Authentic French bistrot with excellent food. Pieces des Boucher excellent and each sauce perfect. Foie gras starter delicious. Not at all touristy, chef and waiter staff only, really good choice if you want to feel like a customer not a commodity.

+2We stumbled across this great little brasserie on our first night in Strasbourg … we loved it so much we went back on our final night. Great Service, including the chef popping out to ask you about your meal, excellent food, in a relaxed and friendly environment.

9/10A lovely little restaurant off the beaten path with very traditional French food. A new menu every day. We had the Cordon Bleu and an amazing fish dish in a Beurre Blanc sauce with a side of risotto. Every bite was delicious. We ate every bite. The chef and owner came out to see how we liked our meal. A lovely dinner. I’d highly recommend! P.S. if you love Absinthe or would like to try it, they offer many different kinds and the owner will show you how to enjoy it. They also offer a flaming Créme Brûlée with Absinthe and an absinthe sorbet.

5/10It was particularly disappointing to have the second half of our dinner at L'Absinthe marred by the cigarette smoke that was allowed to come in from the outside pavement tables. We had hoped to sit out there ourselves on what was a very warm evening, but chose instead to sit inside, which was less comfortable, in order to avoid the cigarette smoke. So it was doubly uncomfortable to endure both heat and secondary smoke which not only ruins the taste of a meal but can affect our health through no fault of our own. We won't be returning, unfortunately.

10/10We had a terrific dinner for 13 people tonight. Service was excellent and the food was to die for. Get the Chicken Cordon Bleu or the duck! Delicious!

10/10Me and my daughters really appreciated the friendliness and openess of the hosts, that suggested some typical dishes that were sublime. We had meat, fish and poultry - and finished with 3 desserts. Everything paired with local good wine. I will come here again

9.5/10Great experience. Food was interesting, nice staff (a bit understaffed though), cozy place. Great for its price. Crème brûlée is a must. Highly recommended

9.5/10This restaurant was a great alternative to the touristy places closer in Strasbourg to the cathedral. Food was very good, mostly locals were dining, and the service was great.

5.5/10Staff service was fair but false advertisement. Food was decent. However, I am not happy about the 40% off advertisement as the server/restaurant did not apply 40% off on the meal despite me making a reservation with 40% off discount offer. Not cool experience.

10/10Wonderful experience for Christmas Eve dinner. The gentleman who served us also made the foie gras and dessert- both of which were excellent. We felt welcomed and relaxed spending our evening here enjoying the delicious food.

10/10Wonderful staff, great food. Couldn't have asked for a lovelier evening. A bonus was the reasonably priced wines by the glass.
