    My family and I are tracking to Germany the week of Thanksgiving. We thought we'd try Rheinblick to prepare for the trip. I love the authentic food in this restaurant and the care they take in the presentation. It'll be nice to compare to the experience in Germany. My son had the metzger and even with his teenage tummy, he couldn't finish all 5 wurst, haha. Although he did eat half my schnitzel. The team was fantastic and a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Definitely recommend and ensure you make reservations.

    Loved the atmosphere lots of high wood beams made to look like an authentic German house interior. Male Wait staff dressed in lederhosen and the ladies were dressed in Dirndl dresses, it was such a lively place. Our server Stormy was great and very attentive. This was our first time here and we loved it! I ordered the Reuben Schnitzel red and it was delicious! Really thin Schnitzel breaded lightly and corned beef on top with Swiss melted over it Awww! Couldn't eat it all. Son got the Jagerschnitzel. Delicious! Wife got the Hahnchen Altes Land. Also delicious. Thanks for a great dining experience. We shall be back!

    We tried Rheinblick on a Saturday night. The restaurant is small and filled up pretty quickly. My very favorite thing on their menu is the Zwiebelsuppe, which is the German take on French onion soup. It's great! However, they only serve it during the colder months, so be sure to stop in during the Nov-March timeframe to try it. We shared the cucumber salad, which was very good. My husband had The Metzger (Butcher's plate) which wound up being his dinner the following night as well (it's a lot of food!). He thought it was really good, and he also enjoyed the mashed potatoes and sauerkraut. I had the Jagerschnitzel, which was also delicious. It was served with spatzle which was good not great, and asparagus which was way overcooked and after a couple of bites, it was just too mushy to eat. Meals include a salad, which is always appreciated. They were a nice size and the dressing was very good, but way too much for our liking. So I'd recommend asking for it on the side. The service was excellent and our waitress was friendly. Rheinblick is definitely worthy of a dining experience if you're interested in authentic German fare in a small restaurant with a comfortable vibe. Unfortunately, they only take reservations if you call during business hours, as there is no other way to do so. And you'll want to be sure to make a reservation!

    Such a special restaurant, rare in the area. Authentic, original German food with a wide ranging menu, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. The food itself was great, standouts were the applesauce that comes with the Kartoffelpuffer, and the mushroom gravy. The vegan schnitzel itself was ok, nice to have the original flavors but the texture was just a soft bean burger, so everything in the dish was the same soft texture. Good service and a very popular place. Fun original decor to admire.

    Amazing dinner. We tried some of the holiday specials, the rabbit and the rum berries and ice cream. The service was outstanding. Waitress was pleasant and thorough. It is a small restaurant so call ahead to nake a reservation. They have updated hours on Google and Facebook page. Can't wait to come back!

    Chocolate torte

    One of the best family dinner experiences we have ever had. Everyone loved the food, the beers and the vibe! Highlights were the butcher's plate aka The Metzger, with 5 different sausages and the chicken schnitzel with apple and melted brie on top. Also, the chocolate torte was delicious with apricot filling inside. The service was great as well. I wish this place wasn't five hours away from me as I have finally found the German restaurant I have been craving for years now. Do take in consideration that they are not open every day and do try to call ahead to reserve, just in case.

    Small and cute restaurant with a great ambiance. The Wiener schnitzel was so yummy. Very tender and not too heavy. The spaetzl was also really good and not gummy at all. The purple cabbage was flavorful as well. I loved the gluhwein it was so flavorful and really really great. The cheesecake was good but a bit gritty texture wise. I think this is the way German cheesecakes are supposed to be now that I've had it a few times at different places and have had the same experience? The raspberry sauce was not too sweet and good. The bathroom was clean but the toilet didn't flush for some reason and they didn't have away for me to dry my hands. The boot glasses for the beer was really fun. Highly recommend this place!

    Great friends for dinner!!!

    What a great find in Canandaigua!!! Great food and service !!! Will definitely go back to this place!!!

    Absolutely amazing, authentic German fare! It's a bit tight inside, so I can imagine on busy nights it may fill up easily! It was my first time having German food, so I went traditional. The salad at the beginning, while small had the best dressing ever. The weiner schnitzel, spatzel and cabbage was all delicious. The beer is served in these ceramic stein mugs (super cool!) and the desserts were great as well! I wished I lived closer, this restaurant would definitely find itself in the regular rotation! Definitely check it out!

    If you are in town this is a must stop. Definitely recommend a reservation. The service was top notch the hostesses was very friendly and our waitress was very knowledgeable. They had a beer special where you got a 64 oz of their ocktoberfest and get to keep the glass. They food was beyond delicious. I got the Wiener schnitzel with garlic sauce. I would come back again!

    We had a great time this summer meeting friends for an outdoor meal at Rheinblick! Attentive service, delicious food and drink, and reasonable prices -- hard to beat! There aren't too many German restaurants in the area, making this a top choice! We had the weiner schnitzel, spaetzle with mushroom sauce, latkes served with sauerkraut, all washed down with a couple beers and an elderberry soda. Good times!

