Rooden Hoed Review

This pleasant, old-fashioned restaurant is the oldest in Antwerp, having been in business for more than 250 years. It serves good, hearty food, a mix of old-style regional cuisine and trendy new forms, at moderate prices. Mussels, a delicious choucroute d'Alsace (sausages with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes), chicken waterzooi, and fish specialties are all featured on the menu. Try an aperitif, or a snack, in the medieval cellar under the restaurant.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
