With only 24 hours in Strasbourg, I was forced to make carefully researched decisions about where…read moreto eat (because I have food priorities when I travel). I am so glad we ended up in this tiny restaurant in Le Petit France for lunch! Since we didn't have breakfast, we opted to go big on lunch and this place fit that bill. The place is quaint and the proprietor was gracious and helpful with us Americans. The portions were generous and decadent. Don't come here looking for health food. Come here looking for hearty, authentic Alsatian dishes. You won't regret it. Onion soup - France meets Germany in this bowl. The onions in the soup was so tender and rather than being topped with a crouton and cheese, it was served on the side and we dipped it in the broth. So good. Foie gras - If you have any qualms about this delicacy, now is the time to get over them because it was the best foie I've ever had. The area is known for it, so there was no way I wasn't going to have some. Just do it. Don't not do it. Ham hock - No knife required. I was given a nice steak knife for it, touched the thing, and it fell apart. I put the knife down and just had at it with my fork. It was so ridiculously tender and rich. Came with potatoes (take some of the skin/fat from that meat and combine it with the potatoes as you dredge up the wine reduction with them) and a side salad (health food!). Order this. Just don't tell your cardiologist. Spaetzle gratin - And finally a dish of fat and carbs to round out or light lunch. It's like if Germany wanted mac n cheese, except way better. Also came with that healthy side salad.

Perfect!!! The experience was spectacular. The food is rustic traditional fare, with a beautiful…read moreelegance. Not stuffy or pretentious like some Michelin * places. The wine list is legendary with pricing dictated from the fact they bought the '85 Bordeaux when it came out in the market! The chef and his staff visited the table regularly chatted asked questions and actually cared about his clientele. The didn't g experience was designed for, and by the old school restaurant goer! Plus the chef grows, makes and produces wine on sight designed around his cuisine. Which enhances the experience even more! 5 star experience from beginning to the end. Merci!!

Great Hotel and cute restaurant…read more First off, love the hotel and the location - very convenient to the main areas. I felt safe and the hotel and surrounding area was clean. We basically walked everywhere. Impeccable service... from Front Desk to Bar to Restaurant, the staff were all amazing and friendly. We only had lunch at the restaurant when we first arrived - but even though I only had the Tomato Buratta Salad and it was really amazing!! Would I go back? Yes, for SURE!

5 Star Hotel in Center of the City…read more Pluses 1. We stayed two nights and it was an easy walk to train station and the main Christmas markets and also shopping 2. Spa was relaxing and massage 45 minutes for private couple massage was good and we were able to book last minute 3. Clarins products and free Evian in room 4. Breakfast Buffett 5. Nice bar area and good drinks Areas to improve 1. Bedding is less fluffy/full- pillows, mattress, duvet - we stayed at their sister property called Aloft for the previous night and we slept better there 2. We did spa service and we were recommended to bring our own robes and slippers from our room and were not offered a changing area or locker. We also were not provided any bag for our wet swimsuits 3. Spa menu is only offered in French online Highly recommended for understated Art Deco elegance. Service is helpful and refined.

So, we asked ourselves: where in Strasbourg do we eat good food from the cuisine alsacienne?…read moreAuthentic food made with love? Not touristy, not white cloths and overcrowded with waiters, not just standard bland chocroute? Well: Chez l'Oncle Freddy. You do not feel very cool going out for dinner with a baby and a stroller, trust me, but at Freddy we were invited in with stroller and baby, we felt extremely welcomed. The staff was friendly, helpful and no nonsens, the food was just great. Alsacienne cuisine with a touch of hipster. Perfect! The restaurant is fresh, clean and nicely decorated. Situated in the touristy streets of Petite France, facing the water front. Authentic and lovely. Is it touristy? No. Just the right amount of kitsch. Is it expensive? No. Really it's not. It's a gem. You're welcome.

We went by during their closed hours on a Christmas market weekend and voila, they were open! We…read morewere able to walk right in and get a table at 3pm which nobody eats at 3 so lucky us. 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.
