Great place to have a beer and an honest feed. Large range of beers, good Belgian food and a nice atmosphere. Great place for a boozy lunch that continues on into the night. More

First time here and it will also be the last. The dining room and bar are attractive to look at but incredibly noisy so as to make conversation difficult even when the restaurant is not particularly crowded. Our meals were expensive and poor quality. The wagyu steak we had were tough, though cooked as requested. It was wagyu in name... More

Went to this place for the first time last night and was pleasantly surprised. We liked the feel of the place and will definitely go back. The decor was pretty cool and the lighting was nice, but on the minus side, the tables were a little close together. Food was good although it took a while before we got it.... More

We have dined quite a few times and each time we go, the service and food goes down hill that bit more. The last time our meals were very poor and the service was despicable. We asked 3 times to get a particular wine and a french waiter had NO IDEA what the wine was. We gave up and went... More

Belgian beer cafes are a chain and the look and feel are pretty standard, but its a good look and feel. The strength here is the marvelous array of truly wonderful Belgian beers and some hearty Flemish fare to go with it. Try a Kwak even if you have to pay the $50 deposit on the miniature yard glass in... More

We went here with a group of friends on a Saturday night. We were only able to book a 6pm or 8pm sitting, even though when we arrived, the restaurant was mostly empty. The bar service was slow, the wine overpriced, the beers looked good in their fancy glasses though. The Restaurant was quite brightly lit, and the dinner service... More

Three things i love about Brussels: The Bellevue Kriek Cherry Beer, the grilled mussels and those beer-battered chips! Although its a simple menu its affordable and a treat. You can't go wrong at this place :) Fantastic atmosphere and awesome location right in the heart of the city. If you're not into the whole suits crowd i wouldn't go there... More

The mussels are served in buckets with your choice of cooking style, and are not necessarily to be found in the suits who work at this end of town and drop in here. The price of the beer and the food is highish, but the quality is good. They also do the best beer battered chips (also on the expensive... More
