Safe to say, it's my favorite restaurant in Leuven. An innovative dining experience, and it's for once not just plain marketing words. I've discovered new flavors, and new combinations I've never even considered. Staff is polite, very attentive to your needs, and recognizes you on return visits. It's a place I'm eager to return to for many more visits;
The taste of food, and service are really good. But portions are really, really small... I think this is something that the restaurant should work on. This is not a place to go with an empty stomach, to eat at a reasonable price in Leuven.
Great food and great service. It’s a nice place where you have a good time with your loved ones or celebrate a special day. My boyfriend and I left very happy. We both got a 4 course menu and each dish was super delicious (don’t worry about the portion size because they’re very filling). Our waiter Gwenn was very helpful and friendly, he took the time to explain every dish and he made us feel home and comfortable. We will definitely come back.
Excellente cuisine, plats raffinés. La formule dégustation est très bien. Ambiance décontractée et service en salle au top.
A wonder for pallets delicious food rich in flavours, every dish was unique from the beginning to the end. Enjoyed every bite! Service is great, friendly, welcoming, they let you enjoy your food yet always on alert for every table's needs. Even presented some extra delicious treats. Kudos to the team 👏 .
Had a great lunch at Barba’s. This restaurant combines the informality of a brasserie with fine dining. The cuisine is very creative and uses a lot of seasonal vegetables. All plates are very well dressed and create good photo opportunities. 😊 The restaurant is located in a small terraced house which makes there’s not much room between the tables. This place offers a tremendously good value lunch menu. No wonder it gets crowded around lunch time. Reservations are in order here. Do avoid the two high tables in the front with uncomfortable chairs. Staff are very helpful and there is a wine list with some nice southern Burgundy wines.
It’s a small restaurant in a pedestrian area in Leuven. Excellent food with fresh ingredients. Quality price for day menu is reasonable. If you want to eat big portions you should choose from la carte. Make a reservation otherwise you don’t get a table. This restaurant is always full in lunch hours. The service is excellent
Very good food, excellent wines, nice venue, fresh ingredients. Excellent service. The dishes were really good. I would suggest the chefs to pay a wee bit more attention in the way the food is laid on the plates. That would make them perfect. Otherwise, we had a very pleasant lunch. Very good quality for a fair price.
Classy fine restaurant with a casual vibe to it. They accomodated my pescatarian taste and things went well. Food is high quality and the service is friendly. A bit over priced for what it is but is not terribly bad. I heard a lot of positive things about this place and was glad that I tried it. Nothing earthshattering, but its very good. I can return one day.
Blijft een geweldig restaurant met een fijne kaart , uiterst vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. En ook qua prijs/kwaliteit een uitstekend verhouding. Enig nadeel aan het restaurant is de oppervlakte , wanneer het echt vol is , is het echt vol. Maar dat is slechts een detail in het geheel. Aanrader
Goede ervaring
Central restaurant in the pedestrianised zone that is very welcoming. The staff are charming and helped us choose the right number of courses from the set menu and accompanying craft beer. The food was absolutely delicious and the whole experience most delightful.
The food is a mixture of art and philosophy The way tastes and colours play with your eyes and tongue is memorable However if you are more like me that eating is just eating and you wanna go run to your plans I would not advice this place I can’t imagine I spent 2hours eating Who gonna burn all this? If you are a food lover then this is a place to be. God! I can’t believe I ate all the food Thank you!
