5.5/10

We went with the children out for my birthday to try a new place which seemed to have excellent reviews on Fork, so we were looking forward and had high expectations for a great and relaxing evening. The place has nice decorations, quiet and welcoming ambience, the design was well thought, so what could go wrong? Service was not great at all and slow, while there were only 3 tables occupied altogether at 6:30 PM on a Friday evening, so imagine on a busy evening how this would go. We were asked if we would like starters, we for sure wanted to try that too. They arrived only after the main dish and we were still asked if this is alright …what were we supposed to say? We had to poor our own drinks received in the cans and try to fit all on a small table, plus even had to move dishes around ourselves on the table to fit main course, sides and starters when they arrived late, it was not relaxing at all and actually it ruined all the experience - was glad to go back home as soon as possible and forget this stressful experience. It would not have been an issue to do self service if it would be a bistro or fast-food , but the prices are extremely high for the service offered, 2 times more than any other Indian places in Brussels for service which is not far from self-service. The food was good, spices well balanced and normal portions. The naan variety is delicious. Be careful in case of allergies or intolerance, because shellfish might be mixed in to other dishes although only prawns mentioned. Best to ask before of course. Absolutely not the best experience on my birthday. It was good for trying out once, but we will definitely not go back and neither recommend to any of our friends, business colleagues or family, although located near to us, we prefer to go farther for better quality and service. It is not the place for family, friends or business - but it does have a romantic vibe.
