The story
In the small Alsatian village of Klingenthal, once a royal cutlery manufactory, the Lehn family welcomes guests to À l’Étoile. Set at the foot of Mont Sainte Odile, the restaurant offers a calm escape where the pleasures of a meal by the water are paired with inventive, gourmet cooking that follows the rhythm of the seasons.
The kitchen crafts dishes that are both imaginative and generous, drawing on fresh, seasonal produce. This dedication to flavour and finesse recently earned À l’Étoile a Michelin Recommended distinction, a recognition of the quiet excellence at work in this slightly secret address.
The menu changes with the seasons, and the cooking is described as "inventive and gourmet" – a style that feels both modern and rooted in Alsatian traditions. Diners can expect plates that highlight the best of the region’s larder, prepared with care and a sense of place. The setting, by the edge of the water, adds to the sense of serenity.
À l’Étoile is open for lunch and dinner on Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday, and for lunch on Sunday. The restaurant is closed on Wednesday and Thursday.
Whether you come for a quiet dinner, a family celebration, or a special event, À l’Étoile offers a taste of Alsace that is both refined and welcoming.
