A restaurant that embodies the art of hospitality through its hearty cuisine and exceptional wine selection.

The Petite-Venise neighborhood in Colmar.

A table born of passion...

As lovers of fine dining and great wines, we’ve traveled through France’s most beautiful wine regions with a simple goal: to create a restaurant that reflects who we are.

We take a sincere and meticulous approach, where every detail matters. Nicolas crafts seasonal cuisine centered on the ingredients, while I ensure that every meal is a warm and memorable experience.

Our restaurant combines the pleasure of authentic cuisine with a carefully curated selection of wines, in an intimate setting where excellence is experienced without ostentation.

The map

Having trained at leading restaurants in France and abroad, I have always pursued the same goal: to offer cuisine that is generous, authentic, and focused on enjoyment.

At lunch, our daily specials are inspired by the market and the seasons. In the evening, we present a more indulgent menu, where exceptional fish, fine cuts of meat, and carefully selected ingredients shine.

Our cuisine is refined yet unpretentious, drawing equally on tradition and international influences, with a single goal: to delight you.
