This will have to go down as one of my all-time favorite restaurants. It's a cozy atmosphere, very…read morefriendly staff (can speak English, German, and French), and the food/drink is excellent. Also, the prices are reasonable for the experience. The 1st time I went here I had a quail which was delicious and enjoyed a crisp Riesling wine. For dessert I had the crème brûlée was pretty good. That time I went as a party of 3, but it was good we added a couple to make a party of 5. The next time I had the seafood bouillabaisse with some honey chamomile tea. The soup was delicious and the tea was presented well (tasted fine). Everyone appeared to enjoy their meal quite a bit. I tried the beef which was also delicious while the pork was a bit dry (still tasty). Overall, I highly recommend this place for a nice dinner (I'd totally have a romantic date here).

Sometimes I think I must be complainy, difficult and a very demanding customer, but this time I…read moremust say I was calm and relaxed and I just do not know what was going on that last time I visited "Le Coq" in Neuenheim. I was pleasantly surprised that when we were able to get a table without reservations at one of my favorite bistros in Heidelberg, on a Thursday night at that. Firstly rule, if you want to eat at Le Coq is make a reservation. Being able to walk in and get a table is like trying to win the Lotto, it doesn't happen often but you are very happy when it does. Naturally, the place was packed and we sipped a very good Sauvignon Blanc from the open wine list and chatted, while waiting for our main courses. Our food came and both my friend, J., and I realized that our fish with champagne sauce and spinach was terribly undersalted. No problem, we both grabbed the salt shaker a few times and added some salt to our meal. No complaining going on here, just a few joking comments about the cook definantly not being in love. Time to pay and the very nice waiter asks us how the food was people he asked am I supposed to say good if it is undersalted. Hmmmm?! So we mentions that the fish entree could have used more salt. Is that really so terrible? Hmmmm?! Didn't think so until the manager came over smelling like stale smoke and berates, yes berates, us for my comment. Telling me that I know nothing about making delicate champagne sauce and feeding 100's of people a night. (Hey, who knows maybe the other 100 people thought the fish was undersalted. Do I know?) I gently try to let him know that I was asked how the food was and mentioned it was undersalted, no crime on my part and hey, I am still the customer and paying a good EUR 20,00 for my dish. Do I deserve this kind of attitude from the manager? So anyways, now that I have vented, I feel better. I still love the french bistro Le Coq in Neuenheim, but I hope the manager has a better day the next time I eat there and the cook uses a bit more salt. Hey, but that is just my opinion.

Great restaurant experience! I stepped in to get away from all the German cuisine I'd been eating…read more This place feels really welcoming as soon as you walk in, and the staff was extremely friendly. I sat at the bar and got amazing service with some really good recommendations for wine. I chose the Dorado for my main, and the fish had so much flavor and tenderness. It all paired really well with the tomato sauce and rice. White fish can sometimes be plain, so I was really happy with how the chef prepared the dish. I finished it off with a vanilla creme brûlée that had the perfect creamy texture and a nice hard sugar shell. I'm normally not a dessert guy, but again, the young lady behind the bar recommended it and paired it with a port that really brought out the vanilla flavors. Quick note, the menu seemed to only be available in French and German. Fortunately my high school French came back after my first glass of wine. Overall a really enjoyable experience and I'd definitely recommend.

It didn't hurt that the al fresco weather was sublime. What a well-balanced menu and wine selection with just the right level of service, allowing us our space and not stepping on any of the lovely dishes served, including a fantastic fois gras plate...followed by a generous helping of high quality veal medallions with a savory mushroom sauce. Add great au gratin potatoes and fresh vegetables and we reached "fantastic." The salmon and gorgeous local asparagus were outstanding. Can't wait to go back and try the namesake dish and other enticing selections we saw going by...the cheese board looked classic.

