ここが有名で特に美味しいと教わったので、私はムール貝は別に好きではありませんが、、、びっくりした！美味しーーーーーーい！！^ ^2人で500gのムール貝を注文。ビールが1杯サービスで付いてきました。ラッキー！2人ならちょうど良いですね。バクバク食べれます。塩加減が良い感じです。店員さん感じ良いです。周りにアジア人いましたが、店員さん達にこやかでした。カルボナーラスパゲッティも注文。これまた美味しい！日本でこんな風にムール貝を食べれるお店はなかなか無いと思うのでムール貝の美味しさを知れて良かったです。ありがとうございました^ ^ムール貝、パスタ、ビール2杯で約45ユーロでお得感ありました。

Biraz erken bir saatte gidince (TC den iki saat geride olduğu için bizim için makul bir akşam yemeği zamanı idi) rezervasyonumuz olmamasına rağmen rahatça yer bulduk. Mekan oldukça otantik ve çok merkezi. Midye ve patates kızartması yedik. Lezzetliydi. Brüksel’e gelip de bir akşamı buraya ayırmadan olmazdı. Biz keyif aldık.

日本語のメニューがあり驚きました！地元の方にお薦めされて足を運びました。貝やお魚のお料理も美味しかったですが、ワッフルが絶品でした！こちらで夕食を頂く前に、いくつかのお店でワッフルを頂いてからの訪問だったのですが、ふわふわした軽いワッフルに、甘すぎないクリームが丁度良くマッチしていて最高でした。スタッフの方は皆さんとてもフレンドリーで、テーブルを担当してくださった方は何から何まで丁寧にお世話をしてくださいました。

Dicen que Chez Leon es para turistas. Puede que lo sea, pero si es famoso se merece la fama. Comida abundante y de calidad, servicio estupendo (mención especial para nuestro camarero Antoine) y buen ambiente (tanto de turistas como de locales). El restaurante es enorme, la carta típica belga excelente, los mejillones y la sopa buenísimos. Una gran experiencia. No es barato pero tampoco caro comparado con el resto de Bruselas. Totalmente recomendable.

Spent a wonderful night with my boyfriend in Chez Leon typical restaurant. Got a very kind and warm welcome, from our waiter. We had mules with fries and a streak, and everything was very perfect! We spent a very special dinner and try some typical food. I surely recommend we spent around 50 or €60 in total.

Having read the reviews on this I suspect there is a lot of language barriers going on.Our waiter was very friendly despite us speaking French he spoke English back.Food was fine, we had mussels & frites, base sauce was a bit bland but refreshing.We ordered a steak tartare to share and watched it being made, came under seasoned but prefer it served that way so we can season ourselves.We had to chase up an ice cream but no issues really. It came super quick after that.I thought it was a nice institution in the area and the waiter explained Dec is always crazy busy then Jan they all get to relax. They’re making the most out of the tourism whilst it lasts. I would definitely return.And kids eat free! Wonderful.

Located in the city centre, Chez Léon is a big restaurant located in a small road only accessible by walking. It offers most of the Belgian specialities and can be pretty crowded, especially in holidays season. Food is good, fries are awesome and prices are fair considering the position. A good stop if you are visiting Bruxelles and want to taste some local food.

Demasiado masificado, enfocado mayormente al turismo. La comida no está mal, elaboración simple y servicio algo caotico. La relación calidad precio esta por encima de la media.

We ordered the famous mussels, fries, and beer combo. The fries were truly mediocre, the mussels were decent, but definitely not worth waiting in line for. Additionally, we ordered calamari, and it was one of the worst I’ve ever had—it had a thick coating that felt more like pastry. For these prices, it honestly doesn’t even deserve a 4-star rating. Overly famous touristic place.

Bien atendidos y la comida muy buena, sin duda aquí se viene a comer mejillones en todas sus versiones, patatas fritas muy muy buenas. También hemos pedido la ensalada león y los espaguetis león, muy bueno. Gracias leones!

Fuimos a comer y la verdad que la comida muy abundante y sabrosa, el trato del personal fue exquisito, gran variedad de mejillones y frituras típicas. Pedimos un poco de todo y para nuestra sorpresa, los niños tienen un menú a cuenta de la casa muy completo. Son lugar a dudas, lo recomendaré a mis amistades y si vuelvo a la ciudad, repetiré!

No me ha gustado que te obliguen a pedir un plato por comensal. Pero el local es grande y bonito, las raciones buenas, y el camarero que nos atendió, español, muy amable y atento. Igualmente creo que los precios son caros comparados con otros restaurantes cercanos. Probamos los mejillones a la marinera con patatas fritas y las ostras.

특별한 맛을 기대하면 실망해요많이 먹는 그 홍합찜인지 탕에 파슬리를 넣어 독특하지만 홍합의 알은 너무 작아 풍미는 덜합니다.혼자갔고 윗층 바를 배정 받았어요.웨이트리스는 친절하지 않았고 다른 직원들과 수다를 떨었습니다. 전반적인 분위기는 오래된 역사를 간직한듯 한 느낌이었어요

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo : un piatto cozze al sedano, un piatto cozze al formaggio , 1 piatto di fritti di mare , 1 birra e 1 coca cola , 3 patate fritte … 60 euro totaliUnica pecca , non ha nulla per i celiaci né pane né birra 🍺

口コミでは、日本人差別があったりすると言いますが、とっても親切でした。ムール貝は、ハーフサイズを注文しました。それを2人で分けて食べてちょうどいいぐらいです。ポテトには、「ケチャッププリ-ズ」（笑）っと言ったら、「ケチャップ（笑）」っと、言いながらご機嫌で持ってきてくれました。店員さんは、親切。味は、とっても美味しかったです。もう一度、ブルッセルに行く機会があったら、絶対に行きたいお店です。頼むものにもよるのかもしれませんが、私は、どれもこれも、美味しかったです。値段も適正価格。ベルギーでは、コスパはいいと思います。

Plutôt une déception. Le service est relativement rapide et la quantité est là. Mes moules gratinées à l'ail étaient bonnes.Cependant, la nourriture et le prix posent question.- le prix est cher- les frites manquent de goût- la qualité fait penser à du surgelé, comme les frites ou la gaufre, très moyenne- pas de carafe d'eau fournie- L'ambiance au rez-de-chaussée fait un peu emporium...

Brükselin merkezinde oldukça güzel ve kalabalık deniz ürünleri restaurantı. İçerisi oldukça otantik bir mekan. Sadece deniz ürünleri değil farklı et ürünleri, hamburger tarzı ürünler de bulabilirsiniz.Midye ve çiğ gelen deniz kabukluları tabağı güzeldi. Her ne kadar istiridyenin tadı pek huşuma gitmese de. Sunun oldukça iyi. Fiyatlar oldukça pahalı. 3 kişi 155 eur ödedik
