I got a plain waffle which was both automatically gluten-free and vegan. It was filling and stayed piping hot the entire time I walked around in the cold. It tasted nice without any toppings whatsoever. I'd definitely stop by again if I were in Brussels. Visited: December 2025

Lots of selections or build your own, what can go wrong with a good waffle and good toppings.

It's in a really nice spot inside one of the glass passages, which are worth a visit just for their historical glory and beauty.

We were able to buy beer at the bar, ate Indian, Vietnamese, Syrian, and Mediterranean during our visits. The Indian and Mediterranean were our favorites. They have burgers, tacos, sushi, bao buns, a dessert shop, and many more options. My dinner each night was around €16 including beer. It's not your typical fast food either. The food tastes great and is casual enough that you don't feel rushed.

I really liked TOUKOUL. It was my first time trying Ethiopian and their Afro Bowl a good variety of color, textures, and flavors. It felt very blanked and delicious.

Thought about making reservations, but instead we just got there right when they opened and there would've been no need. Granted it was a work week night, literally for the entire hour we were there only two tables arrived. And I was counting us. Perhaps later you might want a reservation or you might have to wait. There were only about seven or eight tables me entire thing so it's cozy. The one person running the cash register and taking orders, was very kind, but a little distracted on her phone. I wonder if she was doing work. She was very sweet though and gave good recommendations. My friend got the Ragu while I opted for the gnocchi. I actually preferred the Ragu for sure. The meat was tender and delicious, and the noodles were thick and delightful. The gnocchi kind of tasted a little, bland and repetitive. To be honest, I wish we could've shared like five tiny plates. Felt like I was eating way too much gnocchi and didn't get a lot of diversity. The bacon on top did help a little. The dishes were about 25 a piece, but they definitely tasted homemade. We opted for the bruschetta as a starter and I would've skipped that. The tomatoes were super fresh and the bread was good but the olive oil was playing. Don't think it was worth $10. The wine selection was brilliant. Generally pretty affordable for the quality. Some delicious wines there that night. Love love, love the aesthetic. We definitely want to return and try some new things.

If you want to try Belgian food with reasonable prices then this was one good option in Brussels…read more I arrived early for Friday night dinner and the restaurant was just over half full with lots of available seating. While the register states No Cards one of the servers told the table next to mine not worry when they didn't have enough euros. Only a drink menu was provided and the dishes being served that day were handwritten on moveable boards or posted on the wall. I had on my list a couple to try but finally went with the Belgian carbonades à la biere which was beef stew with mashed potatoes in a dark gravy made with beer. The plate was quite generous and much appreciated since I devoured it. I enjoyed the creaminess of the potatoes swirled with gravy but the meat could've been a tad bit more tender. Service was good. I think everyone on the floor stopped by my table for one reason or the other. Ambiance was casual and looked like many people were taking their time over their meals. When finished you need head to the register to settle the tab. I paid in cash. Worth a return visit.

The waffle was somehow gummy and oily at the same time, and it was served on a small board that - with the runny yolk situation and piled spinach - made an absolute mess on the table and ground beneath. Last, the avocado was massively brown and was served anyway - we didn't complain or send it back mostly because we had a time limit, but I was unpleasantly surprised at their standard of fare
