    Very authentic pasta restaurant. Yep, only pasta: Bolognese, cheese & bacon, veggie and seafruit. Very delicious. There may be a queue at the entrance, but as soon as you are seated, you're fasted served. You can also make a reservation online or by phone. The downside: finding a parking spot is super difficult! Highly recommended! If you like my review, the please 'like' it.

    Very delicious spaghetti. Fresh, big portions (you can take the leftovers with you in a Tupperware), very friendly staff and not expensive (€38 for 2p., drinks included). We waited for 30' before a table was cleared (arrived at 7.30pm, sat down at 8pm). Expect a lot of people, because it's definitely the place to be for delicious pastas in a very pleasant environment!

    I've been coming to Pee Klak for years now. If you're looking for a quick pasta in a cosy atmosphere near Brussels, this is the place! The menu is limited to 4 different kinds of sauce but this is also their strength. Kind waiting staff. A bit difficult to find a good parking spot on busy hours and a reservation is recommended.

    (Translated by Google) We've been queuing on the sidewalk for 30 years, summer and winter alike, to eat spaghetti. Never seen. Nowhere else. Why? The answer is on the plate. (Original) Ça fait 30 ans qu'on fait la file sur le trottoir, été comme hiver, pour manger un spaghetti. Du jamais vu. Nulle part ailleurs. Pourquoi? La réponse est dans l'assiette.

    This place you visit to have a spaghetti; yes that’s it. A restaurant with just one plate: spaghetti – although there are different preparations. The place is nicely decorated and the atmosphere is “like home”. Staff is very nice and friendly. The spaghetti is of course excellent – otherwise you could not run a place this way. It can - and probably will – be crowded !

    Classic! Guaranteed spaghetti fest!

  • 5/5 Tom K. 2 years ago on Google
    Best place for a good spaghetti. Too bad Corona messed up the tradition of being overcrowded and waiting outside to get called in. Now you have to book in advance.

  • 5/5 Merve G. 6 years ago on Google
    Ahhh I finally went there! Lovely place, great service, good food and affordable prices! Honestly, for a quick stop/dinner without anything fancy and with the sole purpose of filling your belly while having a casual time; this is the place to go!

  • 5/5 Elemental F. 4 years ago on Google
    It is the best spaghetti in the world. The vegetarian spaghetti is fenomenal! All in the most cosy setting. Whished that every place was Pee Klak... Suggestion: Order a Ice-tea with your spaghetti

  • 5/5 JiJi B. 2 years ago on Google
    Good spaghetti, sauces to choose from, BIG portions, friendly service. Great place to go to with friends :)

  • 4/5 JU G. 2 years ago on Google
    It's a legend for a reason, simple but gold! The menu is pasta with 4 sauces: the classical bolognese and ham&cheese, their seafood sauce and of xourse a vegetarian sauce👌 Just note it is not an Italian style preparation and the sauce here is served on top.

  • 5/5 Tarek Q. 4 years ago on Google
    Simply the best Spaghetti I've ever had, anywhere Amazing atmosphere, been coming here for nearly 10 yrs. I would rate this as Belgium's best kept secret. I've brought countless friends and colleagues here and they've all been blown away. There's a queue out the door every day, and this is the only queue I get into with a smile on my face, knowing that it's well worth the wait, even in the freezing winter. Smakelijk every time!

  • 4/5 Björn De B. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Eric P. 4 months ago on Google
    Huge portions of pasta in a cool setting. It's not fancy, but it was one of the favorite places we ate in the area.

  • 5/5 Pavithra H. 6 months ago on Google
    Over 50 countries of travel the best spaghetti Bolognese I had in my life! Omg it was awesome I was so full I barely could walk out of the place!! It's kid friendly there are lot of toys and books to keep kids distracted! My 2 year old son enjoyed the spaghetti too and this dude we had to feed most of the time ate by him self !! The moment I ate it my eyes lit up with happy comfort of food satisfaction!! Heavenly

  • 4/5 Johan S. 4 months ago on Google
    It was good food. A lot of cheese came on the side. The ham and cheese sauce I had, had perhaps a bit to much pepper flavour. A very popular place, we had to stand in line for 15 minutes before they let us in, on a Thursday.

