The restaurant is quite large and is a gathering place for food and drink, serving traditional German dishes (served family style) and local wine and beer. Schloss Weinhaus serves local beer and wine, and the welcoming servers keep everything coming, from starters, main course and desert. They don't slack on the beverages either. The crowning glory is the live music with standard German and American songs (some Elvis, Roll out the Barrel, et). It's a rollicking good time.

Not fancy, but homemade to order. Unrushed, as the young woman cooks your order on demand while her husband manages front of house. The homemade wines (mostly Rieslings and Pinots) were delicious. They offered a special menu for asparagus season - imagine thick white asparagus maybe 9" long, tender and sweet. Accompanied by a tender and perfectly seasoned schnitzel with potatoes and a salad. Also tried an appetizer (enough for a meal on its own) of a cheese marinated in an onion sauce covered with chopped onions on slices of fresh dark bread - surprisingly tasty, though they were surprised and seemed a little worried that a foreigner would order it lol. We were the only non-Germans there, among 4 largish tables that are expected to be shared. Dinner for 2, including 3 glasses of wine, was only €45. Cash only - they have no internet connectivity (no cell signal, let alone wi-fi, which was a good opportunity to disconnect and let time slow down), but there's an ATM nearby.

One was a giant spider that my husband wouldn't even kill :-). I know that these things can't always be controlled but FOUR? Still, I would probably stay there again.

Being the southern American girls that we are, we each wanted our own flight. The server told us that one carousel would be enough for whole table, so we decided to listen to his suggestion.

The 12 wine carousel was indeed large enough for our table and we each found our favorites. One star down for the wait time.
