We had reserved a table for Good Friday at 11.30am. At 11:25 there was almost no parking left and there was a huge queue inside. Nobody could wait to get their turn. People pushed their way forward - despite reservations - I haven't experienced anything like that in a long time. When we arrived at the table we were served fairly quickly. However, the drinks took a long time to arrive. There were three of us, when I order a light beer and a bottle of water I actually expect two water glasses, one was brought. The quality of the food was great, it tasted really good! As far as the prices are concerned, we were a bit confused. A side salad that was ordered was not served, but was on the bill. For our son we ordered a portion of mashed potatoes with some sauce. The small bowl of puree then cost €7, the sauce (which was portioned way too much) an additional €2.50. Maybe it was just an “unfavorable” day to get to know this well-rated restaurant…

We are not often in the area, but we always look forward to a visit - the service is very friendly and quick, the food always tastes excellent and is very varied (special months with special cuisine), and the food is always very well prepared (after all, the eye eats with us). So if you're looking for successful Franconian cuisine that also offers various specialties, you're in the right place here! We look forward to seeing you again :)
