What a special find!! You can't see it off the main road, but I happened to walk around the plaza it is in in Tierra Verde this afternoon and looked in the window and thought how cute it looked inside and the menu looked amazing, so I decided to take my son tonight. It was so so good!! I actually have been telling everyone I've spoken with tonight about it and how they've got to try it, different than anything else around here and very very good!! Vanessa was our waitress and is from Germany and her recommendations were spot on. I can't rave about the experience and food enough. This place is an absolute must!!! read more

Delicious- just go! The vibe is pretty homie gives French bistro vibes and feels like an old living room throughout most of the restaurant. Service was friendly, quick and helpful and prices were more than fair for the flavor. We went for brunch and everything we had was very tasty- I didn't use a single condiment, which is rare the French toast was amazing. It's honestly the perfect amount (non American portion), but you will want that more. We also had the crêpe V something and the rustic omelette both exquisite. I will be happy ordering this every time, but I'm also curious to explore a few of the other options. The menu isn't super dense, but we're thinking of trying the sweet crêpe next time and maybe a desert. Pro tip add some of the syrupy whipped cream from your French toast to a cappuccino and enjoy. Better than most lattes. 10 out of 10 would brunch again! read more

Quaint French Restaurant in Tierra Verde. Authentic feel of a bistro when you walk in. Very friendly staff. All of our dishes were very tasty but the Steak Tartare would've benefited by toast points to add a crunchy layer of flavor. The French fries helped a little bit but I'm used to always getting toast points or similar when eating a tartare. We have friends in the area and may revisit here the next time we're in Tierra Verde. This seems like a great regular visit option for people living in the area. read more

This restaurant had been our favorite for many years since its opening almost 9 years ago. When several restaurants are cutting the portions and decrease the quality of their products, Alsace French Bistro consistently maintains the quality of the dishes while offering different specials to its devoted customers. Today, I tried the seared salmon over lentils with baby arugula salad. The salmon was perfectly cooked and the lentils were delicious. My husband's lamb chops with noodles dish was flavorful and very tasty. We finished our dinner with a delightful lavender crème brûlée. All the portions were very generous for the price paid. It was a lovely dinner in a cosy atmosphere of the small restaurant with the very welcoming service. I highly recommend! read more

This has to be one of the best meals I have had in the Tampa Bay Area. It honestly felt like I was in a Michelin star restaurant. What I enjoyed though was it was casual & comfortable inside, while at the same time they are serving fancy & perfect meals. My friends joined me there & we started off ordering soup. I had a curry coconut carrot soup that was beyond tasty. It had a tiny zing of spice to it that we discovered came from fresh ginger mixed in it. Then the main entree came which was the most comforting & delicious plate of food I have had in a very long time. My entree was medallions of chicken smothered in a cream sauce with mushrooms & plums. You haven't lived until you've tried this. One of the sides on the plate was a small salad with a very mild & pleasant dressing. The other side was an amazing German-inspired red cabbage. It was mildly brined or pickled, & I simply couldn't get enough of it. The service was amazing & friendly. As I said the food was fancy & a bit costly. But inside it was like being in someone's French home & super casual. This is truly a place to confidently go on special occasions. read more

What a fantastic restaurant and dining experience. We had reservations at 7:30 and were very warmly greeted and served by the same individual. The ambience and chef owners skill and influences were obvious and a true treat rare for central Florida. We enjoyed a bottle of an an Alsacian white and my wife have the duck which she said was outstanding, while I had one of the best Oso Buco's ever with a side of wonderful red cabbage. We finished the evening with an extraordinary crème brûlée. read more

Found this spot while vacationing in St. Pete Beach. We were looking for a less touristy dining experience and found Alsace. We had never had French cuisine and thought we'd give it a try. So glad we did. The restaurant is tucked back into a little strip mall. The restaurant decor is quint with a French bistro vibe. Dined on a Tuesday evening and it was mostly full. Glad we made a reservation. Seemed like we were the only vacationers in the restaurant. We had a nice bottle of French Pino Gris which seemed fairly priced. My wife had the chicken cordon bleu, it was delicious and too big a portion for her to finish. I had to take care of the rest. She got the rice as a side. Nothing special there. I got the chicken with prunes in a brown mushroom sauce. Very flavorful with a nice contrast having the prunes and the savory gravy. I opted for the potatoes as a side. They were pan fried and very flavorful. The side salads had a nice walnut vinaigrette. For dessert we had the special chocolate bread pudding with vanilla ice cream. A nice sweet treat to top off a great meal. Our first foray into French cuisine was a hit. read more

