Hotel-Restaurant Sonne

Umberto Scuccia is a well-known figure in Heilbronn. Here on the 12th floor of the WTZ Tower he runs an upmarket, minimalist-style restaurant offering both pleasantly pared-down Italian cuisine with the accent on top-quality produce and a wonderful view of the city.

Here, traditional Swabian cuisine meets global influences, blending local and international flavours. Enjoy cordial service in the comfort of either the main dining room steeped in history or the charming inner courtyard. The kitchen serves up seasonally influenced dishes. One of the most tempting dishes is the house classic: Swabian Zwiebelrostbraten (fried beef and onions in gravy) with maultaschen, spaetzle and salad. Chic guestrooms are available for overnight stays. On Tuesday evenings, the restaurant is only open to hotel patrons.

This charmingly laid-back restaurant serves dishes made with regional and seasonal ingredients, drawing on influences from the Mediterranean and beyond. The best way to experience the culinary artistry is through the six-course set menu. There is also a popular lunch deal that changes weekly. In the summer, the terrace on the charming little market square beckons, whether for a meal, a glass of wine or a coffee. The service is friendly and attentive. Across the street is the Marktkeller brasserie and wine bar. They also put on regular themed evenings. Tip: Take a stroll through the enchanting
