Reviews
We had the pleasure of eating here for Christmas Day dinner. I would eat here again. The food was quite tasty, both seafood and kraut/sausages. The service staff was very nice and accommodating even though they were quite busy. We did have to flag down the wait staff at the end to check us out and there was a long wait (25+ minutes), but overall this didn't much detract from the experience. I would recommend, and it was worth the wait on a busy Christmas night.
It’s alright. Food is like a combination of french and German. Ambiance is very old fashioned. Our chicken was completely dry and it surprised me greatly that such an establishment would dare to serve something so grossly overcooked. Sausages and sauerkraut were fine. Everything else was as expected and not mind blowing.
Classic Brasserie in Paris, focused on Alsacienne cuisine. The interior is impressive and beautifully designed but the seating space is tight (common in Paris). The food was okay, but we had more refined food in the city. We would come back mainly for the atmosphere and the experience of this classic French brasserie.
