La Romaine - Niederbronn-les-Bains

Although the food isn’t bad and I loved the frites, the service here was the absolute worst I’ve had in years. We only went there because our other choices were either on annual vacation or closed for Sunday. Only go there if you have a lot of time to kill.

We had lunch here on a Wednesday; the restaurant soon became crowded with locals soon after we arrived around noon; service was good and friendly enough even though it was obvious we were tourists; no complaints here unlike other reviewers; the spaghetti was homemade but the tomato sauce had a little bit of a strange taste; the spaghetti pesto came in a carbonara-style cream sauce; we had never seen a pesto sauce like this before but it was tasty; we noticed that quite a few locals were eating schnitzel and French fries; portion size was very good and prices are a little below average; the food was clearly not authentic Italian which is the case with many Italian restaurants outside Italy; eating here was OK but it’s not a restaurant we would go back to; there’s a large parking just behind the restaurant.

The waitress was very unfriendly and rude. I have never experienced such a behavoour in a restaurant anywhere in France. We left without having dinner. Never again!

Nice clean restaurant, well decorated. Good food but slow service. Waitress was occupied with talking to familiar customers instead of taking orders.

Small fresh looking place with friendly staff. They serve tasty food at affordable prices. Only negative point would be the high sitting chairs and table: they are not very comfortable.