More like a 3.5 star, but rounding up to 4 because of their wine pairing…read more I was staying at the hotel this restaurant is located in and asked if they had anything around 7pm. They said the next available seating would be an hour, so I happily took the 8pm. I was shocked to see how empty the restaurant was, though when I arrived! I opted for the 5 course tasting menu which was the smaller of the two. Glad I did because their portions are quite big here for a Chef's Tasting Menu. The food was good, but no standouts of the night. There was nothing in particular about the entire meal that impressed me. However, the dishes were colorful and beautiful! What I REALLY enjoyed was the wine pairing. Each glass complimented each dish perfectly. If only they served it in a timely manner... so not a Michelin experience, IMO. Service was all over the place. I wasn't really checked on and one dish a server just came by and took it away without asking If I was done... and no, I was not done. They didn't really time my wine pairing with the meals which put me off. Not sure how Michelin rated restaurants in Germany go, but I was not really impressed with this one. Decent food, not so great service. If someone asked me to go back, I wouldn't be opposed to it... but certainly not a Michelin experience I'd recommend to anyone... just a restaurant to go to for a decent meal.

Starter: Alsatian Goose Liver - Very rich and combinations were spot on. Bread that went with it was housemade and really tasty Main: Veal - cooked perfectly but the highlight for me in this dish was the eggplant. Tender and flavorful. Spice rub/topping on the top was great. Dessert: Went with the cheese. Selection of at least 15 cheeses. You're likely to find several you'll like. Price was reasonable for a Michelin star place. Great place for a formal business lunch or a romantic dinner. The restaurant also has a patio if you'd like to dine in open air. Not on such a busy road that it would be noisy and the hotel has columns and a courtyard that separates the restaurant from the street.

Both times the ambience has been lovely and the staff has been very kind and helpful despite the restaurant being very busy each time.

The staff is so knowledgeable that they can guide you through the list with great care and detail. By the end of your evening you will know much more about German and Franconia wines than when you first walked in. Amazing experiences both times, and I look forward to returning!

Of the four dinners during our trip, we probably enjoyed this one the most given our connection with our server and the fun/upbeat atmosphere of the restaurant. We had to start with the classic French Onion Soup au Gratin, which was served with a thick layer of cheese and was piping hot. Great way to warm up on a rainy evening. Our server suggested I try the Shrimp Salad with green beans & avocado. It seemed like an odd combination of ingredients, but oh was I wrong. All the flavors and textures popped. The butterfly shrimp were incredible. As someone who loves Mussels, I met my match with the entrée size bowl served in creamy white wine sauce and with french fries. I made a gallant attempt to finish it, but fell short. It was a feast and cost only 34 Euros. My daughter met her match with the French Minced Potato Casserole au Gratin. Super rich and delish. The portion was huge, almost appropriate for family style dining. I wish I could bring this restaurant back to the United States.

The ambiance is elegant, warm and luxurious. The service is experienced and informed. My only complaint, although small, was the wine pour. My husband does not drink much and I don't want to drink a whole bottle by myself, so we ordered by the glass. The pour was tiny; more like a pairing pour. I was going to mention it, when he poured again. So, I thought maybe it was a regional difference in service. When the bill came, they charged for every tiny pour. I don't know if this is a house policy or if the waiter made that decision. It didn't ruin the evening, it was just the only disappointment. You decide if that matters.

We decided on the menu of the day and among the 4 tried various options from their menu. For starters, we tried the salad, tomato soup, arabian soup and pate. The salad was large with a simple dressing, tomato soup ok, arabian soup disappointing and pate disappointing as well. The arabian soup was bitter, with an uneven use of curry spices. The pate was bland with overwhelming use of peppercorns. For entrees we had the fish and pork dishes. The fish itself was good but there was very very little of the cream sauce (which it needed) and the vegetables and pasta were bland, without sauce or seasonings. The best part of the dinner were the saint-emilion wine and dessert. A fruit compote with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and berries. Still a lovely time with friends.

We started with the salad (simple but perfect) and the spinach crepe (delicious but too many soft textures for my liking).

My partner got the lamb rack and it was delicious also. I got the chocolate mouse (perfect and paired with whipped cream) and my partner got the cream puff (equally incredible). The service was also wonderful.
