Restaurant Muskat — Restaurant in Erlangen

My fiance and I were roaming around Erlangen on our way to the Bergkirchweih fest looking for a late lunch. Most of the town was closed up. I had always told my fiance how I had found some of the best places to eat in Germany by lookng for out of the way places down alleys, sidestreets and off the beaten path. The Muskat exceeded our expectations. The staff was very friendly and quick to help us with those items we had trouble understanding with our limited knowledge of the German language. The food was was great. The ambiance was fabulous. I was stationed in Erlangen while in the US Army many years ago and have been back several times since. This is the overall best restaurant I have eaten in while in Erlangen. Although the restauant sits at the back of a courtyard it is open, airy and well lit. On this trip it was the only restaurant that we ate at twice and if I return next year I'll be there again too. Thank you to the entire staff for two...

There's not many dishes are they're composed by season but still lots of vegetarian options. Service was very friendly but not intrusive at the same time. Outdoor seating on the patio surrounded by herbal plants was very relaxing, although plants decoration could use a little more love to detail as most just look like store-bought pots from the hardware store just put there. We passed on the deserts for 12€ per dish due to the price but can't wait to visit again and try some of them &...

External area nice. Good service. Good wine. Terrible pasta: different types of pasta (see pics) boiled and cooked all together, hence the average was overcooked and already smashed. I wasn't able neither to pick them with the fork, I had to use the fork like a spoon. Furthermore the dished arrived "in a swimming pool of sauce" (see pics(. It was more like a soup. I have never eaten such a bad pasta. The Chef should go back to school (if ever attended a cooking lesson) and I should get my money back. Price extremely crazy expensive....
