Restaurant Julien Binz

Creative Alsatian · Ammerschwihr · Ammerschwihr (~12km N of Colmar, Wine Route) · Michelin One Star · Chef Julien Binz

Restaurant Julien Binz in Ammerschwihr is the mature expression of a chef who spent 20+ years at Auberge de l'Ill before opening his own house. Julien Binz (Maître-Cuisinier de France) celebrated 10 years and his restaurant's new kitchen in 2025. Three tasting menus showcase his mastery: Or du Temps (€59), Binz'tronome (€105, chef's surprise), and the prestige Fragonard (€134). His deep Alsatian training produces dishes of extraordinary restraint and precision — the cuisine of a chef who, as Michelin puts it, has 'no secrets' in the kitchen.
