We stopped by The Lobster House for dinner while on our honeymoon in Brussels, and wow... such a great choice. They're famous for their seafood paella with lobster, which is a must-try here. We skipped it since we wanted to save our full paella experience for Barcelona. I ordered the seafood spaghetti and my husband fell in love with it lol. There's something special about the sauce, so rich and flavorful. It was so good that we had to come back again before leaving the city. We also had the mussels, of course. You can't come to Brussels and not do "mussels in Brussels." The white wine sauce was amazing, and the frites that came with it were hot, fresh, and perfect for dipping. Portions are generous and everything is great for sharing. We also loved the fresh rolls they bring out at the start. The service is great! The ambiance is cozy and relaxed, perfect for a casual dinner or a special night out. I honestly can't say enough good things about this place. If I'm ever back in Brussels, I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend! read more

A must-visit for seafood lovers in Brussels! It gets incredibly busy, so I highly recommend making a reservation in advance (it's very easy to do online). While the seating is a little cramped, it has a warm, cozy atmosphere that adds to the charm. The staff was fantastic--very friendly and accommodating from start to finish. We ordered the seafood paella and the mussels, and both were delicious and fresh. The portions are quite generous; we left feeling completely stuffed. Great value and a great experience! read more

Lobster House - mussels - Belgian Near Me - Brussels, BRU

Convenient location in a busy area, but thought this place was mediocre. We ate here because they were able to seat our large party of 10ppl without any reservation. It was a warm summer day and no AC, but I think that's the case for most of Belgium. Overall, food was mid -- nothing stood out or tasted particularly delicious that I'd want to come back. And since it's seafood, it's a bit pricey as well. People rave about the mussels, and I can admit they were decent. But I just had the best buttery garlic mussels a few days prior, so the bar had been set pretty high. I think the lobster paella was also not bad?? Or it's just the lobster, really. read more

We walked in without a reservation which apparently is not recommended given how popular this restaurant is. Thankfully, we were able to get a table inside. The restaurant itself is very quiet, so it's a great place to have nice intimate conversations. Service was relatively quick. On top of this, we enjoyed our mussels. I'd say that the cream with garlic tasted better than the white wine. We also ordered bread to help soak up the sauce. I'm so happy I got to experience mussels and frites in Brussels! read more

Only had time for one dinner in Brussels, we had to make it count! Picked The Lobster House after doing some research. Good thing we called in a reservation, because they were super full when we got there! Had escargot and Italian green and red salad for appetizers. Escargot was pretty conventional and the salad was...well, basic salad. Had the sea bass and Spanish paella with fresh 1/2 lobster as entrées. Sea bass was good, albeit a bit small for how much we were paying for it. The Spanish paella though was worth the price of admission! They did not hold back on the seafood for this at all. By far the best dish they had there. Service was good. They were pretty friendly here. Even held our table even though we were pretty late. Only regret is that we didn't get another opportunity to come back since our waiter insisted that we come back. But I would love to come back again if I come back to Brussels. read more

My first trip to Brussels, Lobster House was close to my hotel and had good reviews so decided to give it a try. Locationwise super convenient and located in old town by the Royal Gallery of St Hubert. There is both indoor and outdoor seating, but be warned when you sit outside people sitting next to you may sample. That aside the staff there was really friendly. I tried the half lobster, because how can I not? The flavors were great, but the lobster isn't a large portion. Good thing the sides were there. I'm glad I tried the Lobster House, but next time I think I would pass. There are a lot of places to try in the immediate option. read more

Lobster House was solid. We checked it out because it had a ton of good reviews. Ended up sitting outside--definitely a bit chilly... :/ The mussels were amazing! Definitely the highlight and 100% worth the hype. We ordered a bunch of seafood overall, and it was good, nothing crazy. The jamón with melon was just okay... probably would've skipped that one. But seriously, don't miss the mussels! It was creamy and delicious! read more

This restaurant has a nice ambiance and a great selection of Belgian dishes. The decor makes it feel like you're in a somewhat fancy spot, but the prices of the dishes were pretty fair compared to the other nearby restaurants offering the same items. I brought some friends here for dinner since they were visiting Brussels, but I recall being a bit disappointed by the service. Although friendly, the waiter (or manager?) seemed slightly pushy. That being said, the mussels and fries were absolutely delicious! If you're planning to visit, I recommend making a reservation well in advance. read more

I stopped by Lobster House in Brussels for dinner recently. In terms of food, I had their Mussels with White Wine (Moules-frites). The mussels were really fresh and the wine amazingly complemented the mussels. Overall, it was a solid dish and I'd go back given the opportunity. Note that the dish at this restaurant may be a couple of euro more expensive than other places but it was worth it so I'd give it 8.8/10. read more

