About
Tucked away at 't Wed 3a in the heart of Utrecht, Madeleine has established itself as one of the city's most celebrated restaurants. The accolades speak for themselves: a 13.5/20 from Gault&Millau, a strong 4.3 on Google across 752 reviews, and — most tellingly — the title of Bistronoom van het Jaar 2026 (Bistro of the Year).
Chef Rik de Jonge channels a genuine passion for French cuisine, combining quality ingredients with flavourful garnishes and well-crafted sauces. His cooking reveals a confident sense of balance and craftsmanship, all served up in a lively, atmospheric setting that has recently been refreshed with an interior upgrade.
Madeleine is open from Tuesday through Sunday starting at noon, and from 5 PM on Mondays — making it equally suited to a relaxed lunch or an evening out. Outdoor seating and vegetarian options ensure there is something for every guest.
Book your table at Utrecht's Bistro of the Year — and taste exactly why the accolades keep coming.
