"Ate here on a Tuesday evening in July with 2 colleagues. Pleasant looking restaurant, nice decoration, but service was very slow by the single waitress who took a long time to take our order despite the fact that there were only 4 other tables occupied. Menu is not extensive, maybe 6 starters, and 8 or so main course choices. No daily specials available while we were there. We all chose the maroilles croquettes to start - these were nicely presented, but overall were disappointing in that the taste was simply not there, maroilles is a strong smelling and strongly flavoured cheese - could have been edam in there and I would not have known. Bland.For mains I chose the carbonnade, a traditional Flemish dish I have eaten many times before, served with fries and a large salad, portion size of the carbonnade was on the small side. The beef itself was OK but was not melt in the mouth as a good carbonnade should be, the sauce was too sweet for me, don't know what beer was in it, but something darker and less sweet was needed. Nothing wrong with the dish per se, but other carbonnades I have eaten elsewhere have been so much better. Our French colleagues steak was good, but again nothing special, while my other colleague's maroilles burger was under cooked for his taste - his fault in asking for medium and not well done. Deserts were good. A disappointing visit, blandness seeming to be the order of the day. I would not chose to return."
