ALLENDORF AM RHEIN in Oestrich-Winkel

Yes, we had a delicious meal, but what surprised me most was the open kitchen and the chefs, who worked with a smile and joy in their work. An excellent team and outstanding service, but you have to make a reservation to eat there.

Very cool location, very chilled...

Great location & great offer! Unfortunately, we didn't catch the best day in terms of service – we waited an hour for our food, and the staff's organization was rather chaotic, which was evident in the atmosphere.

THE location on the Rhine! Upscale but reasonable prices. Excellent food and drinks. Parking is also possible if you have brains (on the other side of the highway and an underpass with a short walk; DO NOT walk across the highway without brains). Highly recommended!

A beautiful little place very idyllically situated on the Rhine

A fantastic location with spectacular views of the countryside and the Rhine. We enjoyed the dawning evening with the slightly reddish sky and felt like we were on vacation. The service was friendly, the menu beautifully designed, and the cool branding on the glasses was a great touch. The food, however, was just okay—nothing more, nothing less. What surprised us, however, and sparked many jokes and conversations in the days that followed, were sardines with bread for 12 euros—which turned out to be a can of sardines with three slices of baguette. 😅

As we all know, three things matter when it comes to restaurants: location, location, location. It's a great place to linger. Otherwise, it's extremely expensive, the food is more like a snack bar, and the crowd is a bit posh. Service is extremely friendly and fast...

Very nice location on the Rhine, top service and amazing food 🤗

A very nice ambiance with a view of the Rhine. The service was okay. Unfortunately, the food wasn't that tasty...but we would come again for a drink and to enjoy the beautiful ambiance.

The location is truly fantastic; there's no other comparable restaurant right on the Rhine, stylishly decorated, but the food was disappointing: kibbeling from a frozen bag, the mayo had obviously been sitting in the jar for hours; it had already set on top, the fries were cold, the herring came with cranberries (???), the accompanying potatoes were cold, the salad was dressed with sour sauce, boringly sour, not particularly clever. The service was practically nonexistent. You can order online from your table, but since everyone around us was asking for their orders and going to the counter to pay (because there are service staff, but they can't be persuaded to come to the table), you're really unsure whether the online order will work... We got it at the same time, but some of it was cold. So I can't understand the good reviews for the food. Boring lounge music, too loud (if the music were better, then it could be a bit louder...)

In good weather you should definitely reserve. After 45 minutes we didn't feel like it and left. The service has improved compared to last year. Thanks to the possibility to place an order online, it is definitely faster than before. The food is okay but quite expensive. Important here is only possible card payment, cash is not accepted. The location is a dream. You sit right on the water, when holiday feeling comes up.

Great view, really good food—and special praise to Kaya from the service department! It couldn't be better!

Beautifully situated overlooking the Rhine tributary. There are various seating and dining options (uncovered at the water's edge, benches under umbrellas, lounge areas, or deckchairs on the sand) – as well as beach chairs. The "Kibbelinge with fries" are very good, as is the "Cheesecake in a glass." The option to reserve a table online is also a good option. And if you arrive by car, there are several parking spaces right there.

A great destination right on the Rhine with a beach bar feel, good food (especially fish dishes), and house wine. The playground is ideal for families. Great views, but service can be slow at times and prices are rather high. Only card payments are accepted. Advance reservations are recommended.

One of the most beautiful places in the Rheingau! We love it here! Unfortunately, the service ruins much of the great atmosphere... As soon as it's busy, the service staff are unfortunately completely overwhelmed and unfriendly.

Nice ambience, over-salted food, and a listless waitress who rolled her eyes and sighed when ordering.

Cash isn't accepted. You have to pay by card. That's very annoying. The location on the Rhine and the ambiance are very nice. My apricot cheesecake was mediocre. The cake was too hard/dense and there was very little fruit in it. Even though the background music was quiet, the annoying bass constantly blared from the speakers. Boom, boom, boom.