  • 5/5 Peter B. 6 months ago on Google
    Fantastic place for a good old fashioned spaghetti dish. Love the atmosphere and the food was great

  • 5/5 deagle b. 3 months ago on Google New
    There's no other place like Pee Klak. It's rustic, authentic and just an awesome concept which has worked for over 40 years and is still amazingly popular to this day. I myself gladly travel 60km from Antwerp when i get the chance to go eat 'ne spaghetti' at Pee Klak. The staff is super friendly and efficient, the place is always packed at any time of the day, but it doesn't feel too crowded when it is. Nothing but positives from me, i think you can tell I'm a huge fan :P

  • 4/5 Frédéric Loos (. 1 year ago on Google
    The menu is very simple, you can choose between 3 spaghetti dishes. This makes that the food is served quite fast and the quality is consistent.

  • 5/5 Joma A. 1 year ago on Google
    Café atmosphère, excellent spaghetti 🍝. When I am coming back from Tirol and visit family, I must eat a couple of times and feel happy 😊

  • 5/5 Romeo 1 year ago on Google
    Popular local restaurant specialising in Pasta dishes. The restaurant is in a residential area, making it more authentic. They have the classic pasta bolognese, vegan pasta, seafood pasta and others. They have a variety of local beers, wine and choices of cocktails. The service is friendly and the restaurant have a traditional feel in it. Highly recommend it. 👌

  • 3/5 Olivier 1 year ago on Google
    This one was ony 'to-go'-list for quite some time, as it's supposed to be the best spaghetti in Brussels. Well, it's for sure not 'the best'. However, items a very simple, good and typical Belgian version of the spaghetti Bolognese, for a reasonable price. The normal portion is a decent size, i can't imagine how big the maxi would be. Also no need for extra cheese, as it's cheesy enough 🙂 I did had to add a bit of salt and spicy oil, both provided on the table. The atmosphere is also nice. Nicely decorated. We were pretty early (18h), so didn't had to wait at all. I guess i would come back if i have family visiting and we want to go eat a spaghetti and catch up, and not want to go fancy dining, or cook at home ourselves.

  • 4/5 Kevin S. 1 year ago on Google
    Simply great spaghetti, no BS. Buried in a ton of cheese, just the way I like it :)

    Leuke locatie, gezellig interieur (beetje bruine kroeg gevoel) en zowel de kaas/ham als bolognaise spaghetti waren heerlijk.

  • 4/5 Ivan De G. 3 years ago on Google
    Een fenomeen waar je zeker eens geweest moet zijn! Parkeren kan soms wel een drama zijn maar dat moet je erbij nemen. De sfeer is heel huiselijk zonder franjes. Dus je kan aperitiefje bestellen, daarna komt de heerlijke spaghetti en dan is het eigenlijk wel tijd om af te ronden. Dat is op zich niet verkeerd maar een romantische avond moet je hier niet proberen plannen denk ik :) . Zeker eens om te proberen!

  • 4/5 Catherine B. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 cyril V. 3 years ago on Google
    J'aurais pu dire 4 étoiles pour le manque de confort aux tables. Mais leur sauce bolognaise est vraiment excellente et pour y avoir été une dizaine de fois, malgré le monde, le service est toujours aussi rapide. (Et bon)

    Simple, delicious spaghetti bolognaise in a classical cafe. Feels highly authentic, style is typical for Brussels , beer selection also very local and matches well with the food. Watch out for peak times as the place is always crowded, highly recommended!

    (Translated by Google) The menu is very limited, but that makes the spaghetti you can eat legendary, as is the space in which you eat. Only drawback, there is almost no parking nearby. The store is located in a residential area. (Original) De kaart is erg beperkt, maar dat maakt dat de spaghetti die je kan eten legendarisch is, net als de ruimte waarin je eet. Enig nadeel, er is bijna geen parking in de buurt. De zaak ligt in een woonwijk.

    (Translated by Google) I had already been 1x there and I did not like the fact of climbing the very narrow floor, the toilets really not clean. Lately I took it and more took away and thin 20 th portion per person they increased for the corona and it was not fun. In addition it would be nice to certify on the card that there is pastis in seafood spaghetti. For those who are Muslim. A minimum please. (Original) J'avais déjà été 1x sur place et je n'ai pas aimé le faite de monter l'étage très étroit, les toilettes vraiment pas propre . Dernièrement j'ai pris et plus a emporté et mince 20 e la portion par personne ils on augmenter pour le corona et c'est pas sympas . De plus sa serais gentil de certifié sur la carte qu'il y a du pastis dans le spaghetti fruit de mer. Pr ceux qui sont musulmans. Un minimum svp .
