Crypte
This restaurant is situated in one of the oldest undercrofts of Belgium and is therefore a nice place for a romantic dinner. On the menu are all kinds of grilled meat and fish. Sitting on their terrace next to the Sint-Michielshelling bridge, you have a great view on the three towers of Ghent and the river Leie.
