ComoTapas Bruselas - from 2002 to August 2024

Came here with a group of 6 adults on Sunday evening. Out of 6 there was one vegan. Crowded space, open kitchen, very fun concept but not much variety in dishes. Also lack in veggie/vegan dishes. The dishes were very oily & salty. There was only one chef & one server at the moment and it felt very understaffed. Also the toilet missed paper…. I had expected to be catered with more drinks & more dishes to go around. I find it quite expensive for the food & drinks you (don’t) get. Expect the cost of €40-€42 per person The server was strict but very friendly and accommodating eventually. It takes a while to get served. Definetely some points to improve but it’s a very fun concept with much potential! 💚

It was alright. I’ve been to Comocomo before and had a better experience. Perhaps because this time was on a Monday evening, most plates were repetitive, mostly deep fried things that they just threw in frozen in the deep fryer and served. Sweets were good and the quality of the bottomless wine was good as well. Amazing staff, helpful and cheerful. I’d try to come back on a weekend and hope that was the difference in food quality.

Great place! The People working there are super friendly. It was my GF birthday, the whole restaurant sang for her! Super simple thing to do but thé effect of doing something nice for someone is amazing! Unfortunately we did not try thé whole menu. Sometimes repetitive food comes out of the kitchen. Busy place and understaffed when we went. (Halloween). The waitor came at the end to ask us if we wanted to try something we didnt eat from the conveyor belt but we were so full! Will come again!

Excellent place to drink and eat Spanish tapas. Plates with the food offered are passed on a conveyor belt, each plate has a color that differentiates the type of food (meat, fish, vegetarian, etc.). I really enjoyed the experience and the service was excellent. Recommended to book a table. I recommend getting to know 100%

One of my favourite restaurants in Brussels. You can taste Spanish tapas ans Basque pinchos. Staff is always friendly and helpful. If you are super hungry there are menu offers with unlimited tapas/pinchos. It's better to reserve place in advance.

Food was great , fresh and with variety , staff super friendly and we went with our 4 year old and she had so much fun!

Best tapas in Town ever! I live in Brussels and come to como tapas very often, here becomes one of my food routine. Delicious and verity choices, they change menu randomly for bring new dishes to customers. 布市最好吃的Tapas! Besides that, my favorite dessert is “GOXUA” from north Spain, but como make it more sweet especially for Belgium market, they know Belgium like sweet, so smart decision ! And works very well! So, I am highly recommend this Tapas, especially good for friends and family, setting and chatting together waiting for different tapas. MORE FUN and CURIOUS, because you don’t know what will come !! That’s the key point!! In the end, i don’t understand why some people give such low reviews just because they cannot order or expensive?? Pls go somewhere else in city center Belgium for tapas and SEE, if anywhere is cheap than como and décilious! The answer is NO! And if you see here cannot order, well ! Go other places for normal tapas style, COMO TAPAS is special BECAUSE you can sit in front of convoyer belt and waiting!!! I’m surprised someone is stupid to know it before but come anyway and give bad reviews. People should give more respect instead of judging all the time.

The place is fun and in a very good location. The actual food was the worst tapas I ever had. Very dissapointing, altough depends what you’re used to (I only had tapas in Spain except one other place in bxl). The food is cold since it’s on the conveyer, you can ask something from the kitchen directly, but that was not impressing either. The place itself is cute, very pleasant customer service!! And quite affordable prices. Points for that at least :)

Le secret de tout restaurant "à tapis roulant" est toujours le même : 1) Ne visitez que les jours de grande affluence. 2) Arrivez dans les 30 minutes suivant l'ouverture. 3) Asseyez-vous au bar ou aussi près que possible du chef. Cela signifie que mon expérience était des assiettes qui passaient moins de 10 secondes sur le convoyeur. Le personnel n'était qu'un hôte et le chef. Le chef travaillait juste en face du bar et devait même laver sa propre vaisselle pendant le service. Un cinquième des assiettes étaient directement du congélateur à la friteuse. De plus, je ne recommanderais aucune des assiettes de légumes. Ils étaient tous sur le convoyeur et n'ont pas été remplacés pendant au moins 2 heures. C'est une idée amusante, mais la nourriture n'est pas si bonne. Amusant quand même. 2022 09 12.

