Quartier de la Senne has become one of Brussels' more rewarding stops for a proper sit-down meal, with Belgian and broader European cooking done to a high standard across a good spread of price points. The cooking here holds its own without requiring you to head towards the Grand-Place tourist circuit, and the Mediterranean and Asian options round out the picture with real choice depending on the mood. It is a useful neighbourhood to know when you want quality without the premium of the more obvious addresses.
