"Spontan entschlossen zu einem Mittagessen mit 5 Personen und der Entschluss war gut. Sehr freundlicher Empfang, schmackhaftes Essen und selbst kleine Extrawünsche wurden direkt erfüllt. Man konnte hören, wie die Schnitzel geklopft wurden. Keine fertig panierten Gefrierschnitzel aus der Fritteuse, wie wir woanders bereits erleben mussten. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder."

"5 Sterne verdient!! Wir waren ohne Reservierung dort, wurden sehr nett empfangen und haben einen Tisch bekommen. Das Essen ist reichhaltig und vor allem schmeckt es sehr gut! Lecker hausgemachte Hausmannskost, sehr gutes Preis-/ Leistungsverhältnis! Wo hört man heute noch kurz nach der Bestellung, dass das Schnitzel frisch geklopft wird...? Fazit: Freundlich, zuvorkommend, lecker Essen, wir kommen gerne wieder!"
