Since then, she accepted it and did not apologize. I had eaten here a few years ago and it was really good. rather sad to see a decline of service standards. especially on an evening with a half empty restaurant.

Eating here was very good, a good mix of traditional German dressed and modern Americanized dressed. good choice of wine and beer. the service was somewhat slow... read more Eating here was very good, a good mix of traditional German dressed and modern Americanized dressed. good choice of wine and beer. the service was somewhat slow, but otherwise very good.

I have eaten there two or three times a day. it is a midday buffet with an average but definitiw very acceptable selection. there is a bright and airy winter garden in which they can also eat and - if the sun seems - tables in the open directly at the river bank. a good day, the fascinated is now really brilliant! I have only given an average score because I have seen better buffets, but don't let them be deterred from my rating, because it's really worth visiting.

Only stopped for coffee, but the waiter was very friendly, the decor cozy and a beautiful view of the harbour. the coffee selection is excellent. read more Only stopped for coffee, but the waiter was very friendly, the decor cozy and a beautiful view of the harbour. the coffee selection is excellent.
