Reviews Summary

"Food was tasty and the portions are really generous! I ordered a Helles beer, and it was really tasty. Definitely will come back when in Koblenz. Service very helpful and funny."

"Very good service and super friendly staffs. Outdoor seating is nice and chill with river view. But unfortunately we are not very happy with our food. We ordered two schnitzel, both are very greasy that you can still see a thick layer of oil floating on the meat, in general I don’t like it and not even say under 37degree weather. The mushroom sauce has zero taste apart from salty and the pepper sauce is very average. The starter and the Wurst Salat are alright."
Chris Zhu
"The food here is great. Had the goulash and the potatoes soup along with the wurscth (kind of a gourmet curry wurst). My wife had the pork neck as they were out of the swinehax which we were hoping for. While to food was great we were surprise that with a reservation they had not saved us a table and asked us to join a community table. Nothing against sharing the space but thins was a special dinner for my wife and I. The staff seemed surprised that we expected our own little two seat table. Over all good great service… not horrible but has room for improvement."
