We went there to hang out during lunch. Food was okay. they didn't offer us ketchup or sauces with the burgers. The burger was okay. Beer is good.

Came here after reading the great reviews.

We had just arrived to Paris from Amsterdam and only travelled through Brussels by train without stopping, so were keen to try the mussels.

I ordered the mussels (moules) in white wine and my husband had a serve of the ones with blue cheese sauce and we shared a pot of chips (frites).

Mussels were really good and the staff were very attentive.  We sat out on the street to soak in the Parisian atmosphere, which probably wasn't wise as our food cooled down very quickly (our fault, not a criticism of the restaurant).

Highly recommend if you are craving Mussels from Brussels.

Good food, in large portions. The menu offers a good variety of dishes if you want to try French cuisine.
We had the tartar steak with fries, choucroute and mussels with a bucket of fries. Everything was yummy.

My wife and I are big fans of Brussels mussels, so we were on the lookout for a restaurant that specialized in them. We were lucky to find this gem of a place. Not only did we get to savor some really good mussels, but the restaurant also offered a fantastic selection of Belgian beer.

What made the experience even more special was the Brussels-like atmosphere they've created. It felt like a little piece of Belgium right where we were. The variety of draft beer available was impressive – it complemented the mussels perfectly and added to the authentic feel of our dining experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed the combination of great food, a wide selection of beers, and the cozy, Brussels-inspired setting. It's a must-visit for anyone who loves mussels and wants to enjoy a bit of Belgian's beer .
