Overall à pretty good experience in De Basiliek restaurant...
The octopus as a starter was good despite not being outstanding, the sauce not bringing a lot of additional value to the dish. The shrimps in tempura were a bit more interesting with a nice crispy texture and pronounced flavors. As a main, the sweatbread was wonderfully cooked and the small pickles in the sauce made the dish quite interesting. The bavette was also pretty well cooked, the peper sauce not overwhelming the rest of the dish. On the lower side, i think they could improve a bit their selection of sides which were a bit too standard and obvious in view of the mains proposed.
Service is may be not the best you can imagine, but after all in the netherlands this is usually made by students which are not professionals...and dont want to be ! Given the casual atmosphere of the place, that is no big deal in full honesty...
Overall DeBasiliek is very nice place to have a diner above the usual dutch culinary standards, in a casual atmosphere and at a price that remains reasonable...
