I had to remove most of it to get to the potato. The chicken was well seasoned. The salad wasn't My uncle's spaëtzle wasn't what I'm used to seeing. It had a lot of creamy sauce underneath.

The service was extremely friendly and accommodating for tourists and helped us order what we were looking for, (chicken Schnitzel). The food arrived quickly and was perhaps the best meal we had in Europe. Both of us ordered the Chicken Schnitzel with Rahm sauce, a mushroom gravy, and our plates were cleaned off. The restaurant was cozy and cute with a German vibe that you would imagine from a fairytale. We loved it.

I thought the service was friendly but they were a bit understaffed this particular day and things moved on the slower side. Pork knuckle plate Massive presentation of meat - you'd best be hungry here. Nice helping of sauerkraut- the sourness of which offsets the savory meat. Although I thought the pork was mostly dry. The skin is also surprisingly chewy/sticky/gooey rather than crisp or brittle. Finally, the scoops of "potato mash" is weird - it has a gelatinous quality that isn't normal for American palates. Schnitzel - which is sort of like the German version of tonkatsu, breaded pork filet. Recommend getting the mushroom sauce to help with the dryness. Served with a nice mixed salad. Kaffee Rüdesheim - when in Rome... this is a coffee with apple brandy and nice flaming presentation that everyone should see. Pretty cool. That's all...

We were seated right away but found out before ordering they only accept cash for payment.

Most people while traveling don't carry a lot of cash on them for safety reasons so we found it hard to believe they would not accept a card. Oh well!

Meal: Lunch, eat in…read more All Ratings out of 10: Quality of food: 8 Food to Spend Value: 8 Quality of Service: 7 Overall Rating: 8 I was heading back from a business trip in Europe with a coworker, and we were spending the day in Germany. We were in the Rhine River Valley in Sankt Goar near Rhinefels Castle (a wonderful spot to visit if you are in the area!), and we were hungry for lunch. Restaurant Zur Loreley had a great looking menu with authentic German food and great reviews to go along with it, so we decided to check it out for lunch. Like many (most?) restaurants in Germany, they have a single brewery they are linked with, so I got the pils on draft (sadly the name currently escapes me). It was very light but had a great flavor, and it served to remind me yet again how fabulous German beers are. I decided to start with a soup, and the tomato cream soup sounded wonderful. It was indeed wonderful--thick, creamy, with a nice robust flavor. It was the perfect start to the meal. I should also mention that the menus were available both in German and in English, which helped quite a bit since I don't speak German. We ordered 2 entrees for lunch. My coworker ordered a schnitzel which came covered with mushrooms and accompanied with pan fried potatoes. I decided that I was pretty hungry so ordered a 3 filet sampler that included 2 pork loin filets and a beef loin filet, served with mushrooms, pan fried potatoes, broccoli, carrots, and other veggies. The schnitzel had a great flavor, with a light fried batter outside and very tender, moist meat on the inside. It tasted amazing with the mushrooms, which were perfectly tender. The potatoes were also quite nice, with just the right texture and crisp. The 3 filets were prepared very well, again being tender and juicy and satisfying the taste buds. The mushrooms and potatoes were identical to the ones that came with the other dish, but they were equally yummy. The vegetables were also good and made for a well-rounded meal. The restaurant is attached to a hotel and was very quaint and homey inside. The service was very friendly and accommodating, particularly for 2 Americans who don't speak German. Not only was the food delicious, but the portions were quite large. They do offer smaller versions of plates if you are not so hungry, and we could see why given that we were unable to finish our food. The prices were also quite reasonable. Hotel restaurants are generally stereotyped (at least in the US) as being mediocre, but this certainly did not apply to Restaurant Zur Loreley. If you are visiting Rheinfels Castle (or just happen to be in the area), you should definitely stop by, as you will not be disappointed.

I had the pig knuckle which was one of their specialties. It was really good, tasting more like rotisserie chicken dark meat than pork or ham. The side dish of potato salad was also very good, without too much mustard. My wife enjoyed a very large Mediterranean salad with plenty of feta cheese and Kalamata olives. Closed off the meal with a great molten cake with ice cream. We sat inside which had a nice uncluttered and roomy atmosphere with just enough Mosel river theme to it. We very much enjoyed Gastatte Noss.
