While the register states No Cards one of the servers told the table next to mine not worry when they didn't have enough euros. Only a drink menu was provided and the dishes being served that day were handwritten on moveable boards or posted on the wall. I had on my list a couple to try but finally went with the Belgian carbonades à la biere which was beef stew with mashed potatoes in a dark gravy made with beer. The plate was quite generous and much appreciated since I devoured it. I enjoyed the creaminess of the potatoes swirled with gravy but the meat could've been a tad bit more tender. Service was good. I think everyone on the floor stopped by my table for one reason or the other. Ambiance was casual and looked like many people were taking their time over their meals. When finished you need head to the register to settle the tab. I paid in cash. Worth a return visit.

This was a great experience. Nice small place that feels authentically Belgian. Great ambience and…read morefantastic service. In reviewing the menu, everything sounded fantastic. My wife settled on the beef stew with stoemp, I had the confit of beef chuck with a side of fries. They were both very tasty, the servings were perfect for normal appetites and the meal came with bread, and salad as well. We really enjoyed it, in retrospect I wish we had ordered a beef dish and something else, both dishes we had were excellent (the confit of beef practically fell apart with my fork) but the tastes were similar. Oh well, maybe next time. Highly recommended.

I got lucky and only had to wait about 10 minutes as I was a eating solo, and the other people in queue were 4+. Sat down, grabbed a Cantillon on draft, and ordered. The cheese board was fantastic. The mussells were wonderful, and the homemade sausage was unfortunately just okay. Could have done without it as it was dry and overcooked, but very much enjoyed my meal here. Would suggest eating here easily.

Last time we were here they had at least five different starters with asparagus. I eventually took the ravioles des cèpes et truffes avec foie gras (14€), it was delicious. It's just a very good 'brasserie' at a location where you would not expect it, better than most typical places in the city centre. Oh and be sure to have a drink later on at the pub le saint Charles.

There were 4-6 people in front of us. It took us about an hour waiting. I hate to keep harping on the wait time but setting expectations is key.
