We first tried to eat here on a Thursday evening, but when we arrived there was a 25-minute wait if you had not made a reservation. It was raining that day, so we opted to just find another place to eat. The following evening (Friday), we had a bit more time to prepare so we made a reservation with them at 6 p.m. The layout of the restaurant is somewhat unusual. You enter in a small space (which may have had a couple of tables at sidewalk-level, but I'm not sure). You then climb a half-flight of stairs up past a kitchen area to the main dining room. Here they had several tables along each wall extending towards the back, where they had an additional 2 - 3 tables. We sat in the back. If the weather is nice, they may have a couple of tables out on the sidewalk, but again I'm not certain of that. If anyone in your party is disabled, you may have a limited seating option. That wasn't an issue for us, though. Where we sat in the back, we got to watch them prepare the cocktails. The place was busy but our server kept checking on us. Our drinks came out fairly quickly. The entrees took a bit longer, but the timing was still reasonable. I got a noodle dish which was quite good. The portion was reasonable and I finished it. I think both the others in our party got soup-noodle combinations which they also liked. The place appeared to be a family-run business (potentially). The staff managed the crowd well. Though you need to plan ahead a bit, the meal here was worth it. If I were back in Brussels, I'd consider returning here for a meal.

She order the Miso Tofu Soup and said that it was very tasty. We also ordered the Fried Chicken and the Pumpkin Croquettes Curry. the Curry was very light in typical form and super yummy! Everyone ate all of their food. Now the servers were pleasant to European standards, which meant they let you be and came over when asked. The prices were a little on the pricier side of things but for the tourist area we were in seemed reasonable. The restaurant itself was in a shopping district with lots of great stores nearby. I found it cleaned and comfy, but other than the food nothing to write home about! If you are in the area and would like fast good food, I would give this place shot!

There is a pleasant garden patio outside and some dark indoor seating. The wItress brought me an english menu by chance. I ordered the Jasmine tea, Ban Bo (their spelling) rice noodle dish with pork and Nem (fried vegetable spring roll). I then told the waitrss that i was going to move inside and thats the last i saw of her. Eventually the cashier came by to ask what i ordered so i think she only serves outside. He brought my food but no tea. The food was pleasant, a little spendy for what it was and perhaps good for Brussels Vietnamese. Overall nice people, ok food but spendy. There isnt much in that area.

The place still looks surprisingly the same, but now, the place is supposed to be one of the better restaurants in Mechelen. I am not sure why there is this hype: it is a nice place to sit - always was: cosy, a bit dark, romantic you could say althouh I also used to come here on Saturdays at noon to grab a sandwich (not sure this is still possible). The menu is OK, but not great and prices along the same lines. Make a reservation: it is a small place and it is quickly crowded. The menu changes regularly. I think the main attraction of the place still is its atmosphere.

There are many different sauces to choose from like lemongrass, sweet chili, soy sesame, hoisin and peanut sauce. For those allergic to peanuts most of the menu has peanuts in them except for the veggie versions. But don't worry, the servers are very nice and they know what to recommend. I know because I had to send back the cabbage (you see the peanut toppings) and the peking duck roll (has crushed peanuts inside too). I didn't realize there were peanuts. They were so kind to give me a replacement, Salmon Roll and cabbage without peanuts. The roll wasn't as delicious as the peking duck but I still liked it with some sriracha and soy sesame sauce on top. Overall, I loved the service. I am so grateful they were kind to me and sensitive enough about allergens. Gonna go back to try other non-peanut dishes. Or maybe they'll help me by making a typical dish minus the peanuts.
