Jean-Claude Van Damme
Jean-Claude Van Varenberg (born 18 October 1960), professionally known as Jean-Claude Van Damme and abbreviated to JCVD, is a Belgian actor, martial artist, screenwriter, film producer and director best known for his martial-arts action films.
He is also a character whose gaffes and provocative or eccentric statements have often landed him in trouble. However, he remains a unique personality, much loved by Belgians. Whenever he travels to Brussels, he always eats at “Chez Léon”.

You gotta try the mussels and frites here, seriously, just order them without even looking at the menu! If you think that's not enough, just grab some frites and waffles as a snack between lunch and dinner. I'd suggest having a light dinner here and then heading out to enjoy some more Belgian beers in the city. The staff are totally used to tourists and they've got multilingual menus, so you won't have any trouble at all.

If you’re heading to Brussels, Chez Léon is essentially the "Grand Central Station" of Belgian dining. It is arguably the most famous spot in the city for moules-frites, and while its location on Rue des Bouchers, walking into Chez Léon feels like stepping into a well-oiled machine that hasn't stopped since 1893. It’s loud, fast-paced, and massive—spread across several interconnected historic houses.It’s not a "romantic candlelit dinner" spot. It’s a "clinking beer glasses and steaming pots of mussels" spot. Expect paper placemats, brisk service, and a lively mix of tourists and locals.The waiters are professionals great service no wait for the meals they are generally friendly if you catch their eye.The Gold Standard for BasicsYou go here for one thing: The Mussels.Order the Moules Spéciales (mussels steamed with celery, onions, and butter). They are consistently fresh because the turnover here is so high—they go through tons of mussels a day.They are classic Belgian style—thick, double-fried, and perfectly salty.If you aren't in the mood for a giant pot of mussels, try the Mussels au Gratin (baked with garlic butter and cheese) or their Tomato Crevette (shrimp-stuffed tomato).They brew their own light, refreshing beer called Léon which is specifically designed to cut through the richness of the butter and fries.The "Formule Léon": This is one of the best deals in central Brussels. For around €15–€18, you usually get a solid portion of mussels, fries, and a beer.A huge perk if you’re traveling with family—children under 12 often eat for free when accompanied by an adult.You want the quintessential "Mussels in Brussels" experience without the stress of being ripped off by a low-quality tourist trap. It’s reliable, historic, and fun.You want a quiet, intimate meal or "fine dining" service. It can feel a bit like a factory during peak hours.It’s right next to the Grand Place, so it’s perfect for a meal after seeing the square. If you want to avoid the heaviest crowds, try going for an early lunch or a late dinner (they stay open late!).

At first, we were unsure because the Google rating was low and the restaurant is right in the middle of a tourist area. We didn’t plan to eat here, but it was late and raining, so we decided to give it a try and we’re so glad we did!When in Brussels, of course we ordered the mussels & frites and mashed potatoes with sausages. Everything was delicious. The mussels were fresh and flavorful, the fries were crispy, and the sausages with mash were comforting and tasty. I paired it with their LEON beer and it was perfect together.The staff was friendly and fast, which we appreciated. The ambiance was cozy and warm, especially nice on a rainy night. It ended up being a great experience. Definitely give it a try!

Мы были в этом кафе два вечера подряд.В первый вечер всё было просто замечательно: еда вкусная, подача красивая, обслуживание быстрое и приятное. Нам очень понравилось, поэтому мы решили вернуться снова.К сожалению, во второй вечер впечатление испортилось. Мы заказали блюдо по фото из меню, но нам принесли заказ в неполной комплектации — не хватало мидий и соуса. Визуально и по наполнению это совсем не соответствовало тому, что было представлено на фотографии. Как минимум официант должен был нам об этом предупредить.Считаем, что при такой цене ожидание и реальность должны совпадать. Очень жаль, потому что после первого визита впечатление было отличное.

