Sonoy was former a restaurant located in Emmeloord, in the Netherlands. It was awarded one Michelin star in the period 2010–2013.[2][3][4]

Owner and head chef of Sonoy was Paul van Staveren.[5]

The restaurant was a member of Alliance Gastronomique Néerlandaise since 2006.[6]

Restaurant Sonoy was located in a former water tower, at a height of 40 meters.[7] It occupied four floors. During the transfer from the old restaurant in Blokzijl to this, that took five weeks, the staff was working in De Librije in Zwolle.[8]

In 2010, the restaurant won the "Sustainable Restaurant of the Year"-award from Gault Millau.[9]

The Michelin star awarded in 2010, was the first one ever awarded in the (young) province Flevoland.[10]

In March 2013 the municipality Noordoostpolder, owner of the water tower in which the restaurant is housed, was reviewing the future of the said tower. A failed renovation caused too many problems.[11] The restaurant closed per 1 July 2013.[12] Paul van Staveren got a compensation of about € 275,000, but still lost about half the original investment in the restaurant in 2010 based on a ten-year tenancy contract.[13]
