Description

Nestled in the heart of Ghent's Patershol neighbourhood, Nonam has an authentic and cosy ambience with a touch of vintage charm. After stretching out in one of the luxurious guestrooms, pop into the the restaurant, where the set menu presents a playful take on fusion cuisine. The chef transforms his grandmother's rice pudding recipe, for instance, with exciting textures of apricot and a koji-based ice cream. Or he boldly combines beetroot, blue cheese and umeboshi. The selection of fine wines, by the bottle and by the glass, has plenty of gems in store.

Review summary

Nonam in Ghent offers modern international cuisine with generally praised food quality, featuring refined tastes and detailed presentation. However, portion sizes are frequently criticized as too small, leaving some diners hungry, and occasional service lapses include strict seating times and minor culinary details like meat tenderness. Service is largely described as impeccable and multilingual, though some find the initial wait or rigid timing inconvenient. The atmosphere is cozy and stylish, characterized by a modern black-and-white theme within a boutique hotel setting. Value perception is mixed; lunch is often seen as good value, while dinner is considered overpriced relative to portion size. It suits those prioritizing aesthetic dining and flavor complexity over quantity.

Ideal for diners seeking refined aesthetics and modern ambiance over large portions, with lunch recommended for better value.
