It is little wonder that Anette and Stefan Rottler's hotel is so popular: Their restaurant serves classic Baden dishes made with top-quality ingredients – from snail soup to pork fillet in cream of mushroom sauce to Zwiebelrostbraten (fried beef and onions in gravy). The smaller dishes and reasonably priced set menu of the day are also much in demand. The wine list is dedicated to local labels. Friendly and attentive service. Food is served in various dining rooms, some with a cosy, regional feel, others with a fresh and modern look. Delightful covered terrace.
€€€Classic Cuisine, Farm to table
This is the restaurant of the chic hotel of the same name, which provides the historical backdrop for your meal. The tasteful dining area is done out with high-end furnishings and a modern eye. Staff are friendly and professional as they set about serving you fine Baden classics, modernised French dishes, which you can choose à la carte or combine into a set menu – a vegetarian version is also available. The "Taste Menu" comprising six or seven small courses is also an excellent recommendation. In summer, the garden is magical!
TripAdvisor review sample · 4.3/5 · 80 reviews
Located in Gengenbach's old town, Die Reichsstadt offers classic farm-to-table cuisine. Reviews highlight refined dishes, attentive service, and a charming atmosphere, particularly on the terrace and in the garden. Many guests appreciate the wine pairings. However, some negative feedback points to service inconsistencies, including incorrect information, delayed meals, or lukewarm food. A few visitors noted limited menu options or less careful preparation. While the historic setting and high-quality ingredients are praised, occasional lapses in service execution affect the overall experience.
Suitable for travelers seeking classic cuisine in a historic setting; confirm service details in advance.
