Nice tables and a large blackboard on the wall with their daily suggestions. The restaurant is authentic - not pretentious - a fact that made me feel at ease. The service is friendly but not impeccable: the table was not really ready when I sat down and the waitress did not bother to wipe off the table. I reached over to another table to get my napkin and a little bowl for the olive pits. Not a big deal but still no extra point for that. The food: unfortunately the bread was nothing special. The olives served were nice. I chose the parpadelle a la carbonara to test the kitchen. It's like the margarita pizza - the chef shows his talent on a simple dish. Unfortunately there was cream involved...is there anything else to say? The pasta was fine and al gente and the ingredients were good, but this was not a traditional carbonara. I enjoyed the glace a la lait d'amandes for desert.

I cannot say too much about the place since we just stopped in for a coffee as we were heading…read morethrough Waterloo, to Brussels and were in need of a cup of java. The brasserie is quite spacious with many tables and what looked to be a fully stocked bar. It was pretty empty though since we were there pre-dinner time and post-lunch time. We ordered a coffee and then thought about having dessert, something sweet. There were only two sweets on the menu. My wife thought about a mousse au chocolat but when she saw that it cost 7.50 Euro, though it best to just stick to the coffee. Yes, it seemed an expensive place (or perhaps we're cheap). Coffee was 3 Euros a cup but came with a little chocolate. Then again, most coffees in Belgium do, or at least a cookie.

The fish selection is fantastic and the appetizers are excellent. My favorite feature is the smoking room where you can take coffee and cigars after a great meal. A regular visit on my trips back to Brussels. Back for a light lunch and cigar on Dec 31, 2017. Fantastic experience again. I had the TarTar of salmon - perfectly seasoned and paired with a small salad. My brother had the special of the day: bacon burger with foie gras that was just ridiculous Waiter was exceptional as well, great service.

We were seated right away and brought menus and the recommendations. The restaurant was busy with locals. We were spoken to (of course) in French and while I muddled through, they were kind enough to speak English with us. My guy ordered a glass of white Burgundy and I ordered a Kir cassis for aperitifs. The Kir cassis was way too warm, but the Burgundy was delicious. We both ordered the set menu of appetizer/main/dessert. I especially liked my sea bream (see picture) and we both enjoyed our cream of asparagus soup. I would order off the main menu next time as I saw some good looking meals being served around us, notably some dishes with in-season white asparagus. Service was leisurely paced but not overly slow. The atmosphere was charming--a local brasserie buzzing with people enjoying a leisurely Sunday lunch. I would definitely return to this restaurant.

My kids ordered the most fun hot chocolate they've ever had. It came as a giant cup of steamed milk to which they added whole chunks of chocolate, plus it came with a small ginger biscuit! It took awhile to cool down, but this is necessary for the chocolate to melt properly. (If your kids are young, be careful.) We also bought a jar of the heavenly jam to eat with a fresh baguette the next day. (They are closed Mondays and Tuesdays) We will go back because it was such a lovely experience!
