In the Gravenstraat in Den Burg, you will find Restaurant RJ: a sophisticated restaurant where gastronomy, wine and hospitality converge. Since its founding in 2020 by Jordy Schuijl, RJ has evolved into one of the most talked-about fine dining destinations on Texel. The atmosphere feels stylish and international, while remaining personal and firmly connected to the island.
At RJ, everything revolves around flavour, detail and experience. The Prestige menu forms the heart of the restaurant, featuring multiple courses where seasonal produce, pure flavours and refined techniques take centre stage. Wherever possible, the kitchen works with products from Texel, combined with modern influences and a unique signature. For guests who prefer to curate their own evening, there is also the option to dine à la carte.
Wine plays a major role in the RJ experience. The wine bar boasts more than 800 different wines, a large proportion of which are served by the glass. From elegant classics to exceptional bottles that you won't easily find elsewhere: the wine list has been carefully curated and has already earned RJ several international awards.
What makes Restaurant RJ extra special is the story behind the business. RJ is part of the Schuijl family business, where catering, hospitality and ambition come together. Jordy focuses entirely on Restaurant RJ and the next step towards Hotel Tide in De Koog. This combination of craftsmanship, family spirit and a love for gastronomy makes an evening at RJ more than just dining out. It is a culinary experience that lingers.
