"We chose the set lunch menu, which was correctly priced (if I recall it was around the 15 euro mark). Diners can add an extra 5,50 euros for a glass of table wine and a coffee.The food was a little hit and miss. The entree of the day was a deconstructed salmon and mushroom vol-au-vent, while the main courses were haddock with spinach fettuccine, or beef with courgettes and orzo. All those were pretty good, and the fish tasted really fresh.The miss was my Alsacienne salad, which I was not familiar with, and described to me as tomatoes, gherkins, ham and cheese. I thought why not? Well, it was more cold shredded cheese and ham than anything else, with only a homeopathic dose of tomato and gherkin. Anyone out there thinking of ordering this salad as a healthy option, be warned.Ambiance was cool; the place was set out with a wine cellar feel and there was a painting of Bacchus upstairs.Reading through the other reviews, I'm not surprised to see the two extreme experiences in service. Waiting time was a bit on the slow side, but since we were on holidays and not in a hurry, we didn't care. Depending on which waiter was taking our orders, serving up the food, clearing the plates or fixing up the bill, the interaction varied between efficiently brusque and warm and friendly. I will say though, that they were pretty busy so it's understandable if they weren't in the mood to chinwag."

"we had reserved for a Friday night and were received on the entrance and led to the table. there were now three menus for selection - priced. 26, 42 and 52€. Within these three-course menus you could choose different combinations of start, main and dessert. we chose the golden one. appetizer 2x fois gras with briocherosinenbrot. rinderfilet ( 6€) and bouillabaisse. in the dark, chocolate-tart and celestial with pistachio mousse. brotchips with thunfischdipp, french Échiré butter with salt flakes and as an amuse bead a gazpacho were added at the beginning. for aperitif we ordered a bottle of champagne - the recommendation of the house - ayala. never heard, but very tasty (70€) - who accompanied us all the food.The service was very attentive and constantly gave after. the gimmicks have deposited positiw from other restaurants. the menu order was timely. the fois gras was a dream. the bark fillet still somewhat too raw and tastefully normal, the bouillabaisse much too small and tastefully rather disappointing. then there was still a predessert lemon sorrow with strawberry mousse and a refreshing cloth developed after pouring hot water from a tablet - beautiful effect!Trotz the disappointing bouillabaisse and the average bark fillet as well as the really bad madeleines to espresso (three different sorts) due to the good service a very good address to dinner."
