About this restaurant
Welcome to the Elfde Gebod! The Eleventh Commandment (Het Elfde Gebod) is a unique restaurant-café in the old town of Antwerp, Belgium. It has a spectacular interior decked with angels, saints, pulpits and several deliciously sacrilegious visual jokes. We serve local Belgian cuisine and a big variety of famous beers. Beers include the local Koninck, Trappiste Westmalle dubbel, St. Bernardus Abt 12 and much more. The restaurant-café is located next to the The famous Cathedral of our Lady (Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekathedraal). The ancient religious statues are in style with the Kathedral right across the street and the place has a long history. It is a must-see place when visiting Antwerp and it is mentioned in many tourist guides. It is the place everyone remembers form Antwerp. "The Eleventh Commandment" – this is to eat well, drink a lot of tasty beer and have lots of fun. So in general: YOU SHALL ENJOY!

Leckere Muscheln, tolle Biersorten und ein freundlicher schneller Service - nicht ganz preiswert - aber in Anbetracht der zentralen Lage geht das in Ordnung

Mostly it would be the food. I’m fine with the price but I feel if I spend €26 on a dish and you serve my fries as shared fries with the person I’m with that’s just not alright. It happened with no warning either. Just seems cheap. Secondly I had reservations in advance they stuck us in a pretty crumby section. I feel they could have hooked us up with a decent table considering I saw one guy at a 4 top only drinking beer. The food this time around wasn’t great. I brought a visitor here because I’ve enjoyed it in the past. Basically it was a bit of a let down. And to add insult to injury, they served our beer in the wrong glass. It’s just kind of a let down. Don’t think my expectations are too high they charge enough that I think I’m allowed to expect some level of like decent service and quality. Just felt kind of cheated of a good experience and decent meal. I got tough meat, beer in the wrong glass and a crumby table. You have to hold your breath in the bathroom. Don’t know if I’ll go back.

Gezellig interieur en topsfeer met muzikale band. Vlotte bediening (alhoewel we liever pas ons gerecht hadden gekregen na onze aperitief) en lekker eten. Wij komen zeker terug.

Heel vriendelijke bediening, leuke sfeer. We zaten in een klein hoekje een beetje weggestopt van restaurant waardoor we niet echt een mooi zicht hadden op het leuke kader. Eten is relatief duur voor de kwaliteit maar als toerist wel een leuke plaatst om iets te eten.
