Gazzosa

4.3 ·

Step into Gazzosa, the Brussels Italian that keeps revealing more rooms the deeper you go. Share small plates and a glass of wine at a close-set table in a cosy, aesthetic setting.

📖

Full description

Gazzosa looks modest from the street but unfolds in layers once inside, with a ground floor of closely set tables in the classic Italian manner and further seating beyond. Reviewers praise the friendly team, the cosy mood and the wine, and describe the food as tasty, with spaghetti alla mollica singled out as a dish people order.

The recurring caveat concerns portion sizes, which some diners found small for the mid-range price, and one visit mentioned a missed order. It suits a couple looking for a trendy, intimate lunch or dinner rather than a big, filling feast.

Reviews

Friendly people, a cosy place and good wine. The food is tasty, but the portions are surprisingly small for the price. The first time I came it was acceptable, although still a bit small. The second time the portions were far too small for what we paid. We mentioned it before paying to be transparent with them.…
