Customer Reviews
A cute neighborhood restaurant. My husband said the mussels in white wine and cream sauce were as good as the ones he had in Brugge, Belgium. Our compliments to the chef. The cheese plate was perfect for 2, the bread was crusty on the outside and soft within. We split the entree which was beef in a brown ale sauce, which was good... oh and the French Fries? Don't forget the herb mayo that went with it. We had to take a walk around the neighborhood after that meal!
Point Brugge has been our go-to brunch spot since our second date three years ago. The cocktails are delicious, and the food is typically divine! It's been a few months since we've been able to go out to eat together, so we went to the place that always wows us. Unfortunately, today, the experience was disappointing. The menu was lackluster, with the special just being a chicken sandwich with lettuce, tomato, and chipotle mayo. We ordered the croque monsieur and the Belgian dip, which were fine but uninspired. At least I had good company, and the cocktails were delicious! Highly recommend the Hastings 2.0 and the Black Manhattan.
Excellent service, attentive, friendly but not intrusive. We had the red curry mussels served with plenty of crusty bread, perfect for enjoying all the sauce. The “small” portion was still quite large and enough for my daughter and I to share. The cheese board was also delicious. They have a nice, interesting selection of cocktails. My Brugge Old Fashioned was very good. Will be a new favorite spot for us.
Lovely experience! Got there before 12p on a Saturday and they were able to seat us immediately. We sat outside (1 of only 3 tables). The red curry moules with crusty bread and frites are a necessity (IYKYK). We tried something different (shrimp po'boy special and small house salad with salmon) and were happy we did. The po'boys remoulade (red pepper and garlic?!?!) was sensational (their sauces are always top tier), and the salmon was cooked to crispy medium perfection. Dessert was homemade cheesecake with Belgium chocolate drizzle. Just a good "YUM" all the way.
This is a solid, dependable neighbourhood bistro. You’ll enjoy the food and drinks here. It will not blow you away. But you wouldn’t dislike it either. We visited on a week night around 7 PM as a group of four, and we had to wait for about 20 minutes to grab a table. they don’t really accept reservations, but the waiting wasn’t too bad. We started with the mussels and fries which is what they are known for, and it was pretty good. The fries were crispy and the mussels were cooked well. The standard for me was the Thai coconut curry sauce, which accompanied it, and they also gave us some good quality crusty bread, which was amazing for soaking up all that curry. We also had the croque monsieur which was pretty underwhelming to be honest, but that could also be a fault with the dish itself a
