A pleasant restaurant with part inside and part under a very good demountable extension. Friendly service. Plenty of adjoining car spaces.The restaurant has a varied menu, my favourite dish being the mussels which are cooked in a sauce of your choice. Served in the metal pot with a pile of fries on the side, in the Belgian tradition. The beefsteak is also very good and even spaghetti eaters and children are catered for!Each day there is a new dish of the day at a reasonable price. Recommended.Closed on Mondays and also closed on Tuesdays out of the summer season.

We gingen binnen in deze zaak die goed vol zat.We werden bediend door een vriendelijke dame. Wat ons direct stoorde was het lawaai. Een gesprek voeren is moeilijk. De akoestiek is zeer slecht.Voor een hapje te eten of iets te drinken is het niet zo een probleem. Maar om rustig,gezellig te tafelen zoek je beter een andere plaats.

We were kicked out at 14h00 with a remark "read the sign, we close at two". 5 minutes before two you automatically get the bill and you are not allowed to comment or order a coffee or anything. Been coming here for years at noon almost every two weeks, but this was the last time.

Deze zaak is pas overgenomen.Spijtig de zaak is heel slecht aangekleed.akoestiek laat te wensen over.Wij bestelde kaaskroketjes en die waren goed.Voorzien van een sla.Ook parking is er voldoende in omgeving.Achtergrond muziek is bijna niet te verstaan door de akoestiek.Misschien gordijnen of dergelijk zou dit probleem zeker verbeteren.Er is ook een plaats met gratis tijdschriften.

We are kind of "regulars" in this restaurant because of the good atmosphere, good quality fresh food and the good wine. The chef and his wife, who also serves in the restaurant know what it takes to please the customers. I definitely recomend this place!

Our very nice bartender at Ter Dolen called and made a dinner reservation for us at Enfin. We took his advice and set off down the road to this restaurant we had never heard of. We found ourselves in a small, intimate restaurant full of interesting aromas and cushy white armless chairs. Thankfully, the waitress spoke English, though the menu is certainly only available in Dutch. She helped us choose an appetizer, which was a terrine of sorts. I could make out what a lot of the main options were myself, but we chose to split a dish for two that we could not translate called Côte à lâos, just to see what it was. We made a good move; côte à lâos turned out to be a delicious piece of rare roasted beef served on a bed of roasted vegetables with sweet potato puree alongside delicious Belgian fries and a cheesy béchamel sauce. Though the menu said the dish served two, we could have easily split it four ways. The meal stands out among the very best I had in Belgium. Sure, it took a while to get out, but I could see the chef preparing the whole meal fresh.Later, the waitress brought out her full selection of teas so that I could choose from them myself. She accommodated us so well, even though we could not speak the language and the restaurant probably does not receive a lot of business from tourists. I would highly recommend this restaurant to any folks traveling from Achel or Ter Dolen to Brussels.

This restaurant is tucked behind a large Mcdonalds in the middle of a sleepy Belgian town so frankly we weren't expecting much. My goodness, we were wrong. We found a slick, modern, buzzing restaurant packed with smartly dressed diners of all ages. From first sight, we could see it was a well run and popular place. We arrived on spec on a Saturday night and we were a group of 17, with a wheelchair user amongst us. Many restaurants would have been unable to cope. Here? No problem. The helpful staff sorted us out a couple of tables within 15 minutes. We were welcomed in and treated to a first class meal by the friendly, professional staff. The young restaurant proprietor was particularly impressive and deserves the success he is clearly enjoying with his local clientele. So good was it that we came back the following night and brought the remainder of our group of 30. 15 of our group are 17 year lads, as we were all there for their football tour. No matter how pleasant and polite a group of 17 year olds might be, it is not unusual to find that a group as large as this is met with a degree of stand offishness. Not so here. They were treated with the same respect and friendly professionalism as the rest of our group. Ordering from the Flemish menu they tried dishes they had not heard of before and had an evening they will never forget. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. If you are ever in the vicinity, don't miss it.

4th visit now and we had a perfect lunch once again. Went for the 5-course set menu and were very pleased with all dishes, as well concerning the presentation as with the harmony of tastes and flavours. Nice winelist with some interesting very affordable wines. Friendly staff and owners!

Went there on a sunday sunny afternoon for two coffee. One double espresso and one latte machiatto. Got the Latte machiatto which was not more than a big glas of hot milk with coffee and the double espresso was about 20 ml I suggest. We where sure they made a mistake and give us a single espresso. When we got the bill we had to pay 5 euro just for the double espresso. The waiter didn t react anyway when we asked him for a slight explanation. Disappointed we left. At home we read the other ratings and understand our experience now fully.
