for free), the bill was far too high for what we got. It's also nonsense that you have to pay to park on the property. I don't know what's changed, but it's a real shame. Unfortunately, we won't be coming back.

Today was my partner's birthday and we went to the Zalmhuis for dinner. We've been here before, and it's always been excellent. Unfortunately, today was very disappointing. We had to wait a long time for drinks and received the wrong order. The food was also absolutely nothing special. The salmon was overcooked and therefore dry. You wouldn't expect that when you think of the Zalmhuis. The vegetables also lacked flavor. The fries were greasy and had lots of brown bits in them. We didn't eat them. The birthday discount hadn't been applied at checkout, even though this was clearly stated when we made the reservation. It was eventually applied, but it was still far too expensive for the quality of the food. The waiter was nice, and the atmosphere and background music were fine. We're very disappointed that the Zalmhuis isn't the same as it used to be. Unfortunately, we won't be back.

We celebrated our wedding here. What a fantastic, phenomenal organization. The food was great, but especially the staff who served and took care of everything in the various rooms we used deserve a huge compliment. You gave us a perfect day!

During our lunch the waitresses (Dutch old man and Asian old man and Asian woman ) made several mistakes due to miscommunication between each other it seems that they don’t like each other and they don’t communicate about the bill or the order so because of that they missed my order and I had to reminded them twice also I’m payment they did payment twice because of miscommunication between each other.

We thoroughly enjoyed the 4-course meal. It was fantastic! I think the atmosphere is relaxed. Friendly service. We'll definitely be back 😄

Zalmhuis in Rotterdam is a stunning riverside restaurant with delicious, well-prepared food that usually arrives quickly. The menu has a wide variety to choose from, and while prices are a bit on the higher side, the quality makes it worth it. On sunny days, the views are spectacular, and the interior design gives the place a fabulous, stylish vibe. The staff are friendly and attentive—some even take your full order without writing anything down, a rare skill in today’s horeca. It’s not the easiest place to reach by public transportation, but they do offer parking for just €2.50 per visit. And a nice bonus: you can enjoy a free meal on your birthday!

Today I had a wonderful lunch with my sister at Zalmhuis. What a great vibe this place has on a Sunday afternoon. Pleasant music, a great atmosphere, and a great crowd. It's clubby and glam without being overly chic. A beautiful view of the Meuse River. We took advantage of the birthday offer and were thoroughly pampered. The service was very friendly and attentive, and the food was truly excellent. Delicious, crispy salmon and skin-on swordfish. Crispy vegetables, and oh my... those delicious fries with truffle mayo! We saw many other delicious dishes being served around us, so we'd love to come back to try more of the menu. Thanks for a fantastic afternoon!

Had a delicious meal in a beautiful restaurant

Beautiful restaurant, good atmosphere and delicious food.

What a surprising experience to eat at the Zalmhuis! In an unexpected location, a delicious variety of fish is served in an exotic setting. The friendly and welcoming staff made it a truly enjoyable Sunday afternoon lunch. Definitely worth a return visit!

Nice cozy location, good service.

What a beautifully decorated restaurant! It immediately felt cozy and inviting. The convenience of ample parking is also a big plus. We enjoyed a delicious high tea here: everything was perfectly prepared, with delicious snacks and beautifully presented. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to treat themselves or someone else.

Cozy restaurant Good food Very busy Strange to pay €2.50 for parking If it's so busy, why the loud music? It should be in the background. Service is good.

I was there for a wedding. Nice location. Good food. I didn't find any fault with the staff. Parking wasn't expensive at €1.50, and it's only payable by card.

Delicious food in a pleasant atmosphere and exceptionally friendly service. Top location.

There were two of us for high tea. We'd seen on the website that it normally costs €32.50 per person. Luckily, we'd found a deal, so it was now €22.50 per person. For what we received, it was still far too much money! Three plates, two sweet and one savory. Scones that fell apart far too dry, lots of fruit in between, and a large dollop of cotton candy to top the plates... which didn't justify the price. We expected more; it's a shame we still paid €45 for this. We certainly didn't eat or drink what we paid. The staff were friendly, but not very fast, even though there were only five tables occupied in the entire restaurant. As we left the restaurant, the kitchen staff were leaning over the counter. They didn't even say hello, just stared at us. It's a shame that such a beautiful restaurant is going downhill; you can tell.

Today I enjoyed dinner at the Zalmhuis. I was alone, but the service was attentive and made me feel welcome. The food was good and nicely presented. All in all, a pleasant experience that I would definitely recommend.

Faded glory, truly, unfortunately. The Salmon House was at its peak. The food is tasty, but very limited and very expensive. I came back for the cocktails... But this time it was like lemonade with a straw. Absolutely no garnish, no foam, nothing. I made it clear I couldn't pay 14.50 for it. Seriously, see the photos. The waiter just laughed as he walked away from our table and said, "It'll still taste the same, and that was definitely the evening you ordered it." Later, the bartender did remove them from the bill, which was nice. The terrace is outdated and now has a really neglected vibe. The service is really... Not pleasant, no charm. It's a real shame because it's a great location, but I can certainly relate to the negative reviews here; they say the same thing.

