Tuna tartare and escargot are must-haves for appetizers! Was hoping the eggs benedict would be bigger and the croquettes madame would be open-face. The wellington burger features a foie gras mousse but the watercress and mushrooms overwhelm the flavor. Dessert martinis are perfect at the end

Des, it’s wonderful knowing you enjoyed your visit! Your words mean so much to our crew. Hope to see you back soon!
The mussels in spicy sauce were a standout dish, served steaming hot in a rich, aromatic broth. The sauce had a strong garlic and chili base with a slow-building heat that didn’t overwhelm the natural sweetness of the mussels. Each bite was tender and fresh, with just enough spice to keep things exciting without masking the seafood flavor. The broth itself was the highlight—perfect for dipping bread or spooning up after the mussels were gone. Overall, it was a satisfying, well-balanced dish that delivers both comfort and a kick of heat.

Cool Place. Def go here for the mussels. Wish it came with pasta instead of fries. Im not a Belgium beer guy and would rather have some hazy ipa.

Amazing from start to finish.
Started off with their special, the garlic herbed bone marrow and bacon and the sweet potato gnocchi. The bone marrow was INCREDIBLE. I wish it wasn't just a special but a main stay because I'd definitely order that each and every visit. It was that good. I was apprehensive about the gnocchi since im not a big gnocchi fan in general but so many people have sung of it's praises so I decided to try it. Easily one of the best dishes I've had this year. The flavors were so perfectly balanced. It taste of the toasted sweet potato gnocchi was something I didn't expect but was pleasantly surprised.
Kept it more simple for entrees because the starters were so rich and indulgent. We had the filet mignon and the steak sandwich. Both perfectly portioned and delicious.
Ended with the stroopwafel cheesecake, it wasn't too sweet which was nice.
The service was great, I love how the manger was so hands on and checking in with tables. There was an older couple nearby celebrating their anniversary and the manager came over and surprised them with a mini bottle of champagne and congratulated them. That really was so thoughtful! Definitely top tier care and service.

I recently visited this restaurant and had a mixed but overall decent experience. The shrimp was genuinely delicious—well-seasoned, fresh, and cooked just right, which was definitely a highlight of the meal. Unfortunately, the lobster was a bit disappointing as it seemed overcooked, making it slightly tough and less enjoyable than expected. The atmosphere itself was quite nice in terms of design and vibe, but the noise level was noticeably high, which made it harder to fully relax and enjoy the dining experience. I also think the tables were placed a bit too close to each other; a little more spacing would have made a big difference in comfort. Despite these drawbacks, the overall ambiance and some of the food quality make this a place worth giving another try.

We were at a baby shower in the back of the restaurant. Great food and service. The acoustics are a bit loud. Hard to hold a conversation if it's packed. Which it was.

Good food, had to sit at the bar. But overall good. They’re known for their mussel pots, and the one we had was quite good.

Food was good and service was friendly. Bus boys asked me if they could clear my plate three times while I was still eating. Food came out while we were still eating appetizers. Never felt this rushed before. We were in and out in less than an hour. Won’t be coming back.
