Oben Restaurant

"The historical hamlet of Kohlhof, nestled in an idyllic location above Heidelberg, among meadows and fruit trees, is something of a gourmet island in the forest. Exuding rural allure, the cobbled courtyard is your first port of call: sip on an aperitif, before moving on to the charming, lovingly decorated dining room, which has a pleasantly intimate atmosphere. In the open kitchen, a cleverly devised modern set menu of 13 delicacies is rustled up. Chef Robert Rädel cooks creatively, setting great store by regional and seasonal ingredients, many of which come from the surrounding area, including the wine. The chefs also get involved in serving and explaining the dishes. In between courses, guests are occasionally whisked off to the kitchen, where they can chat with the team at the small chef's table. Only German wines are stocked in the wine cellar – walk in and choose yours! N.B. This place gets very booked up – for last-minute openings, see the "Nachrückerplätze" link on their website." - Michelin Inspector
