“This place has a really nice, romantic, ambiance. It is such a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Everything we ate was very good. The venison steak was specifically excellent!”

“Pleasant staff. Samantha and Ruby played along with our antics and gave us gold stars! Casual and refined atmosphere. Amazing food. I loved my Venison and Black Forrest Cake. Sat out on the lovely outdoor patio after the meal.”

“Spectacular!! The food was incredible!! Highly recommend the rouladen!! The service was impeccable including wine pairing suggestions and a very home-like feeling!! The atmosphere was perfect including the background music and the black and white movies playing on TV.”

“Food was phenomenal! The service impeccable I highly recommend this restaurant. We had the tuna tartare and smoked spinach salad to start. They were both so good. I can’t pick which one I liked better. For dinner I had the veal schnitzel with fries. It was to die for. I’m not a big seafood person, but my partner had the seafood risotto with shrimp, scallops, octopus and smoked farm egg. He absolutely loved it. I tried a bite of his risotto and it was so tasty.”

“I partook a four-course menu with a date on Valentine’s Day. The overall experience left both of us more to be desired, especially for the price that I paid. We went in a bit early and were seated a bit after 3:40PM. The restaurant was almost empty at the time. After the second course (pasta), we asked for bread to mop up the sauce because the flavor was pretty good but the serving size was small. The bread service took more than 10 minutes to come to our table, but the bread was only a bit lukewarm and came with hard butter, not softened or seasoned, so I was a bit perplexed why it took that long. (Also the bread service was not included and cost $12 extra for 4 half slices of bread and two soft pretzel sticks. Make that what you will.) After the bread service, and the pasta plates were removed, we waited for more than 30 minutes for the venison to be served. The venison felt barely lukewarm, while the potato gratin was hot as expected, making me suspect something wrong happened to the kitchen. My date was not impressed by the venison, either, commenting on the lack of flavor without the blueberry gastrique sauce. The dessert was not impressive, either. I didn’t like the dollop of the whipped cream as it contributed no flavor to the cake, and that the ice cream was more of a sorbet with large ice crystals and sloppy consistency. Finally, we finished the 4 courses after exactly 2 hours, after paying $98 per person (as priced, excluding everything else like beverage and a la carte). My date didn’t find the meal worthwhile for the price and felt sorry for me. Ugh.”
