Bib Gourmand€€Modern Cuisine
Set in a cosy hotel, this eatery’s trendy, minimalist interior is the HQ of a chef who adds a new spin to regional ingredients: pan-fried Vosges ceps and hazelnuts; seabass roasted in champagne, tartare of oysters and watercress gnocchis; a meringue, chestnut and cream delight… His flawless modern score is paired with a fine list of Alsace wines. It makes the heart sing!

Chef Olivier Lamard crafts a modern culinary score that draws on the terroir of Alsace: house-made foie gras in gewurztraminer; guinea fowl with velvety parsnips and mushrooms; upside-down plum pie, tonka bean-laced mascarpone cream and vanilla ice cream. Savvy, deft craftsmanship and premium produce, some of which from the chef’s granddad’s garden: it ticks all the boxes!

Located in central Munster, L'Olivier offers modern cuisine in a warm, intimate setting. Reviews frequently praise the high quality of food, highlighting rich flavors, artistic plating, and fresh ingredients. Service is generally friendly, though bottlenecks occur during peak times due to limited staff, leading to significantly extended dining durations and slow pacing. The dining room is small with elegant decor but has limited tableware. Some guests note that the value for money is questionable given the portion sizes and fixed menu options. While the culinary execution is often commended, the experience can be marred by logistical delays and insufficient service coverage during busy periods.
Suitable for diners seeking refined modern cuisine who can tolerate longer waits; avoid peak hours.

In this family-run hotel-restaurant, you will first fall in love with the irresistible vintage interior and its parquet floors and chandeliers. The extensive menu reveals a weakness for purebred classicism (tournedos steak and black mushrooms), regional dishes (smoked trout and bibalakas) and the odd more contemporary composition (gravlax salmon and beetroot emulsion). Sweeping view over the valley.
