Today we had lunch in the castle restaurant for the first time in a long time. The location is undoubtedly simply fantastic, the golden October day made the vineyards and the Rhine shine.But what we experienced in the restaurant was simply incredible. My consommé starter was good. As a vegetarian MAIN dish, I ordered salsify with truffles (€28) and got a whopping TWO roots with very little decoration and side dish. Since the dish was also available as an intermediate course (20€), I asked the waiter if this was really the main course version. The answer was: “Yes, because there would be ONE root for the intermediate course and, after all, there would be truffles!” I couldn't believe it because - for example, in an asparagus main course you would never serve just two spears as the main component. I then asked to speak to the chef. The answer was, “I’ll see if he has time.” I ate my extremely meager meal and it appeared…. no one. We drank another espresso and I asked again for the chef. “He’s stressed and doesn’t have time,” was the answer. More than surprising given that there were five occupied tables at the end of lunchtime. There was probably no need to deal with an unhappy guest.A real disgrace for any self-respecting restaurant. The many dead flies on the window sills or the very dirty sun blinds are only mentioned in passing.It's such a shame that you seem to be resting on the fact that people come because of the location anyway.

We spent two beautiful nights at the hotel . Our room|Was spacious and surrounded by fantastic trees . The welcome by the staff were civil but certainly not overly warm. I attribute that to the culture . We ate at both restaurants. …

We had lunch at Brasserie Müllers. The restaurant was also in a great location with very good weather. We chose PFIFFERLING CAPPUCINO and SEASONAL SALAD FROM KELTENHOF as starters and WAGYU BURGER and MÜLLER'S BACKFISCH. Everything was on point and tasted delicious. Highly recommended.
