We are Ayla and you are always welcome; 7 days a week, 365 days a year, from 8 in the morning until midnight. With us, the scents of an Italian trattoria, the colors of a Greek taverna, the flavors of a North African bazaar and the hectic bustle of a Spanish mercado tumble over one another. You will be overwhelmed in the most positive sense of the word.

We are the place you want to be, where you come home and invite others as if it was your own living room. You come to us for our amazing flavor combinations, the unexpected encounters, the ultimate freshness of our products, the un-Dutch organized chaos, the personal service and our unique home-brewed drinks. Standing in line is something you take for granted, because that’s where your experience begins; cosmopolitan and unmistakably Rotterdam at the same time.

Het Wapen is located in the heart of Willemstad. Inspired by the nearby marina, Het Wapen has a contemporary interior with the look and feel of a luxury cruise ship. Comfortable sofas, cozy seating and chairs and bar stools upholstered in a dark green, soft fabric of high quality. But also distinctive windows, brass and marble are reflected in the furnishings. From their table, visitors have a view of the heart of the restaurant: a cozy bar, a homarium filled with lobster and displayed fish on ice. The menu features mostly fresh seafood. Great oysters, lobster prepared in different variations and fantastic King crab. All of course fresh daily and on display in the eye-catching fish showcase from which you can choose your own dish. But meat lovers are also right at home. In the restaurant you will find a Dry aged meat cabinet for meat of the best quality.

Sijf is the place in the middle of Rotterdam where you can unwind. Hidden between the ever increasing high-rise buildings and the hustle and bustle of the city. An old-fashioned brown café where you are served in the traditional, jovial Rotterdam way by a team for whom nothing is too much. A place where happiness is still very common, and where you can enjoy specialty beer and Burgundian food.

Going against the current, you achieve something special… Retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city and let yourself be seduced by the temptations of the Zalmhuis. Eat top quality and freshly caught fish, dream away in the elusive interior or enchant your guests with the best party.

The Zalmhuis wants to be it all for you, the place for making great memories. The Zalmhuis has a rich history, drawing people from all over the country for over a century. Once for fetching and eating Maas caught salmon, now for extended dining, drinking, celebrating and socializing. The remarkable landmark building was completely renovated and redecorated in 2020. This striking interior exudes the big city atmosphere of warmth, hospitality and luxury. The kitchen was given a prominent and visible place at the top of the stairs, where it presents its fresh fish and meat daily. The Zalmhuis welcomes you all day in the Grand Café and offers several separate rooms for organizing your own dinner, drinks, meeting or party.

The Wester Pavilion, or “WP” is also called the living room of Rotterdam, here you can go from morning to night. Wonderfully casual and one of the best summer terraces in the city

A club restaurant where you can have a la carte breakfast and high end dining. Where you can be yourself and show it. Where we break free from conventions. And where life is celebrated. At the center of the city. Because the dock worker is allowed to show himself. The “don’t bullshit, but polish” story is outdated. This is the new Rotterdam. It’s not what you do, it’s how you do it. It’s about how it’s made. It’s about how you tell it. It’s about how you move. It’s about how it tastes.
