This restaurant is located 6 - 7 blocks from the Botanical Gardens subway / tram stops. The area…read moreimmediately around it seemed to have a lot of restaurants. We first tried to eat here on a Thursday evening, but when we arrived there was a 25-minute wait if you had not made a reservation. It was raining that day, so we opted to just find another place to eat. The following evening (Friday), we had a bit more time to prepare so we made a reservation with them at 6 p.m. The layout of the restaurant is somewhat unusual. You enter in a small space (which may have had a couple of tables at sidewalk-level, but I'm not sure). You then climb a half-flight of stairs up past a kitchen area to the main dining room. Here they had several tables along each wall extending towards the back, where they had an additional 2 - 3 tables. We sat in the back. If the weather is nice, they may have a couple of tables out on the sidewalk, but again I'm not certain of that. If anyone in your party is disabled, you may have a limited seating option. That wasn't an issue for us, though. Where we sat in the back, we got to watch them prepare the cocktails. The place was busy but our server kept checking on us. Our drinks came out fairly quickly. The entrees took a bit longer, but the timing was still reasonable. I got a noodle dish which was quite good. The portion was reasonable and I finished it. I think both the others in our party got soup-noodle combinations which they also liked. The place appeared to be a family-run business (potentially). The staff managed the crowd well. Though you need to plan ahead a bit, the meal here was worth it. If I were back in Brussels, I'd consider returning here for a meal.

Knees to chin - Peking duck roll, pork bun and rice with peanut sauce

I visited Knees to Chin in a couple of different towns in Belgium, and enjoyed it for what it is -…read morea quick bite, decent variety and quick and friendly service. My favorite roll was the Peking duck. I've also tried the rice with peanut sauce and the pork bun. While the bun wasn't my favorite, it wasn't that bad. While I'm not vegetarian, there were plenty of options. I ate there each time (usually in between museum visits or other plan) and really liked having all of the different sauces at my easy disposal on my table to try. I returned a few times because I never felt overly stuffed or uncomfortable despite eating, what I thought, plenty of food and was able to quickly get back to walking a ton without feeling full/bloated. I think it's definitely worth a visit!

I ordered the Lunch Menu (10,80€ if I remember right). It includes one roll and two side dishes…read more This is the peking duck roll with miso soup and cabbage as sides. There are many different sauces to choose from like lemongrass, sweet chili, soy sesame, hoisin and peanut sauce. For those allergic to peanuts most of the menu has peanuts in them except for the veggie versions. But don't worry, the servers are very nice and they know what to recommend. I know because I had to send back the cabbage (you see the peanut toppings) and the peking duck roll (has crushed peanuts inside too). I didn't realize there were peanuts. They were so kind to give me a replacement, Salmon Roll and cabbage without peanuts. The roll wasn't as delicious as the peking duck but I still liked it with some sriracha and soy sesame sauce on top. Overall, I loved the service. I am so grateful they were kind to me and sensitive enough about allergens. Gonna go back to try other non-peanut dishes. Or maybe they'll help me by making a typical dish minus the peanuts.

We called on a Sunday to make reservations for the same night at 8 pm (FYI - ressos are important…read morein Brussels because once they're full, they're full - you can't even wait). We showed up at 7:30 to see if they would be able to seat us and they did. I initially found this place on Google because we needed some Chinese food and this place had good reviews/was close by our hotel. I'm not sure if the food was worth the 40 minute wait, but it satisfied the craving. We had the steamed pork dumpling. This was pretty meh - you could get similar quality in the freezer section. We then had the black pepper chicken. I was thankful for the huge portion but it was pretty salty. It definitely needed more than the bowl of rice it came with. Finally, the best dish of the night was beef chow fun. I didn't have high expectations for this one but it tasted pretty close to the ones at home in NYC, with plenty of wok hei. I'd definitely recommend this dish and if I were a betting woman, I would guess that their other noodle dishes might be pretty good too, so maybe just stick to those.

I think this is the best Chinese food in Brussels! Flavours…read moreand textures of each dish reminded me of my time in Shanghai. I intend to return often to sample many other dishes on the menu. Service was very friendly with a smile and good humour. We ordered more than we could eat and took food home. As leftovers at home, it tasted better than any take-out Asian food we have ever gotten. A true testimonial to the talented chefs! The restaurant is not large with seating for about 35. Indeed, the hostess/waitress had to turn away many clients during our dinner. Many Asian people at other tables along with a few tourists or local Europeans. I highly recommend this restaurant over any other Asian restaurant in the area. Location is near the bourse behind the Marriott hotel.

We visited this place based on the many positive reviews, but unfortunately, our experience was…read morevery disappointing. We tried calling several times to make a reservation, but no one answered, and we couldn't find any online booking system. It left us wondering--how do people even manage to get a table here? When we arrived, we saw an empty table with no reservation sign on it. However, the chef saw us, came over, and abruptly said, "We're full!" before we could even ask a question, then walked away. One of the staff members also completely ignored us, which felt quite rude and unwelcoming. No matter how good the food might be, this kind of attitude makes us not want to return. They seriously need to improve their reservation system and reconsider how they treat potential customers.

I have been here 3 times now already and the third time has only confirmed the first impression I…read morehad when I first came here. This place is for me the best sushi place as far as quality/price is concerned. The quality of the sushi is just exquisite and definitely equals that of some other restaurants who offer the same freshness and variety but for double the price. Seriously. Nevertheless, it is not only about the sushi. The restaurant offers a separate menu with the house suggestions presenting different kinds of Japanese appetizers that are really delicious and so ... Japanese. The best way to enjoy these appetizers is to order a bunch of them and share them. The last time I went there, my friends and I had the squid carpaccio (in a citrusy juice), agedashi tofu (fried to perfection), eggplant in miso sauce (I'm not a big fan of eggplant, but this dish was a game-changer), layered eggplant with beef (very tasty) and an assortment of tempura (not greasy at all and crusty until the end of our meal). We wanted to order the o-toro (fatty tuna) sashimi as well, but they don't have that one on Mondays, which means I will have to come back. But I don't see that as a problem, :). After our appetizers, we continued our meal with some sushi and sashimi. As already mentioned earlier, exquisite. As far as the place itself is concerned. Well, let's say it makes you feel in a small sushi joint in Japan. The place is small - but cozy -, so reservation is recommended. There is no AC, but only a couple of fans working in times of warm weather, definitely gives it a local feeling. On some days, it can be filled with Japanese people who really know how to enjoy their food, which makes you really feel as if you were in Japan for a little bit. Another nice factor is that you can order a bottle of shoju and leave it there with your name if you weren't able to finish it, so you can continue the next time you come again. Neat, isn't it? So, to conclude, there is definitely nothing that would stop me from going there again. Ok, I forgot to mention that the waiter can come off as a little bit arrogant. However, once you start chatting with him, he is unstoppable. :). The chef on the other hand doesn't say much, but I blame that on the fact that he's very concentrated behind the sushi bar, so no big deal. Can't wait to go there again.