Yes..view of the Rhine..good wine and food

I was at Allendorf recently and bought three bottles of red wine called "Illusion." What can I say, it was incredibly delicious! The taste was truly something special. The service was also excellent; I received very friendly and competent advice. I would especially like to thank the lady there; she was super warm and helpful. I will definitely be back! Highly recommend it! 🍷

The ambiance is very nice. Unfortunately, the tuna was completely overcooked. We weren't asked if we wanted anything else to drink. Unfortunately, we also noticed some inconsistencies in the service.

My recommendation for a beach club in the central Rhine Valley. Wine directly from the winery. The food is upscale. Reservations are recommended.

The food could be better, but the wines are generally very good. A nice, relaxed place.

A super nice atmosphere and especially great with kids! A climbing wall, a huge sandbox with toys, and a beach chair—the kids were in seventh heaven. And the food and wine were excellent, too!

A very nice beach bar where you can enjoy delicious food and drinks. If the weather is nice, you should make a reservation to get a nice spot.

It was great there...the junior boss was really nice...we took part in his "color tour"...very impressive...unfortunately we didn't have time to eat there anymore... Browsed in the great shop for too long and tried and bought a number of wines 👌😜

I made a reservation 2 months ago and yesterday I received an email that, without any further clarification, my reservation for 24-05-2025 is cancelled. Customer service is not their strongest asset it seems.

Delicious wines, good accompanying food, great service, beautiful view of the Rhine! An all-round great stay near Allendorf am Rhein! Thank you for that! I didn't make a reservation and luckily still managed to get a seat in the shade. Next time (will definitely come) will be reserved!

As always, great wine and good food with a holiday flair right on the water

A really nice place with good food and the best wine. My personal recommendation: Red Riesling

No oysters unfortunately 🥲. Indian waiter was not so professional, his colleague was in front of us... She was halfway through our order and he chased her away. That's why 3 stars for service.

A very nice place to enjoy. Whether just wine or food, both are very good. The view of the Rhine is very beautiful. The benches are rather uncomfortable, but okay. Ordering has now been made much easier with the QR code. This means that waiting times have been optimized. The drinks and food are very tasty. The staff very nice. Sometimes unfortunately arrogant, but most of them very polite. We were able to sit there and enjoy until late in the evening. Thank you for that! We would definitely like to come back.

Beginning very friendly food super delicious

The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere. Unfortunately, our visit was still disappointing - not because of the food or the atmosphere, but because of the way we treated guests. Although the staff generally seemed friendly, we had the feeling that they were heavily selected. Since we didn't have a reservation, we got there early, but were immediately informed that our stay was only possible until 12:30 p.m. We were also not allowed to freely choose our seats. When we asked whether we could sit in one of the beach chairs or loungers, we were refused with reference to alleged reservations. We then took a seat near the reception - and were able to clearly observe and hear how differently guests were treated. Some got places on the coveted beach loungers straight away - despite also not having a reservation - while others were put off waiting or turned away completely. The choice seemed to have less to do with availability and more to do with the appearance or status of the guests. What was particularly irritating was that all the beach chairs remained empty until we left at 12:30 p.m. This impression of conscious selection leaves a bitter aftertaste in an otherwise beautiful setting.

Very nice place with a great playground for children. Food is also good and location is very nice!

It's a shame that kibbeling uses the inexpensive pollack instead of cod, given the price you can definitely expect cod, so it's just a fake kibbeling

Great atmosphere. Very friendly staff. And great wine :) Christoph at reception is caring and very nice.

A restaurant with a nice view and the weather is nice so there are a lot of customers. The food is good and the local wine is the best.

We called today at 7:50 p.m. and asked if we could get a table and something to eat at 8:15 p.m. The waiter then said in a slightly irritated tone that the kitchen was only open until 8:30 p.m. We then hurried and were at the restaurant at 8:05 p.m. They said there we wouldn't get anything to eat anymore... It's a real shame, especially since we rushed!

Very nicely located directly on the banks of the Rhine. There are free parking spaces available. For many guests there is an alternative parking space in Winkel directly on the other side of the main road with an underpass to the banks of the Rhine. Beautiful outdoor area with children's entertainment. Delicious small, very tasty dishes and matching wines. Very friendly service team. Full sun but there are also parasols available. I was very satisfied.

