Mixed feelings, based on the reviews we visited expecting exceptional food but apart from the foie gras, everything we had was not impressive in the slightest. The food was simply bland and did not have a hint of tasty flavour, even basic salt and pepper. The escargot were in a garlic oil but there was no taste of garlic at all, the mushroom sauce on my entrecote had an artificial taste and did not have a hint of any additional seasoning. My dessert of the day, the Apple crumble tasted at least a day old and was cold, most likely refridgerated for some time. A warm, fresh crumble would have been great. The most disappointing dish was the baeckoffe. It was unseasoned and tasted like watered down wine. I must say my partner and I were so shocked by the lack of flavour in this dish that we just laughed...generous amounts of salt and pepper made the dish palatable but on the whole it was so bland we even rated it the blandest meal we have ever tasted. As a visitor to the region, maybe this is the way the local dishes are made but for our tastes, it was an exceptionally underwhelming culinary experience. On the plus side, the ambience of the restaurant, the house Riesling and the Foie Gras were quite wonderful. The entrecote was cooked to perfection but again, neither salted nor peppered. The service personnel were welcoming and attentive and we gave them 5 stars for their efforts. Thank you! If you do visit this restaurant, I would advise trying other dishes as ours were extremely disappointing, or we were simply unlucky and visited this establishment on a bad day.

A very old restaurant and the milieu is excellent 👌 The menu is quite traditional and good. However, the dishes we tried, the three kinds of fish was disappointing and bland, the veal kidneys taste was quite strong and she didn't enjoy it as much. The liver salad was the only good dish outcome. Perhaps, it was a poor choice of menus at our end, but we enjoyed the ambience of the restaurant. However, the male server wasn't the friendliest or keenest to assist my friend's inquiry about the menu, because she has some dietary restrictions, which was disappointing. Also, they had no soups on the menu, which was strange for a traditional brassière.

We had Christmas dinner here and it was an amazing experience. The food is very traditional, filling and delicious. They had a special menu for Christmas’ day and that is what we ordered it. They are often very busy, and I made the reservation in the beginning of November, so if you are going to be in the area and want to visit this place make sure to make a reservation ahead of time. The place is beautiful, is in a cave and it was very festive for the holidays. Service was friendly and very attentive; the portions are very large and the prices were very good. A must to go while in Strasbourg.

Almost went to wrong restaurant, they are underground through a small opening on the street. Excellent food, English menu, very reasonable price! Main-dish with potatoes is mostly less than 20 euro! You should not miss the pork in red wine sauce, the pork is slow cooked and so tender, and the sauce is perfect with baked potatoes and the sour cabbage from the other Alsace dish (6 kinds of meet). The waitress doesn’t speak English but we ordered by showing her the photo from Google maps. Only 3G internet in the “caves” so better to save some screenshot of photos of dishes beforehand.

The Entrees were very generous portions, almost as large as a main. The service was the best I had in Europe thus far. When the entree was finished, the waiter immediately requested the mains to the kitchen which came in less than 5 mins. I was really impressed by the quick and simple service despite being fully booked. The Flammekueche was smoky with a smoky taste to the bread and bacon too. We dined for lunch, but it has a late evening feeling during day time which is very cosy in the cave interior.

Was just there by myself while on a work trip in Strasbourg, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It’s right in town near the big cathedral. Food was good, service was pretty good, and it is a really neat physical space that the restaurant is in. I tried the sauerkraut with meats, a fois gras appetizer, along with a dessert tarte flambee. All were delicious! Plenty of bread was served as well which was good. I got a half carafe of one of their white wines (dry Riesling) which hit the spot.
