Tiel. Food. Courage. Wine. Character. And nothing more.

At Tiel, distinct flavours are everything. We are creative cuisine, not frivolous frills. Truly delicious food, courageously crafted. Inspired by the Mediterranean, delivered with a uniquely Rotterdam twist. Tiel is the place where character and attention triumph over pretentious presentation to result in dishes that truly stop you in your tracks.

Tom Tieleman's passion for wine shines bright in a proudly daring list where established classics rub shoulders with unexpected discoveries. All are selected with the utmost care to perfectly complement our food. Personally curated, delightfully surprising and a pleasure for the palate.

Meet our chefs

Rik Roovers, the chef who brings Tiel's cuisine to life.

I'm as passionate about creating dishes that deliver an explosion of distinct, pure flavours and unexpected combinations as I am about classic Mediterranean cuisine.

My kitchen is a place of calm, built on teamwork and good organisation with a touch of humour and playfulness. I believe the best dishes are created in an environment where creativity, knowledge and collaboration come together.

Follow my culinary journey and be inspired by the flavours I bring to life!

We don't do web shops. We do good taste. And that extends to caps, shirts and bottles of Portuguese Terra de Zambujeiro that can be bought at Tiel.

You can buy our merch in the restaurant or order by emailing welcome@tielrotterdam.nl and collecting from us.
