Lys d'Or

We enjoyed a delightful evening at Lys d’Or. the chef takes person care to great and chat w each table multiple times over the course of the evening and is attentive to each dish. Highly recommended ! See photos - which tell the full delightful story.

Exceptional! Dishes are elegant and well executed. The service was attentive and welcoming. The quality of the produce was evident in every dish. This is world class dining at very reasonable prices

When you visit Ghent, Lys d’Or is worth visiting. I had such lovely time. The food was also really delicious.

Amazing restaurant - up there with the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. Cannot understand how it doesn’t have a Michelin star yet but sure that will change soon as up there with the best meals we’ve had anywhere. We had the 5 course tasting menu and every course (as well as the 4 appetisers) was delicious, beautifully cooked and some great flavour combinations - the scallop cerviche with sea elk and celeriac risotto with mushroom and truffle being particular highlights. Also a big shout out to the friendly and knowledgeable staff, from the front of house manager who recommended a great wine for us, through to the member of the kitchen staff who was having to work front of house for the first time and was brilliant - super friendly and kind, to the gentleman who extracted and served us a vintage wine from a giant pipette, and the chef who appeared at the end to ask how everything was. Truly exceptional and hope to go back for another special occasion.

Nice contemporary setting, good service (compliments to the maitre for the Turbot), very good cooking by Chef Ignace Wattenbergh who respects the classic Escoffier and Larousse kitchen but adds a contemporary touch to it.

Top place for a nice exuberant dinner! Excellent service with great advice for wine and help with the 4, 5 or 6 course menu. We took 5 courses and I had substitutions for the fish (which I don't like). It was delicious food. Also the ambiance kept us at the dining table until closing time!

We went here to celebrate a special occasion and I'm very glad we did so. The food was outstanding, the wines by the sommelier were very well chosen and the whole staff was just exceptionally friendly. I've never felt more invited in a restaurant than this place. This was an evening to remember.

Had a great evening out with friends in a very nice setting. The quality of the food was extraordinary and I loved that the dishes had a very no nonsense approach. Bare in mind that you can't get the dinner menu on any other day than Saturday. After dinner, chef Ignace came to our table to see if everything was perfect and we had a nice chat. We liked the wine so much, we're going to pick up a bottle from their cellar. Love the fact that they're very approachable.
