The Best Seafood Near Versaen, by the Record

Two doors, two moods: the left opens into a chic seafood restaurant, the right into a brasserie where the menu swings from classic French to Mediterranean to Asian without losing its footing. Fish runs through both sides, though the brasserie's range is broad enough to pull in anyone at the table. A Michelin Bib Gourmand and a spot on the Lekker 500 keep it busy with locals who know the room well.

A handsomely converted old building in Naarden, with a terrace that fills up fast when the sun shows. This is a seasonal seafood restaurant, the kind where the plateau de fruits de mer is the main event and the fish changes with whatever's running. Meat eaters aren't entirely abandoned, but the kitchen's heart is clearly in the shells and fins. Chic without being stiff, and the kind of room that makes you order one more course.
