Michelin Restaurants in Strasbourg
Ondine
In the picturesque little streets of the Petite France neighbourhood, this tiny restaurant attracts those looking for a lively, meaningful culinary experience. At the helm are Noémie D'hooge, an art graduate turned chef, and her partner Marin Remy, whose path has been more conventional. Their modern, predominantly plant-based set menu is full of finesse, featuring seasonal ingredients that have been carefully selected from small local producers. You'll be pleasantly struck by the variety of dishes, which are never repeated twice. The pair work in front of the customer in a pleasant, laid-back atmosphere. As for drinks, the Salvadoran sommelier serves a range of wines, often natural, as well as home-made kombuchas and other non-alcoholic concoctions.

Léonor
Behind a 19C façade and within 18C walls, this contemporary hotel designed by Jean-Philippe Nuel has its own lounge-style restaurant adjoining the bar. The menu is in keeping with the culinary zeitgeist: for example, tuna sashimi, mango, avocado, with soy and sesame sauce, or saddle of lamb with herbs, crispy potatoes and courgette coulis. For tables of friends, there are large dishes designed to share (whole fish, rib steak etc). For those with a sweet tooth, cast an eye over the display cabinet, where some desserts are plated up and there are pretty pastries to choose from.

Au Crocodile
The stuffed crocodile in the window, a souvenir brought back from Egypt by a Napoleonic soldier, underlines the historic character of this iconic Strasbourg establishment, which boasted 3 stars under chef Émile Jung. Following a top to toe refurbishment that has preserved the spirit of the venue, it shines brightly on the culinary scene of Strasbourg. Chef Romain Brillat, former second of Gilles Goujon and a distant relative of Brillat-Savarin, the famous French gourmet, has achieved a balance between classicism and sophistication. Examples include his original take on scallops (ravioli and cream of the trimmings) with squash, or Dover sole with buddha’s hand, root vegetables and shellfish.

1741
Opposite Palais Rohan, an architectural masterpiece completed in 1741, this ‘1741’ is the quintessence of stylish, depicted by cosy, pleasantly hushed dining rooms and a counter where you can watch the kitchen team and chef Jérémy Page at work. After training with Robuchon, Page signs delicate, precise recipes, strewn with passing nods to Alsace. His inspiration comes to the forefront in sauces and jus, such as a seaweed cream paired with a lightly seared fillet of John Dory, or a Grand Veneur game sauce that flanks a medallion of wild boar. A festival of flavours that is beautifully paired with a splendid selection of Alsace wines (grands crus, organic, etc).