Ate here twice during our week in Brussels. The two occasions were totally different. The first visit was outstanding and the second visit just average. Therefore a total rating of 4. Our first visit we shared both meals as we do most meals. We had the half grilled lobster served with rice and grilled peppers and the Saint Jacques Meunière (scallops in butter sauce). Everything was perfect. The lobster was very fresh and the presentation was great. There were even two small shrimp served next to the half lobster. The sides were tasty as well. The Saint Jacques was the show stopper. It was outstanding. There were about 5 huge scallops and additional 3 prawns that had been sautéed in a to die for butter sauce. I kept dipping my lobster meat and my shrimp in that succulent sauce. Perfect everything. The second visit was just not quite the same. I think they had more outside diners that were ordering lots of big lobster plates that had their total attention. That was ok. We ordered the once again Saint Jacques but then changed the second dish to be that of a big pot of mussels...Mussels Maison - Of the House(specialty). The Saint Jacques did not have that indepth butter sauce that it did earlier. It actually had almost no Butter Sauce. Seemed to be maybe rushed. The scallops were still very good but the shrimp not so much. A bit overcooked. The mussels were served and they were beautiful. A huge pot and very full. The problem with the mussels were two fold. The sauce did not have much taste and there was not much of it. I had to add salt to bring out any taste in the dish...and a lot of it. Service was great. Prices very reasonable. Would probably return. Recommend that you try it. read more

Delicious foods, Outstanding service! The seafood platter with lobster is highly recommended!! (4 people suggested, 2-3 people without more orders other than wines.) Thought this is simply a tourist place yet dining here was catalyst of a wonderful trip to Brussels. Everything in the seafood plater was fresh and cooked just right. Staffs were real seafood experts who were also helping to open the lobster. When we received the bill, we realized that they ordered the wrong plater, which's portion was bigger for 4 ppl. The owner simply adjusted the bill despite we tried to tell that we would pay since we've finished. read more

The service was so warm and generous and we enjoyed chatting with them. They surprised us with limoncello at the end! I was thrilled! read more

There are some places in the world that don't just serve food--they serve memories. For us, Lobster House Brussels is one of those rare, golden gems. We first visited this remarkable restaurant on 19th August 2013--a date we still remember with fondness and joy. Back then, we were welcomed with open arms, treated to superstar service, and served a meal that danced on our palates and stayed in our hearts. It wasn't just dinner--it was the start of something special. And today, over a decade later, we returned--older, perhaps wiser, but with hearts just as full of excitement. Walking through the doors again felt like stepping into a beautiful memory. And to our delight, we were greeted by David--the very same person who made our first visit so unforgettable. We showed him the photo we took together all those years ago... we all looked younger then, but the warmth and kindness in his eyes hadn't changed a bit. David, along with his exceptional team, radiates hospitality. There's a rare sincerity in their service--a genuine passion for making each guest feel special. The staff are a reflection of David's leadership: graceful, attentive, and full of heart. And oh, the food--simply divine. The flavours, the freshness, the presentation... every dish is a love letter to the sea. It's rare to find a place where standards don't just remain high but seem to get even better with time. Lobster House is not just a restaurant. It's a haven of happiness, a treasure chest of memories, and a testament to the beauty of genuine hospitality. To David and the wonderful team--you've touched our hearts once again. We'll cherish this new memory just as deeply as the first. Until next time--with love and gratitude. Leke/Lucky/David read more

Lobster House - Outside - Belgian Near Me - Brussels, BRU

I have done quit a bit of research on restaurants in Brussel prior deciding to dine her. We stopped by the restaurant on 7/26 which was the last day at Brussel. We had high expectation of the quality of food as lots of good reviews from tripadvisor or yelp. Since we had a big party, we walked in to check if they could accommodate our party. The guy who greeted us didn't look very pleasant when we are checking. Then he seated us outside of the restaurant by combining few tables together which was absolutely fine. During the order, we paused and were thinking/debating what else to get, he started saying.....I had to put all small tables for your party and you should order each person an entree such that it could compensate the number of tables he gave up for us. We were surprised of his attitude as we had never experience this type of service. And the most importantly, we hadn't yet done ordering. At last he walked away without further complaint and he felt we ordered enough food as per his expectation. Both him and the server's service was terrible and the food wasn't as good as what review said. We had similar type of food the night before at another restaurant that opened for long time. The quality of food and service was way better than here. read more

We came here for my girlfriends birthday dinner. We are from the East Coast in the United States and we mistakenly came for our reservation a day early.

Quite the jokester and so very pleasant! Dinner was fantastic, I had the Paella Royale and my girlfriend got the Mixed grill lobster. It was a hit! If we come back to Brussels we'll come see him again! read more

First time in Brussels and found this place by accident. What a pleasant surprise. I had the paella with the half lobster and it was hella good, but the best dish I had in all of Belgium was the 'Plate of Mossels in Garlic Butter.' The bucket of mussels you see in every restaurant are good but the Plate with the garlic butter at the Lobster House was AMAZING!!! I'd get this as my main dish (not to share) next time around. Maybe a 2nd plate for the table... read more
