It is however extremely good and is not very far off a single Michelin star. Last time I went there was with my parents. We were given a choice of several entrées, several main dishes, and desserts. A wine expert approached us to help pick up wines that would marry best with the meals we picked up. Friendly staff, nice interior and relaxed atmosphere with rays of sunlight shining through the window onto our table definitely contributed to a great mood, but the best - the food - was yet to come. My mother ordered a grilled crayfish with some caviar sprinkled on top. What we didn't realize that the grilling process would be a show, happening right at our table, in front of our very eyes. In addition to the show, it tasted amazing and was preceded with an "aperitif" with some "aperitif" wines. As to main dishes, they were excellent - the fish I had was both amazing in presentation, flavor, and taste; complemented perfectly by a dessert that was coming afterward. Overall, it was an excellent location for spending quality time and tasting some amazing meals. While this place is a bit too expensive for a regular visit, I am definitely looking forward to the next opportunity to come back there and can but recommend it!

Les différents mets -telle la très cotée "caille en croûte farcie de foie de canard"- n'ont pas de prix en soi. C'est l'assortiment composé par chacun qui entre en compte. Le principe de "menu carte" est un puzzle libre, à partir d'une carte modifiée toutes les six semaines où foies poêlés et poissons ont le beau rôle. Une formule "affaire", pensée pour être servie rapidement le midi, ou un salivant menu "prestige" complètent l'attirail. Le plus dur sera de choisir un vin parmi la cinquantaine de variétés alsaciennes et des crus de douze autres régions. Autres atouts non négligeables de ce paisible restaurant, la véranda séparée et surtout une terrasse recouverte d'une glycine centenaire.

I'm totally confused on why they are not Michelin rated . For all the silly reviews with low star…read moreratings , come on , there is a McDonald's down the street and that's where you belong. 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.

While visiting…read morethis German influenced region, we wanted to try a regional meal, so we found this restaurant just by browsing the neighborhood and saw a line, so we decided to get a table! 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!

We also enjoyed a bottle of rose - the wine prices are excellent throughout Strasbourg. Highly recommended.

Our waitress was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and very helpful in guiding us through the menu and assisting with our selections. To start, I enjoyed a glass of Gewürztraminer paired with the house foie gras, followed by a steak tartare served with frites. The boys shared a large seafood tower, which they thoroughly enjoyed--there was nothing left but the crab/lobster shells by the end of the meal. The other entrées and desserts were equally impressive, with everything prepared and presented beautifully. The combination of excellent food, attentive service, and a sophisticated setting made for a memorable dining experience.
