I wanted some seafood for my first meal in Brussels and specifically walked over here after all the…read morereviews I read. This was a combo fish monger and restaurant in one. Large refrigerated cases faced the street with a variety of fresh fish, shellfish and premade seafood items. In the back the kitchen and food prep were visible and completed restaurant or to go orders were queued at its own counter (though staff would drop off at your table). Prices were quite reasonable comparing them to other restaurants in the more touristy streets. Also the cashier was very friendly with both locals and visitors. My favorite was the razor clams followed by the mussels and fish soup. Each was nicely seasoned and good size/ meaty for the shellfish. A separate bowl was also provided to hold all the empty shells. The WCs were located down a spiral staircase in the rear of the restaurant and was tiny. Overall a great start to my eating in Brussels.

My husband and I split the platter and holy moly there was a ton of fresh seafood! Highlights for…read moreme were the raw oysters and the warm shrimp. The seasoning on warm items was very flavorful. I skipped some of the cold items (snails, small shrimp) because they were either too hard to eat or I didn't like the taste. Surprisingly, the best thing we had was the lobster bisque. I don't think I'd get the platter again. The seafood was okay but I don't know that it was worth the price. The lobster we had had very little meat inside. Service was friendly but the restaurant was basically empty the whole time we were there. Hopefully it picked up once we left because this is a local spot a little off the beaten path of tourist restaurants.

wow, what is there to not like about this place…read more first, let me tell you their service is exceptional and very friendly to tourists which is hard to get sometimes in the area. we put our name down an hr before our requested time and they were very accommodating to save us the table. we originally came for the famous moules frites. found out it was all sold out for the night and we were very disappointed. we still decided to stay and try Georges4 due to the glowing reviews. thankfully, we were not let down twice! my bf and i ended up ordering just a bowl of fish soup and the waterzooi which is a specialty at Georges. i've had waterzooi previously in Boston and wouldn't say i was a fan.. but wow, Georges' waterzooi definitely changed my impression on the dish entirely! the bowl came with 3-4 types of fish fillet accompanied by other small sea critters like baby shrimps and musles. the dish delivered such a fragrant ocean breeze and the flavors were spot on! the fish were not overcooked and simply to perfection! the fish soup was very delicious too! a little pricey but really worth it to try! it will set your benchmark for fish soup very high for future bowls lol overall, i would recommend georges IV if you're in gent! the seafood is super fresh! tip for travelers: they offer free wifi!

In general, I dislike eating lobster in a restaurant as it is typically a snobby affair and I have yet to master eating and enjoying a lobster without having it all over me. But Den Beer is super informal, it is like you go to your grammy's house to eat. The owner is 78 years old, she is a real gem: fierce but welcoming. The food itself is why I keep on coming here and keep on wanting to come back: the lobster is just DELICIOUS. I've tried several styles over the years and all are finger licking good. The lobsters are always super juicy and cooked to perfection, it would be hard to pick my favorite style as all of them are the bomb but maybe the grilled flambe with whiskey has a slight edge in my book. I truly wish Gusje, the owner, a long life and good health as I will continue to come again and again!

A nice restaurant, conveniently located in the historic center…read more The price may be a touch high but I've found restaurant meals here to be expensive in general. The quality is rather good, though. We had a starter order of fried calamari. It was hot, tender, coated in crispy panko, and served with a sweet chili sauce that may have had a touch of curry. It was utterly delicious but the serving size was a bad joke. Four rings of calamari for 13€. I don't care how amazing it tasted. That price for that tiny a serving is unacceptable. The mains fared better. Contrary to some other comments, the server did not try to upsell us or get us to order more than we wanted. The mussels in garlic were drenched in a wonderful garlic bath and the serving was entirely reasonable for one person. Of course it comes with frites, which will be refilled by the server as often as requested. I don't care for mussels so I had some challenges with the menu. I settled on the shrimp croquettes with salad (and frites, cuz Belgium). Very well prepared and quite tasty, especially the salad dressing of all things, but the filling was much wetter than I prefer. Service was competent and professional, with the server even asking if we'd like the volume of the music turned down. Definitely worth it if you like mussels. Maybe not so much if mussels aren't your thing.

We actually came here to try the eel on green (apparently a known belgium dish). The only way I've…read morehad eel before was japanese bbq style (unagi don), so I was extremely intrigued as to what eel on green was. The sauce was like a pesto basil sauce, and the eel came with bone but was extremely soft and soaked in flavor. the green sauce was also perfect with the fries and complimentary bread. The bread was actually so soft and good that we asked for more! We also enjoyed the fish soup and the very fresh oysters!

There's indoor seating with the door open as well as outdoor seating. I tried the fried cod and it was probably the best fried cod I've ever had. It was very well prepared. It was fried perfectly with an amazing crisp. The sauce was perfect with the fish and it wasn't too overpowering. The calamari was also amazing. It also went really well with the sauce and was perfectly fried. I'm not one for grilled fish. But the Pollo was really good. It still had a lot of moisture, even though it was grilled. Delicious food
