My husband and I split the platter and holy moly there was a ton of fresh seafood! Highlights for…read moreme were the raw oysters and the warm shrimp. The seasoning on warm items was very flavorful. I skipped some of the cold items (snails, small shrimp) because they were either too hard to eat or I didn't like the taste. Surprisingly, the best thing we had was the lobster bisque. I don't think I'd get the platter again. The seafood was okay but I don't know that it was worth the price. The lobster we had had very little meat inside. Service was friendly but the restaurant was basically empty the whole time we were there. Hopefully it picked up once we left because this is a local spot a little off the beaten path of tourist restaurants.

Honestly, we should have gotten one order of fries to share since both fried fish entries were already big portions. There's also a section where you can get a bunch of dipping sauces for your fried fish. From the two fried fishes, I enjoyed eating the kibbeling more than the lekkerbekje.

In general, I dislike eating lobster in a restaurant as it is typically a snobby affair and I have yet to master eating and enjoying a lobster without having it all over me. But Den Beer is super informal, it is like you go to your grammy's house to eat. The owner is 78 years old, she is a real gem: fierce but welcoming. The food itself is why I keep on coming here and keep on wanting to come back: the lobster is just DELICIOUS. I've tried several styles over the years and all are finger licking good. The lobsters are always super juicy and cooked to perfection, it would be hard to pick my favorite style as all of them are the bomb but maybe the grilled flambe with whiskey has a slight edge in my book. I truly wish Gusje, the owner, a long life and good health as I will continue to come again and again!

After quick search, I ended up coming here. I think we are talking about the same guy, but thought he was patient and kind enough to me, lol! Anyhow I picked octopus, razor clam, and some oysters - they were all tasty, but the best was octopus! It was so tender and flavorful...perfect combo with hummus (and bread)!

Clean table and clean bathroom was a plus!

The restaurant itself is in the Clubhouse of the Watersportvereniging Arne, upstairs, and is decorated with nautical and local memorabilia. The staff have obviously read the '' you don't have to be mad to work here ''and taken it to heart! Friendliest crew I've come across in ages. It's also known as ''Den baas en zijn madam'' (the boss and his wife). The menu is in Dutch and English, the Dutch menu is the better value. 14 garlic prawns in Dutch, 10 in English, but when I joked with our waiter about 25 came on the plate! Yahoo!! Beautiful steak for herself, great lamb cutlets for me, veg and frites in abundance. No room for puds. EUR2.70 for Duvel. It's a real reason to visit Middleburg. Combined with a trip to de Mug, nice evening out.

I wanted some seafood for my first meal in Brussels and specifically walked over here after all the…read morereviews I read. This was a combo fish monger and restaurant in one. Large refrigerated cases faced the street with a variety of fresh fish, shellfish and premade seafood items. In the back the kitchen and food prep were visible and completed restaurant or to go orders were queued at its own counter (though staff would drop off at your table). Prices were quite reasonable comparing them to other restaurants in the more touristy streets. Also the cashier was very friendly with both locals and visitors. My favorite was the razor clams followed by the mussels and fish soup. Each was nicely seasoned and good size/ meaty for the shellfish. A separate bowl was also provided to hold all the empty shells. The WCs were located down a spiral staircase in the rear of the restaurant and was tiny. Overall a great start to my eating in Brussels.

I loved them both, but since I was not sure I would ever get to try the Dutch style in my life-time and despite it being a bucket list food, I was so enormously grateful. Even more grateful because it tasted amazing. I plowed through more than one I must admit. I might never get to try it again so I had to get more than one. Don't judge me. LOL. Anyway, the lady that helped me once I had one of the pickled and one of the cured ones was very patient and very kind. She seemed genuinely interested in what I thought and listened to me as I gushed like a fan boy over their products. I will never forget that and I was very appreciative. The place is pretty close to central, downtown Brussels and it was nice to just go to a table out in a courtyard and enjoy one of the favorite things I had on that trip. It was awesome.