    We stopped by yesterday to have lunch after a morning on the wine trail and we were so glad we did!…read moreBefore we talk about the food, just want to give a shout out to our waitress who was just phenomenal-- I wish I would have caught her name! She was so attentive and quick to help if we had questions. We tried the sampler, and others at the table had different brats. Everyone said their meals were great-- the sampler is more than enough for two people, and can certainly be a snack for a group of four. Each of the brats are seasoned so well, but my personal favorite was the andouille-- it was spicy and seasoned to perfection with a crunch when you bite into it. The bread that came with the sample was also great- really crispy and warm! We were also able to try each of the sauces, and the banana pepper mustard and beer mustard are delicious! So much so, we bought a jar of the banana pepper mustard to take home with us. There were plenty of seats inside and outside the restaurant. Definitely would love to come support this place again in the future!

    I can't really sit here and say this was a positive or negative experience; it was just kind of odd…read morebut ultimately it delivered what it was supposed to. My cousin chums and I stopped by here on Labor Day after our mini wine tour in need of sustenance aka real food (a quality all of the wineries we went to were severely lacking in). From what I could tell, this is sort of an extension of the Arbor Hill Winery - to access Brew & Brats, we actually ended up walking through what I assume was Arbor Hill's main gift shop/wine tasting area, which sold more in the line of quasi-bougie condiments than actual wine. We briefly considered doing a third winery tasting here but I just didn't like the vibe, so we continued on to the back of the premises where this restaurant/bar was. Perfectly pleasant in there; the main establishment seemed to be centered on a barn-like structure (it almost felt like it had a former life as a ye olde general store, then got cleaned out to be a bar), though we ended up sitting/eating right outside in a little pavilion area with picnic tables (great weather for it). I also used the facilities at one point, which were unique - also a bit barn-like and felt very...temporary storage unit but not in a bad way, if that makes sense. Everything was spacious and clean from my perspective. When in Rome, I think you get brats. There was understandably a Bavarian-themed tinge to this menu, but heavily Americanized. So sauerkraut was a pretty pervasive ingredient, but it also had a lot of mainstream salad and BBQ sides. Interesting for sure. I didn't want to complicate things after multiple wine tastings, so I opted to get the Arbor Hill Sherried Wine Sausage with a side of baked beans. Honestly not bad; the marinating of the sherried wine gave it a nice fruity/sweet tinge. I'm more of a hot dog connoisseur when it comes to my weenies and I'm not a fan of condiments; even if I were though, something this flavorful probably doesn't need to rely on them. And I can always get down with a toasted bun. The beans were just okay; too sweet for my palate. I was expecting something more savory given the bacon, but literally every other ingredient drowns it out. I'd remove the brown sugar - if the sauce is already sherried wine-flavored, you really don't need to double-down. The service was honestly a little strange/awkward. Our waitress was friendly enough and given what we were ordering, it would have been insane if the wait time was more than 10 minutes or so (and it wasn't). We were in and out of there relatively quickly, giving us plenty of time to test drive our Airbnb hot tub. But she was very flustered and agitated throughout our stay there, constantly apologizing for the chaos and wait times, which were nonexistent. Every time she came to our table, it was accompanied by a flurry of, "Sorry, it's just been CRAZY with all of these people," which, given that there were literally two other parties and tons of empty seats just wasn't accurate and made no sense. My assumption is that they had a crazy lunchtime rush or something that she was still processing and/or recovering from, but I really don't know. Regardless, it didn't really detract from the overall meal or anything. The prices were out-and-out fantastic. For a legit entree and sides, casual as they were, $15 or so was a legit deal. This whole Naples area was generally pretty affordable, to its credit. Not really my kind of food in the grand scheme of things, but it was fine for what it was. Hope our waitress got a good night's sleep at least.

From the moment I walked in, I was ignored by the bartender, Pearl, while others around me were being served. When I politely asked if I could order a drink, I was finally acknowledged, but when I requested a specific drink, rather than simply saying they didn't have it, the bartender rudely cursed at me, saying, "Why the f** would I make a drink like that? Order something off the menu."* Shocked by such an unprofessional response, I remained calm and respectful, yet the situation escalated further. The bartender threatened to call the police on me for no reason--simply because I requested a drink. Then, without cause, the bouncer Eric aggressively grabbed me, thrashing me around and refusing to let go, even though I repeatedly and calmly told him to release me. Despite being completely non-confrontational and not being violent back, he continued to manhandle me in a way that was completely unnecessary and unacceptable. He was so aggressive that he broke one of my nails and injured my wrist. It was obvious that I was being targeted and mistreated because I am a Hispanic woman--if I had been a man or accompanied by one, I highly doubt I would have been treated this way. After filing a police report, I was informed by law enforcement that this establishment already has a bad reputation for being discriminatory. This speaks volumes about how they operate and how little they care about treating people with basic dignity and respect. This was an obvious case of discrimination and assault, and I will be pursuing legal action. I strongly urge anyone--especially women and minorities--to avoid this place at all costs. No one deserves to be treated this way.
