"We visited the “Alt Schmidd” after a walk through Blieskastel’s Old Town. The restaurant is located in a very beautiful historical building, the former forge. The decor has already come a little into the years and the walls could put a new paint. I guess this hasn't changed much in the last 20 years. Nevertheless, you feel comfortable in the original ambience. Service The greeting was very friendly and the two young waiters during our stay at Alt Schmidd were unobtrusively attentive and fluttering on the way. Food With happy hour and daily specials such as Monday “Schnitzel L bis XXL” or Wednesday “Spaghetti All You Can Eat” for 5 € is to be addressed rather younger audience. The fast-paced folding menu, reminiscent of a fast-paced restaurant, offers a great selection of soups, baguettes, pasta, flame-cake, salad and meat dishes. We chose the Alt-Schmidd Chefsalat at €10.50 and the Alt-Schmidd Grillteller at €17.50. The chief salad, ordered with vinegar oil dressing, consisted of leaf and raw food salads with turkey strips and mushrooms. The meat was not entirely fried as “small” as announced in the map, some pieces of meat were also strongly cartilaged. The salad leaves were too large as with the side salad to the grill plate and had to be divided several times with the knife. The vinegar oil dressing tasted a little too fad like the cream dressing of the side salad. Here you can taste “more graceful” by E. The raw food salads, carrots and radish were fine, as were the fresh mushrooms. The grill plate consisted of 3 steaks of beef, turkey and pig with herbal butter, with grilled tomatoes, roasted onions, pommes and side salad. The grilltomates baked with bacon and cheese tasted excellently, there is nothing to migrate even on the pommes and roast onions. Only the quality and preparation of the steaks could not convince. The turkey steak was still quite neat, but the beef steak grows on the edge and, probably, not long hanging and roasted too long, not very tender. The pig steak falls through. Too thin and too long fried it was clearly too hard and dry. There's still air up here. Beverages: absolutely try Blieskasteler Klosterbräu Conclusion: rustic ambience, restaurant with “specials” more adapted to young audiences, kitchen serves lush portions, the ingredients are fresh, but in preparation air is up"
