Great value for money, but we were expecting better quality

Food was solid, service friendly enough. Decent spot if you&#39;re passing through the area. Nothing crazy but it did the job.

The room itself is what stuck with me&mdash;high ceilings, soft lighting, tables spaced far enough apart that you&rsquo;re not overhearing the next couple&rsquo;s conversation. That&rsquo;s rare in this city. The 4-course menu had a standout lobster ravioli, and the amarena ice cream was a nice tart finish. Service was polished, almost too formal for a Tuesday, but fine. Just wish the chairs were a bit softer for a long sit.

The Vesuvio half calzone was the highlight&mdash;crispy on the edges, molten inside. Watching the oven spin while eating made it feel more special than just another pizza place. Slightly chaotic at peak hours, but the food carried it. Probably the best slice I&#39;ve had in Belgium so far.

The mixed grill for two was decent&mdash;meat came off the grill juicy, though they went a bit heavy on the chicken and the salt. Free mini soup and sides were a nice touch, didn&#39;t expect that. Service was quick but a little abrupt. Prices are steep and they don&#39;t take Maestro, which caught me off guard. Place is small but clean, felt comfortable enough.

Came for the wine, honestly didn&rsquo;t expect much from the food. But those arrosticini were a proper surprise. Small plates are the way to go here, easy to share and just right for a chill evening. Place was a bit busy but that&rsquo;s fine. Would go back just for that lamb.

The pasta here is solid, no complaints about the taste. Portion size is decent for the price, which is what I always look for. Sat outside, it was quiet, which was a nice bonus. Not the cheapest spot in town, but you get what you pay for. I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m craving Italian again.

Food&#39;s been solid every time I&#39;ve been here. Staff chat away in Italian which gives the place a nice vibe. Wine prices are decent too, not crazy marked up. Portions are fine for what you pay. Nothing fancy but it does the job.

The chef&rsquo;s take on the classics is spot on. Loved how relaxed the room felt too &mdash; easy to just sit back with a glass of wine and not feel rushed.

The crispy duck with noodles was the standout. Black pepper beef had a good kick too. Portions are big, almost too big for one person. Place is tucked away by the cathedral, easy to miss. I&#39;d go back just for that duck.

The glass-roofed patio is such a nice spot when it&rsquo;s chilly out. Fish dishes are definitely the move here.

The vegan options were actually solid, not just a sad salad. Got the mushroom dish and it had real flavor. Prices felt fair for the portion.

The menu&rsquo;s huge and the prices are fair for what you get. Service was friendly but we waited over an hour for our food. Still, the portion made it worth it.

The ribs were spot on. Tender, smoky, that sauce tasted homemade. Fries were thin and crispy, exactly how I like them. Portion was massive, couldn&#39;t finish it even though I skipped lunch. That never happens to me. I&#39;d come back just for those ribs, no question.

Stoofvlees was solid, right on the square so you can&#39;t miss it. Service quick and friendly. Prices fair for what you get. Good spot if you&#39;re nearby.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. The complimentary Turkish bread and olives were a nice touch, honestly better than some starters I&#39;ve paid for. Service was efficient, no fuss. Place gets busy around noon, so come a bit earlier if you&#39;re in a hurry. Fair for the price.

Nice spot in the centre, decor is really pretty. Had a classic Belgian dish, tasted great but felt a bit pricey for what you get.

The garlic mussels were spot on. Fries came out crispy outside, fluffy inside. Can tell they don&#39;t mess around with cheap ingredients.

The grilled salmon was cooked just right, flaky and moist. Loved that they had a few lighter sides too, not just heavy carbs. My plate felt fresh and well-balanced. Service was okay, a bit slow between courses, but the quality of the ingredients really stood out. I&rsquo;d come back for that salmon again.

We booked the 7-course with wine pairings for a quiet night out. The flavors were well balanced, and the pours matched each dish nicely. Service stayed attentive but never hovered. Just wish the pacing between courses was a bit quicker, we were there for almost three hours. Still, a solid choice if you have time to spare.

The asparagus dishes here are really something. Chef Jos knows what he&#39;s doing with seasonal produce. We sat near the window, and the chairs were comfortable enough to linger over coffee after. Service was friendly without hovering. Just a solid, easy dinner. Maybe slightly pricey for what you get, but I left satisfied.

Service was genuinely friendly &mdash; the kind where you feel like they actually want you there. Food came out fresh and clearly made with care. I liked the vibe too, nothing fancy but comfortable enough to sit and take your time. Only thing is it got a bit busy later, but that&rsquo;s probably a good sign. Solid spot.
