Fodor's Expert Review Le Haricot Vert
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
In a 17th-century building that once housed the staff of the nearby Noordeinde palace, Le Haricot Vert is a popular haunt for locals who come to enjoy good food in an intimate, candlelit atmosphere. Every possible wall surface is hung with china, sections of stained glass, pictures, and mirrors, and the overall effect is one of beguiling romantic clutter. Dishes such as grilled sardines with ratatouille, and lamb fillet served with rosemary and sweet peppers, combine Dutch classics with French flair. The menu changes seasonally, so you can expect irresistible asparagus in spring and game in winter.
