And then we didn't want to order too much since not much caught our eye. Overall the ambiance is nice I guess. Fits in with the city, but taste wise I wouldn't recommend or the service.

Its setting is pleasant, and the cuisine bourgeois and OK. Nothing exceptional to be expected, but the quality is good. Wines are good and so is the service. A bit snobbish - undeservedly - because they don't even make their own mayonnaise, a must for a good Belgian restaurant.

Dinner on the second night of our Brugge weekend getaway found us at De Bühne…read more Small & quaint dining room with the loveliest person helping us through our evening. You'll want to make reservations here as they were fully booked for the evening & were turning people away Started with the nicest Belgian beers - I had a white & the Mr had another light version of beer that was definitely not light in flavor - these were fabulous Amuse consisted of a nice homemade cheddar biscuit - rosemary & herbs plus a nice pungent cheese - so good! Starters included: Curry Empanadas with broccoli & cheese plus, beet, & potato tempura - this tart was amazing! The flavor was complex and savory and had just a hint of spice / heat to it. Wished we had had about 8 more of these.... Mushrooms & polenta w nut crumble on top - lovely terrine of tender mushrooms & the creamy polenta layer underneath gave the dish a nice texture Main course consisted of the Celery Biscuit - almost like a tart w carrot and potato, 3 different filled (stuffed) vegetables as tomato, broccoli, eggplant Passion Fruit Tart & Pear Tart for dessert & the passion fruit was a mousse-like creamy dessert while the pear tart was like a delicious crumble. We liked them both While there, the table near us had also ordered the empanadas and the lady stated she did not care for cheese. The chef replaced the cheese w/ a bechamel for her so this was further evidence that all dishes were prepared as ordered & everything was fresh, well cooked & very much admired by us! Huge fans!!

Totally exquisite experience. Every aspect of the evening…read more A very intimate setting with first class service. By first class, I mean tremendous attention to detail in every aspect of both service and food. It felt like I was a guest in their home. You'll know what I mean after you visit. As mentioned in an earlier review, they have been in business 20 years. They being husband and wife. We never saw him, but my wife spotted a man in the kitchen and asked her. They make everything on the menu themselves - right down to the table bread. The food was absolutely superb and the presentation was exceptional. We had made a reservation because I learned about the place on Yelp and knew it was small. On the day we visited, it was quiet with only three tables (another cool aspect about a quiet highly differentiated evening) and the one of the couples we spoke with also heard about this place on Yelp. When we asked the owner, she said she didn't really know anything about Yelp until recently when they sent her some mail. This was a fantastic dinner and evening. I would love to come back soon!

The order of the 4th person in our party was obviously forgotten, and arrived after the rest of our plates were clean. Kitchen management 101 is getting food out at the same time, and it is inexcusable that fries, such a Belgian staple, can't come out of a kitchen on time. Some apologies were mumbled but no real explanation was made. On a €200+ tab, management should have offered a discount or some incentive to come back.

There are about 8 different preparations for the mussels - so you'll find one you like. There is a prefix menu that is probably worth checking out. They have the mussels there as well.

We spent about $60 for 2 people and had a huge bowl of mussels in broth and 2 local beers. The mussels were fresh and tasty but don't drink the broth. It's incredible salty. The mussels also came with fries. Beers were great since we went to the De Halve Maan brewery earlier that day. Overall, a cute place to enjoy a nice meal but it is pricer than other nearby restaurants.
