La Belle Maraîchère

I was really hoping for a better dining experience at La Belle Maraîchère but I was disappointed. The foie gras was nice but they should have given us more bread and the fish should have come with a sauce.. a bit bland. Not bad but definitely not deserving of its 4.6 rating. The service was lacking too… a bit slow.

Tasty shrimp croquettes and fricassee de homard. Always good to eat at here.

Great ambience, great staff. The food is delicious. The owner is too kind. Recommendations👌👌 Good luck🙌☺️❤️

I randomly went in there and am glad I did. Service was better than any restaurants i went to in Brussels. I was dining alone but they made sure I was welcomed and comfortable. Fish soup was very tasty. I would definitely go back there to try out other dishes.

Delicious food, cooked with intent by the chef in the rules of classical French/Belgian cuisine. My bisque de homard was rich and creamy, cooked with a dash of armagnac. My main was ray fish, cooked in butter sauce with capers - great flavours there. Our group really enjoyed the food; I had a taste of the deserts from my companions. The ice souflé with Mabdarin liqueur was really great. Service is spot on and elegant. Their wine list is good, with lots of choice, mainly from France.

The attention to all of the details was remarkable. This place was wonderful, the atmosphere felt like we were dining at someone’s home. You could really tell the pride the owner and staff have for their restaurant. We did the tasting menu and the foie gras was the most remarkable for me. Beautifully balanced. I would definitely recommend a visit here.

The tasting menu was lovely. The Sole Breval was probably the best white fish dish I have ever had. The owner was kind and the staff attentive. Do not miss this place.

Great gastronomic experience! I've tried the gourmand menu and it was absolutely divine, and too big for me. It went very good with a glass of red wine... I hope the pictures say it better! Definitely I'll try it again!!

Many websites list this restaurant as being temporarily closed. It's not. It operates a reservations-only format in a classic setting with traditional service and very, very tight seating. Seemed like everyone aside from me was a local who greeted the staff fondly. The tasting menu was a steal at 82 euro or thereabout. Very good lobster, excellent sole.

Wow, we had a magnificent dinner here! The fish was magnificently prepared! If you like fish and want a special evening out, this is a good choice. It is quite small, so make a reservation. The menu is pricey and limited. Every dish we had was excellent! We met several different tables of locals who have been coming here for years.

Just what I was hoping for when I made the reservation. The service was very efficient and attentive. We went for a business dinner and were given the time and privacy we needed. From the mussels to the sole, the food was perfect. No complaints. One side note, we had a reservation for 8 people. They called early in the day and we confirmed. 1/2 of our party dropped out at the last minute. The owner was visibly upset as they had turned people away for other reservations. It's a small place, so I see his point.

We went here for dinner at the recommendation of our hotel concierge. My wife wanted her mussels in Brussels and La Belle did not disappoint. She opined that the mussels were the best ever. I had the grilled salmon with shallot butter. It was delish after melting 2 generous pats of butter on it, and how could that not taste amazing. The service was attentive. This is a small and intimate bistro with handsome art nouveau decor. The owner is there like an orchestra director with his son in the kitchen. Don't miss this predominantly seafood and fresh fish gem when in Brussels.

Certainly one of the top fish restaurant in Brussels, freshness, mastering of the cooking temperature and quality of the services. Video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urYFR8fW5Cg

On advice from friends, we went here for a Saturday night dinner. Just to spoil the end of this review: it was amazing and we'll clearly go again. So you enter this restaurant in a French brasserie type of atmosphere. We got to the upstairs room which is very cosy and gives you the impression of entering an old "chic" restaurant (in a very positive way :-) With regard to the service: efficient, but nothing special. The big boss whom we said goodbye at the end of the dinner is very friendly. With regard to the food: finally an excellent and delicious place where they don't try to give you a huge plate with a tiny piece of fish presented in a way that looks like a modern art piece. The presentation is simple. For example half a lobster on some salad leaves. Or fish terrine with a bit of salad in between. of fish soup or waterzooi simply so tasty. It's just perfect. All this combined with a nice bottke of wine. Not cheap, but definitely worth it. We'll clearly come back. Just for info: we booked, and it seems that it is mandatory.

The fillet of sole with mushrooms and tomatoes was absolutely delicious! Light and delicate with a fresh taste. The service was friendly and the ambiance was beautiful. A warm lovely place for a delicious meal!!

Great little restaurant. Had the Parma and Mellon appetizer and the sole with lobster sauce. Both dishes were divine! Nice place for a romantic yet casual dinner. Reservations recommended due to size of restaurant.
