Brussels Bistro

Top notch spot. Plenty of good beers and great food. Don't get a beer you know live a little. I got the beef bourguignon with potato croquettes. The bourguignon was fantastic. Rich and flavorful and super filling. Definitely had to take a nap after. Plenty of good European beers to choose from. Also a lot of other good looking dishes. I'll have to try some other when I come back.

The big hit was the Chilean sea bass. It came in parchment paper with finely juilenned veggies. I don't know what they did to the veggies but they were were excellent.The hangar steak was tasty but oddly they give you a pad of herbed butter to put on the steak. I would have preferred to have that come to the table melting over the steak instead you had yo cut the cold butter and put it on the steak before you ate it . This didn't give the butter enough time to melt so you end up eating a piece of steak with a piece of cold butter on it - not ideal but still tastyThe beer list is great - so many Belgian style beers I've never heard of and you can do a flight of 4 for $18.Finally the mussels were alittle average - ordered with cream and garlic sauce and the flavor was a little underwhelming.

A fantastic place to grab dinner before a show at the Laguna Beach Playhouse. If you like mussels and Brussels food, this is the place to go. They are an extensive menu, but we ordered a couple of fries and mussels dish. All are very savory. We added a side of pasta which complimented the dish perfectly. We also ordered the bacon wrapped brie, which was fantastic. Also, the salmon dish was very good. They have a decent line list as well as a full bar. That makes some pretty good drinks.Highly recommend if you are in the area.

I highly recommend this place, we were able to get a reservation for five people the week before our friend's birthday. Food comes out very fresh and pretty quick, but that did not diminish the quality of the food! I highly recommend starting with the escargot and the baked brie, they were absolutely fantastic and came with a wonderful crispy baguette. As for the food, we decided to share multiple plates of food. We had the boef bourginion (great flavor and we added the pasta on the side), the cream and garlic mussels (incredibly succulent and oh so worth it), the marinier mussels (not as good as the cream, but still good!), the mac and cheese (an absolute MUST try, it was so good), and the fries with all of their sauces. I also highly recommend their drinks (all of them) as they are incredibly well balanced and paired well with all of our food! This place is a must for birthdays, they celebrate you and make you feel incredibly special. I would come back in a heartbeat!

Visited Brussels bistro after maybe 10 years and nothing had changed (other than the prices). Great selection of Belgian beers and signature cocktails. Great delicious food and a great cozy atmosphere. I had their IPA beer with 9% alcohol and their French baguette with butter. The I had their famous pork shoulder for my main course with fingerling po. To be honest was a bit underwhelmed with the pork but tried my wife's burger and it was delish! Afterwards around 10, they cleared out the tables and brought the DJ equipment out but we already had decided to leave.

Came in for dinner on a Friday night and had an amazing meal. The atmosphere inside is warm, cozy, and comfortable. The service was quick, friendly and attentive. We got the bacon wrapped Brie and it was phenomenal with the crispy baguette and side of honey. We also had the mussels with the creamy garlic sauce - it was so yummy and a generous portion of mussels. The fries it came with were cooked to a perfect crunchy crisp. We'll definitely be back to try more dishes!

My boyfriend and I went here on a Saturday afternoon and we were able to be seated instantly. The servers were very quick to ask what they could get started for us, and our food was brought out shortly after we ordered, with our appetizer first, then our entrees.- Oysters: Delicious, very fresh and plump. Was a great way to start off our meal- Carbonara: Creamy, yummy. Nothing too special but it was still good.- Burger: Tasty but bread was too crispy and hard to bite in my opinion. I did not really enjoy the mixed greens but I think it was just the dressing that I wasn't a fan of. Other than that I think the burger was pretty good.Seating was outside, shaded by umbrellas. At times the sun would move directly to my face but that had nothing to do with the service and I think I just sat in a bad spot. The total was a little bit on the pricier side for what the food was but was also understandable because we were in Laguna Beach. Overall, I liked it here but would only come back for maybe a quick brunch before the beach.

Went here on a busy Mother's Day and was seated pretty quickly. Off the bat, service felt kind of slow. Granted it was a Mother's Day. My finally got a flight of ales followed with some single orders. Overall pretty good I think.When it comes to the food, overall I'd say the food was pretty great. My favorite bite was probably the mushroom soup with the puff pastry. My entree, pork shank, was pretty good, but felt like a lot of the same flavors. I can't complain about the amount of meat I got, but I couldn't finish it because it got pretty salty and heavy over the course of eating it.Where I have to dock points is near the end of the service. We needed some boxes and the check and it took like 10-15 minutes and asking two servers to get those boxes even though we were sat as close to the servers as possible. It felt weird that servers we asked for boxes kept passed us by multiple times without getting them. But, you chock it up to a busy day.

Outstanding service and food. The owner, Pierre came to our table and introduced himself and made us feel at home in this cozy little place. Our server, Jeraldo was amazing & the food was delicious.We will be back soon.

This was probably the busiest restaurant in downtown SC, so make sure you make a reservation! The place is quaint and the food is delicious. I enjoyed the smoked salmon and shrimp fettuccini, and this might sound insane, but my only complaint is that it had TOO much smoked salmon. Service was excellent, and I feel like you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I'm trying the mussels and fries next time for sure!
