We will be coming back here very often. (Original) Een perfecte avond gehad bij dit geweldige restaurant. We waren geïnspireerd door het verhaal op de website en vonden het ook een heel leuk plekje in Hilversum. Het menu is gevarieerd, de presentatie fantastisch, wijnkaart divers en interessant maar het is met name de service en de ambiance die dit een well fijne plek maken om te zijn. We gaan hier nog heel vaak terugkomen.

    Was back at Monsees after a while, this time for lunch. Again, wonderful. Even though we had ‘only’ a carpaccio sandwich (and a few glasses of wine), the service was outstanding and enthusiastic. Loved the sandwich, the bread so much better than most other places around. Wine selection is also really good. Highly recommended.

    (Translated by Google) Delicious food, very nice dishes. Atmosphere is very cozy and service very friendly. The setting and way of presenting the food on your plate gives you a feeling of luxury. 5 course surprise menu was fantastic. Taste combination very nice and matching wine. Top location and highly recommended to enjoy delicious food. (Original) Heerlijk gegeten, super mooie gerechten. Sfeer is erg gezellig en bediening heel vriendelijk. De setting en manier van presenteren van het het eten op je bord geeft je een gevoel van luxe. 5 gangen verassingsmenu was fantastisch. Smaak combinatie erg lekker en bijpassende wijn. Top locatie en een echte aanrader om te gaan genieten van heerlijk eten.

    (Translated by Google) Four of us had dinner at Monsees. We ordered most of the card as we couldn't choose all 4 and saw a lot that we were curious about. All dishes were worth it and also looked beautiful. And, friendly, light-hearted service... great! (Original) Met z'n vieren bij Monsees gegeten. We hebben het grootste deel van de kaart besteld, omdat we alle 4 niet konden kiezen en veel zagen waar we nieuwsgierig naar waren. Alle gerechten waren de moeite waard en zagen er ook nog prachtig uit. En, vriendelijke lichtvoetige bediening... prima!

