The service was incredibly friendly and considerate. We were first placed at a very small table, but before ordering our server made sure we had a better place when another party left. I ordered a dark beer, forever wonderful. and the Belgian stew made with beer. It was just a fairly adequate portion and came with small slices of dark bread in it. After having some wonderful stews in Belgium this stew was disappointing. The beer chunks was very chewy with a lot of fat and grizzle. The gravy was tasteless. It came wirh fries which were good. My dining companions had the specialty of Brussels with potato, bacon and sausage. I tried some and regretted not getting it. It was far better The bread that came with the meal was ordinary. This seems to be a place that primarily attracts tourists. That's understandable knowing the location. There's both inside and outdoor seating.

Not sure what was happening but we waited over an hour in our seats eating bread. When the food finally arrived, It was rather bland and overcooked. The dessert was mediocre.

The reviews are legit! I had been to some good restaurants away from City Center, but I was…read moresurprised to see the good reviews of this place so close to The Square. When I arrived I found an impressive menu of food and drink that I did not expect. They had Westmalle beer, and that was a great start. Ricardo the host/proprietor/waiter is originally from Columbia and we worked through some broker Spanish (on my part) to order an impressive array of Wild Shrimp Croquettes, Chorizo and (I think) Radish Homemade Ravioli, House Cut Steaks w/Belgium Frittes, and Beef Cheeks in Gravy. Very high quality food for this area, in a very friendly atmosphere. I think it was Anna (the chef) who came out and she was very sweet. I could see great care was taken in the preparation. I highly recommend this place when in the center of Brussels. The yelps were on point with this one.

I was excited to eat mussels in Brussels. I saw the decent…read morereviews for this place and was informed that there was seating right away, so I sat down and went straight to placing an order for my mussels entree. On first impression, it seemed quite busy. I'm not sure if it's always super busy, but the servers seemed very busy & overwhelmed with amount of tasks that they had to fulfill. It didn't really affect me, but just something I noticed. What disappointed & affected me the most however was the mussels that I was so anticipating. The presentation was nice, but the taste was not... The soup that was on the bottom was coating the mussels and it was way too salty for my taste! It tasted a lot like sea water. There were a decent amount of mussels to eat, but the saltiness really made it hard for me to eat each piece. It didnt have much flavor other than salt. The only saving grace was the fries. Overall, I would not recommend getting an order of mussels here...

Honestly I'm very disappointed…read more The place is pretty, located at the heart of the grand place. The food is good. I got the cheese and salami mixed plate and my friends got muscles and beef stew. The food was pretty good and some of my friends loved their dishes. I got something simple so it was ok. What I did not like was the demeanor of the waiter. He was cordial but he could not care less. We ordered and he dropped a basket of bread on the table with some butter., which was great. But we were not sure if it was for a meal or for the table. All the menus we got were not in English so we were not sure and they didn't tell us... So once the food came we ate the bread. We assumed was for the table but would been nice to know if it really was as we were all friends and didn't wanna eat someone else's stuff like that. Also another thing, when they dropped the food they just dropped anywhere... So my food ended up in front of someone else... and we only had 3 adults so it shouldn't be that hard to know what meal goes where. He also tried to convince us to go inside to eat... even said it was about to rain... it wasn't and it did not.... He prob wanted to make it a little easier since everyone else outside was just having drinks... I get it but annoying and it seems like he checked out from there. I think that the service was the only set back here and I think it would be a very good place if the staff was a little more caring. Other than the service everything was pretty good.
