Reviews Summary
Graanmarkt 13 offers a refined dining experience with creative, high-quality dishes, particularly praised for its use of fresh ingredients and unique concept that blends dining with fashion and art. While many commend the food and the trendy atmosphere, some find the prices steep for the portion sizes and have encountered issues with slow or inattentive service during busy periods. The restaurant also boasts a notable wine list and a beautiful setting, making it a memorable, though potentially pricey, outing.
"I am slightly baffled by the negative reviews. This is refined brasserie food in a tasteful space. The food is not cheap, but it represents value considering the level of execution and the setting. The person serving our group of 5 could not have been more patient or delightful."

"We visit the restaurant for a dinner with our friends.
Food was great and prices were reasonable.
Since they base their menu on Belgian cuisine, I was surprised their selection of beers was basically limited to Stella, I couldn’t pair my food with it.
The selection of wines by glass was also very limited, a couple of options per each wine segment, but it was well done and could be was easily paired with food they serve.
They also have a nice selection if aperitifs: cocktails, mocktails and sparkling wine.
Service was ok, they were pretty quick and frindly, but at the same time couldn’t tell much about menu/drinks, never checked how we are doing after serving food and didn’t offer pepper/salt/Tabasco for tartar.
They allow dogs both inside and outside (thanks for that!).
Overall impression is good and it’s worth to visit for a dinner."

"The restaurant is simply stunning. We ordered 6 dishes for sharing and all of them tasted on point. The menu is simple but was very well executed.
A surprise meal that turns out to be a very pleasant experience and beautiful memory. Great job to the Chef and service staffs.
Thank you 😊"

The original trailblazer Graanmarkt 13 has been a key part of the Antwerp shopping scene since it opened in a white, five-storey townhouse designed by architect Vincent Van Duysen nearly a decade ago. The ground-floor space is mostly dedicated to fashion, with sweaters by Nordic brand People’s Republic of Cashmere and floaty dresses by Belgian Sofie D’Hoore, but there are also collectibles in the form of trays by the late Belgian ceramicist Pierre Culot and Muller Van Severen cutlery made in collaboration with local design company Valerie Objects.
