Order the moules frites and the first choice is the broth: a Trappist version with abbey ale, chorizo, and roasted corn, a white ale with bleu cheese and bacon, a bright Provençale, a coconut curry. Belgium's national dish anchors the kitchen here, a full bowl of mussels with hand-cut frites and house dipping sauces, and it's what most people come back for.
The rest of the menu reads like Belgian comfort cooking done with intent: carbonades flamandes, the Flemish beef stew braised in ale, crispy bitterballen, a Flemish onion soup the kitchen treats as its signature, and plates that reach into duck breast and beef tartare. Behind the bar is the other half of the draw, a deep Belgian beer list organized by style, plus absinthe and cocktails you won't find in many rooms around the Upstate.
All of it sits in a renovated basement of old brick, heavy timber, and low ceilings that reads more like a cellar tavern in Belgium than a room off Main Street. Reviewers keep returning to two things: the beer knowledge behind the bar, and how completely the room carries you out of downtown Greenville.
It fits a slow date night, or an evening showing out-of-town visitors a side of the city they won't expect, best taken unhurried with a beer you've never tried and a bowl of mussels between you.
