The food was amazing. I went for my birthday. Theres not tha many choices of dishes but its to be expected with a more fancy restaurent like this. And you can bring your own alcohol.
Two of the three had the gastronomic menu. My dinner was very to outstanding except that my dish of mussels, crab and shrimp was disappointing. Two of the mussels were not very fresh and some of the other mussels were small and appear dessicated. We have gone to Le Chou de Bruxelles for one or two times a year for about 5 years, and this was the first disappointment. The tuna tataki, fish soup and creme brulee were outstanding.
Would not go back, had heard great comments but these must've dated back a few years. For a "high end restaurant", they serve the same sides with all their plates (carrots and zucchini), isnt cheap and definitely isnt worth the price. Mussels were very boring, one inch of sauce at the bottom and the rest were unseasoned. Asked for espresso was provided with brown water, they apparently have this big fancy machine but served me some keurig crapola. Only thing that was very good was the tuna tatiki. Our entire table was disappointed.
Nice ambiance, great food, friendly server. They offer two multi-course set menus at reasonable prices. But we settled with alacarte because we have been sitting in a car for a whole day and lack appetite. The food were very good. I especially enjoyed the salad and mussels. Must make reservations to avoid disappointment.
My friend and I attended Le Chou de Bruxelles last night and we were blown away! As a person with celiac as well as food allergies, the team was happy to help! I got soup of the day, which was leek, it was creamy and gorgeous. For my main, I chose the steak and it was quite literally the best steak I've ever eaten!! My friend went with the seven course menu, and every dish she had looked spectacular! I wish more options were able to be gluten free, and more options that don't have shellfish in them would be wonderful! Our server, Julie (Julia?), was spectacular! She was so kind and helpful, practicing her English with me as I don't speak enough French to be well understood! She helped me understand the menu, what options were available and what would be able to be made for me. It's such a luxury experience, and very affordable for what you get!! I cannot wait to come back, my friend is already telling all of her friends and her boyfriend, so I'm sure you'll have lots of repeat business! We were also told that the chef is the same person on staff since the restaurant opened 40 years ago! That is amazing! The quality and excellence of the meal speaks to his amazing talents, refined over such a long period!
Good Belgian food at a reasonable price with good service and great ambiance. This place has a lot of dishes that is often not seen in other French and/or Belgian restaurants. That is offals! We love them very much and some were even available in the host table. There are also a lot of choices of mussels but I recommend them only when in season to get the big juicy ones. Overall, the food was good but could be better. The dishes tasted good but if only the taste was more "concentrated" it would have made the difference between good and excellent. For example, the marinière mussels is cooked in a vegetable broth and white wine. The white wine is usually very predominant in the soup but here, it lacked in it. Yes, it makes a difference in the taste. Also, you can bring your own wine! There are a 7 course meal, a 5 course meal or you can also order dishes separately. The service was great. I recommend it because of the quality-price ratio.
My first time to be in this restaurant and it didnt disapppint. Took à table d'hote and everything was marvelous. My pork plate is just à little bit on the done side .Definitely returning.Quality food for a cheap price compared to others.
The staff was very nice & passionate. The atmosphere of the restaurant was lovely. The food in general were nice, specifically the Duck and Salmon and the sauce of the pork dish. Except the potage poisson 🐟 was…… and the service was long between each dish …
Very good service. Still so good.
10 star restaurant! Regulars and loyal visitors to this place, always well served by Vincent and Gabrielle, the owner, a gem! Its a Wow on every visit, food, atmosphere, everything is perfect!!!!
Warm and delicious :)
Always pleasant and good, eating Brussels Sprouts
From the welcome to the exit, including the food, service, cleanliness of the place, everything was perfect, thank you
We had a great evening at this chic and intimate restaurant, where the calm atmosphere and attentive service added greatly to the experience. The dishes were well presented and tasty, with a favorite being the beetroot tartare and the duck, perfectly cooked. The lemon-tequila granita was refreshing, and the table d hôte options offered great flexibility. As for desserts, the chai tea crème brûlée tasted delicious despite a slightly disappointing texture. On the other hand, my partners frozen mousse was incredible, so much so that we would have liked to bring some home! A great discovery that we recommend without hesitation.
