Walking back to my hotel, my stomachs growling because I didn't eat at the Christmas Market. Looking for restaurants on Yelp App during my walk back and noticed Huggy's ( which some friends had tried Monday night) on my way. Looking from the street they have plenty of seating available. I'm seated and offered menu in English. My initial request is a Chimay Blue but I'm informed that they do not have other local Belgium beers but only special beer brewed for the restaurant. I settle on the Shiva IPA (7% ABV/ 40 IBU. It's good. The menu offers suggested pairings with specific beers but I go with a Bacon Cheeseburger. BTW...they have a bacon beer. Bacon Cheeseburger arrived with fries. And its pretty good. And some of the better fries I've had in Brussels. Overall great burger. Great service! Worth a visit if find yourself in the area.

The pure roast taste of the burger patty was just twenched a bit by tomato #ketchup, but just to ensure that the burger is not dry, not just drenching it in sauce that kills all the other flavours. The bread was white and thin, but very crisp, yet again aiming to have the real king of the burger make even greater: The just mentioned patty. Also, the cucumber was very pure and genuine. They also ask everyone whether they want the burger rare, medium or done. So professional! And they really had a talent turning a possible 3 star rating to a 5 star one. I ordered a jacket potato with my burger and it was hardly warm in the outside and of course even less in the inside. After thinking two minutes (I hate complaining in restaurants) I pushed myself to go and it turned out, immediately and without questions they brought me a new one. They made me feel so valued and were complying, I hardly ever saw it as being so self-evident! That's what made me think, at no place I was ever so convinced that they deserve 5 stars! Maybe another factor also helped: It tasted like a burger I ate in Canada a long time ago at a Georgian Bay beach. All that was missing today was the breeze from the "seaside"... hmmm. I indeed think, the burger place owned the merit of the memory bonus as they concentrated on the pure taste of the products. That's what makes them outstanding! Definitively need to try it

I'll keep it short, because I was very disappointed by this restaurant, as I was so looking forward…read moreto it. Why? 1) Because their website makes their hamburgers look succulent, 2) finally a different kind of restaurant in the EU quarter. What happened? With a couple of colleagues, we decided to go here for lunch. My colleagues ordered a chicken burger, a falafel burger and an Apple Jack. I went for the most expensive I think: the guacamole burger (22 euros!!!) so my expectations were high (for that price...). When our burgers arrived, we were impressed by the size and the look. However, here we go: - Fries were way too greasy, with no taste. The only taste we had was the taste of oil. - The meat was cooked as desired. However, the meat was just plain. - The bun was way too dry. - My guacamole? Not that much guacamole in it and the taste of the guacamole lacked that little kick of the guacamole. - My colleague's falafel burger was just huge and could not be considered as a burger, as she had to eat her falafel individually and in the end did not touch the bun. Some positive points that still gives it a 2 star? - They put some efforts to have a very neat decoration to create a nice atmosphere inside - The salad that comes with it is good, fresh and with a nice dressing But 22 euros for just enjoying the salad? That's not going to have me come back. Really too bad though, because the EU quarter needs some better options for lunch and if possible at reasonable prices. Requirements that this restaurant doesn't meet.

Pretty common burger place…read more I liked the meat, the waitress was friendly, they answered nicely and fast to my email, they had a good range of beers and they had gluten free bread. I didn't like that we had to pay 2 more euros for the gluten free bread, the food was pretty fast, the tables were too close to each other, the plate too big and the prices a little bit too expensive for the experience (22€ for the Jack Daniels burger +2€ for the bread) So if you want a burger and you're in the neighborhood why not but I don't think I'll go back.

Chèvre, racelette & about a million other cheeses paired with the most scrumptious homemade veggie burger patty Also chose the Le Truffe with ton of truffle flavor Endless fries but we couldn't even finish the first serving it was so abundant. Sauces were a lovely add on.

The next time we came was just for drinks - good, tall-ass icy cocktails on a hot-ass summer day, for 5 EUR each. And the bartender was really friendly and into talking to gringos.
