WOWCRAB Brussels — Restaurant in Brussels

Wowcrab absolutely lives up to its name—WOW! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal.

Now, the food… incredible. The crab was fresh, juicy, and cooked to perfection. We tried the WOW platter and it was bursting with flavor—spicy, buttery, and just the right amount of heat. The portions were generous, and everything was served piping hot.

We also loved the sides—corn, potatoes, and sausage that soaked up all that amazing seasoning. Honestly, it’s one of the best seafood experiences I’ve had in a long time.

A very special thank you to our server, Dora, who made the night even better with her warm personality, helpful suggestions, and top-notch service. She helped us crack the lobsters! 🤣 She truly went above and beyond!

Whether you’re a die-hard seafood fan or just looking to treat yourself to something special, Wowcrab is a must-visit. We’ll...

IN SHORT. A special experience

LOCATION. The restaurant is very simple but clean and tidy. At each table you will find: gloves, aprons, “tools” for the fish. Lots of color. The restaurant is located in the small gallery on the street before Rue Neuve.

SERVICE. The service is extraordinary. The girls in the dining room are kind, smiling, professional. They explain the menu and the philosophy of the restaurant in an excellent way.

FOOD. First of all: it is NOT a classic restaurant. The specialty is the “COMBO” menu: a lot of fish is “emptied” on the table. crab, lobster, shrimp, etc. All with a sauce of your choice. There are no cutlery and you eat with your hands. The fish is enough good.

PRICE. The “Combo” for two people starts at around 60 euros (for 2 people). I tasted the Combo at 89,00 euro. Adequate for 2 persons.

CONCLUSIONS. I understand the philosophy of the place (a bit like Louisiana style) but I was not...

We came to Wow Crab after deciding the cockroach infested (seriously!) down the road wasn’t for us.

This place reminded me of two of my favourite places that I’ve eaten seafood like this before: Singapore & New York. The food is served onto your tablecloth, you have bibs to stop yourself getting covered in the sauce (go garlic!!) but the food is delicious.

The service was also great, special shout out to our server Dora who was great and advised on what to get, which was perfect for the 4 of us.

If you’re passing by heading in the direction of Wolf, stop short of it and come to Wow Crab instead. Better food, no craziness trying to get a table and no cockroaches....
