One of the best experiences in Brussels!
The food was absolutely outstanding. We started with the pizza — even the simple Margherita was incredible, especially with the stracciatella on top. Then came the steak, which was perfectly cooked, followed by the pasta… honestly, no words can explain how amazing it was.
On top of the food, the waiter was exceptionally friendly and helpful. He guided us through the menu, helped us choose the right dishes, and made the whole experience even better with his kindness and professionalism.
Amazing food, great atmosphere, and wonderful service. Highly recommended — I’ll definitely be coming back!

This place is ideal for a date. The atmosphere, from decor to lighting, makes for an elegant and intimate experience. Often places like these don’t match the vibe with good food but in this case they did. Simple dishes, well executed. You can tell the steak was well seasoned before it hit the pan, because the juice was so full of flavour. The pasta was perfectly all dente. The wine cart has a good variety of choices by the glass, and cocktails are inspired. Lastly, the service was very attentive. The waiter gave me a tablehook for my purse, and was just the right amount of present throughout the evening.
Some points that could still be improved – though did not affect the experience: waiting time for main dish took on the longer side, the cook used a bit too much salt, especially on the potatoes. (Still better than too little salt, and for the steak it actually worked well), and the cocktail though great in taste, was a bit shifted (generally due to under-shaking or temperature mismatch)
Regardless, we had a wonderful evening, highly recommend!

From the moment we entered, the restaurant exuded warmth and sophistication. The service was attentive yet unobtrusive, and each dish arrived like a work of art—fresh, nuanced, and perfectly balanced.
The meal felt both indulgent and memorable. This is more than dining; it’s an experience to savor.Thank you

Having dined at Barracuda four times—for both lunch and dinner—it’s clearly one of the city’s finest Italian restaurants. They consistently deliver tasty dishes made with top-tier ingredients. Add in a lovely atmosphere and super kind, attentive staff, and you have an absolute must-visit.

I expected to have a good experience here – much like the experience I had in Paris. But unfortunately – bit into these 2 small rocky bits (see picture) which could have broken a tooth or two from a starter with pistachios. Normally I would give 1 star – but staff are friendly enough (got discount) and food overall good. Went there for lunch on Saturday (reserved table) – waited very long for food to arrive. Very lively place, hard to talk up over the noise – very Hollywood-ish Italian decor. Feels hyped-up in my opinion.

I’ve been to this restaurant several times and it impresses me every single time. The interior is meticulously designed — truly one of the most beautiful and refined places I’ve ever visited: elegant, distinctive, with an atmosphere that welcomes you the moment you walk in.
The service is excellent: the waiters speak Italian, they’re kind, attentive, and always helpful without being intrusive.
The food is very good, authentically Italian. The cacio e pepe pasta is exceptional — creamy, flavorful, and made exactly as it should be.
This is a restaurant I highly recommend and one I will definitely return to. You absolutely need to book ahead because it’s in high demand — and rightfully so.
On top of that, every time I leave, I’m left with a genuinely pleasant feeling: not just of having eaten well, but of having had a complete, well-curated, enjoyable experience. It’s one of those places you return to gladly, and where you know you’ll make a great impression if you bring someone along.

I made a reservation on their website (bigmammagroup…), but when I arrived at the Italian restaurant, they couldn’t find it. It wasn’t a big issue since we only waited about 10–15 minutes. However, I noticed other customers also had their reservations lost and ended up waiting 20–25 minutes.
The restaurant has very nice decoration, and the food is average, but it’s definitely worth trying at least once. The service at the table was good, much better than the two ladies at the entrance, who seemed untrained. It seems their reservation system doesn’t work properly.
I would give them 5 stars because the food isn’t bad and the service itself is good. The only downside is the noise level, it’s so loud that it’s hard to hear the person sitting across from you.
Paid parking is available at “Place Flagey.”

We had a lovely overall dining experience at Barracuda recently for lunch. To start with, the interior of the trattoria is stunning in art-deco style, a mix between fun, casual chic and kitsch. When we arrived, the restaurant was quite full on a Monday and after a short wait, we were welcomed with a smile by the friendly host, who guided us to our table. We were served by Enola, and what a delightful person she was. She was super friendly and professional, we felt that she genuinely cared. She was very insightful, giving us information on Big Mamma’s concept and was very knowledgeable on the products offered on the menu. Service that followed was super efficient and always with a smile, we never had to wait too long for anything, which is fantastic for a lunch service as we had limited time. The food was delicious, and above all fresh, served beautifully with some wow effects. Knowing Big Mamma’s concept and where/how the ingredients are sourced from and made, we felt it was a fair price-quality ratio, especially for Brussels where many places are overpriced without the level of service and product quality to back it up. The ambiance was lively yet enlightening with the right mix of clientele. The background music was not intrusive, we did not have to scream at each other despite the restaurant being buzzy and the music added to the volume. Overall and for Brussels standard of this kind of concept, Barracuda delivered and met our expectations. We’ll certainly be back and will recommend it to anyone we know.
