Getting there

A word from Cafe D' Alsace

Cafe D'Alsace features chef Philippe Roussel; previously at Chelsea Bar and Bistro and Montparnasse, is originally from Brittany, but he knows something about Alsace serving features such as his tarte flambée (onions and bacon), potée (cabbage soup) and choucroute made with pork or seafood. Also… try something off our extravagant beer menu.Continued

"Wonderful French bistro fare in a very pleasant, slightly cramped and slightly noisy environment. Service was very good; a couple members of our party were very late and they didn't seem to mind. We will definitely go again."

"I really love Café D'Alsace. Good, consistent, service. Always get a table. Start off with a classic tarte flambé (alsacian pizza) while you peruse the extensive list of wonderful beers (rotating list of drafts plus some great lambics, ales, porters, and more from across the lake). Move on to a hearty helping of alsacian specialties. Choucroutes, cassoulets, confits, and moules - all delectable. A good selection of brats - also great. A number of burger plates, standards, plus chicken and duck burgers; great fries. Everything delicious and perfectly prepared. (they've even got some good salads - but this is NO place to go for a light meal)
