    Poor service, poor quality, poor experience. Used to be decent in 2022. Special fried prawns, €9 (August 2023) - super oily, not heated upon arrival. Large portion. Kibbeling - oily, not heated upon arrival. Average taste. Decent portion. Paling with toast - good taste. Good portion. Will not come back here. Our order number and our buzzer number were different numbers, and the staff was insistent and misinformed and did not make an effort to correct this. Serving cold food is also a huge no no.

    An absolute gem, and so far one of the best fish and chips, I personally ever had. The fish and chips are very juicy. Very good quality of fish, and I also like the crunchiness and the taste of the batter. Definitely recommend going for the fish and chips. The lobster soup was also very good. It was not as creamy and it had small pieces in it. I think overall the price value ratio is really good. You get a lot for a affordable price of the quality and taste is absolutely amazing. I also liked the tuna raw tuna at the bar but I would definitely skip the paella next time.

    For a seafood lover, this is a a great place to go! The lobster thermidor is less than 20 euros. The Plaice is only 6 euros. Would love to come often If I live nearby.

    There's a variety of fish and seafood to eat, not very expensive. We tried calarames, prawns and something else. All very tasty, and didn't take too long to serve.

    A lot of sitting places inside and outside. You can order food via scanning QR code. Good variety of sea food options. Dorado and tuna were tasty.

    Had a great seafood dinner here for a really good price! Ordered 5 dishes with a nice variety of different seafood, all with their own distinct flavours. You can definitely tell all has been freshly caught just by tasting it. Definitely recommend the lobster (soup is also good!), the sardines and the scallop. Perfect opportunity for people to try some new things. You can order most dishes as startes, which allows you to taste a wider variety. Price-quality wise you cannot go wrong here! Only wish service was a bit more efficient, as they will not bring your drinks.

    Overall, the seafood is quite fresh, but lack of creativity in cooking methods. Highly recommend the Vongole in knoflook.

    Mixed feelings after visiting this place. Crowds of people. The smell of fat hangs in the air like in a typical fast food restaurant. The fish was ok... The lettuce was wilted... The service left much to be desired.

    No other place than this one, if its about Kibbeling. I would go 100km, only to get this good. + Food Quality + Freshness + Price + Self Service - Sometimes full

    Was there in 2018 and loved the food. Great selection, everything fresh.

  • 5/5 Yuri O. 4 months ago on Google
    Only the best seafood in Scheveningen! Our go-to dish is the Tuna Steak, and it is wonderful every-time. Would definitely give a recommendation to all seafood lovers to drop by for a bite.

  • 4/5 Erin W. 8 months ago on Google
    very delicious shrimp and clams! Fried fish is also better than other places. FRUIT DE MEER is soso, as the selection and taste is not fancy. Further, the shrimps and lobster is not that astonishing. Desert is too sweet.

    Great fish. Grilled Tuna & oysters are amazing. Price-quality is awesome. Waitresses are not allround, because of the way they process the orders. Example : our other orders came first, but the grilled one was later, due to the process of the kitchen and communications under waitresses. That's a pity. But we will definitely come back for the freshness of the foods

    Wonderful place to enjoy the awesome and real fresh aquatic or seafood delicacies. So many varieties and choices to look for. I tried Kibbeling menu which is basically fried coated fishes and fries with salad and Oyster which is a speciality named Fine de Claire. Good variety of drinks. Comfortable ambience and staff is good and respectful. Kids also get some special menu and pets Iike dogs are also allowed. Recommendation is to try to reserve in peak hours to avoid long waiting period. Close to Harbour and walking distance to the beach line. Connected with public transport with 800meters distance away. Overall good experience and must try one in The Hague.

    Nice place, fresh seafood, abundance of dish options. Close to the ocean

  • 5/5 Ali A. 11 months ago on Google
    I think the seafood can’t be as fresh as this one 😁 it is located in the harbor… it is like a factory but who cares , fries are good, fish is fresh, portions are generous 🤩

    An interesting concept, you order via the app and pay via the app, and then it's delivered to the table. Otherwise, it works more like a fast food restaurant with seafood, but it was delicious. Ordered shrimp and then tuna. Delicious.

  • 4/5 Hal 9. 1 year ago on Google
    Somewhere between a fast food and a restaurant. You can order and pay with your mobile. You have to get your drink from the bar but the food gets served at the table. Fried food takes about 15 minutes but be aware that grilled dishes might take significantly longer even though it doesn't say so on the menu. Large portions so order accordingly. There is a small parking areas in front of the restaurant.

    Great fish and chips style restaurant. Friendly staff who evidently enjoy themselves. Not for calorie counters. I had ‘kibbeling’, a famous Dutch snack, consisting of pieces of cod and other fish.

  • 5/5 Aminul I. 1 year ago on Google
    The best food in Holland! I felt like this is best fish place I've been to in my life honestly. The service was a bit wack but the food let me overlook this. The cashier for some reason gave more attentions to others but not me. Anyways...

  • 5/5 Innana M. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food, excellent service. You can order by scanning the QR code on the table and in a few minutes they bring you the food. The portions are huge and it is quite cheap comparing to the prices in Netherlands. Totally recommend this place.

    Great choice of fresh seafood served in a nice atmosphere. All dishes are super fresh and tasty. Big parking is in the other side of the road.

  • 5/5 Elina A. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Ying Z. 1 year ago on Google
    My favorite seafood Cafe. Fresh and good diversity. Very fair price. Never got disappointed. Also close to beach. They provide parking right in front of the door.

  • 5/5 Maciej K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great sea food! I was here on the weekend and came back on Wednesday which I think is the best recomendation:) Best? The Fish soup. Great! With a lot of pices of fish meat and small shrimps. Also classic shrimps in butter and garlic. Knibeling and calamars rings were not too fat ( and free if charge you choose how many dips you want - there is a self service). Tuna steak salmon were nice and juicy. You also have a shop so after a meal you can buy fresh sea food or fish to cook it also at home. What is also nice is the fact that you do not have to wait for a waiter. Each table has a QR code and you can place an Order immediately direct from the table, pay online and that is it:) I recommend very much!

    The quality and amount of food is excellent for the price you pay. I had lobster soup, shrimp-avocado and calamari’s with fries. I got a doggybag for the leftovers which was basically enough for another dinner.
