With all the star restaurants I've been to, this was my least favourite. The overall experience was…read moreextremely mediocre; to begin with, when we arrived and got seated we waited for 15 minutes before someone could notice that we weren't attended or offered aperitif yet. After we had our aperitif, the man who brought our 1st appetizer should have informed the main waiter, that my partner wasn't a meat eater (which we had clearly started) The main waiter then came along with a meat suggestion. However, this wasn't the main concern. Few things that I would like to point out are: * Food was very mediocre (especially the dessert, it seemed like a brownie from Starbucks and nothing of a star restaurant) * We were at the restaurant until midnight and most of the customers had gone, but a few were left, to my surprise I notice the waiters went to bar and were cheering to the left-over champagne. I believe they could have just waited a bit. * The wine which was presented with the fish dish was empowering the fish taste, therefore I believe it was a poor choice. * It spoilt my evening because it was the birthday of my friend and in my reservation email and confirmation phone call I had specifically mentioned to do something during the dessert and they had promised that they would. (They totally forgot about it and I couldn't remind them while I was being seated there) * After we paid the bill, there was not one to thank us for the visit or to check if we were fine or ready to leave, no one offered to get our jacket either) * Cherry on the cake is when I arrived at the Vallet Parking no one was there and I had to run around the restaurant parking in rain looking for someone. All of the above is not a big deal but it's something I would expect out of a Brasserie not a "STAR" restaurant, if I were from Michelin I would drop the *.

We don't often go to Michelin star restaurants. However when we do ... wow! Our lunch at La Villa…read moreLorraine was pure perfection. Classic dishes with a modern twist. A perfect service. Fantastic wines. The surprise was that the lunch overall is more than affordable (for the quality for the meal) and bonus point - La Villa Lorraine also offers a special youth price which I would totally encourage those young enough to take advantage of.

I've done a review for this place 3 times now. Apparently Yelp! doesn't care. Anyway: good place!…read moreBut don't go if you're in a hurry. Open in the evenings only Thu and Fri. But you can book it for private events :)

They have a lot of variety of food! They have weekly menu aswel on top of what they offer…read more It's quick ! Only bad thing is the food is quite cold so you have to heat it when you are back in the office. Would recommend if you have a microwave in your kitchen office !

Very good assortment of hot/cold, sandwiches, salads, and the menu rotates every couple of weeks…read more The service is good, and efficient, with it's ticketing system. Prices are some of the best ! Great spot for lunch on the go!

This is a family restaurant handed down through the ages. It breathes all the atmosphere and scents…read moreof years that patrons have come and gone, the fire place has stained the rafters and walls and the decor has been added to somewhat haphazardly throughout the centuries. The structure in of the building itself is somewhat Heath Robinson like. The tables are laid with the typical cloth of red and white, the napkins are real cloth not paper. It wasn't modern in 1950 or 1914 or 1878 but it is true to itself. The staff also has the real hallmarks of being a family restaurant, this is not the anti-sceptic efficiency of the MacDo or the suave sophistication of fine dining. They are friendly, smiling and propose the offering of their menu with patience and hunmour. As the evening goes along the service does tend to slow down as they spend more time chatting to patrons - many obviously have been coming there for yonks - taking time aside to surprise the little kid with an extra special ice cream and so forth. Do not be in a hurry and if you are make sure you catch the eye of the wait staff. Then they are very reactive - this is the classic relaxed Sunday family outing not a New York foodie temple. The menu has the Belgian classics - we had grilled scampi - excellently done with a nice tartar and rouille sauce, yum - a frisee au lardons a simple but wholesome dish and the mushrooms on toast. The portion size was exactly right for a starter, often they are too large at such places where you get heavy food. We took the T-Bone for three with jacket potato and vegetables. Wonderful wonderful jacket potatoes - really grilled with a house butter/cream in it rather than the typical heavy cream one. The salad is a classic again, just lettuce with a good vinaigrette mixed in the bowl for you. For desert a real dame blanche - always a good choice in Belgium and we took the Sabayon with marsala. Clearly freshly made - exactly the warm slightly alcoholised goodness you would expect. There is a limited wine list but the prices are reasonable and the quality of the Vacqueyras we had was great, looking at what else was on offer there were none that gave me pause. So what is the downside you will say? I regret to say that whilst the T-bone was excellently cooked on a real fire the quality of the meat itself fell short of my expectations. It was - despite being cooked well - a bit tough, dry and bland-ish. The other thing that irritated me somewhat is that there was 3.30 charge per sauce with your T-bone which I think is a lot when the sauce is served in a tiny ramekin. The veggies and aperitifs likewise were on the expensive side and at the end of the evening things just took a little too long, until I just started signalling the wait staff. Bathrooms impeccably clean and great coffee. It may be that we were unlucky with our piece of meat, I will return and we will try again - if it wasn't for that I would have rated it a four star but as it was the main attraction disappointed.
