Taste of Belgium is a modern Belgian brasserie that fuses Belgian and American cuisines with locally sourced ingredients for both brunch and dinner. Taste of Belgium offers a carefully curated beer list featuring an unequaled selection of Belgian brews and craft cocktails to enhance every meal. In 2023, Jean-François Flechet, our founder, was honored with a knighthood by the prestigious Knighthood of the Brewer's Paddle, recognizing his dedication to Belgian brewing traditions. Our journey began in 2007 at Cincinnati's historic Findlay Market, where Jean-François introduced a traditional Liège-style waffle recipe and a 120-pound cast-iron waffle maker from Belgium. Since then, Taste of Belgium has expanded to seven full-service neighborhood brasseries across Cincinnati and Dayton, Ohio. Discover more about our Belgian-inspired dining experience at www.tasteofbelgium.com.

    I’ve been going there for years. Definitely on a downhill trajectory in my opinion. They still have great coffee’s but no real cream anymore. You get the little packs of fake cream like the gas station gives you. Sad.

    Great way to kick off a birthday weekend! Chicken & waffle always a classic = add a new Acer Chai (terrific bourbon blend that warms the soul).

    Hi Carrie, it sounds like a fantastic way to start a birthday weekend! The combination of Waffle and Chicken with the new Acer Chai is indeed a delightful choice. We appreciate your kind words and hope to see you again soon to celebrate more special moments! - Taste of Belgium Team

    Taste of Belgium is not as good as it used to be. The fries were burnt. The poutin was uninspired and poorly executed. Also served on a flat plate. Got cold very quickly. I would not go back

    Food oversalted. Even the veggie omelette seemed salty, but the fries I couldn't even eat.

    It’s been awhile since we have dined here. I was disappointed that the Kenwood location closed but glad we found the Rookwood location. Our server was exceptional.
