Then, salad with cheese (not much salad), and mushrooms were both flavorful appys. For entrees, bf got the chicken over salad and I had traditional trout over sauerkraut! Both were very good.

We enjoyed everything which included the duck, salads, goat cheese, escargot and gazpacho soup. Ample bread provided. The fries, which came with the duck, were a bit greasy but good. The local bottled iced tea was very tasty but a tad on the sweet side. We split it into 2 glasses and added water. Fabulous wine from Cahors. Creme Brulee was the best I've ever had thus far. The garnish was both adorable and edible (see photos). Reservations recommend. We visited in July 2019 and they opened at 7:00 p.m.

Food is exceptional. Yeah, I have some moral qualms about foie gras...but the creamy, velvety, goose butter scraped over some nicely charred bread is a dish one must try here. My son ordered a ham hock dish--amazed to have something people at home use to flavor greens made into a signature-level dish...falling off the bone, tender as can be, perfectly seasoned. I had the baeckoffe (like a casserole), which was also delectable, but I remain envious of that ham! Ambience is beautiful. The interior has an old world, classic feel. Outside is the usual European patio right next the the bustling sidewalk...the essence of relaxation. Service is fantastic. Helpful and knowledgeable. When I make it back to Colmar, I'll be making another visit.

I asked about the Alsace chocolate, only to be told that was it! Informing them I didn't want it (4 euros for Nutella!), they got mad and refused to cancel the order.

Our favorites:…read more* Scallops on the half-shell with dried tomato butter -- very flavorful * Alsatian charcuterie platter -- very colorful * Ham braised with Munster cheese -- very cheesy We also got the baked salmon with noodles, which was just okay. The salmon wasn't seasoned well, so it was kind of bland (1 star off). Aside from the salmon, everything else was great. This includes the Kougelhopf ice cream cake with Marc de Gewurztraminer and passionfruit mousse. During Christmas, I heard there is chestnut mousse. As if Colmar doesn't already look like a cute town ready for Christmas, having chestnut mousse would make it feel even more festive.

Nice little place slightly off the beaten path in Colmar.

But ultimately it's a nice local place with some tables outside on the sidewalk and quite a few inside. They even have a mobile air conditioner! For lunch the food was very good, and we didn't mind the wait too much. I'd rather eat here than one of the huge touristy restaurants on the main square a few blocks away. I would definitely return, but hope for quicker service next time.

Colmar is a wonderful town. And there are countless dining options. We did some research and chose…read morethis restaurant for our first night in town. We made a reservation several weeks before. Which was a good thing, since they had to turn away several guests that night. Our English Bulldog was welcome here as well, which was very nice of them. The menu in this Michelin restaurant is compact, but has something for every taste. It's modern french cuisine I'd say. We ordered a glass of local Riesling with our starters. There was a complementary Amuse-Bouche. A kind of cream-puff, but savoury with a creamy, cheesy filling. A really tasty appetizer. For starters we chose the Galantine duck and foie gras and trout carpaccio. Both fantastic choices. Wonderful duck and foie gras (mi-cuit), matched the Riesling perfectly. And the trout (pink/orange) was better quality-wise than most salmon in any other restaurants we know. High quality, fresh, highly enjoyable. For the mains we ordered the Veal shank confit and the Milk-fed lamb shoulder. Both excellent dishes. A bottle of red with that . I know duck confit, but veal confit (72 hours) was new to me. What a tender, juicy piece of meat. Actually: Piece of art! And the sauce...heaven! Confit is something you need to try. And this place here would be perfect for that. But also the lamb was wonderful. Equally tender, very smooth and with a rich sauce. You wouldn't even know it's lamb taste-wise, it was just perfect. There wasn't any room for desserts after this rich meal. A really fantastic dinner in a wonderful restaurant with a classic and cosy setting. It was pretty packed, so the staff was pretty busy. But they were quick and attentive, just didn't really have time for a quick chat or so. Price-wise it was fair. Around 150 Euros for two glasses of white, a bottle of red, two starters and two mains. For this quality? I would actually even say more than fair. A great place.

Reservations are recommended. And so did we. Our English Bulldog was welcome inside as well. Besides à la carte choices there are fixed-price menus. Starter/main, main/dessert or all three. The menu looked promising, so we chose all three courts. And that was a great choice. For under 40 Euros a person you get three wonderful dishes. For starters we've had the octopus-salad and the grilled foie gras. Octopus was cooked to perfection, fresh and crunchy salad. The Foie Gras was a winner as well. Nicely grilled, silky and smooth inside. As it should be. Before the starters we got served a complementary Amuse-Bouche. Bacalau and tomato cazpacho. A great start. For the mains we've had the grilled fish with mushrooms and potatoes and the beef in wine sauce with veggies and fries. Both meals again cooked to perfection. The chef knows what he's doing here. Fish cooked to the point and the beef oh so tender, nice wine reduction to go with. Had a bottle of wine to go with. For desserts we've had a trio of ice cream, macaron and mousse and a chocolate fendant with ice cream. All pieces of art. But not only good looking, great tasting as well. All dishes here were perfectly prepared. Kudos to the chef. But also the staff was wonderful and friendly.
