Top choice in Namur
Offering great value for quality seafood, this is a family-run restaurant with a warm, unpretentious feel. Daily specials complement a fairly priced menu heavily weighted towards the sea; delicious oysters and other shellfish are highlights alongside full-of-flavour fish preparations. When the weather's fine, dining in the quiet courtyard alongside is a treat.
Try a ceramic cup of Breton cider as an aperitif.
