Best European Restaurants in Brookland / Brentwood

Great dinner in a wonderful space. Will definitely be back.

First visit to see my stepdaughter in DC. The restaurant is a lttle off the beaten path, small and relatively intimate. There was a separate room with a large group celebrating so it was noisy. We all found the food delicious. Boys had the veal chop, my wife had the branzino, my daughter had the ravioli and I the pork tenderloin. The table shared tortellini. The wine I chose from the menu they did not have and substituted another unfamiliar to me. The waiter seemed to be having a bad day so service was average. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our meals and would recommend for the food.

The food is delicious. Some of the best on Capitol Hill, possibly in all DC. Also, Belga has recently renovated inside so it's easier to hear your dining companions.

Had Sunday brunch and it was great. Glad we had made a reservation though as it was busy. Very reasonably priced food and good atmosphere. Enjoyed the music playlist too!

What a treasure this long time neighborhood restaurant is. Portuguese, French and Italian classics, lovingly prepared and reasonably priced. Look for the octopus dishes, the sardines, and the Portuguese sausage. Perfect place to go after a walk in Brookside Hardens
