Makidan

A truely innovative concept. The food is great (on two consecutive dinners I had the pleasure to enjoy approximately10 dishes - each one was worth it’s price!). Don’t miss out on the Bauchladen - awesome idea! Will definitely return.

Food par excellence - well prepared with understanding of a demanding art. Fairly good wines from the region - maybe the best you could get from there. Why 3 stars? - Simply because of the service. It took too long for first ordering, staff little helpful in making recommendations and please don't just serve food like in any other restaurant. Rather tell a story what is on a plate. This place is supposed to be not about eating, it should be about experiencing.

Food is excellent and prepared with creativity. Reservation in advance is recommended and may be necessary in some periods, especially for groups of people. It's not a cheap place, especially for a small, albeit charming, German winemakers village, neither is it a place for a quick snack. But this is honestly reflected in its title "gourmet restaurant", meaning that the place is intended for the people who love quality food, good drinks, friendly service, nice company, cozy atmosphere and are less concerned about time and money. A place to enjoy your long and lazy evening. Or to impress your business partner.

Great dishes and local wine selection. Minus one star, because we had to beg (multiple times) to get a table - they were hnder-sraffed, but restaurant was effectively only 40% full. Thanks for not letting us check into the hotel with only room service as an option.

Good restaurant for fine dining. You can order as many small dishes as you want.

Ohne große Erwartungen waren wir am 1. Weihnachtsfeiertag als Gäste des (übrigens hervorragenden) Hotel Ritter im Makidan. Wir entschieden uns für ein Drei- bzw. Vier-Gang-Menü. Jeder Gang war eine Wucht – Interpretation, Anrichtung und Geschmack waren einfach nur toll. Der Service war perfekt. Insgesamt eine absolute Empfehlung, nein, ein Muss, wenn man in der Nähe ist. Ich würde sogar noch weiter gehen und jedem empfehlen, auch eine längere Anfahrt für dieses kulinarische Erlebnis in Kauf zu nehmen. Insgesamt eine glatte Eins. Wir kommen wieder.

Wir haben das samstägliche 4-Gang Menü gewählt und waren sehr zufrieden. Das Essen war vorzüglich mit absolut ausreichend großen Portionen. Dazu kam ein ausgezeichnet aufmerksamer Service. Das ganze kostet seinen Preis, der im Endeffekt aber angemessen ist. Wer ein kulinarisches Highlight sucht, ist im Makidan gut aufgehoben.
