"The place where we wanted to go (La Winstub) was closed for summer vacations, so we went to this nearby restaurant based on Tripadvisor recommendations. It looked nice and convivial. My wife ordered carpacio, my son and I shared the fondue savoyarde. The carpacio was OK, nothing special but there was nothing wrong with it. The fondue, however, was a complete disaster. It was delivered on an old, dirty, worn-out rechaud which was impossible to regulate. Flames were coming out of orifices left and right and the cheese was completely overheated. We pushed the caquelon to the side and rotated it and kind of managed to keep the cheese from burning too badly. But the worst problem was that the cheese was separated into solids and liquids. This is a typical beginner's problem with cheese fondue (tip to the restaurant: try adding a little corn meal next time...). We tried to eat it but this separated mess just tasted all wrong. With cheese fondue, the flavor is mainly in the liquid parts, not in the solids, and the liquid stayed in the caquelon so what was on the bread that you eat was a stringy mass with all of the taste of chewing gum chewed for an hour.We tried to get the waiter's attention which took quite a while. There were two, but one disappeared for long periods of time somewhere, the other was two tables over chatting with his friends. After at least 5 minutes he deigned to come over. We explained what was wrong and he just extinguished the flame on the rechaud and said 'it will firm up.' We doubted very much that this would help (we have a lot of experience with fondue; we used to live in Switzerland and make it often at home) but we let him do it. Of course, exactly what we expected happened: the whole thing turned into a disgusting, lukewarm congealed mess. After this we had enough. We asked for the bill which was placed on our table. I put my credit card on it and waited for the waiter to come and get it. But he was again chatting to his friends. We waited some more. This was getting ridiculous. We called him, he pointedly ignored us. At this point I took the bill and CC and walked down to the back of the room where the other waiter had now appeared. Now the first waiter ran after me, told me I should have waited at the table for him and said that he had just been busy. Right!I don't even want to mention that we never got our water refilled. We had asked for water (carafe d'eau) with our drinks and they brought a small bottle for the three of us. We asked twice for more water, they never brought any more. I should note that the place was at best half-full, so it was not that the two waiters were really busy. The waiters made it very clear that they were not at all interested in us and that chatting with their buddies had way higher priority, even though our meal was barely edible."

Came here for a quick dinner on a Saturday with our 9 month old son. Had delicious wagyu & black angus beef on hot stone. Host and waiter were both very nice :)

Went looking for fondue this evening and searched this place out on trip advisor. We enjoyed fabulous meal of cheese fondue and meat cuisson. Recommended without hesitation.

The fondue Lorraine was amazing. The filet on the hot stone was perfect. And the best potatoes I have ever had. I have no idea how they make them. Great ambiance. Everything was excellent.
Leonid
Thoroughly enjoyed our two fondues at this small establishment. We had a bourguignon (Angus steak) and cheese (Savoyard) with a selection of bread, roast potatoes and a nicely prepared salad. Lovely wait staff who were happy to explain and make suggestions. Visualizza piatti

Unfortunatly we didnt get to eat here as they only served the fondue in the evening and we had the children with us so needed a more child friendly restaurant. However our host gave us a free beer whilst we were deciding what to do and gave our children lollipops to take away. Will definitely eat here one day.

We were very happy with out introduction to fondue with heureux comme alexandre. The portions of the two different kinds of fondue we had (oil and cheese) were very large, though the quality was only so-so. The place was also a little kitschy. However, the service was very good and it was very reasonably priced.

A colleague and me are in Metz for a business trip and were strolling through the city searching for a nice restaurant for dinner which we found here. One of us had a meat fondue, the other one was roasting his meat on a (very) hot stone. The quality of the meat was great, so is the concept of cooking and thus controlling the degree of doneness yourself. The side dishes and the atmosphere were okay as well. Recommended!

Came for lunch with my oldest friend while on a quick weekend holiday (I came from Germany, she came from the US), and decided to try fondue for lunch. We had the Savoyarde cheese fondue and the Wagyu filet that we cooked on the hot stone. Words can not explain how delicious the food was, and the host was so friendly and helpful. I would recommend this restaurant to everybody who goes to Metz, and I sincerely hope to return sooner rather than later!

We were for one night in Metz and were looking for a restaurant. Coincidently we passed by 'heureux comme Alexandre' and we asked whether they would have availability for the same evening and for us to come back. The guy advised us to make reservations for a table in case we wanted to come. First we thought he was making a joke, but when we were having dinner, we noticed he did not exagerate. The place was crowded! And we understand why. Very nice hot stone grill, with a variety of options to choose the type of meat you want. Nice atmosphere, nice people. For sure a place to go back to when in Metz again.
