Our waitress didn't speak English and we only know maybe four words of Francais, but it worked out well! I ordered the fleischschnacka, and it came in a very flavourful broth. I think that's how it's supposed to be, although my only other time ordering this dish had come plated dry with tomatoes on top and potatoes on the side. I much prefer the saucy version. They were really good, except one of the two was mostly pasta and not enough meat. It came with a small green salad that was dressed with a very nice sweetish dressing. My husband ordered the pork cheeks in pinot noir sauce and it was soooo good! Superbly tender and sweet and savory. He had a choice of fries or spaetzle, and of course, we got the spaetzle. Finished the meal with a couple of espressos. It was the perfect last meal. There's a whole story in the beginning of the menu that explains how the restaurant came to be. Google Translate could not adequately translate it for us. Would be very interested to hear from someone else what it says!

Sensational. Forget all the old reviews. Extremely nice…read morestaff, but the food was even better. I had kidney in mustard sauce from the daily recommendation and os a moeille. This was excellent. The kidney were perfectly cooked and the sauce perfect. The os have been huge and a dream. My wife had roast beef with sauce beanaise. She loved it. We found that place off site the full walkways and enjoyed the silence. It was THE hidden gem in Colmar. The reviews look(ed) terrible, but this was all outdated. The menu gave us the flavour of something different. Our last evening turned into an outstanding experience. The dessert - a soup of Quetch (plums) was amazing as well. Really fabulous! Go for the specialities! Out of assessment we had a special experience: we recognized that the wine was omitted on the bill and mentioned it to the waiter. He thought about it and mentioned that is was his fault so we got it for free. An excellent Pinot Gris. As we ordered in French we could not express our pleasure properly so we do it this way. Just to mention one thing: the marc de pinot noir marc was excellent.

I am pleased to be the first English speaker to review this wonderful gem of a restaurant. When I…read morefirst entered this restaurant, I felt that I had hit a true French restaurant. Unpretentious, (the name roughly translates to the "Table of the Market Salesman" friendly and warm, its all about having a good time. I very highly recommend this restaurant. Now, for some details . . . First thing you have to know, is that you must reserve a table in advance! This restaurant is very popular with the locals as well as the odd, well-informed tourist. I saw a few unhappy couples turned away due to the lack of space. The restaurant is truly a small gem and very much worth the visit if you can. The second thing you should know is that the hostess / owner / waitress, Isabelle speaks perfectly good English so language should not be a problem. Her partner, Marc resides mostly in the kitchen working his magic, but he did pop his head out from time to time to see that everything was all right. It was more than all right! Finally, what can I say about the food? My girlfriend had the appetizer of snails, and I had the appetizer of fois gras. The snails were amongst the best I ever had - and since the portion was abundant, served shelled and in a charming glass jar, my generous partner allowed me to sop up the remaining sauce after she had finished the actual escargot. Was it divine? It was divine. I'm a bit of a fois gras fanatic. It's hard to get here in the USA, and when you do, it's very pricey! At Isabelle and Marc's the fois gras was, literally, as good as it gets. It is served sautéed in a pan (not in a pate) with a wonderful side of fresh fig. I wholeheartedly recommend both these appetizers to anyone that wants an outstanding rendition of typical French fare. Our main courses were both wonderful and very memorable. Mari, in keeping with her non-meat preference had the fish, and I had the lamb. They were both wonderful!! Don't think that the French portions are small, we practically rolled out of the place and that's having split a dessert! One final counsel. . . if you can, have some of the eau de vie that they serve there. This is a very strong alcohol similar to vodka, but infused with whatever fruity thing they make with it. I had the pear and Mari had the apple. Wow! If you are familiar with these drinks, you will see that the quality of the eau de vie served here are truly outstanding. Overall, this was not just a great meal, it was a wonderful experience. Isabelle made us feel very much at home, like we were honored guests, not just tourists passing though. Everyone else at the restaurant was (at least) speaking French, and if you can read the French reviews, you will often see something to the effect that this is where the French go for their French food. Please go, and let me know what you think! Say "bonjour" to Isabelle and Marc for me!

After eating at La Table Du Brocanteur last night here's my advice to tourists who are epicurean…read moreenthusiasts: (1) check in to your hotel, (2) call 03.89.23.45.57 and make a dinner reservation. This place was filled by 8:00 on a Tuesday night and no one looked ready to leave in less than two hours. When we entered just before 7:00 no other customers had yet arrived and most tables contained a "Reserved" sign. The gracious lady who seated us took the time to read the menu, including the specials, to us English-speaking folks. She even allowed us to sample two different Pinot Noir's so we got the one we both liked. Who even bothers to that nowadays?! My better half ordered the Escargots and the Cordon Bleu nature and I ordered the Spring Roll special and the L'onglet De Boeuf medium rare. Both starters arrived pippin' hot and were delicious. The American-sized entrees were as good as we have ever had. The potatoes, cauliflower, zucchini and carrots were amazing as were the shallots covering my perfectly cooked medium rare steak. It was an experience not just a meal. Though it took a bit of effort to find this fine gem in the Colmar maze, it was definitely worth it. Don't forget the reservation.
