Food is quite delicious coming from the south of France. Any apéritif is very exquisite. But I must say I expected a bit more. Service is professional and very helpful. If you want to get out of the city center because it is too crowded (for example, 10 Days Off Gent) and you want to get a bite, then, this is a nice option.

As of November, 2018 the place has been open for two years. The energetic and kind host welcomed us in, and we sat at a pleasant two-top with a view of the boulevard and passers-by. Eggs Benedict was listed as a house specialty, so we gave it a try. At €9, it was a little small (only half the size of a typical Benedict. More aptly named "Egg Benedict," it comes with just one egg, a single strip of bacon, and perfectly sauteed spinach on a single hearty piece of toast) - but the flavors were excellent. Instead of the usual hollandaise used in the US, which I find a bit bland, Bodega's serves a richer bechamel. This worked wonderfully. We also shared a €7.50 Greek yogurt and granola. Note that granola in Europe means a slightly different cereal- more like what we call muesli. Toasted and nicely flavored rolled oats with nuts and a bit of dried fruit, but without the clusters we typically see. It's quite tasty and similar to granola, but less crunchy. Good value. Coffee was typical European excellent. We had cafe con leche (coffee with milk). One of those will wake you right up. Total cost was €22. Not much more than we'd pay at a cafe at home, but far higher quality. Four stars; a great score by my standard.

We had Lamp kabobs and Lamb medallions, both average, little flavor and not traditional or what you might expect. The bruschetta actually had red peppers substituted for tomatoes, with a strange cheese on top. We have been to Barcelona and Mallorca and never seen anything like it, so be wary. I'm originally from Florida so I have a practiced eye for tourist spots, and this place meets the bill. standard tourist fare in the medieval center of town. open only for dinner, with a decent staff. the place looked beautiful though a little small.

I had the special Mexican dish, which was 2 tacos with chorizo, cheese and guacamole then the nopal quesadilla; both were delicious. They have a limited wine list but have both Belgian and Mexican beers as well as sangria and mixed drinks. They offered, and I accepted a Mexican corn dessert which was also very good. Prices are very reasonable. However, the only credit cards they accept are those with PIN numbers (European); debit cards with pins are OK except they do not take Amexco.

The menu is in Dutch and the staff was more than happy to explain everything in English for us.

Loved drinking my tea with a little Belgium chocolate they give you. For dinner we got clams, sea bass with cucumbers, falling off ox tail, and zucchini salad. All were well prepared, gourmet and delicious. Would highly recommend this place.

Along with drinks, I ordered the glazed pork belly. It was pretty awful and I don't use this word at all in any of my reviews. I think they were trying to put an Asian spin on it and make it taste like char siu or something. It had inklings that reminded me of char siu, but it was overly salty and didn't have much flavor to it at all. It was too salty that I didn't end up finishing it. My wife ordered the pork cheek stew. That was actually pretty good and the beer they used to braise it in gave it a slight sweetness. I did enjoy the white asparagus with ham though. The asparagus here in this region is bigger than the ones we get in the States. It was cooked in butter and tasted good. The ham really complemented it well. I would definitely order this again. If you do come here, I recommend getting a table downstairs by the river if you can. It's close to the restrooms and you get a view of the river. Though it was dirty looking, it still adds to the ambiance.
