Restaurant Fitzgerald

We had an exceptional dining experience at Fitzgerald, a Michelin-starred restaurant, during a special celebration. From the moment we arrived, the service, food, and ambiance exceeded our expectations. Despite some initial communication challenges regarding dietary restrictions during the booking process, the team handled our requests with care and professionalism. A quick phone call resolved everything, leaving us feeling welcomed and valued even before our visit. The service throughout the evening was impeccable. Liam, our server, was attentive and courteous, ensuring we were well looked after. Duco’s expert wine recommendations and his thoughtful explanations added a unique and memorable touch to the experience. The food was nothing short of extraordinary—each course was a perfect harmony of flavor, creativity, and presentation. It’s evident that great attention to detail and passion goes into every dish. The restaurant’s warm and refined atmosphere made it an ideal setting for our celebration. Fitzgerald truly lives up to its reputation, delivering a flawless culinary journey. We can’t wait to return and create more wonderful memories at this outstanding establishment. Highly recommended!

I came here for my birthday, opting for the 7 course dinner and my partner selected our own bottle of wine. I think the restaurant deserve it's 1 star. Food was excellent, beautifully decorated, and the flavour profiles are varyingly amazing without being overwhelming. I normally hate desserts at restaurants. But Restaurant Fitzgerald refined the dessert in such a way that it was not too sweet, fresh, and easy to finish. My partner and I wiped every course and complimented each one too. Ambiance of the garden is also excellent. I really enjoyed the almost zen garden design composition that makes space cozy yet really chic. Service was impeccable without being suffocating. Food came with a bit of time on between, allowing us to enjoy the memory of every dish without feeling overwhelmed by flavour explosion. Our waiters were very professional and courteous yet easy and not too formal, we liked all of them very much. Overall, we enjoyed our visit and it was the perfect bday dinner 🥰

Amazed from start to finish. We had a 7-course with wine pairing. The wines were excellent. I loved the preparation and plating of every course. Impressed by the professional staff. I had such a nice dinner and evening in general. Will definitely be back

What an amazing experience. We reserved/prepaid a booing online for Sat night dinner for 2. We opted for the 7 course menu with wine paring and it was totally worth it. Wonderful and surprising dishes with the right choice of wine. The only thing that could be improved is the explanation behind each dish and wine paring. Other than that a 5 star experience.

I dined at Fitzgerald in Rotterdam for a special evening dinner and opted for the 7-course menu, adjusting the dessert to an à la carte option. Overall, I was quite impressed with the quality of the food. From the amuse-bouche to the dessert, the quality of the ingredients and the execution of all the dishes were excellent. However, while the dishes themselves were impressive, the service fell far short of the standards expected from a Michelin-starred restaurant. The service was particularly slow, from the delay in presenting the menu to the lack of attentiveness from the sommelier. The staff appeared overwhelmed and struggled to provide the level of attention and care that one anticipates in a fine dining establishment. Notably, this was on a Saturday evening when the restaurant had plenty of available tables, making the poor service even less justifiable. When I pointed out the slow service, I was met with the explanation that the restaurant was “busy”, an unconvincing excuse given the circumstances. Furthermore, no effort was made to adjust the situation, such as offering a complimentary glass of wine, an additional amuse-bouche/dessert, or even an apology from the chef. This lack of a response to a customer’s feedback exacerbated the disappointment. In summary, while the food was undeniably excellent, the substandard service is the main reason I would hesitate to return. It is particularly disappointing as Fitzgerald is a Michelin-starred restaurant, and such establishments are expected to deliver a seamless dining experience. This failure is all the more disheartening given the limited number of Michelin-starred options available in the Netherlands. P:S: should you have any dietary requirements, it is important to communicate these in advance to avoid any charges on the day.

The food and service is marvellous. Bas is very patient to reply to all my emails and tried his best to help fulfill an extra request for my reservation. Thank you for making my long-distance 1st anniv went as planned :)

The service here is second to none. Bas especially stands out as someone who is both informed and competent in their work. The atmosphere is so comforting and soothing that you won't even notice the passage of time. The dishes are excellent. This is a spot that has my full endorsement. The whole thing has been great and much beyond any of my expectations.

It’s interesting place however I was expecting more from Michelin’s start ⭐️. The signature dish is pigeon. It’s a strong taste, with pigeon meat I miss some side dish that will balance the whole experience. Pigeon stew is great , but pigeon breast too strong. The place has an excellence wine selection from the all around the globe with all price ranges. You have 4,5,6 or 7 menu. If you can choose take a table in the main room not in the front room.

Perfect dinner, great ambiance and when weather permits you can eat in a beautiful garden. Large wine collection. Price very reasonable. Service very friendly
