Restaurant O'Syrie — Restaurant in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode - Sint-Joost-ten-Node

I have been 2x, the first time, the food, service & atmosphere were all very good. But the second time, we arrived close to their closing hour because we came back from a concert at Botanique. We asked if we could still eat and they said yes, and they invited us in. Once I was seated they told me I had 2 minutes to order (!!!), my friend was still parking the car outside so I said I had to wait for him to arrive, but they kept insisting we ordered immediately. We had some grilled mix meat which wasn’t presented as usual, normally it’s a « brochette », that night they served us a few pieces. In the middle of our plate, that asked for us to pay, they said « you have to pay now, because we have to close the cash register, but you can take all your time to finish eating after. ». So we paid… once we paid they came back and said they were closing the restaurant in 5’!! I’m very understanding with restaurants obligations but this was completely dishonest. We asked before entering if it was still ok to eat, they said yes, but actually there was no time. Here it was a succession of pressuring us, to order, to pay, to eat and to leave. We didn’t finish our plates… it felt like we were tricked into having a bad rushed dinner so they could still charge us the full price. It would have been more honest to give us all the conditions in advance so we could have decided knowing how...

Our hotel down the street recommended O’Syrie for dinner, and wow, are we glad we listened! From the amazing service to the lovely environment to the amazing food - the evening was so special! Our waitress suggested the platter to share, letting us know we could do a half portion as it was meant for 4. Five fabulous dips, fries, amazing bread, and a platter of various meats was tastier with each bite! My bf was so overwhelmed with the deliciousness that he stood and hugged the owner!! We will never forget this very special night and will absolutely visit Brussels in the future, if for no other reason than to eat once again at this...

Whether you’re looking for the Syro-Lebanese experience or just hungry for a decent healthy meal, O’Syrie is the place to be: variety of delicious food with a vegetarian option (cold and/or warm) and a friendly generous staff. The quantity was overwhelming yet inviting. I highly recommend the menu (per 4 pers) which you can still adjust to your liking. I almost forgot the presentation… lets just say it was so appealing. As a desert I recommend the halawet jebné with a cup of Syrian tea. All that for a very reasonable price. Thank you guys for your authentic Syro-Lebanese generosity. We’re definitely...
