My "French Connection" was a burger with Brie cheese. You order and pickup at the counter. They come ala carte or "menu" which adds fries or salad plus a drink. BTW, salad is decent. The place was loud and somewhat busy. People seem to be enjoying their time together and meals. In all a worthy option.

I'm not gonna say that the price of this food didn't hurt my soul a little bit (CHF 27.00 for a…read moreburger, fries, and a drink), but when I got my food, I didn't really care about the price as much anymore. The burger is nicely cooked, the bun is big and soft, and the toppings are all very balancing of one another. Having lived in Italy for the last 3 months, I have been dying for a good quality burger, and this was the perfect place to satisfy that craving.

We started out with the Pear Tartine and the Parma Tartine. Both were fantastic and very different. He had an Italian inspired Burger, Dolce Vita, from the specials and I had the Le Forestier Beef burger with Tilsit cheese, mushrooms, arugula and red wine and shallot mayonnaise. It was absolutely wonderful! I had heard they had some of the best burgers in Basel and I agree thus far. I look forward to coming back for brunch!

My husband ordered the Chasse burger (hunt burger), it was dear meat with cherry tomatoes and a prune sauce on the side. The prune sauce was a pleasant surprise, not too sweet and full of flavor! I ordered the goat cheese burger and it came with a beautiful slab of melty goat cheese with a honey and thyme sauce on the side. Both burgers were cooked to a perfect medium and came with a salad with tasty dressing and sunflower seeds and fries. Overall a touch pricy but the quality, taste and presentation made it worth while.

Oddly, it has an open-air deck but the location is right along a very busy 4-lane thoroughfare, so dust and exhaust would seriously impair outdoor dining! Those approaching on foot from lakeside should cross this road well before, else need to use a pedestrian overpass. Worth the walk from the hotel district.

You had to order inside, they give you a buzzer and you have to pick up your food when the buzzer goes off. We ordered three different things and all of them were equally delicious.
