    We ordered a Flemish Stew and Liege Meatballs. They were overall tasty, not the best in Brussels but worthy nonetheless. Staff was attentive, typical Belgian Brasseries atmosphere. Good experience overall

    New owners have taken over and refreshed the menu. The food has improved, I had excellent carbonnade and my parents had fish of the day. With the discount it is decent value. I will return!

    The place looks very nice. It is spacious. The service is excellent. The carbonnade was not the top that I have had but it was ok.

    We had salmon and mussels. Everything was delicious and the service was very good and polite! Dessert was also very good, with a highlight for the Waffle Mikado. We will come back!

    Typical Belgian food but the carbonnade was hardly in my top10, I was a bit disappointed after this place was recommended to me by many people. Excellent kroketten and onglet though

    Booked dinner here for my friend’s birthday and it was a really nice atmosphere. I had brought a cake for her and the staff was super accommodating. Food is traditional Belgian fare, with good sized portions.

    I would say that really gave me a positive impression from the moment I opened the door. A courteous man came and showed us to the table in a warm and friendly atmosphere. The waiters were kind and meticoulous. A diverse menu with local dishes was an interesting proposal, though we were delighted with just one. Deserves going back for tasting the rest of the menu!. Great choice.

    We had a wonderful evening at the restaurant. Professional and friendly service. We got a table at the window. The food was delicious and of good quality. Resonable prices and a lively international atmosphere.

    Great food and ambience, a bit slow service - but maybe because it was Saturday night.

    Very nice typical Belgian restaurant to go for business or with friend. The food is good and the prices are also typical for the city. I would recommend it.

    Lively spot with more dinners enjoying the nice weather than the nice decor. Great example of a Brussels brasserie with many traditional dishes including mussels which we had. Helpful and friendly staff. Can highly recommend it.

    Great place - best mussels we have found so far in Brussels plus traditional dishes! Plus staff very accommodating and smiley :) we take all visitors here

    5.0

    I visited this restaurant pre covid and the choice of mussels was very extensive. This time, the choice was minimal. I had croquettes de crevette as an entree but it was just mushy with no taste. Main course if Carbonnade was tasty and a good portion. Quite expensive in my opinion.

    Loved it, would definitely recommend the mussels! Walking distance from the center Not too crowded Service is great Portions are large enough to share

    So overpriced! Food was very average but prices and portion size did not reflect this at all. We were shocked with the low quality of the food compared to how much they charge for everything.

  • alisa l.2 years ago

    4.0

    We were so disappointed by this place. And the service was fine (not really good, not really bad, but ok). The location is nice with the outdoor seating looking out into the little square. But it's basically like one of those overpriced tourist restaurants where the food is very basic and bland yet everything is still very expensive because of the location. We had 3 appetisers, 3 entrees and a bottle of wine. Everything was just bad. So so bad, completely flavourless and way overpriced. We left and ordered more food at another restaurant in the Rue Saint-Boniface area. Go over there instead. Don't waste your time here if you want any flavour or value for money.
