Delicious and fresh dishes are served in this Seafood oriented, Michelin listed restaurant located at the heart of Brussels. The limited space makes a warm ambience, although lights could be dimmed. Service in a rush but efficient.
Fresh, beautiful food. Friendly, authentic service
oh wow, this place is amazingI had the best beef stroganoff I've ever hadit's pricey but well worth it
My partner and I walked into de l’Ogenblik tonight excited for a relaxing evening with amazing seafood dishes. Instead we walked into the door to an extremely rude waiter who threw two menus at us. When we requested if they had an English menu he said “yes” (mind you we already viewed their menu online in English), but refused to provide us with one. He sat us at a table in cramped space, either under a bar (literally the bar kept hitting my head) or next to the waiters stairway to the second floor portion of the restaurant. When my partner placed his coat in the middle of the booth, the waiter literally yelled at him to move it. He rudely walked away and when a second waiter walked over to us, we asked if they had a menu in English (recall the one previously said yes and we viewed one online). He told us “no and simply walked away”. We both were so astounded by the absolutely rude service that at that moment we walked out, and went around the corner to Taverne du Passage and had one of the best meals during our trip! I’m not certain how this restaurant got a Michelin mention, but never EVER would I EVER go here. Incredibly rude service and the worst atmosphere ever!
Lousy service, full of tourists getting conned! I waited 20 mins to order and 50 mins for a filet steak to arrive. Nice steak but same as any ordinary place but double the price. €9 small glass of red wine. Now waiting 20 mins for the bill and waiter is just taking the piss because I had the temerity to ask for the bill twice. Will I ever get out of here?
Nice looking place with a good atmosphere but they got my order wrong and made it clear - with a frustrating Belgo shrug - that it was my own fault. I wouldn't have minded so much if any form of apology was offered, but no - it was definitely on me. And to top it all, what I did get - the mixed fish dish at EUR 28 - was far from fresh and overly greasy. Nice wine (Vaqueryas) by the half botttle. Order the meat.
French Belgian restaurant in the mall, tightly packed tables, delicious baby lamb, foie, berries w mango, and creme brûlée
My favourite restaurant in Brussels. Belgian bistro-style interior and food. Service is very efficient if somewhat grumpy on occasion. Not cheap but still great value given the excellent quality throughout. Starters are pretty big and good for sharing. Book in advance and ask for a table on the ground floor.
This place is among my favorite restaurants in Brussels, which is saying a lot. The atmosphere is incredibly typical of Brussels. The food is superb, I am yet to have a disappointing dish here. The staff are knowledgeable and will steer you to the best choices. The drinks list also has great options in every category. A real gem.
Nice old, classic place with character. Good ambience and service. Food just not tasty.
