Slightly upmarket Restaurant at the City Port (Stadthafen) in Rostock in an unassuming Building…read more Sitting outside at the docks is great in Summer and the inside is also quite nice. My fish-dish as my main course was very nicely prepared, fried just right and not dry at all. The sides (Pasta) were without fault, but could have been more interesting. The Fish really was the star on my plate, the rest quite forgettable. Dessert was great. I was especially happy with the Caramel Beurre salé Ice cream - you don't often find that outside of france and then rarely this competently done. Chapeau! Prices are absolutely justified and not that high to start with. They use quality produce and prepare it very well. Service was very friendly but not without fault. The food arrived before we had finished the Apéritif and the wine we ordered also hadn't arrived yet. But those are minor inconveniences. Reservations a couple of days in advance are recommended.

Just... Wow! Went to Rostock for a weekend getaway with someone I hold dear. Went here for lunch on…read moreSaturday and had what may just be the best pork chop I've had in my life. But I get ahead of myself... Altstaedter Stuben is, as the name implies, located in Rostocks Altstadt (old town district), and serves German classics. The decor in the front room was neat but informal, otherwise nothing to write home about. The service was good, and the waiter kindly let us practise our German language skills (or lack thereof) even though he seemed fluent in English. My partner and I both opted for the "Stielkotelett vom Duroc," or pork chop, which came with potatoes, turnips, mixed vegetables and a mustard sauce that had a little bite but not too much so it didn't steal your attention. The chop was topped with a twig of thyme, and finally the whole thing had been sprinkled with dried flower petals, which both looked good and added a whiff of much needed spring to a grey March day. I'd like to visit Rostock again at a warmer time of year. If and when that happens I'll be sure to come back here.
