I don't understand why ppl gave them lil score for my experience the restaurant was good. Nice food and beatiful views
We just can’t fault this place! They were kind enough to let us dine with our little dog (in his carrier) and the all-you-can-eat buffet was fantastic! We had quite low expectations of a buffet but there was a vast selection of food and the quality was very good! I was particularly impressed by the sushi and roast pork belly. The selection and service for drinks was excellent too and I left feeling both pretty merry and also extremely full and satisfied! One of our favourite meals of the trip :D
WORST experience EVER!!! Horrible disappointment, if given the chance I would give them -100 stars. This restaurant should be shut down and the staff banned from handling food forever. Today I visited De ChineseBoot Restaurant, Parkhaven 21, Rotterdam 3016GM with my family, we had a special occasion and booked a table. Booking was easy, we found the location easily. There is parking for only 5 Euros per hour (normally in this type of restaurant parking is free). We had lamb, beef, fish, salad, melon and apple cake. We were extremely disappointed. I highly recommend you don't be fooled either, visit this otherwise interesting looking place, apparently the "cover" really does lie. Beef is old (raw meat is brownish with red undertones), tastes like sole, dry and tasteless, Lamb smells more like goat than lamb, Fish, sushi and their fish stall is suicidal. Salads are a mix of old and too old with different shades in the natural color of celery. The desserts are too frozen and you have to wait 30-40 minutes for them to chill, but trust me you wouldn't want to wait. We paid close to 90 euros for 3 people + 2.5h x 5 euros for parking to be left speechless by the poor quality and attitude of the staff after telling them we don't like eating expired food. We apologized and told them it was ok, however, we had to rely on others like us overdoing it and coming forward to warn in the reviews. Well.. After they saw that we wouldn't eat their spoiled food, they explained to us that the rules in the Netherlands were as follows: if you don't eat the spoiled meat and vegetables, you have to pay extra, if you complain about the quality, you are punished to stand with an unserved table, we ordered 2 fantas and green tea, they brought us glasses of sparkling juices..it looks like someone has spit in them. We decided to leave after there was no apology or compensation and we were surrounded by the staff almost forcing us to pay for overspending (we didn't eat the spoiled food but otherwise we paid an envelope of 90 euros). things escalated i felt threatened i told them i was going to call the police and consumer protection agency and i would never step foot in their restaurant again they backed down and started insulting us in a foreign language and saying we are not welcome any i would returned to such a low place.
Reasonable Chinese Dim Sum restaurant. A good alternative of the China Town restaurants. But its more on the outer side of the busy city centre. Its right next to the iconic Euromast.
Food was just fine.. the desserts were not delicious. Rude waiter, didn't allow us to sit on the preferred table for no valid reason. Toilets were freezing cold, cold water and no soap was available.