A la lecture des avis, j'ai pas mal hésité mais on s est lancé quand même. Agréablement surpris par le lieu qui d'un point de vue décoration est tres sympaToilettes propres (début de service). Serveurs sympathiques, service rapide. Avons pris menus soupe bien chaude et bien bonne, salade de lardons juste tièdes pour les lardons, auraient mérités un chouia de chaleur.Plat poisson tres bien.Desserts chocolat et crème caramel tout à fait corrects. Avec une boisson, le tout pour 70€ (2 adultes et 1 menu enfant)En plein centre-ville, franchement rien à dire

최고였어요!! 현지 분위기도 엄청 잘 나고, 약간 가족식당같은 느낌이에요.음식은 완벽합니다!! 홍합 그라탕, 홍합탕, 피시엔칩스, 소시지랑 베이컨 있는 메뉴랑 맥주 2종류까지 골고루 시켜서 셰어했는데 어느 하나 아쉬운 메뉴는 없었어요.다만 브뤼셀 대부분이 그렇듯 프랑스어와 네덜란드어 메뉴판뿐이고, 영어도 적혀있지 않습니다.. 당황하지 마시고, 메뉴판 또는 식탁보에 있는 큐알코드 찍으시면 돼요..!! 웨이터분들은 모두 영어 유창하십니다!웨이터분도 엄청 유쾌하시고, 특히 한국인이라고 하니까 i love Korea 배지를 보여주시면서 재미있게 말 걸어 주셨습니다ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ아기, 강아지도 맘껏 출입할 수 있고 특징적인 약간의 소란도 다 허용되는 분위기입니다. 동시에 고급지고 조용조용한 분위기를 선호하시는 분은 살짝 뒤로가기... 그러나 저는 오히려 활기차고 화목한 공동체 느낌 속에서의 식사라 아주 즐거웠어요..!완전히 저녁시간은 아주 붐비는 편이라, 점심시간과 저녁시간 사이에 이른 저녁을 먹으러 찾아갔고, 웨이팅도 없었습니다! 저는 시키지 않았지만, 런치세트도 오후 5시까지 주문 가능하니 참고하세요..!

Mais au-delà de ça, sa gentillesse et son attitude bienveillante font toute la différence.Il met à l’aise, prend le temps avec les clients et donne vraiment envie de revenir.Un service de grande qualité, comme on aimerait en voir plus souvent.Merci beaucoup Yamal pour cette très belle expérience.

Generalmente, el restaurante estaba muy bien decorado y con un gran servicio. Daban pan para acompañar, el cual también estaba muy sabroso.Los camareros eran muy amables y eran rápidos. Es una buena zona para comer, pero estaría mejor que cambiarán un plato en específico.La primera comida estaba bastante buena, era sopa con puerro y le doy un 8/10. Sin embargo, la segunda comida, que era salchicha con una especie de puré raro y vegetales, no estaba tan buena. Le doy un 5/10, ya que lo único que me gustó fue la salchicha, y los vegetales estuvieron un poco malos, pero comí algunos. El puré era lo peor del plato, ya que no tenía una sabor disfrutable, sinceramente.Lo demás, como el postre estaba muy bueno y lo disfruté mucho.Eso es todo, adiós.

It ended up being a great experience. Definitely give it a try!

青口Moules一如既往的稳定好吃😋，小朋友们喜欢。店员态度两极化，有个店员在餐厅营业柜台吃饭，我们点餐他说有人会来接待，吃完了收拾，直接扭脸说请稍等。后面是另一位亚裔服务员服务我们，非常满意。同一家点差异如此之大，可见管理之难度。。。

Our first stop for food in Brussels. We were very happy with the food. Service was very efficient. Dishes were pretty tasty. We had lasgna, french onion soup, amongst other dishes. We would definitely recommend to others

Мы были в этом кафе два вечера подряд.В первый вечер всё было просто замечательно: еда вкусная, подача красивая, обслуживание быстрое и приятное. Нам очень понравилось, поэтому мы решили вернуться снова.К сожалению, во второй вечер впечатление испортилось. Мы заказали блюдо по фото из меню, но нам принесли заказ в неполной комплектации — не хватало мидий и соуса. Визуально и по наполнению это совсем не соответствовало тому, что было представлено на фотографии. Как минимум официант должен был нам об этом предупредить.Считаем, что при такой цене ожидание и реальность должны совпадать. Очень жаль, потому что после первого визита впечатление было отличное.

