€€€Classic Cuisine, Traditional Cuisine
At one corner of this imposing village house, the wrought-iron eagle seems to herald your arrival. Inside, tuck into classic dishes (home-made goose foie gras terrine with port jelly, Paul Haeberlin's mousseline of frogs’ legs, sole meunière prepared tableside…) in a traditional and inviting setting. Less formal atmosphere in the winstub.

À l'Aigle d'Or offers classic Alsatian traditional cuisine, praised by many for food quality, family atmosphere, and warm service. Signature dishes include choucroute and seasonal items in a cozy setting. However, some guests report issues with service details, such as missing ice cubes or pacing, and cite high prices relative to portion sizes or inconsistent food temperatures. While generally recommended for authentic flavors, experiences may vary based on specific visits and staff.
Suitable for diners seeking authentic Alsatian traditions who can tolerate occasional service inconsistencies.
€€€Modern Cuisine
In his restaurant within this venerable 200-year-old building, Nicolas Laurent serves modern cuisine with no shortage of finesse. The chef earned his stripes in some of France's top establishments (Le Chambard, L'Auberge de l'Ill, Le Vieux Couvent de Rhinau) and showcases both local produce (La Wantzenau goose foie gras, wild boar from the Ried, Alsace truffles...) and premium items from further afield (eg Cotentin lobster and inshore sole). Regulars will be happy to note that the famous fried carp fillets with horseradish cream are still on the menu.
