We had lunch here on a normal saturday afternoon.The food was good, tasteful and nicely presented…read more However the staff wasn't so pleasant, they often didn't know what was happening, had to wait quite a long time for our order and drinks, they got confused which table ordered what, and didn't know what was on the menu. The setting of this place is modern, newly renovated place I presume with a Champagne bar outside, which we used once aswel, and again, it took the staff almost 30minutes to notice us and take our order at the Champagne bar. This is quite a classy place, where alot of effort went into it, it's sad to see how staff can ruin such a nice place

From the owner: Le restaurant met à l'honneur les produits du terroir de la Commune de Durbuy et de ses voisines…read more Le produit incontournable est la bière brassée sur place : la Marckloff, elle est l'unique bière réellement brassée à Durbuy. Une ambrée, légère mais de caractère. En janvier et février, la maison est ouverte uniquement les vendredis, samedis et dimanches. Sauf pour les groupes vous pouvez demander une ouverture en semaine.

Eh - 2.5 stars rounding up…read more The good: * Location - if the weather is nice, the terrace seats, especially the ones right on the street - are great. We got a 4-top that was separate from the other diners but right on the street. * Frites - fresh and well cooked. * Artichoke starter was good. Cons: * Service is fairly dopey. * Steak - well seasoned and well cooked, but a little tough and fatty. * I got this carpaccio-like starter that just had way too much mayonnaise, and canned tuna fish in the middle. * House special main course had good meat, but was pretty lackluster.

Being from the same owners as my earlier reviewed place "Brasserie Fred", we didn't have high hopes…read morefor the service. However, the moment we arrived we noticed a day and night difference in staff, people were friendly, well informed and quick to help us. The food was heavenly, nothing more to say, it was almost perfect, the cooking time was exactly how it should be, and even the wine our waiter recommended matched everything perfectly. Definitely a recommendation for people who don't mind paying a little extra for excellent quality.

I got grilled dorade, kids got steak, and wife got a spicy spatchcoked chicken, and it was all good. Frites were good. Spoiled kids got dame blanche's for dessert. De Koninck on draft.

I am often asked how do I find the places I go....there are several ways. One of them led us to…read moreD'Artagnan and we were not disappointed. We had originally headed to the local family-run Bar Frape but were distressed to find it shuttered. Perhaps because they closed at 2000 and we were there shortly thereafter. Looking south along the river we spotted tables and chairs on the sidewalk so we headed in that direction. What we found was a trendy (and empty) bar that was obviously serving up what we were NOT looking for. That's when we spotted across the street what appeared to be a Eetcafe but upon further inspection found a joint billing itself as a Grand Cafe. Now, typically we steer away from Grand Cafes since our desire to impress is less than at times it should be. We have found Grand Cafes to not have any better food than Eetcafes and usually at twice the price. However, we decided to go outside our box and give it a try....and we are glad we did. Inside the D'Artagnan resembled more an Eetcafe than a Grand. While there was much more spit and polish than most Eets the atmosphere was that warm, comfy gezellig the Dutch are so wild about. We were looking for refreshment and a snack and ended up finding our favorite Dutch gin (2VC) which right then and there told us we were putting the rest of our evening on hold. We ordered the bouillabaisse and the anti pasta. Both excellent choices and between the both of us we could not finish. The bouillabaisse contained succulent portions of langostinos in a delicate seafood/tomato broth. The cheese bread on top was less a compliment than what was intended but good nonetheless. The anti pasta included ham, proscuitto, salami and pepperoni. Plus bread, olives, salad and scrumptious garlic mushrooms. With the exception of the pepperoni which was mealy, it was a great sampler. If you are not familiar with gezellig (gezelligheid) then you need to look it up or better, hang out here for an hour.... We will return.

The place is now called Cabaret Douze, but the ambiance, the service and the food is still amazing!…read moreAte here twice the last few days and the price/quality is simply outstanding. Also worth mentioning is the background music: just love it! Will be back here for sure.
