"DIM Dining is bathed in a calm, cosy vibe, created by a compelling blend of Japanese purity and Western luxury. The best seats are at the counter, which commands a view of the chefs at work. In keeping with the decor, the latter craft an intelligent cocktail of oriental delicacy with gutsy Gallic overtones. Asian cuisine is the playground of inventive chef Simon van Dun and his team, who playfully and unexpectedly work with authentic local ingredients throbbing in rugged tastes and aromas. The diner’s curiosity is constantly tickled as each mouthful seeks to surprise and astound. For example, duck cooked whole and continually basted in wagyu fat results in medium rare meat loaded in big-boned flavours. This is then flanked by a subtle gravy of duck juices and dark strong ale from the OWA Brussels brewery, without forgetting fresh, crisp side vegetables. Renowned sommelier and sake master, Jonas Kellens, rolls out his know-how by pairing the above dish with a 1984 All Koji sake in a match made in heaven! A whirlwind of culinary delight that leaves no one indifferent!" - Michelin Inspector

We had a fantastic dining experience at Dim. Reservations can be tricky, but visiting in August, when it’s typically quieter, worked to our advantage. The 10-course tasting menu is highly recommended—each dish was beautifully presented and full of flavour. We also opted for the tea pairing, which was a lovely addition. The service was exceptional throughout.

We went to Dim Dining to celebrate our six-year anniversary and had high expectations — and they were completely met. During the dinner, we actually talked about how we’ve been to quite a few fine dining restaurants over the years, but Dim Dining really stood out. We were a bit unsure at first about getting the sake pairing, since we didn’t know anything about sake. In the end, we thought: why not, let’s trust the experts. And that turned out to be a great decision. The female sake sommelier was not only super friendly and enthusiastic, but also incredibly passionate. She really took us on a journey through the world of sake and answered all our questions with joy. It didn’t just feel like drinks with dinner — it added an entirely new dimension to the experience. And then the food: every single dish was perfectly balanced. Everything was flavorful, refined, and creative. Not a single course felt out of place. On top of the 10-course menu, we also got a variety of small bites beforehand and extra desserts afterward — all of it excellent. It’s definitely not a cheap night out, that’s for sure. But it truly felt like money well spent. Everything here just works: the atmosphere, the service, the flavors. Honestly, we don’t understand why this place doesn’t have a second Michelin star.

Absolutely recommended and a great restaurant to celebrate your most important events. Every dish is perfect, delicious, unusual, wine list and sake list - thanks to the sommelier for every recommendation. We are delighted and glad that we chose your restaurant. Thanks to the whole team!

Dining at DIM is taking a journey through Japanese cuisine. Filled with pure yuzu and miso flavours. The plates are pieces of art with delicate flavour mixes. Special shout-out to the lamb, never ate it better in my life. Combine it with delicious wines or surprise yourself with matching sake or even tea! Enjoy

Our visit to DIM was truly phenomenal. We went for the 9-course tasting menu with sake pairing. The service is attentive without being intrusive, they show genuine enthusiasm about the menu and offer an interesting context to go with the food and wine they present. Special mention for Jonas, the sake master, who really sold each Sake pairing fantastically. All amuse-bouches (3) and tasting dishes (9) were beautifully presented and had unique flavors and pairings, heavily leaning on Japanese cuisine. The sake pairing is something we aren't used to, but would absolutely recommend going for. All sakes were perfectly paired with the dishes - some of them were real gems. Since we're not big drinkers, we opted for sharing the pairing, which was perfect for us. All in all, this is easily one of the best dining experiences we've had. We will be back!

Really great service. The team was knowledgeable but also knew when a joke was appropriate. We had a lot of fun. The dishes were interesting and fairly unique. It’s a restaurant for real foodies, maybe not ideal if it’s your first time dining at a Michelin started place.

Worth the hype. Antwerp next star restaurant. Lovely place and atmosphete in former "te kook" buliding. Adequate and experienced Staff and award winning Young chef. Starting with body temparature Sushi with superb fish. Have you ever tasted purple Japanse mint? Combined with Coquilles Sashimi... try it here. As with Japanse food : dessert are not world shocking but refined. Sommelier was kind enough to advise us neutral American wine to keep tastes open.
