    One off or if not the best restaurant in the city centre of Antwerp! Very pleasantly surprised! Food and drinks was a journey of taste and service was simply superb! Will definitely highly recommend and looking forward being back in the very near future

    This is the second time at this restaurant. The food offering is fantastic. It ranks among one of the best restaurants in I have visited in Antwerp. Service was great with knowledgeable staff and a very good wine selection. I would highly recommend.

    We 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. .

    Me 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.

    A classy restaurant despite being in the middle of the tourist area. Well spaced tables, excellent food very tastefully presented with friendly but professional staff. Highly recommended for a special occasion.

    Order 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.

    Amazing food, service, drinks, atmosphere. We loved everything. The quality was there, some plates took a while to come out but the taste and flavour made up for it. We will be back

    The 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.

    The staff was really welcoming and friendly. We took the surprise menu and shared that one of us has lactose intolerance. The kitchen took this serious and made small adjustments to the dishes. Food was super tasty and nicely presented. Think this resto is on the way for a 1 star michelin.

    It was overall good bt not really suitable for family w young kids and not only Italian specialised. We missed some choice for kids and easy meals. But it is otherwise refined cuisine for adults w big kids. T waitress was nice and welcoming. I think I may hav overlooked in ur recommendations whether this is family friendly. Maybe it would be good to highlight as well in ur recommendation. I just checked t rating.... Thanks, Emilie
