Belga Cafe

"Head over to Barracks Row for a Christmas Eve and Day dinner at this Belgian mainstay. Beginning at 4 p.m. both nights, expect oysters Rockefeller (half oysters, spinach cream, oyster sauce gratinee) and Maine lobster salad (warm capelli d’angelo pasta, lobster, lemon mosto oil, petite fleur, yuzu gel, caviar)." - Vinciane Ngomsi

"A Barracks Row pioneer, Belga Cafe attracts crowds for pots of mussels and frites. During warmer months, head to the rooftop and hit up the Betsy. Named after chef Bart Vandaele’s favorite pet chicken, the bar specializes in gin drinks." - Tim Ebner, Missy Frederick, Tierney Plumb

"Chef Bart Vandaele’s package satisfies diners of all sizes, whether you’re hoping to impress with a whole turkey (serves 8-10), modest stuffed turkey breast (serves 4-6), or a roasted chicken for two. Whatever chosen, it comes with five sides, stuffing, gravy, and cranberry jam. Place orders by November 20 for Thanksgiving Day pickup between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m." - Vinciane Ngomsi

"Barrack Row’s resident Belgian restaurant from chef Bart Vandaele features a plate of grilled hanger steak, Belgian frites, bearnaise sauce, and field greens salad for $49 during brunch on the weekends. There’s also an option to add any eggs." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Eater Staff
