Delicious food, not expensive. A little bit loud but it's not a big problem

The Malle Jan used to be one of my dad's favorites and my family and I had dinner there in the past often. So i decided to have dinner last night there again with my daughter. We were received by a friendly waiter and the atmosphere of the restaurant was still cozy and nice as I remembered it from years past. However ,although the service was friendly, it was rather on the slow side bordering on being unattentive..... The food quality was ok but not as good as it used to be. Example: Had an onion soup with almost no onions in it. The Dover Sole had a beautiful size but was a bit overcooked and greasy.The Tarte Tatin resembled more of apple pudding than what a Tarte Tatin should be. I did have a special dietary request which was properly met by the kitchen. Would i come back? Yes but i sincerely hope that some adjustments in kitchen and service will be made.
Good wine selection and very good food. The staff was very accommodating and eager to help. We even wanted a desert not on the menu and they fixed it anyway!! Nice warm and cozy atmosphere.
We enjoy Malle Jan. Surpringly good wines (which -with exceptions- are hard to find in Leiden) accompanying well prepared dishes. The garden helps too (weather allowing) and the service is pleasant.
Very nice food EXTREMELY nice personnel!
