AI summary of what 2 dish mentions say about the food
The mussels in beer, or moules à la bière, are the unanimous star, delivering a deeply savory, comforting coastal warmth. Overall, the vibe is one of humble, satisfying excellence.
“I ordered the mussels cooked in dark beer — the beer flavour is clear, slightly bitter but very mild, they remain very delicate. Delicious. Small note: the fries here aren't as good as the others I've had in Brussels, but the mussels are so good it doesn't matter.”

An excellent spot for mussels in Brussels — the mussels are exceptional, especially the curry and beer versions, though the fries are average and you need to book in advance.

Moules au Curry et à la Crème
These mussels are a real jewel — flavourful with a slight curry and cream taste, a bit spicy, delicate. You could eat a whole tub of them, and indeed they bring you a tub. Excellent.
