    Classic Poutine $13
    Tina L.

    This was such a good place for an intimate girls outing or date night! I came here after work with a friend and everything was delicious! We shared the poutine and it was warm, crispy and gooey! My Chicken Milanese $23 was delicious!!! The salad mixture and chicken was a bit oily but the crisp ratio to salad mixture was amazing. The waitress was nice and attentive and even packed our leftovers up. I would love to come back to try the muscles! 10/10

    Frittata of the Day.  arugula goat cheese and mushrooms yummy.

    Ok. My daughter took me for my birthday brunch. Ordered a Bloody Mary actually ok, but the star was the food. I ordered the Mussels with spicy tomato and Italian sausage, I almost licked the plate. My daughter had the frittata of the day which had goat cheese and arugula. Check out the pictures of the food. Definitely a stop by must. Heads up we showed up when they opened at 11 and we were not the first in. It was full in 10 minutes come early or be prepared to wait.

    Mezze plate
    Cynthia F.

    Great menu for vegans, vegetarians and others. Loved the mezze plate, especially the sweet red pepper walnut sauce. My husband and I shared it and couldn't finish it. It's big enough for more than 2 people to share. Loved the crisp cucumber and the halved grape tomatoes. The husband liked the raw red pepper slices. The grilled peach salad was fine, but I wasn't hungry after the mezze plate.

    Eggs benedict with crab cake

    Went back here for dinner on a Saturday night in late summer. Beautiful place to sit outside for the evening and their outdoor seating has grown during Covid. Quiet street, quick and friendly service. We started off with the buffalo cauliflower bites appetizer, which was excellent! The cauliflower was definitely fully fried but only thinly breaded. Came with a strong and spicy sauce, blue cheese crumbles, and a small bed of greens. My wife and our friend both got the bowl of mussels. I think this is the restaurant's signature dish and it did not disappoint! The bowl is large and the fries (if you choose to get them alongside) are thin and crispy. The cool thing is that you can get a few different sauces for the mussels. My wife got the classic white wine sauce and our friend got a spicier and slightly heavier red sauce with chorizo. I am not as adventurous and just stuck with the Bruges Buger, which was also great. Thick, topped with bacon, pickles, and a mayo type sauce, so it had lots of flavor. Came with a nice side salad of romaine and candied walnuts. Only small downside is that it does not come with fries (you have to get this as a stand-alone side).

    Smoked salmon eggs Benedict and Cajun potatoes

    I'm sad to say I was disappointed in our most recent trip to Park Bruges. I have eaten dinner there many times, and always get the mussels. They really are the best in the city. I love their double fried french fries too...especially dipped in the white wine and garlic sauce from the mussels! Yum! My mom and I decided to go for lunch on Saturday around 2 pm. When we got there it was still their brunch menu. I hadn't even thought about that, but always see the brunch photos on Instagram. I wanted to get the mussels, but decided I should try their brunch since I was finally there on a Saturday afternoon. I ordered the brunch prix fixe menu which included an entree, side, and drink. I ordered the smoked salmon eggs benedict, cajun potatoes, and a glass of sparkling rose. Our waiter was friendly, but seemed spaced out. He was very excited to tell us about the specials. My mom ordered an apple and bleu salad with salmon with dressing on the side. Our waiter asked if I wanted champagne that came with the brunch special, but I wanted the sparkling rose. I think there was an upcharge for it. Our food came out looking good! I was surprised that my eggs benedict was on 2 half pieces of Italian bread instead of an English muffin. I just have looked closer on the menu. It came with some lightly dressed lettuce on the side. I took a bite and realized it was very lightly dressed. It tasted like they sprayed olive oil spray on it. I thought it needed dressing. The poached eggs looked awesome. I cut into the yolk and tried a bite, only for it to be ice cold. I'm not one to ever complain or send a dish back, but cold eggs are not edible. The toast seemed like it had been sitting for a while, because it was also cold and hard. I told our waiter and he apologized and took my dish. I asked for a fork and ketchup so I could start on my potatoes, but I had to ask him a second time since he forgot. My mom's salad came out with dressing on it even though she asked for it on the side. She ate while I waited for my food. I think they just put my plate in the microwave, because it came out exactly as I had left it with one bite eaten out. The poached eggs were then hard on the outside. It was just all around nor what I expected. I thought they were going to remake the dish. I still ate it because we were so hungry at this point, but I definitely would not go back for brunch. The sparkling rose and potatoes were both good. I will stick with the mussels from now on!

    Came here again for lunch with a friend of mind and had a great time. Food was amazing drinks were amazing. Just had to say that. My favorite neighborhood spot.

    This is listed as a 'Small Plate' - pulled pork poutine  whose deliciousness is exceeded only by its size! Fantastic!
    Arthur R.

    We enjoyed ourselves supremely at Park Bruges last night: the pulled pork poutine and the maple bourbon glazed salmon vying with one another for best dishes we've eaten since moving to Pittsburgh; the service made poetic by servers who take their service so very much to heart; the ambiance that of a neighborhood place - a great, good place where meeting one another & talking vie with great food & drink. Yep, we've found a home at Park Bruges - a place where friendliness holds the menu for us while we enjoy ourselves selecting dish after delectable dish...

    Cheese plate, baguette, and Ommegang
    Nicole W.

