We seemed to be the only English speaking table, everyone else was talking French, so Carnivore seems to be a true local favorite. I chose the crispy fried shrimp as a starter, no disappointment there. The grilled half lobster main course was seafood perfection: hot, moist and succulent. My BFF got the rosemary & pepper pork chop, which I stole a bite of and found it pure tender tastiness. All mains came with a savory serving of Belgian frites and grilled skewer of veggies. The cool and creamy lemon panacotta dessert made for a perfect climax to the extraordinary meal...shrimp, lobster, frites, and panacotta for 25€: I'm happy.

On our second night in Brussels, we went to Pampas for dinner, a Brazilian steak house that was a…read moreshort walk from our hotel. While expensive, the food was tasty! For €34.95* per person, you got an assortment of meats to choose from (beef, chicken, fish, prawns, pork, and lamb), and everything I had was very tasty. (I didn't eat everything as I don't like pork or lamb.) To be honest, I've been to other Brazilian steakhouses before and thought they were OK to pretty good, but Pampas was excellent! This is the first time I truly liked the food. In addition to the meats they bring to you on skewers, you also get an assortment of tapas. €34.95 is not cheap, but the quality of the food was excellent, and you don't leave hungry. *Per their website, they also offer an= vegetarian option for €21.90.

We were served a plate with some veggies first, but since there wasn't anything special on it, we largely ignored it. A bit of a waste, really... Then we were offered some garlic bread. Usually I love garlic bread, but a mayo based garlic sauce instead of garlic butter? Methinks not! The chips and oven baked potato were quite disappointing as well. After a round of mushrooms, finally the meat arrived! We were quite early, so we were the only ones in the restaurant at first, but apparently that didn't keep them from grilling full size skewers. Since it is impossible to eat a whole skewer with just two persons, I was wondering how they could possibly control how thoroughly cooked a piece of meat would be. As it turned out, they couldn't: some pieces were extra-rare, others extremely well done. At first I thought it was just the Brazilian way of cooking specific kinds of meat, but when the same kind came back cooked completely differently, it was obvious they were just being very inconsistent. Apart from that, I got the feeling they were trying too hard to fill customers up with 'cheap stuff', just to save on meat. I don't mind paying a bit more for an all-you-can-eat restaurant if it offers more than just a buffet -- e.g. Chinese and Indian -- or one dish -- e.g. spare-ribs -- but this rodízio just doesn't deliver...

We noticed many guests ordering the paella, so we decided to try the seafood paella along with six oysters, escargot, and a salad. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the customer service was excellent. Overall, all the seafood tasted fresh and flavorful. However, the seafood in the paella was slightly overcooked, which caused it to lose some of its natural juiciness and affected the texture. Other than that, everything else was great, and we had an enjoyable dining experience. :)

Outdoor seating was the most popular but we dined inside out of the heat. Fans helped a bit but more would be better. Our server highlighted the lobster and sharing dishes but we ended up just getting paella and grilled fish. I was quite happy with the sea bream which was a substantial portion for the price. It was cooked nicely and very meaty with a mild flavor. The accompanying sides were not an afterthought since vegetables were tender, seasoned and the fried potato cylinders added a little texture. The paella was also a decent choice with lots of seafood variety but if the rice was wetter than expected and missing the browned crunchy aspect. The entrees were quite filling and we didn't have enough space for dessert. Service was as expected. One item to point out, we caught whiffs of cigarette smoke from the diners outside (via open front windows) which was a bit annoying.

Good burgers & steak, fair pasta, and Belgian fries that needed salt and needed Belgian sauce that usually comes with fries in Brussels. Does not serve water with meals-only sells customers bottled waters. Servers were nice but over-extended, trying to handle two outdoor sections (one near the building and one nearer the street). Difficult to reach if you are on the opposite side of the street and no convenient parking when we were there, because of road construction blocking much of the boulevard at the nearby intersection.

A friend and I had lunch, afternoon coffee, and dessert here - and everything was pretty standard fare but high quality and tasty, which is all I ask for. I had the Flemish Stew and it was super savory, filling, and meaty (which is what I wanted after a long day of exploring!) It came with a little side salad (that was nothing to write home about) and Belgian fries, that were similar to the "steak fries" we are used to in the US, but a little thinner. The fries came with mayo for dipping which is an extremely Belgian thing (that I also love and have adopted myself at home). The coffee we had after lunch was Italian espresso and was creamy and delicious. It came with a little mini cookie treat for dipping! We wanted another sweet treat for dessert so we shared the Strawberry Belgian Waffle and it was superb. An extra fluffy waffle base with a scoop of ice cream on top, covered in strawberry slices and whipped cream. So good. Wonderful location, great views, and some standard fare for food (except the sweet stuff!) I'd recommend stopping here for a quick lunch or just for a fantastic waffle and coffee if you don't have time for a full meal.
