    4.6 is a very very high score... for this tourist trap! Considering the very poor deco, the very average seafood quality and the high price! My scallops were swimming in oil and my lobster was like plastic and both were not tasty! The clients are mostly Chinese! There are many many better places around!! Avoid!

    The manager/owner is very friendly. He accommodated my wish to surprise my wife on her birthday. Our food is EXCELLENT! The mussels and sauce are delicious and well cooked. 1/2 Lobster dish is GREAT. It is very tasty on grilled lobster. The birthday dessert is very good as well. Nothing to complain, only happiness when we walked out. Will definitely visit this restaurant again…. Please make sure you make a reservation since it has limited seating.

    5 stars for both food and service. Ordered the mussels - garlic and cream. It came in such a huge pot. So worth it. Tried the Spanish paella with shellfish and saffron. Well executed. Had such a hard time finishing the food. Huge portion. Overall, I would commend them on living up to the expectations. Happy customer here.

    The food, service, atmosphere - everything was amazing! The staff and manager were very nice and funny… They could also speak some Indonesian, our mother tongue!!! We even got complimentary waffles and water! We would definitely come again.

    One of the best places to have seafood in Brussels. The hospitality and service were amazing. Loved the ambiance. We tried spaghetti and paella with seafood. Both tasted great but my favorite was the pasta. Portions were big and seafood were fresh. I also enjoyed the wine I tried.

    The right place for fish and seafood gourmands. Prices are not the lowest, but everything is redeemed by the helpfulness of the employees and the desire to please - when you order a lobster, you will not only get a portion of food, not only a service of the edible part removal from the shell, but also a useful portion of education. Really great place to have a good time and a delicious meal!

    Absolute favourite seafood place in Brussels! ✨🦞🦐🦀 We came for a city break for two days and usually don’t like going somewhere twice but we visited Lobster House twice within a couple of days! Fantastic service, very knowledgeable and fun team. The food was super delicious and could eat there every day. Very fresh and tasty seafood. Oysters as fresh as you get them straight from a boat. Had the mussels, one full pot, my partner had to help me fishing it. The sauce garlic & cream was amazing too. Everything just top! My partner had the seafood paella, it was perfectly cooked and such a good portion. It's a simple restaurant but I guess you come there for the food. The restaurant gets booked up very quickly so make sure to reserve a spot

    Delicious Seafood and Good Service! We decided to try out the lobster spaghetti (Lobster Royal), mussels with white wine, and grey shrimp croquettes, pairing them with a glass of white wine and local beers. The ingredients were fresh. Our food arrived promptly, and the staff was friendly. At €118, it was worth every penny. I recommend paying a visit, especially if you're a seafood enthusiast!

    This restaurant has very fresh sea food! We’ve ordered the lobster platter and it was huge!!! The seafood was well cooked and the sauce was delicious! There were celery, green pepper and carrot as well. The service here is excellent, the staff was very friendly too. The atmosphere of the place is cosy and welcoming. I would recommend people to come.

    Nice restaurant with good fish. It's a bit expensive tough. They do have an aquarium with fresh lobsters, so if you don't like the idea, I suggest you look for another venue for your dinner.

    We had a pretty early dinner (around 4pm) but the food was served super quickly :) Paella with shellfish and mussels are both worth recommending! The restaurant owner is a really nice person with whom you can certainly have a delightful chat after the meal 👍

    The restaurant service is amazing. We celebrated my mother's birthday and the whole staff were really kind. The food was amazing. We had the sea food pasta and sea food paella and steaks. The deserts were really delicious. Big thanks to David and Sania for the amazing service and food.

    The restaurant was classy and cozy. And the waiter was welcoming, but they forgot (?) what we ordered menus several times. It was little bit weird feeling. By the way, highly recommend you to order the lobster, it was really delicious and also fresh. But... the seafood spaghetti was not that good, soggy noddle and not fresh squid on it.

    Superbly perfect lobster! ❤️ Great atmosphere even for a very packed Wednesday evening, definitely upscale--but dress as you like--no dress code and a wide diversity of people both young and old. My husband had the steak with pepper sauce which was heavenly as well and cooked to perfection. The Maître d' was excellent as well and extremely helpful with the menu. Highly recommend! PS. Thanks for the beer 🍻 😊👍🏻

    This is one of the best restaurants in Brussels! Me and my good friend each had the full lobster with the house sauce and it was divine - a meal you still think about the next day. It was the perfect amount of food paired with a fresh half bottle of white wine. The service was pleasant, considerate, and kind - making our experience all the more better! This was a fabulous dining experience with high quality food and high quality service. You can't go wrong here!

