"the ambiente in the brewhouse stefanus corresponds to the name. The thema brewhouse is consistently also drawn through in the decoration and decor. some people may seem to be overloaded, but in a house that has been hosting since 1908, a lot of “old things” are gathering, for which some museum would be grateful. the deck is covered by hoppe garlands, brewing boilers stand in the gastronomy, the walls are decorated with signs, beer jars and beer bottles. even the three (modern pictures are matched to the beer: hopping, gerste and water. in my eyes a rustic, original and the name of the house absolutely appropriate facility, we felt very comfortable. parking is available next to the house in front of the beer garden, however, are slightly dimensioned for the size of the house so that it can be necessary for a full house to look for a place on the road. the input has three small stages, but these are to be mastered. inside then everything is flattering, even the toilets. the service has thrilled me! Already at the time we were very kindly greeted by the counter staff and asked to wait for the chef as he takes over the reservations. Shortly later he was with us, greeted us and the other guests (even with names and the service power instructed the two tables. the chef made it all “from the head” without any support, without any notices later then respecting the order! the servicedame then brought us to the reserved table, offered us the menus and frug whether there is already a drink desire. the drinks were immediately accepted and served quickly. the attention to the drinks was then also exemplary throughout the evening and was taken over exclusively by the two female service workers. we ordered for the first three wine and a water. Here, however, there is a critique point that wept neither to me nor to our companions. it has a very own taste to express it like that. I also did not drink something similar in franken, to which the brewer refers. for this the bright then very appealing and sinful, you will stay with it! The prices for the three offered beer varieties are by the way, 0.25 ltr. 2,20 € and half 4,40 €. good, is not exactly the cheapest for beer, but suitable for the offered. the somewhat long waiting period for eating is probably due to the organization, but still within the frame. the ordering and serving of the food was made by the chef himself and apparently only then placed in the kitchen in a table when a table had been served. Therefore, the tables were always served completely and at the same time, no matter how large the respective company was. so no hectic comes into the kitchen and the service. I have not seen in this perfection so yet (the local was full! . as dined were chosen by us: dahlene fitness plate (sweetened steak with crimped butter, crimson square, beilagens, baguette at 12,80 € brauhaussülze (with brauhauskartoffeln, speck and wobbles, beilagens pork the fitness plate is probably called because after that a round in the appropriate institution is said; but has tasted very well. the brewhouses, well seasoned and very abundantly filled, little gelatine. the malt master plate, butter tsartes triggered haxen meat with shiny sauce and in the extra peel served thick beans with abundant speck. the Rhenish sour roast three finger thickness discs (from the young bark not from the horse as he should be, slightly sweet sour with rusty in the sauce, two loose pale, likewise in separate peel served piecey apfelcomote and very mild and soemy apfel redwort. who reads in the menu “Brauhauskartöffelchen” and now bratkartoffeln is expected to be disappointed, behind this name hides itself in the bratpfanne warmed and thus with light browning provided kartoffels! the question put in order for smaller portions was removed with the note if they can not create everything they have a peel and take the rest, there are no smaller portions. now, the result: from our table rest went back from which you could easily have made two more portions – everything into the expensive rest disposal. the attention of the service was also given here all the time, you were asked if everything was in order, whether what would be missing, simply professional as it should be! to the conclusion were also offered and explained (they are not in the card . nothing negative can be reported also about the cleanliness. certainly, the local has already some years on the buckel and here and there could be something refurbished or renewed (toilets e.g. , but it's all clean. because we could see that the house is doing a lot is already in order, everything at once does not go into this industry. prices are actually unbeatable in consideration of the quality offered, fresh and quantity of food, accompanied by a fast, professional and friendly service, for that my high consideration."

"The food is always delicious! The kitchen goes to the wishes of the guests and no matter whether appetizer or dessert, it always enchants something delicious. In dessert, no question, love goes through the stomach!! Where you also see love is the design of the restaurant! This has changed greatly over the years and you now feel super well. At any time of the year or at any feast certain things are made. The atmosphere is great; the staff is friendly you are welcome."

"Das Ambiente in der ehemaligen Sauerkrautfabrik ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig: Dunkler Eingangsflur vorbei an den Toiletten, Installation über Putz, Laufgeräusche von der Decke, aber interessante Dekorationen. Die Karte bietet zwei Menüs: Eins eher "Gewohntes" ( Rolladen, Sauerbraten, Zander), eines "kreativer". Ich entschied mich für das zweite: Vorspeise war eine interssante Abwandlung von Vitello tonnato mit Schweinebraten und Forellencreme. Leider schmeckte die Sauce wenig nach Forellen und mehr nach Mayonnaise. Das Fleisch war aber gut rosa gebraten. Insgesamt o.k. Der Hauptgang Loup de Mer: gut gebraten auf einem leckeren Gemüse aus getrockneten Tomaten und Artischocken. Gut. Der dazu gereichte Koblauchtoast als Ersatz für Kartoffeln passte nicht. Das Dessert eine schöne Kombination von Pralinenmouse, Tartufoeis und frischer Ananas. Das Essen war gut, der Preis (39 €) aber auch gehoben und nicht durch Amuse Geule etc. gemildert. Der Preis des schmackhaften Hausweins 5.90 € für 0.2 dagegen günstig."

"we were looking for a Chinese restaurant and the asiana looked good online. we were there when the doors were opened at 17:30 o'clock, of course, sitting and waiting until the staff is ready to bring out the whole buffet. good points: very nice restaurant with...beautiful interieur. very tastefully subtle “Asian” style decoration; not the typical “trashy” Chinese witness everywhere and not silly Asian style music on a loop, but subtle quiet current music playing. very attentive service. Buffet layout very nice, as it was not only a long buffet where everyone comes into the way, but 4 seperate series of buffet elements on the display with a seperate stall for fried / boiled rice and suppe. each series has its own dishes/plates and cuttlery, which makes a very pleasant change. the employees regularly ask if everything is in order, but not in a ‘in their face’ away. empty plates on our table were dried out regularly. the warm dishes with ready boiled meals were regularly filled and the food was fresh and hot. signs on the display courteously ask, dunnn’t to “fill over” their teller, because wasted food is not a good idea. also remembers that all food contains sodium glutamat, but this could be changed to question. two seperate stalls for “live cooking” ingredients, various meats, fish and sauces as well as vegetables, all raw natural as they were cooked for them there and then. negative points: we tried almost everything in the offer and although eating was quite nice, it tasted quite “Blande” and all tasted very similar. only 3 hot sauces in the offer. Conclusion: a great restaurant that needs a bit of “white” with spices/taste, not all taste the same. if they could address this, it would be a 5* restaurant. P.S. much more attention to the detail in the ladies toilets needed, as both stand absolutely no toilet paper in them and in one of them, some diner had decided to lubricate faecies on the toilet seat. we have brought this to the attention of the personal and were extremely apologetic."

"once a year we take my German friend to eat here. it is a great place for meat lovers as most dishes on the menu center around meat. the atmosphere is great, especially if they can sit on the deck during the warmer season....You have a great beer."
