Frommer's Review
This elegant restaurant houses pictures from the Kunsthalle (art gallery) on its walls to complement the chandeliers, handsome rugs, stone arches leading into the bar, and murals on the walls. In the main dining room, cold specialties are served buffet style, and white-jacketed waiters will take your orders for hot courses. You can order a salad of arugula with mushrooms and cheese, followed by a double entrecôte with risotto or grilled sea bass served with potatoes. You can also eat supper in the bar from the same a la carte menu offered in the main restaurant. Though hardly the best cuisine in Basel, the food is consistently reliable, and diners usually leave satisfied.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
