We live over an hour drive from this restaurant but did not regret having made this trip. We had…read morethe 5 course menu and opted for a bottle of wine rather than the accompanying wines. We were recommended a Syrah (Planella), a red wine that went well with all dishes. We had a very tasty starter of spring vegetables (peas,...) with burrata. Than a asparagus dish. Than something went wrong in the orders in the kitchen. We should have had turbot but got king crab instead. We did not mind as it was a good replacement. But even though we did not complain our aperitif (fine Cava and Gin Tonic) was offered when paying. This was real customer service. Main was entrecote and 'americain' with fries and lettuce hearts (a bistro classic). For dessert we had a very nice sweet and sour passionfruit dessert. We were fully satisfied with the starter and dessert as clear winners. The staff is young but very pleasant and doing all things possible to offer all guests a fantastic and personal evening. A good mix of urban cocky and rural no nonsense attitude. When we were there, there was also a group of 7 celebrating a stag night but it did not spoil our evening as they were civilised The restaurant serves around 30 people in a rather small restaurant which makes it rather loud but we still could really enjoy our 'tête-à-tête'. Certainly worth a detour.

I stopped by De Arme Duivel for dinner recently and tried their Stoofvlees (Flemish Stew). Similar…read moreto other places, the stew had nice chunks of beef and was flavourful and thick/hearty. What stood out the most was the Chicory salad as it was refreshing and made it less greasy (as it was slightly bitter) throughout the meal. Overall, I'd give it 8.5/10

I also had a draft beer, which was tasty as well. The staff is friendly and attentive. And if you're lucky enough, you can choose between sitting indoor or outdoors- either way this restaurant has a great ambiance to match the food!

The back of the restaurant is a very pleasant garden and at the far end of the garden is a children's play area so this is a very nice restaurant come to in the summertime especially.

I left to find something else but tried my luck & coming back. Glad I did! They have wine, but as I was told, beer is their thing. The food was excellent and the staff are colorful and efficient as the flow between tables! I had the meatballs (2 large ones), meals come with a small salad and a side & bread! The beer selection is wide. Mostly Belgium ones. Other tables had what looked like delicious tuna, lasagna and stew which they all seemed to enjoy.

I am so sorry to not rave about this place like everyone else did…read more To start with the positives: -cute, cozy spot inside with a few outdoor tables. No reservations, so you have to wait in line. Luckily, the line moved pretty quickly and we were able to be seated inside. -service was great. The fabulously dressed flamboyant gentleman was kind and helpful. The sassy woman was hilarious! -Portions are pretty decently sized and priced fairly Why three stars? I just didn't enjoy anything that we ordered. Sadly, it was my least favorite meal that we had in Belgium. Based on all the reviews, I think it's clear that it's not the place per se, but what I was looking for. That being said, I still must be honest. What we ordered: Cheddar Croquettes (2 for 14 Euros): Just ok and this was one of the things that I felt was overpriced Carpaccio of Smoked Beef with White Truffle Oil (18 Euros): Again, just ok Meatloaf with "Jack Pepper" sauce (26 Euros): "Jack Pepper" means something different in Brussels. It was basically a peppercorn gravy. I wasn't a fan, but Jim G. enjoyed it. With this, we had frites and a small side salad. I know many people recommend that Flemish Beef Stew, but we already had that at Fin de Siecle, and I couldn't imagine that any place would top it, so we didn't get it here. Ultimately, this place isn't for me, but I seem to be in the minority.

Good classic Belgium food in a warm and quiet environment. Many a late night supper at De Nachtuil.read more

Glad I listened to him on both accounts. Great food, great ambiance, and exceptional service. Really enjoyed the portions and the flavor of the food. Really enjoyed the strong drinks we ordered. Portion sizes were really up my alley as I expect to be getting a good amount of food for the price. Would HIGHLY recommend.
