Le Chef et Moi

Super small menu, not a lot of choice. Only one person that was running around so there was no service at all. The food wasnt great for what we have paid

Unfortunately, I would classify it as a fine-dining wannabe. Tasty/Decent for a mediocre scenario, but now I am judging for what it is trying to portray. Service: The service quality is low, sloppy, mistakes were made from start to finish. Cutlery placement, cutlery replacement etiquette (straight on the table, no napkin underneath and no napkin replacement, given the fact that the current ones are small/not fabric/easy to get dirty entirely). Logistics are terrible, as were not able to eat comfortably. Plates were huge and heated at high temperatures, although for some dishes it was unnecessary (it feels fancy, so we do it for all hot dishes). We just had to eat in weird positions in order to avoid the huge hot plates on the small table. Menu presentation by the host lacked details, garnish/sides were not presented and we ended up receiving the main product, but with a side that changed it completely. If we knew it had those sides, we wouldn’t have ordered it. Food: Decent-Good - Carpacio, although followed a classic recipe, had no taste. Bland, a little acidity and a touch of seasoning would have made a huge difference. Lemon, balsamic vinegar, vinaigrette, whatever your choice. - Meat/Fish: Dishes with different qualities, some had its main product perfectly cooked, while the other ones were slightly overcooked and more chewy. Good initiative, a lot of things can be easily improved and thus, the quality boosted to 4/5 with minimal effort. But at the moment, for our taste it was not close to what we were expecting.

Had one of the best cod fish I have ever had in my life, it was falling apart in my mouth and extremely juicy. The atmosphere was incredible, the place is very welcoming and warming. Highly recommend if you ever in Bruges to go there.

Had a wonderful meal at this restaurant following recommendations of the concierge at our hotel. A limited menu but each option sounded amazing. We had steak (perfect) and fish of the day (John Dory- delicious). The food was outstanding, the atmosphere very relaxed, the restaurant itself spotless and the staff attentive and friendly. Would recommend and return.

We have given a thorough try to the place and OMG. I will come back the very first time I can. :) The staff is very nice, the atmosphere of the place is great, and the food is perfect. And the desserts were able to top up the experience. Love the place.