Excellent meal and excellent service from Émilie as always.
Everything was perfect.
Everything is still excellent. The service is impeccable and the atmosphere is perfect, both as a couple and with friends. Its a must.
Excellent Parking: Dans la rue Food : 5/5 |
The gourmet menu was perfect for a romantic evening away from the children. Very good service, warm with a good atmosphere. Not too much waiting. We are never disappointed with Brussels sprouts! Don t forget to bring your wine
Parking: Il faut se stationner dans les rues avoisinantes. Plus difficile lorsque le restaurant est complet. Cest le seul élément négatif de ce très bon restaurant Food
Excellent service and good food! We really like it! Kid-friendliness: My son was able to enjoy a childrens meal and make some great culinary discoveries.
Parking: Limite lorsqu on est arrivé Food
We ordered a meal for 13 people for delivery. We received great service, the food was tasty and hot. I thank Gabrielle for the superb service and Keven for the very efficient delivery. We will continue to encourage you. Thanks again!
We were received like kings! Thank you to your team! We especially appreciated that you were flexible with starter and main meal choices during the service! And then Shane was wonderful! THANK YOU
Very good service and excellent food as always!
Eat well, delicious mussels Parking: he doesnt have one, in the street and far away
Lack of soup at the moment
Overcooked blue cheese mussels and white wine mussels. The rest perfect
Parking: Nombre de place limitée Food
Service too too slow despite having informed the waitress. No time for dessert or coffee in 2.5 hours
The team is great! We feel like home
Very welcoming place!
The server Keven is very friendly. He gives excellent service Parking: The only negative is that there isnt much parking. Sometimes you have to walk a few blocks.
Magnificent experience
Best restaurant in town!
The meal was excellent as always . We were very well received and very, very well served. The waitress was super nice and smiling, she answered our questions well. Were going back there in just a few weeks. Thanks to the whole gang Happy Holidays
Great food. Perfect service. Change in lighting would make place incredible
Everything was really perfect! Waitress Alexia I think, really attentive and very friendly!
Always quality! Beautiful generous plate of sauce, vegetables and meat and the starter was excellent!! Discreet, warm and professional service! Thank you and good luck
Beautiful atmosphere, extraordinary waitress service. Cooking the steak much overcooked it was not medium rare even after 2 times and yes we cut in the center and not the sides. .What can we say about Kévin, a fairly ordinary employee who listens to customers conversations and then had the lack of judgment to come and see us to tell us that if we werent happy to leave!!!! Ive never seen that!!!
A delight for every occasion. Small suggestion, arrange the dining rooms differently, we were on the right side when entering this time and the last time in the basement and both times it was too noisy. Bordering on aggressive. We eat so well, but the noise is annoying. THANKS
Vanessas service seemed rushed and seemed to have no time to devote to her customers!! Starters not hot!!!
Excellent service.
Everything was perfect, however, some background music would be nice :)
Hello, I was very eager to go back because it was my favorite restaurant but I was very disappointed....The starter and the soup were excellent but the main meal was not hot and my partners was cold. Also. The duck leg confit was stiff, luckily there was a good sauce with it. I had a cappuccino and it was very cold, there I mentioned it to the waitress and she kindly offered me a new one for free. When I took a sip I burned my tongue but a really good burn. I have the impression that we put the coffee in the microwave thinking that the coffee will be hot.

wow I was delighted to rediscover your restaurant
Excellent service! Thanks to the staff!
Excellent food, presentation and service! Thank you Vincent for the excellent service!
Very nice restaurant! Impeccable service and truly delicious meal! An experience close to haute cuisine at a very reasonable price! I recommend!