We had the most delicious meal at Alsace French Bistro. It's tucked away at the end of strip mall but.....what a gem! My husband had steak poivre and I had cordon bleu. Both dishes were delicious. Portions are generous so please bring your appetite. We couldn't pass up on dessert--lemon tart for him and chocolate mouse for me. Heavenly! Highly recommend read more

When you walk in the setting feels like France. It a very Alsace menu from salad Nicoise, escargot, and crepes for entrees and desserts. We started with escargot which was in a small bowl with a delicious sauce. It was so good it could have been a soup. My wife had the filet and I had the salmon over lentil beans. My favorite dessert is the crepe Suzette. It's a charming place for a relaxing dinner. read more

Vanessa was great. Very knowledgeable about the menu and ingredients. Everything we had was awesome. Cozy and inviting. French onion soup, beet soup, escargot, filet, crème brûlée, and French wine. It felt like we dropped into a French village for an exceptional meal. read more

Ate there for Thanksgiving dinner. Had the filet with seared potatoes and brown gravy. It was superb. I would have had the waitstaff dress more formally for a holiday meal--but that is just me. We always dress for the holidays. Food was fast, excellent and it was a very pleasant experience. read more

Excellent restraunt. The service is very good and the food is prepared lovely. We have been to the Sunday brunch several times and Quich and the Croque madame are my 2 favorites. Dinner favorites are usually the fish of the day, duck, or osso-buco. Reasonably prices - highly recommend. read more

Such a wonderful hidden gem! If not for Yelp, never would have found it in the back of a strip mall. Started with the tartiglette appetizer that was perfect! Loved the thin pastry, mushroom and cheese tart. We had 3 main courses that we all shared: shrimp and scallops with potatoes, shrimp in vodka sauce and a salmon crepe with a side of beets. Everything was A+, too full for dessert and had leftovers to boot! The restaurant is adorable and very comfortable. Definitely will return for brunch and dinner again. read more

We came for brunch and as expected (based on the 4.6 rating), the food was delicious. I savored every bite. I liked it so much I took home a second meal! The restaurant is charmingly decorated, too. The staff was friendly & warm, and provided great service. And there's private parking in the small shopping center so easy to park. I'll add more specifics later, but I wanted get our enthusiasm for this restaurant out there to the Yelpers looking for great French food. YUMMMMMMMM! We're so happy we tried Alsace We'll be back often. Looking forward to dinner here very soon! read more

Amazing environment with even better food! Small personal environment. Great staff! read more

A delightful experience! From Veronica our charming server, to our appetizer, to each of our meals, and finally to one of the best desserts I've ever had. We had the French onion soup, osso buco, chicken cordon bleu, filet au poivre, and the brioche french toast with Biscoff butter cream. Everything was fantastic. We rarely order dessert but a friend told us about it... trust me do it. Our plan is to work our way through the entire menu! read more

This is a special little French restaurant tucked away in the corner of the charming strip center on Tierra Verde. The food is fantastic- I have tried almost everything. The best is always their specials. Best kept secret- their fries. Skinny and just the right crisp. Good wine, good food and French country atmosphere, romantic & charming character. Prices are reasonable. The staff is wonderful. I will be back. read more

This is a tiny French jewel in Tierra Verde I just went for brunch and had a delicious Crepe. I used to live in France and I found it very authentic. Loved it read more

I love their food. It's a small gorgeous little Bistro where the food is outstanding. My favorite is their weekend brunch. The Eggs Benedict are just amazing with fresh, homemade Hollandaise sauce. I was just there for my birthday with some friends. Chris, our waiter, was excellent and accommodating since I arrived a little late (oops). I am anxious to try out their new dinner menue and maybe we can get in tomorrow. Since the place is small I would strongly recommend reservations. Bon Appetit :-) read more

The food and the service were both excellent. The location downtown made it convenient for other plans we had.

