The story
Toucan sur Mer is a seafood restaurant in Brussels at Avenue Louis Lepoutre 17, Ixelles, and it earned a score of 13 from Gault&Millau in 2026.
The kitchen revisits French classics with a light touch of authenticity, mixing tradition and creativity around seasonal produce. Seafood platters, oysters and fish soup anchor the menu, with whole grilled fish and a fish and chips tartare alongside. Aged meat and beef tartare cover the non-seafood side of the carte. Caviar comes from Caspian Tradition, a Belgian caviar company, and the vanilla from Pure Vanilla, a Malagasy producer certified organic and fair trade.
Gault&Millau describes the place as chic but relaxed, with discreet elegance and an exceptional selection of shellfish. Guests can eat at the bar, in the bright dining room or on the lively terrace.
