He is full of joy and kindness, which is reflected in the charming atmosphere of his authentic German restaurant. The lodging is comfortable and modest.

It feels like a home away from home! Best vacation ever!

We did come a bit early, we didn't realize the restaurant was not open. But the staff was very friendly and brought us drinks. We waited a bit before asking for food. There is a standard menu for guests; however, they were nice enough to switch the salad for me. You can also come and order off of their menu if you are not a guest. We got the pancake noodle soup, caprese & mixed salad, Hungarian goulash, and they brought us a red berry pudding with vanilla ice cream. It was all very good. I asked for a hit chocolate with amaretto and tHeh did a wonderful job and presentation! Update: 2nd night there was a different menu which was much better than the night before! Included a mixed salad, herbed turkey with country potatoes, and a delicious cheese strawberry torte!

Yes an incongruous dish for the Scharwartzvalde but so popular in town that it was booked solid for the 7:00 sitting. Graham combines perfect English being from England and German efficiency having lived there many years. Hint do not sit at the table reserved for daily townsfolk. We were invited by Graham inside where we ordered off the regular menu before the big event started. Tired and hungry after driving many hours it was a delight to sit down to good beer and great food. Had the Spargle in season with hollindaise sauce. Get 1/2 smoked ham half not with it. Pancakes are also traditional. Great Schnitzel too! The owner has quite a sense of humour and though very busy graciously spent some time with us. Excellent Apple strudel with ice cream ended the evening. Highly recommended.

Flavorful and melted in our mouth The veal carpaccio was excellent. Top notch oil and tender as could be. My sea bass had a perfect, crispy skin. Moist meat and seasoned wonderfully. The venison was tender and the sauce was a perfect complement. The mushrooms were delectable and a perfect side with the meat. The creme brulee was the best I have ever had. Crunchy top, smooth base, loads of fresh vanilla. Service was superior. They brought out our meal at the right pace for us. They described our dishes and were very attentive. The dining area is old school and had unique chairs at each table. Although the Michelin star restaurant gets all the attention, if you eat here, you will be very happy you did.

They speak English so the phone translation apps aren't needed here. The food was delicious! Served hot and well portioned. We really enjoyed it. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is tricky-- you will have to walk from a parking lot to get there. A couple call outs on the differences from America to Germany: 1. Speed- they do not come to you quickly after getting menus nor after being clearly done with your meal. You need to flag them down. They have a much longer "hang out" time at restaurants and they don't want to rush you out. 2. Charges/tips- water is not free, you will pay for it and it isn't a glass, it's a small bottle they bring to the table. Also, they aren't a tipping culture. Generally people just round up to the nearest 5. Example: bill is $9 and you give a $10.

The traditional old farmhouse, family setting is amazing. Go up the stairs, order your food and they will call out the window when it's ready. The only reason I don't give this lovely place 5 stars is because there generally isn't table service outside. I love the strammermax and the strausburger wurstsalat. Fun walk through the woods too!
