Gästehaus Eckenfels

The sort of restaurant you would love to have in your own neighbourhood. This long-standing family-run establishment delights guests with classics like cordon bleu, as well as contemporary creations such as scallops with pumpkin, curry and lemongrass – and, of course, excellent charcoal-grilled steaks. The menu, which features plenty of comforting soul food dishes, is complemented by friendly service and an inviting setting that makes it easy to linger. In summer, the terrace is divine. Unsurprisingly, this charming spot is also a popular choice for weddings.

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!

Rebstock offers comfortable, country-style dining rooms, attentive service and good regional fare including snail soup, pike dumplings and venison ragout. In summer the idyllic terrace offers views of the surrounding parkland and the Black Forest, while another attraction is the large selection of home-made cakes and pastries.

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.
