Chez Leon is a friendly, busy Belgium restaurant, close to Grand Place. It may have menu's with pictures, but the food was fabulous and service efficient and friendly. We liked it so much we even went to their outlet in Paris.
moules and loads of frites!!! washed down by a beer or two. of course! Leave a Comment

 Léon, Brussels by ATLC An amazingly big and busy place. In fact, I think it seats a few hundred people, but you don't realise that when you go in. Up a few short stairs, on various levels, people eat in reasonable privacy and groups of 10 to even 40 can be seated semi-separately and still not bother other guests. We were seated somewhere at the top/back of the restaurants and passing many tables I saw most people ate cooked mussels, succulent steaks, Belgian Fries and other goodies. Service was quick, friendly, very attentive and the food was excellent!
Tomato filled with shrimp for starter, choice of steak or cooked mussels for main course and choice of crème caramel, chocolate mousse or a freshly made Brussels Waffle with cream for dessert.

This restaurant is said to have the best mussels in Brussels, and indeed they are great. You can have them cooked in many different ways and they are always fresh. Besides the mussels , they have all traditional Belgian dishes. I had the "Formule Leon menu" : Portion Mussels special + French fries + 1 beer Maes. For just 14.50€ I had an excellent lunch. The restaurant is always verý busy but the service is good and fast.
Mussels with french fries and a wonderful beer.

 enjoying mussels with friends from the UK by richiecdisc This is one touristy restaurant worth going to and remains a bit of a Brussels institution. Mussels are their main attraction and if you are looking to try them in Belgium (and by all means you should!), this is as good a place as any to do it. Their menus are even shaped like a mussel. To be honest I did not make it there on my last trip to town but on my visit in 1997 I was surprised at how economical it was, at least at lunchtime. I'm sure that prices have gone up since then and with the devaluation of the dollar I imagine I might not be as blown away by the price of a set lunch menu but that is always one thing to look out for when eating in European big cities.
I had a set lunch menu of mussels with Belgian frites that came with a soup and even a beer was included in the price. I looked online and did not see a set menu that included mussels (their signature food) but maybe they have it as a black board special so keep an eye out for them.

by LysDor Ok, Ok I must admit that their standards have switched a bit towards tourirms -which not good!! B U T they still have excellent mussels (see list on the left * Click to enlarge!(from aåril to september-as an unwritten rulöe) and fish dishes: my favourite: *Moules à l'escargot* and *Sole à l'Ostendaise*. ............... Meat lovers will find juicy steaks to please their palate: my favourite here 'Steak au poivre vert flambé crème'. ............. Do check their newly updated "fun" website (Link below)! .............

 Yum Yum! by Nice2004 Although this restaurant might seem like a tourist trap it really is one of the best places in Brussels for 'moules'. Kids meals are free and there are also plenty of other options for non mussel eaters. Prices have always seemed very reasonable to me. The restaurant is always busy and popular and definitely recommended.

 Bea and Caro and Mussels and Frites by sabsi Popular Place in the Rue de Bouchers, the "food street" of Brussels.

 FISHERMEN by eden_teuling THIS IS PROBALY THE BEST KNOWN mussel-restaurant of belgium......YES, OF BELGIUM. Gigantic large, several floors but always full of guests who have found their way to this place....... You will hear FRENCH and FLEMISH because the Locals love coming there too! Fast service and enormous pots of steaming mussels, prepared in dozens of different ways are filling the air with mouthwatering scents...
Although I love fishdishes....I have to confess that I don't like Mussels....so I have never been there....... Leave a Comment Theme: SeafoodAddress: Beenhouwersstraat 18 BrusselsPhone: 02/511 14 15Directions: Near The Grote Markt...Website: www.brussels.be
