I've visited this restaurant several times, and I'm always very pleased with the great food (I absolutely love the spaghetti carbonara!). Located next to the harbour, good service, nice scenery, average prices.

We visited this restaurant for coffee on Boxing Day as it was one of only a few places open in Ostend. It is situated opposite the main train station and the harbour. The atmosphere was really friendly and welcoming and the service was prompt, polite, and cheerful. The coffee was served on a little tray with complimentary biscuits,-a nice touch.... More

Saturday afternoon in december i visited this place. It was busy but not crowded. The pasta was really good. If anything it was to much. The service was excellent, the waiter was nice and agreed to all our requests.

We last visited the bistro in 2008, on Tuesday evening it was just as good as I remembered. Great food, generous portions, friendly, swift and efficient service and a tremendous atmosphere. I recommend it to anyone visiting Ostende.

It is a fun place to go with friends, food is ok, nice size portions and presented in oversized bowls which I find appealing. Interior spacious, open, yet cozy, old world feel...This is a local hang out and so as a tourist you get a good feel of the Belgian culture.
