Restaurants in Alsace traditionally have a formal main dining room as well as a casual dining room known locally as a weinstube or brasserie. At the brasserie, diners may enjoy traditional, hearty Alsatian dishes in a warm and relaxing atmosphere. These friendly establishments are immensely popular with Alsatians and visiting them is always the best part of my trips back to Alsace. I opened Jacques' Brasserie at L'Auberge Chez François to bring the tastes and comforts of the Alsatian brasserie to Great Falls.

    Great to be back at LCF! As we entered the parking lot, we were greeted by fun, colorful holiday lights. The staff were friendly and always willing to help. Our server Freddie was excellent - knowledgable, attentive and really funny! Food was consistently very good among our four diners. Highlights: mushroom crepe (recommended by Freddie) and veal entree. Only issues: Beef Wellington was a little underseasoned and rack of lamb needed more sauce on the side. But that's quibbling! LCF remains the same: friendly, comfortable, and unpretentious - we look forward to returning very soon!
