What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Gastrobar Elvy boasts stunning panoramic views of Rotterdam and creative cocktails that draw praise from visitors. While the ambiance and unique decor are highly appreciated, some reviewers note that the food, while decent, doesn't quite match the spectacular scenery, and service can occasionally be slow or lack attentiveness.
"I loved this place. Excellent service and staff super friendly. One of the best views over Rotterdam. Drinks were great and food was good . Done expect fine dinning . I seen some reviews complaining about 20 euro deposit. This is no problem as it stops people booking who don't turn up. I did find a lot of smoking (yuck) but I is an outside terrece . What was amazing how chill it was ."

"This gastrobar has a crazy view on Rotterdam skyline and this made us fall in love with the place.
We booked a table on the website and so we could sit in the terrace and that set a very good vibe for us. Anyway, even with the reservation we had to wait inside for almost 20 minutes to be able to have a table outside.
As for the drinks, they are good; the service is okay but not too professional.
In general the bar has a very unique style.
I reccomand this place for a fun and unique night with a fantastic view on Rotterdam skyline!"

"Had a great experience, lots of laughs with my friends. Great place for great views and pictures in the golden hour sunset.
The food was ok. Not as memorable as the views. There is room for improvement. Food is mostly cold.
I would prefer more warm dishes.
They do have nice cocktails and drinks.
Service was great. I forgot to thank the nice blonde lady who serviced us.
So thank you!
Atmosphere was great. Outside the music is enjoyable however inside its a bit loud. But overall no complaints from me."
