    Very nice place and the staff were very pleasant. Be aware if you order anything that’s not on the menu. For example side salad. Always ask the cost. This restaurant is expensive but very nice. Would definitely return

    Very nice, low-key Italian restaurant in the centre of Bruxelles. Welcoming and friendly staff. Great food. Loved their Fegato alla Veneziana!

    We showed up as soon as they opened at 6:30 and were the first to arrive. The front waiter was friendly and took our order around 6:40. Food was good, not great. The owner was not very friendly. The worst part was that we did not get our food until 7:45. Three guests who came in after us weee served first. Hmm. Our kids eat plain pasta so we ordered that for them, but they cost just as much as my entree! They charged for water, and the wine pours were minimal. We won’t go back. Overly priced in my opinion.

    My husband and I are traveling with 2 friends in Belgium. This restaurant was in our top 3 restaurants we ate at during our 10 day stay. It's a small and cozy restaurant. The staff was excellent and helpful. The veal Limone was delicious; the pasta was excellent and a nice wine list. Highly recommend this restaurant.

    This restaurant is perfect if you are looking for an nice and cozy atmosphere (be aware it’s quite small so you are sitting close to other people). The food was really good!

    This restaurant was a real discovery. The food was very tasty and the service very attentive. The house wine was excellent. After dinner we had to leave for AB for a concert. Someone from the service was kind enough to go outside and to explain to us more clearly which way to follow. We'll be back, this is for sure.

    Very tasty food - a good contrast to the alternatives we saw. Clearly food that was cooked on the premises from scratch. Shame about brussels though....

    A lovely place with great staff and amazing food. The place was very full on a Wednesday, but thankfully we could still make a reservation. The two men serving us were so attentive and helpful. The food was so so so good, the tortellini al tartufo especially was insanely good. Thank you so much, we will be back!!!

    I found this restaurant while lost in Brussels. The number one reason I chose this restaurant was because of the fireplace. However, the food was excellent as was the atmosphere. We will definitely visit again when in Brussels.

    This restaurant completely arruined my Christmas plan. I booked the restaurant using the fork for Christmas Eve. I received a text half an hour before my dinner time cancelling it. And I have a toddler who was tired and hungry. Avoid this restaurant if you can.

    Really, really good pasta. The chef made a simple pasta and tomato sauce a work of art. The special of ravioli was also stunning. It's a shame I don't live in Brussels, as I would be back.

    Friendly staff. Food was very tasty. We had the meat board to share as an Entrée. I had the tagliatelle Bolognese and it was very tasty! My husband had the carbonara and he loved it too. Very nice food!

    The restaurant has a cosy setting and the fireplace creates a romantic and warm atmosphere. The food is fresh, including the pasta. The only downside we observed was the price of the dishes which was expensive. The appetizers were almost the same price as the main dishes.

    The food was really good. Service is poor. Not friendly and welcoming. When I arrived and mentioned I had a booking they looked oblivious and didn’t ask for name just said choose table. Had asked in the booking for special requirements (it was a birthday) and nothing! So I’m sure they not even looking at the booking requests they are getting. Over all service is really not friendly. After the main dish the waiter didn’t bother to return to table to ask if we wanted desert - I had to grab his attention.
