    Such a nice corner around brussels where portuguese flavours can be tasted. I went with a group of 6 and we were nicely welcomed by Sr. Domingos which pleased us with very nice and attentive service. Will come back definitely.

    Au Cor de Chasse is a hidden gem in Brussels, offering an authentic taste of Portuguese cuisine in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. During my visit, I tried two specialties: the caldeirada and vinho verde, and both were truly exceptional. The caldeirada, a traditional Portuguese fish stew, was a masterpiece. Made with the freshest seafood, tender potatoes, and a flavorful broth, it showcased the impeccable quality of the ingredients. Every bite was rich and satisfying, reflecting the chef's mastery in bringing out the best of each element. The vinho verde, light, crisp, and slightly fruity, was the perfect pairing for the meal. It added a refreshing touch, enhancing the flavors of the stew without overpowering them. The chef at Au Cor de Chasse clearly takes great pride in the dishes, delivering authentic flavors with exceptional presentation. The staff provided excellent service, striking the perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness, making the dining experience eve

    If you’re looking for a dining experience where quality meets hospitality, Chez Maria is the place to be. We dined as a couple and indulged in an exquisite menu: a suite of clams, crispy cod croquettes, and a delightful goat cheese starter. For mains, we had the oven-baked cod and a hearty fish soup, followed by a shared dessert, a bottle of white wine, and a coffee to finish. The food quality was simply exceptional—each dish prepared with care and bursting with flavor. The owner was incredibly kind and convivial, making us feel right at home. The atmosphere was peaceful, and the restaurant itself was impeccably clean. The total bill came to €142 for two, which is not cheap, but absolutely worth every cent for the superb food and experience. Chez Maria is a must-visit for those who appreciate fine cuisine and warm hospitality.

    Restaurant Review: Au Cor de Chasse Au Cor de Chasse is a delightful Portuguese restaurant in Brussels, offering a truly authentic taste of Portugal in a charming, intimate setting. This small but welcoming establishment captures the heart of Portuguese cuisine with its bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and a warm, homey atmosphere. The menu showcases the best of Portugal, from perfectly grilled seafood to hearty meat dishes. The bacalhau à brás (codfish) and arroz de marisco (seafood rice) are standout options, brimming with traditional flavors. The wine list is equally impressive, featuring a variety of Portuguese wines, including excellent Vinho Verde and robust reds. The service is exceptional; the staff are not only friendly but also passionate about their culture and cuisine, often offering insights into the dishes and their origins. The cozy decor, with subtle Portuguese touches, enhances the dining experience.

    My very first experience with “The Fork” and I couldn’t have asked for better. The restaurant is small and super cosy, the food is amazing, mainly made with 100% authentic Portuguese ingredients, everything was explained until the very small detail. The owner was amazing, we felt like we were at home, that we knew him for decades. Such an amazing vibe, the music Fado playing, all the experience was fenomenal. We will definitely come back in the nearest future, especially to celebrate special days. Thank you so much sir Domingos. Muito muito obrigada por nos receber.

    The owner of the restaurant greeted us with the warmest welcome. He made the effort to explain all dishes in English, about which he seemed to be super passionate. The atmosphere was chill and authentic, and last but not least, I've had the best seafood experience of my life. I highly recommend the grilled octopus and sepia combo with black rice + coriander garnish.
