5 Real "Brasserie du Nord" with a wide selection of local beers on tap and all the classic dishes. From carbonnade to potjevleesch and Welsh. The steaks are excellent as well. The staff is friendly and efficient. Great location too. I'll definitely go back soon!
5 Nice place with great staff (a few them speak English as well). We ordered some standard fare like the Carbonnade Flamande (flemish stew) with the Maroilles cheese sauce, a local Northern France cheese. It was well made, not too heavy and goes well with a red wine. Other dishes included the potjevleesch which we found is actually served cold. And the QuinQuin (pronounced KenKen) burger which was filling and super cheesy. Finally ordered a Dame Blanche (vanilla + chocolate) for dessert.
5 Decent atmosphere and the food and service were good, will return
5 The finest steak tartare I’ve ever had, that Worcester sauce accompaniment was next level. Had the pepper and mushroom sauce with the fries, which were also done to perfection. The staff were oh so lovely also. Highly recommend. 10/10
5 We went here for drinks with a friend, the service was very nice, very friendly, very quick but there was no pressure. We came back later for dessert, which was also very good. The speculous tiramisu was very good. And the prices are extremely reasonable.
5 very friendly staff, tasty food, great choice of different beers, I really loved the mixed plate with different kinds of cheese and other colt cuts, it was soo good I can recommend without hesitation
