  We ate downstairs (though if full the cafe upstairs has the same kitchen/mendu) in a warm, brick-lined room with an open kitchen in the back staffed by chubby, happy Belgian cooks eager to make sure there was no shortage of wine in the delicious sauces. They offer stereotypical Belgian fare, and the mussels with white wine sauce didn't disappoint. Also, as a Dutchman who loves fries I must say the accompanying fries were incredible. Service can seem cold to the non-Belgian, but they're just as efficient as any other Belgian restaurant. A great place to go especially if you only have a limited time in Brussels and want the true Belgian experience. I thoroughly disagree with that bad review that was placed here on Fodors.

  The rear of the restaurant smelt very unpleasantly of the dirty toilets which no doubt perfumed the uncovered chocolate cake that was sitting outside the door. Service abrupt and food nothing special. Try somewhere else.
