Best Places to Eat in Orange County | Brussels Bistro in Laguna Beach
I love living in Orange County for so many reasons: the beach, great weather, and incredible restaurants to dine at! One of these amazing restaurants in Orange County is Brussels Bistro in Laguna Beach. It’s Memorial Day weekend and my local friends I invite you to visit this delicious place. For those, planning on visiting Laguna Beach make sure to keep this restaurant on your radar. You will not be disappointed!
Taste the Flavors of Belgium
We attend Brussels Bistro to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The service was so wonderful, warm, and receptive. Albert and I have never had Belgium food before and was so excited to experience Brussel’s Best! Established in 2004, Brussels Bistro brings delicious Belgium flavors to Southern California. It is a small and very popular place so it is advised to make reservations. It is a lovely place in a perfect setting being Laguna Beach with beautiful mouth-watering food.
My Recommendations
From appetizers, salads, entrees and desserts there are plenty of menu options to satisfy your taste buds and appetite. Here are my recommendations from Brussels Bistros you must try because they are exceptional and have made a lasting impression. And, I think you will love them too! Their Small Croquette Degustation variety is delicious. A small round of chopped goodness fried in breadcrumbs. The sampling of meat, sea shrimp, and cheese was amazing and perfect to share too (if you can).
You must order a pot of mussels! I am a seafood freak so I was so excited to try this. It has been a long time since I have had mussels. Brussels Bistros’ Les Moules are shipped by air several times a week for the restaurant because quality matters! They work directly with Penn Cove farmers in Washington State to deliver the best bold, briny and blue. I am a fan of curry and it was an easy decision to order my Les Moules in a curry creamy sauce! Soooo good I dipped my bread in it! It comes to your table hot so be careful, after I waited a few seconds…I couldn’t wait any further, I ate my first one and feel in love! In fact, I want another pot of Les Moules now, this time a large one!
Authentic Belgian Experience
Lastly, make sure to order from the Brussel’s Best menu. They have entrees that are slow cooked, homemade from “grandma’s recipes”. I absolutely loved their Cream Chicken and Mushroom Stew over Puff Pastry. I love pastries and was in absolutely culinary heaven when the puff just melted on my tongue. The creamy chicken and mushroom stew was hearty and flavorful. What makes it even more spectacular is that it comes with a portion of their famous Les Frites! Their homemade fries are double cooked. I am now a fan of Belgian Fries! Make sure to order each of their homemade sauces. My favorites are: barbecue, curry ketchup and truffle mayonnaise.
If you love beer, Brussels Bistros have a large variety of tap! Albert and I don’t drink. However, we noticed the service and energy of their bar is lively and friendly.
You will find Brussels Bistros at 222 Forest Avenue, Laguna Beach, CA 92651. Open 7 days a week and make reservations at (949) 376-7955 or online. Restaurants owners Nicolas and Thomas make you feel like home. Thank you so much Brussels Bistros for having us!
I want to visit your Brussels Bistro in Laguna Beach! I have not tried Belgian food so I would get the steak and Belgian double fried fries then taste everyone else’ sshh!
I’ve heard of it but I haven’t had a chance to go yet. This post definitely persuades me to make more of an effort to go the next time I’m in Orange County.
I am such the foodie and this will be one of the places once I come to this area. We love to travel for food. Everything looks yummo.

I’m very happy to read you enjoyed Belgian food 😉 Honestly it has been a little bit “revisited” as it’s not exactly what we are eating in Belgium (but let says it’s close to it) but it’s great to see my country appreciated all over the world 😉 If I move to California I’ll quit my current business to open a restaurant he he
