About

On the Mariaplaats in the heart of Utrecht, Le Jardin has carved out a distinct identity as a fully vegetarian restaurant where vegetables are not a side note — they are the entire story. Chef Tamara de Borst builds seasonal menus in which creativity and depth of flavour take centre stage.

That commitment has earned the restaurant widespread recognition: a Michelin selection, a score of 12/20 from Gault&Millau, and three radishes from We're Smart, the international authority on vegetable-forward gastronomy. A Google rating of 4.4 from nearly 900 reviews confirms that guests feel the same way the guides do.

Le Jardin offers outdoor seating on the Mariaplaats, and an open kitchen inside lets diners follow the craft up close. The restaurant is open Tuesday through Saturday for both lunch and dinner, and reservations can be made online.

Book your table at Le Jardin and experience why vegetables deserve the starring role.

"Midden in de Medina van Marrakech, op het meest chaotische stukje aarde denkbaar, ligt Le Jardin. Een prachtige binnentuin met bistrotafeltjes, een uitstekende keuken (chicken tajine!) en het allerbelangrijkste: loslopende schildpadden. Hier vergeet je even dat nog geen honderd meter verderop duizenden domme toeristen op een gigantisch plein (Jemaa El-Fna) hangen om te kijken naar een stel pijpspelende acrobaten met een aap in hun nek." — Marrakech: op avontuur in de Parel van Marokko
