Bonsoir Clara

Great eclectic restaurant in a fashionable neighbourhood

22 Rue Antoine Dansaert 22
Brussels 1000
Belgium
+32 (0)2 502 0990

This is a delightful restaurant with a young, convivial atmosphere in the heart of Brussels' small fashion district. The menu is rather hard to categorize since it's as varied as one can get. You can just as easily dine on French or Italian cuisine as you can on Asian. This is an excellent choice for groups whose members have varying tastes, and for those simply wanting a delicious meal in a pleasant atmosphere. The restaurant is spacious, the service friendly and the prices reasonable.

Quincaillerie

Dine in a former ironmonger's shop 45 Rue du Page
Brussels 1050
Belgium
+32 (0)2 533 9833
http://www.quincaillerie.be Once an ironmonger's shop and now a trendy restaurant, this charming bistro is visited regularly by famous people from all over Europe including Helmut Kohl, Gérard Depardieu and The Gipsy Kings. It serves delicious meat dishes including seasonal game and fish. Oysters and the seafood platter are house specialties. Lunch is served from Monday to Friday; as is the so-called What The Bosses are Having Today three-course meal. The menu changes weekly according to what fresh ingredients are available.

Ristorante Bocconi

Italian Cuisine at its Best Rue de l'Amigo 1
Hotel Amigo Brussels
Brussels 1000
Belgium
+32 2 547 4715
http://www.hotelamigo.com/dining/ Bocconi has many admirers. The cuisine is Mediterranean but contemporary; the chef offers his own version. VIPs and stars all wish to be seen here; its the perfect meeting place. The hand painted plates on the walls and the modern design puts you at ease at once. Indulge yourself, order some wine at the behest of the head waiter. Pamper yourself and let all your needs be taken care of.

Soeur du Patron

Trendy restaurant with relaxed atmosphere 1700 Chaussée de Wavre
Brussels 1160
Belgium
+32 (0)2 675 0092
http://www.lasoeurdupatron.be/ A glass roof that during the summer months can be pushed away, stone vaults and a labyrinth-style dining area make this family restaurant a fascinating place to eat. The establishment's partially painted walls round out the creative visual ambiance; its a daring combination that beams adventure. The menu is daring as well, offering many exotic dishes. Choose between several types of carpaccios, dishes with a special preparation that includes freezing the item and thinly slicing then cooking.

Truffe Noire

First class truffles 12 Boulevard de la Cambre
Brussels 1000
Belgium
+32 (0)2 640 4422
http://www.truffenoire.com The Black Truffle, one of the best restaurants in Brussels, has maintained its highly coveted Michelin star for several years. The delightful interior (choose the Tuscan or Venetian salon) is rivaled only by the cuisine itself. Contrary to the restaurant's name, Chef Luigi Ciciriello actually prefers white Italian truffles. During the season (October-January) the choice of truffle dishes is unlimited. Try the pasta with cream and white truffles. Out of season, tasty meat and fish dishes are available.
