I did a bunch or research with menus because i really wanted Käsespätzle while i was in Germany . I…read morelooked like rain so i ended up sitting inside. The server was excellent! This review is not about the service. Sitting inside gave me a direct Birds Eye view into the kitchen... unfortunately. After ordering I had to watch the person in the kitchen, while preparing foods, eating and licking his fingers. It completely ruined my meal!! The taste wasn't bad at all but i was already too thrown off having to watch this the entire time i was there. I'm super bummed, my 20$ meal was left on the plate.

Rothenburg, you rock! And so does Zum Schwan!…read more When touring Rothenburg you'll clearly grab some lunch. Do yourself a solid and stop in here, you'll love it. The grub is good, but the service is spectacular! So friendly, so inviting, so accommodating! A decent beer selection, which goes without saying (writing), and at fair prices. By the way, they do accept cards here, which is a plus as so many European eateries don't. Cheers!

The only disappointing meal on our entire vacation through Germany, Austria and Prague. They seemed…read moreto use a lot of prepared or canned foods. I tried to order a dish of "wild mushrooms" served in a bread bowl, which sounded great but the waiter advised me against it. Ended up ordering the mushroom-cream schnitzel, and it was underwhelming. The meat was a little tough and dry, and the sauce was terrible, made with canned mushrooms. It was served with potato croquettes, which seemed to be a frozen, pre-made item. All of the other entrees our table ordered were similarly unimpressive. The best part of the meal was the Gold Ochsen beers, which are good but not particularly great. After our meal, the server was quick to point out that we could leave a tip for his service. I guess rules of etiquette can be confusing for tourists from other countries, but to me that is always inappropriate. We ended up going across the street to the Erich Trumpp metzgerei and picked up some items for a picnic lunch in the Rothenburg gardens.

Wow! This place did not disappoint…read more From the attentive service, the great vibe and atmosphere, to the outstanding food...no wonder this place is always busy. I highly recommend making a reservation, especially if you have a bigger group. They have an extensive menu and can recommend the Schaufele and the Schmankerlpfanne (I know that's a mouthful)....it was definitely our best meal in Rothenburg. And be sure to try their selection of schnapps.

Very pleasant service on the deck just above the river. Nice menu choices large and small, and be sure and try dessert. It was a very clever twist on traditional fare.

One of the worst possible place to choose in Stuttgart.
