Very tasty food, friendly service, paper and pens for the little ones to pass the time until the food came.The only deduction is that the kitchen doesn't start until 12 p.m. 11 a.m. would be more pleasant for families with small children.

Nice terrace to sit outside. Food is very tasty. The staff was very friendly.What's not so nice are the very high prices for food and drinks. €6.20 for half a beer is very cheeky.The food portions are sometimes very large. Less for a smaller price would be better. If you look around at what's left on the plates, it's a shame and a waste.It does have a small touch of tourist rip-off.I don't think paying with a card at reception is very modern for a restaurant in this price range. There should already be a mobile terminal in there.Addendum to revisit on November 1st: Staff was very slow and almost left. Sitting inside was very cold as the door was constantly open. Feeling good was not the order of the day. A little heating would be appropriate at this time of year, especially for a hotel restaurant.

Food was tasty and served quickly. However, the prices are crazy... Schnitzel with fries is available for €23, steak au four for around €25. I also had hair in my food during my visit, so it's apparently included in the price.But the staff was friendly and helpful...

All dishes were extremely tasty and served very attractively. Although almost every seat was occupied, the service was quick and very friendly. The food also came very quickly. At first I was afraid that it was a tourist rip-off, but I was absolutely pleasantly surprised here!
