"Urige kleine Gaststätte in der man sich teilweise in die DDR Zeit zurück versetzt fühlt. Es ist sauber und ordentlich. Man wird immer herzlich empfangen, die Portionen sind groß und lecker und das zu einem guten Preis. Reservierung ist empfehlenswert, da die Gaststube nicht sehr groß ist."

"Authentisches Gasthaus mit guter Küche und ebenso authentischem Service und moderaten Preisen. Der Riesenrollmops ist ein Traum in Fisch. Es gibt nicht nur Fisch."

"Da wir von außerhalb kommen und auf dem Weg nach Waldenburg waren, hatten wir mal die kleine, gemütliche Gaststätte entdeckt. Es gibt eine kleine, aber feine Speisekarte und saisonal auch ändernd. Es schmeckt sehr lecker, die Portionen sind reichlich, richtig schöne Hausmannskost. Ein großes Lob an den Koch. Natürlich möchten wir auch nicht die Servicekräfte vergessen, immer freundlich, nett, für jeden Spaß zu haben. Wir kehren immer wieder gern hier ein, wenn wir in Richtung Waldenburg unterwegs sind. Bleibt so wie ihr seit und wir freuen uns auf das nächste Mal."

"Klasse Lokal, Bedienung super nett und das essen unvergleichlich gut! Leider war der rollmops schon aus als wir dort waren... dann eben den Brathering mit Bratkartoffeln! Er hat mindestens genau so gut geschmeckt wie er ausgesehen hat - wenn nicht sogar noch besser! Der Fisch war super lecker! Lob an den Koch!! Und selbst die Bratkartoffeln (ich mag Bratkartoffeln eigentlich nicht) haben mir so gut geschmeckt dass wir am nächsten Tag direkt wieder gekommen sind! Die Gaststätte ist absolut zu empfehlen! Werden nächstes Jahr auch sicher wieder vorbeikommen und dann wird hoffentlich der Rollmops probiert! ;)"

"Kann man gut draußen sitzen. Speisekarte etwas klein aber man findet sicherlich etwas. Schade das kein Winter war weil nur da gibt's Ente. Preislich fürs das Angebot etwas teuer. Aber wir leben ja in der Inflation."
