    Petit Bistro is in fact a small charming place, with the nicest staff, great wines and excellent food!

    Nice food and easy-going atmosphere, with the TheFork discount at a very low price for the quality of the food and wine consumed. Recommended!

    Choices with the discount is ridiculous and not clearley mentioned on the app. Finally we had no discount.

    Le Petit Bistro (LPB) Meat & WineOwner

    I won't comment...I'd like simply to highlight that on the same evening, two other customers, under similar conditions, expressed their satisfaction with ratings of 9.5/10 and 10/10. Nevertheless I appreciate your feedback and wish you the best in finding a dining experience in Brussels that meets your expectations.

    I was afraid firstly by the negative comments in the reviews section, when some saying was a scam and overpriced. And to be honest was the opposite! The 50% coupon worked well on the selected dishes. The staff was really outstanding and with cette joie de vivre a la Francaise et Belge. We were well adviced for the foods and drinks, and i never feel like being pushed to consume more. The selections of cocktails and wines were really good. I was quite over the moon with the main dishes. The quality of the meat, the frites maison and the sauces! Yummy the bearnaise one! I wanted to discover the french cuisine style to my partner and he was not upset, he loved it! Also they speak English, french, so no misunderstanding concerning how works the menu and coupon. The atmosphere was so cosy and feel like to eat with friends in apero style but with a touch of finest. We paid 108 euros for 1 cocktail, 1 wine, 1 glass of champagne, 1 coca, 1 water bottle, 2 croquettes ( sooo good) and 2 main dishes with one extra fries and sauce. The quality of foods and price is very good. So compliment au chef, great staffs with a lot of knowledges concerning travelling worldwide and foods. Will go back for sure when i visited Brussels. Perfect score for me. See you soon and very well done les potos :)

    An intimate restaurant. The staff genuinely care for the customers, the quality of the food, and quality of the wine. Great for catching up with friends or a romantic dinner.

    I went to the restaurant for dinner with my partner. We thought the food was absolutely amazing and the staff were so friendly! Overall the restaurant, as the name says it's quite 'petit' which makes the experience extremely cosy and personal. We got to try shrimp croquettes for the first time and got steak and dessert. All of the dishes were cooked and served extremely well. If I had to leave a small suggestion. The steaks are served cut into strips which is a fantastic way to show the cooking which was carried out. However in my opinion pre-heating the plate may be necessary when serving especially rare and medium-rare steaks as the heat is quickly absorbed by the plate otherwise.

    Lovely restaurant, with small food and wine menus, but still plenty of choice and value. The food is lovely, and the service was perfect, attentive but not too fussy.

    Le Petit Bistro (LPB) Meat & WineOwner

    Thank you, Sylvester, for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed our lovely restaurant ambiance and found our carefully curated menus to your liking. We aim to offer a perfect balance of choice and value, paired with attentive yet unobtrusive service. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    Great potential and good food with reserves. It was surprising but too salty. The service quality does not meet the price. Waiting service could be improved in terms of speed and consistency. The deco let you a bit confuses about what is this place about. About french cuisine? Grandma cuisine? Family? High standing? Chez tout le monde? I think if they invest in professionalising and some marketing they can be a great restaurant.

    Le Petit Bistro (LPB) Meat & WineOwner

    Dear Diego, Thank you for your valuable feedback. We appreciate your recognition of our restaurant's potential and the quality of our food. Your comments on the seasoning have been duly noted. We strive to ensure every dish meets our guests' expectations. Regarding service, we are committed to enhancing both speed and consistency to provide a seamless dining experience for our patrons. As for our ambiance as you are asking, we aim to create a welcoming atmosphere that reflects the diversity and richness of French and Belgian cuisine. We value your suggestions regarding professionalization and marketing. Rest assured, we are continuously working on refining our operations and promoting our unique offerings. We look forward to welcoming you back and exceeding your expectations in the future. Warm regards,

    Lovely little restaurant with good quality food. Service a little on the slow side but very friendly

    Dear Nita, thanks a lot for your nice comments and great rating. Well noted on the service speed, it's rare but it can happened when the restaurant is fully packed. We hope to see you soon.

    BE CAREFUL to the 50% discount which in my view is quite deceptive… ordered a steak which was included in the discount menu, they ask you if you want fries and sauce WITHOUT telling you that they are paid separately and not included in the promotion… But the food is very good, the design of the restaurant as well. However, it is very small and tables are too close to each others which makes difficult to have privacy, specially if you go with your partner.

