Comme Chez Soi (Pl. Rouppe 23, 1000 Bruxelles, Belgium)
Comme Chez Soi has held onto its 3-star rating for over 27 years. The restaurant’s signature menu consists of a 6-course meal, although there is also an a la carte option.

Sea Grill (Rue du Fossé aux Loups 47, 1000 Bruxelles, Belgium)
As the name of this 2-Michelin Star restaurant implies, outstanding fish and seafood dishes feature heavily on the menu.
