    Excellent food and great ambience. Maybe the only -ve thing is the limited wine list available+ wine prices a bit on the high side.

    Perfect, there was a slight decline in service immediately after post covid reopening but now the business is totally back on track :-) Congratulations to the team !

    The food itself was a bit disappointing given the strength of atmosphere and restaurant feel. The portions were fairly small and not super original, especially compared to the high price. Steak cooked medium/well when ordered rare, crab dish with shell in it, crème brûlée without a brûlée topping - just crème with granola. Staff were very nice but service was a little slow at times. Best point of the restaurant was the wine list, the glasses we drank were excellent.

    Nice setting, good food (not spectacular) and service acceptable. In our opinion it’s overpriced

    Very nice and refined cuisine, not the cheapest in town, especially that the portions are rather small. But overall nice restaurant and kind service.

    I am regularly enjoying this place since cosy, excellent and kind staff and a superbe food. Last evening I had Duck Gyozas and they were simply ... delicious! If around in Brussels, simply do not miss this place. You will not be disappointed.

    Really good food. Atmosphere is cool. Staff are friendly. Only downside is the waiting time between courses. We were at the restaurant for about 2h15 for two courses.

    1 of the 3 ladies serving us was really antipathetic and not professional. For the 2 others ok but also unadapted answers from one of them. For that price you don’t expect only the food to be good...

    Food was great: presentation, size and quality of the ingredients used. Staff was extremely friendly, which helps having a good dinner. And atmosphere was perfect! I'll be back soon...

    Except they didn't apply the Fork discount all is perfect (I didn't dare to claim in front of my guests) : Very good food, nicely prepared and original presentation ! Welcoming and service very professional and friendly together ! Perfect atmosphere for a date, friendship even family (my case) ! Wine choice well selected and worth for the pricing.

    Fantastic meal, special highlights were the marbré de boeuf au fois gras and the canette, however to be frank every single plate was exceptional and harmonising with the others in the menu. Our congrats to the chef and the team that managed well a large amount of guests!

    Food is incredibly good and the atmosphere is lovely - really nice lightning and decoration. Service was super slow, we had to call them several times and when we finally paid (after like 30 minutes waiting) and left, we realised they hadn't applied the 20% discount with The Fork. I contacted them to see if they could reimburse it and they simply said they would apply it on the next visit - not going back with such a service for that price even with excellent food.

    Marvelous 22€/person gastronomic lunch including starter (2 choices) and main dish (2 choices, including veggie lasagna); excellent organic red wine (sold by cm); very nice decoration and atmosphere (rock music from the 80ies, among others). I keep coming back!

    The setting, perfect! The food, perfect! The personalities of the staff, perfect! It is a great place, but it was clearly understaffed, they were full ( it was Tuesday) but we waited almost an hour for drinks, not their fault! They did not stop, and were constantly running with smiles on their faces , trying their best to accommodate everyone. I understand the service industry is extremely difficult and if people are sick, management haven’t scheduled the Rota’s well, last minute bookings etc this is beyond the servers fault.. has the potential to be an amazing all round place, it’s clearly popular, and this should be accommodated by the staffing

    Service was very friendly but a bit chaotic: We had to ask 2-3 times until we got what we asked for, we got a wrong bill (we were charged a bottle of wine instead of just one glass and the 20% discount for the La Fourchette booking was only taken into account upon request).

    Second visit and excellent impression confirmed. outstanding Quality of the products, perfect cooking, impeccable presentation. Attentive service even if a bit slow (too busy at peak time). Cocktails are original and a very very very recommended starter! We’ve have tasted a few different ones and all of them are delicious. Prices are slightly high but reasonable if you consider quality and service. Definitely, we will return.

    5.5/10

    The food was very good, but the service is below acceptable. I called multiple times to get advice on parking (impossible to find in the area at rush hours), but the noise inside made it impossible to communicate, the other person eventually hanged up. Clearly understaffed, everything was late or wrong, despite a general positive and kind attitude : food arrived after more than 1 h, bill was wrong and in the end the reduction for booking via The Fork was not applied. Will not go back. A pity, because with the right management the place could be great.
