"Nur wenige Schritte vom Hotel Krone entfernt ist der Gerlinger Hof eine nahe gelegene Wahl am Ruhetag des Hotel-Restaurants. Unsere Reservierung erwies sich im nachhinein als überflüssig - es waren gerade mal ein halbes Dutzend Tische belegt. Auf Nachfrage hatte der Service versicherte, die Spargelsuppe sei eine Spargelcreme - dennoch kam ein Schaumsüppchen mit Spargelstücken, welches Spargelsud oder Spargelschalen nicht erahnen ließ. Der Spargelsalat wurde mit Balsamico angemacht und davon so erschlagen, so dass auch hier vom Spargel nichts mehr zu schmecken war. Die Salate zu den Hauptgerichten waren, wie es auch andere Kritiker schon bemerkt haben: Frischer Salat mit ein paar welken Blättern und Strünken - entweder schlecht geschleudert oder in wässrigem, "unaufdringlichem" Dressing. Die Kässpätzle fanden wir leicht fad. Die Bandnudeln unter dem feinen Lachsfilet ertranken in Sahnesauce - unter "Nudelnest" verstehen wir etwas anderes. Hier sicherte der Service Abhilfe für's nächste Ma(h)l zu. Statt offener Weine bestellten wir zum feinen Essen eine Flasche Wein. Das war uns einen kleinen Preisaufschlag wert - 4 Gläsern wären günstiger gewesen. Bei Bezahlen der Rechnung verstanden wir auch, warum im Gerlinger Hof keine EC-Karten, sondern nur Kreditkarten akzeptiert werden. Es kam einer der uralten ritsch-ratsch-Schlitten zum Einsatz."

"It is rare that I 'll try Asian kitchens in small towns villages just because of the disappointing lack of success I 've had previously. However, I decided to give this restaurant a go based on the reviews. I was excited at the prospect that perhaps I would finally find an authentic and tasty asian kitchen in somewhere outside of Stuttgart! However, authentic it was not and while it was not unedible, it certainly wasn 't quite as tasty as I hoped for. I walked into the place and thought how it seemed like a very stereotypical Asian kitchen but decided to be a bit more open minded. After all, I wasn 't going to eat the decor. My friend and I both ordered the Pho Bo and also some fried vegetarian spring rolls. In hindsight, perhaps we should have tried the traditional summer rolls but I was in the mood for something fried dipped in sweet and sour sauce. The spring rolls were 1,50 which probably explained their awful quality. Edible but meh. The Pho Bo is a staple that any restaurant branding itself as Vietnamese should do well. It 's like going to a chinese restaurant and getting rice (well, you get the picture I know, it 's not as easy as cooking rice). But this pho came with no garnishes, just a wedge of lemon and some hot sauce. Well, that must mean there was lots of herbs in the soup already...well, not more than usual. Just lots of spring onion, ginger and maybe some mint. The broth itself was lacking something it was perfectly tasty but not Pho broth as I know it. The beef was very tasty but it was evidently prepared beforehand, fried and then thrown in. Still, kudos for the meat tender and great to dip in the chilli sauce. I wasn 't sure whether I should give it two or three stars I will most likely never go back. I wasn 't wowed and it has reinforced the idea that genuine asian kitchen just cannot seem to be found in small German towns. So, go if you want something quick and cheap but don 't expect any authenticity."
