Rotterdam
De Matroos en Het Meisje
Checkered tablecloths, Delft blue murals and a touch of organised chaos — De Matroos en het Meisje Rotterdam (The Sailor and the Girl) is anything but a typical fine dining spot.
Nestled on the Deliplein,
this cosy yet eccentric restaurant has a warm, no-nonsense charm that makes you feel right at home. And just like the décor, the menu keeps things exciting.
Here, you eat wat de pot schaft — a seasonal chef’s menu that changes regularly and showcases the best ingredients of the moment. No overwhelming choices, just the simple decision of four, five or six courses. And the best part? It’s all for a refreshingly affordable price. If you’re looking for the perfect wine to pair with your meal, co-owner and sommelier Taco de Vos has put together a wine list packed with unique (often natural) wines from small-scale winemakers. Just tell them what you like, and they’ll point you in the right direction!
Open seven days a week for dinner, plus lunch on weekends, De Matroos en het Meisje Rotterdam is a place for all occasions, whether you’re toasting something special or just craving a really good meal. Book a table or walk in, and let them do what they do best!
