I’m posting the review now but we were visiting Rothenburg in August. I’ve read this is among the best restaurants in Rothenburg and a lot of people recommend it and even if it was that good in the time of writing I can’t say that is the case now. We reserved a dinner for two a day before leaving as we wanted to save the best for last. We were greeted by the owner and were seated at our table. The inside of the place is very narrow and cramped. The ceiling is lower so someone taller should watch not to bump their head on things. The overall feel is like walking into a medieval pub. There is an older couple that serve every table that I guess are the owners of the place. They were kind but I think we had a lot of issues with communication. We ordered a platter of cold cuts and variety of cheese. I liked some cold cuts but the rest was ordinary. After finishing the starters we waited for our main course. Firstly, we waited for the main course for 20-30 min and after it arrived we only got one plate of food. The lady came and asked if we need two plates to share. We told her that we ordered a second dish, but she told us back that thats the only thing that was ordered. I tried to talk to her what I ordered before and order it again but she got really snappy telling me another thing. After a few tries I gave up and got a pork knuckle with dumplings- and it was not what I ordered. I switched plates with my husband so I could eat something. I don’t appreciate that the lady came every 10min to ask if everything was ok, i think that the mixup of the order got us all anxious and this was making it even worse. We finished our food and payed straight away just to get out. If I don’t pay any mind to the experience we had I would still give the food a solid 3 because the price of 110 + eur was far too much for food that tasted as regular pub food. The cold cuts were the only thing Ive enjoyed. And we ordered soup,cold cuts,selections of cheese, breaded pork with chanterelles, and the pork knuckle we got and a salad. Drinks too.

So maybe it’s a cool place to sit and have a beer but it’s very expensive for such ordinary food. All in all it was an underwhelming experience and I felt a bit disappointed afterwards. Forgot to mention you pay with cash here.
