Caro's Restaurant

I had a chance to dine at Caro's as part of a symposium dinner. Service was not the fastest. Starters (dashi of mushroom) was underwhelming. The lamb and salmon, however, were excellent. The dessert trilogy was equally good and the vanilla icecream particularly stood out.

We chose Caro’s Restaurant as a treat for my birthday meal, and it didn't disappoint. This spot is located inside Hotel Domizil Tübingen situated directly on the banks of the river Neckar. The views from the seat by the window were absolutely stunning. Caro’s has a simple modern design with neutral colors and a cozy vibe. On the day we visited, there was a sudden storm and the restaurant was full as the terrace guests moved inside. Nevertheless, the staff was outstanding, friendly and courteous. Service took a bit of time, but that was not a problem for us as we had plenty of time to spare. We ordered a three-course meal. consists of an appetizer, a main course, and a dessert: - The Siegfried Rose Wild Berry (Aperitif) - The Pink Grapefruit Spritz (Aperitif) - The Sashimi of Yellow Fin Tuna (First Course) - The May Turnip Carpaccio (First Course) - The Homemade Wild Garlic Tortellini (Second Course) - The Soured Boiled Rump of Local Buffalo (Second Course) - The Rhubarb Tartelette (Third Course) - The Semolina Flummery (Third Course) All the dishes were fine. The combination of ingredients created a complex and balanced flavor profile. Specially the May Turnip Carpaccio and the Soured Boiled Rump of Local Buffalo were something to remember! Make sure to make reservation because it can be busy especially in the evening. Highly recommend! We’ll definitely come again.

Dined during an event. While some dishes were great - as the choice of local venison - and the staff was warm and welcoming - the overall experience was a bit underwhelming. The food was a bit hit and miss for the price. I strongly recommend the venison and the fish (both main courses) but wasn't particularly convinced by appetizers or desserts. It was especially difficult to order wine, with long waiting time to get a bottle and even discussion over "recommendations". I understand the struggles of the waiters in not being able to remember the extensive list of wines, some of which are not in their native tongue. However, if I pick a wine from the menu, I want that one. I don't want to be "recommended" another one, which ended up being not of my liking. I did appreciate the banter and the jokes from both our main waiters. Maybe leaving a wine list on site for them would have spared us some trouble.

The restaurant was a new discovery for us. They serve lunch until 14h45 and have two daily specials with an unbeatable price - performance ratio (between 11 and 13 €). A la carte dishes tend to be between €18 and €35. There are many vegetarian and gluten-free options. Everything was very tasty. They also have delicious chocolates from the chocolatier down the street and good ice cream. We will definitely come back again.

Definitely one of the best restaurants in Tubingen. We had the mushroom ravioli and the grilled cauliflower and they were amongst the best vegetarian dishes we ever ate. Nice and friendly staff as well, so no reason not to stop by when visiting this lovely city.

Everything was exceptional! The food, drinks, and service were outstanding.

Great food, service and awesome selections of wine. Will definitely come again when visiting Tubingen.

Was expecting more from this establishment especially given the high prices. My partner and I each had the 3 course menu. The kitchen clearly tried for creativity, but the flavors didn't complement each other and the execution was generally lackluster. For example the meat dish was overcooked and stuffed with cream cheese. The fish dish was tasty but the presentation was off. Our waiter was friendly and apologetic for the long wait time, clearly they were understaffed. On a positive note, the owner (?) personally offered us a digestif of our choice after the meal which was a nice touch.
