Brasserie La Maison des Tetes - Colmar

Looking for lunch, We found the restaurant by coincidence, there were 2 spots left at the ‘Stammtisch’ . We were completely taken by surprise by the quality of the food and the very friendly service. There was literally nothing to complaint about our experience. During the next couple of days while we are touring around Switzerland and north Italy. We were discussing several times the wonderful brasserie adventure in Maison De Tetes. On the way back we decided to re-visit this restaurant, this time for dinner. Again, we were overwhelmed by the quality of the food. We can’t do anything else than recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes enjoys France Cuisine.

This was the first time we left a hotel feeling bad. The hotel is not a Relais chateaux only the prices are. The breakfast is supermarket quality, with rotten fruits, old bread, the poached egg which was not made with enthousiasm the chef was chatting with friends and was annoyed that he had to prepare it) were raw, drenched in water. And I’m talking about the chef, of the Michelin star restaurant. When we gave feedback he seemed not interested at all. They did absolutely nothing to make up for it or to make us feel welcome. The reception is cold and unfriendly, but arrogant too. Rooms are small, sober, bathrooms are claustrofobicly small. The hotel and the food are not ok!!! Stay away if you are a gourmand. We had to write to Relais et Chateaux for the first time in 40 years, this hotel is a big stain on their perfect resume. Really really disappointed

We stayed at the Masion des Tetes and had driven all day through the Alsatian wine towns; so did not wish to go far for dinner. The Brasserie was super convenient being in the hotel and we enjoyed the classic paneled surroundings. Our meal was good and wine excellent. It was a weekday night and the hotel faces a busy shopping street. But as it was after shopping hours, few were in the brasserie which made for a quiet dinner, but we might have enjoyed having the company of more diners!

Beautiful building.expected to be treated to a finer dining experience. Food was average with some degree of bland. Rather pricey for the lack of quality. Service was uneven and somewhat indiffferent. Did not check on table after serving main course; broke cork when opening wine which could happen to anyone) but did not offer another bottle even though there was pieces of cork in the wine. When questioned about a dessert soufflé , was informed that it was supposed to be served that way even though not normally undercooked. Would not retrurn here and advise others to find alternatives.

We ate here three nights while staying at the hotel. Wonderful Alsatian food. We had some fish in a risotto and a sausage plate that stood out.
