FRESH FRESH FRESH that's the credo of Restaurant Meat Factory in Antwerp, located on the Grand place, right in the Centre of this beautiful city. MEAT the name says it all, at Meat Factory, there are several meat dishes on the menu. A true paradise for al
Waiters were very attentive to us (they suggested us to take off our jacket, asked if everything was fine, etc.). The food was tasty but not enough potatoes with the burgers (could be enough for non starving people). We didn't waited the time for a long time.Well located (in the grote markt), and very cosy restaurant (not to big like canteens). Toilets were cleaned.I really recommend it.Bedankt voor de toffe recensie! We doen ons uiterste best om iedereen zo goed mogelijk te bedienen en zijn blij te horen dat u alles goed vond! Tot de volgende keer! Julien Meat Factory

Small restaurant with typical Belgian cuisine. Since it is just husband (cook) and wife (service) : Reservation required.
A group of four of us were visiting Antwerp and were told this was a nice place for food. We walked to the restaurant and arrived at 11:55 noticing the place was dark and no one was inside. We weren't sure if for some reason it was closed (perhaps a private party?) but as it was so close to opening we waiting outside for the remaining five minutes. At noon a woman opened the door and immediately had a frown on her face. We smiled and asked if they were serving lunch. She immediately became agitated and asked if we had reservations (no), how many seats we needed (4 - no way!) and scolded us that we should of called for reservations. The issue isn't that they couldnt accommodate us - it was the response. Surely this business has had others attempt to walk in and get a seat, no? Not to mention that, as the restaurant was literally shut down, I'm not sure how we could of secured a reservation to begin with. If you don't have any availability that's fine... a simple not today would suffice vs. admonishing us on the street. The above doesn't really do justice to the interaction. The lady was just downright rude. Please look at my other reviews because you can see that I do not have a history of making negative reviews for trivial issues - this might be my first 1 or 2 star review. Maybe this lady was just having a rough day but no matter what I wouldn't return regardless of how good the food is.Hello,I'm sorry you feel like I was being rude. I just told you we didn't have a table for 4 since they were already booked. You looked really surprised and asked if you could do 2 tables of 2, on which I replied that wouldn't be possible because there is only 1 person in the kitchen and 1 doing service and we don't want people to have to wait too long and that can happen if everybody comes at noon together. It's just how we try to run our restaurant efficiently.We always start in the morning to do preparations but we turn on the light when we open because otherwise people could be confused if we are open or not.I really don't think I scolded at you or neither was I agitated. We are just a very small business and places are limited so making a reservation can assure you of a table. You can call or email for reservations. (link on tripadvisor)Regarding your friend writing a review on Google saying there was nobody inside, like you said, I just opened the door. I was expecting a table of 4 at 12, 4 at 12.15 and 3 tables of 2 at 12.30. Often this are business people who don't have a lot of time so we limit our tables during lunch. It is a shame you had to write a review about something that could have been avoided if you just made a reservation. Kind regard, Nathalie

we went to morso for a nice dinner and were welcomed really friendly by the attentive staff. Throughout the evening, there was a serene atmosphere even though the street nearby was relatively busy. We were able to watch the sunset from our seats outside and the waiters were all very likable :)

Gastronomy Lunch menu 2 or 3 cours Only Menu 4 or 5 cours
If your restaurant is nr 1 on trip advisor you can expect some critical guests and on our visit we were certainly not convinced it deserved this titel. We were here on a saturday night with some friends. We were invited in friendly and the service itself was very good except for the timing (see later). There is only a choice in 4 or 5 course menu with optional cheese. We opted for 4 and cheese added (cheese to replace desert is also possible) so in total we still had a 5 course meal. When we refused the wine pairing (this time mainly because we had to drive home after) we had a first sign that they did not like it. We chose a bottle of our own and than experienced this : the first two courses came fluent and then we had to wait an hour before the main arrived and only after i asked why it took so long ? Meanwhile they emptied our bottle very quickly into our glasses hoping that we were to order a new one. But we had decided it in advance to keep alcohol very low that evening. SInce it was a white wine and we were waiting to finish it with our main course and the hour waiting time our wine was warm when it finaly arrived. The cheese and dessert arrived then straight after meaning we had to eat the three last courses in half an hour time. It all felt a bit strange this timing and attitude altough i never had the feeling they disliked us, it was just that feeling of not doing what they expected that sent us home with a bad taste. Concerning the food it was good but to us experienced michelin stars eaters nothing came exciting some parts on the plates were even lacking of flavour, so on that part you can have a good plate of food but nothing worth to drive 100 km like we did for it.This is one i will not return to.

The Pastorie [Parsonage] is situated in an authentic pastoral residence dating from the 17th century. The building is looked over by a whimsically-shaped catalpa tree and around it there is a spacious idyllic garden to enjoy. In the summer, dining is deli
It wasn't our first vist and it won't be our last. Throughout the years, Karl, Loes and their team keep their standards very high resulting in a supreme culinary experience and royal hospitality. If you like 'sweetbreads', you should as for them: the best in the world.M.Thanks for your compliments.carl&loes

The specialty of this restaurant is meat which is prepared on ' the Big Green Egg ', a 3000 year old clay oven.
We were greeted by the hugely passionate Chef Patron Julien, who explained the choice of steaks on offer, and the differences between them.We were seated adjacent to the kitchen, so it almost felt like we had been afforded the luxury of the Chefâs Table, with the theatre of preparation on show.The âBig Green Eggâ used to cook the steaks is able to char the outside of the steak while leaving it perfectly medium-rare inside, and making for a âfall off the boneâ tenderness to the Tomahawk Steak. The second, mature steak we had chosen was filled with a depth of flavour that it hard to get outside of this method of cooking.Not overly fussy, just delicious - everything was fresh, including the handmade sauces, and will be definitely return the next time we are in Antwerp.

Belgische keuken met een twist in gezellig kader
Heel gezellig, prima bediening en vooral heel lekker eten! Ideale ingrediënten dus voor een leuk avondje met vrienden. Niets op aan te merken, doe zo voort!

We were invited by friends for a meal at this converted farmhouse in the countryside south of Antwerp. As has been mentioned in another review, it's pretty far off the beaten path so a GPS is a must unless you know the area.The restaurant itself is a little gem in a former farmhouse with a strong rustic feel. Staff are friendly and service is on par with other similar establishments. Meals are not hurried, and the whole experience proceeds at a leisurely pace (which may not be your thing if you're a fan of super speedy North American style service).The food itself is hearty flemish cooking, inspired by the seasons/time of year. While we were there, the theme was wild game dishes. The food is excellent and flavourful, and there's enough variety on the menu to please most people. For dessert, check out the Mikado crepes, mmm.
