The view and setting are a 5 while the service and the food were barely a 3. We had a large party and were escorted to the location. It was a beautiful large room with the history draped all over the entire room. The view was of the central square and the palace and we were treated to a special thunderstorm and lightning show — quite spectacular. The work spectacular was nowhere to be found when it came to service and the food… It was slow and laborious and we had to ask for hem to even bring water for us. I know things are a t a leisurely pace but we had an ending time and they were so slow we barely got desert and were being ushered out. The fish was barely edible and was put together hurriedly. No doubt the large group was the issue but if you are set up for this, it should be no issue!

Excellent food in a beautiful building. It is not cheap but a great dining experience. Certainly return on my next visit.

Remains as good as before the transformations. High quality and very well dined. Preferred the scenery before, more aligned to the«grote markt» than now

Je né vous parlerai pas du restaurant de la Maison du Cygne mais plutôt des faits historiques qui se sont déroulés au sein de cette maison de la Grand-Place de Bruxelles. A l’origine, la Maison était une auberge qui fût détruite en 1695 lors du bombardement de la ville par les troupes françaises du Maréchal de Villeroy. Reconstruite en 1698(l’année figure sur la façade), la Maison fût achetée par la Corporation des Bouchers. C’est dans cette maison que Karl Marx y passa le nouvel an en compagnie d’Engels. Quelques années plus tard, en 1885, la Maison du Cygne vit la naissance du POB(Parti Ouvrier Belge). Aujourd’hui toute cette vague politique a laissé place à un café restaurant«L’Ommegang» où on mon avis, certains s’y retrouvent encore pour changer le monde.