    (Translated by Google) Monsees: Starter delicious, but……. Because I have a warm heart for Hilversum, a somewhat extensive review. On arrival (18.30) in brasserie Monsees there were three tables with people. A girls came to ask what we wanted to drink and we asked for the wine list. It looks good, we drank three different ones (Pino Grigio, Sauvignon and a Spanish red), all three very tasty. The menu: nice choice of starters, we chose the mackerel ceviche and three scallops in cauliflower foam. Delicious!!! But then the wait for the main course started. Around us the tables were now well occupied and a cacophony of sounds and voices filled the brasserie. They should put some soft panels on the ceiling because you barely understand each other. At 7:39 pm I looked at my mobile. A little later the cook came to report to us that he saw that we always had nothing and that something had probably gone wrong in the kitchen, according to him it was not supposed to be that way. Fortunately. Main course: sea bass, which tasted quite fishy, ​​with risotto that really tasted like white rice. Not made with broth, and the quality of the rice was not good either too bad. Iberico was tasty but cooked and not baked as stated on the menu. Fries (supplement) fine, although ours were very pale and just overcooked, but I also saw good fries at surrounding tables. Then the dessert: that was very disappointing. First the coffee was brought and about 10 minutes later my dessert: white chocolate mousse and poached pear with miso caramel (hip trend). Two measly and very sweet mousse and three half pears caramelized .... but how, on what? Not the griddle of the meat? Didn't taste like anything and was hard. It was almost dirty, left a piece. Too bad that a night out for dinner, which started well, went out like a candle. The brasserie has potential because the cook is good, but the staff needs to be trained even better. Customer-friendliness could be a little more, and also wait when you ask at a table whether something tastes like. And, most importantly: something has to be done about the logistics with regard to the serving because we had to wait a long time but I saw several tables waiting for a long time. The kitchen is probably not (yet) big and powerful. In short: I want to go back again because I hope that there will be more better eateries in Hilversum and according to Our Story on the website they want that at Monsees. (Original) Monsees: Voorgerecht heerlijk, maar……. Omdat ik Hilversum een warm hart toedraag een wat uitgebreide recensie. Bij binnenkomst (18.30) in brasserie Monsees zaten en drie tafeltjes met mensen. Een meisjes kwam vragen wat we wilden drinken en we vroegen om de wijnkaart. Die ziet er goed uit, we hebben drie verschillende gedronken (Pino Grigio, Sauvignon en een Spaanse rode), alle drie erg lekker. De menukaart: mooie keuze uit voorgerechten, wij kozen de ceviche van makreel en drie coquilles in bloemkoolschuim. Heerlijk!!! Maar toen begon het wachten op het hoofdgerecht. Om ons heen waren de tafels nu goed bezet en een kakofonie aan geluiden en stemmen vulde de brasserie. Ze zouden wat zachte panelen aan het plafond moeten plaatsen want je verstaat elkaar nauwelijks. Om 19.39 keek ik op mijn mobiel. Even later kwam de kok aan ons melden dat hij zag dat we steeds niets hadden en dat er waarschijnlijk iets verkeerd gegaan was in de keuken, zo hoorde het niet volgens hem. Gelukkig maar. Hoofdgerecht: zeebaars, die best vissig smaakte, met risotto die echt naar witte rijst smaakte. Niet gemaakt met bouillon, en de kwaliteit van de rijst was ook niet goed jammer. Iberico was wel lekker maar gegaard en niet gebakken zoals op de menukaart stond. Frietjes (supplement) prima, hoewel die van ons erg bleek waren en net gaar maar bij omringende tafels zag ik ook goede frietjes. Dan het dessert: dat viel erg tegen. Eerst werd de koffie gebracht en dik 10 minuten later mijn dessert: witte chocolademousse en gepocheerde peer met miso-karamel (hippe trend). Twee miezerige en mierzoet mousse en drie halve peren gekarameliseerd....maar hoe, waarop? Toch niet de bakplaat van het vlees? Smaakte nergens naar en was hard. Het was bijna vies, een stuk laten liggen. Jammer dat een avond uit eten, die goed begon, als een nachtkaars uitging. De brasserie heeft wel potentie want de kok is goed maar het personeel moet nog beter ingewerkt worden. Klantvriendelijkheid mag iets meer, en wacht ook als je aan een tafel vraagt of iets smaakt. En, allerbelangrijkst: er moet wat aan de logistiek mbt het uitserveren gebeuren want wij moesten lang wachten maar ik zag meerder tafels lang wachten. De grote en slagkracht van de keuken is waarschijnlijk (nog) niet groot. Kortom: ik wil nog wel een keer terug omdat ik hoop dat er in Hilversum wat meer betere eetgelegenheden komen en volgens Ons Verhaal op de website willen zij dat bij Monsees wel.

    Sehr stilvolles Ambiente wir haben uns sehr gut wohl gefühlt. Der Service war aufmerksam und nicht aufdringlich waren jedoch immer im richtigen Moment da wenn sie gebraucht wurden. Dazu waren alle freundlich. Das Essen ist nicht nur was fürs Auge sonder es war sich vom Geschmack hervorragend. Wir können nur empfehlen unbedingt dort mal essen zu gehen. (Translated by Google) Very stylish ambience we felt very comfortable. The service was attentive and not intrusive, but were always there at the right moment when they were needed. In addition, everyone was friendly. The food is not only something for the eye but it was excellent in taste. We can only recommend eating there.

    I think this will be the only restaurant in the center of Hilversum that I will invite my friends and families to dine in. Every dish is well prepared with good selection of materials, in good taste and reasonable price. Nothing ever went wrong. Hope they will have seasonal specials and innovations to keep regular customers coming back.

    Have been at Brasserie Monsees recently with friends. At first, we were all agreably surprised by the aesthetics of the garden (calm, under the trees and white linen on the tables). But then, when the various courses started to arrive, we were simply amazed by the food styling and the delicate tastes which started caressing our palate. I have been in several starred restaurants, mainly in France. I've found here the same respect of the materials and products used and a 5-star personnel, professional, attentionate, in perfect harmony with the seriously delicious food!

