Despite our initial plan to stay at a local restaurant at the centre of the village, we found it fully booked for the evening and had to change plans, which in the end turned into a fabulous experience at this family business. The service was friendly and attentive. The food was very good, exquisitely prepared and of generous portions. Finally, the Riesling was very tasteful. We ended up with a visit to the cellar and buying more Riesling to take with us. Looking forward to the next visit.

We arrived at 6pm, after a few hours walking trough the surrounding landscapes, and got the last table... Next time I will make a reservation, just to be sure I can enjoy again the warm atmosphere of this place. Excellent food: we asked for gluten-free vegetarian and could chose from the menu. All staff spoke excellent English, plus the menu was in English as well. We received soup and 2 other delicious courses. They inspired me for my own cooking at home. The staff was very friendly, also welcoming young kids. There is a playroom on the side, which made for stress-free dining for both parents and other guests. Prices are very doable. Dresscode is casual: we were in our hikingclothes but had switched to normal shoes. Highlights besides the food, is definitively the ballroom, do not forget to have a look and admire the ceilings... Another highlight not to be missed: there is an excellent wine-cellar open for public. You can taste and buy what you like. Bottles start at 5.40 and are excellent qua price/quality. Besides the wine, in the shop there is a choice of jams and honeys that are also worth taking home!

The chef is masterfully trained and delivers unbelievably fresh, tasty and authentic German food. They have their own farm and many of the dishes are 100% home grown via their own produce and livestock. The prices are extremely reasonable and the service impeccable yet still friendly. Since the village is a trek up a large hill from the Rhine, I would recommend driving or grabbing a taxi. We've eaten at many fancy and Michelin rated restaurants, but there is something about having an excellent meal without pretentiousness and at an extremely reasonable price. Go visit and try it--you'll want to return!

This family-run restaurant has delicious food. We ate on the outdoor patio- a perfect place to while away a summer evening. For non-drinkers, they had a house-made grape juice (from the grapes of their vineyard) that was to die for.
