My experience at L'Auberge Chez Francois felt like something out of a movie. I studied the menu before my reservation and that helped me make confident choices which I also think impressed the chef. I ordered the ris de veau, Roquefort salad, choucrut garni, and gran Marnier souffle. Everything came perfectly cooked and expertly timed. I never felt rushed or impatient for the next course. They also had special appetizers, entree, and dessert that were not on menu and am looking forward to my next experience with them to try something new. This was a night of many firsts, to include the ris de veau which was expertly cooked, buttery, and tender. I see why it's such a delicacy. My reservation was for 5:30pm on a Friday and the restaurant was pretty quiet but by the time i was leaving car af

We had dining with our family friends month ago, L’Auberge Chez François offered a truly authentic French dining experience. From the moment we enter, we are welcomed with classic French hospitality. Someone helps me with my coat right away, a thoughtful and elegant touch that many restaurants no longer offer. The atmosphere is beautiful, warm, and very French in style. The food is absolutely delicious—every dish is carefully prepared and full of flavor. Jose provides very delicious bread before food starts, What makes the experience especially memorable is that the chef, who is also the owner of the restaurant, personally comes to the table to ask for your feedback, showing genuine passion and pride in the food and service. An exceptional restaurant with outstanding cuisine, service, an

After visiting L’Auberge Chez François many times over the years, I finally decided to write a review. This most recent visit was with friends for our annual holiday gathering, which has become a tradition for us. A few of us arrived early and started the evening at the bar with cocktails — an extra dirty gin martini with blue cheese olives, followed by a Boulevardier, which set the tone perfectly for the night. Once seated in the main dining room, we opted for the prix-fixe menu, which is truly the best way to experience L’Auberge. The evening began with the bread service and amuse-bouche, followed by my appetizer choice: La Cassolette de Joues de Boeuf, beautifully braised beef cheeks in a sherry wine sauce, rich and comforting. For the salad course, I chose the duck special of the day,

Had the prix-fixe and loved every bit of it. Hot bread with butter and ricotta cheese spread to start, delicious chive crepe and wagyu beef cheeks stew, followed by a great Caesar salad. Papa’s bouillabaisse and the rockfish entree were excellent. Finished with chocolate and raspberry soufflés: hot, fluffy, and not too sweet. A hearty, memorable meal overall.

We celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary here and we loved everything about the restaurant - the Strasbourg art, Alsatian plate, beef wellington, chocolate souffle, and the staff. Service was superb, food came out quickly, and the ambiance is intimate but friendly. Saw families with small children. Ample parking. Very scenic drive to get there. Highly recommended for special occasions!! (We honeymooned in France and visited Strasbourg so it was a very special experience for us)
