Accompanied by a great Riesling, and Prinz Old Prune. Just AMAZING!!!

But service is way too slow, especially when with children. The main course took 30min to arrive with the kids' plates served the last (and it was just a bratwurst with rösti). But worse, the ice cream for the kids took 30min to get delivered... Parking is very reduced by the castle, so best is to park by the city entrance and walk across the old town.

It’s about a 30 minute drive east of Kaiserslautern along the A6, on the fringes of the weinstrasse. The restaurant is part of a medieval castle, set into it’s ruins. Parking can be difficult along the narrow alleys, but the short walk is well worth it. There was an event going on outside, where they had a bar set up and event staff getting ready. You walk into the restaurant into a huge cellar with a curved roof. There are many sections in the dining room, with custom sized tables and booths, mostly hewn from thick hardwoods. The main hall is dimly lit, but accented by a huge fireplace lending to the charm. The female waitstaff wear traditional long dresses and white frilly shirts. The menus are translated into English and they seem to specialize in meat dishes, with plenty to select from: pork loin, duck, T bone steaks, rumpsteak, veal, sausages, liver, etc. They also had a nice variety of soups and cheese platters. We settled on the baked sheep’s cheese (very good) and the beef tournedos (what seemed to be two beef filets very tender and well cooked) that came with a side of zucchini and mushrooms and some delicious rosti (hash browns). We also had the veal steaks, which were quite thick and not as tender as they could have been. Saving room for dessert, there were nearly a dozen items to choose from each looked tasty. We decided on the apricot dumplings and the ice cream in raspberry sauces. The dumplings contained half an apricot inside a dough, served over clarified butter. Different tasty. We also tried the hazelnut ice cream and cherries. All great flavors. One of the surprises of the night was the Dornfelder Liquor, which was asked for specifically and it was terrific! A sweet, leggy drink, very similar to a porto. Overall, an excellent meal (we spent about 100Eu and had a couple glasses of wine) and a unique dining experience. We’ll be back and we’ll bring some out of town guests to share another nice time.

Instead, we would not be observed and how air is treated. we have eaten about 8 to 10m on a not covered table. Even in the case of 3 times demand, we were not offered for 8 people, although this would have been possible and even 2 tables were free! (but none of them is ready for 8 people. the most amazing: one of the 2 service forces, treated me like air. When I finally complained to the second, they tried to control them and explained that the exposed tables would not be served and they would also be only two in the service and two in the kitchen, they wouldn't do that. incomprehensible, as at most other tabs only 2 people were sitting and at the 2 free tables together 14 places. the demand were both tables, not only a table reserved, etc. the strange reasons. so friendly a strange word. the second service was nice and said we should have asked her (because she obviously doesn't think much about her colleague. we then went to the next place where we were not treated as a second human choice.

Instead, we would not be respected and treated like air. We sat about 8 to 10m away at a table not covered. Even in 3 times demand, we were not offered space for 8 people, although this would have been possible. And even 2 tables were free!! (But none of them are ready for 8 people. The greatest thing: one of the 2 service personnel, treated me like air. When I finally complained about the second, they tried to steer them and explained that the tables that were not covered would not be served and they would also be only two in the service and two in the kitchen, they would not make it.... Incomprehensible, as at most other tables only 2 people were sitting and at the 2 free tables together 14 seats. Suddenly both tables were on demand, not just a table reserved etc.... the odd reasons.... So kindness was a foreign word.

I can only say they have a really stressful evening. I can hardly imagine, however, that they really wait for 1 hour to be eaten, and there is not the talk with the chefin looking, but waiting for the bill. each yet so good restaurant often has a few lazy service eggs, but therefore the complete concept, eat and evaluate the restaurant management negatiw I cannot understand. Moreover, their assessment is not very useful for others, as they do not mention a word about quality or plv., should a real restaurant criticism look different.

After 1 hour we then asked the service about the missing main courses that were not prepared yet, what we demanded the bill. when we wanted to leave the natives, we wanted to complain to the resaurant line what we did, even though they turned off as an iteressier they did not. the bill was then for 2 apperetief 1 bottle wein and 2 reordered wei that we wanted to drink on the main course 1 bottle water and 2 metzelsuppen 51 €
