First of all , using the name Michelin as advertising is misleading. Food was not seasoned properly. We got pork in one of our courses even though we mentioned we don’t eat pork right we came in. Food didn’t match the time of the year. Total time of 4 courses was more than 3 hours. After discovering that the first two courses took way too long, we ask if they could speed up. They said okey, no improvement. Because it took ages, we asked if it the desert was ready, please serve it and other wise can you take it out. At start we ask if we could take one course (some cheese) out. We still received a bill for 6 courses. All in all it was a horrible experience. I was hoping to surprise my wife with a romantic dinner, it was a total disaster.

A really nice experience on all aspects. The place is very agreable, The welcome and the service are excellent. Both the sommelier and the waiter perfectly know the wines that are served. The food, its preparation and the presentation are excellent. The cellar is worth of a visit. I strongly recommend.

Since this restaurant is in my neighbourhood, I thought of giving it a first time try. So yesterday, together with some friends, we visited the restaurant. The quality of the food was very good and the young and inexperienced waiters did their best in a satisfactory way. So we were quite happy up to the moment the dessert came. We had a choice between two desserts: one based on blueberry mousse and sorbet, and the other based on some cheese panna cotta. We all ordered the panna cotta, but we had the surprise to be served the blueberry mousse and sorbet. When we told the waiter about the mistake, he went back to check with his superior, then only came back to tell us that the blueberry sorbet is some kind of panna cotta and that's exactly what we had ordered. As we didn't appreciate being taken for idiots and being lied in the face, we asked him to call his superior. When his superior came, he had a very arrogant and patronising attitude and delivered us the same lie, trying to explain us how the blueberry mousse and sorbet are some kind of panna cotta. Only when we confronted him with the menu, he arrogantly admitted there might be a mistake! This kind of attitude I find absolutely unacceptable from any professional working in services, who has some minimal respect for his customers and his profession!

Dishes - Good, right ingredients and tasty. On a side note the price was on the higher side but this is a secondary point. Service - Perfect Décor - This is co related, for me, with the dishes and service.

Disappointing. Roughly €200 for 2 persons, for a 3-course menu à la carte, with 1 glass of champagne each, 1 glass of wine, and coffee - which is the budget we had planned -. But only 6 starters to choose from the menu, 6 main courses, and 3 desserts, which is surprising. Understaffed, and some of the staff was not up to the expected level; you end up waiting, and with a mixed feeling; no explanation of the food being served (besides knowing that's what you ordered, but what are these bits of vegetables and sauce and what...). Because of a noisy neighbour, I asked at the very beginning to move to another table, which was empty, but it took 10mn to be told it was not possible: the whole layout of the tables had been already "prepared" before, and could not be changed. I still don't know what that means; but i could hear my neighbour's stories the whole evening long, without really wanting to. Food was nice, but not worth the price and the service. (The lamb rack was a bit undercooked; the dame blanche with warm chocolate over a chocolate shell containing ice cream was a bit chocolate-overkill) I don't mind paying this much if the experience is worth it - it should be very good food, with very good service -. But the conditions made me feel like I had to adapt to their limitations - few menu options, s.o that it's easier for the kitchen; few staff, so it's cheaper to maintain; stay where you sit, even if you're not comfortable, because it's actually not our problem; etc... We've been clients for 12 years (even before they moved to the current place), but it looks like we'll go somewhere else from now on.