A la lecture des avis, j'ai pas mal hésité mais on s est lancé quand même. Agréablement surpris par le lieu qui d'un point de vue décoration est tres sympaToilettes propres (début de service). Serveurs sympathiques, service rapide. Avons pris menus soupe bien chaude et bien bonne, salade de lardons juste tièdes pour les lardons, auraient mérités un chouia de chaleur.Plat poisson tres bien.Desserts chocolat et crème caramel tout à fait corrects. Avec une boisson, le tout pour 70€ (2 adultes et 1 menu enfant)En plein centre-ville, franchement rien à dire

Locale spazioso e turistico però adatto a comitive e con cibo belga... se si è a Bruxelles vale la pena andarci...Birra di proprietà ottima...

ムール貝料理全て美味しいですが、蒸し料理が好みです。普通のと白ワイン蒸しどちらとも貝の出汁が出ていて美味しかったです。

Mi è sembrata "una catena di montaggio" ed anche molto cara..... il classico ristorante turistico. Cameriri molto molto disponibili ma non credo ci tornerei e non posso consigliarlo.....

Lekker gegeten hier. Uiensoep, "stoemp" met worst en chocolade toetje voor €23.--. Helemaal prima. Chez Leon is gewoon een must als je in Brussel bent

최고였어요!! 현지 분위기도 엄청 잘 나고, 약간 가족식당같은 느낌이에요.음식은 완벽합니다!! 홍합 그라탕, 홍합탕, 피시엔칩스, 소시지랑 베이컨 있는 메뉴랑 맥주 2종류까지 골고루 시켜서 셰어했는데 어느 하나 아쉬운 메뉴는 없었어요.다만 브뤼셀 대부분이 그렇듯 프랑스어와 네덜란드어 메뉴판뿐이고, 영어도 적혀있지 않습니다.. 당황하지 마시고, 메뉴판 또는 식탁보에 있는 큐알코드 찍으시면 돼요..!! 웨이터분들은 모두 영어 유창하십니다!웨이터분도 엄청 유쾌하시고, 특히 한국인이라고 하니까 i love Korea 배지를 보여주시면서 재미있게 말 걸어 주셨습니다ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ아기, 강아지도 맘껏 출입할 수 있고 특징적인 약간의 소란도 다 허용되는 분위기입니다. 동시에 고급지고 조용조용한 분위기를 선호하시는 분은 살짝 뒤로가기... 그러나 저는 오히려 활기차고 화목한 공동체 느낌 속에서의 식사라 아주 즐거웠어요..!완전히 저녁시간은 아주 붐비는 편이라, 점심시간과 저녁시간 사이에 이른 저녁을 먹으러 찾아갔고, 웨이팅도 없었습니다! 저는 시키지 않았지만, 런치세트도 오후 5시까지 주문 가능하니 참고하세요..!

J’ai mangé chez Léon à Bruxelles et je tenais vraiment à laisser un commentaire pour souligner l’excellent service de Yamal.C’est un serveur d’un grand professionnalisme : attentif, organisé, efficace et toujours souriant. Mais au-delà de ça, sa gentillesse et son attitude bienveillante font toute la différence.Il met à l’aise, prend le temps avec les clients et donne vraiment envie de revenir.Un service de grande qualité, comme on aimerait en voir plus souvent.Merci beaucoup Yamal pour cette très belle expérience.

It was my first time visiting this place and it was absolutely amazing! Food came in big portions and tasted really good as well.What impressed me most is the way they decorated their place. Every corner is perfectly photogenic which describes well about Brussel.Really nice to have lunch here. Of course I will definitely come back again :)

Generalmente, el restaurante estaba muy bien decorado y con un gran servicio. Daban pan para acompañar, el cual también estaba muy sabroso.Los camareros eran muy amables y eran rápidos. Es una buena zona para comer, pero estaría mejor que cambiarán un plato en específico.La primera comida estaba bastante buena, era sopa con puerro y le doy un 8/10. Sin embargo, la segunda comida, que era salchicha con una especie de puré raro y vegetales, no estaba tan buena. Le doy un 5/10, ya que lo único que me gustó fue la salchicha, y los vegetales estuvieron un poco malos, pero comí algunos. El puré era lo peor del plato, ya que no tenía una sabor disfrutable, sinceramente.Lo demás, como el postre estaba muy bueno y lo disfruté mucho.Eso es todo, adiós.

İçerisi tatlı bir mekan. Türkseniz midye tadı bence bizim damak tadımıza göre değil. Bizimkinin içinden yengeç çıktı ama söylenine göre bu normal bir şeymiş. Biz yiyemedik maalesef.
