We four arrived at L'Ami Schutz for dinner on a weeknight in September. Given the restaurant's good…read morereviews, we thought we might have to wait for a table. As we entered a young female server was placing small folded sheets of paper with numbers written on them on all the empty tables. Only one table inside was occupied, by a party of two. The server asked us if we had a reservation. We said no. She looked around at the empty tables and said, "Take any table you want." We took a corner table. Two young gentlemen entered the restaurant after us and sat at a table near ours. Ten minutes passed before a male server approached the table with the two gentlemen, handed them menus, chatted with them a minute and then disappeared. More minutes passed. I went back to the kitchen and the male server was deep in conversation with a cook. I asked him if he spoke English. He said yes. I said we had been seated 20 minutes ago and had yet to be offered water, a menu, etc. He apologized profusely, and when I pointed out that he had brought menus to the table near ours, he said he assumed we had already been helped. He said they were having trouble with the female server, and he had only just been called in to help out and would bring us menus right away. As we waited more minutes, a young couple with a dog entered. They stood in the alcove some minutes more, looking around to see if anyone would seat them. Eventually the male waiter reappeared, walked over to them, greeted them jovially, bent down and began hugging and brushing and playing with the dog. We bid them Au Revoir as we exited the restaurant, the waiter protesting that he was just on his way to our table.

What a lovely spot to have lunch or dinner in when visiting Strasbourg. Located in old town, this…read morefamily run business looks like it hasn't changed since it was built oh so many years ago. It's quaint exterior will draw you in and the cozy interior or lovely patio is the perfect place to enjoy a traditional Alsatian meal. We stopped in for lunch and while they had a prix fixe menu with specials of the day- since they have an extensive wine list- we chose to order a variety of starters and entrees to share around the table and pair with some of their excellent wines. Be warned- the portion sizes are huge so if you are not eating with a group- be careful about the amount of food that you order. We started with 6 appetizers- everything from herring with apples, goat cheese with tomatoes and zucchini, fois gras, head cheese, crawfish salad, and a pate. All were excellent and the fois gras was so good we ordered an additional one to enjoy! As for our entrees- good thing we split those as well. There was chicken breast with confit and olives, la choucroute two ways- one with 9 kinds of meat and sausages, and the other with 3 different fish. The sauerkraut on the fish version was so sweet and buttery it was hard to believe it was sauerkraut ( it was tasty, and this from a girl who does not like sauerkraut!) The service is casual and friendly. If you don't speak French- the menu does have English translations on it so you can bridge the communication gap that way. Our lunch per person with all kinds of wine and food only ran about $35 Euro which was really reasonable. And remember if you go for lunch- they had several specials on the day we were there- all reasonably priced. If you are looking for a traditional Alsatian restaurant located in in a great spot right by the "covered bridge" in Strasbourg- check out Restaurant Ami Schutz. Exactly what you think a restaurant in this town should look and taste like! And even better? There were more locals in the place than tourists so you know it is a good choice!

We ended up ordering all types of beef - from the tartare, carpaccio, house special, and the skewers. The skewers were filet and sooooo tender and flavorful. The service was exceptional and made us feel so welcome. This is a hidden gem for locals and so happy that we found it. Highly recommended!

Starting with a lovely rose champagne, we were off to a dining delight * Amuse Bouche of sauteed mushrooms in sesame oil * Cauliflower soup with black truffle * Linguine with marscapone cream and black truffle - they certainly did not skimp on the truffle - it was incredible & my favorite of the meal! * Cheese course - this was huge and we could have easily shared one * Intermezzo of custard with passion fruit * The dessert kind of lost me - vanilla ice cream with chocolate and black truffle shavings. I guess I was hoping for the truffle to have been infused into the ice cream, as I have experienced at Millennium Restaurant in San Francisco. With the truffle and chocolate shaved onto the ice cream, it provided for a more bland experience * Post-dessert tray was all kinds of delicious - madeleines and chocolates! This is a very small restaurant so be sure to make reservations as early as you can because they were totally booked & it's totally worth it!!
