"Wir sind ohne Reservierung direkt zum Küchenstart gekommen und haben gerade noch einen Platz bekommen – eine Reservierung ist hier definitiv zu empfehlen. Kurz darauf wurde es sehr schnell voll. Die Servicekräfte waren freundlich und aufmerksam. Das Essen war gut, aber nichts Außergewöhnliches, ebenso das Ambiente – solider Durchschnitt. Bei voller Auslastung wird es spürbar laut."

"Sehr gutes Essen und sehr guter Service. Wir können das Lokal uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Krabbensuppe war sehr lecker und bis zum letzten Löffel heiß. Die Scholle ein Gedicht. Grünkohl mit Fleisch war ebenfalls köstlich."

"Waren zu Viert dort essen. Gut das wir reserviert hatten - der Laden war voll! Wir haben im Barbereich der Hopfenlaube gesessen - sehr laut und recht beengt - das ist der einzige Minuspunkt! Denn der Service war fix und freundlich. Das Essen hat uns allen sehr gut geschmeckt - egal ob Fleisch oder Fisch!"
