Description

The vibrant, bustling Matongé district is home to an equally buzzy neighbourhood eatery: Le Tournant. People drop in for a glass of ‘natural’ wine (trust the sommelier – he knows his job!) and to dig into unfussy, nostalgic dishes that whisk us back to our grandma’s kitchen, together with a sprinkling of creative notes. Examples include leeks vinaigrette with a miso cream and a marinade of pleurote mushrooms, or fork-tender lamb navarin stew, indulgently paired with mashed potato and seasonal veggies. Every dish is an authentic feast of flavour!

Review summary

Le Tournant, located in central Brussels, offers a quiet and warm atmosphere appreciated by many diners. The cuisine focuses on Franco-Belgian dishes highlighting local products, with frequent praise for deliciousness and elegant presentation. Specific items like foie gras, chocolate mousse, and steak tartare are mentioned, though experiences vary. Service from staff such as Denis and Kevin is often described as friendly and efficient. However, some reviews criticize the food for lacking inspiration or being tasteless, with isolated reports of issues like warm steak tartare. Value perceptions are divided; while some find it good for business meals, others consider it expensive, noting limited children's options and dissatisfaction with extra charges. Overall, it suits those seeking traditional flavors and comfort, though consistency may depend on specific dishes and service encounters.
