A visit to St.Gallen is perfect with a typical St.Galler sausage or another delicious Swiss meal. We can highly recommend this restaurant with its lovely traditional old interiors and delicious dishes.

The establishment boasts an intriguing ambiance, characterized by its slightly crooked floors, and provides exceptional service. I opted for the blue potato soup accompanied by truffle foam and the venison loin. The soup was of delicious, but a bit sour when consumed separately from the truffle foam. The venison loin was succulent; melt-in-your-mouth tender and perfectly cooked. For dessert, I indulged in an affogato, but I would not recommend it due to the inappropriate coffee-to-ice cream ratio, which resulted in the ice cream melting within a few seconds.

Great place in St Gallen for local food. The athmosphere in the restaurant was unique and fantastic. The Swiss food absolute delicious with good beer available. The service was outstanding. I would always recommend this place for dinner in St Gallen. It might be booked on certain days so ensure you make a reservation in advance.
