Disappointing.
I
had
looked
up
to
this
restaurant
as
the
pinnacle
of
fine
dining
in
Maastricht
most
of
my
life,
and
finally
went
to
dine
there
on
our
honeymoon.
The
food
overall
used
interesting
ingredients
and
had
nice
presentation,
but
the
flavours
were
not
to
our
liking.
The
evening
started
out
strong
with
some
lovely
bites
and
a
nice
amuse,
but
most
dishes
that
followed
were
either
rather
salty
or
too
rich/creamy.
The
service
seemed
very
focussed
on
serving
food
in
a
synchronised
way,
which
was
fun
to
watch.
We
were
given
a
warm
welcome
and
the
host
congratulated
us
on
our
marriage.
However
when
we
were
surprised
with
a
plate
to
celebrate
our
marriage,
it
said
“Happy
Birthday”.
When
I
pointed
out
that
it
was
neither
of
our
birthdays
and
we
were
on
our
honeymoon,
the
server
just
shrugged.
Made
me
think
they
prepped
these
plates
and
just
pulled
them
from
the
freezer,
as
other
tables
received
similar
plates.
This
took
away
from
the
experience
because
of
the
lack
of
a
personal
touch.
Otherwise
they
always
kept
our
glasses
filled
and
replenished
bread
without
asking,
so
the
service
was
satisfactory.
About
halfway
through
the
dinner
we
pointed
out
that
we
found
the
food
too
salty
and
too
rich,
so
we
requested
if
they
could
tone
it
down
a
bit
for
us.
They
said
that
it’s
just
because
of
how
intense
their
sauces
are,
but
they
would
let
the
chef
know.
The
following
courses
were
still
too
intense
for
our
taste,
and
we
quickly
found
ourselves
looking
forward
to
the
end
of
the
evening.
The
repetitive,
loud
music
seemed
more
fitting
for
a
nightclub
than
a
fine
dining
restaurant.
At
the
end
we
were
invited
into
the
kitchen
to
meet
some
of
the
staff
and
were
offered
a
nitrogen
cooled
popcorn
which
was
a
fun
experience,
steam
coming
out
our
noses!
Finally
the
bill
was
quite
substantial,
as
expected,
but
unfortunately
we
did
not
feel
that
the
experience
was
worth
the
price
tag.
We
noticed
that
none
of
the
staff
dared
ask
us
if
we
had
a
good
experience
as
we
went
to
settle
the
bill.
I
hope
because
it
was
clear
to
them
that
we
did
not
enjoy
it
that
much.
There
are
better
fine
dining
experiences
to
be
had
in
Maastricht,
and
at
much
more
reasonable
prices.
