Luzt Gastrobar в Эйндховене

Went yesterday again with a friend for the cocktails and bites. I changed my mind for the review. Service deserves 6 stars! So total 15 stars. Was here with a friend last week. Service was very good, all of them had a smile and were polite. They have a different menu for people who wants something more special then the standard burgers and fries of the neighbors. We ordered small bites, which are delicious, but some extra options would be nice. The Negroni was delicious. For sure we will be back for more and hope there are some more bites to select.

It took a while... but after several attempts and several take aways during covid I finally found my way back to Luzt. This time on a random tuesday we just walked in and were allowed to select a table on their roomy outside seating. After receiving our very nice cocktails we took a look at the menu. Everything on the menu sounded tasty, so we choose nothing and opted for the 3 course surprise menu with 3 half glass accompanying wines. It was just a tuesday after all... I must mention at this point that we had been helped by two different people and had very pleasant experience with both of them. Informal, cheerful and fun. We were in a good mood too and felt very welcome and appreciated because of it, joking and having fun with our hosts. A tasty little amuse appeared and we were served our first wine by our third host of the evening, also a very pleasant lady who interacted with us very nicely too. A vinho verde and fish starter which was beautifully presented set the tone, this was going to be a tasty evening. Our main was accompanied by a very good primitivo and obviously the meat dish of the evening. Very tasty and good portions, this dish was also on the a la carte menu I believe. Which is a bit less of surprise but no complaints there as it was one of the best choices in my opinion. Instead of a desert we opted for the cheese and a PX and 10 year old Tawny. Again royal portions of high quality cheeses. One of them locally sourced, two english ones and one from Italy if I recall correctly. Nice mix and some nice snacks to go with the cheese, although we weren't too enthusiastic about the glazed pecans as the grapes and marmalade provided enough sweets to go with the cheese and plain nuts would have been nicer... but now I'm just being excessively critical about an otherwise close to perfect evening. Minor detail, table water was offered to us and refreshed without asking during the whole duration of our stay, which is nice. We remain amazed this place can exist on 'de Markt' between the McDonalds, KFC and Five Guys. The contrast is almost surreal. Sit on de Markt but enjoy great food just like your on Dommelstraat or Kleine Berg. Hopefully my next visit won't take 4 years! Original 4 year old review below. The value for money received at Luzt is insane. We had the two (or three) person lunch platter which was absolutely packed with goodies ranging from oysters and beef to cheesy balls and sliced sausage, and much more. For almost the same price we could of crossed the market square and would been disappointed by a more traditional 'twaalf uurtje'. The waiter from Doyy tipped us about Luzt and we are very happy he did, we'll be back for dinner!
