Good food, slow service

Solid, honest food. The wine by the glass was better than we expected.

Faultless from start to finish

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

Ordered: The miner's plate: three dumplings, pork belly, sausage and sauerkraut

Good, not great

A reliable place. The table by the window is worth asking for.

Ordered: Kessel dumplings with smoked meat and sauerkraut

A pleasant evening

The food was very good; the coffee afterwards was not.