IT'S CONVEYOR-BELT TAPAS. That was all I wanted to say but they're making me type more.

Conveyor belt tapas. Brilliant...! Best seat in the house is the portion of the belt right at the kitchen.

Total assholes. We'd booked in advance with a Bongo Gift package. We arrived about 20 minutes late due to abysmal traffic entering Brussels (1,5 hours for an 18km drive). As we arrived, the boss (or maitre or whatever) said that because we were late our table had already been given away and we could come back at the end of the shift, about three hours later. Naturally, we tried to negotiate multiple times but were rebuffed most brutally and after five minutes asked to leave. We managed to get in in another, truly great, Brussels restaurant so the evening worked out just fine karmically. Imagine our surprise a few weeks later when we were informed that these unfriendly, hostile assholes had the gall to cash in on the Bongo they had cancelled themselves! They were looking forward to having the cake and eating it too (which you really can't). Obviously, even given our horrible first experience, this struck us as downright evil behaviour and so we naturally protested with Bongo. Those people took up the issue in a professional way, but the narcissistic, sociopath gangsters running the ComoComo refused to give in. In the end Bongo decided to issue another package in order to pay the other restaurant their just dues. All in all, the lesson in the tale is this: if you have appalling moral character, no integrity whatsoever and lack any intention of customer satisfaction, it does not matter whether your food is good or bad, you're getting the one star. May my words long haunt you and ultimately lead to the just demise of your unscrupulous business ethics.

The concept of tapas conveyor belt is original and the tapas are quite good. However the service is not the best: we were a group of 8 and it became complicated to pay the bill. We had to wait quite long until the bill is sorted out. Important to find a seat as close as possible to the bar to make sure you get hold of the best tapas

comocomo serves PINTXOS which is a style of tapas of the Basque Country. Pintxos tapas is typically eaten with your hands. The other fun thing about comocomo is that the dishes are served on a conveyer belt just like some sushi places in Japan. The price of the dish varies by the plate color. If you can get there early take a seat to the right of where the chef makes food. It's one of the best entertaining spots in the house!

This Spanish pintxos restaurant in the heart of Brussels is actually decent if you're looking for something different from the traditional and hearty Brussels fare. The concept is similar to that of Yo Sushi! where food goes round on a conveyor belt and you are charged based on the number of plates you eat. The only difference here is that plates are not priced individually but you are charged by the number you eat, so three plates cost 8.50 euros, six plates 14 euros and nine plates cost 19 euros. Additional pintxos are charged at 2 euros. Each plate is coloured to make it easier to identify which ones are veggie, meat, cheese, fish and of course sweet dishes. There were the usual Spanish pintxos i.e. tortilla, Argentinean beef brochettes, patatas bravas etc. but also some French influenced dishes including duck fillet, frogs legs and chestnut profiteroles. Some of the dishes were overly salted, but as my sis and I were seated in front of the chefs we carefully chose the less salted versions. I'd recommend this place, particularly if you are group of more than ten people as they have group specials starting from 26 euros.

I like the idea, in theory, but conveyor belt tapas really depend on the execution. We had to go get our own drinks, and a few times we ordered specific things from the menu that we didn't receive. The meal ended up being fairly expensive in the end as well. Given all that, it wasn't bad. The portions are good (for tapas) and the flavour was there. It's the right kind of place to go if you want to meet up with some friends and talk and drink and eat, without eating being the focus of your evening. And that's A-OK in my book.

amazing place. Original idea of mixing vasque pintxos in a sushi style bar. p Everything is delicious and they got god spanish beers and wine. The people are also great. If you are in Brussels, don´t miss it. And don´t forget to make a reservation

The concept of this restaurant is original, a conveyor belt goes through the restaurant and transports the different tapas to the customer. You take whatever appeals to you and you pay for the number of plates you have taken. The colour of the plate indicates the category of the food which allows you to find out what the ingredients of the dish are. (can be retrieved written on the wall or in a booklet) The concept has some major drawbacks: *when you're at the end of the line, there's a high risk you'll always get the stuff no-one wants *some of the plates do several trips through the restaurant which means that there's a high probability that if you take such a plate at that point, it has either become cold or not fresh (soggy bread for example) Next to that the food is just not great. It's all very basic and above all very greasy. On the upside, our waitress was very nice and professional and did her very best to make sure we had a pleasant evening nonetheless.

comocomo is the first restaurant that fusioned the sushi system with Pintxos or tapas typical from the Basque Country. Fun, different, what can I say, this is a must try.

