Loetje Utrecht

Last visited August 2025. It was a Sunday lunchtime when I dined here. Not busy at the time so the service was rather good. Dined solo so rather pleasant not being too busy. Check out the picture on what I ordered. Yep, my Sunday dinner. Not a roast (guess you may have guessed, im from the UK) but just as good. Thumbs up....

Too much fatty sauce in poke bowl, the cooked rice wasn’t fresh. Burger buns were cold, overall appearance wasn’t very nice. Asked for tap water, the waitress promised, but didn’t bring it. The advertised pastrami focaccias were sold out (why advertising them then?)

Charming restaurant famous for their steak in gravy sauce. Personally I think the quantity for the price was too small and the sauce a little too salty but would come back next time I am in town. Recommended by children's museum security guard

The place is busy on a weekday night but the crowd level seems to reduce after 7pm and you can get a table relatively easily past 7pm. The place is trendy. The food is a tad too salty but otherwise ok.

Absolute dream-meal. We had a stunning time here at Loetje. The staff was friendly and their recommendations were spot on - exactly what we wanted. The food came quickly and was super delishous. The menu offers a bunch of vegetarian and vegan options too, aswell as alcohol-free drinks. Meat was amazing quality with a one-of-a-kind sauce!

Loetje Utrecht: A classic in a new coat Loetje Utrecht is a well-known restaurant in the city. The restaurant has been a favorite for steak lovers for years. Recently, Loetje introduced a new 100% plant-based version of their famous steak: Loetje's Biefstuk Bali 0.0. I was curious about this new version, so I decided to try it. The steak is made from New Meat, a plant-based product that has a texture and flavor similar to that of real steak. The steak was tender and juicy, and in my opinion, it tasted like meat. I really enjoyed it! A small downside was that the steak was not cooked in plant-based butter. This is a shame, as it would make the dish vegan. Loetje Utrecht is a cozy restaurant with a beautiful interior. They are also dog-friendly, which is always a plus. Overall rating Positives: Delicious plant-based steak Cozy restaurant Dog-friendly Negatives: The steak is not cooked in plant-based butter Conclusion Loetje Utrecht is a recommendation for anyone looking for a delicious and cozy evening out. The 100% plant-based steak is a recommendation for vegetarians and vegans. Tips for improvement: Cook the steak in plant-based butter to make the dish vegan Offer plant-based milk in coffee Offer at least one plant-based dessert Total score: 4.5 out of 5 stars

Their gravy is next level! Love their Bali and Garlic beef tenderloin dishes. Added bonus is the complementary bread slices for properly finishing the gravy.

I don't know how to describe this restaurant.... Just simply MORE THAN LEKKER MORE THAN SMAKELIJK. Gezellig-lekker- heerlijk my best part in the Netherlands, the meat was glorious!
