La Winstub Du Chambard

I came here for lunch with my friend 2weeks ago. Tbh, food was great, however on that night at 3am, I had a terrible vomiting and diarrhea. Even next day I had a same symptoms and I couldn’t even get out from the bed. I believe it’s food poisoning from a venison carpaccio that I had.(because that's the only meals that I had on that day) And its summer and its raw meat. There must had been a problem with food handling. I messaged to a restaurant, but they never reply to me, so I had to publish here.. But again, food was tasty, it just I had a bad luck.

An outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The service was warm, attentive, and highly professional. Both the servers and the sommelier were very knowledgeable, exactly what you would expect from an establishment of this level. We were welcomed with an asparagus soup that was incredibly rich and creamy—an excellent start to the meal. As a starter, we had the quenelle de poisson du lac Léman. The texture of the fish was exceptional—so delicate it almost melted in the mouth. The beurre noisette enhanced the richness beautifully, and paired with the homemade mayonnaise, it made for a truly indulgent and satisfying dish. For mains, the médaillons de chevreuil were perfectly executed. Each piece was cooked precisely between medium-rare and medium, with no grey band, nicely charred on the outside and well seasoned. The beetroot sauce brought a subtle complexity, tying together the meat and accompanying vegetables in a very smooth and balanced way. The sommelier’s wine-by-the-glass recommendations paired wonderfully with each dish and elevated the overall experience. For dessert, we had a rhubarb tarte du jour, which was excellent—perfectly balanced between tartness and sweetness. The fresh strawberries—picked that same morning—were incredibly flavorful and paired beautifully with a light crème chantilly and ice cream. We also finished with a moelleux au chocolat, which was just as satisfying. Overall, a refined yet generous dining experience with excellent execution across every course, highly recommended!

We had a fantastic dinner at La Chambard Winstub First, located right inside our hotel — super convenient! The restaurant’s ambience is beautiful, combining a cozy, old Alsatian building with a fresh, contemporary art vibe. It truly feels like a hidden gem. The food was amazing — full of flavor and beautifully presented. On top of that, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you’re staying at the hotel or anywhere nearby, this place is a must-visit. Great food, great people, and a beautiful setting.

Good food, I’ll give them that. But the service? One lonely course stretched into a two-hour ordeal while the waiters honed their skill at ignoring us. Crowded lunch or not, unless they were carving each ingredient from marble, the delay was absurd. The atmosphere? Think shelves crammed with dust collectors from a different season and a ceiling festooned with fabric hearts — a heavy-handed attempt at Alsace “charm.” Some might find it quaint; I found it sneeze-inducing. The food itself was… fine. Decent, but hardly memorable. Pair that with the prices, and the so-called authentic experience veered into parody. Alsace has plenty of places that are both genuine and worth the investment. This one? More “box ticked, never again.”

I can highly recommend the menu. Good value for money. We visited as part of an outing and had planned to eat there with a friend. The restaurant was already busy at lunchtime. I would recommend to reserve in advance. I would go back anytime.
