    Conveniently located a block from the beautiful Grand Place in Brussels. This is the place to try the delicious Belgian fries. It's thicker than what we all know as French fries. And there is a national pride for this particular food. It is fried twice and the flavor is distinct when compared to the French fries. They have ketchup, but the fries is normally doused in mayonnaise.

    Super convenient location! After a long day of exploring and eating waffles, I was ready for a snack (aka Belgian fries). Not really much to say except that the service was fast and the fries were actually pretty good. Definitely not the best fries I've ever had, but also not the worst! I only ordered plain fries (I know, I'm boring), so I can't speak on behalf of the rest of the menu. Side note: this place is cash only (or at least used to be)

    no double deep fry, but still pretty good.  

I don't recommend the mayonaise as the locals do

    They don't do the second deep fry as you're supposed to for true Frite cooking. Still pretty good though...but you can go elsewhere for cheaper and better. I don't dig the mayonaise as the local do, gross!

    Maybe this was because we ordered our fries at 11:30 pm, but the fries were the worst I had in so long. Inside dry and outside oily, it was clear it was sitting there for the whole day, it was stale. They use polystyrene dish for sausage and their special fries, I didn't feel I was in a developed country. Hot food in plastic dish? I am happy they accept card.

    This is a cash only place. Favorite of the 3 times I had fries in Belgium. It was super fresh, super fluffy, and super crispy. The curry ketchup was very delicious while the garlic aioli was just OK. I'd suggest going with the mayo if these are your first fries in Brussels.

    Fryers where all the action takes place!

    My first experience with Belgian frites. Not bad. Even though these two stores anchoring a busy corner was clobbered with people. Ordering is easy since you simply walk up to the counter facing the street and be prepared to elect from the sauces. I chose Andalouse because I thought it sounded like Andouille. I like spicy. The french fries were good but lacked salt. However, I don't care since I was in Brussels! Inexpensive and a good way to sample the fare that makes Brussels quite popular. The frites stands in Belgium do not only specialize in french fries. They are the equivalent to our fast food joints so also serve burgers, hot dogs, skewers, and meatballs. I did not order a burger but watched one leave the counter while waiting for my french fries. I would liken it to Jack in The Box. 4 stars, since I found an even better frites place closer to Le Grande Place.

    A very touristy location but great fast food. The fries here were delicious and crispy, an some of the better ones I have had. The curry ketchup is a must. As with most of the fries in the area, they come in a paper cone with a tiny fork for convenience. The wurst here should not be missed, it comes on a bed of onions in a plastic container, and is moist and flavorful. Overall a cheap, delicious and quick stop.

    Just average U still have so many other better choice in Brussels The Frits is toooo crispy And the sauce just like McDonald's

    My first Belgian fries and I was not disappointed. In fact, I went back 4 times in a period of two days. They tasted great and were definitely a favorite. I liked them plain and for the price, 2,60, I found it reasonable!

    Mix #65- sausage, chicken, salad and fries and #23 wings

    This is a fast food restaurant where you could either take out or be served indoors. Came here for Belgium fries, though nothing special about it. One of the waiter was a bit rude when I asked if we could sit down since I didn't know how it worked. When we were seated, another waiter was great at taking our order. The wings were crispy and flavorful, the sausage was just okay. I wouldn't go over the top about this place, but if you want something quick and semi tasty. Come here, if not, explore somewhere else.

    Simply delicious, surely try the mayonnaise on your fries. Although mostly tourists visit it, I frequently go there because it is so good.

    Sometimes while traveling, if you're lucky, you'll find a hidden gem like Tonton Garby…read more My husband and I were heading to Bruges for a day trip, and we wanted to grab something to eat in Brussels before hitting the road. After walking around the main square, we went down a quaint little side street and stumbled upon this unassuming sandwich shop. The owner greeted us out front and told us he wanted to make us the best sandwich we've ever tasted. He said if we didn't like the sandwich, it would be free. We decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad we did. Not only is the owner one of the nicest people you'll ever meet, but his sandwiches are absolutely delicious! I can't even tell you what was in them, but they were incredible. Now every time we're in Brussels, we'll be stopping by Tonton Garby for a friendly visit, and a delicious sandwich.

