We will be back

Booked for eight and seated at eight. The portions were generous and the bill was what the menu said. Gisela came out of the kitchen at the end to ask how it was.

Ordered: T-bone steak with pepper sauce

The dining room was full and the service did not slow down. The waiter knew the menu without looking.

Exactly right

Worth every marka. We ordered a second dessert to share and were not charged for the coffee.

Sound cooking, fair prices

Good cooking and a fair bill. The room was loud by nine, which is our only complaint.

Ordered: Beef burger with mountain cheese
