Stopped by for drinks and nachos&mdash;the cheese was properly toasted, and the salsa was fresh. Service didn&#39;t lag either.

Decent KFC for a quick bite with friends. Portions felt a bit small for the price, but the location is super central so can&#39;t complain too much.

Five-course veggie menu was beautifully plated, flavors really delicate. Just slow-paced, don&#39;t come if you&#39;re in a rush.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Steak was solid, pepper cream sauce did the job. Meat quality is definitely above average for this price range. Service was friendly, didn&#39;t have to wait long for the bill either. Good spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something decent without the fuss.

The b&eacute;arnaise really stood out &mdash; proper texture, fresh herbs chopped through it, not that gloopy stuff you get most places. Had it with the steak, worked a treat. Rest of the plate was decent too, nothing crazy but solid cooking. Place was a bit busy for my liking, but the food carried it.

We ordered five tapas for three people and that was honestly enough. The ribs were the highlight, really tender. Croquettes were good too. Service was friendly, they kept checking in without being annoying. Only thing, the place got a bit loud later in the evening. Still, a solid spot for a casual bite.

Stopped by for fajitas and honestly they hit the spot. Portion was decent for the price, though not gonna lie, it&rsquo;s more than you&rsquo;d pay back in the States. Still, when you&rsquo;re craving Mexican in Belgium, this does the job. Probably won&rsquo;t be a regular thing for me, but I&rsquo;d come back if the mood strikes.

The bruschetta with sardines really stood out&mdash;such a simple thing but done well. I had the vongole too, which was solid. Place was busy but we got a nice quiet table by the window, so that worked out fine. Service was friendly enough, not rushed. A decent spot if you want an easy Italian dinner without any fuss.

Solid burgers and the ribs were properly juicy. Malbec from Argentina went way better with the food than I expected for this part of town. Place feels like a real upgrade from before.

Reasonable prices and a big menu of Belgian classics. Staff were friendly and we got our food quick. Solid spot for a filling lunch.

Stopped by for a kriek and honestly the selection is solid. Had the framboise, it was fresh and not too sweet. Place gets a bit loud later in the evening though. Fine if you just want a quiet beer earlier.

Service was really good &mdash; our waiter went out of his way to be nice to the kids, even helped calm down the little one after she tripped. Location is perfect if you&rsquo;re grabbing a quick bite before catching a train. Food came out fast, which we appreciated. Just wish the seating wasn&rsquo;t so cramped, but fine for a quick stop.

The pizzas here are solid and the price is right&mdash;that&rsquo;s the main thing. I had a decent bottle of red with mine, nothing fancy, but it did the job. Staff actually knew their menu when I asked for a pairing suggestion. Place gets busy around eight, so don&rsquo;t expect a quiet dinner. Fine for what it is though.

The veggie burger was properly good, nice smoky flavour. Good beer list too. Place had a decent buzz, felt very local.

The lunch menu here really impressed me &mdash; dessert was the highlight. We were a group of 10+ and service stayed quick. Nice spot for a midday break in Brussels.

The back garden is such a nice spot, and their beer list goes perfectly with the fresh food. Service slowed down a bit when it got busy, but the staff stayed friendly the whole time.

The terrace view of the church is nice. Got the Big Ben burger, pretty solid. Staff handled the crowd well.

Stopped by for a horse steak near Brussels. Portion was huge, meat cooked properly. Place itself is nothing fancy, service is straight to the point. But for what you pay, it&rsquo;s solid. Left full, no complaints.
