Le Clos de la Garenne sur Saverne

[Edit 02/2026] I'm taking advantage of a recent visit to the restaurant to reread my review of a previous reservation. In February 2026, the staff hasn't really changed: smiles and kindness must be the norm, and they are wonderfully observed. The entire visit was once again excellent (the welcome, the presentation of the dishes, the atmosphere, the taste!!!). This is truly a restaurant I would recommend without hesitation. --------- Until now, I had only eaten at this restaurant for lunch with colleagues. This was my first time dining there as a couple. The setting is perfect for a romantic meal. The decor is sublime, if you like wood. Very romantic, the lighting is quite soft. Perhaps a small candle on the table would have added a nice touch. The staff is simply lovely. Friendly, smiling, and polite: you can tell they are present and attentive to your needs. It's becoming increasingly rare, so it's worth highlighting. The menu isn't huge, and even more so if you don't eat fish or seafood. But thankfully, there's still plenty to choose from. Don't expect the usual cordon bleu, Milanese cutlet, or other meat dishes found in almost every restaurant. Here, the focus is on originality! Our plate arrived beautifully presented, quite generous without being extravagant. The dish was well-prepared, and you could easily tell the ingredients were fresh. (The side of crushed yellow tomatoes was simply exquisite). I would make a slight reservation about the (homemade!) fries, which were unfortunately a little undercooked (some were barely soggy inside). The dessert menu is also modest. And once again, no "basics," just originality. Generously served, with the vibrant colors of seasonal fruits, the dessert was also very good! I highly recommend starting your meal with the mini tarte flambée (another original creation!) with pieces of spring onion and chives (if I'm not mistaken), which add a lovely flavor to this generously filled tart. We'll definitely be back for a romantic meal!

We were at a table near the entrance. A small screen would have been appreciated.

Disappointed by the quality of our lunch menu dishes and the accompanying bread (defrosted?).

Friendly welcome, exceptional atmosphere and cuisine! Excellent value for money. We had a very pleasant time in a cozy setting. We loved it and we'll definitely be back!

Very happy, as usual! A great time!

A wonderful, cozy, and warm place. Excellent cuisine. And remarkable staff, with a special mention to the lady who served the table of four next to the fireplace today.

We had a wonderful time enjoying delicious food.

Great atmosphere!!! Attentive staff Extraordinary quality of the meal

Fair price, and good quality food served.

A magnificent setting, exquisite and refined cuisine. All this is almost Michelin-star quality. The only drawback is the service, which is sometimes a little "messy" because it's rushed and leaves the customer with an unpleasant feeling. When you try to do things too quickly, you either forget or make mistakes. La Garenne remains in the top 3 restaurants in Saverne.