Excellent, as always!! Thanks to the whole team!!! Parking: When the restaurant is full, parking is not easy. Wheelchair accessibility: N / A
The atmosphere is pleasant but too much noise it was difficult to follow our conversation Portions are generous Dietary restrictions: I am celiac and I had no discomfort after the meal thank you
A restaurant that is worth the trip! Exceptional value for money. The only regret is the service, which is a bit garocher brasserie style, whereas the cuisine deserves better.
We dine there about once per season. We notice each time that the accompanying vegetables are the same and that the taste is a little bland.
atmosphere was excellent. Food could not be better.
Unbeatable price quality. My favorite restaurant in Sherbrooke! If I could give a sixth star I would.
Excellent in every way, as always!!!
Always a must in Sherbrooke!
It was a first time and surprisingly surprised by the quality and freshness of the food for the price. WoW for sure we will go back there.
Always perfect!
Delicious meal! Always nice to have a meal at Le Chou
Dietary restrictions: option sans gluten Food
1ere fois pour mon conjoint et moi et franchement, je nai absolument rien à dire de négatif sur ce restaurant. La nourriture est excellente, le staff est super gentil musique pas trop forte et pour le prix quon paie.. on en a pour notre argent.Même les chaises sonts super confortable. On y retournera assurément ! Bravo. Super restaurant, vraiment
I loved the experience, thank you very much and happy birthday to our beautiful waitress
Delicious, impeccable service, calm and warm atmosphere
When we choose to pay more than $125 for a dinner we are entitled to have a meal that will satisfy us. I must say that the starter and soup as well as the dessert were delicious. The main course on the other hand was VERY disappointing. Everything on the plate was cold. The only ingredient that added a little hot was the sauce added to the lamb. The vegetables as well as the Normandy potatoes were room temperature. The meat was cold (supposedly a lamb fillet) which was more like two sausages, was quite stubborn to cut and chew. Fortunately, the perfect service and pleasant atmosphere put some relief on my disappointment. It was not our first visit, however with this last experience I have serious doubts about next time.
Thank you for the welcome and especially the service.
Excellent and hot food, diverse menu choice and affordable prices for the quality of the food eaten there. I will definitely go back!
If it werent for parking difficulties and easy access to toilets, this would be a perfect score. Perhaps a valet parking service should be considered.
The mussel menu is extensive and they are all delicious. The desserts are delicate, elaborate and exceptional. The side dishes, vegetables, potatoes, were overcooked and not cooked at all.
Still good for a long time. One of the best restaurants in Sherbrooke.
Excellent place
My lamb was very stiff, I didnt eat it. (I had a 3 dollar credit) I would have appreciated if the waitress had asked if it was to our liking at the beginning. So for me it s been a long time and it will continue to be the case. (if I go back) only thing I liked was the fish soup.
First time and everything was more than perfect...thanks again
Sunny Mussels are delicious! Reasonable price. One of my favorite restaurants!
Wonderful great service, excellent food, perfect price quality, superb general atmosphere, cozy comfort and Émilie service is just perfect!
Excellent, typically Belgian/European cuisine and a very varied menu.
Always tasty dishes, constantly evolving research. Attentive, distinguished and charming service. Pleasant atmosphere. Exceptional restaurant.
Very of course everything .BUT not the bottom floor (we didnt hear the music but a dish washer or something????!!)
Noisy but success brings many customers! Parking: arrived early.
