Le Fer Rouge sur Colmar

17/06/2026: A delightful surprise tucked away in a covered passageway! Don't hesitate, come and discover delicious homemade regional dishes: from tartiflette to tarte flambée or warm goat cheese salad. A bonus for allergy sufferers: all allergens are clearly listed. The iced kouglof is delicious. The welcome and service are very friendly.

04/06/2026: I usually don’t leave anything other than great reviews but I thought owner should see this. If I rated based strictly on service the stars would be lower but, to be fair, this was the best food we had in Colmar so I can’t be too harsh. I had an excellent steak frites and my wifes tartiflette was also excellent. Everything was cooked perfectly and prices were fair. Service though was an issue. To be fair, the young lady waiting on guests needs help - I’ve waited tables in my youth and it’s impossible to give decent service to ten or so groups while running food, bussing tables, taking orders, etc.. Doesn’t excuse the surly attitude however. Every request, from asking for an extra spoon or asking for the bill was met with a sigh and an attitude. There was absolutely a language barrier and I’m sure that was a large part of the problem. My wife and I live in Portugal and have traveled extensively there and in Spain, Italy and France. We can make do in most but our French is admittedly very weak. Hasn’t been a big issue anywhere else we’ve been in France and really was never an issue in Colmar until tonight. Considering how many English speaking tourists I heard walking around in our several days here I’m actually quite surprised to find someone with zero English working in a restaurant here but must not be the clientele they cater to. Anyway, sorry to leave less than a stellar review as, again, the chef is very talented. Server needs some help though and seriously needs some customer service skills. We have honestly never felt as unwelcome at a restaurant anywhere in Europe and she turned a great meal into a somewhat disappointing experience.
