The food in this place is delicious. The service on the other hand... We didn't really feel welcome. The wine didn't match the menu (as promised) and when we politely said something about it, we got the answer that our remark was "inconvenient". Ordered dessert wine, but we never got it. Waited half an hour for coffee and another half... More 

Away from the normal tourist places Faim Fatale offers more than the most critical dinners will expect. To call the food excellent does not do it justice. It is phenomenal to say the least. From the moment you walk in until you walk out, begrudgingly, your senses are treated to wonderful tantilizing smells and tastes. All prepared and served by... More 

We went on a saturday-evening. As this restaurant is a bit out of the tourist area, you can really sit down and relax all evening. The surprise menu of the chef really pleased us including the wines.

Make a reservation because if they are not expecting you, the kitchen may close. The food was very very good. I had eaten here a couple of years ago and returned and was not disappointed in the least. I had sweetbreads which are not to be found on many menus, and require some expertise to prepare. Theirs were the best... More

The surprise menu was a surprise from the beginning to the end. Fine, fresh food, excellent service, with a smile and a joke every now and then.... More 

Faim fatale is a very nice restaurant, fine-dining, in a nice atmosphere. The food is refined and the wine is excellent. It is one of the best restaurants in that part of town. It is located not to far from the center of Ghent and just next to the Zuid, where you have a large underground parking place.

We visited this restaurant with some business colleagues. The surprise menu was recommended to us and we went with that. The four courses were all pretty good, if not spectacular, although my best memory was the Orval trappiste beer we drank with the starters. One of my colleagues went for a wagyu beef carpaccio and a large steak, which seemed... More
