Which was a good thing, since they had to turn away several guests that night. Our English Bulldog was welcome here as well, which was very nice of them. The menu in this Michelin restaurant is compact, but has something for every taste. It's modern french cuisine I'd say. We ordered a glass of local Riesling with our starters. There was a complementary Amuse-Bouche. A kind of cream-puff, but savoury with a creamy, cheesy filling. A really tasty appetizer. For starters we chose the Galantine duck and foie gras and trout carpaccio. Both fantastic choices. Wonderful duck and foie gras (mi-cuit), matched the Riesling perfectly. And the trout (pink/orange) was better quality-wise than most salmon in any other restaurants we know. High quality, fresh, highly enjoyable. For the mains we ordered the Veal shank confit and the Milk-fed lamb shoulder. Both excellent dishes. A bottle of red with that . I know duck confit, but veal confit (72 hours) was new to me. What a tender, juicy piece of meat. Actually: Piece of art! And the sauce...heaven! Confit is something you need to try. And this place here would be perfect for that. But also the lamb was wonderful. Equally tender, very smooth and with a rich sauce. You wouldn't even know it's lamb taste-wise, it was just perfect. There wasn't any room for desserts after this rich meal. A really fantastic dinner in a wonderful restaurant with a classic and cosy setting. It was pretty packed, so the staff was pretty busy. But they were quick and attentive, just didn't really have time for a quick chat or so. Price-wise it was fair. Around 150 Euros for two glasses of white, a bottle of red, two starters and two mains. For this quality? I would actually even say more than fair. A great place.

I had the beef "gro sel" which I saw the lady at the next table eat, and it looked good. My husband had the bibalakas with smoked trout, which was good, but not quite what he was hoping for (we didn't really know what to expect). The kids had sausage and spatzel/french fries. I liked my food. Just the right portion and taste for me. Dessert was good as well. I had the black forest cake, and my husband had the pie of the day, which was a crumble raspberry pie. Overall, a solid family friendly restaurant in old town Colmar.

After a long day of walking around Colmar, we had our mind set on dining outside. We were able to…read moreget a table at Chez Hansi without a reservation with just a short wait (we could have been seated right away indoors). We started with a couple of spritzes and a big bottle of tap water. We ordered a few main courses to share -- the winemaker "salad," which was too much meat and cheese with very little lettuce; the goat cheese and honey flambee, which was decent but we had a better one earlier in the day down the road and the original bibalakas, which were our favorite item. It was a good meal but not one of our favorites. Maybe we didn't order the right things.

I figured if we get there right when dinner service starts at 7, then we should be able to get a table, but I was so wrong. They were already fully booked for the rest of the night, and closed for the next two days. I was so disappointed thinking that I won't be and to try it based on all the reviews. Since we were staying around the corner from there. I asked the guy if I can get take out. He did me a favor and was able to accommodate that. I saw a "take away available" sign hidden when I was waiting for my order, so I am pretty sure that they weren't taking take out orders either. We took it back to our Airbnb, and it was so yummy. We got the Munster and the Gratinée. I'm so glad that we were able to try this place during our trip. Thank you so much to the kind staff who was able to accommodate my take out order. This place is a MUST GO in Colmar, and make sure to make a reservation.

Meats were tender but a bit too salty for me. Love the veal's head. The menu said white cabbage in white wine but it was basically sauerkraut which I'm not a fan. Service was ok.

After we placed our order, they brought an amuse-bouche for the table. For our starters, we ordered Les Escargots d'Alsace de Monsieur Barbisan au beurre persillé and La Salade au Munster pané de Gilbert et Magret Fumé. Les escargots were hands down the best escargots I have ever had! I'm not sure what sort of magical parsley butter they use, but good Lord, this was pure heaven! The Munster salad and smoked duck breast were good. The cheese was breaded and fried and paired well with the greens and duck. For our entrees, we ordered the Jarret de Porc braisé au Melfort, Sauce Pinot Noir, Spätzelés à la farine bio d'Alsace and La Choucroute Wistub de Danie. The pork was perfectly braised and fell off the bone with zero effort. La Choucroute was precisely what you would expect: a plat for sausages and bacon. This pork lover's plate not only lives up to our expectations but also far surpasses them! Never would I ever have expected to say such a phrase, as this is the best sauerkraurt I have ever had. With thinly shredded cabbage that wasn't too sour, it complemented the meat on this plate like they meant to do one another. Tips and tricks! Make a reservation. If none are available online, walk by and speak to them in person; they might be able to make it work.

I met up with some American friends and we enjoyed one of the three course pairing dinners. We were a little rushed as they need the table at 8:30 which was surprising as usually they consider you have the table all night. We started out with a small appetizer which included fois gras (which was my first). Found out later that you are suppose to make a wish you for time, well that got wasted.. The rest of the meal was perfect. They assigned us a waiter who spoke English which was very helpful as we had no idea what we were eating. From my understanding the owner has changed direction here and has gone quite gastronomic. It was really special. Highly recommend. Must have a reservation.

We opted for the Prix Fixe menu as it was too tiring to ask for the entire menu to be translated and to enquire about food allergies. Amuse Bouche Starter: Foie Gras Main: Duck Burger Dessert: Strawberry Carpaccio The best dish was the foie gras starter this was neatly presented and gained an astonishing remark of 'this place was definitely worth trying' from a dining companion who rarely cares about food or where they should dine! The Strawberry carpaccio dessert looked carefully assembled was a light and refreshing dish to end the meal. The Prix Fixe menu at 38 euros was competitively priced. Service was professional, one waiter was able to translate the French menu sufficiently. As we were leaving I was amused to discover that I had been mistaken for an overseas food critic by the staff.