    My 1st 'post-pandemic' stop in was this week. I was very happy with everything. They always have a nice beer selection. This was one of the first places in Pittsburgh where I was able to find good Belgian beers. I had the cheese plate, which I always love. The cheese selection is always great. They have traditional choices and also add something with just the right amount of funk. I will say the plating was a bit more thrown together than it has been in the past - and no one explained what the cheeses were. They were still delicious. My husband had the green curry mussels and they were delicious as always. My daughter and I shared the roasted chicken. It was very yummy but not as salty as I remember (which maybe is a good thing). Overall, I'm so glad I came back and will continue to have regular dinners here.

    moules frites in green curry

    This was one of the stranger meals we've had because it started so well. The appetizers were exceptional and everything we were historically used to at going to park/point Bruges for over 5 years. Then the entrees came out... I'm always hesitant to give a below 4* rating because I know it's life/death for restaurants, but the second half of our meal was very bad. --- The moules frites in green curry is the money dish. That's why you go to Park Bruges. Broth was rich with a kick, there were a ton of perfectly cooked mussels, and the fries/baguette were there to sop up the rest of the broth. Hands down best mussels I've had in town. The mezze board, which I wasn't super excited for, was a really pleasant surprise. The hummus and muhammara / walnut dips were freshly made, really flavorful and the muhammara in particular was unique. I'm addition to the pita crisps, olives and feta there was basically a side salad in the middle with a vinegarette. It was a huge portion - great for sharing. We finished the apps fully expecting to have amazing entrees that we'd probably have to bring home. Then they came out... The chicken sandwich was burnt. I'm not sure what happened here.. Left in the fryer too long? Under the heat lamp too long? Both? The bun crumbled from over toasting when it probably shouldn't have been toasted in the first place. Beyond that, the chicken was bland and the sauce was lost in the million breadcrumbs from taking a bite. You can see most of this on the picture. The tofu banh mi: I was skeptical in the beginning, but I love tofu and love banh mi sandwiches so I thought I'd give it a shot. The baguette was not fresh, which is a bad start for any sandwich, but especially a banh mi. My advice, buy them fresh from la Gourmandine, raise the price if you need to and don't look back. The tofu did not appear to be marinated and was fried instead, which means that the sauce really had to be on point, but it wasn't and there just wasn't nearly enough. The picked veggies were fine, but not enough to save the flavor. It honestly felt like something you would make at home only to realize you forgot 2-3 critical ingredients. A lot of people will say "it's tofu, what did you expect?", but it's one of my favorite foods - even as a carnivore. Both side salads were fine. My wife and I could really only took a bite out of each sandwich and immediately washed down the bland dryness with some beer before letting the server take the rest. We were so happy with the appetizers I think the server just kind of assumed we liked the entrees as well and didn't ask how the food was. I should have brought it up, but at that point the meal was done and we both just wanted to get out of there and saved ourselves the awkward interaction. --- We don't live in the city, but we do go into it multiple times a month for dinner. With all the added costs of baby sitters, Ubers, etc. we really want the meals to be as close to perfect as possible. I was honestly shocked a restaurant of this quality would even serve something like these sandwiches. I'd say we would come back for the mussels, because they really are that good, but point/park are too far from other things we typically do in the city that I'm not sure it's worth a special Uber ride for us when there are more consistent restaurants elsewhere in the city. It would have been 1* if not for the apps because the sandwiches ranged from too bland to care to inedible. If you're going here, stick to the the mussels.

I was last at Point Brugge in April 2022, when the grub and warm welcome were well-worth the price. I'm not sure what has happened since then, but if my most recent experience is anything to go by, SERIOUS changes have to be undertaken at this once gem of Point Breeze for it to justify the equally serious price increases that have gone by since then. The food: BLAND and prepared without care for the customer. To start off, my companion and I both got the "soup du jour." It was tomato and onion cream. Completely mediocre and far too sweet. I could've bought a prepared soup at Trader Joe's of the same quality. For our mains, I got a $36 (!) salmon with fried veggies and lentils. The fish was OK (it's hard to wreck good salmon), but the veggies were positively DRIPPING in oil and the lentils were salted to all hell. I could not finish the latter. My companion ordered a $16 vegetable sandwich and specifically requested no red onions. Guess what? The sandwich and its side salad were chock-full of red onion slices. So much for customer service. The restaurant: GROSS. The remnants of mussels and other food items were LITTERED all over the floor of the "top" area of the restaurant. The walls are full of cracks; the paint is peeling; and where the drywall meets the floorboard, AVERT your gaze! Giant, gaping holes pepper the entire lower part of the wall, as if positively begging for a rodent infestation. How is this up to code? The service: UNFRIENDLY. I think we were served by the manager. He had sort of a strange attitude and cadence, and only asked us anything about the food BEFORE we had started eating the soups. Consider asking us after we've finished something? I think he was mad that I had only ordered a water. Sorry! Alcohol is bad for you, and I for one wasn't going to slurp down a sugary "mocktail" next to all those oily mushrooms. Next stop? UPMC Presby. Apart from him, the staff was underdressed and loud (although, for what it's worth, a bit friendlier). However, I prefer to know if I'm interacting with a paid employee or a freight train driver who has just gotten off a 16-hour-shift driving on the CSX mailine. I get it: nobody is expecting you to wear a tuxedo in 2026. But let's at least try to outdress the most casual of customers, no? Considering Point Brugge was once a place I took people from out-of-town to show off the East End, this is a sad, sad fall from grace. I will NOT be going back, and, as long as they don't get their act together, neither should you. Not in this economy. $36 oily azz mushrooms...