Het Zalmhuis turned out to be a true hidden gem on the Schaardijk. Beautifully decorated, colorful, and stylish ✨. We sat comfortably on the terrace overlooking the water. I opted for a poké bowl with salmon, super fresh and full of flavor. An added bonus: they smoke the salmon themselves in their own outdoor smokehouse. Fun fact: this iconic building has been a household name for almost 150 years and was once the place where Dutch salmon was traded ⚓. It's wonderful how that history has now been translated into a modern, classy restaurant. It's a shame it's not around the corner from me, otherwise I would definitely come here more often. I'll definitely be back, if I'm ever in the area again... otherwise, I'll just look for a good excuse 😉

Enjoyed the ambiance along the Meuse River. The uniquely decorated restaurant is located under the Van Brienenoord Bridge. It has a long tradition of salmon fishing. The food was delicious and the service excellent.

Nice location for a Sunday afternoon lunch

Beautifully presented dishes and excellent ingredients. The ambiance is wonderful. The service could be a bit more attentive to empty glasses, but that didn't detract from the experience.

The atmosphere and ambiance are great. Service takes a while, and they pour less than half a glass of drink, so you keep ordering more. That's a shame. There was also an insect in my beef appetizer. I could almost see it walking away.

Such a bad experience. It only took 45 minutes to get a drink... I'll spare you the rest of the story about how bad it was on a Tuesday night.

The high wine is also fantastic here; a great selection of dishes, good quality, and, because it's also a feast for the eyes, beautifully presented! With a bit of luck, you'll find a spot on the covered outdoor terrace; you'll feel like you're abroad. Besides that, the whole atmosphere and decor are original and charming. Love it.

The food was okay. But it's rude to charge parking on your own property. Imagine a group of three, and everyone drives their own car (because it's a bit out of the way). Then you'll just have to pay.

A very impressive restaurant. The adventure begins the moment you step inside. You pass the open kitchen before being greeted by a host who leads you to your table. The service is friendly and fast. The menu offers plenty of options for everyone, a perfect pairing for meat and fish lovers. The wine on the standard menu was also very good. We had the verdecho. The dessert was also a welcome surprise. All in all, highly recommended.

Long wait times. The food was delicious. Not every birthday boy or girl was treated the same. We received three balloons, other balloons, and fireworks.

Very tasty food. Friendly staff. Too bad the wait was long.

A warm welcome followed by a house magician at our table, right behind the DJ, who played the same beat all evening. We had to ask for bread a few times, and before we even finished it, the appetizer arrived. A pleasant evening out.

Delicious food & great atmosphere

Nice and cozy atmosphere. Delicious food. Live music. A singer came to sing.

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. After ordering, I was entertained by a "magician," which was a fun and unique restaurant experience.

Wednesday, August 13, 2025, we made a reservation for 10. The service was very poor, and we waited a long time for drinks. The bread platter was already gone before the drinks arrived. We ordered still and sparkling water, and it didn't arrive until after the main course. Dessert arrived far too late for one guest; everyone had already finished their meal.

What a disappointment to go to the Salmon House. You pay €2.50 to enter the parking lot. The service is terrible; it takes a very long time to get your order. It's strange that there were only 10 people eating inside. There were also 10 of us. You order things, but you have to ask a staff member after 15 minutes to tell you where your drinks are. The food was good, but the service wasn't.

The food I ate was very tasty, but the service was less so. Drinks took a very long time, and water only arrived when we asked for it. We received the answer, but the main course still hadn't arrived. Not exactly a customer-first mentality. During the main course, drinks were forgotten again, and with dessert, one person didn't get any dessert at all. No one even bothered to check, so we skipped someone. And we always received a counter-reply that wasn't customer-friendly. So, unfortunately, the food was good, but the service could be much better.

What a joy to be able to sit here. It exudes the atmosphere of old grandeur. The staff are very friendly, and everything moves along smoothly. It's all a bit pricey, but you're definitely paying for the location, the view, and certainly the beautiful decor.

Delicious food. Not cheap, but definitely worth the money. The atmosphere was great, and the live music was top-notch. Unfortunately, only three songs. The music was loud but not distracting. Definitely worth going back.

We dined here on January 25, 2025, for our 5th wedding anniversary. Upon arrival, we received a warm welcome, and the decor is beautiful! Once seated, it took quite a while to receive a drinks menu or menu. The music (live DJ) was way too loud, making it difficult to hear our partner. The rest of the meal, and even the checkout, took far too long. After dinner, we got up immediately and walked to the cash register to pay. This was partly because it took so long, as they rarely came to our table. Otherwise, the food was delicious! But unfortunately, I won't be back next time.

The weather was beautiful, so we ate outside. Wonderful view over the Maas River.

A truly top-notch place in a top location. Right under the Fabrienenoord Bridge. We had lunch there for a birthday. It's clean, warm, and spacious. It was set up perfectly, and we even had a magician at our table that day.

Lunch was a bit slow this time despite reservation and arriving 1130. Nice food and good service nevertheless
