Geberts Weinstuben — Restaurant in Mainz

Came here for a birthday dinner. First off we got welcomed by the staff glaring at our dog. Got seated at a table where not even 3mins after we were asked what we want and pushed into getting multiple courses and wine. We declined and just ordered the main meals and i got the soup too. The soup was actually really good and i do recommend it. The main dish on the other hand....yeah really bad. The meat barely had any flavour, was very veiny and bled all over the plate,the taste of blood still lingers in our mouths. The cabbage was bland just like the rest of the plate honestly. When we were asked if we liked it we told them how no, we didn't, of course we got greeted by glares and no apology or word of a compensation which is usually custom to do. We paid a decent amount of money for a meal that wasn't worth half as much. Other things to point out: Our dog wasn't allowed to drink in the restaurant, we got told there's a water bowl in the courtyard. How shameless From the looks of it the young waitresses don't get any tips, the older ladies are always the ones who handle the bill which is also shameless, never seen before

Conclusion. Not worth it. The soup was good but...

One of my favorite restaurants in Mainz. Entrees are tasty and the service is good, but dessert is the true highlight. The crème brûlée is fantastic... nothing fancy, but executed perfectly. The best crème brûlée I've ever had. They pair it with fruit and ice cream or sorbet which makes the dessert a good value for the price.

The menu changes regularly, but some past highlights include beef pot pie (with the crunchiest crust you've ever heard) and pumpkin soup.

If you're American, stay away from the apple red cabbage, as it tastes disconcertingly like apple pie. Not bad, but too weird for me to...

Traditional and elegant decor. Service is paced but very good and amicable in a classic German way. Can find traditional and seasonal dishes. Run by a matron who likes to ask if you’re enjoying the experience. She doesn’t speak English but there’s Google translate nowadays. Coming from LA i thought the price was great for the quality and experience but then anything comparable in LA would’ve cost me 2-3x after...
