Hotel Messeyne

Reviewed By limburg353 - Bergen, The Netherlands

Tired after a long journey I decided to have dinner at this restaurant just a few minutes walking from my hotel. I had been looking at the menu beforehand and the sweetbread looked mouthwatering.
I arrived at the restaurant but unfortunately I was told there was no place because I did not make a reservation.
I explained that I only wanted to order a main course " the sweetbread" so the staff was so kind to organise a table for me knowing that I would not be there for a very long time.
The sweetbread was fantastic served with spinach and different mushrooms in a superb sauce and topped with a thin layer of foie gras so yammie.
It was so extremely kind of the staff to fit me in anyway. great service great place great food.

Tucked away just behind the Grote Markt a pleasant setting with attentive staff. Food was good, reasonably priced and well presented. Definitely worth a visit and being off the main tourist trail is a plus.

Table d'Amis

Reviewed By alwaysonthemove001 - Dominican Republic

We stopped for lunch on our way to France and told the staff we could only spare 90 min, so they proposed us a nice lunch with cod for starters and then chicken. The food was excellent with very fresh products. We got several small bites with our apero cocktail, and then had the proposed glass of wine to go with the dishes.
The settings is very minimalistic, we were lucky to sit outside. Service was very friendly and perfect. A bit on the expensive side.

Reviewed By David M - Ramsgate, United Kingdom

Ate here as a party of 4 at lunchtime. We all had the set meal €40. Very good value. Included aperitif main and ice cream or Irish coffee. For main we had lamb chops, lamb leg and 2 x rib of beef. Definitely not for vegetarians but the meat was lovely. Great flavour and cooked to perfection. Irish coffee was very strong, but not with coffee. I want to go back today.

Improviste by David Selen

L'improviste By David, Bistronomie & TeaLounge Little known, the concept "Bistronomie" is a transposition of gourmet cuisine presented in a simpler way as in a brewery. Het nog weinig gekende concept "Bistronomie" brengt de gastronomische keuken op een eenvoudige manier. TASTE OF THE DAY! From gastronomy to the Bistro through its TeaLounge, not to mention all the suggestions of David. Products of quality, finely worked. Every new season, I would suggest a new card, you could come to taste it entirely on the first Friday night of the new season in the form of walking diner.

Our experience in the restaurant 'David Selen' proves that for some chefs it doesn't matter if you come with a voucher or not - We did have bad restaurant visits with vouchers... - , you are treated like a king or queen anyway. We stayed there to enjoy the wonderful meal, to sleep in the great B & B and to delight in a gorgeous breakfast. The service was absolutely to our satisfaction. And yes, chef David Selen came to shake our hand. Did this add anything to the surprising supper we had? I must admit, no, but it counted up to the warm welcome we had from the beginning. And the end, our breakfast, was AMAZING! Who can tell he had a slice of 'truffle' in his champagne as a birthday present? Thanks for this stunning gourmet indulgence!

Bistro Bordo

Reviewed By MikeV84 - Ghent, Belgium

Bistro Bordo is a cosy restaurant on the verge of the town center. The pleasant dining room immediately made us feel like home.
The menu is all about fondue. Our group had the Mexican and the regular fondue, both of which were delicious. The same could be said of the (affordable) wine.
During the entire meal, we got the full attention of the hostess, who kept bringing us new sauces, fries and fajitas.
For an informal, relaxing, tasty and affordable dining experience in Kortrijk, head for Bistro Bordo!

This is my favorite place in Kortrijk, I came here almost every month. Prices are high, but the environment is cozy and the breakfast is quite good, natural orange juice, good coffee, delicious vienoisseries, yogurt and pistolet.
