MINOT VIVIEN

A great view, excellent service, and delicious food. I had the café gourmand, and everything was amazing.

Lovely terrace in the shade of a huge tree by the water! It is busy so you have to be lucky to have a table, but we were lucky two times without making a reservation so it is possible. Traditional tasty food, good atmosphere and uplifting service. The best corner in town!

This place made me like the tarte flambée (Flammkuchen) again after I had given up on it. I tried the Munster one, and it was really good. The local Gewürztraminer wine I had was also good, and the atmosphere was nice for chilling on the terrace.

We stopped for early dinner at Au Petit Bois Vert in Strasbourg, and it was exactly the kind of meal you hope to have in Petite France. The terrace sits right by the canal, under a massive old tree strung with colorful lights, and the cobblestones give it all a rustic charm. Sitting there with the family, shaded from the sun and watching the boats glide past, felt like a little postcard moment. We decided to share several flammekueche, each served on big wooden boards. The classic with lardons, onions, and mushrooms had the perfect crisp base and smoky flavor. Another was lighter, topped with zucchini slices and herbs, while the richest one came with soft slices of chèvre and a drizzle of honey – a delicious balance of creamy, tangy, and sweet. Alongside, we ordered a large garden salad, full of fresh vegetables, which was a great match to the warm and hearty flammekueche. One of the highlights was also the smoked salmon salad, beautifully presented with salmon layered over crisp greens, cucumber, tomatoes, and a spoonful of avocado cream topped with crispy onions. Even though the terrace was busy, the service was quick and friendly, and we never felt rushed. The prices were very reasonable considering the setting and generous portions. Au Petit Bois Vert gave us a true taste of Alsace in the best possible surroundings.

Great location and view in Petit France. However again very poor service. The waiters are walking around aimlessly. We ordered some drinks and the waiter after twenty minutes later replied and confessed that he totally forgot about our order. Any how we managed to enjoy the atmosphere.

Splendid lunch in the middle of a hot July day. Local beers and wines were excellent. Escargot are a must have! The tarts are large and almost too much food for one. We also had the wild Boar which was meatier than I expected. Great shaded area to enjoy canal views.

Suuuuuper good!! We had the foie grass, choucroutte, tarte flambée of zuchini and wädele. Very recommended!

Great spot by the canal. Somewhat sheilded from the breeze. Wonderful old growth Sycamore tree provided shade and ambiance.
