"Eckkneipe mit Kultstatus, für gute Küche bekannt! Der Service war super nett, kam oft an den Tisch zum Nachfragen, man fühlte sich gut aufgehoben und geschätzt! Mein Weizen war gut gekühlt und mein Primitivo gut eingeschenkt. Das Essen kam flott an den Tisch, das Rumpsteak war der Hammer, toll gebraten, mit Fritten und einem sehr leckeren Salat, dazu hatten wir noch gebratene Pilze bestellt! Rundum zu empfehlen! Freue mich schon auf den Schnitzeltag - immer Montags ! Top 5 Sterne"

"I was recommended this restaurant by the Hotel Lorien that I was staying in for 2 nights before retuning to the UK. The starter a paprika soup with bread crumb coated mushroom was a delight. The salad was well balanced and just the right amount of dressing to refresh the palate. The main course, I chose was the 0.25 kg rump steak with pepper sauce and french fries. It was an absolute delight and the best steak I have had in years."

"Das ist ein Restaurant wie es ein Veedel wie Holweide braucht!! Das Essen ist wirklich super zu absolut fairen Preisen. Bei einem kleinen aber längeren Blick in die Küche (von der Bar aus möglich) sieht man das wirklich alles frisch gemacht wird. Egal ob es das Sellerieschnitzel war oder das Pfifferling-Rahm-Geschnetzelte. Alle Schnitzel werden ebenfalls frisch paniert. Das Personal ist sehr nett und kümmert sich gut um die Gäste. Ich kann das Bistrorant sehr empfehlen und hoffe, dass es noch einige Jahre bleibt."
