    BXL has changed to Mia Caffe. It is no longer a Belgian restaurant as listed on Open Table. It is Italian. So it wasn't what we expected, but we had a delightful meal. The food and service were both excellent! I will definitely return.

    Made a reservation for Valentine's Day and upon arrival the restaurant was closed with a notice on the door that they will be opening again in a few weeks. Not sure why they were still accepting reservations.

    I just do not understand how OpenTable allowed me to book this restaurant when it was temporarily closed for renovation.

    The mussels were amazing! Hanger steak with potatoes was also pretty good. We went for a quick dinner before a broadway show. Would go back!
