Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

During the second night of our staycation in Helsinki we decided to visit Belge after a break of two years. We were very happy to find the restaurant in the same excellent vibe that we enjoyed in 2019.
The starter "Scallops Sicilian Style" was very good indeed and I could have enjoyed many more of these (only two scallops). The "Mussels Beurre Citron" were a little too mild for my taste and the mussels quite small but the dessert "Autumn Apple Pie" was tremndous!!
Service was a bit rough aroun the edges but friendly and attentive overall. We will be back again soon :)

We were invited to this restaurant for lunch, so I don’t know how expensive it is. It’s located in the centre, easy to find. The place was nice, we sat upstairs, it had a special atmosphere. Unfortunatelly the food wasn’t tasty at all. We ate fish and chicken, they were liked boiled ones without spices. The Belgian beer was good.

Belge bar & bistro is a centrally located Belgian beer and food restaurant on two floors.
This place was conveniently on our way while changing hotels. We had Belgian beers in the street-level bar. They were quite expensive, over 10 euros each.

The service was quite slow and inattentive. Hard to get their attention.
My wife ordered the battered fish and the fish was not cooked properly: translucent/ undercooked. Waiter was understanding and sent it back for another to be made but it came back exactly the same and similarly undercooked. Gave up after the second time.
To be fair they did not charge us for my wife’s main course. I had to get up and go to the bar to pay because we couldn’t get anyone’s attention to come to the table.
Disappointing all round.

We ended the winter weekend in Helsinki with Sunday lunch at Belge. We were warmly welcomed, the table reservation was made in good time, although unnecessary. At two o'clock there were still a few people in the restaurant. We started with a cocktail, we didn't choose from the list but asked the waiter to make one. Wonderfully fresh, warming, exactly as we hoped. For lunch we ate perhaps the best salty waffles ever. I took the waffle with shrimp and lime aioli and my husband chose the overcooked caramelized pork and pickled red onion. Both really good, even for a bigger hunger. I wish there was still room for dessert, but no, that's for another time. Next time we will try mussels, they were eaten at several tables in the restaurant. Recommendation for the bistro, we will definitely come again. The service is uncomplicated and comfortable.

Fish and chips was a disappointment. Fish was not crispy but rather a sloppy one. Chips instead were overcooked and hard as a stone. Beer was however good and tasty so not a total failure. Should have selected the fish soup instead.

A wonderful ambience and great food this is a great place if you need to relax away from the crowd & noise. The mussels are classic and worthy of Chris Belgian restaurant. Sample the Belgian beer too.

Was surprised to find a Belgian Bistro in Helsinki. As Dutch person needed to try the food. Took the liver, which was a long time a go I had tasted it. It was good with a fine dressing. Together with the Leffe Brown it was a good combination.

During our days in Helsinki we dropped in here two times to relax and having something to drink after walking around in the city. Calm and quiet and friendly staff.

We had a Board Strategy Meeting at SOSTE in Yliopistokatu 5. Our meeting was well planned and the meeting between different Boards and the operative leaders was successful. I ate chicken with rise. It was OK.

The experience was not good, because everything I ate had what I think was tarragon in it, and I hate tarragon. And It was not mentioned in the menu. The waffle would have been very good without it.

2 scallops @ 17 euro’s. Although the taste was alright, way over priced
Mussels with creamy garlic sauce. It was mussels in garlic water. Besides the mussels were overcooked.
Service nice but slow.
Would not go again

The food is not good in my opinion, and the soda I ordered was way too sweet and had no carbon dioxide. If I were a tourist I would not vidit this restaurant.
