Comfort bistro food, priced at true cost
Seasonal comfort-bistro dishes at MARKD. are priced at what they actually cost, with fair wages built into the model instead of tacked on as a marketing line. The menu shifts with the seasons and stays short.
Xiadong Yeh and Alexander van Weelde, the duo behind Toujours, opened it on the Damstraat in September 2025. It's their second Haarlem restaurant, a handful of dishes chosen with care rather than a long list to scroll through.

wonderful food and service, from the starter, main course to dessert, very tasty and fresh, what I also like is there is an open kitchen so you can see the amazing chefs prepping, food was bought to the table asap, and the quality and taste was great. Noise levels are also ok for talking as there's space between tables. Great to see the menu expanding too. (only one suggestion for the fries, be great to get the mayo on the side) rather then over the fries)

The food is good. The service is good. The price is good. Funnily, when ik entered i thought: hmm. Lots of young people working here, nice interior, probably a “concept”. To me and my long term friend’s surprise the food was really good. The taste was not standard. Not the usual selection and finish. Also the service was attentive without being pushy. This was a refreshing experience. We had the pheasant with beans. Really nice. Also the rest was good. Pate (entre) was original, not like the french pate (normally completely cooked in oven) you would normally get but an original one with half cooked (smoked?) ham inside. Never had something like this but it was tasty. All in all. Great diner experience.

We visited for a mid-week dinner and found the atmosphere pleasantly balanced, not too busy, yet lively enough. We were given a lovely table by the window with plenty of space. The meal was absolutely delicious, with beautifully balanced flavours throughout. One of the highlights was having the chef himself serve and explain each dish. The cocktails were expertly crafted, and our server was both kind and attentive. A wonderful dining experience all around, thank you to the team for such a memorable evening. We’ll definitely be back!

We decided to go with the four course meal. We enjoyed each course except for the monkfish course. That was inedible. However, the scallops and tenderloin were incredible. The focaccia bread and dessert were tasty as well. Two waiters helped us interchangeably. One was very helpful. The other was nice as well but didn’t wipe the table when we mentioned it was dusty. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice and beautifully decorated.

Excellent fine dining experience around the corner of the main church of Haarlem. Definitely try the penne tartufo with truffle. In terms of decor, modern interior and open kitchen in the back where you can see your food being prepared in front of a beautiful glass wine vault.