    Le Petit Bistro (LPB) Meat & WineOwner

    Dear Pietro, We appreciate your feedback, but we must clarify that your comments are inaccurate. Our value-for-money offer is fantastic, and all details are transparently presented on the menu. The promotion clearly specifies "steak with salad," and prices for additional items like fries and sauce are distinctly indicated. We regret any confusion, but it's important to note that the 50% discount applies to the specified menu items. We take pride in the quality of our food and the appealing design of our restaurant. However, we understand your concern about privacy, and we'll consider your feedback for future improvements.

    We definitely enjoyed LPB. The food was good. The wine was good. The service was friendly and professional. I'd like to make a comment about the Fork offer. The Fork notice says that conditions may apply, and then displays the Menu of the Month, and the Classic Menu, giving the impression that Fork clients can choose from both. However, Fork clients can only choose from the Menu of the Month, which is only two starters and two main courses. I would have preferred to know this before going to the restaurant. As I said, it was very nice, but the choice for Fork clients was very limited.

    Le Petit Bistro (LPB) Meat & WineOwner

    Dear Richard, I quote you "The food was good. The wine was good. The service was friendly and professional"...6/10. One of the worth rating we've got for...nothing. Passing your personal frustration on a small restaurant fighting everyday to deliver excellent quality, price and service to all customers is a low blow...Your criticism about the fork is completely unfounded, we communicate transparently from the fork platform on the menu itself and when you arrive at our restaurant we repeat it to make sure everything is clear. How do you expect a restaurant serving high quality ingredients such as ribeye / sweetbread or salmon filet to make a living at 50% discount on the whole menu, it's impossible. The only option would be to do pasta / pizza or curry and rice dish, but it's not so attractive anymore for you I bet and it is not who we are. We hope you'll find better restaurants for your next dinner, on our side we will continue delivering high quality and excellent value to our discerning customers.

    Nice food but quite ordinary, no creativity. People were nice but it was very cold, no proper heating. Better to avoid in winter

    Le Petit Bistro (LPB) Meat & WineOwner

    Ciao Emanuele, Thanks for your feedback. It is true that yesterday was a particularly cold evening with the Polar vortex that is currently hitting Europe. We are sorry that despite our 2 hot air curtains on both sides of the room, you’ve still felt some coldness. We have taken action and added an extra heating device to ensure maximum comfort to our guests. At LPB Bistro, we focus on quality ingredients with all our dishes prepared in-house with seasonal products. Our menu changes every month so do not hesitate to drop by again for some more cheese croquettes, salmon filet, premium steak and wines. Cheers

    It was a great dinner, the athmosphere is very nice, there is intimacy and the space is really well done. The staff is very lovely, helping you in every request. Service was a bit slow, but probably it happened only this night. The food is very delicious and well done. I will come back for sure!

    We waited 1 hour between the starter and the main dish. The promotion was only applicable to a separate menu called "The Fork", and we were presented another menu, their regular menu, to which the promotion did not apply.

    Le Petit Bistro (LPB) Meat & WineOwner

    Hey Laura, sorry for the time you had to wait, it's very rare at LPB but it can happen when the restaurant is packed as we have a small team. We look forward to seeing you soon. Best !

    We discovered a charming place, with ambiance and very good and tasty food and wine. A very warm welcome by the staff, good service and some nice chats with one of the owners made the evening perfect! The menu seems limited but offers enough choice to satisfy any appetite and taste, (very good croquettes crevettes, oeuf parfait, poulpe..!), very good choice of wine. Of course not cheap in the end ???? but we left happy and well anchored to the ground against the wind ????! We will come back!

    We had shrimps for entrance, and ribeye, beef and spaghetti for mains. All the food was great. No selection of beers and all the drinks and deserts were very expensive.

    Thanks for your comments Joacquim. For the prices, we are aligned with the market. We have 2 beers as we are a wine bar, and we serve only excellent wines.

    The 50% reduction actually applies to just a few items in their menu and they are not marked as such. Items which were placed on the non-seasonal menu were not considered part of the “a la carte” menu, therefore we ended up having only one discounted item on the entire bill. Overall, quality was good, but overpriced for what we ended up paying.

    Hey Alex, thanks for your comments, those things have changed a lot since then, You should try us again ! First glass of wine is on us ! Best !

    LPB is a small and intimate restaurant with a nice sélection of wine. I particularly liked the crémant d'Alsace that I ordered as an apéro. It was a family dinner and we all found our dishes to be very tasty featuring nice, pleasant and uncommon combinations. The menu is kept small divided between a gourmand / gourmet split. The kitchen was able to accommodate for a lactose intolerant guest. Overall a great dining experience in a cozy spot, just what we needed!
