Italian restaurantStrasbourg
A homemade Italian table, served under the stone vaults of the Caveau, just minutes from central Strasbourg.
The Caveau's table
At Le Caveau de Schiltigheim, Italy is cooked on site, every day, in a 400 m² vaulted cellar a stone's throw from Strasbourg.
Step through the door and you find an Italian restaurant built for the long table and the evening that lingers: Roman pinsas with matured dough, charcuterie and cheese boards, sharing plates and daily specials. Nothing arrives ready-made — the cooking is homemade, driven by chosen produce and a menu that follows the seasons.
Here, Italy is not just on the plate: it carries on through a cellar of independent winemakers, a room of bare stone and a live stage that stirs the vaults several nights a week. It is this meeting of food, wine and music that makes the place stand apart in the Strasbourg area.

The setting
A 400 m² vaulted cellar, bare stone and remarkable acoustics: the setting is part of the meal.
Le Caveau de Schiltigheim is not an Italian restaurant like the others: you dine in a vaulted cellar, among stone, wood and velvet, sheltered from the bustle of the city centre. The place suits an intimate dinner for two as much as a large table of friends, and the mood shifts the moment a concert begins.
This unique room can also be booked privately for a birthday, a seminar or a company evening around the Italian table, with a menu and wine selection put together with the team.
Table & live stage
At the Caveau, the meal doesn't end with dessert. Several nights a week, the stage hosts jazz, blues, rock, electro swing or DJ sets. It's the moment to extend an Italian dinner around a last glass of winemaker's wine, a shared board and the music that sets the rest of the night.
