"It's just THE classic: drive out to the country to go good food. In our case, in the restaurant Espenhof in Rheinhessen, part of a winery, also with accommodations. Reservation recommended, parking behind the house. Already the wine garden (the beer garden of a winery in the courtyard of the restaurant looks so daunting that you want it to be immediately summer to sit outside. But the cosy-modern interior also invites you to stay. The wooden tables are covered with pair runners and small flower ornaments, the service in the evening is partly shy-retaining, partly too little present, but always absolutely impeccable in handling the guest. The card fits on an A4 page and is therefore also called food leaf. Three appetizers, two intercourses (which can also be upgraded to the main course at an additional cost), five main dishes (calbsbäckchen, pork ridges, ridges, rumpsteak, cod); Prices from 16 to 26€ and three desserts. Three courses may average 40 euros. A five-course menu of 55€ was also offered. First of all, we were given an amuse coat. Nice fresh bread, even different varieties, and three kinds: Greek olive oil (not necessarily my favourite, fresh herbal cucumber and really delicious thyme salt. A beautiful and matching match! Then I chose Duo from the parsley root as an appetizer. Unfortunately this came very shortly after greeting from the kitchen. What was previously described was confirmed here: on fine appearance of the foods is added value. The preliminary soup came in a transparent glass: at the bottom a bright layer, over it a green foam, decorated with parsley. Just as fine in taste. Soft yet aromatic. My main course was pink roasted fried ridges with grießstrudeltaler, currants and beech mushrooms at €26. It's really nice, it's hard. Delicious meat, tastefully good, complementing combination with mushrooms and berries. I didn't even miss a dessert. Because also of the crowd the portions were appropriate for a dinner. Praise also by my wife for freshness, preparation, optics and taste of her food, the arable salad with croutons and the pork back with herbal crust! I felt good at it, it was all fun, was fresh and tasty, but the decisive spark did not want to skip to me in this certainly above-average place."

"in general I like to order here and mostly everything is good. Unfortunately, the nuds, in particular the bolognese soße, have been very watered down the last two paintings. it lacks the tomat taste that was clearly better."
