The stew had great flavor but the meat was more sinewy and tough than other places I've eaten it nearby. The fries were good, but not the best as they were rather bland. Overall a decent meal, but there are SO many great restaurants within a short walk that while I might be back and had no issues, it probably won't be soon.

Overall ok service. The shrimp pasta dish had NO taste. I requested Parmesan cheese, but did not…read morehelp. Given, it was dry requested more sauce, nothing helped. I would not recommend. The appetizer calamari was good.

Paling met frieten, fresh and nice taste…read more Very good location as the restaurant is just next to the nature reserve so after eating you can have a walk in the green. Dogs are allowed in the restaurant. The only thing is maybe the portion is not that big as you can see from the pic and you'll have to wait for a while before your dishes come to the table. Not extreme but you just need a bit patience :)

Du Progres was another restaurant that was listed in our hotel's recommended book, but in this case…read moreit didn't live up to the hype. Although they were incredibly busy we were able to get a table for two on their comfortable and covered (if not rain proof) patio. The flow for the waitstaff seemed bad, with the food coming out through the same door patrons lined up to be seated at, but the service was prompt if not a bit hands off. We ordered the asparagus (with eggs) which was quite tasty, but the stew I ordered was vinegary even if the meat was of a nice quality. The fries were delicious (most of the stews automatically come with fries in Belgium) and the stew wasn't too bad when dipped into, but it plain didn't work as a soup. All in all, it might have been an off day, but it was more of a 3.8 for me and I don't think I would get the stew again.

Delicious food and top notch service!…read more We had a dinner with friends at Du Progres in August 2023. All the food we ordered was delicious and the service was precise, friendly, and prompt. Food ordered: Fish Fingers with Tartar Sauce Burrata with Tomato Carpaccio and Pine Nuts Cote à l'os Belgian Whiteblue 1,2 kg Chateaubriand Belgian Whiteblue 600 gr T-bone steak Belgian Whiteblue 300 gr Kids Steak All steaks were perfectly cooked and were great overall. However, Cote à l'os Belgian Whiteblue was the best and most flavorful. 600g and 1.2kg steaks first arrived uncut, they cut a two pieces in front of us to show the cook level, and then cut them all in rightly sized manageable pieces. It was very convenient and resulted in a great presentation as seen on the pics. Thank you Du Progres for the great dinner and evening! We highly recommend Du Progres restaurant as a great dining option in Old Gent area!
