★★★★★9 months agoWe went here twice in one day Stopped in because it looked interesting inside. Sat at the bar where Nathan made us his version of a negroni that he will use in the finals of the compari bartender competition. One of 10 to compete for best in Belgium. It was delicious. Seriously, my new favorite drink. We had a great time talking with him and Stefano. Meeting people like them is why we travel. Definitely recommend. Will return.
