De Vier Seizoenen

South Holland


Wisteria drapes the courtyard of this excellent restaurant in spring, making it a great place to enjoy a sandwich or settle in for a leisurely lunch (2-/3-/4-course menu €28/32/40). Dinners are enjoyed in the restaurant/bar area or on the terrace. The chefs deliver predominantly French dishes, but makes occasional forays into Italy and the Orient.
