I recently visited Loetje with my keto buddies, where I could eat a tasty meal. I did not expect that, so my mind is blown. Loetje is a restaurant chain in the Netherlands, and I had no idea it was famous for its beef steak. Damn, now I know why.
Just a few curiosities about Loetjes
- Loetje was closed during the lockdown of 2021 but managed to deliver their famous steaks at home to be enjoyed.
- Loetje sells its own gift card: a special gift for keto friends who love to eat good meat.
- They have more than 20 locations in the whole country. Find all the Loetje locations here.

Loetje Tenderloin
This is Loetje’s specialty – and it is also keto! Plus is delicious, juicy, and tender! The beef tenderloin is cooked medium-rare. Ask the waiter not to bring you the bread. The size of the tenderloin is available in medium and XL.
It is available in 4 different seasonings:
- Beef Tenderloin with Loetje gravy: this is the original taste of the tenderloin. No sauce on it. This is the safest, keto, and best choice at Loetje. You will love the gravy. Gravy is life.
- Beef Tenderloin ‘Bali’, with Loetje sambal gravy: this wouldn’t be my favorite option since sambal usually has some sugar.
- Beef Tenderloin garlic with Loetje garlic gravy: this is what I would order over and over again. I love garlic. And this tenderloin was just amazing.
- Beef Tenderloin ‘De Roode Waard’ with Loetje gravy, onions, chicken livers, and bacon: also a nice choice, tenderloin, with gravy, enriched by onion, chicken livers, and bacon.
- Beef Tenderloin salad ‘Bali’ with Loetje dressing: this is a mixed salad with the tenderloin on it. It contains also veggies not really keto, such as green beans. But hey not a big deal.
