Restaurant & Bar Diga

We decided to go with the four course meal. We enjoyed each course except for the monkfish course. That was inedible. However, the scallops and tenderloin were incredible. The focaccia bread and dessert were tasty as well. Two waiters helped us interchangeably. One was very helpful. The other was nice as well but didn’t wipe the table when we mentioned it was dusty. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice and beautifully decorated.

The whole group had the 4-course tasting menu. The dishes were each very well-balanced and flavorful, altough they were on the small side. The vegetarian options were actually not underwelming in comparison with the meat-dishes. The service however was a little slow and chaotic. Plates were not cleared before the next course and we had to wait more than 30 minutes for one coke to arrive. The modern chic ambience matches well with the food they serve. I would recommend asking for a seat in the back of the restaurant where you have a perfect view at the open kitchen. Even though Diga is not the cheapest (60 euro's pp), I would say that the quality of the food and the entire experience is definitely worth it.

Especially the fact that the food was great, service was perfect and to be able have a normal conversation.

The food was great. The only challenge was the extractor couldn't process the air coming from the ovens when meat was prepared. We also noticed a lot of mosquitos

We had a fairly large group here for dinner. The service was absolutely fantastic. They kept the drinks full and were very attentive. We did a set menu and had several courses. Every course was perfectly portioned. This was an experience in itself.

Excellent fine dining experience around the corner of the main church of Haarlem. Definitely try the penne tartufo with truffle. In terms of decor, modern interior and open kitchen in the back where you can see your food being prepared in front of a beautiful glass wine vault.

We decided to spend a day at Harlem, a wonderful neighborhood near Amsterdam. We choose to have lunch at Diga, a fancy place at the town. The food is really excellent. It was quite empty for lunch, since most people in the Netherlands take some light lunch. I recommend the starter from the chef! Great!

An absolute delight - we had the 4 dish tasting menu with a wine pairing and it was delicious and lovely. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable - will definitely be back.

I ate at Diga on Friday night with 9 of my co-workers. It was our first time there. We arrived a few minutes early and they sat us right away. Since we were a large group, they put us in a small side room with other larger groups. It got quite noisy by the end of dinner. We shared 3 antipasti platters. It was all meat -no cheese choices. Since we had a few vegetarians this was a bit disappointing. We also shared several small pasta plates as appetizers. They were very, very good. Finally, each of us had a main course. I had the steak which was outstanding. Overall, I recommend Diga but you need a reservation as it gets super busy.

We had dinner here on a Saturday night. It was packed so it gave the impression that it's a very good restaurant. But, we were not satisfied to say the least. The food portions were very small, so even though we had three courses we were still hungry afterwards. Unfortunately the service was very slow throughout the night. As vegetarians ourselves, the menu is very very limited. For example, all they could offer for vegetarian starters was the most mundane iceberg salad. If you are reading this, try to book a table not in front of the entrance. We were seated there and it was cold every time someone left or came in.
