My partner + I recently rented an apartment nearby and were excited to try this restaurant. At 7pm…read morewe were the first customers to arrive so we were fortune to meet the owners, Vincent + Ilse, and briefly hear their story. What a wonderful couple! The indoor dining space is small + cozy with an elegant yet comfortable vibe thanks to the friendly greeting and fun artwork. The menu is small yet well-curated with something for every palate - seafood, meat, chicken, etc. After ordering mocktails, Vincent surprised us with a taste of vegetable soup (shockingly savory!) followed by our escargot starter. My partner + I love escargot and Vincent's was no exception. We were off to a great start! For entrees we ordered the Dover sole and duck. The sole included a simple, delicious butter lettuce salad with seasoned roasted potatoes, and the duck included potato croquettes and a warm cabbage + pancetta salad (which I was particularly happy to gobble down for lunch the next day!). All items were perfectly prepared, well seasoned, and truly delicious! Afterward my partner + I shared a pear dessert which was essentially a baked (or maybe steamed?) whole pear dipped in chocolate and topped with vanilla ice cream and whipped topping. So simple yet savory and 100% satisfying. Then Vincent surprised us again with a final sampling of his yummy panna cotta! In hindsight, we are so fortunate our visit occurred on a slow winter weeknight, a time in which Vincent + Ilse are able to be fully involved greeting and servicing customers themselves - although I have a feeling they try their best to provide the same personal touch even in the height of summer. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them a bit more each time they checked in on us. Thank you, Vincent + Ilse! You turned a typical night out into a very memorable evening. We will absolutely be back + look forward to seeing you both again soon!

Be sure to make a reservation if you are planning on dining at Vincent's during the weekends or during the busy Summer months. Enjoy!

This year, I decided to approach Michelin dining differently, focusing on the chef's vision rather than portion size, and Va et Vient delivered on every level. The standout here is the staff. The service was seamless and attentive, which is impressive given how many people were involved throughout the evening. The nine-course menu focused on the North Sea, with each dish beautifully presented and clearly tied to the theme. Each dish was delicious. My standout dishes were the rabbit, scallop, and haddock, as well as the blue cheese berry tartlet. As non-drinkers, we truly appreciated the sommelier creating a custom mocktail just for us. If you're celebrating something special or looking for a memorable night out in Kortrijk, this restaurant is a true gem. Reservations highly recommended. And yes, I left feeling wonderfully full.

I came across this nice little mexican resto while visiting seeing some of the city of Kotrijk…read morepassing the time. The owner is very friendly and informed us this was one of the only mexican restaurants in Flanders--lucky us to have stumbled upon it for dinner! We had vegetarian nachos for an appetizer--honestly, this wasn't too impressive as it is nearly the same as what my boyfriend's father makes at home. As a main course, I ordered a trio of a taco, burrito and enchilada, normally offered in meat, but the owner was more than willing to make a vegetarian version with beans for me! This was better than the nachos, in my opinion and quite filling. I loved how the decoration of the resto--it reminded me of most of the places you can find in the US! Price as also reasonable at 20eur per person. We visited on a Saturday evening, which normally (according to the owner) should be full of people but due to construction the street was empty! I didn't love it but it satisfied my mexican craving!

I was quite taken with this place. Located in the village centre of Deerlijk near my colleague's…read morehome, it is quite a charming spot. Featuring continental cuisine with a Belgian and French twist, the steaks are the highlight. The moderate-sized dining room offered a standard but pleasant decor. It was certainly conducive to an enjoyable dinner as there was a lovely ambiance that emanated from a relaxed atmosphere. It was an owner-operated establishment, which always presents the best conditions for above-average service. The service in this case was indeed excellent. The menu offered some very tempting choices. My colleague told me that their specialty is the Filet Pur. Hence, that was the choice for mains for both of us. He started with a trio of croquettes, which he found to be agreeable. I had the lobster bisque, which I thought was well done with a good, hearty flavor. The steaks, both done with a peppercorn sauce, were the highlights of our meals. I am not a heavy red meat consumer, but I have to say that I enjoyed this serving immensely, and would recommend it to anyone who has a partiality to steak. Their wine selection was decent. The Malbec we had to accompany the meal was a little unusual as it was a bit fruitier with more of an oaken overtone than I normally have had. But it was good nonetheless. The fare was not cheap. My colleague picked up the bill, so I did not see the final price tag. I'd have to think that it approached €150 with the aperitifs, the appetizer, mains, the bottle of wine and a finishing coffee. But I'd still say it was worth it. This place offers a great chance for a lovely night out or a terrific spot for a business dinner.
