Brussels - Post Report Question and Answers
What typical restaurants, food delivery services, and/or takeout options are popular among expatriates?
Downtown there's a large variety of restaurants. Out in the 'burbs there are fewer options; most restaurants seem to be bistros with a smattering of sushi places. Be aware that Belgians have a tendency to sprinkle crispy (fake) onion bits on sushi. ??? - Jun 2025

We didn't eat out a lot. You can get restaurant delivery from takeaway.com. You can get groceries delivered from Carrefour. - Aug 2024
We use Dilveroo and Ubereats. - Apr 2024
Everything is here. Belgian, Italian, French cuisine probably most common. - Feb 2023
While we were never fans of Belgian cuisine (nice in the winter, but not regularly), we found restaurants we loved. Most were Western or European, not so much on the Asian side. We ate at home a lot. One of our complaints, though, would be restaurants demanding reservations. Even if we wanted to drop in for a quick appetizer and drink, and the restaurant was completely empty, it would be booked for the evening. They didn't seem understand this particularly American practice. - Jan 2022
Uber Eats and Deliveroo both operate in Brussels. You can get almost anything you want. Lots of sushi, Greek, Lebanese, Chinese, and of course French & Belgian options. - Oct 2021

Uber eats. - Sep 2020
You can find most kinds of restaurants here, but I think the ethnic options are lacking. Uber Eats and Deliveroo operate widely, and you can get many things delivered to your home. Good pizza can be expensive and hard to find compared to US, but other options are comparable. - Sep 2020
