Excellent food and beer selection. I ate at the bar area which had plenty of seating on Saturday night after 8 pm. Unlimited mussels on Tuesdays (4 pm on).

This is one of my favorite restaurants in South OC. Amazing food, great drinks, good service (young food runners could use more training and some social skills), overall this place is a great place for date night or a night out with friends. I celebrated my birthday there tonight. We had the filet mignon, with a salad, boeuf bourgouignon with mashed potatoes, their delicious bread and butter, and the brussel sprouts appetizer. Everything is exquisitely seasoned, fresh and just amazing.

We had a fantastic time here. The food was incredible, the service was top notch. I wish I remembered our servers name because he was awesome and fun! I had mussels with some Belgium beers. The brussel sprouts were so good! This is on my list the next time we make it back to Cali.

Brussels feed us the best food I’ve had in a while. Their escargot are to die for. We also tried their Trout almondine and Salmon and they were both delicious. Great Belgian beer selection, great service. The place is not too big, so I’d recommend to make reservations I’m advance

Friends from San Clemente took us to Brussels Bistro, one of their favorite restaurants in town. We shared the garlic shrimp and Brussels sprouts appetizers, both delicious! All four of our entrees were equally excellent: flank steak, salmon, mussels, and trout almondine. We were seated in a corner table against the booth wall, and could easily converse. The service was quite good, and we never felt rushed.

As native Belgians we had to check out this place, and oooh my god we finally found a place where we can actually eat Bitterballen and lick our fingers on the amazing Chocolate Mousse. The decor and atmosphere were perfect and the food was delicious. Can’t wait to try something else from the menu.