    (Translated by Google) This restaurant has a super nice atmosphere, it is difficult to choose from the menu with all the beautiful dishes! (also a very good wine list) We ate very well and served by very nice staff. It is recommended to have a night out at this nice place! (Original) In dit restaurant hangt een super fijne sfeer, van de menukaart is het moeilijk kiezen met al de mooie gerechten! (ook nog eens een zeer goede wijnkaart) Wij hebben zeer goed gegeten en hierbij bediend door zeer fijn personeel. Het is een aanrader een avond uit te hebben bij deze fijne plek!

    (Translated by Google) Ordered the Christmas-to-go menu for Christmas and it was delicious! Five courses, super tasty, clear instructions for home preparation and we enjoyed it! My allergies were also handled very well and the menu adjusted accordingly. Recommended! (Original) Met Kerst het kerst-to-go menu besteld en dit was heerlijk! Vijf gangen, super lekker bereid, duidelijke instructies voor de thuis bereiding en hebben genoten! Ook met mijn allergien werd super goed omgegaan en het menu daarop aangepast. Aanrader!

    (Translated by Google) Friday April 8, 2022 reserved in the cafe part of Monsees. A welcoming party from reception to departure. The culinary care also leaves nothing to be desired. All dishes look beautiful and taste good, this chef completely understands. It was a great evening. Monsees is a must and culinary enrichment for our village Hilversum :) (Original) Vrijdag 8 april 2022 gereserveerd in het cafe gedeelte van Monsees. Van ontvangst tot vertrek een gastvrij feestje. Ook de culinaire verzorging laat niets te wensen over. Alle gerechten zien er prachtig uit en smaken goed, deze chef begrijpt het helemaal. Het was een top avond. Monsees is een aanrader en culinaire verrijking voor ons dorp Hilversum :)

    Het personeel was super vriendelijk en het eten was heel goed. De kok had een heel creatieve oplossing bedacht voor allergieën/ intolerantie. Het duurde daardoor iets langer maar dan heb je ook wat!

    (Translated by Google) You will receive a good and friendly welcome, it looks beautiful on the inside. The service is friendly and smooth. The food was delicious, the sole was sublime. It was quite busy, the round tables for 2 are a bit on the small side. All in all a nice evening dining. (Original) Je wordt er goed en vriendelijk ontvangen, het ziet er fraai uit van binnen. De bediening is vriendelijk en vlot. Het eten was heerlijk, de zeetong was subliem. Het was er best druk, de ronde tafels voor 2 zijn wat aan de kleine kant. Al met al een fijne avond dineren.

    Our previous visit on a weekday night here was a good experience and we got several good reviews from friends, but we were very disappointed after our dinner here last Saturday. Our table was the furthest corner of the restaurant, squeezed between the bar (next to the coffee grinder and espresso machine where the barman was loudly slamming the coffee piston every 5 minutes) and the toilets and outside door (that was kept open every time one staff went outside so it was very drafty) which was already far from ideal. Besides that, the wait for our starters and mains was way too long. We arrived at 18.30 and after ordering fairly quickly, our mains didn’t arrive until 20.10pm, probably 45min after finishing our starters. When we asked the staff about it, the only response was that the kitchen was very busy. It’s great that business is good with a full restaurant but why set up a table (that’s already inconveniently located) if you can’t ensure a good dining experience? Such a pity! The restaurant is a nice local brasserie but we won’t come back on a weekend day :(

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful spacious business with separate bar. Due to the Valentine's Day crowds, we waited just a little too long for the reception and 1st drink. Hearts on the table were festive. Missed something of an amuse-bouche on this special evening. The food and wine were of good quality, a pity that a starter was wrong, but this was more than compensated for on the bill. In terms of food, an asset to Hilversum. (Original) Mooie ruime zaak geworden met aparte bar. Door de Valentijnsdrukte net iets te lang gewacht op de ontvangst en 1e drankje. Hartjes op tafel waren feestelijk. Miste wel iets van een amuse op deze speciale avond. Het eten en de wijn waren kwalitatief goed jammer dat er een voorgerecht verkeerd was maar dit werd op de rekening ruimschoots gecompenseerd. Qua eten een aanwinst voor Hilversum.
