    Excellent restaurant. Went on. Saturday night where one can only have either a 4, 5 or 6 course menu. Can’t order a La carte. I had the four a d my husband has the five. Every course was beautifully presented and delicious…particularly the veal. Unbelievably tender. We did the wine pairings as well…all were very nice and well explained. You can watch them working in the kitchen which is always fun. Excellent service. Would absolutely go back!

    This restaurant could easily grab a 1st Michelin star, as the chef and the staff allowed my girlfriend and I to experience a very enjoyable evening! The 4-dishes set menu was very inventive and tasteful. A special mention to the starter plate (roast tomato and varied vegetables) and to the dessert (pear sorbet with white chocolate mousse). The restaurant is not affordable but I definitely recommend it if you want to treat yourself to an excellent meal in a relaxed atmosphere. Thanks and congratulations again to the kitchen and front staff!

    What a wonderful experience. Found the restaurant easily. Nice and warm inside. The waitress greeted us on arrival. Explained the menu and offered us drinks. The food was a set menu with various additions. We went for the 4 courses. Served with an amuse bouche of pickled mackerel in sherry vinegar. Every course was explained, describing the ingredients. Enjoyable evening with wonderful food

    A lovely restaurant. Very interesting food and wonderful service. Lots of vegetables with delicious sauces and foams that gave depth of flavour. It was not that full because we came on a Monday night but the service more than made up for this.

    What a wonderful find just outside of the bustling city center. This husband and wife run business offer the freshest seasonal dishes paired with fantastic wines. We were honored with their personal touches that made the meal feel like home cooking with a few foods we have never tried before our visit. The ambiance is that of a high end restaurant packaged in an intimate, country kitchen style setting. An amazing treat and the best meal we had in our visit to Belgium. Thank you

    The food was amazing, although selection is very limited. Open Kitchen allows the diner to watch the meticulous preparation of each dish. Each course was thoroughly creative and the presentation was equally creative.

    We had a very nice and balanced dinner. We choose the 6-course menu and got a great wine with each course. The food is very good and tasteful. Really recommend going to this nice restaurant!

    Nice place, nice waiters, good food in general. A bit disappointed by the main dish with a lack of taste and a burnt mash potatoes.

    B23Owner

    We are sorry you were disappointed with the main course. And we're even more sorry that you tasted burnt potato mash. We think that you have tasted nutmeg (grated from a bulb, not already ground from a jar, it tastes different). The mashed potatoes were not burnt. We are very sorry that you have not tasted the flavors of our refined cuisine. All dishes are freshly prepared without adding ready-made products. The waiting time took a little longer for you because you changed 2 dishes in the menu. As a result, you had to pay a supplement, which is of course quite normal. The normal price is €65 for 4 courses including 2 appetizers and bread with extra virgin olive oil and herb butter. Despite everything, thank you for review

    This restaurant was fab. We went for a 4 course lunch on Sunday 17th July 2022. Only 2 other tables had people at them when we arrived, another couple came for drinks only and by the time we left three hours later there was nobody else in the restaurant however this did not distract from the amazing food and experience. The husband and wife team that run this restaurant were great. The wife runs the front of the restaurant and was very pleasant and not intrusive she gave us plenty of time between courses and spent a little time talking to us every time she came to the table. Both my husband and I cannot fault any of the four courses we ate. The food was amazing. After touring round Europe for 3 weeks this was definitely the best meal we had and the little extras just made it that little more special. I would definitely recommend this little gem of a restaurant

    We booked this restaurant in advance because the chef worked at some Michelin star restaurants before starting his own business. We ordered the 5 stage menu and every stage was just perfect. All made from fresh ingredients, beautifully presented and with the best sauces we have tasted in a long time. Definitely worthwhile to visit and we will return on here our next trip to Antwerp.

    The house cocktail is nice, the little finger food is good. However the crab cake still has some little bones inside. The duck dish taste like instant food, really should move off the menu . The children dish is good and with a very reasonable price, thank you. The main course and the desert really delicious. They have lots of good wine to choose too.

    We had a really lovely evening. The food was excellent. The staff very friendly but the service was very slow. It was over an hour before we had our starter. Having said that I would certainly go back in the hope that the service would be quicker.

    B23Owner

    Thank you, we are aware that you have had a long wait for your starter. We are sorry. I'm glad you enjoyed your meal. We look forward to seeing you next time!

    Price for the entrecôte was too high. One of them was over cooked though we ordered blue chaud. We were underwhelmed to put it discretely. We were positively surprised however by the wine list. And the staff was more than friendly.

    B23Owner

    sir, according to our waiter you ordered 1 sirloin steak blue and madam ordered a point. he asked twice. It is also much easier for the kitchen to serve 2 sirloin steaks blue than 1 a point and 1 blue. Also, our meat is of very good quality and the price is correct! You have been asked twice if you like the food, you indicated that everything was tasty. Also, you both ate all your meat. We don't understand why you wrote a review, but don't say anything to us when we ask if everything is okay and everything tastes good. And why a 2 for atmosphere? We have a nice warmy decorated restaurant. And you gave a good tip too. We don't understand this all.....

    Came here with friends 8 people in total to celebrate our anniversaries. Atmosphere and deco was nice. Staff were friendly which is a plus. Only thing is that most of our main courses wasn’t presented as expexted. Me and other friends ordered entrecote and it was only a chunk of meat on the plate with no decoration at all. Two friends who ordered a different dish were decorated nicely. But at least I enjoyed the dessert a lot.

    By the moment of our arrival we were waiting outside for a bit and not being accompanied to our table.There were so much issues as the main head of the house wasn’t speaking/understanding proper English/French as given us the menu just in Flemish.She didn’t understood that both of my friends wanted steak well done and the waitress brought up two rares one(super bloody) and A replied if it is possible to just grill it a bit more.Apparently the chef cooked a new piece of meat for 30-40 min.If you prefer a steak please abandon because ur waiting time will be double.Plus my dessert never arrived at the table as it was on the main order and above of felting offended that my friend declined the food the host blocked the all order at the table(as my dessert never arrived) and the truffle sauce was a mix of burnt fat and no flavour at all.Undiplomatic behaviour and totally impolite from the head host such a revenue aka menu and pricing.it was a terrible experience and I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone to share dinner or lunch.
