The garden terrace is lovely, though we waited a while for a table on a busy Saturday. The seafood pizza was worth it though&mdash;good crust, plenty of fresh shrimp. I had a nice glass of white wine with it, which paired well. Service was friendly but a bit stretched. Would come back for the terrace alone.

Good food and a solid beer list without crazy prices. Small place so it fills up fast, but that&#39;s fine. Staff were friendly too.

Stopped here for a quick breakfast before my train and honestly it was perfect for that. Got a coffee and a croissant, nothing fancy, but it hit the spot. Staff were super friendly and didn&#39;t keep me waiting. Location really is the best part though, right at the station. Would pop in again if I&#39;m passing through. 😊

Oysters and Wagyu carpaccio were spot on, but the Holstein steak really stole it for me. Owner checked in on us a couple times, nice touch. Crepes Suzette for dessert, proper way to end.

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

The food quality is impressive, especially the mezze platter, which is a great way to start the meal. The lamb stew was tender and flavorful.

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.

The pizza was solid, and the place itself is pretty cozy. I liked the low lighting and the way the tables aren&#39;t crammed together, so you can actually have a conversation without shouting. The student deal is decent if you&#39;re nearby. Just wish they&#39;d open the window a bit, got a little stuffy after a while.

Been coming here on and off for years. Daily menu changes, always something different. Got the veggie dish of the day, portion was decent for the price. Not the cheapest place in Leuven but you can tell the ingredients are fresh. Solid choice if you want a proper meal without meat.

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.

Nice spot on the terrace by the abbey ponds. Food&#39;s okay, standard brasserie stuff. Bit pricey for what you get, but the setting makes up for it.

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.

Fresh spot with a solid veggie selection. Terrace was quiet enough to actually enjoy the meal. Food came out decently quick but I can see it getting busy later.

Hands down the best Portuguese restaurant in Leuven. The owners are the real deal&mdash;genuine Portuguese folks who know their food.

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.

Came here for lunch and honestly the Turkish tea at the end made it. Service was quick, friendly, no fuss. Portion sizes felt right for the price. Place was busy but not chaotic. Would sit outside again if the weather holds.

Decent spot for a quick bite. Portion sizes were fair for what you pay, and the food hit the spot. Nothing fancy, but I left full without breaking the bank.
