Note, if you're looking for pepper saus, Zoete Bron had the best one during our whole entire trip. Hands down. Another thing about this tavern/brasserie, is that they are super family friendly. If you have a young one, they have a whole section with toys and what not to keep the kids entertained until the food arrives and also after they're done eating. For food, I had the vol au vent. I kind of find this dish sort of akin to chicken pot pie in the States. I enjoyed it and pastry was nice and light mixed in with the chicken and sauce it was very enjoyable. I got to try the sea bass, which was also good. If you're looking for a family friendly restaurant, look no further as this place will fulfill that need!

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.

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.

I have never tasted Moroccan Cuisine so this was definitely a culinary treat. I think I've sampled as many dishes as I could amongst the family members that I had with me that day. I was able to meet the owner and the Chef that day. Though I have forgotten their names already, but I do remember that they were very engaging and attentive. There was a slight language barrier but in the language of food, it wasn't hard to discern the issue. I've sampled quite a few side dishes and entrees. For the life of me, I don't remember what was ordered but as you can see from the pictures that I have posted, let me tell you in all honesty, it was absolutely delicious! If I were to be in Belgium again when I visit Europe in 2014, I will definitely look for this restaurant again.

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.
