Restaurant Le Sud
Nestled in Luxembourg’s trendy Clausen neighbourhood and close to the old city centre, Le Sud is a high-end French and Luxembourg-style restaurant where customers can dine in the elegant ground-level restaurant or enjoy impressive panoramas across the city from the terrace, which is accessible by a glass lift. The menu at Le Sud is relatively compact, but no matter what you choose, every dish comes beautifully prepared with the utmost attention to detail. Try its signature pigeonneau de Monsieur Thierry Laurent (stuffed and crusted squab with truffle mashed potatoes) or truffle risotto with a local Mosel wine or Clausel beer, which is brewed right next door.
Restaurant Le Stübli
The atmosphere and the interior design of this restaurant are beautifully reminiscent of mountain chalets. Cozy, inviting and luxurious, the interior design of this restaurant is dominated by wood in light shades. This traditional and exquisite atmosphere is accompanied by a flavorful and generous menu that offers traditional dishes, delicious homemade pastries and desserts to die for. Well-known not only for its specialities but also for its warm and intriguing atmosphere, Le Stübli is a gourmet hotspot in Kirchberg.
Chocolate House (Dessert)
Located across the Grand Ducal Palace you can enjoy the view and a gigantic amount of chocolates, cakes and other sweets. With its outdoor seating and indoor medieval interior design the choice is yours to make. The ground floor reminded me of a fantasy shop in a movie like Harry Potter and is worth to linger for a minute and take a couple of shots of all the mouthwatering sweets. They also have a lunch menu, which is standard with mint lemon sorbet lemonade that stands out and is incredibly delectable.
Oak Bistro
Raw juice, fresh soup, as well as main dishes and desserts that change daily are provided in this relaxed setting with lovely wooden decor. Daily specials include black beans with baked potato, cabbage and asparagus salad, as well as aubergine ragout with creamy polenta and roasted vegetables.
Mosconi
This Michelin starred restaurant (yes Luxembourg has quite a lot of these) is worth taking the time and reserving a table ahead of your visit. The restaurant is situated on the banks of the Alzette River in de heart of the Grund district. The chef creates the most incredible Italian dishes you will taste in Luxembourg with a lighter than air homemade pasta that takes the lead in a varied scrumptious menu.
Le Bouquet Garni
Delighting your senses with every bite, Le Bouquet Garni, which is headed up by Michelin-star chef Thierry Duhr, is one of Luxembourg City’s top French restaurants. With attention to quality and freshness, Duhr and his team only use seasonal vegetables and the finest cuts of meat and fish to create their imaginative European dishes. Examples include roasted veal meatballs with truffle butter and duck breast in hazelnut sauce. The restaurant lies inside an 18th-century home within the heart of the historical city centre and steps away from the Grand Ducal Palace. The exposed stone and period fireplace create a welcoming atmosphere, helping to ensure both the meal and the evening are memorable.
La Boqueria Luxembourg
Cle de Sol
The artistic restaurant Cle de Sol or Key of Sol can be easily found in the impressive concert hall of the Philharmonic at the Europe Square. Open for lunch the whole week from Monday to Friday, this place offers semi-gastronomic cuisine based on an imaginative mixture of flavors and textures. For a lovely dinner with friends, though, the restaurant is open only during concerts. Reservations for private events and dinner are also accepted. If the weather is nice, don’t miss the chance to enjoy your lunch or dinner under the sunny sky or under the stars.
