Mussels with chorizo sausage is overkill. Just writing that makes me wonder why I thought it would be a good thing to order in the first place. Also, it is said to include truffles , which it doesn't.
Bitches Who Brunch 's Best Bites 2016 winner for Best Waffles ! Don't miss the Nutella banana waffle with whipped cream and berries . Read more
I doubt you could go wrong with any brunch option here, but I'd recommend the MAIS WAFELS: Cornbread waffle , pulled pork , avocado , fried egg , crème fraîche
The Spicy B&B Bloody Mary is surprisingly good! So was the lobster omlet and seasoned potato fingers. I'm now a big fan of Belgian breakfast !
the waffles aren't even the best part (although they're pretty good) - the hot chocolate with bailey's is phenomenal, and the bucket of bacon was so delicious and crunchy.
You'll do fine ordering any waffle , but for something different, try the ham and cheese quiche with mixed greens. Yum. Service is attentive, but slow. Have a second mimosa or cappuccino and relax.
Savory ratatouille quinoa waffles were amazing! I'd also recommend the sea bass—very light. Restaurant Week service left a lot to be desired though.
Kid-friendly early in the evening (5-6pm). Waffles are mostly on lunch/brunch menu but not dinner . For dinner , try any of the many muscle preparations. And Belgian Beers !
One of the best Belgian restaurants in the city . You may hear celestial trumpets as you take a bite out of their steak frites paired with the perfect beer .
Always a solid option on Barracks Row, Belga Cafe serves global "Eurofusion" cuisine (mostly Belgian) with a neighborly touch. [Eater 38 Member] Read more
Belga serves perfectly fine Belgian cuisine, and has at all times at least five fine Belgian beers on tap (and a host more besides). Reliable food, best for dinner .
The beef stew is phenomenal! Leffe beer in the ju. The slaw that comes with it has slices of apple in it.
This place is great. Get the beermosa and the short ribs with polenta and poached eggs . Also, the fries are insane!
It might feel wrong to order French toast at a waffle place... But it's truly amazing.
Beautiful food - and it's so tasty, too! Bloody Mary is great - love the celery foam on top.
the steak was excellent. the mussels is okay but not the best: it was sandy. the service is fine. take note that they automatically add 20% tip on your total bill.
One of the best HH's on the Hill ! $5 cocktails , $4.50 bar bites . 5-7:00
Serves Green Eggs And Ham , totally legit! Not for kids either; it's great if you like pesto , spinach , & bacon .
Get the goat cheese waffles ! Also, the bucket of bacon is big enough to share. #mco435
Try the The "B"Anini - Best Panini E-V-E-R!!! Creamed spinach , chorizo , gruyère cheese , roasted garlic .
The good: the B&BS burger is outstanding. The bad: the ballads channel in the background can drive you to insanity.
Definitely make reservations on OpenTable if you plan on stopping by for brunch - it is packed but extremely efficient service .
Get the hot chocolate , it's made by melting belgian chocilate into hot milk . It will be the best you've ever had!
Even with a reservation you won't be seated on time. (Or twenty mins after your reservation .) You've been warned.
You can get a bucket of bacon with your waffle .
There's some kind of magic in the cheese croquettes .. and in everything else. Amazing restaurant .
So delicious. Everything I wanted it to be and more.
Beer Tasting Dinner , sept 27th at 6-30pm. 3 courses paired with 7 beers from New Belgium Brewery !
Get one of their many Belgian beers . They have a great collection.
Can’t think of anything good, except the mimosa and coffee . Everything else was americanized and lacked flavour.
Awesome food... Order the braised beef for brunch !
This is one of the more popular brunches on Capitol Hill for a reason. Read more

You have to see this beer menu . A little pricey but unbelievable selection

Mussels , the classic ones.

Try the cigars . The best appetizer on the menu
Must get the Mais Waffels. Cornbread waffles , with pulled pork and egg covering it. Amazing
Everything
Try the Escargot Beignets
It's actually a Belgian restaurant with delicious lambics !
The happy hour portions are really small. The "wings " translates to one wing for $4.
Mussels special on Tuesdays in June!
The mussels rock! Can't go wrong with any pot.
Try the Hoegarden Beef Stew