    Delicious food, outstanding service!!! We went there for dinner, ordered Lobster Bisque, seafood platter and white wine. Lobster bisque was one of the best soups Ive ever tasted 😋 The seafood platter was really big and delicious! The staff were super nice and kind! Highly recommended 👏🏻

  • 2/5 Stefan G. 1 year ago on Google
    The service was a bit stressed and not that friendly. Therefore they did not advise me properly on what I get. the lobster bisque was ok but nothing special. The whole lobster was a bit overcooked and plates are too overfilled to properly start eating without leaving a mess behind.

    Our server Nabil was amazing! Very hospitable, funny, and genuine. Truly appreciated his service. Alongside the service, the food was delightful. Started with a beer and lobster soup followed by the mussels. This alley way was picturesque for a Belgium dining experience! Highly recommend.

    My worst choice of this year maybe. Be fooled by the high point, I really should not to break my rule: never go to a tourist area and try to find a decent restaurant. The food looks ok, but taste totally not good. The sea food spaghetti really big but pool in flavor. The lobster is full of oil and salt, not good at all. However, the fish soup and the snails are much better. Service is ok, but you deserve better with this price.

    Made a reservation a month in advance and it was well worth it. Service was great with helpful and friendly staff. Ameen was great! Lobster was cooked to perfection and portion sizes are definitely made to feed an empty stomach so make sure you go there hungry! Beer on tap was also a great choice. Best food we've had so far in Europe!!!

    It’s interesting that I found all clients are from Asia when I walked in. I think they all checked Google reviews and picked it? The lobster spaghetti is awesome. The mussels and beers are good. The starter and dessert are ok. The service is excellent! Highly recommend it when you visit Brussels.

    I arrived in Brussels and after checking in to my hotel I went straight to Lobster House to make a reservation. We were lucky enough to get a table for later in the evening for myself, my partner and mother in law. It is a popular and busy restaurant so if the manager offers you an alternative reservation I suggest you take it. The management and waiting staff really took care of us and the food was very good quality. As it was our first time the staff were very patient in explaining the dishes and making recommendations. This was a very wonderful experience for our trip and everyone who visits Brussels should eat here at least once for the experience. Lobster House we look forward to eating with you when we come back. Merci beaucoup! Monsieur Scott

    SIMPLY DIVINE! First night: I had the garlic mussels and half lobster. Both were PERFECTION! Second night: I had the lobster bisque and the lamb. Both were AMAZING! The food is wonderful and well worth the price. The service was excellent... the atmosphere is nice. All staff were very accomodating, especially as I was a solo traveller. If I come back to Brussels I only eat dinner here, every night!!

    Down one of the many, many small narrow streets of Brussels you will find this fairly small seafood restaurant. This is definitely the place to come if you are a seafood lover and on top you get great service and in a really cozy and relaxed atmosphere. The food tastes great - is not cheap, but definitely good quality you get for your money and next time we are in Brussels we'll make sure to make a stop here for dinner again!!

  • 5/5 C P. 3 months ago on Google • 116 reviews New
    Food is delicious. Staffs are good services. Reasonable price. We ordered two menus. It’s too much for two people but we could ate them all. Please book the table before you come here for dinner.

    The restaurant deserves so many good reviews. Food is really good especially the mussels. We wanted to have the escargots, but was advised they aren't in season, and had the scallops instead which are very delicious. The service is very welcoming too.

    We took oysters and mussels, everything is very tasty! Excellent Bellevue Gose, goes well with mussels better than any wine. Very nice staff, were with the child - they helped in everything. A compliment at the end of the dinner in the form of limoncello was a pleasant end to the evening. I definitely recommend it!

    We came here for the first restaurant in Brussels but, it didn’t betray our high expectation. We ordered the seafood pasta and mussel with white cream and garlic and both are so tasty. And also the amount of each dish and the prices are just right. I highly recommend you to come when you visit Brussels!!

The best thing about this restaurant is that they are really care about customers' demand. Yesterday when I went to other restaurant, they cannot make me drink my own hot water which I bring them. I really really recommend this restaurant for visitors.

    (Translated by Google) Having seen a good overall rating on this restaurant we went to test Very cold and unpleasant service where I can be a little understanding of the fact that we came towards the end of the shift at 9:30 p.m. but still ... Paella at 49 € ... really not worth it, very little quantity for the price and level of taste ... very bland, not at all like a good paella ... not even really tasty everything I even had to add a lot of salt ... I don't understand why they have such a high rating on Google or TripAdvisor (Original) Ayant vu une bonne note globale sur ce restaurant nous sommes allés tester Service très froid et pas agréable où je peux être un peu compréhensif du fait qu’on soit venu vers la fin de service à 21h30 mais quand même... Paella à 49€...ça ne vaut vraiment vraiment pas le coup, quantité très peu pour le prix et niveau goût...très fade, pas du tout de goût d’une bonne paella...même pas vraiment de goût du tout j’ai même du rajouter beaucoup de sel... Je ne comprend pas pourquoi ils ont une si bonne note sur Google ou TripAdvisor

    I’m from Brussels and I can say that this is by far the best seafood restaurant there is in town. In the heart of the city, this place has an amazing ambiance, the food is delicious, and the service is perfect. I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for fresh and finger-licking good seafood. Had a little conversation with the restaurant owner who is a sweet talker and makes sure his customers are treated as Kings and Queens. Hats off 🎩👏🏽

    Recommended by a friend. Not too bad, but it was a one-time visit. Tomato soup was hot and had some flavor. The seafood spaghetti had flavor and was quite edible. Customer service was nice and decent.

