    Classic French food in a cozy cottage in the woods. Service is too notch, food is very good but very pricey. Wine list is extensive, however they have a nice selection of by the glass priced reasonably. Definitely a place to put on your list of must do’s… but be prepared to pay for it. I would highly recommend going.

    A consistent standard in Alsatian cuisine. No experiments here, just classic food with quality ingredients. I have returned many times during the past 45 years and had few if any disappointing meals here. Our waitperson, David, was a delight.

    L’Auberge never fails to deliver an outstanding dining experience — old favorites (house aperitif, chocolate soufflé) as well as seasonal specials (Beef Wellington). Extensive, varied and interesting wine list and knowledgeable sommelier available to advise. A thoroughly enjoyable evening with friends.

    Lovely lunch. The dining room was still decorated for the holidays and it was so festive. Food was excellent and service impeccable which fostered excellent conversation and created good feelings for the table.

    We had another wonderful meal at L'Auberge on New Year's Eve, where we have been dining since 1985 and more often in recent years. We always find the service impeccable and attentive, and we love all the waitstaff, whom we have known for years. Thanks to Jacques and his amazing staff for so many delicious meals over the decades!

    We felt it was a bit pricey for the menu preparation, quality and presentation. Adorable place with a fun festive ambience, but for these New Year's Eve fixed prices, we expected more.