This was on my list of local places to try solo because they don't have anything interesting for my vegetarian wife. Therefore, solo I was tonight. This is a very cute restaurant in Tierra Verde. The inside is cuter than the generic Florida beach strip mall vibe going on outside. Got sat right away but the gentleman warned me he was alone and just caught up after getting slammed. Well for someone working the entire front of the house alone, he did a great job. I never waited long for anything and he was attentive and friendly. When I used to be a server, if I was alone and managing a dozen tables, I would have been a miserable human being. I ordered the French onion soup, the duck entree, and roasted potatoes. The soup was excellent. Very rich. They might have added spoonfuls of fat or something to make it so rich. The duck was great. Crispy but moist and a lot of flavor. The salad it came with was very good. The potatoes were essentially just potatoes in oil. Good but nothing special. There aren't many French restaurants in the area but I am going 4 stars because the others are better, even if just a tad. Left Bank Bistro, Parts of Paris, Parlor House, and Gulf Bistro all are a bit better. But, I recognize that's subjective and also the gap isn't very wide. By all means, come here for a delicious French meal. You will enjoy it. But in the end, you have to rank them somehow and this was great, but not the best. read more

What an amazing experience, from the mind blowingly delicious food, wonderful drinks, fantastic desserts to a charming and lovely atmosphere. I cannot say enough wonderful things about our lovely hostess/ server Diane who is an absolute pleasure, she's friendly, knowledgeable and extremely attentive. My husband and I ordered the pate for an appetizer, poulet moutarde and the house special of Saurkraute and sausage for entrees and the lavender creme Brule along with the pear chocolate tarte for dessert, followed by an espresso and cappuccino. Don't judge me, trust me when I say, once you get to Alsace you'll want to order everything under the sun as well! To add to an already amazing experience to our surprise our check beyond reasonable for the quality and amount of food we got. If you haven't tried it yet, you're absolutely missing out on this hidden French gem! read more

This place is the definition of a hidden gem! It's tucked in the back of an unassuming (but cute) shopping plaza, but once you walk inside, you're surrounded by quaint decor and a cozy, cheerful interior. Our table was right by a window in the back, which looked out over a grassy area and the water. Needless to say, we wanted to try everything, so we had a tough time choosing our dishes. My boyfriend and I split the tarte flambee gratinee, which is a crispy flatbread with swiss cheese, bacon (though it was more like pieces of ham) and caramelized onions. We also shared the French onion soup, and both of our starters were delicious. I just wish there was more cheese on the soup, but that's a minor thing. For our entrees, I opted for the steak au poivre, which comes with crispy potatoes and a small salad, while my boyfriend got the special, which was a French shepherd's pie. Both entrees were fantastic, and we cleaned our plates. Even though we were feeling ourselves getting full, everything had been so good that we knew we couldn't pass up dessert. I chose the chocolate mousse and he got the lavender creme brulee. These were wonderful... I liked the mousse more, he preferred the creme brulee -- but both were mouthwateringly good. We are already looking forward to returning for brunch, and are keeping an eye on their Facebook page too since they post their specials for the week there. I can't wait to go back! read more

Don't let the strip mall location food you. Dinner at this small French bistro was out of this world! During the week, they open at 5pm for dinner. Started with some Bordeaux wine, French onion soup and escargot (served with a few slices of crusty bread and in a cream sauce rather than a garlic butter) the flavors explode in your mouth. Dinner for two: FILET MIGNON BEURRE (Filet mignon wrapped in bacon with garlic butter) and ESCALOPE PANNE A LA CREME (Chicken cutlet breaded fried served with mushroom cream sauce) Entrees include a small salad and our choice of a side dish was the red cabbage & these carmel crusted potatoes. Everything including the service was pleasurable! Will be back soon for their weekend brunch, we hear the crepes are heaven! read more

Went here for brunch, their food was incredible. Might be a nice to place to visit before a day at Fort DeSoto or after an early morning there, since it's on the way. Just fyi it's quite a small restaurant, and I think reservations are recommended. I had the Brie and prosciutto crepe with an egg on top. It was the best crepe I've had. Otherwise, they have lots of other egg and cheese dishes for brunch, like egg croissants, croque mosier (you can add an egg to make a croque madame), and a dish that sounds like an egg casserole. They also have sweet crepes -- crepe Suzette (orange), lemon curd crepe, nutella -- and a few pastries. They also have dinner, which I'm sure is fantastic. But I've only been here for brunch. If you can make it here, I highly recommend! read more

Quaint and charming french bistro. Came for brunch and will be back to try dinner!! KEY TAKEAWAYS: - Tartiglette - A very rich and tasty cheesy potato casserole with bacon and onion - $15. Came w small salad of lightly dressed arugula. Flavorful and heavy - which is exactly how our server described it. Ate about half but really enjoyed - next time would go halfsies getting this and something lighter - perhaps a salad. A great sharing dish! SEE PIC. - My friend had one of the crepes with ham and an egg on too and really enjoyed as well. - Honestly, everything that went past us from the kitchen looked delish! Will be back for beef tartare! read more
