Fantastic staff, wonderful food. When it comes to balance, maybe the main dish a bit bigger. We had a 5 course menu. For the rest amazing experience

9/10Each of our 5 courses was outstanding and beautifully presented. The wine pairings were also excellent (and could be chosen for some or all of the courses). Service was very attentive and professional. The restaurant was relatively quiet when we visited - it deserves to be much busier.

7.5/10We had a 5 course menu. The kitchen responded very flexible to change the main course. The service was very friendly but the Atmosphere in the Team seemed to be a little tensed. The Starters were fantastic, but the Salomon was not on point rather well done and the Entecote was not crispy rather limp. The wine selection was great and generous and altogether we had a very nice evening. .

8/10Me and my wife went there for dinner this last Saturday. The service was good. Quite slow. We had the 5 courses menu with wine pairing. We had: - the minestrone, - the brioche with pata negra and northern crab, - The wild salmon - The calf stew - A pre-dessert and - the dessert, which was based on several chocolates (noir, blanc etc) The wines were very good. 2 austrian, 1 german, 1 french, 1 Italian and 1 tardive vintage with the dessert. We didn’t like the minestrone. It was very poor in flavour. The brioche was very tasty The salmon was very simple. The stew was very good. Pre-dessert and dessert very good also. Total cost: 315€ including 1 amaro and 1 grappa barrique Due to the fact that the only memorable dish was the stew, we consider that it’s expensive. Also because the service was quite slow. They were full, they have around 12 tables and they have only 2 waiters.

8.5/10Order 5 plats dinner with wine marriages. First 2 & disert are somewhat innovative: ingredients & presentationwise. Marriageswuse siguientes three whites are un poco aburrido. After that only single palates of sweets & mundane. I think it needs the changes to Sostener the reputation.

We had a 5 course with wines. The food is good, but it did not blow me away. The wine is good but the flavor are also not exceptional. Good restaurant in Antwerp, better the most of the places. But recipes are conservative.

9.5/10The food and the presentation are excellent, but there are 2 issues: 1) it is expensive 2) I booked for 12 people with 3 weeks notice: they didn't tell me that when there are more than 4 people, they work only with fix menus, at chef choice, with 5 courses (65€/person) or 6 courses. then you have to add drinks. we thought we could order a la carte. instead we spent double of what budgeted.