  • 5/5 Alex Z. 1 year ago on Google
    It was one of the best seafood places, in which I have being eating. The clams was so tender they melted in my mouth. We had selected two flavours, beer and garlic cream. Both were fantastic. I also suggest to try an onion soup. It was not a traditional french, but rather creamy. It was so good, my kids liked it. Trust me. It is the highest complement.

  • 4/5 Adrita G. 1 year ago on Google
    If you are looking for a traditional lobster restaurant, this is it. Very old world decor & feel, the place feels like a non nonsense lobster fest & we booked this place with exactly this kind of expectation! Prior reservation is a must as they fill up quick! Order their lobster. That’s it 😁😁 One star less coz the service can be a bit better!

  • 5/5 Antonia keza N. 1 year ago on Google
    Was here this enceint with some friends. I had Paella with lobster since I’m a huge fan,my friends had Grilled salmon and lamb chops. I highly recommend this place to any sea food lover in Belgium. Their sea food is fresh and you are shown your lobster before it’s sent to the kitchen. It’s my second and definitely not the last. I’ll keep bringing my friends as I’m not greedy to keep all this goodness to myself. Thank you lobster house and the boss for being so kind and welcoming. Your service is as good as the food.

    The food was amazing here. Fresh seafood. Yummy paella. I had the mussels and it was amazing. The best I've ever had in Brussels. They were clean and fresh. The paella had generous amount of seafood too. Price was affordable too. It was such a pleasant surprise to find this gem of a restaurant. Will definitely go back here again when we visit Brussels again hopefully next year!

    The best restaurant for lobsters and shells food. Location is very close to the Grand Palace. The service is excellent. Chef is a lady that obviously talented. Price per person is about 45-50 Euro. Lobsters are brought from Canada and kept alive. Better you reserve the table via Google Maps

    We had a moules frites and a seafood platter. All of the seafood are fresh and delicious! We loved the oysters and lobster the most. Shrimp may be a bit overcooked. The staff are very nice and attentive. It’s easy to order and they collected bowls of shells quite frequently. I think it is worth of money, although it seems to be a bit pricey for the seafood platter.

    You should eat here at least once in Brussels. The owner is a Spanish expat and the food reminds me of Spain! Very authentic and delicious. Not very salty. The seafood was so fresh and tender. Omg the squid 🐙🦑! Tender, sweet, and generous amount. It's a bit pricey but you cannot avoid it anywhere in the age of the global inflation. I will definitely come back here if I ever visit Brussels again but probably try a different dish.

    Location: central of Belgium Food Items: seafood platters, lobster/mussel pasta, and house sauce mussels. Good enough for 4 people to share. Totally recommended. FYI, Servers have sarcastic sense of humor, so have a sense of humor.

    The best seafood platter I have ever had! Also, we order steam mussels with Pili sauce, which we enjoy very much. I would like to thank our server Amime for providing excellent service of 5 stars! If you are traveling to Brussels, I would highly recommend this restaurant. On weekends, please call them in advance and reserve a table.

    The Lobster House food was delicious. The seafood pasta was filled with fresh seafoods (Shrimp, squid, clams, mussels). The pasta was also perfect. The staff was friendly and the service was good. Great place to sit down and eat when your in Brussels. The Belgian waffle topped with ice cream and chocolate is a great dessert.

    a beautiful family restaurant where we were able to taste a mixed grill of fish and shellfish. Mussels and fries and scallops prepared to perfection. Welcome and service highly recommended from start to finish.

    I came here because of the paella. It’s not authentic paella, as Arborio rice is used. The food was yummy and the service was exceptional. I didn’t have a reservation but luckily I got a seat. I would advice making a reservation before coming

    The food is super and the service is also great!!! I ordered sea food spaghetti,mussels and oysters. The mussels are very meaty and the oysters are the freshest ones I ever had in Brussels so far!!! When I was here it's not very busy, the warm-hearted waiter cracked the lobsters for me. Everything is perfect!! Super recommended and would definitely come here again😊

    Our expectations dining at The Lobster House were high and when we arrived, they were exceeded. The food was great, the atmosphere was great and most importantly the staff was very professional; great customer service. We thank the team for their great delivery in service. We enjoyed our lobster bisque, oysters, paella and seafood pasta. We definitely recommend.
