Hello everyoneI had dinner with my family yesterday. We got a beautiful table for 5 people. Right at the back. Very nice view! We had ordered game specialties. Everything is tip top! Tasted great. Venison entrecoute medium fried to perfection. 👍As well as everything else. Goran served us and we were very satisfied. Kind regards to him. My origins are the same 😉Please keep it up! Guaranteed to see you next time! 😁

We were spoiled from A for aperitif to Z for dinner. The service was present but not intrusive. The menu was varied but not overloaded and the food wasn't just a feast for the eyes. At our 10-person à la carte table, all guests were served their food almost at the same time. Chapeau. Thank you for a successful evening.

Yesterday I wanted to have another nice meal with my sister in the evening at 6:15 p.m. We were here on Monday too, we are always regular guests. Yesterday, however, the reception was miserable, we were neither looked at nor greeted, the gentleman was very unfriendly. Customer service is different, but you probably don't need it.The tall, slim Mr. H is always very friendly.

Table outside, on the edge, booked because there is a dog, which may indicate if another dog walks past the table too close. Service: bring the dog in the car! It doesn't work, it won't survive in the heat. Service: then your “problem” is solved! 😱🤮 By the way, the dog then remained completely silent for over 2 hours, as expected, but we are among the most careful and considerate dog owners. It was a joke - what else can management say...

Fantastic location on the lakeside terrace, nice staff, good food. There must have been a change of ownership, although (for me) the personal charm may have fallen by the wayside. I'll just test again and gain new experiences.I can't provide any references to the hotel industry as I never stayed there.

We were guests at a family celebration, unfortunately we were disappointed by the service staff, empties were never cleared from the tables, neither during the appetizer nor during the meal, you had to be happy to get …
