Em’s star rating
I loved everything at Nénu! From the rich lamb wonton with chili oil to the comforting rice pancakes and flavorful udon noodles, everything feels well balanced and full of character. Creative plates and fun cocktails make it an easy place to settle in and enjoy the evening.
Fun Fact
It’s a family tribute with a modern twist. The restaurant was opened by Tutu Pham as a contemporary homage to his parents’ long-running Vietnamese restaurant Le Nénuphar (an institution in Brussels since the early 1980s). At Nénu, he takes traditional Vietnamese flavours and the local tradition of “anh nhau”, eating and drinking together with friends and family, and elevates it with creative, modern dishes that have gotten serious foodie attention, including recognition in the Michelin Guide.