The only thing good thing about this place is their selection of Spanish wines. That's it. - Service was more than sub-par. My partner & I were there on a Friday night (usually a busy night for restaurants) but that didn't stop management from under-staffing the front & back of the house, resulting in slow service overall (from the wait staff and food coming out of the kitchen) - Portions were teeeeny--I know it's tapas, but the size of these were a joke--a very bad joke! - And flavor of the food was just... meh! - Overall, not a very good value at all--especially if you are a vegetarian (I am). - To boot, they overcharged us on the bill! I suggest going only if you want to experience the novelty of selecting your food off a conveyor belt. Be forewarned, though: you will likely leave still a bit hungry or with a lot less $ in your wallet. I will definitely NOT be going back.

This is my favourite tapas restaurant in Belgium by far. I love the concept with the sort of 'assembly line'. The food is high-quality and their sangria's are delightful (watch out though; they seem innocent, but they are rather on the strong side.)

Good to eat a few tapas (served per plate on a rolling belt, like sushi) with friends before a night out. Don't go here for a 3h dining experience. Personal only a fan of 1/2 of the menu, but you may always ask the kitchen for your favorite tapas. Best seat to eat is at the kitchen. Best seat to have a conversation with moren then 4 friends is in the front in the middle (only face to face seats). Reservation recommended on Fridays and Saturdays.

Such a good concept and very sweet staff. I can highly recommend to buy the all you can eat for 2 hours!

I really really REALLY wanted this place to be amazing... but sadly I can't sing as many praises as I want to about it. One star for ease of making reservations: as a fan of technology, I always appreciate the capability of making online reservations. Another star for the host/server: he was very nice and was able to suggest a pretty tasty beer for the hubs. The sangria that I had was pretty darn delicious also but it was not enough to raise this place up to a 3-star review. The food was ok, I didn't really expect for some gourmet meal to happen at a conveyer belt spot so as mentioned, it was decent. What did this place in for me was the fact that the tapas/pintxos came few and far in between. It was a Saturday night with a packed house and there are only two chefs in the kitchen... to give you an idea, there was about 2-3 tapas released out on the belt every five minutes... to a restaurant that had approximately 30+ people... Needless to say, to echo the sentiments of what other Yelpers have mentioned, you're S.O.L'd if you sat far away from the kitchen when it comes to getting a plate. It should not matter where in the restaurant you sit... service should be the same, after all, you are a paying customer. And yes, we tried to ask for the dishes we wanted to try as suggested by other reviewers before the restaurant got too busy but... I think the server was so busy, he forgot. I think this place has so much potential but really lacks the man power in the kitchen to keep up with the demand. It's obvious that the thought of conveyer belt tapas/pintxos is a cool/fun dining experience, and that people want to go check it out and experience it. So, to end this review, just a small suggestion to the owner of Comocomo: please staff your kitchen enough to meet the demand and I'm pretty sure there will be more happy customers who stay rather than those who leave because they got tired of waiting for a plate to come along. That or take it a step further and do iPad on demand ordering like most conveyer belt sushi spots...

A sushi conveyor belt serving up Pintxos/Tapas it was good fun.

Nice concept, but the food is generally bad. You can cook the same thing at home but then better.

Everything about this place was average. The place is not very cosy: bright lights and a lot of kids. The food goes through the entire restaurant on a little conveyor belt and you take whatever you want. Unfortunately, when you have a seat at the end of the belt, there is not a lot of choice left and you end up waiting quite a while for food. The food itself was also nothing extraordinary. Sure, it's not bad, but there are plenty of other -better- restaurants in area so that I will not be coming back.

good idea this conveyor belt (like sushi bar) mixed with tapas, but if you are looking at something really Spanish (good food not expensive) you should choose somewhere else.

Thank god we had a voucher. Not worth the price, both food and service. No further comment.

Always a nice and cosy experience! Have been to this restaurant 4 times, and only one time was a little disappointing due to the seats we got at the end of the conveyor belt. Very friendly staff and always a good laugh with the people sitting next to us :-)
