La Nouvelle Auberge sur Wihr-Au-Val

What a beautiful house this former coaching inn has become for 29 years one of the most beautiful gastronomic addresses in Alsace, this region so richly endowed in this area. We have had lunch or dinner there a good thirty times since 1996 or 97, initially knowing the room on the ground floor, which became the "Bistrot" after the opening of the gourmet restaurant upstairs, it was nothing but renewed pleasure. and consistent quality. The successive fittings, always accompanied by personalized and tasteful decoration, playing on the contrasts between the magnificent parquet flooring and the new light wood furniture and the associated walls and woodwork in a grey/black theme, only reinforce the warm chic atmosphere of the Auberge. Everything is completed by tables that are always so elegantly set. Martine and Bernard Leray run this House with talent and a passion for entertaining, so that their guests can make the most of the tasty cuisine of the Chef and his team, faithful to Alsace (with nods to Brittany), but which Bernard's personal and creative touch embellishes: Fine potato waffle, Oscietra caviar from Kaviari, cauliflower cream, Hot foie gras escalope from duck, griespflütta, reduced quince and apple juice, Colimaçon snail soup, garlic parsley juice, Beef Consommé in a cup and a slice of snail fricassee, or the Filet of doe, celery puree cooked in Petit Ballon hay, red cabbage without forgetting “Chocolate” for dessert. The wine list compiled over the years by Martine, and for a time by Charlotte, does not forget any region offering renowned names, but also areas to discover, respecting moderation becoming an impossible task. May this Inn, still young, 30 years old in 2025, continue to delight us for as long as possible.

Quelle belle maison que cet ancien relais de poste devenu depuis 29 ans l'une des plus belles adresses gastronomiques d'Alsace, cette région si richement pourvue dans ce domaine. Nous y avons déjeuné ou dîné une bonne trentaine de fois depuis 1996 ou 97, connu dans les débuts la salle du rez de chaussée, devenue le "Bistrot" après l'ouverture du restaurant gastronomique à l'étage, ce ne fut que plaisir renouvelé et qualité constante.  Les aménagements successifs, toujours accompagnés d'une décoration personnalisée et de bon goût, jouant sur les contrastes entre le magnifique parquet et le nouveau mobilier en bois clair et les murs et boiseries associés dans une thématique gris/noire, ne font que renforcer l'ambiance chaleureuse chic de l'Auberge. Le tout est complété par des tables toujours aussi élégamment dressées.   Martine et Bernard Leray conduisent cette Maison avec talent et la passion de recevoir, afin que leurs hôtes profitent au mieux de la cuisine savoureuse du Chef et de son équipe, fidèle à l'Alsace (avec des clins d'oeil à la Bretagne), mais que la touche personnelle et créative de Bernard embellit :  Fine gaufre de pomme de terre, Caviar osciètre de chez Kaviari crème de choux fleurs, Escalope de foie gras chaud de canard, griespflütta, jus de coing et pommes réduit, La soupe d’escargots du Colimaçon, jus de persil aillé, Consommé de bœuf en tasse et une tartine de fricassée d’escargots, ou encore le Filet de biche, purée de céleri cuit au foin du Petit Ballon, chou rouge sans oublier en dessert "Le Chocolat" . La carte des vins composée au fil des années par Martine, et durant un temps par Charlotte, n'oublie aucune région proposant des noms réputés, mais également des domaines à découvrir, respecter la modération devenant tâche impossible .  Que cette Auberge, encore jeune, 30 ans en 2025, continue à nous régaler le plus longtemps possible  .

We had a pleasant time with the welcome, the cuisine and the service. Well done.

The young waiter is very pleasant, high quality service and impeccable kindness. Absolutely divine dishes created with great imagination, an absolutely magnificent menu. In one word CONGRATULATIONS I recommend this place which is a marvel

Everything was nice... so delicious food friendly customer service

Very very good address. Refined cuisine. Top service.

Simply exceptional, succulent and very fine dishes, an address to keep, this will be the 3rd time this year and I think it won't be the last

I had already left a first review after visiting the ground floor, mentioning my curiosity to discover the upstairs. It’s now done, and done again. To be honest, gastro has become THE place to celebrate our wedding anniversary (3rd time this year). And, we will return there, to take our taste buds to the party. And not only that...... All our senses have the right to happiness: sight, smell, touch and hearing! It's beautiful, aromatic, textured and explained with passion. And of course delicious in taste! Welcome, service and surroundings to match. Of course, we may not please everyone. And I'm sad for this September customer who seems to have had a less good experience. That said, perhaps she "missed" the work provided, as, in her comment, she is a little "off" with her language (even in original language!). There's more to life than just schnitzel and curry wurst, although those can be delicious too.

Gourmet restaurant that is definitely worth the detour! Refined cuisine, a combination of superb flavors, pleasant and smiling staff, perfect service! The price is really very fair considering the quality of the service. I highly recommend and would come back with my eyes closed! THANKS !

Nous étions côte bistro et sommes ravis de notre repas. Les plats sont très bons, les cuissons parfaites, les sauces également. Le rapport qualité / prix est exceptionnel. Le service est également très bien. Nous recommandons cette adresse.
