This time I had the pumpkin soup for a starter and the veal fillet for my main. The soup was good, very tasty. The veal was also very good, well cooked - still a bit red. The veal came with some tempura veggies that were excellently cooked, a nice crispy batter and excellent taste. I had a beer with dinner, but they have a nice selection of wine as well. They had a small selection of deserts. I tried a few And they were all very nice. It's a very nice restaurant and it was all very tasty, but for the price I expect a bit more.

It was delicious and simple food: we ordered a big antipasti plate with ham, cheese, olives, falafel, and meatballs to share. I had the Gemischte Ravioli (mixed ravioli) and it was a fantastic sampling of all their ravioli types in a sage-butter sauce. For dessert, the Quarkgriessknodel (vanilla ice cream with fruit and cinnamon cake-balls) was definitely the best option. The joghurtglace was a scoop of frozen yogurt with nuts - no sauce, kinda dry. Definitely a great place to grab dinner and drinks with my coworkers on a business trip - but warning: menu is only in German.

A bit of a let-down after reading some rave reviews. The rabbit with couscous was disappointing -…read morethe rabbit was nothing special (just stewed meat) and the couscous flavors just didn't seem to fit together. The gorgonzola gnocchi were exceptional. The mixed ravioli (the house specialty) was very very good. Service was ok but a bit inattentive. Overall not bad, but not a 5.

Olivier Flota one of the owners seated and waited on our table.

We did wine pairing and enjoyed choices of wine. Only downside is the very controlling interaction of the lady who explains each dish and other necessary info. I felt somewhat unpleasant as she was a bit rough.. like soup Nazi from TV show. It might be better to provide a note of each menu item so she doesn't have to interrupt people conversations or act/talk like a boss.

Service is awesome. Food is fantastic…read more They serve a "menu surprise" with your choice of a 3, 4 or 5 course meal. The chef is great with accommodating those who have food sensitivities. The menu offers fish, meat, and vegetarian options. You can also have wine pairing with your meal. Great atmosphere and personable staff. A good venue to host a gathering or a business lunch/dinner. If you let the establishment staff know ahead of time your preferences insofar as menu or setup for your group they are good at accommodating.
