Yi Chan

Absolutely love this place! Yichan is without a doubt one of my favorite spots in Brussels. The xiaolongbao are a must, delicate, flavorful, and perfectly steamed. Their Peking duck is also incredibly well-executed: crispy skin, tender meat, and beautifully served. What truly sets Yichan apart is their cocktail experience. Their drinks are bold, creative, and show real mixology talent. I recently discovered their speakeasy, and I was blown away!! the way they reinvent cocktails is just next-level. You can really tell they put thought and heart into every detail. Huge shoutout to the team: always welcoming, professional, and on point especially Herbert, Audrey, Diane, who consistently deliver top-tier service. And of course, kudos to the owner, Yen, for creating such a unique and high-quality dining experience. Can’t wait to come back!

After a decade of looking for good dim sum in Brussels I discovered this restaurant and the food was soooo delicious- much better than dim sum in London. So fresh and tasty and the service was outstanding as well. It is a bit pricey though. Hence nothing for every week but we will be back for sure!

Pros: The duck is the star dish to get. Has great outdoor seating. Cons: our server had a very bad attitude and we got the distinct impression we were annoying her by being a patron at her establishment. The pho was flavorless as were the other dishes we ordered. The food is also is extremely overpriced.

STOP EVERYTHING — THIS PLACE IS A GEM! As a dim sum lover, I’ve finally found the go-to spot in Belgium. The flavors are insane — every bite threw me back to my Singaporean childhood. Honestly, any foodie would go wild trying to taste everything. Special mention for the crispy porc intestines. And the desserts? Simple but seriously clever and super indulgent. Big bonus: the wine list is well curated. I won’t spoil everything… there are some nice surprises to discover on your own. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and really know their stuff. Big coup de ❤️

After a week of European food while traveling we were ready for a break and this spot hit! The broth was delicious, noodles chewy, and the veggies were yum. The shrimp in my wontons tasted way better than I expected for the price! Very good service - warm but not annoyingly in your face. We wanted spicy so they said the dishes aren’t but they’d bring chilly which again after a week of pasta and steaks and salads was much appreciated. Also good drinks. Good vegetarian options so it’s a place everyone can enjoy.

Those pig shaped custard buns were just so good! Definitely worth a try. We tried soup dumplings, peking duck pancakes, steamed rice rolls and we liked everything we had. The atmosphere indoors is also amazing!

Excellent place in every way! We got different options of dumplings to share, some with pork and ginger, some glazed with pork, one made with egg paste with stuffing of pork and shrimp and one with fluffy delicious buns with pork. Every single one tasted different and was excellent. We also got the duck, it comes with pancakes and vegetables. It is moist on the inside and cripsy on the outside, super! We then topped it off with the dessert that was fluffy warm steamed buns with warm gooey custard. They were adorably shaped like piglets too! I must say the staff was beyond excellent, very helpful, welcoming, took their time to give recommendations and went beyond and above to help us!

The food we got her was ok, not the best but also not the worst. Some of the dishes that came out was actually cold like the pork wrapped in rice paper. The egg rolls was also drenched in liquid due to the wet lettuce and pickled veggies. The wrap to the picking duck was also not the correct wrapped used traditionally, instead they used dumpling wrapper. For the service and atmosphere it was ok.

- Beautiful place inside - Relaxing atmosphere - Good/ fast service - Clean tables - Tasty food, specially the Pho soup. I would recommend this place.

Great food, had Dim Sum and beef with lemon grass. Best part however were the cocktails Pascal mixed up for us. Highly recommend a stop while in Brussels

The dinner came before the appetizer and then the staff argued with me about how I ordered and how it would be done in China. Isn't this Belgium? I would not ever come here again.

Great place for Asian fusion food from pho to potstickers they have a diverse menu to quench your Asian food craving. Very near Grand Place and the Marriott.

Really good good, friendly staff and pricing as you would expect in the centre of Brussels. White wine (Sauvignon) was excellent. Would certainly recommend the dim sum sharing platter, but actually everything we had was excellent, tasted freshly cooked and delicious.

Perfectly prepared duck, great starters with pawns and white house wine with edelflower taste worth trying! All for reasonable price served beautifully in tiniest detail like Yasmin tea. Highly recommended:-)

What an amazing establishment! Everyone here is SO friendly and accommodating! Make sure you make a reservation because it was busy on a Thursday night! We were able to squeeze into some bar seats and they were the best seats in the house. Valentine and Pasquale were phenomenal at their job and you could tell they really loved what they were doing. We had some dim sum (har gow, shumai, & xiao long bap) and everything was delicious. We had the dry aged beef pho, bun bo hue, and the bun bo xa cha gio, FANTASTIC! The cocktails stole the show though. The old fashions are presented in a magnificent way! Must try!!!

With so many Vietnamese choices nearby, this is the one you want. Freshly made food with fresh ingredients. Excellent service. Upscale environment without upscale prices. Nice, well stocked bar if you want to enjoy one of their many cocktails. Good for dates or for tourists. Mostly locals partake, however. The lemongrass beef salad and chicken satay were both delicious. The salad was sweet and meat was tender. Excellent seasoning. The parsnip chips provided for free when we say a nice touch. The chicken satay was generously portioned and very juicy.

Was satisfied customer until last time. Staff definitely not baby-child friendly. Lady was nearly opposed by heating my baby's food, came back and told me how annoying it is to watch the food getting heated and told me heat it somewhere else?? Cocktails is also not before 7 (no directions on the menu). I came specifically at the opening for more convenience but seems that the staff wasn't thrilled to work. I'm def not coming back anymore.

Not sure I understand the hype about this place. Food is mediocre. Average at best. You'll find exactly the same food at a much cheaper price in the other restaurants on that street. Expect to pay 8€ per dim sum. Which is crazy expensive for mediocre food.

Wait what? Wow, this place saved me in Brussels! The food was incredible! The dim sum and potstickers were the freshest I have had anywhere else including NY and San Fran. But, the duck soup with a smoked penicillin was what took me by surprise. What a find!

Good dim sum (especially really tasty xiao long bao), average dishes. Decent cocktails but not extraordinay. Service overall very distant and unfriendly. Will not come back.

Great food, cocktails and service. A group of us went for a birthday celebration (restaurant takes bookings and allows cork fee if you bring your own bottle). The atmosphere is very fitting for special occasions. The food is a mix of different cuisines so plenty of choice for people with different tastes. Unfortunately it's very limiting for vegetarians though.

A great experience! A must visit when in the area. The aesthetics of the food matched the taste, which was wonderfully pleasing and exquisite. The service was great and the location made for an enjoyable evening of people watching. Will definitely return.

Amazing service. Ask for Diana, she works on Friday, Saturday, Sunday. The food is delicious as well as the service. It's super well located and you can enjoy bruxelles entraînements while eating.

Very nice restaurant, food was excellent and service was good. We had a soup and some dumplings , all well made and fresh
