The story
La Buvette, a modern French kitchen at chaussée d'Alsemberg 108 in Saint-Gilles, Brussels, was listed as Michelin Recommended in 2026. The restaurant serves a single tasting menu, priced at 68 €, in a listed Art Deco house.
The kitchen combines French and Belgian classics with a more international touch. Chefs work with local, seasonal produce and aim for modern dishes with delicate flavours. A vegetarian option is available on request, and the menu page notes gluten-free and lactose-free options.
The menu page lists courses such as marinated and grilled mackerel with confit lemon and artichoke, and red mullet cooked over embers with white asparagus and Flanders reinette apple. Lamb saddle comes with aniseed, parsley root and broccolini. Dessert is a milk and vanilla tart with pistachio crumble and Gariguette strawberry sorbet.
The room is warm, with outdoor seating and a casual dress code. Wine pairings come in three, four or five glasses for 36 €, 48 € or 60 €, and a non-alcohol pairing costs 36 €. A cheese course can be added for 15 €, drawn from the cellars of Bernard and Jean-François Antony. The Green Guide awarded La Buvette 3 Radishes in 2026.
