    Garlic-seared shrimp and mixed grill
    Jenny M.

    We came here for my birthday dinner and it didn't disappoint! Both of us were not too hungry so we split an appetizer (garlic pan-seared shrimp), an entree (mixed grill), and a bottle of wine. Even with the reduced portion we were both stuffed! The shrimp tasted incredible - it was perfectly cooked and seasoned, although slightly on the oily side. The meats were super tender and well-marinated, we enjoyed every cut! The interiors of the restaurant is also adorably decorated with winter themed trinkets! Do make sure to make a reservation ahead of time tho, they're almost always fully booked!

    Best fish pot I ever had!!!

    When my boss found out I was going to Antwerp, he highly recommended this place, and I totally…read moreunderstand why. We had so much fun at this place and the experience was just so unique from just about anything we've been to. I feel it's important I give the same advice that the lovely German couple gave to us while my wife was pouring over the (very short) menu. "Just get the ribs, honey!" If you come here, come here for the ribs. If you don't want ribs, or don't like ribs... that's ok. But you might be happier going somewhere else. The vibe and the service of the place were great. I loved how if you asked for wine, they would bring a MASSIVE bottle to your table and just measure what you drank at the end. As for the food, the curry butter potato was excellent. As for the ribs, I'm American and I LOVE BBQ - so I'll be honest, if you're a sommelier of ribs, they won't be the best you ever had. But they're good and it's all you can eat. So just sit back and have fun. This is a place you go for the experience, and the food doesn't detract from it at all. I will totally drag anyone I'm with to this place if I find myself in Antwerp again. Excellent.

    Went twice during my visit in Antwerp. The rib sauce is almost addicting, with a unique flavor…read more Curry butter baked potato, incredible!! The service was absolutely fabulous.

They said they were out, but we were not told this when ordering. My husband ordered a burger well done and it came pink in the middle. We asked for ketchup for the fries and were charged $6 for ketchup. I could have bought bottles of ketchup for that price. These problems are just the highlights. After we complained, the waitress (supposedly the manager) ranted and raved to other customers in the restaurant. I would never recommend or go back to this restaurant.

The first encounter was with the host, she was very rude with an attitude and was mad that we didn't have a reservation for our party even tho you can tell they could of accommodate us with no issue. Our waitress was awesome and respectful. The bread was great, the piña colada was more on the liquid side, not frozen at all. Everyone enjoyed their steak, the pasta is very big can feed two people unless you are very hungry. We had to encounter the host again to get checked out and she was very difficult to work with. Our waitress stated we can pay separate at the counter but the host "didn't have time" to separate our bill and someone has to pay for everyone and then we pay that person. Great place but rude host!

It's hidden down a quiet courtyard, right in the middle of the city but completely away from the noise and bustle. Totally one of those "if you know, you know" kind of places. The atmosphere here is just magical -- rustic, romantic, and old-fashioned in the best way. Even though we were seated outside in chilly weather, it still felt cozy and inviting. You could tell this was one of those restaurants that lives and breathes its history. Now, the food -- We ordered the duck breast with red porto jus and gratin dauphinois, and the beef stew. The gratin was so good -- creamy, cheesy, and perfectly comforting. The duck, though, was a bit of a letdown -- quite tough and hard to chew, which was disappointing because the sauce was lovely. The beef stew, on the other hand, came out piping hot (just how I like it!) and was hearty and flavorful, though a tad on the sweet side for my taste. Still, it was delicious overall. Service was great -- friendly, attentive, and never hovering. Everything felt relaxed and unpretentious. Our bill came to just under $100 USD, which I thought was very reasonable for the quality, setting, and experience. If you're wandering around Antwerp and want to escape the crowds while enjoying a cozy, candlelit meal in a spot full of old-world charm, this is the place to go.
