A standard in the culinarian scene of Cologne since almost 30 years the Moissonniers have developed this place in a sinister quarter of the city from a charming French bistro into a gourmet temple with two Micherlin stars, but still retain the relaxed atmosphere of the former days. Their philosphy seems to be, that great food and wine can be... More

a stay at "Le Moissonnier" is like being in Paris. Mrs. and Mr. Moissonnier celebrate their 2 michelin stars and you will be part of it. It is an authentic place with excellent food in a wonderful ambiente!

We got lucky and enjoyed a table at Le Moissonnier, a two-star Michelin for dinner. Started with Oysters (Fine de Claire, Maldon and Amoricaine), Foie Gras terrine and Icelandic Langoustines. Then it was on to Ris de veau and Breton John Dory. Guess we showed our delight cause we were honored by the unexpected visit of Chef Eric Menchon. Vincent... More

Even though it gets loud in the charming little brasserie it is one of Colognes pearls. I love the restaurant the food and the very personal service. A place to go for every little celebration in life.

If the outcomes of all French/German ventures were like this, the British would be begging to remain in the EU! Not a cheap restaurant, but, if you're looking for a great selection of dishes, all presented in an innovative way, and from a kitchen which is clearly talented, then this is one not to miss. Front of house is organised... More

Le Moissonnier is a hidden gem. French Brasserie and the French owners Vincent and Liliane make you feel at home. Staff is friendly and professional. But the true gem is the innovative, creative and so delicious food. Do not forget to save some room for their great cheese platter. Le Moissonnier, a truly gourmet experience. Cannot wait to come back... More

Everything we had was an explosion of wonderful flavors. The wine was also superb. This isn't the traditional French cooking. Everything was unique without being odd or trendy. It all came together beautifully. The portions are small and the prices high (our seafood appetizer was $40 Euros) so expect to pay for the quality rather than the quantity. Really a... More

We dined here on a busy Saturday evening and had the set menu which had 5 or 6 courses. The food was amazing and so were the staff. The dishes were quite complex and were very well presented with a good explanation of the components and construction. We asked for a change to the menu which was no problem. The... More

Great combination of setting and cuisine: In this typical French bistro you get very good plates. Unfortunately, the quality of the dishes varies too much (within a high standard). Last time the starter was very creative on an haute-cuisine level, the entrée was only okay and the dessert a mistake. Nonetheless, a very nice place to go.
