What a wonderful dining experience! My husband and I had a long and delightfully delicious lunch at DOOR73. And it really felt like we were taken on a culinary journey. Each dish was so distinct - unique in flavor and/or presentation. Particular favorites were the Confit Duck (one of the best I’ve ever had) and the Wagyu A5 Striploin (expensive but very close to the same splendid taste I had in Japan last year!). If you’re a dessert lover, like myself, I highly recommend budgeting space for their offerings here. The La Dame Blanche and Crème Brûlée were both wholly unique in their presentation but were also incredibly delectable. And last but not least, the Greek Mountain Tea - with both fresh and wild picked mint leaves this was my favorite tea I had on my two week trip in Belgium. If you want to relax, indulge, and enjoy an incredible meal, make a reservation now - you won’t regret it!

As someone who has been obsessed with food for over 2 decades. I can tell you it is really worth to book a table at door 73. The staff knows everything about the food in detail and the way they communicate is highly appreciated by the guests. All the dishes that we had eaten were more than great. This sure is a restaurant for people who love food or have diversified flavour palate. It’s important to know that all the main dishes need to be shared which makes the price affordable. If you are amazed by all the food and don’t know what to pick, just take the menu to follow the chef because he knows very well what he is doing. I would have expected a little bit more of the interior but this is just personal preference. All in all definitely worth a visit the flavours are remarkable.

Been coming here for years. Even if you believe it couldn’t get any better, Eric and his team just keep on raising the bar.
Impecable service from start to finish. Although it doesn’t have a star, it certainly deserves one.
