Refter
What the experts agree on
Refter delivers solid Flemish-French bistro cooking with a flexible prix-fixe menu offering eight starters and ten mains. Comfortable seating and a solid wine list complement unfussy dishes like asparagus and seafood, though the space feels snug.
“Dishes are variations on the bistro standards: asparagus served every which way; snails, fish soup, scallops and so on; the wine list is good and seating comfortable if not spacious.”