    Took about 30-45 minutes to get my sandwich and there were about only 4 people in front of me. My…read morebrother told me to come try this place out. I can see why it takes so long. The owner is so passionate and friendly and tries to strike up a conversation with every single customer, no matter where they're from. I thought the customer service was next level. As for the sandwich, I want to preface that I don't eat regular sandwiches. I'm super picky and usually just get meat and cheese. NOTHING else. So his sandwiches weren't really my style. They looked very good but I know I wouldn't enjoy it if I just ordered off the menu. He puts a ton of fruits and cheeses into your sandwich and asks a bunch of questions of what you like before putting it together. I went for a blue cheddar cheese and since I wasn't getting anything else, he cut a gigantic chunk for my sandwich. The only downside is I think the only meat he uses is small salami slices. He put in triple the amount he usually puts but the cheese still took over the whole sandwich (I ended up buying more meat from the grocery store to fill it up). Every sandwich he makes is the same price and comes with a drink. I wanna say that his normal sandwiches are probably amazing. Mine was okay after I added all the meat into it. I also didn't eat it right away. But I think the customer service itself should receive 5 stars.

    Another Belgium place I got to try for some Belgian food…read more We couldn't decide what to order and ended up getting 3 entrees, which was way too much because the portions were so big. We ordered the beef stew, pork knuckle, and rabbit stew. Everything was delicious! And everything came with potatoes! We sat outside and had to put our drinks on the floor (all good!). Staff was very nice. Good thing we came right when they opened. After we were seated a line started forming.

    One of the best diing experiences we had in Brussels! The food was great and the service was…read moreoutstanding. Huge shoutout to Julian! He reminded us of a combination of Neil Fak (from The Bear) and Lazlow (from What We Do in the Shadows). He was coordinating the line, seating, and gave outstanding recommendations, as well as praise, when we picked our wine. We were quoted about 45 minutes to wait, as they don't take reservations. A two-top opened up inside and Julian was concerned that it would be too hot, so he made me go inside to check first. Thankfully, it was right by the open area leading to outside, so we took it and were seated in about 20 minutes, rather than 45. The place was packed the entire time we were there; its reputation certainly precedes it. Good energy and beautifully decorated with stunning art inside. Carbonades a la Biere (beef stew; 19.45 Euros) is their speciality and was delicious! So reasonably priced for the flavor and te size of the dish! After Julian mentioned that the lamb is the best dish on the menu, there was no question that I was ordering it. Jarret d'Agneau Roti (Roasted Lamb Shank; 27.35 Euros) was so very good! Full of Rosemary and so tender! As Julian was running by, I quickly asked him: "Tiramisu or Tarte Tatin?" No hesitation, he replied, "Tarte Tatin." I wasn't sure if he actually put the order in for us or not, but then it arrived at our table and it was delicious! Pear Tarte (8.65 Euros) with a side of ice cream. Not too sweet, with lovely spices in the pears. Cash only, always a line, but totally worth it!

I left to find something else but tried my luck & coming back. Glad I did! They have wine, but as I was told, beer is their thing. The food was excellent and the staff are colorful and efficient as the flow between tables! I had the meatballs (2 large ones), meals come with a small salad and a side & bread! The beer selection is wide. Mostly Belgium ones. Other tables had what looked like delicious tuna, lasagna and stew which they all seemed to enjoy.

    I am so sorry to not rave about this place like everyone else did…read more To start with the positives: -cute, cozy spot inside with a few outdoor tables. No reservations, so you have to wait in line. Luckily, the line moved pretty quickly and we were able to be seated inside. -service was great. The fabulously dressed flamboyant gentleman was kind and helpful. The sassy woman was hilarious! -Portions are pretty decently sized and priced fairly Why three stars? I just didn't enjoy anything that we ordered. Sadly, it was my least favorite meal that we had in Belgium. Based on all the reviews, I think it's clear that it's not the place per se, but what I was looking for. That being said, I still must be honest. What we ordered: Cheddar Croquettes (2 for 14 Euros): Just ok and this was one of the things that I felt was overpriced Carpaccio of Smoked Beef with White Truffle Oil (18 Euros): Again, just ok Meatloaf with "Jack Pepper" sauce (26 Euros): "Jack Pepper" means something different in Brussels. It was basically a peppercorn gravy. I wasn't a fan, but Jim G. enjoyed it. With this, we had frites and a small side salad. I know many people recommend that Flemish Beef Stew, but we already had that at Fin de Siecle, and I couldn't imagine that any place would top it, so we didn't get it here. Ultimately, this place isn't for me, but I seem to be in the minority.
