👍👍 Spectacular cocktails! Dennis is an absolute treasure. Everything was delicious, and the Salted Caramel Rum and the strawberry gin cocktail (I forgot the exact ingredients) stood out especially.

👍 The food is really good! I haven't had many better noodle dishes in Europe. The setting of the restaurant is nice too, and the music creates a nice vibe. It is not too loud, so you are still able to have a good conversation. Furthermore they have an excellent tea selection and I was also happy to se...

😐 Used to absolutely love Harry’s before it’s rebrand (haven’t been since covid). Was a bit disappointed with our visit even though we were one of the first orders of the day and it wasn’t busy yet. Maybe we caught them on a bad day but overall we remember it being so much better. Not much of a greeti...
