I can't not believe it took me this long to visit this restaurant, but glad I did. I was told…read morereservations were recommended so we made those for dinner. We were sat quickly upon arrival. Service throughout was excellent. Food was delicious and I was quite pleased with their house rose wine. The steaks were cooked as ordered and the salmon wasn't a favorite that day but I still liked it. I will definitely return to try more of their cuisine.

The restaurant is the best I've experienced so far in Belgium. The staff was very friendly and…read morehelpful. The ambiance was welcoming. And the food was superb. I had the menu and started with the carpaccio which was delicious. Next came la brochette de bœuf and it was amazing. I like my steak on the rare side and they prepared it and seasoned exactly as I like it. I find that many times restaurants over cook their beef. Last came the créme brûlée and my wife and I both agree it was the best we've ever had. The prices are on the high side but at L'Effet Boeuf you get what you pay for!

We had lunch at this French-style steakhouse, and it was a nice, casual atmosphere. The food was…read moregreat and the staff was very friendly. The menu was both in English and French, and our waitress spoke a little bit of English as well. The meal I ordered was an appetizer of lobster raviolis in a shellfish sauce, and my entree was a steak and onion kabob with a 3-cheese sauce. I enjoyed it a lot. My one problem with this place was how wildly overpriced the food was. For my appetizer, I received 3 lobster raviolis and it cost 16 Euros. The steak and onion kabob, while delicious, was almost 30 Euros. Including my meal and my girlfriend's, plus we both had a glass of wine, it came out to 98 Euros for lunch. That is the only bad part about it. If you don't mind forking over some money, this is a very nice place to eat.

Nice variety of burgers, students' menu, kids' menu, tapas, salads, chicken, pork, ribs, fish, hot dogs and milkshakes!!! They also have a good selection of drinks, and yes, that includes alcoholic beverages. The waiter (and I believe the owner) was very nice and spoke a little English. It is close to the Saint Ghislain train station. There are also stores nearby. Definitely returning.

Tasty American themed Diner placed in a nice downtown in Sainte Ghilan. I find the options to be…read moretypical of a diner with a Belgian twist. Burgers, hotdogs, salads, fish options, ribs, and chicken options for food. Drink menu consist of well drinks, American soft drinks, and shakes. Starters are listed as Tapas. They have jalapeno poppers, mozzarella sticks, onion rings and various other options. We had burgers (Mexican burger, Bacon cheeseburger), a chicken skillet (almost like a fajita) and a kids meal. Shakes are standard and also alcoholic based. I find the shakes to have tasted very good. Service is above par for Belgium. Prompt greeting, quick return from time of order to table. The atmosphere is very 50's diner. Reservations are a must because they fill up fast. Make sure to try if in the area. Definitely recommend.

One of the Best dining experiences we have had to date in Mons. Located a short walk down from the…read moreGrand Place almost kitty corner to the Parking Grand-Place. We were their first customers for the dinner meal. My wife's french is decent, although she has to ask people to slow down for her. Our waiter was superb, he didn't mind that we had language difficulties, and he even apologized for his poor English skills. He really made our experience world class. We decided we wanted wine tonight, but have little experience with European wines, so we definitely needed help, and asked for a white wine that was slightly sweet. He brought us out two different 30ml samples, one dryer and more grapefruitier than the other, which I liked, and Sheri enjoyed the sweeter wine, can't remember what they were though. We noticed that they had charcuterie on the Menu, but were worried that it was the cheap cheese and salami cubes we have snacked on at other restaurants here in Belgium. When asked our waiter named all 6 cheeses on the board and we recognized several of them, so we were really excited and ordered the mixed plate of meat and cheese. When our waiter brought out the charcuterie board along with a basket of fresh homemade brown bread we thought we died and went to heaven. Every delightful bite was perfection. We then ordered our dinner for the night, Sheri ordered the Orange Duck, and I ordered The Herve Burger (cheeseburger), both medium rare. At the same time, I decided that I wanted a red wine with my burger and asked what he would recommend. They have this Red Blend called "Suivi des Fees" from Brulhois France; it was superb and perfect with my burger. The Herve cheese on this burger was a Belgium earthy creamy ripe cheese that was awesome and made this a delicious unique burger. My wife loved her Orange Duck, and we traded bites of food so both could sample each other's main dish and we both really enjoyed our food. The best was that we considered our food and service to be 5-Star level fine dining; we were very pleasantly surprised that with 4 glasses of wine, charcuterie, and two main courses that our bill was only €64, in the states this meal would have cost greater than $100 U.S. We love Mons, so we definitely will be back for another scrumptious culinary experience.
