Le Sud

Top choice in Luxembourg City


Crémant-poached lobster, brioche-crumbed garlic snails, line-caught John Dory with artichoke mousseline and Grand Marnier soufflé are among the refined French dishes at this stone-walled restaurant in the historic Rives de Clausen neighbourhood. Stupendous views extend over the area's rooftops and wooded hillsides from the bar's panoramic rooftop terrace.
