Gasthaus Hotel zum Hirschen

We have dined here in October.The ambiance was good as it was pretty busy but unfortunately the evening was destroyed because of the lack of attention from the waitress! She's forgotten to bring the ketchup for my daughter so I had to go to the bar to get it myself!!!Then we had to wait 20mins for my husband's lager! So we were constantly waiting or trying to make contact with the waitress!! I had swiss style chicken or pork (can't remember now) whatever it was a piece of overcooked meat with tomatoes and a bit of cheese over, not very tasty at all.However my husband enjoyed his Ox tongue! When I said to the waitress that we had to wait so long for everything she DIDN'T apologise, only said I AM NOT THE boss, it's not my fault!! I am sorry this for me is bad service, she should have let her manager know that they can not cope with so many people! NOT good for us!

This restaurant is just how you imagine a German restaurant should be- very traditional and homely. The food is excellent- I can thoroughly recommend the Hirschragout mit Preiselbeeren und Spätzle (venison ragout with cranberries and a flat German noodle. Definitely worth a visit.

Der Hirschen in Staufen ist eigentlich ein badischer Gasthof wie er sein sollte. Bodenständige, gute Küche in einer dazu passenden Atmosphäre. So weit so gut, wenn da nicht der Service wäre, den wir als verbesserungsfähig erlebt haben. Das Gasthaus war allemal halbvoll, trotzdem war die Bedienung zwar freundlich, aber träge und ineffizient. Zweimal mussten wir an Nachbestellungen wiederholt erinnern, am Ende haben wir über eine halbe Stunde auf die Rechnung warten müssen, deren Bezahlung mit ec-Karte dann zwar möglich, aber kompliziert war und nur unwillig akzeptiert wurde. Schade eigentlich!

Der "Heisse Hirsch" ist ein Glühwein deren Wein aus eigenem Anbau stammt und vom Koch persönlich hergestellt wird, unbedingt empfehlenswert und die "Saure Leber" ist vorzüglich. Das Ambiente urig rustikal, das Personal zuvorkommend und nett.

Sono riuscito a prenotare nella stanza 5 del terzo piano, la famosa stanza ove la leggenda vuole che ci sia stato lo scontro tra Faust ed il diavolo. La stanza è molto antica ma accogliente e suggestiva col volto di Faust intagliato nel letto del legno che sembra guardarti.Per il resto, soggiornare nella locanda è stato molto bello, è rustica e tipica e soprattutto si mangia molto bene, anche se i prezzi un po' alti. Vale però tornarci per la particolarità del locale.
