Menu items such as the pork tenderloin and tuna salad are particularly appreciated with comments emphasizing the tasty and delicious nature of the meals. The restaurant's food is consistently described as excellent and good.
However, guests should be aware that dinner at the hotel comes with specific ordering requirements. Meals need to be booked in advance, some say as early as 3:00 PM or 5:00 PM, otherwise, the options become very limited. In such cases, the chef might only be able to prepare basic dishes like potatoes and schnitzel. While the ordered meals are praised, the restricted ordering process may be inconvenient for those not aware of this policy in advance.
