"The best steak I have ever tasted! Great food for everyone on the table. Super nice waiter and super good service. Also a great place to bring a 3 year old, both because of the food, a playing area and the gentle people working there"

"I had an absolutely incredible dining experience at this restaurant! From start to finish, every aspect of my visit was impeccable. Let's start with the highlight: the food. The meat dishes were nothing short of phenomenal! Each bite was bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked to perfection. The quality of the ingredients truly shone through in every dish, leaving me craving more long after the meal was over. But it wasn't just the food that impressed me. The service was truly fantastic. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that I felt welcomed and well taken care of. From the moment I walked in, I felt like a valued customer, and that level of attentiveness continued throughout the entire meal. Overall, I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. Whether you're a meat lover or simply looking for an exceptional dining experience, this place is an absolute must-visit. Five stars all the way!"

"During a weekend getaway we more or less stumbled upon this restaurant and decided to have dinner there. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed in a friendly way and shown to our table. What immediately stood out was the staff: extremely polite, welcoming and hygienic. We were even treated to a complimentary starter, without having to ask for it. When ordering, the staff really took the time to think along with us and making small changes to dishes was absolutely no problem (for example: preferring onions instead of mushrooms). The steaks were cooked exactly the way we asked for and tasted great. The quality of the meat was average, but considering the prices, there’s really nothing to complain about. Later on, the chef came by our table as well. In fine dining restaurants this is more or less standard, but here it felt like a genuinely nice and personal touch. It was clear the chef takes real pleasure in his work, and that matters. A lot. Overall, it was a great dinner, mainly thanks to the outstanding staff. And of course, since this is a German restaurant, you can’t forget the final shot. By that time, they had already noticed that we enjoy a good drink and surprised us with a shot of slivovitz. Let’s just say it got the rest of the evening nicely “oiled up”. All in all, an absolute recommendation!"
