10. Frituur Den Uil

We visited this chip shop once, expecting it to be really good just on first impressions. But the range of products offered was very limited and the staff knew little about possible ingredients. Looking for solutions for a glutenfree diet was way beyond them. We left without having bought anything.

They have a superb stewed meat dish and excellent French fries. A variety of dishes is available, for less than ten euros they serve you a big plate, half meat, half vegetables. The interior is modern but not particularly large or cozy - then again, it's clean and decent for a fast food place.

Fortunately it was a very pleasant summers evening - so the massive wait was not too bad, but I have to say that the service was VERY SLOW!The food was delightful and the wines were excellent. I would recommend visiting the restaurant ... but be prepared for a long wait!

Gezellige brasserie met een eenvoudige kaart en personeel met niveau. Huiswijnen zijn lekker en op de juiste temperatuur geschonken. Wij hadden spaghetti en een vispannetje, beiden zeer ok.

This restaurant is almost hidden in the beauty of the Flemish Ardennes, and has a slightly out of place urban feel. However the gold, black and wood interior is stylish and tastefully done. Service is friendly and welcoming, including consideration of food allergies. The food is good quality, tasty and in decent portions. Given the price, the look and the menu this is a place for special occasions.

Even though we live less than 10km from this place, we'd never visited before. We came here after an afternoon of hiking. They have about 60 different types of beer, a good selection of gin tonics and some nice nibbles to go with them. We decide to stay for dinner too. Even though this was a Tuesday, the place filled up quickly with people who obviously knew the place and had made reservations beforehand. The menu is small and very traditional, but good. We'll definitely visit again.

My husband and I went to dinner with two friends in Eekeveld last night. The restaurant is situated in the owner's own house which gives you the feeling of being at home. It is not a huge restaurant as there are only three rooms, beautifully furnished with crystal chandeliers. We think they cater for a maximum of around 25 persons.As it was a lovely evening we were brought to the back garden for the aperitif. We decided upon the â¬39 menu excluding drinks as we all don't drink the same things. Two of us had the scampi as a starter and two had the home made pate foie gras. This was followed by a choice of soup or sorbet with jenever. As I had said upon arrival that I was the driver and didn't want alcohol, I was delighted when they brought my sorbet, it was without alcohol. For the main course three of us had Chateaubriand "Archiduc" and one young duck with port sauce. The wine, we ordered per glass was according to my husband and friends excellent quality. The dessert of home made ice-cream, chocolate mousse and fresh fruit.Another thing that impressed us was the fact that while in the garden we discovered they grow their own herbs which are situated under the kitchen window.This was a superb meal at an excellent price. I would have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant.

The Shake is definitely fancier than the outside or name implies (maybe I'm missing a cultural reference). My dad and I split a black angus meal. I don't speak Dutch so I couldn't tell you which cut of meat it was but it was fantastic. It's cooked in a Spanish oven and has a slight smoky taste. It's just enough to be good but not overbearing. It also comes with a salad which I didn't care for, bread, and olives while the meat is being cooked, and one side that comes out with the meat. We had about four slices on each of our plates which was about what we expected given the quality and type of restaurant. Then the waitress walked by and said the rest of the meat would be out soon. They brought at least double what we already had. We got french fries as our side and by the end we finished the meat but were way too full to finish the fries. Overall, it was a great experience and I definitely recommend it to anyone going through the area.

The gastro menu was excellent,seasoning perfect.I usually struggle with a large menu but not today, portions were just right.The wine was good,the young man serving the wine has an obvious passion for wines, he gave a good explication on each wine, he knew his stuff!Not to miss this restaurant, better than the 1star michelin we went to in geraardsbergen!
1. Brasserie Chopin
At Brasserie - Restaurant Chopin, you can enjoy seasonal, varied but most of all local dishes, while enjoying the view of the Grote Markt (great place) of Ronse. Following the seasons and holidays, you can enjoy set menus such as for Easter, Mothersday, .

I recently had dinner with friends at Chopin the food was great really enjoyed it the only negative I have was we were a group of 11 so they put us in a private room which was ok but the service was quite slow and we all thought that we had been forgotten about drinks were a little slow to get replaced. Thank you for your review! We are happy that you've enjoyed the food and the service. We've taken note of the time between the replacements of the drinks and we will make sure that this doesn't happen again in the future. We are thankfull for your visit and nice review and we truly hope to see you again !
