A traditional German restaurant with changing monthly specials. March is fish month so we had two…read moreof the fish dishes for our mains. For starters we had the garlic bread and a portion of the oven-baked goats' cheese with apple and mango sauce. Both dishes didn't require any cooking skills at all but took a while to arrive. Our mains were okay. The monkfish sadly was overcooked and didn't really work with pasta and tomato sauce. The service was alright. We were served by 2 different waiters, the female waiter was attentive and friendly, her male co-worker....well, not so much. For the prices they charge, which are slightly above average, we did expect better service and better execution of the dishes. We probably wouldn't pick this place again.

My colleague and I had dinner onto day evening. The restaurant was packed. To up the experience…read more Except food and service. Our waiter spoke English and German.

This huge restaurant seems to be an institution in Halle. Decorated with all sorts of memorabilia…read moreof past days, it is a real treat for the eye. Take some time wandering around and exploring pictures and objects of the old Halle dating back to horse and carriage times. The menu is traditional German cuisine, with a special seasonal menu for the likes of Christmas, 'Spargelzeit' etc. Most dishes can be had either as a regular or a small portion, with the small portion being big enough to feed the average adult. I had the horse goulash with red cabbage and potato dumplings, amazing! They do brew their own beer on the premises and have a good selection of German and other European wines. All this counts up to 4 stars, the fifth star is for service and price. The staff was lovely, welcoming and straight away offered an English menu. My main meal cost 9.90Euro which I still can't believe as it was amazing and so much food, I couldn't fit a desert in. And that was the small portion! If you ever find yourself in G.F.Handel's home town, try this place for a proper German dining experience with a bit of history on the side.

I attended a very nice Company dinner here, along with Jesse T. and others. We arrived via a…read morehistorical trolly ride that first took us through the streets of Merseberg and Halle. I enjoyed the harvest theme decor of the interior, although I thought it was a little dark. We had our own room within this medium-sized restaurant. There is one key design issue here in that the men's restroom door opens directly into on of the dining areas. I got yelled at by a patron because I apparently didn't close the door quickly enough. I really enjoyed my meal and with Jesse T. making the beer recommendations, how could I go wrong? Service was very good, especially for a group of our size. English really wasn't spoken here, but we had plenty of German speakers to see us through.

I had a liter of Doppelbock on the trolley, so I was glad to find that they had plain old Bock Beer in liter mugs. I got that and half a duck. I remembered it was a huge portion, but it was delicious. Restaurant is a little dark, and there were dried hop bines above, so I thought that was pretty neat.
