Nice interior with seaview (depending on your table). Staff is correct, food is fresh and well cooked. We had some tapas to start (patatas bravas, garlic shrimps) followed by very good homemade shrimp croquettes and pasta vongole (pasta overcooked, some sand in the vongole but the taste was ok)

We went there with 2 families, 3 young children. The food was good and home-made as far as we could judge (Belgian cooking, burgers, pasta ...). The place is cozy, warm, quite small but with facilities for children, in the summer the terrace must be very nice too. The waitress and cook are very friendly and helpful. We will certainly return.Dear guest,We would thank you to write this beautiful review. It's always nice to read something positive about our restaurant. We appreciate the effort you made to write this comment and hope to welcome you again, on our terrace in the sun.Kind regards,Heleen en Bruno

I was there 2 times with my husband and it was every time very good. The first time we took the Cheeseburgers and then the gambas. The burger was excellent and the gambas too, but they werenât so tender. Also as we came in, it was almost full. They were just 2 tables and it was supposed to be reserved so we had to wait about 30 minutes. Then they gave us a table somewhere else. But the whole evening nobody took placeâ¦that was a little bit strange.

I had the suggestion of the day for lunch, which was a typical dish (vispannetje), albeit with french fries for I guess the tourists. Before there were some olives as well as pumkin soup and bread. The soup was ok, but lacked flavour. The same can be said for the main course, in which the little shrimp were not freshly peeled, and the whole was rather watery. The service was attentive and friendly, and the setting is nice. Plus point is that it was open, even in November. A negative point for small eaters is that you cannot order just a starter.You really think 19 euroâs is too much for what you got?For the price you payed; 19â¬; you got a pumpkin-carrot soup with fresh baked bread and butter, a portion of olives with garlic, a fishermanâs plate with steamed saumon, steamed cod, mussels and FRESHLY PEELED shrimps, a fish "waterzooi" sauce and gratinated with parmesan cheese, french fries âà volontéâ and mayonaise!!! But you still think 19 euroâs is much too expensive for this??? This is so FUNNY!!!! You really make us laugh :-) :-) !!! I do not know what you are used to pay for soup, bread, olives and a fisherman's plate!!!The âwaterzooiâ-sauce, you call it âwateryâ⦠???????And all our starters can be ordered for main course â¦!!!!! Do not lie!!!So please be correct en fair when you put something on Tripadvisor! Certainly when you only pay 19 euroâs for staying in a restaurant!

we had the 5-course set menu and started with two perfect serve gins accompanied by an appetizer with crab and a 'maatje'. Starters were a perfectly seasoned gazpacho with scamorza and bouchot mussels Morrocon style. Mains were correct cooked red bream with belgian caviar and matured rubia gallega with smoked béarnaise. They also present a nice cheese chariot besides the dessert with peach. Coffee comes with all kinds of après desserts. Original winelist at very reasonable prices (try the Garagista from Urugay e.g.).

A bit hidden away in the center of town, this new and young restaurant is a positive addition to the range of restaurants already existing. Fresh market ingredients, limoted menu, young chef,....it seems promising. The prices are not really low, the capacity is somewhat limited which could lead to some waiting time...

We had a gastronomic diner, including wine, voucher for two. Based on the good reviews we decided to try this restaurant at the Belgian coast. What a discovery and what a treat. From the many small one-bite appetizers presented by pairs over the starter through the main dish and the fine dessert we enjoyed one culinary surprise after the next. With every dish we received a clear appealing description of what to expect. Additionally we were presented excellent wines in perfect harmony with each dish and the very friendly sommelier talked us through each wine (which was almost a trip around the world on its own). Wonderfull experience in a nice setting. Worth mentioning are also the freshly baked selection of loafs (about 8 different tastes to choose from) as well as the wide selection of home-made one-bite sweets that came as a surprize to the coffees we ordered to close off a wonderfull lunch.This restaurant deserves a Michelin star ! We will certainly be back !

Visited during quiet lunch time. Service was welcoming and prompt. We've ordered main courses and were treated to a lovely crab/shrimp paste with bread. Great choice of beer and amazing food. We went for a children's crispy chicken, catch of the day -cod with veg and steak with great peppercorn sauce. All tasty and delicious. Highly recommended.

After a long day made longer by a 2.5 hour delay on the channel tunnel we decided enough was enough while filling up with fuel on the E40 half way to Brussels.....we needed to eat. A very quick look on TripAdvisor led us 5km towards the coast to Brasserie Regina and we are so glad we bothered. Atmosphere, service and food was excellent on a cold and wet evening. The owner was very friendly and helpful and only wish was that we could have stayed much longer. We shall make a point of returning.

the restaurant is convenient located a few steps from the coast-tram from Ostend;but parking is also available nearby;we appreciate the very friendly reception and the attentive service of Heidi and Christine;they always take into account special requirements,but even the low-salt fish dishes were very tasteful, thanks to an excellent seasoning mix,this reveals a high professional skill of the chief cook Patrick, giving always such artful presentations, with creativity and excellent variations;the appropriate wines and champagne, were chosen by the sommelier Gino from the Vinotheek, giving a finishing touch to a fantastic meal in a relax atmosphere;
