Paul van Waarden was a distinguished fine dining establishment situated in Rijswijk, Netherlands. It held a prestigious Michelin star continuously from 2002 through 2012. The restaurant experienced a major challenge when it lost its Michelin star in 2013, leading to attempts to engage with the Michelin Guide for clarification. Despite these efforts, the business ultimately declared bankruptcy and ceased operations on 21 March 2013.
In the same year, GaultMillau awarded the restaurant a score of 13 out of 20 points.
The restaurant’s head chef and eponym was Paul van Waarden. Initially, the venue operated under the name De keuken van Waarden in Wassenaar before relocating to Rijswijk in 2001 and adopting the name Paul van Waarden.