Very nice restaurant, you can end the evening really well when the weather is nice, nice staff and a great view of the Rhine If the weather is good, a reservation makes sense 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Beautiful here April 30, 2023 Had a very tasty meal today 5.4.24 Always very nice here 9.3.25 Finally weather to come here again

Waited half an hour, no service, no friendliness from the staff. Staff apparently at odds with each other. Simply underground. I won't come here anymore.

No, service and treatment of guests is subpar.

What a mess! We were assigned a seat by the waitress - ordered it - waited more than an hour for the waitress - then when we asked, we (4 people) were told by an extremely unfriendly employee with a cold smile: "You haven't made a reservation - then there's nothing!!" Unfortunately I can't give zero points! As a regular guest, I can only hope that this arrogance doesn't become normal at Allendorfs!!

Because we didn't make a reservation, we were offered a place on the wall. Since we wanted something to eat, we didn't think it was that great. Then, mercifully, we were able to sit inside. We were ignored for quite a long time. After 20 minutes a nice person asked us if we were happy with everything. Then I said that we would like to order something. After ordering we were told that the food was taking longer. I then asked if it could take an hour. I couldn't get an answer. Then we left again. Because we were hungry. I find the place very arrogant and overrated. Nobody sees me there anymore.

Our favorite place. Best fish in the area. Mussels in particular are incredibly good. We come there often and enjoy it. Ideal for families with children.

Great, original location with an attentive young team and delicious fish, table reservation for 3 hours, definitely even nicer in summer

We had a wonderful day with awesome food and lovely servers. Absolutely can't wait to go back.

Great location👍👏fun, committed team. Food and drinks are great! 👍👏

Small menu, good quality, nice location right on the water. I always enjoy coming here. Only the toilets are rather unpleasant.

Unique location, friendly service, fast service

A really nice location. Very cozy, the food was very good. Didn't think there would be a lot of fish. It stands out completely from the surrounding locations. Class. The wine and also the food were very good. Always happy to come back.

Located directly on the banks of the Rhine and unusual for the Rheingau, location with beach flair and more of a seaside coastal atmosphere, very good service

Super friendly staff, the food is of very good quality, at fair prices. Also great wines. You should definitely visit this restaurant if you are in the Rheingau.

It's a wonderful place to sit directly on the Rhine. Real holiday feeling

New Germany Restaurant, First Branch, Al-Naeem Roundabout, north of Dar Al-Shifa Hospital

Just beautiful. Good and friendly service, delicious food and an ambience that easily puts you in the holiday mood🤗

Very nicely located on the Rhine, recommended!

We were very disappointed :( we made an order and waited for it for more than an hour. We had to ask the waiter several times when the order would be available. And in the end, we were told that something was messed up and our order would not be available. Terrible service and work of the staff.

Beautiful atmosphere at Rhein river with a great view, lovely food and very good vino!

When the weather is nice, it's definitely worth a visit, the seating is simply wonderful and the ambience is something different and definitely special.

Beautiful location directly on the Rhine. Good wine and some delicious fish dishes.

A super relaxed atmosphere that invites you to linger and enjoy. A short vacation like on the beach in Holland, but right on the Rhine with uncomplicated, relaxed staff who are very attentive, friendly and approachable. Fun factor included! Allendorf am Rhein offers very good cuisine that stands out from the Hessian-influenced Rheingau thanks to both its Mediterranean and Nordic charm, including its own wine.

Delicious food & drink in an incomparable environment… experience is wonderful!!! ❤️

We've known Allendorfs for a long time but I have to admit that "buying" 5 star reviews for free schnapps is really unbelievable. We mainly come here because of the great atmosphere and enjoy the wine but don't eat there ourselves. But I find it impossible to notice how several guests were “asked” for a review. For me that explains the many positive reviews and I'm sorry but after the Brentanohaus that was it for us here too. Everyone is aware of how difficult it is to find good staff, but retrained staff with such tasks is not an option for us. Thank you, we continue to buy the wines but no longer consume them on site. greeting Stephen.

