A personal anecdote
A few years ago, I had the opportunity to spend an unforgettable moment at the Katz House. With friends, we decided to celebrate a birthday there. Upon entering, the aroma of simmering dishes and the warm atmosphere immediately captivated us. What truly struck me was the attentive service and the stories shared by the staff about the history of the place.

It was a moment of sharing and exchanges, making a simple meal much more special. I left the Katz Tavern with a sweet melody of Alsace in my heart, reflecting on it as a haven of tradition and human warmth.
