Food is fine; service was terrible. The waiters never checked in after giving us the plates. Staff seemed overtaxed when the place wasn’t full. Further, they don’t accept Visa or Mastercard which is a no-go for a place that’s visited by tourists

When we arrived, we saw a sign at the front of the restaurant that said they do not accept payment by credit or debit card. We did not have cash with us so we left and found someplace else to eat. This information about cash only payment was not on their website nor given to us when we made the reservation.

Very nice location on sunny days. The waiters had a lot to do so we had to wait to order. The food also took a while. We orderd the beef well done but it was bloody. The rest of the food was good. The waiters were friendly and in a good mood. It was an ok experience.

The food was excellent, and portion sizes were large. If you're considering a starter, I recommend ordering only one to share with others. The mussels and fries were outstanding. My wife enjoyed the sausage with potatoes. The gravy on this dish was some of the best I've ever tasted. Service could've been a little better, but it wasn't atypical for Europe.

The food was tasty and the server pleasant. The service was a bit slow, but there appeared to be only two servers and a large number of guests. It wasn’t a significant issue, and the food made up for it.

We had a good time, the moules frites were great and portions were big; service was fast and precise. The restaurant is welcoming and relaxed, we were not rushed to order more or leave. It’s touristy, but then again it’s very central and if you choose to go to a place in this area you can’t expect otherwise. I recommend it and I’ll be back.

Nice service, but charged an extra 10x when paying. A few bad blueshells in my serving made the day after a loose one.

there is not much to add, whatever happened, happened and they must fix it internally

Good was good, not great. Service is slow. The restaurant does not accept credit cards, but the sign is small and lowly placed. When you try to pay with credit card, then they point to the little sign which is not obvious.