Au Pont Corbeau
Experience local gastronomic specialities and traditional decor (Renaissance features, posters) in this restaurant next door to the Musée Alsacien, with its displays of popular art.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Gavroche
In a quiet side street in the Krutenau quarter, this restaurant has an intimate feel. Chef Alexy Fuchs serves contemporary cuisine (langoustine, apple salad and mustard ice, or scallops, sweet potato, crispy ravioli and bisque emulsion) with the odd nod to Alsace, as in the foie gras terrine with fruit chutney and dampfnudel. Service is particularly charming.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Buerehiesel
This picturesque, half-timbered 17C farmhouse was reconstructed stone by stone in the Orangerie Park, next-door to the Council of Europe. The conservatory dining room and patio command a bucolic view of this leafy haven. The menu features some of the house signature dishes, such as frog’s legs sautéed in chervil or free-range pullet roasted in a casserole dish (backeoffe), together with more contemporary seasonal recipes.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Umami
Situated in the heart of Petite France with its picture postcard half-timbered houses, this restaurant combines flavours from near and far. Its name suggests as much: umami is the fifth flavour in Japanese cuisine, alongside sweet, sour, bitter and salty. A keen globetrotter, chef René Fieger signs market-fresh cuisine scattered with exoticism, yet solidly rooted in tradition. The chef is entirely alone in the kitchen, conjuring up dishes that delight. Highlights include a slab of halibut, finely diced yellow and green courgettes, sliced green beans and an acidic, slightly creamy dashi-kefir dressing.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
La Casserole
Formerly maître d' at Au Crocodile, the owner of this place officiates in a contemporary and elegant setting that beautifully sets off the refined cuisine made with first-rate ingredients. The surf and turf-inspired "choco-beef" tartare with Kristal caviar and quail egg may be one of his most original dishes, but that's no reason to pass over the crêpes Suzette prepared in time-honoured tradition at your table, accompanied by vanilla ice cream made to order – delicious.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
La Vieille Enseigne
Despite the name, this is a brand new winstub! The magnificent traditional wainscoting is the work of a cabinetmaker, lithographs by Tomi Ungerer adorn the walls, while copious helpings, local ingredients and traditional regional recipes (presskopf, choucroute, game) depict the gourmet tribute to Alsace, down to the splendid selection of mainly organic wines.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Mademoiselle 10
On the banks of the Ill, this charming restaurant delights its regulars with very reasonable prices, especially at lunchtime. Salmon and leek mosaic wrapped in nori, scallops with sweet potato and coconut cream, or fillet of duck, home-made cep gnocchi and “spicy cocoa” jus...
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Zuem Ysehuet
In a neighbourhood on the bank of the Ill, this inn clad in Virginia creeper also has a quiet picturesque terrace. In the tasty dishes, seasonal ingredients take pride of place: vegetables grown by the chef's father and intelligently cooked by his son. The lamb fillet, osso buco-style vegetables and date condiment is a good example. Terrific wine list, with a particularly good choice of wines by the glass.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
La Brasserie des Haras
A buzzing atmosphere at this large-capacity restaurant run by the great chef Marc Haeberlin, set in the former royal stables and stud farm, constructed during the reign of Louis XV. On the menu, modern cuisine, brasserie classics and a handful of local specialities. The superb contemporary décor with the original exposed roof structure is well worth a look !
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Le Bistrot d'Antoine
Near Place St-Étienne and the rue des Frères, this bistro has cracked the formula for success: seasonal produce, generous dishes from the traditional repertoire (snails in garlic butter, chicken casserole with morels, cream and vin jaune), a friendly atmosphere, a natural and organic wine list... and good value for money.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Le Banquet des Sophistes
It’s no mean feat to get a table at this bistrot in the Krutenau neighbourhood. A well-deserved success for this address that offers an unbeatable set menu at lunchtime and a more elaborate menu in the evenings: scallop tempura with ginger, avocado and pomegranate-lemon dressing, or Basque pork chop with stuffed cabbage and polenta. Well-crafted, fresh and aromatic dishes, prepared in a spirit of eclecticism that pushes gently into fusion cuisine. Stimulating for the tastebuds and a friendly atmosphere to boot, what’s not to like ?
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Colbert
In a modern bistro decor, the young chef-patron concocts neat and flavoursome cuisine that is in tune with modern tastes; his presentations are original and elegant, for example the venison pâté with foie gras en croûte, the calf sweetbread with meunière sauce, and the savarin cake with whipped cream and citrus fruit syrup. Given the quality of the cuisine, it is hardly surprising that the restaurant is frequently fully booked.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
In Vino Veritas
This Italian restaurant is in an ideal location at the foot of the magnificent cathedral.The concise menu offers dishes that are generous and tasty, with a focus on the produce : foie gras agnolotti, zucca al forna, costolette di vitello con burro e salvia, affogato... Pleasant terrace in fine weather and a splendid wine list.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
La Vieille Tour
We could not but fall in love with this authentic inn, run by a couple of professionals. Their generous restaurant, close to the “Petite France”, nurtures traditional flavours (breast of chicken with jus, cod fillet with vegetables and mushrooms, game in season) depending on market availability. The simple décor is embellished with humorous posters on Alsace by the renowned Tomi Ungerer.
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Les Funambules
Chef Guillaume Besson has no equal when it comes to juggling dishes! This minimalist and contemporary space is the setting for a delightful dining experience with its white walls decorated with paintings and photos, its parquet flooring and wooden pieces. The set menu dubbed "sur le fil", made with impeccably cooked ingredients, is a masterclass in clear and simple presentation. Modern, clear and precise, occasionally bold, the dishes are always balanced, which is hardly surprising given the name (a funambule is a tight-rope walker!).
Strasbourg - FRANCE
Chez Yvonne - S'Burjerstuewel
A buzzy vibe and closely packed tables set the scene in this winstub, whose menu is the epitome of Alsace tradition (cockerel in Riesling, garnished sauerkraut, braised knuckle), albeit with a few more creative dishes, such as their delicate Alsace makis. Don’t miss the chance to sample one of the house specialties: melt-in-the-mouth pork cheeks slowly braised and simmered in a velvety pinot noir sauce – to die for!
