Scenes of Alsace come to the forefront when walking into our upper east side corner jewel. From the curved pewter bar decorated with suspended antique seltzer bottles, to our colorfully tiled floors; our cozy restaurant evokes the essence of Alsace at every turn.

    The food was great, service from Steve was amazing and it was a lovely experience. We were a party of 7 with 3 kids and everyone was happy! Thank you to Steve and the staff! For brunch we ate eggs, waffles, pancakes and burger- all delicious!

    Good French Alsatian bistro food, nice beer selection, friendly service. The setting isn't quite as wonderful as the restaurant's former site but it's still charming.

    Food was good. We had a long wait for our order to be taken and had to rush through our meal to get back for a work commitment.

    Our appetizers and entrees were authentic and delicious. Our wonderful server David was extraordinarily too. He was attentive, humorous and professional. Very rare these days in the service industry. Great wine list and our sommelier Justin was wonderful. We’ll be back again soon! Thanks everyone! Kim & John