Hello, please add your succulent Indian mussels to your menu! They are very tasty and tasty in its set of ingredients. I love them! I go to your restaurant to eat mussels and yesterday I chose to eat your fish of the day, because the choice of mussels on the menu all seemed to me to be not very tasty and without any addition as such... I suggest you to offer them on the evening menu, in order to discover this flavor which will certainly be appreciated by all! Brief! It s a wish I make and hope that they will reappear on your menu. NOTE: At the time, it was Gabriellle, the owner who suggested them to me and God she was not wrong. For the atmosphere, beautiful peaceful decor and the choice of music is perfect. Looking forward to returning home with the surprise of being able to taste this dish, because in Sherbrooke, there are none better. THANKS! Best wishes ! Lyne Bourbeau Parking: For the moment, the parking possibilities are still responding well, because the location and the character of the restaurant are interesting to maintain. However, if you could add a mention, related to parking, during your confirmation either by email or by telephone, to tell people to be careful to park correctly to ensure they do not take up the space of two cars. Yesterday, unfortunately, if people had taken the time to be more attentive, it would have been possible to park four more cars. Brief! To be continued
As usual, excellent meal and 5 star service.
Just a little noisy Otherwise perfect Parking: Okay
Very pleasant experience: excellent gastronomic menu (I recommend the rack of lamb, very good, good portion, the price is worth it); attentive and pleasant service; warm atmosphere. Very good value for money.
Always as good, thank you Gab for the beautiful sweater, looking forward to seeing you again, thank you again excellent
following a few visits per year to your home, its a memorable evening each time. Thank you for maintaining a quality standard.. Parking: difficult to do better given the location of the restaurant
Very beautiful and good restaurant. I love that its a BYOB. Very good value for money. I highly recommend. Parking: Limited parking in the rear, but ample room on adjacent streets Kid-friendliness: Not a restaurant for children.
A must in the region.
Very slow and not efficient service. My piece of meat was so dry that I had difficulty chewing it. It was one of my favorite restaurants, but it just lost me Parking: On the street opposite or directly or the building.
A beautiful, warm place, rich in history, with attentive waiters! Beautiful presentation, generous portion. Thank you very much, to revisit with my children.
Excellent restaurant.
My favorite restaurant ever
Everything was excellent as usual. It s one of the best cuisines in Sherbrooke!
It was the first time and it wont be the last. We enjoyed our gourmet dinner. Excellent seafood and rack of lamb. When the meal is quite expensive we have high expectations at this place our expectations were met.
Wow I recommend for everyone great quality price, food and presentation of gourmet plates and waitress or simple pair and meets our expectations.and a plus to Katia exceptional woman funny and attentive for these customers after several years of experience.continue to bring you up to date with Gabrielle the owner. .I take off my hat to take on a great challenge after several years. Remains known continues and even more put forward, innovates with caterer for exceptional food and atmosphere and warm company waitress. In short, congratulations to the whole team.
Alright Dietary restrictions: one person was gluten free
This place is just perfect and the food is so creamy and wonderful
Always a pleasure to eat at Le Chou. Beautiful atmosphere and good rest every time. Good service received
Food more than extraordinary. The portions are very good and the choice on the menu is perfect
Everything was perfect! Thank you so much
Very good service from Vanessa and impeccable food thank you
Excellent: The tomato cream soup, the Brie starter on apple and speculoos, and what about the braised beef fillet with its sauce. Wow! Without forgetting the service.
Quick service and delicious mussels and fries. Very reasonable price for this type of restaurant. The server Vincent was efficient, courteous and very pleasant.
What an incredible surprise to realize that I had never set foot in this gastronomic gem after 14 years in Sherbrooke. I discovered much more than just a restaurant: a real institution. Each dish is an ode to quality, carefully respecting each ingredient in perfect harmony. The service was equally remarkable: Mr. Vincent, our server, not only expertly guided us through the menu, but also demonstrated exemplary kindness and efficiency. Special mention for the choice of the gastronomic menu: -Tuna Tataki, pink pepper crust, seasonal salsa, lime sour cream -Brie fondant, berries, speculoos -Fish soup -Crab mussel and Nordic shrimp, home fries -Creme brulée with speculoos (absolutely all delicious) I tried hard to find a single negative point about this experience, but to no avail. A special salute to Ms. Gabrielle Homans and her entire team (including the cooks for whom we were unable to show their gratitude) for their exceptional work. If a restaurant were to embody the essence of Sherbrooke, with its country charm and culinary excellence, Le Choux de Bruxelles would undoubtedly be at the head of the queue. Already looking forward to going back. THANKS
Our young waitress Frédérique was just perfect! Excellent meal. Evening 10/10, thank you very much!
