Visited as a solo diner on a quiet weekday night and had a delicious meal (lamb with winter vegetables - the special, then freshly homemade chocolate mousse for dessert). Very friendly service from the two person team. Central location, small restaurant. Will make a point to come back if ever I find myself in Bruges again!
As a last minute dinner decision, Bistro Den Amand exceeded every expectation! The restaurant is small and cozy and exceptionally clean. The service is great and the food is absolutely incredible. The sea bass off the specials menu was amazing. Recommend calling for a reservation as there are very few tables and you don’t want to miss the opportunity to dine here.
Quaint 6 table Bistro just steps away from the Market. The husband and wife team provided us with a terrific meal and attentive, informative and pleasant service. I definitely recommend the Bruges specialty appetizer to enjoy while the main course is being thoughtfully prepared.
Other than the appetizer, we had one of the nightly specials, wild venison with Port sauce, fresh vegetables, baked apples, mushrooms and croquettes, and the Chateaubriand with peppercorn sauce, baked fingerling potatoes and added a fresh seasonal salad. Everything was delicious.
Bonus: Belgian style non-alcoholic beer!

A beautiful, quiet, and small bistro tucked away from the main square of Bruges. The food was absolutely exceptional, think grandmother's cooking but elevated. We ordered the special duck and the chateaubriand. The duck came rare, with a thick dark meaty jus, with an array of different vegetables, a mound of sautéed chanterelle mushrooms, and potato croquettes (plus extra on the side!). The steak was good with a creamy peppercorn sauce. Excellent and friendly service they gave us extra paprika crackers and a little olive pate at the beginning. Portions were very generous and we were stuffed afterwards! Would recommend getting in early for lunch as they only can do so many covers with just a small two person team.
We had no idea what we wanted to eat. But fate brought us inside and it was a winner. The menu is supremely seasonal. The appetizer was playful and delicious. We were treated to a seemingly random scattering of fresh ingredients that all worked together. The mains were likewise visually chaotic but united in flavor.
The fish soup was very good. Made of leek and mushroom and the daily fish with white asparagus was cooked well. Unfortunately I really really don’t like the spring roll in goat cheese. The dish was ill conceived with asian vegetables and some curry sauce. The flavor is all over the place. It might be better with fish or shrimp in it. Apple and pear crumble dessert is ok. Tasted healthy. I also was not impressed with the pita bread with olive tapenade. The olive tasted quite good. The salad with shrimp and asparagus tasted ok. A bit of too many things in it.
Sophisticated yet satisfying food, focusing on Belgian standards but with inventive twists and occasional Asian inspirations. Friendly and welcoming service. Just a few steps from the most touristy corner of Bruges, yet it feels like a local find.
Probably the best food we had in Belgium. Amazing beer selection. Incredible friendly and attentive staff. Super nice outside seating with lovely views. A great experience that makes a Belgium trip complete.
