Can't say enough about this casual place, so so good! Staff was also very accommodating to our lack of Dutch and French speaking.

We stayed here for a night since we caught a concert in town. The hotel was OK; nothing really…read morespecial and at the time, in July, quite crowded so not at it's lowest prices. They have a health spa there - sauna, massages, steam, etc - so it is a well used hotel for that reason. We stayed in the older section of the hotel; well I hope it was the older section because he looked it and the hallways are in need of some paint and other repairs. But the room was good. Clean and decent sized bathroom with a shower that worked well. I did book a double room with a queen sized bed though but got two single beds. We did have breakfast and there is quite a selection, so to me this was the best part. Oh, the fact that it was just a 5 minute walk to the sea was also a plus.

The rain caught me on my day trip to Ghent, so when it was time to pick a restaurant, I was trying…read moreto take cover pretty quickly! I knew I wanted a restaurant that seemed local and had the kind of charm only a place in Belgium could give, and this place, even though I picked it fairly quickly, was a great choice. They had a very large covered patio, which was what I was looking for. I wanted to people watch and be outside, but sheltered, so this fit the bill! I was also interesting in eating all the local foods, and they served a dark meaty local stew which they recommended. I also got some soup, since I was cold to the bone! Everything was delicious, and I was not rushed at all. I was left alone to sit, read, and eat slowly. There wasn't a line or anything either- so I knew I wasn't taking up someone's table who needed it. I finished everything except for my beer- I am a lightweight and can't finish a drink! Everything was clearly home made and stick-to-your-ribs hearty, which is what I needed on that cold day. The prices were very reasonable, and the quality was high. There were a lot more smokers on the patio than I am used to in America, but that's just par for the course, and my only 'complaint' - not that I would even call it that.

The restaurant is super romantic with white linen cloth. Also really spacious. When we made a reservation, we told them we had a baby and they actually gave us a dining room all by ourselves! Probably partly not to disturb the other patrons. But we were able to have a stroller next to us, which was awesome! The service was great! They were super nice and accommodating and kept checking in on us to make sure we were doing ok. Highly recommended for a romantic date!

They're somewhere in between tourist traps and standard brasserie's. The food is ok if you're hungry and the beach-view is always a plus.

One of us had the gamba (shrimp) with anise. The sauce was very good. Another had tortelloni with mushrooms and described it as tender, flavorful, and fresh. The remaining two of us had the tortelli with prosciutto. It was very fresh pasta and you could even taste a hint of nutmeg in the filling. Wait staff was a little sluggish toward the end of our meal but otherwise low-key and friendly. Noticed that many people ordered pizzas while we were here and they looked appetizing as well.
