Pasta Divina - Brussels    Share

Loved this place! Was busy on Thursday lunch but we were able to squeeze in without a reservation. Pasta was delicious - fresh and all homemade. Service was attentive and friendly. Definitely recommend!!

In the bustling city of Brussels, this Italian restaurant is simply irresistible for pasta lovers. Definitely a must visit if you are in capital city of Belgium. However, beware that you might need to queue to get a table as, we waited about 30-45mins, on both occasions when we dined there. We were ushered to our table and service is good. The patriarch of this family restaurant attended to us, unfolding the story of his beloved wife cooking with the choicest ingredients that made into those lovely pasta dishes. As he amuses us, we were given insights of the menu and today specials. The pasta recommendations were absolutely excellent. We ordered a squid ink pasta that is so delicious, with the combination of the squid ink (infused in the pasta itself, not the sauce) and the succulent prawns just balances the pasta giving it a springy chew that is simply heavenly. For the mushroom pasta, the earthly taste of the mushroom with a light cream, together with the pork cheek, fused nicely without being feeling too heavy on the creamier side. Yes, both dishes were absolutely wonderfully done. Overall, we highly recommend this restaurant if you are in Brussels, as you certainly will not be disappointed.

I had two of the specials of the day (first one is truffle pasta and the second one is the mushroom pasta). The last one I had was the second on the menu tagliatelle with the red wine and pancetta. First class best in the world pasta and service by the pasta chef’s husband. Will recommend all to go if in Brussels and definitely the best pasta in town. Do book before going down as it can get quite busy!

The food at Pasta Divina is consistently excellent. When I lived in Brussels I would eat here every time I was craving pasta. Now that I live in another country, every time I visit Brussels I stop at Pasta Divina for a wonderful meal and great atmosphere.

I have to say this is the best restaurant I have in Belgium. Even better than Italy. Owner introduce their pasta with pride and service is just excellent. Cannot ask for more!
