Not that awesome vegan cheese fondue - Edit
Yesterday I chose the vegan cheese fondue made of cashews the menu said, but for me and my friend it the fondue itself had no taste at all. Sure the plate with it looked and tasted great but I would choose something else next time.
Read moreThe location is nice and the vegan cheese cake was delicious, the staff were very friendly and told me they would inform the kitchen about the fondue.
Pros: A lot vegan choices, Nice interior , Friendly staff

Good food, nice atmosphere - Edit
The place looks nice inside and the food is very comforting. I wouldn’t recommend the vegan cashewfondue though, it’s not very good unfortunately. The staff is always very nice and I like coming here from time to time 😊

Nice, but inconsistent - Edit
Really nice place, beautiful old building with nice staff, pricy but good food, though the two times i have visited were very different, perhaps it was our ordering, though both were with large enough groups to get most of the available dishes, the second menu wasn't quite as nice.
Read morePros: Great food, Cozy, nice drink selection
Cons: Pricier than some, not lots of options

Nice place in beautiful building. - Edit
We were there at a cold winterday in february. It's a very nice place but it was very very cold inside. We started with the plate with 4 appetizers. It was rediculously small especially for 4 persons. Costs: 30 euro's. The main dishes were also small and doesn't have extraordinary taste. Because everything was so small its very expensive. All four of us were still hungry afterwards so if you're hungry we would suggest to go somewhere else.
Read morePros: veggie and vegan options
Cons: Expensive and cold place in wintertime

Wow - Edit
We had dinner in the Hagedis with a big group of colleagues. The restaurant is located in a beautiful, atmospheric building. The staff is very friendly and made us feel welcome. They serve very good organic, vegetarian and vegan food and the wine is splendid! We had such an amazing dinner here. Will do it again soon.

Always a good experience - Edit
I've been to de Hagedis many times, and have always had positive experiences. Nowadays they work with 2 weekly changing menus, with only the (cashew) fondue on the standard menu. 1 of the weekly menus is vegan and gluten free, for those who need that. They make wonderful desserts and the food is built up of creative, tasty combinations. So far the best vegetarian restaurant in town for diner!

Pros: Weekly changing menu, Clearly labeled vegan options, Lovely desserts
Cons: A bit pricy

Fantastic! - Edit
The restaurant clearly listened to the feedback of being slow cause the food came out fast and furious for us (almost too fast! But honestly the service was top notch). We thoroughly enjoyed three course meal. The food was truly excellent and at 15 euros, we found it to be quite a good deal as well. I would highly recommend this restaurant!

good but expensive - Edit
most NL restaurants are very expensive and this is not an exception. HOwever the place is absolutely beautiful and both times I went the food was excellent. Just avoid the starters with humous: they were ridicolously small amounts for the price we paid. The cashew fondue is a genious invention if you are vegan, but you must like the cashew nuts - very tasty. The people working there are very friendly and they tend to eat at the table beside you at late hours, which is nice... I liked it. Pity it is far from the centre.
Read morePros: good food, nice environment, professional
Cons: price!!!, price!!!

A must while in the Hague - Edit
This is a fairly busy restaurant, so you may want to try to make reservations (they seemed unimpressed when we showed up without them, but we were still seated). Also, the service was very slow, but once you have a glass of wine you won't mind the wait (the building is beautiful).
Read moreThey have a well-marked English menu where vegan options are marked with a "V", making it easy to order. We couldn't pass up the opportunity to have the cashew "cheese" fondue, which was very good and fun to eat! It came with a lovely selection of breads and roasted vegetables for dipping. We also ate a rhubarb tart which was excellent.
A great place for kids, we were travelling with our baby and they have a little room full of toys where he could play to make the long wait for food easier.
Pros: vegan options, healthy food, large portions
Cons: busy, slow service

a special place - Edit
As stated in the previous review, the restaurant setting is special, with a lot of character.
Read moreHad some trouble deciding between the two daily specials, since they were both appealing. In the end, we were happy with our choices. Both the food and service were good.
Also nice was the diversity of clientele--families with small children, tourists, hippies.
Pros: architecture & decor, decaf & "bambu" coffee
Cons: no alcohol-free fondue

Wonderful dinner - Edit
The staff were kind but not very alert. We were early but still had to wait quite some time before we could order. This gave us ample time too look at the beautiful interior with the original tiling and woodwork. A recurring theme in the decoration are lizards; "hagedis" is Dutch for lizard. The name is probably also wordplay on "The Hague" and "dish".
Read moreThe menu mainly offers a choice of several pasta dishes, cheese fondues and both a dish and a special for the day. There are several vegan options too. For drinks the most common alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are available. We took pumpkin/curry soup and farmers' bread for starters, which we enjoyed very much. We continued with the special, a filled zucchini with fried potatoes and carrots, joined by a fresh salad. The parts as well as the combination proved to be delicious. For dessert we split: apple cake and chocolate cake; both were served with some icecream and tasted great: rich but not overpowering. In all we had a wonderful dinner and we will most certainly return.
Pros: tasty food, beautiful location
