Gentse Feesten are here.

Elvire stays open, usual hours — because we love this city buzzing just as much as you do.

Need a breather between stages and crowds? Our terrace is right here, calm, cozy, and just steps from all the action. Perfect spot to kick off the night before diving back in.

Come say hi. Table’s ready, terrace is golden. 🦪💘

The heatwave made the decision for us.

We’re closing lunch a little earlier than planned — as of this week. Summer mode: on.

Elvire will be evenings only for now, and we’ll be back in September with something we’re genuinely excited about. More on that soon.

Stay cool out there. See you at the table when the light is golden 🍓

From July, we switch to our summer schedule — as we do every year.

No lunch for a while — it’ll be back in September.
No lunch means more time to prep. More time to prep means better food. Simple as that.
Monday till Friday.
Open from 16:30 until 23:00.

NEW: Saturdays and Sundays we’re keeping free for something else. Private events, collabs, whatever you have in mind — come and tell us. Big or small, serious or spontaneous. We’ll talk.

Oh, and one more thing. We’re still looking for the right people. Kitchen, floor, flexi, student — if Elvire means something to you, send a message. You never know.

See you in summer. 🍓💘

NEWSFLASH!

January is already over! It’s almost laughable to realize that all I had to do was roll my eyes twice...

The past month has been all about rebalancing. Challenging times. On the other hand, it’s been incredibly rewarding to be able to reconnect with my creativity. After being out of the kitchen for 10 months, I’ve noticed a greater sense of je m’en foutisme. No compromises. Just cooking what feels right. Honestly, after all these years, I’m still trying to figure out who I am as a chef. But I’m getting better at it.

Go check our website for the current menu, and note the pork belly with the salsify and buttermilk. For me, this is Elvire. It immediately takes me back to her kitchen table and gives me some wild body memory.

But back to real business!

* We’re open this coming Saturday, and we’re offering a menu for €68. So Valentines, besties, unite. Menu is in the pics! Or you can also just eat à la carte. Just come by, we’ll make it cozy.
* We have committed ourselves to recharge batteries for the coming spring, so we will be closed for 2 weeks (from March 2nd to March 16th)
* During this period, we anticipate some interior changes, which we’re very much looking forward to. More character, more Elvire.
* We’re getting a lot of messages asking if we can serve burgers on other days besides Wednesday. So, due to our holiday, the week of February 23rd to 27th. Burgers all day.

Congratulations to everyone who made it to the end of this “newsletter”! 😅

I hope to see you soon! Reservations can be made via the website. 💘

Happy New Year to all our dearest customers and friends.
We wish you all the best, good health, and lots of energy.

Slow down, speed up. Follow the rhythm. Dance. And eat. In the best company, alone. Be welcome.

And let me thank everyone for their numerous visits in 2025. To be so eagerly 🥹 May it be another year full of indulgence.

But not without a final look back!

I strongly believe that people come along at the right time, as if everything is orchestrated. And therefore I’m very grateful for the past year.
In addition to fantastic flexi’s and students, Elvire 2025 will above all be and . 🙏🏻

Both on their way to new adventures but I’ll carry them with me into 2026. Enjoy! 💕
