"Having read good reviews we were very pleased that we could book a table this evening and really looked forward to a delicious meal. There was a short wait for the charming waitress to take our order but the four of us ordered gourmet burgers at the same time as our drinks and we initially chatted happily as we waited for our meal. After an 80 minute wait we were less than happy. A group of 6 local people were also unhappy at waiting so long, so this was not a case of different cultural expectations. There was no apology or explanation when the food eventually arrived. The burgers would have been tasty but the temperature of all four varied from tepid to cold. It appears the burgers were cooked much earlier but had sat cooling for some inexplicable reason. One friend accepted the offer of sauce but the waitress forgot to bring it to him. Another ordered a second glass of wine when her meal arrived (having drunk the first whilst waiting) but this did not arrive until we had finished eating. When the waitress asked if our meals were good we said, "Well, they were cold". The waitress told us the food was not expected to be very hot as the bread was cold. We have eaten many burgers between us that have always been hot - these had been left to cool. All in all it was a huge disappointment. We have only once before not left a tip. It felt uncomfortable not to leave one but this meal was a huge disappointment and service was poor."

"Kurze Einleitung vorab: Vor einigen Tagen hatten wir einen Tisch für 3 Personen bestellt und dabei vermerken lassen, dass wir wegen der ganzen Blaufellchen kommen und diese essen möchten. Der Koch wurde noch mal gefragt und es uns wurde zugesichert, dass wir diese bekommen können. Heute sind wir also in Lindau angekommen und haben uns mächtig auf den Lindauer Hof gefreut. Kurz nach unserer Bestellung kam die sehr freundliche Bedienung an den Tisch und teilte uns mit, dass es keine ganzen Fellchen mehr gibt. Wir bekamen 1 Karte ( für drei Personen) um noch mal zu gucken und bestellten etwas frustriert zunächst eine Suppe. Kurz bevor diese kam, trat der Chef an unseren Tisch, legte mein Handy welches auf der Serviette lag beiseite und sammelte die Stoffservietten ein. Mit der Begründung wenn man nur eine Suppe isst, ist eine Stoffserviette zu teuer, wir bekommen Papierservietten wir versuchten ihm unsere Enttäuschung zu erklären, da drehte er sich nur schulterzuckend weg. Kurz darauf kam er noch mal, nicht um mit uns eine Lösung zu finden oder uns ein anderes Gericht schmackhaft zu machen sondern um uns zu sagen, dass es einfach nicht geht eine Stoffserviette zur Verfügung zustellen, wenn nur eine Suppe bestellt ist Ich hätte mir gewünscht, dass mit uns gesprochen wird, eine Lösung gesucht wird und auf uns als Gast eingegangen wird. Leider nicht. Seit vielen Jahren besuchen wir das Restaurant wenn wir nach Lindau kommen. Dieses Jahr war es das letzte Mal!"

"Our first choice restaurant was booked up so we chose to eat here as it was close to where we were staying and looked ok (we hadn't checked Tripadvisor!). It wasn't an altogether terrible experience, but I cannot recommend it. The food was nothing special but was ok. But what on earth was going on with the wine? We asked for a Red recommendation and the waiter recommended the most expensive. Alarm bells. But what was also odd was that he said it was cheaper to buy it by the glass rather than by the bottle. In the end we bought glasses totalling 75cl (a bottle's worth), but we never saw the actual bottle that the wine came from (though an unopened bottle of the alleged "same" wine was brought to the table for us to see on request). For a recommended wine it was very disappointing, and certainly not as good as the cheaper glass of Merlot chosen by another member of our group. Then it came to paying the bill and guess what, they don't accept credit cards or even debit cards. They seemed unaware that in 2016 the cashless society is the norm and if they don't accept cards they need to make this clear at the door and on the menu. I then had to ask where the nearest ATM was. It was 5 mins away so I left the restaurant while the remainder of the party stayed, but when I got to the ATM it was out of order. So when I returned to the restaurant I then had to borrow money from our guests - very embarrassing. So my suggestion is don't go here unless it's a last resort."
