About this restaurant
In an old Brussels estaminet, we welcome you with a large choice of traditional Belgian specialties and more than 40 different Belgian beers. To start with, the famous homemade Ostend grey shrimp croquettes or the grilled blood sausage brochettes with two jams will make your mouth water. For the main course, the Belgian cheese steak with Cantillon geuze and the mussels with chicory and white beer will enchant you. To end on a high note, we suggest the Chimay crème brûlée or the house cream flambéed with Calvados and vanilla ice cream with butter. Let yourself be tempted by a little old jenever (Witteke). For reservations on the terrace, please contact the restaurant.

Nous vivons à La Haye - Pays-Bas et c'était notre troisième visite depuis l'automne 2024 (1er déjeuner, puis 2x dîner). Cette fois encore, l'accueil et le service étaient professionnels et hospitaliers. Ajoutez à cela la qualité des plats et l'ambiance intérieure et La Villette est, pour nous, un incontournable lorsque nous sommes à Bruxelles.

Party of 5 sat outside and the service was good. Two had the vol au vent which was very tasty, filling and not soggy at all. One had the cod steak and it was also very good. Another had asparagus dish, which she enjoyed. We ordered a homemade upside down apple pie with ice cream to share and it disappeared too. Beer was fresh, The restrooms were bad, though: the light in the ladies room didn't work and the room did not seem clean. The path to the restroom was tiny and cluttered as well.
