Brasserie L'Excelsior

Nestled in the heart of the city, it is a stunning tribute to the Art Deco style of the 1910s, seamlessly blending elegance with a nostalgic charm with intricate geometric patterns, rich colors, and stylish furnishings that evoke an era of sophistication. The menu features a selection of classic French dishes Soupe à l'Oignon and Steak Tartare. The food is acceptable but not as impressive as its deco.

Had dinner at Brasserie L'Excelsior in Nancy, and the Art Nouveau interior is absolutely stunning. The ornate ceilings, stained glass, and the central tree installation create a unique and memorable atmosphere. I ordered the Choucroute Strasbourgeoise as my main dish. It was not bad at all, featuring a generous portion of sauerkraut and assorted meats. However, it didn't particularly stand out in terms of flavor or presentation. For dessert, I had the Tout Nancy, a local specialty parfait with bergamot and mirabelle. It was pleasant and light, offering a nice regional touch to end the meal. The service was totally fine, with staff being attentive and courteous throughout the evening.

Ideally located with well maintained distinguished decor. The staff are nice and polite. Typical continental breakfast with fresh bread, pressed orange juice and hot drink. We tried that large plate with a variety of cheeses before going home. This was our preferred breakfast place for the duration of our stay.

Definitely recommended for a nice occasion. The restaurant is super pretty and the staff is very sweet. Would recommend booking before hand as it gets busy. Mussels, snails and profiteroles are not to be missed!

You know how is when you pay food, expecting quality and tasty food but the you receive disappointment. Anyhow here’s what i took and you should better not. So 30€ for entrecote with no taste + frittes burned till the end. About beef tartar - you receive a piece of who knows when was mixed. Sorry but you should know that a tartar beef you should make in front of the costumer. Anyhow the restoran is not so high level.

I recently had a great meal at Brasserie L'Excelsior, and it was a fantastic experience. The food was really tasty, the place looked old but cool, and the service was good. You should book ahead because it's always busy. The food there is just really good. They serve classic French dishes, and everything I tried was delicious. The restaurant looks old and fancy, kind of like stepping back in time. The decorations are nice and add to the atmosphere. The people working there were friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. One thing to remember is that the place is usually full, so it's a good idea to call and book a table ahead of time. In short, Brasserie L'Excelsior is a great place to eat in Nancy. The food is yummy, the place looks cool, and the service is good. Just make sure to reserve a table because it's always busy.

Despite some extremely negative food and service reviews, we wanted to see the legendary dining room. In fact, we were totally delighted with the octopus main course and the prix fixe brasserie menu. The service could not have been more attentive. Lesson: Be careful of what you read online.

It's absolutely fascinating place with super beautiful decoration, feeling like in a Palace museum! Also very tasty food 😋 But the service was a bit not that satisfying, because they didn't give me cultures, but also perhaps because that was the busiest day of summer, the musical festival night

I give 5 stars for the absolute beauty of the setting. Perfect Art Nouveau atmosphere in this charming building. The Quiche Lorraine was very good to, but also a nice place to stop for coffee and just sit and soak in the charm of the restaurant

I didn't have reservation on a Saturday night- but the wonderful maitre-d hooked me up! Wonder wine from the region. Starters: oysters and escargot - yum! For main I had lamb- very flavorful and amazing eggplant side. And dessert- something creamy, light, delicious, and cold. A super sweet couple sitting next to me gave me fantastic dessert idea (and helped me with eating the escargot-lol). And we're just all around delightful! Yerp. I'll be back!

Excellent !! Amazing decor, service, and most importantly - food! I had the menu of foies gras and then the steak tartar . Unbelievably tasty fresh.. Home made fries and mayo ! Great wine list. UNbelievably good desserts! Try the profiteroles creme brûlée and Le tout Nancy!!! Very very enjoyable, high class.

The venue is very beautiful. An old jugend styl, you feel like taking part in a Gatsby 's party (super chic chic feeling) Just went for a tea time... But was really disappointed about the quality.. Coffee too strong, and apple cake too artificial... Sad... Maybe lunch or dinner is better quality... But until then only 2 stars

4 stars for the experience of dining in a fine sensitively restored brasserie of the 1920s, everyone who dined there seem to appreciate and share in paying homage by wearing their Sunday best. It is actually one place you can't fault someone for overdressing. 3 stars for the food, nice and decent in quality porcelain but lacking in finer touches of good suitable accompanying sauce at times. Our wait staff was friendly but it was busy lunch hour so getting their attention didn't guarantee immediate service. They have a la carte as well as menus where you can choose 2, 3 courses or their premium set, starts from €35. Not good with salad selection, all heavy meat plats. They seem to stand out also for their seafood platters.

On a rainy night this brasserie looked fantastic from outside, bustling and glowing in restored deco splendor. However, as a single diner I was shunted to a side room, given an awkward table and left without attention. The menu had absolutely no vegetarian options, other than sides of green beans and mashed potatoes. I departed without ordering. No one seemed to notice. Meh!

Enjoyed dinner here last night. Typical French brasserie with all the dishes you'd expect. We asked about the langoustines on the way in and when we received our plateau the guys had kindly added an extra one! Meat was well cooked and sides very nice. Overall I would recommend it for the beautiful room and typical dishes. Don't go if you're vegetarian!
