Il Gallo Nero is one of those places you don't want to review out of fear you won't get a table again because everyone will know about it. What a jewel of a restaurant!

This Italian restaurant is situated in one of the narrow streets around the central marketplace and the cathedral in antwerp, so really within walking distance for people visiting the historical center. It is located in an old house and offers a rather small but cosy interior. The restaurant is held by a couple, the husband being Italian ( from Milano)... More

It is a very cozy and romantic restaurant. The italian owners take care about the menu and they cook from the family recepeits. The food, the service, the music and the atmosfere makes the visit to Gallo Nero a quick visit to Italy. Great job! More
