   This was an Easter brunch. A good variety of entrees on the menu. Food presentation was very good. The drinks selection with special mixed drinks. The beer selection was adequate and excellent quality of the beers that were on tap. I would have preferred more Chimay’s on tap but would still rate the selection excellent. Other locations for Taste of Belgium do have a wider variety. It is a fun airy and sunny atmosphere.

   Too noisy with too loud music to have a conversation. The tables were too small as bumping elbows with neighboring tables. The food was decent but the ambiance poor. I like to eat somewhere more comfortable.

   Good food. Had seven people, and they provided us with a separate room, which was very nice. My mom had a difficult time hearing, and they were able to turn the music volume down, which was also appreciated.

   The chicken and waffles were delicious. We were in the front room where it was quite chilly. The waiter needed to be reminded of the refills he was going to get and then the receipts he said were coming, but all in all we had a pleasant dinner.

   Super cute place, one meal was cold though and they didn’t have anything to heat it up.

   Hi Susan, the cute atmosphere is appreciated! However, it's unfortunate to hear that one meal was cold, and there were no options to heat it. This feedback will be used to improve our service. #respectthewaffle - Taste of Belgium Team

   We had reservations for a party of 5 on Saturday. They sat us at a HUGE booth. The music was so loud & we were seated so far from each other it was very hard to have a conversation either each other. We asked twice for the music to be turned down. It would get turned down but then slowly get louder again. We had a vegetarian in our party (part of why we chose this place). We couldn’t get the vegetarian menu; had to scan a QR code but the code didn’t work. Finally went to website & pulled hp the vegetarian menu. She wanted to order the pepper onion crepe. The waiter was very confused and couldn’t find it on his ordering device. He kept having to ‘go get help’. Finally our guest face up & just ordered a salad. I ordered a Diet Coke but kept getting Coke Zero (there is a taste difference). Again gave up on this as well. Food took awhile to come but was just as ordered and good. We tried to order dessert but that was not easy either. Asked about something I saw in the case & waiter couldn’t tell me what it was. Finally another waitress explained it to me. I asked if we could have desert menus. Waiter brought one for the whole table but we were ‘miles’ apart. I asked if we could possibly have more than one menu. Had to go get it. Two people ordered regular cheesecake. Waiter struggled with his device again. Had to leave to get help. Finally came back & said there wasn’t any regular cheesecake so they orders strawberry. Waiter turned to leave to put in the order & I had to tell him we weren’t done ordering. Test of the party orders. Deserts came. Strawberry cheesecake was horrible!! But at that point we were done. Paid. Asked for a receipt which I never got. We left.
