Maastricht Restaurants

  1. Beluga

    With two Michelin stars, Beluga leads the pack. This sleek, angular, elegant designer restaurant not far from the Maas features excellent service and Frenchified cuisine that never fails to impress with its attention to detail. A recent menu sample included lightly steamed sole with pan-fried langoustines and pommes à la tsarine filled with caviar, butter asparagus and a sour cream and black pepper sauce.

  3. Mestizo

    Need a break from French and Dutch cuisine? Try Mestizo, a very inspired Latin restaurant serving up terrific Spanish and Mexican food. Now, exactly who among us can resist marinated lamb steaks roasted with garlic and chilli? Well, vegetarians, obviously - but there's a reasonable selection for them, too.

  4. Restaurant Jean La Brouche

    This is classic cuisine in a quiet, lovely part of town. Think white tablecloths and cutlery with a bit of heft to it. If you're a fan of old-style French cooking, give this place a whirl.

  5. Restaurant O

    This (mainly) seafood restaurant wins us over with striking, stylish decor, and ever-present, ever-tasty aquatic meals. Lobster soup with mussels and shrimps, anyone? Pan-roasted moonfish? There's even a separate fruits-de-mer (seafood) menu - grand! Fresh and delightful.

  7. Take Five

    Situated on a quiet street parallel to the cramped terraces of heaving Platielstraat, Take Five combines fusion cooking with a stark interior, chill-out music and engaging staff. Expect live jazz on many nights.
