| - Stopped here this past weekend when my parents were in town for a visit. We've been to the pub next door several times, but were eager to try something new.
What a beautiful space inside! Loved the open, clean and modern feel, and of course it helps that everything is shiny and new : )
We were only in the mood to snack, so we ordered the cheese fondue, frites, and of course, beers.
The fondue was presented beautifully and everything was delicious. It fed 4 people without a problem, so at $25, it was a good value. The fries were done to perfection, and while I wasn't a fan of the frambozen "ketchup" (in quotes for a reason) the lemon tea aioli was very good.
There are a few beers offered only in the beer hall (not next door), which we were happy to try- the most delicious being the Minimus Dubbel. Careful, though...it packs a punch!
Overall a great experience. I can't wait to come back and try dinner. The prices are a little steep, but if the quality is as good as what we experienced, then i think it's fair.
The big disappointment of the visit was that they are still waiting on the LLBO and aren't allowed to serve their bierschnapps yet. I have a feeling that once that nectar starts flowing, they may earn their fifth star!
Tip: Due to the size, seating configuration, and ability to make a reservation, this would be a PERFECT place to come with a large group, which I find to be a rarity in the city! Also, patio not done yet, but it looks like it's going to be lovely!
