This restaurant is really amazing! The food is just great and the prices reasonable. We like drinking wine, however our knowledge is quite limited. The staff suggested a superb red wine to go with the meal. If you are in Antwerp and you like great food, just go to De Godevaart. But make sure to make reservations in advance. More

Words will fail to describe the godevaert, so I'll try to not say too much so you can discover it for yourselves. What you see on your plate is .... not what it is, close your eyes and sample the pallet ! Wines were excellent and went great with all the plates, service discreet and very professional. The diners ...... More

In Nov 2011, we had the 3-course Fall Menu in the Godevaart. We asked for a wine recommendation, which provided us with an excellent Barbera wine (2005) that matched perfectly with the different courses. Amuse, starter, main dish and dessert were absolutely astonishing. The different tastes blended very well and the fresh-baked bread was the cherry on top of the... More

The Godevaart is one of our favourite restaurants managed by a young, creative chef with a very nice wife . The food is delicious, with a "molecular" touch, a good balance of tastes. No culinary snobism as in some renowned restaurants but a down-to-earth kitchen... The choice of wines is sometimes special but always well matched with the plates. It... More

We were a bit hesitant with this restaurant since we've not always been impressed with 'molecular' cooking. However, we were glad we endured the cold weather the evening we'd booked (we took tram 10/11 which stops just round the corner, two minutes walk away) since we thoroughly enjoyed our experience; for the first time in longer than I can remember...
