Delicious food in a old place, held by a very nice woman. Service is quick, efficient. Good selection of beers. Can't say enought about the bœuf bourguignon and the burger of ossobucco. Prices are fair and really worth it to walk a bit further from the center. Go have a try and support little restaurants like this, you won't make a mistake.

We were looking for a nice restaurant away from the busy areas, and I came across this place on Google. The name immediately caught my attention, and after seeing the great reviews, I told my husband we had to try it. I’m so glad we did! The owner is such a lovely lady, and the food was absolutely delicious—you can really tell it’s made with quality ingredients. The portions are generous too! My husband and I kept talking about how happy we were to have discovered this cozy spot that serves such flavorful dishes. We’re always on the lookout for great restaurants, and this one truly exceeded our expectations. My husband keeps reminding me to leave a review because he feels this restaurant really deserves the recognition. We couldn’t agree more—highly recommended!

We had dinner at this restaurant during our stay in Ghent. Both the fish and spaghetti were delicious. My husband and I were saying that the spaghetti tasted just as good as in Italy, and it turned out the owner is Italian! It made sense. We had a wonderful time. We'll definitely come back again next time we're in Ghent.
