    The food was outstanding. Flammkuchen very crispy, Rinderroulade and Schweinshaxe both very tender, lots of flavour. Kaesspaetzle really authentic. The cake menu was impressive, lots of choice: Apfelstrudel, Sachertorte, Donauwelle, Kaesekuchen, Walnuss-Quitten Baiser Torte , all excellent. My only criticism would be with the Mohnkuchen, which had the wrong base. The filling was very nice but it was on a soft base rather than the traditional crust . Also no Streusel on top. Service was excellent too, very attentive and patient. Again just one slight criticism that one waiter was struggling to understand the names of the dishes (which are printed in German on the menu) when taking the order. Maybe a quick crash course of German pronunciation for all waiters wouldn’t go a miss, similar to the wine menu, which does explain how to pronounce Weinkarte.

    Such a lovely evening! The food was just incredible, particularly the venison tartare, pork loin and beef cheek. Just amazing. Such lovely staff who were always ready to help and even treated us to a complimentary pudding for our special occasion! The Guinness was also a major highlight. Huge fun sitting near the bar upstairs and watching the cooks create everything. Can’t wait to come back again, thank you for looking after us so brilliantly!
