A great authentic Belgian meal while you're in Brussels! This restaurant has been around for a…read morelong time, is always packed, often with a lineup outside. But they do their best to seat as many people as possible. I got in fairly quickly because i was alone. The food was fantastic. I had the Carbonade a la Biere, and it was so great! Like a beef stew and very tasty. Also had some good Belgian beer. Service was attentive and very fast. The restaurant is lively and exciting - not really a quiet romantic dinner. But a lot of fun!

If you want to try Belgian food with reasonable prices then this was one good option in Brussels…read more I arrived early for Friday night dinner and the restaurant was just over half full with lots of available seating. While the register states No Cards one of the servers told the table next to mine not worry when they didn't have enough euros. Only a drink menu was provided and the dishes being served that day were handwritten on moveable boards or posted on the wall. I had on my list a couple to try but finally went with the Belgian carbonades à la biere which was beef stew with mashed potatoes in a dark gravy made with beer. The plate was quite generous and much appreciated since I devoured it. I enjoyed the creaminess of the potatoes swirled with gravy but the meat could've been a tad bit more tender. Service was good. I think everyone on the floor stopped by my table for one reason or the other. Ambiance was casual and looked like many people were taking their time over their meals. When finished you need head to the register to settle the tab. I paid in cash. Worth a return visit.

We…read morewere staying at an Airbnb place in the town, and we wanted to go to a good restaurant nearby. This place came up, but all the reviews were written in French, so I had a hunch that staff probably doesn't speak English. We put on a brave face and went. The first waiter didn't speak any English at all, but while we were lingering by the door and another waiter came by. He said he spoke a little English. He was very kind and accommodating. We tried to use Google Translate app, but didn't help much. But we got through. The foods were pretty good, and best of all, no tourists (even though we were tourists as well). We sat outside, so you hear the street noise, but that's about it. Good food, good wait staff, and good atmosphere. Whole 5/5 from me.

I ordered the Rabbit Stew…read morein Kriek Beer (€26), which was more like two large pieces of meat cooked in stew but not actually a stew (with some fries too). The rabbit meat was surprisingly tender and the stew/sauce added some nice flavor. For those who haven't had rabbit before, it takes kind of like chicken to be honest, just with smaller bones. I think the price was okay considering the quality and type of dish. The fresh grapefruit juice (€5.80) was very good too. The staff are very friendly, helpful, and attentive. I was seated right away and the service speed was pretty quick. They have a decently sized indoor space as well as outdoor patio seating. The environment has a traditional Belgian restaurant/pub kind of vibe. Overall, Le Bistro has high quality traditional Belgian food in a pleasant setting and I would definitely recommend it if you are in the area near Porte de Hal / Marollen.

This place has absolutely amazing food (which goes with the price). Their salads are great (I…read moreparticularly enjoy their goat cheese/honey and apples salad), but their other meaty dishes are great too. The inside of the restaurant is huge, so you can easily come in with a big group just as you can go there for a dinner-for-two. The roof patio is my favorite part of the restaurant, especially on a sunny day, for even though it's above the street, you get to see a lot of roofs and they have flowers on the white balustrade so you can almost imagine yourself on vacation. The staff is generally correct, though they have a tendency not to smile much (perhaps it's not considered to be the proper form when working at a "fancy" restaurant?). Still, they're always very helpful and definitely know what they're doing. A definite recommend for an outing when you want to take some time out of your day and have a fancy meal.

My wife settled on the beef stew with stoemp, I had the confit of beef chuck with a side of fries. They were both very tasty, the servings were perfect for normal appetites and the meal came with bread, and salad as well. We really enjoyed it, in retrospect I wish we had ordered a beef dish and something else, both dishes we had were excellent (the confit of beef practically fell apart with my fork) but the tastes were similar. Oh well, maybe next time. Highly recommended.

Very high quality food for this area, in a very friendly atmosphere. I think it was Anna (the chef) who came out and she was very sweet. I could see great care was taken in the preparation.
