Restaurant in Remiremont, France
Michelin-recognised value in the Vosges.
Le Clos Heurtebise holds a Michelin Plate in both 2024 and 2025, making it the strongest modern cuisine address in Remiremont at a €€ price point. With a 4.6 Google rating across 139 reviews and easy booking, it is the practical choice for a serious dinner in the Vosges without driving to Strasbourg. Autumn is the best season to visit.
Le Clos Heurtebise is Remiremont's most credentialled modern cuisine address, holding a Michelin Plate in both 2024 and 2025 at a €€ price point that makes it considerably more accessible than the Michelin-recognised competition in the wider Alsace-Lorraine region. If you've visited once and wondered whether it merits a return, the answer is yes — particularly if you come at the right time of year and push beyond the obvious choices on the menu. Booking is easy, prices are reasonable, and the Michelin recognition provides a reliable floor for quality. For a special dinner in the Vosges without the financial commitment of a three-star experience, this is the address to know.
Remiremont is a small market town in the Vosges mountains, not a city that draws restaurant tourists in the way that Strasbourg or Colmar does. That is precisely what makes Le Clos Heurtebise worth understanding. In a town of this size, a consecutively Michelin-recognised modern cuisine restaurant is not a given — it is an anchor. The venue at 13 Chemin des Capucins operates in a context where the nearest comparable Michelin-standard dining requires a significant drive: Au Crocodile in Strasbourg is over an hour away, and the celebrated Auberge de l'Ill in Illhaeusern is further still. For anyone staying in or around Remiremont , whether for hiking, the valley scenery, or a longer Vosges itinerary , Le Clos Heurtebise is not a compromise option. It is the option.
Its Google rating of 4.6 across 139 reviews is a useful signal here. That volume of reviews for a restaurant in a town of this scale, maintaining a 4.6 average, points to consistent execution rather than a single exceptional visit skewing the numbers. Repeat business in a local market is harder to fake than a spike of tourist reviews, and the Michelin Plate recognition across two consecutive years reinforces the picture. This is a kitchen that has found its level and is holding it.
For a return visitor, timing makes a material difference. The Vosges region shifts considerably across seasons: summer brings long evenings and the opportunity to arrive while there is still light over the hills surrounding Remiremont, which changes the character of the meal. Autumn is the stronger argument for the food itself , the region's produce calendar peaks in September and October, when game, mushrooms, and root vegetables from the surrounding countryside give a modern cuisine kitchen the most to work with. If your first visit was in spring or summer, an autumn return will likely read as a different restaurant in terms of what arrives on the plate.
Midweek evenings tend to be quieter than Friday and Saturday in restaurants of this type in smaller French towns, which matters if you value attentive service over a full room. If you prefer the energy of a busier service, Saturday dinner is the right call. The restaurant's easy booking difficulty means you are not competing for tables weeks in advance , but for a Saturday in autumn, booking a week or two ahead is sensible rather than essential.
If your first visit established what the kitchen can do, a second visit is the moment to test its range. Modern cuisine at the €€ tier in France often means a fixed or semi-fixed menu format, where the kitchen's point of view comes through more clearly than in à la carte settings. Ask about the current tasting menu format if one is available , at this price point, it is likely to represent the better value path through the kitchen's current thinking. For context, Flocons de Sel in Megève and Bras in Laguiole both demonstrate how regional French kitchens at the Michelin level use tasting formats to anchor their identity in local terroir , it is worth asking whether Le Clos Heurtebise takes a similar approach.
The Vosges is not a major wine region in its own right, but its proximity to Alsace means the wine list at any serious restaurant in this area should include strong Alsatian representation. If you are building a full evening around the meal, the Remiremont wineries guide and the broader context of Alsatian producers is worth consulting in advance.
Le Clos Heurtebise sits at €€, which places it in a different tier entirely from the Paris-based reference points in Michelin-recognised modern French cuisine. Alléno Paris au Pavillon Ledoyen, Mirazur in Menton, and Troisgros in Ouches are not direct competitors , they operate at a different price and prestige level. The more useful comparison is with other Michelin-recognised regional anchors: Assiette Champenoise in Reims or Auberge du Vieux Puits in Fontjoncouse show what regional Michelin restaurants can achieve when they commit fully to a specific place and its produce. Le Clos Heurtebise operates at a lower price point than either, and without the star designation, but the two consecutive Michelin Plates and the sustained Google rating suggest a kitchen that takes its work seriously. For the Vosges specifically, there is no closer alternative at this quality level.
