" The service at Belga Cafe was top-notch, but I didn't find the food as memorable. I tried the green eggs which were interesting but not something I'd crave again. An enjoyable dining experience nonetheless, but I might try something else next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars! Everything was perfect—the atmosphere, the food, and the service. A great variety on the menu, and the seafood was exceptionally fresh. I can't recommend Belga Cafe enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here with friends for brunch, and while the food was good, I found it lacked the authentic flavor I was hoping for. The waffles were decent, but nothing to write home about. The service, on the other hand, was attentive which made up for the food somewhat. " (*Curated Review*)

" The waffles here were the best part of the meal! They were crispy and served hot. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. I would say the restaurant's outdoor seating is worth the experience as well! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Belga Cafe for brunch with high hopes after hearing about its authentic Belgian waffles, but my experience was a bit hit or miss. The waffles were good, but the service felt a bit slow despite the place not being packed. It was a cozy atmosphere though, and the food was fresh. " (*Curated Review*)

" I am excited to share my experience! The duck was perfectly cooked, and the strawberries with my waffle were fresh and sweet! I had an overall fantastic meal, and the staff were so friendly and attentive. Highly recommend Belga Cafe! " (*Curated Review*)
