Lovely little restaurant

Have been here twice now with quite some time in between, both times were very enjoyable. The restaurant is set in a regular house, it’s quite small but very intimate / cozy due to this. The small menu consists of (seasonal) vegetarian, vegan and fish dishes. My meal (asparagus gnocchi) was very tasty.

I’d recommend to make a reservation in advance. The only thing the owner(s) can improve to make the experience even better is to invest in some sound-proof / sound-isolating materials as it tends to get very loud when multiple tables are occupied (particularly with larger groups). Besides that: I would definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for a lovely, intimate dinner experience.

Pros: Tasty food , Lovely atmosphere , Friendly staff

Cons: Unfortunately quite loud

great little restaurant

Iris is just a great little restaurant. 100% vegetarian and about 80% organic, tasteful food. Good atmosphere, friendly waitress, great cook. I have been there lots of times and will be back many times.
Just try it, you won't regret.

Pros: 100% vegetarian, tasteful food, friendly waitress

One of the best and oldest around

Iris is an exemplary vegetarian restaurant. It has been in Eindhoven for more than 25 years and it's still run by the same owner, Ineke Stevens, the cook.
Menu changes every week, but some successful dishes are always available. I have had diner at Iris a lot of times ever since the early eighties and the cooking has only become better. Food is always fresh; a salad bar is available with every main dish.
Iris has limited seating, so making a reservation can be useful. The restaurant has two major setbacks: 1) it is open only on thursdays, fridays and saturdays from 5 p.m. & 2) it is very hard to find, in a small street.
The owner's husband Jan Stevens is a book publisher specialising in cookbooks and vegetarian guides.

Pros: excellent food, always fresh, great variety

Cons: limited opening hours, limited seating, hard to find

A very nice little place

Nice atmosphere, good service and excellent food! The food is fresh and menu changes regularly. Would like to go back for sure. Making reservations before would be a good idea as the place fills up pretty quick. Definite thumbs up!

Pros: fresh food, nice variety, good atmosphere

Cons: parking, accessibility

Good all around

Nice quiet atmosphere, friendly service - good food and a great price! the menu changes frequently - there is some standard entrees and such but there is also a weekly change in the menu - i remember i had this arrangement of food - of all kinds of foods - it was a bit of this and a bit of that like onion rings, beets, etc. my husband had some spicy banana chutney and something Indonesian that went with it. the portions were good i didn't feel like there was not enough food - it was plenty - but not too much either. yum yum. i'd probably go there again.
