I had the chance to stop in Ciney and try this nice restaurant in the centre of the town. We love Greek food. We had as starter festa and olives in addition to a plate with two pieces of bread with tomato and mozzarella cheese. Then we had broschette of lam and with three different meat (lam, chicken and pork). Well done on the grill and tasty. Water and one glass of wine for 44 euros. Really not bad. Nice service by the young waiters. Recommended for a trip out in the weekend.

We were here on busy Sunday afternoon with our Luxembourgish friends. Restaurant was very crowded and we had to wait some 15 minutes to get a table.
Probably it was too busy day. Scampi tagliatelli was really good, but pizza had been too short time on oven, some parts of cheese were not melted and it was not at all crispy (nor thin).
Also service was rather bored and tired. No smiles.

If you like meat, this is definitely a restaurant for you. There is a wide choice of all kind of meat dishes; meat is grilled by the cook at the open fire near the bar. Portions are really huge! Stay out if you are vegetarian!

We ate here on a Saturday evening.
THE GOOD POINTS
Polite service.
Nice Jasmine tea.
Family friendly.
Clean toilets.
THE NOT SO GOOD POINTS
Very bland food lacking flavour - chicken with cashew nuts very overcooked, tofu was overboiled, vegetables were either not fresh or also overcooked.
Service was very slow even though the restaurant was not full. We waited over an hour for our starters.
WILL WE GO BACK?
Very unlikely.

This place has potential, but it just doesn't meet it.
The food is good quality, but the prices are very high. Ice creams and a drink for five (including three children) came to over 50 euros.
The service was also below par. It took them three attempts to get one of our ice cream orders right (language wasn't the issue here, we speak French), and our request for a small pot of milk to accompany tea was met with dumbfounded looks and the arrival of a plastic container of cream for coffee. We really had to break it down for them (and one did eventually appear).
And if you thought the restaurant was expensive, check out the shop!

I had dinner here with my family on a Saturday evening. The decor is a little kitsch (faux roman statues and murals), but it was clean and pleasant enough.
PROS
Very good quality pizzas - lovely thin base, not overcooked, and well seasoned. Very good size.
Prompt and courteous service - one of the wine glasses broke as the waitress was serving the wine and glasses, and they didn't hesitate to move us to a different table and reserve our drinks in case any stray shards of glass
Very nice ice cream - couldn't say whether it was home made, but very nice nonetheless
CONS
We asked for some bread and olives, and only olives arrived. But if we had filled up on bread, we probably couldn't have managed the pizzas.
WILL BE GO BACK?
Definitely.

Je suis arrivé là par hasard et bien m'en a pris. Les restaurants un peu originaux sont finalement assez rares et celui-ci en est un. La déco un peu "tendance-rétro" et le côté presque familial (à peine 6 ou 7 tables dans une petite salle) m'ont beaucoup plu. J'ai aussi beaucoup apprécié la musique d'ambiance faite de tubes essentiellement francophones des années 80 (je ne saurai dire si c'est chaque soir ainsi). La carte est très réduite et uniquement faite de viandes (steak, entrecôte ou hamburger). La viande était bonne même si j'ai déjà goûté mieux. Les frites en accompagnement étaient délicieuses. La patronne passe à la fin pour offrir un petit digestif à toutes les tables, ce qui laisse évidemment sur une très bonne impression.
Dans l'ensemble, il s'agit donc sans doute d'une très bonne adresse dans le coin.

Panya Chaiwari, head of "Thai House" you will discover its cuisine. Some preparations take time to give you the true flavor, be tolerant for the wait could be slower than in a conventional restaurant. The Thai cuisine is world famous. Whether spicy or rather mild, harmony is the main guide that is found behind each dish. Thai cuisine is essentially a marriage of secular influences of the East and West seamlessly combined into a single entity Thai. The characteristics of Thai food depend on the preparer, for whom it is made, for what occasion, and where it is prepared. Dishes can be refined and adapted to all tastes. Originally, Thai cooking reflected the characteristics of a lifestyle near the water. A Thai meal is taken with a fork and a spoon. Even a simple dish like fried rice with pork, white rice or fried duck, are served in small pieces, such as the knife is not necessary. The spoon is used to carry food to the mouth. Happy travels in the land of smiles.

We ate there Saturday evening. We booked a table. The atmosphere is really Thai, all the decoration makes you visiting this country.
We ordered two soups, those were excellent. Then a appetizer to share of Thai specialities, really common for 14€. Then, the sweet & sour chicken and the curry manam chicken, the first was really tasteless but the second was delicious.
However, the price is not at all in line with Thai food. 14€ for appetizers, 18 for chicken in sauce,... Those main ingredients are not expensive. We had to wait 1 hour for our soup and one hour for the main plate, in total 3hours. 87,50 € in a Thai restaurant without alcohol or dessert
But the service is good, the boss does care about you, Not the waitress who was not professional at all.
We don't really recommend this restaurant which may have increased the price due to the high ranking in TripAdvisor (unjustified).
