Frommer's Review

Traditional Tyrolean dishes are served along with mugs of the local brew, Weiniger, in a vaulted stone cellar tavern. The restaurant is comfortable, the food is uncomplicated but made with high quality ingredients, and the service is friendly and efficient. Kids are also welcome; if they're toddlers, high seats are provided for them. When the chef is asked about his specialties, he says, "All my dishes are special." An array of fresh fish and such classics as Wiener schnitzel are served along with an array of food that Tyroleans have been eating for years. You can drop in for a snack or a full meal. Portions such as sausages, roast pork, baked ham, and dumplings are large and will satisfy the trencherman in both women and men. The bread is often exceptionally good, including honest-to-God pretzels.

About Our System

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.
