Zur Tant

Fine dining restaurant

👍👍 Fine cuisine, finely tuned and seasoned, not crazy. The focus is on first-class basic ingredients. Great unobtrusive service, beautiful Rhine panorama.

Atelier - Fine Drinks & Aperitivo

Cocktail bar

😠 Make sure you check the bill price. I went there for dinner with a group of friends and I was charged 2 times extra and one of my friend 1 time extra.

HARDY KUGEL

French restaurant

😠 Greeted warmly but the experience went downhill onwards. Order was placed to an unfriendly & seemingly annoyed person that is short in communication skills.

Capricorn (i) Aries Brasserie

French restaurant

👍👍 That was a delicious Saturday evening with 3x3 combination. 3 course surprise for three people. I saved 10 euros per person because we were served better dishes. The wine from Bordeaux between two seas was a delicious drop. I want to go there again ... 😊

Epicerie Boucherie

Bistro

😐 That's the way France is. It's a pleasure to just drop in and have a few snacks. The very small bistro offers fine sausages and cheeses as well as typical things like baguettes, croissants, quiches. All baked goods are of very good quality. Also served are changing small dishes. A nice coupe delici...

Wackes
