We had a starter, asparagus with smoked eel, tasty, nicely served, but for 18 Euros you expect more than the quantity you expect to be an amuse! The main dishes were fine, but 29 Euro for a small piece of cod-fish, sides such as a few wedges of potato (5 Euro extra), veggies (starting at 5 Euro extra) have to be ordered and paid for separately. That makes a simple dish very expensive.The wine was good.A surprise when we received the bill, a 70 cl bottle of tap water is charged 6.20 Euro! Sorry guys, but that's really, really far over the top!

Wine bar
Reviewed By Colin B
Unwined moved from a back lane a few years ago to this great location just off the Grote Markt and under the shadows of the tower of St Rombouts. Sit in or out . It is comfortable retro/industrial style with a nice quirky back room and a courtyard off. There are wines by the glass and snacks. Little on the pricy side but well worth a visit for some chablis and cheese - you can buy bottles to take away also. All wines are well selected.

We decided to have dinner here before hitting the airport. It was a good decision. Service was pleasant and efficient. Great atmosphere. The food was happy mix. Local interpretation of dishes but well presented and good to eat once you except the quirky add ons. Classic Belgian dishes on menu as well. We will be back to try them out.

I was invited for dinner by a Dutch friend. We both did not know what to expect but soon we realised that this was a really nice price quality Italian/Belgian restaurant. Nice menu: I chose Belgian cheese croquettes which were greatly prepared (crusty and lovely melting cheese inside). The scallopini were also excellent! Nice service and very close to the E19 highway.

Quiet on a Tuesday evening, and our hostess gave us plenty of attention, suggesting dishes and describing them to help the choice process. Swordfish carpaccio, scampi and antipasto Umbro all excellent. The preferred white wine was unavailable, but the hostess suggested an alternative which was close in taste and very nice. The same thing happened with the choice of red later. For the mains, lemon veal, sea bass were very tasty. Only small comment: could do with vegetables to be added. All food was exceptional.

This bistro is housed in a nice building. Service is moderate. Frustrating was the fact we needed to wait two hours for our dish: a simple pizza and two pasta dishes. Food was ok, but not great; for sure not worth the money. Explaining to the manager, this was getting unacceptable, the lady got furious and threatened to call police. Suggest not to go there.

Unfortunately i chose this restaurant only for the last dinner! It is a great location woth such a warm atmosphere, weiters are friendly and smiling, dishes simply great to the eye and to the mouth. It is hard to call it italian restaurant: lucky it simply has some italian specialities but dressed in a unique way, not italian actually but better! Parking available, open air tables if good weather
