A beautiful setting at the out skirts of the village among the vines. Great selection of local wines. The food is traditional regional style food ranging from cheese...and cold cuts platters with very nice local breads to dishes like sausages with choucroute, wiener schnitzel or local fish. And do try the desserts. Friendly staff, credit cards accepted. Reservations required.

Sitting outdoors is a must (at least for me) during these COVID days, and the restaurant provided plentiful options in this regard. The views are wonderful, rows of vineyards leading to...the Danube in a relaxing setting. The staff is friendly and speak English; menus in English upon request.
