Rank 4. Au Vieux Saint Martin
Belgian Brasserie
Colorful artwork lines the walls of this old-school Brussels brasserie on the Grand Sablon, and the terrace pulls in everyone from antique dealers to tourists who've just figured out where they are. The menu reads like a Belgian civics lesson: filet américain, vol-au-vent, brains with gribiche. The larder is famously well-stocked, and the kitchen doesn't pretend otherwise.

Rank 4. Belga Queen
Modern Brasserie
The vaulted ceilings, dome windows, and stone columns of a former 18th-century bank set the stage here, and the room earns every dramatic glance. Belga Queen is a grand Brussels brasserie where classics share the menu with sharper modern cooking and a seafood bar that gets the most attention from the kitchen. The crowd tends toward people who like their lunch to feel like an occasion, which in this city is a reasonable number of people.

Rank 4. La Taverne du Passage
Art deco Brasserie
A flock of golden origami birds hangs from the ceiling of this Art Deco brasserie tucked inside the Galerie de la Reine, and the room has been quietly ignoring the decades ever since. The menu runs the same direction: shrimp fritters, veal kidneys in mustard cream, warm chocolate mousse. Classic Belgian comfort food, served without apology in a setting that makes the Grand Place feel almost too modern.
