"Visited this restaurant twice in two days.
Lovely food. Good value, too.
Friendly service from the very hardworking smiley lady.
Sitting alfresco in what feels like the beating heart of Wurzberg.
I'm definitely coming here again the next time we visit this lovely city"
Peter Esposito
"Delicious. Had the Spargle special. Nice atmosphere and decent prices. Hotel recommended this place and we were impressed"
Ben Williams
"Came here for a private party (we were not the ones with the reservation, just guests, so I don't know how much everything costs). It was admittedly a large group, but the amount of time between meal courses was a little long, and by the time we were waiting for dessert to show up, all of the younger kids were getting super restless and we were ready to just leave. The food was decent, but nothing to write home about. It was also difficult to get the waiters attention. Not sure why the service was so slow, because the rest of the restaurant was completely empty. The room we were in had some pretty stained glass, but the acoustics were not great for how many people we had."
