Very rare for a restaurant to master the twin dynamic of aesthetic and substance. Considering the…read moreculture of Belgium; this establishment is a shining example of excellent service with a homely dining experience. The chefs are terrific in how they prepare the food, and the serving staff are very personable as they are attentive. Predominately, and understandably, French-speaking; a pleasant surprise is they also understand English to help tourists like myself to order their delicious food. Highly recommend for an intimate date night with a significant other, or a warm gathering with Friends. I definitely look forward to returning, as well as spreading the word about this business.

He waited on all the tables while his girlfriend the chef cooked. We never wanted for anything, despite his being the only server. I had the croquettes of chicken and cheese for an appetizer and the grilled lamb for an entree with frites (fries) and a cappuccino to finish it off. We also had a bottle of Syrah with dinner. The food was completely delicious. The atmosphere was relaxing and the restaurant was very comfortable. My friends had soup for the appetizer and steak and fries.

It has a kitchens for preparing the food, a central grill for certain dishes and mini grills that can be placed on your table for others. The cuisine is based around grilled meats, accompanied with a choice of baked potatoes or Frits and salads. The proprietor greeted us (he speaks English and French) and explained the choices for cooking the meals. We chose meals that are cooked at the table with the mini grills. I chose the beef plate which featured three types of beef in 100g portions each. My friend chose mixed grill plate which consisted of beef, lamb, chicken and ostrich. I chose a nice Pino Noir to go with the meal. I was driving so I passed on an after dinner whisky but I could have been quite content with the selection. Through my conversation with the proprietor I discovered that he built all the tables, bar, kitchen and grills himself. He is an avid skier and mountaineer. This is reflected in the decor which is tastefully put together. An interesting fact is that each table has a tag with the name of a historic expedition / explorer. If you aren't familiar with the name of your table, just ask and you will receive an interesting history lesson including some lesser known trivia about the expedition.
