Description

A sweeping view of the Lys River and the Broel Towers thanks to the establishment’s huge windows and riverside terrace awaits diners. A “rough and refined” (their words) décor provides the perfect foil to Matthias Speybrouck’s creativity, which shines through in recipes that star local veggies and fish from the North Sea, jazzed up with fresh acidic, even quirky (their words again) notes, while exotic ingredients are crafted into punchy sauces. Subtle cuisine throbbing with character.

Reviews frequently highlight high-quality, inventive dishes and excellent wine pairings curated by a knowledgeable sommelier. Service is generally described as professional and friendly, with a bold yet comfortable atmosphere, including popular outdoor seating. However, some guests found the menus overly complex or the pacing too fast. Negative feedback mentions issues such as overly salty food, service lapses, and high prices relative to portion sizes. While many praise the culinary skill and wine selection, others feel the experience does not always justify the cost.
