The story
Jaco sits at Chaussée de Waterloo 1372 in Uccle, Brussels, where the kitchen cooks Italian Contemporary dishes and earned a Gault&Millau score of 13 in 2026. The restaurant also carries a Michelin Recommended mention for 2026.
The restaurant describes its cooking as authentic Italian, with every dish built on carefully selected produce imported from Italy. Gault&Millau names chefs Francesco de Vita and Dario Trimigno in its entry for the house. The menu balances simplicity and modern technique, so the Italian base stays easy to recognise.
The dining room mixes vintage and contemporary touches in a hushed, personal setting. Gault&Millau describes it as modern luxury with vintage accents, and the same building houses a delicatessen and a bar. In warm weather, two large terraces with good light give guests outdoor seating. A separate space, Jaco Verde, can be fully privatised for up to 20 guests.
