The interior was very rustic and not a French country rustic or even a cabin, but more like a workshop. It was comfortably warm and very tight between the tables. We perused the menu which is offered online in English as well as reviews and quickly surmised that we had to order these three dishes: SOUPE A L'OIGNON GRATINEE ....... 10,50 € CUISSE DE CANARD SUR LIT DE CHOUCROUTE ..... 24,90 BOUCHEE A LA REINE .... 22,90 € Onionsoup, not French Onion soup because there can be no other in France! This version was very onion forward but I could taste butter. I was surprised that there wasn't any dark broth...just onions and what tasted like stuck from onions. The croutons were amazing with a baked sharp cheese of some sort. It was good if you like white onions. Sauerkraut with Duck leg & Potatoes -Thus was spectacular as the duck skin was so flavorful and the meat was so rich, the sauerkraut really helps break up the rich flavors. The potatoes were good but a bit under-seasoned Vol-au-vent Veal, chicken, mushrooms Creamsauce & Spaetzel was pretty good but a little one note. The mushrooms were cooked in a white wine that gave them an amazing flavor. The rest of the dish was mild in flavor. A very kid friendly dish. Cute place with a view of the river if you're lucky enough to get those tables. Decent food and very friendly service.

Since we arrived later in the afternoon, we decided to have dinner here based on the reviews and her suggestion. Wow what a fantastic experience we ordered the onion soup as an appetizer to share, which was creamy and delicious with chunks of bread and lots of cheese on top. My husband ordered the Cordon Bleu. Which was nicely presented and had a generous filling with cheese and ham inside. I opted for the beef of the day which was a grilled flank steak served with potatoes and a salad. I am very picky about my beef and this was fantastic grilled to perfection, medium rare and absolutely fantastic. I rarely finish a meal, but I ate every bit of this and enjoyed every bite. We had a nice dry riesling to go along with our meal and ordered crème brûlée for dessert. The service was also incredible attentive, but not smothering. Annie was kind to us non-French speakers and provided a menu in English. I would suggest making a reservation in the evening, although we did not have to wait the place filled up as we were there for a couple hours. The ambience is very sweet and cozy. I cannot recommend this place enough. Please give it a try they do have a very nice lunch special that I would suggest taking advantage of.

Slip on into the delicious-smelling pizzeria, wave hello to the bartender as you're walking, and go on through the double silver doors in the back. Once there, you're in a small hallway. Which door leads to the speakeasy? It's hidden, and takes a special trick to open the swinging panel into the next room. Once you've got it, duck into the small, velvet-lined door into a true speakeasy, with a prohibition-era throwback feel. No pictures are allowed, so my description will have to suffice, but imagine high ceilings, chandeliers, and velvet-lined barstools. A friendly cocktail waitress will bring you a menu, which gives a cheeky nod to other taboo indulgences by way of including the Marquis de Sade. I had an Old Fashioned (what else would one order in a speakeasy?) made with Bulleit Bourbon. If that's not your favorite, there are a number of other bourbon whiskies on the menu to try. We sat, sipped, and spoke easily for a spell before heading out. All in all, a great way to cap off the evening!

This restaurant is now going to be haunting me in my dreams it was that good . First off, the onion tart is crack. The perfect crust with fluffy eggs and onions and bacon. I would say generally I'm not the biggest fan of quiches, but the onion tart is a must. Then we had the white asparagus special with a soft boiled egg and lentils with the most flavorful dressing ever. I was with my two daughters and wife and we split the onion tart and asparagus special as an appetizer, and literally a fight almost broke out among us. Then we split the steak, pork filet and potato pancakes. Just absolutely delicious. My older daughter does not like salad and she actually couldn't believe she liked the side salad that came with her steak. Not the lame iceberg bagged salad mix you get it some restaurants. This was frise, endive and radicchio in a vinaigrette that was spot on. Best french fries ever as a side on the pork fillet. Incredible home fries as the side on the steak. I wish I would've taken photos to post, but the dishes were getting destroyed as soon as they came out. We had the rhubarb pie as a dessert and Panna cotta. We are coming back tomorrow for lunch and getting the asparagus and tart again. It was that good.

The restaurant is very cozy and it was fairly busy yet we found a table after a short wait! We started off with a couple of appetizers: sunflower/pumpkin soup and eggs/potato quiche! For the main entrees, we ordered regional dishes such as sausage/pork with sauerkraut along with a very delicious venison with mashed potates! The food at this restaurant is extremely delicious and their cooking is much more German influenced rather than typical french food! Overall this was a great lunch experience and we also got to enjoy the Alsac cuisine which was an added bonus!
