Restaurant Lutum

In general, it was very nice experience. Definitely above most 1 star in the Netherlands! You can feel and taste the chef is trying something outside of box. The highlights are desserts, I don’t like most of desserts but they really surprised me. Looking forward to seeing their summer menu. Some observations: I can still taste big influence of traditional French cuisine. The palates are quite towards French food. For me sometimes they are a bit salty and too much onion/shallots😅. Compares to food, the wine pairing is very conservative! Most of them are “traditional” wines. I would highly recommend to go bold with the wines!!!

Absolute gem of a restaurant! Local, authentic, relaxed. Thank you to the exceptional team for taking care of us during Saturday lunch service. Well deserved accolades, worth every second of your time. Well will definitely be back!

Awesome lunch at Lutum with friends. The wild boar with celeriac dish was the highlight. Beautiful wine pairings, easy vibe, no rush. The kind of place where you would like to come back to.

This is one of the best restaurants I’ve visited ever! The food is amazing, we loved everything we tried. We appreciated they did it faster by request bc we were in a hurry. We celebrated birthday and the team signed a card for us what was very cute. The staff is super friendly and helpful, they speak languages very well! Thanks for this fantastic experience!

What a great experience! The food was delicious, interesting, and creative. All the ingredients are local and of very high quality. The wine selection has been carefully curated—it’s impressive to see the collection. We enjoyed talking to the owners and learning about the place and their unique story. The vibe is super chill and easygoing. This was by far the best dinner we’ve had in the Netherlands. We’ll definitely be going back soon!

Lutum is without a doubt the best restaurant I have ever visited. Every visit is an incredible culinary experience. The 12 course tasting menu is simply stunning, with dishes that are as beautiful as they are delicious. Each dish is perfectly executed, and the flavors are harmonious and innovative. The wine pairing is also exceptional. Each wine is carefully selected to complement the dishes, and the sommelier is very knowledgeable and passionate. The service is impeccable, with a team that is attentive, warm, and professional, making the experience even more memorable. For me, Lutum easily deserves 2 Michelin stars. It is a true culinary gem that offers an extraordinary dining experience every time. I highly recommend this restaurant to all food lovers. A big bravo to the entire Lutum team!

Highly recommend! It was a wonderful experience, each dish had a story and we were told where the ingredients came from. The wine pairing was amazing, the food really brought out the flavour of the wine. The staff were friendly and really took care of us.

It’s the hidden gems in this small town. The dining experience here is truly exceptional, making it a worthwhile stop for visiting. The dishes are crafted with care, showcasing the local ingredients and agricultural products. If you ask me what is Wijk bij Duurstede about, the answer is the flavour of dishes served by Restaurant Lutum.
