Brussels is expensive. Well, if it is expensive to eat there, I could only imagine how it costs to live.

- It is kinda expensive, but I guess most cities in Europe are - It is not always safe to walk alone at night through the city Well, that's about it I think :)

The best PRO of Brussels : it's multicultural without being a huge city like Paris or London... you can eat typical Nigerian, then learn Tibetan dance and go out in a Brazilian dance club... And you don't even need a car to go to all three places... And a remark to another answer about Brussels being expensive: I really don't think Brussels is expensive, but that's very relative of course... Eating is more expensive than Italy or Spain, but housing is much cheaper. Water costs as much as beer in most restaurants, that makes it expensive for water and cheap for beer ;-) Anyway, if you work for the EU institutions as an expat and with a formal contract, I wouldn't worry too much about the prices in Brussels ;-)
