Minerva Restaurant

This restaurant’s atmosphere sets up the stage! It’s more than just a dining room away from home. Their food took the spotlight as we become its audience. I enjoyed the soft music at the background and the huge flower arrangements as the main masterpiece of the decor, Mirneva ambience creates comfort, intimacy and romance. The staff are warm and friendly. *Check your coat or laptop/work bag at the entrance and dress casual smart or elegant.

Nice atmosphere, excellent service, good wines, food cooked and served to perfection, couldn't ask for more.

Excellent local-french restaurant, the smoked fillet was unique and delicious, as was the apple pancake. Fine dining with high quality food and nice wine list as well. Wish they had a slightly more expanded menu

This is the place you want to come, if you want everything perfect. The food, the wonderful staff, the atmosphere and the wine. Probably one if the best (non-)hidden pearls is Antwerp. This is going to be a regular 😀

Exceptional! Classic restaurant, French kitchen, stylish yet very comfortable service. The ambiance is very cosy and distinguished. Spatious place with lots of space between tables. The menu consists of old school dishes which are often finished at the table. Rather expensive.

Classic Belgian cuisine (similar to French but with regional accents), excellently prepared. High class but cosy environment and very professional service. Meats and fish are usually carved and arranged on plates inside the dining room (rather than in the kitchen) which amounts to a bit of a show by the waiters. May seem a bit expensive but you actually get a lot for your money.

I noticed hair in my dish and let the personal know. No excuse in return. Hope, that for future visitors this will not happen.

Somptuous address with superb food at the level of a Michelin star. Pro service, classy place. One of the bests in Antwerp !

Oh WOW! This place is amazing! It is set in an old Minerva (Belgian car brand begin 1900's), and the conversion of the garage is done very elegantly. The natural lighting comes down from the rooftop windows which is very pleasant. And this light sets the stage for a very well choreographed ballet of amazing waiters. These guys are old school, but the type that shows you that being a great waiter is a craft of its own. They have all the skills, cutting seasalted crusted bass, the venison when it's season etc... I will repeat the word I used before SKILL. Now the waiters are lucky because they put their skills to the service of a very refined and delicate cuisine. Not overly complex endless dish names, but simply great meats and fishes very well prepared. I had the business lunch, and from the "amuse bouche" to the "mignardises" it was flawless
