Came by right at opening on a Friday and it got packed fast. Good to book ahead if you&#39;re coming later.

Been coming here for years. The salmon sashimi is always fresh. The mixed platter is good, you get a bit of everything including those charcoal-grilled skewers. A solid spot, especially if you&#39;re near the station.

Stopped by for lunch on a weekday. Schnitzel was solid, properly breaded and not greasy. Portion size fair for the price. Service efficient without hovering. Terrace was calm, no traffic noise. Renovation looks fresh, tables spaced well. Good spot if you&#39;re in the area and want reliable German food. Would come back when nearby.

The truffle pasta was the standout &mdash; rich but not too heavy. Service was a bit slow, but the vibe made up for it.

Came here with a group of 12 and honestly impressed how smooth it went. Every single dish arrived hot and basically at the same time, which never happens with big tables. Food was well-prepared, nothing fancy but solid. Service felt genuine, not forced. Would come back for sure.

The hot chocolate was made with real dark chocolate, you could taste the quality. The barista prepared it so patiently, it felt like a little moment of calm. The place itself is very cozy, perfect for a quiet afternoon.

The pizza was solid, proper Italian style with a crispy crust. Gluten-free options actually taste good here, not just an afterthought.

Decent spot for a quick ice cream stop. 1 EUR per scoop is pretty fair for the area, and they have a good range of flavours plus milkshakes. I tried the pistachio, it was fine. Not mind-blowing, but solid enough. Service was quick too. Wouldn&#39;t go out of my way, but happy enough to pop in again.

The all-you-can-eat option is a solid deal for this area. Food was tasty and the place felt cozy, though the regular menu portions run a bit small.

Came here again for the Saturday buffet. Still got a solid spread&mdash;sushi, some warm dishes, salad bar. Nothing fancy but it hits the spot. Price is fair for what you get. Place gets busy around 1, so go a bit earlier if you can. Consistent, which is why I keep coming back.

The Black Forest cake here is really something else. Probably one of the best I&rsquo;ve had, no joke. Owner even showed us how to carry it without messing it up, which was handy since I was worried about the drive back. Cake stayed intact, tasted even better the next day. Just wish the slices were a bit bigger for the price.

Been coming here for years. The team is always friendly and professional, they remember my usual order. Service is discreet, never rushed. That&rsquo;s what keeps me coming back.

Loved the interior, it&#39;s so cozy and well-designed. The coffee and cookie were nice, but honestly, I just wanted to stay and read a book in that corner by the window.

The inside is pretty standard, and yeah, the restrooms could use an update. But everything is spotlessly clean, which is what really matters to me. It makes the whole place feel comfortable and relaxed.

The royal couscous was delicious, and their wine list had some really interesting local options that paired well with it.

The mussels and fries deal is a solid choice. Their house white wine paired really well with the mussels.

A solid spot. The portions were generous, and the food was pretty good. The place is very clean, which I appreciated. Staff were pleasant. A decent meal overall.

The risotto was spot on again&mdash;creamy, properly al dente, just like last time. I&rsquo;ve been here a few times now and that dish never misses. Wine list is solid too, something for everyone. It&rsquo;s tucked away on that little old-town square, which makes it easy to find a table even on busy evenings. Service stayed friendly without hovering. Only thing: it gets a bit loud when full, but I keep coming back anyway.

The river view is nice but honestly I only care about what&rsquo;s on the plate. Had the grilled perch fillet&mdash;skin crisp, flesh flaky, butter sauce actually tasted of lemon instead of just being greasy. Portion was decent for the price. Would&rsquo;ve liked more salt on the veggies though. That&rsquo;s it.

Great spot for a quick bite. Had the orange pie, really good. They even threw in a small treat at the end. Service was fast, got me back to work in no time.

Came here on a busy Friday night and honestly, the portion sizes are what got me. Ordered the mixed grill and it was plenty for two, maybe even three. Price felt fair for what you get, especially compared to other spots around. Service was a bit slow because it was packed, but the food made up for it.

The pizza here is fantastic&mdash;thin, airy crust and generous toppings. It&#39;s a busy spot, so expect a lively atmosphere, but the quality makes it worth it.

The truffle steak tartare was really good&mdash;properly seasoned, not too heavy. Tiramisu was a solid way to end the meal too. Staff checked in just enough without hovering. Menu&rsquo;s got plenty to pick from, so it&rsquo;s easy to please everyone in a group. A friend put me onto this place, and I&rsquo;d pass it along for sure. 😊