Really good I brought friends who had never been there, they loved it, it s becoming a better restaurant
10/10 for our gourmet dinner!!!! The food was excellent!!!! And the impeccable service!!!! We will definitely come back! Thank you so much!!!
Everything was excellent. Reasonably priced for a gourmet meal! Very satisfied :)
Nice cozy atmosphere but a little noisy. Impeccable service. I had the mushroom caps with snail which were excellent and the Ardennes mussels which were a little overcooked but still delicious in taste. THANKS Parking: You have to look in the surrounding streets, but you always find something.
Great service! Excellent food!
THANKS. Very good service and delicious gourmet meal.
Everything is always perfect, but only a small comment, the tomato sauce should not be on the steak but apart...Thank you for everything
Excellent value for money, fast service and excellent food! A warm team!
Very pleasant staff, exquisite cuisine, beautiful place!
Parking: Manque de place Food
Once again we loved it Everything is perfect. THANKS See you soon
We ate really well and our waitress Shane was great! Excellent restaurant to have a good time.
Great food with great company!
Great experience THANKS
The service, the food, the atmosphere; everything was perfect, thank you and see you soon
The gourmet menu at $57 is really good! Six courses of pure delight!
Very good service, smile from our waitress. The meal was excellent. You cant go wrong with cabbage.
Without doubt the best fine cuisine restaurant in Sherbrooke! And whats more, its possibly the cheapest! The only reason for only 4 stars for the food is the lumps in the soup (cream of tomato that night)... It should be strained or Vitamixed!
Very noisy. Disappointed by the crème brûlée on the menu Sherbrooke sets the table. It was undercooked because it was almost liquid. We mentioned it to the waitress, she left with the crème brûlée, she came back to get paid, simply saying that she was sorry .. not as much as us in her way of doing things
A superb meal. Remarkable cuisine, impeccable service. Only downside: noisy room, high noise level. But all in all, a very enjoyable meal! Well done team! Parking: Very limited space in the restaurant parking lot. Place difficult to find in the surrounding streets.
Well come back!
very satisfied
For an affordable and really good gourmet menu, this is the place! Everything is super tasty and well presented. Great service. Excellent value for money! The kind of place where you have to book in advance because its always full, which says a lot about the appreciation.
Im leaving 5 stars because overall the experience was good and made me want to come back. Just a small negative point: the service was a bit slow, especially at the beginning. There were a lot of people, it s true.
Just wow
What can I say about the waiter Vincent. Kind, polite, smile. Keep it long +++++++ down the line. THANKS. Francine Boivin Parking: We have an early dinner 5:15 p.m. no problem for parking
We were in the basement and it was very noisy
Everything is perfect: cooked food, table service and pleasant atmosphere, even if the space between the tables hardly allows for intimacy in exchanges. Prices are moderate. I highly recommend it.
Really a great experience with the gourmet menu. Thanks to Estelle for her excellent service.
We were sick following our visit, 4 of the 6 experienced stomach aches
A magnificent dinner. Very good service from our waitress Alexia and our bossgirl Lorianne. The food was excellent, tasty and hot. Very nice experience
Dietary restrictions: Excellent repas Food
My only beef is about the online reservation system, which can be confusing about the hours. Fortunately, I was able to fix that with a phone call to the restaurant.
Excellent food, beautiful atmosphere and more than perfect service! We loved it! The 7 treatments formula is really interesting, bringing your own wine is a plus. The perfect score for us!!
So good!! Nice variety - open to food intolerances - excellent service! Dietary restrictions: Able to modify certain dishes to accommodate gluten and egg.
