    It's always more pleasant to be able to leave a nice review. However, it is impossible this time. The place had our reservation, the wine was good and they also were aware of our 50 euro Yums discount, so far so good. We ordered drinks first and then food - rather quickly - but had to wait ca. 45 minutes for starters and the same for main. The only very good dish was my starter (oeuf poché), the rest was about average. This restaurant aims at being posh, so the portions are tiny while there are no small dishes served in between the ordered food, which is usually the case in this type of places, and just three half-slices of bread served between starter and main. I ate in many good restaurants, including Michelin-starred ones, and I never left hungry. This time, I did. They also had two big noisy groups that ruined our experience - I never saw restaurants that small (one room) to accomodate groups. If I had to pay the 122 euro bill in full, I would be angry. So I'm just disappointed.

    Wonderful food in a lovely surrounding. The staff was very humble and the menu well designed. The best dinner we had on our Brussels weekend trip!

    We dined here on our last day in Brussels. We arrived 30 mins earlier than our reservation, which they kindly accomodated our request. The waitress was attentive throughout our time there. Food was well-portioned, made with fresh ingredients and were all very flavourful. Quick serving times. Highly recommended. We will return again for sure !

    Disappointing and really expensive. The venue for the NY eve diner was relocated to another location. Neither decoration nor background music in the building. No welcome drink. Limited choice if beverages. All expensive. Friendly but the staff were not professional. More like extras. Close before midnight, which is surprising for that event. Food ok but nothing really exceptional

    Lovely bistro, with very kind trilingual service. The menu card is limited but the food is delicious and prepared with healthy quality ingredients. Some dishes could have had a slightly larger portion, but apart from that this is highly recommended.

    We’ve made a reservation at this restaurant for dinner. The food was delicious, it was a mix between french and italian cuisine. Service was also fast and really pleasant. Definitely worth at least a try.

    They charged us twice, and when we called to notice them, they didn't seem to care and told us to send a message with our credentials on an empty box. Food is average, our entry was terrible but the main dish was good. Quite expensive compared to what you get. On the bright side, the waiters were charming and I believe the double billing was an honest mistake.

    Dear Johanna, we thank you for your review. Unfortunately, you are not specific enough so that we could not use your comments in our continuous improvement cycle. We are thus thinking from a statistic viewpoint that the majority of our clients appreciate the high quality of our food, from the quality of products till the finest presentation.

    The flavour of the dishes and presentations are memorable, only surpassed by the extraordinary service of Greg and Judita, they went the extra mile to charge my phone, gave suggestions on the amount of food we ordered and bringing special treats for my 18 month old. It was a happy experience. Make sure to have a reservation as it was packed because of its well gained reputation.

    Enjoyed the outdoor seating, food was excellent but wine by the glass selection was not up to the same quality. Belgian sparkler advertised as "Champagne" on the menu.

    This small restaurant in the center of Brussels was a pleasant discovery! We went for Easter lunch: The staff is very welcoming and the chef David delighted us with his very particular dishes. If I ever visit the city again I will definitely stay here again
