Da Mai (Chinesische Küche)
Chinese restaurant
👍👍 Delicious. Finding vegan dumplings made from organic spelled flour was the first surprise. Next was the salad. It was fresh, diverse in the best sense of the word and came with a blackberry-lavender (!) dressing. The vegan dumplings were filled with spinach and mushrooms. Absolutely delicious. Don'...

Cafe
👍👍 At first we wanted to go next door - luckily not! Cozy, very, very friendly (we were given typical Iranian desserts as a surprise when we asked if there was anything like that here after we couldn't find anything like that on the menu) and the coffee was very tasty. Great, calm atmosphere. The cakes...

Salera Tapas y mas
Spanish restaurant
👍👍 Our favorite restaurant for several years. This is of course partly due to the excellent food. Tapas here means larger than normal tapas and smaller than a main course. Constantly changing map. A very good house wine. And you can also feel very comfortable because the team around Trixi and Yannik is...

Restaurant La Verde
Restaurant
👍👍 Pleasant surprise! Surprisingly good for a hotel restaurant! Starter and main course freshly and deliciously prepared. Homemade salad dressing. High quality olive oil. Good service. I would almost like to say that the hotel restaurant alone would justify booking the rather average hotel again for me...

Lamia Restaurant
Restaurant
👍 Tolles Restaurant mit super Essen und viel frischem Fisch, der auch vorher gezeigt wird. Die Preise sind zwar höher aber fair für die Qualität. Der Service trifft die Qualität der Küche nicht komplett was aber wahrscheinlich an der Anzahl der Personen liegt. Freundlich und professionell sind alle.

👍👍 Ich bin durch Zufall auf dieses Café gestoßen und habe entdeckt, dass es nicht nur die Standard-Eissorten wie jede beliebige Eisdiele hat, sondern wirklich neue Ideen in einer super Qualität. Ich hab mich in 2 Tagen durch alle Sorten durchprobiert. Am besten hat mir Peanutbutter-Jelly geschmeckt. Hi...
