Au Crocodile ReviewA beautiful sky-lit restaurant, Au Crocodile serves the most inventive food in Strasbourg. Only two restaurants in this region equal it: Le Buerehiesel and the Auberge de l'Ill. An especially appealing feature is the fixed-price menus that revolve around creative themes, which have included Egypt and Victor Hugo. Chef Emile Jung offers a wide array of inventive dishes. Some of the best include strips of duckling cooked in a sauce of red wine and a reduction of the bird's blood; sautéed scallops with purée of celery and Indian-style (Marsala-style) spiced butter sauce; delicate local freshwater whitefish (sandre) served in sauerkraut; and duck liver cooked in a salt crust. Our major problem comes only when the bill (la note, as the French say) arrives -- especially when we indulge in the high-priced wines.

| 2 stars | Frommer's Very Highly Recommended | |
| 3 stars | Frommer's Exceptional |
Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
