Were there for lunch today...Food very good but I think it's an absolute disgrace that you pay €12.40 for 1/4 Chardonnay... Completely overpriced as for various desserts...It's a shame actually...Absolutely not justified!!!!

We were here to eat. Have ordered slaughter plate. So far quite good. However, mini tomatoes in sauerkraut. That was quite strange. The gravy was also missing. For me the price-performance ratio wasn't right.

The hunter's sauce was slimy and I couldn't get it down. Very expensive. We were also harassed by the cellar to please order now even though we wanted to wait and in the end we were thrown out at 10 p.m.

We were just eating. I can't say anything about the hotel. Wine was horrible, my cooking wine is better. Spare ribs were delicious. Sauce from the boiled beef was tasteless and spoiled the whole dish even though the meat wasn't bad. In addition, there is no value for money. Conclusion: no risk of repetition.