Came past here by chance on a bike ride. There were no free tables, we were allowed to sit down with a nice family. Tried a few nice wines and couldn't resist the Kibbelings (?). Of course, the great weather also played its part in making it an all-round successful afternoon for us. We'd love to come back, next time with a reservation.

Nice Nordic-inspired restaurant right on the Rhine. We were there with a larger group, everything went well with the reservation and we had a nice table with enough space. Unfortunately, there were compromises when it came to food: the surf n turf dishes arrived even though they were ordered medium rare, the tuna was rare even though they were ordered medium and one dish didn't come at all even after repeated requests. The servive was nice, just a little uncoordinated. That wouldn't have bothered me either. However, 5 star reviews were exchanged for a free nightcap at the neighboring table. That's not appropriate.

The atmosphere here is extremely chic, and the waiter also had a commanding tone, no thanks. Once and never again.

New favorite place! It's really nice here. The staff is super friendly. Drinks and food are also good. Such a great atmosphere and there is a playground for children. We would love to come back the next time we vacation in the area.

You can sit comfortably here right on the Rhine and enjoy your time. The open-air restaurant is divided into the “beach area” with sand and loungers, a restaurant and many other seating options for guests who just want to have a drink.

You are only allowed in if you register, the normal plebs are left out

Wonderfully different gastronomy but nice

We've been to this oasis of well-being several times now, especially from Würzburg. Everything is just right here and you can simply enjoy life there. Keep it up.

The fish and chips is delicious and my son ordered the pasta dish which he said was very good. The atmosphere is relaxing and enjoyable. I'm definitely going back for dinner. The staff was great and very friendly. The restaurant had a positive vibe.

Great ambience, delicious food, friendly and competent service. Thanks for the recommendation for the chili mayonnaise. ATTENTION: NO CASH PAYMENT possible.

Outstanding location, excellent food and great staff. The cleanliness of the toilets, however, needs to be improved.

Marvin is a cool waiter and was very nice

Incredibly beautiful location on the Rhine - great service, very customer-oriented and a small but fine menu with a good price-performance ratio - we would love to come back and love the wine

Super nice spot with incredibly good staff 🤘🏼

In short: nice but overwhelmed staff, mediocre food, good atmosphere, lousy toilets, high prices Many of the other applications here are false because the waiters will give you something if you show a 5-star rating. I saw with my own eyes how four people at the next table got a limoncello on the house. The ambience is certainly the best thing about this restaurant. The lights and beach chairs are particularly impressive in the evenings. The staff is also nice, but unfortunately they constantly make mistakes and are slow. We were a group of 11 people and glasses, drinks and even food were simply forgotten. Whenever we asked again, another waiter/waitress came into the kitchen and then never came back. Unfortunately the food is not worth the money. One of the tuna steaks arrived raw inside (it was ordered medium). The portion sizes are small to normal. The selection is sufficient, unless you are vegetarian or vegan. I found the toilets particularly bad - they were 4 glorified Dixi toilets which get far too warm in the summer and are hardly enough for the mass of guests. The cleanliness also left something to be desired. I think this restaurant has more potential, but in this condition it's better to just go there for a drink. Actually I would have 2 stars against it, but I would like to balance the purchased reviews.

Great location, super friendly and fast service, delicious food. Very child friendly.

Marvin did a great job. Thank you a great stay

The portion size of the salad with the shrimp was very, very small. Since salad doesn't actually cost much, I would have been really embarrassed to serve it. Basically it was shrimp with a side salad. My girls had burgers, which were more extensive. The salad with shrimp still tasted very good.

Great location! Delicious fish and great beach atmosphere.

Great location, great right on the Rhine. Nice maritime flair. We'd love to come back :-)

Very good service. Unfortunately, the street noises are present. Upper class. A little too posh for us

The toilets urgently need to be rebuilt.

Pretty restaurant in a beautiful location directly on the Rhine. Very modern, friendly service, delicious wine. We didn't eat, so we can't give a review. However, the other guests' food looked very good, especially fish and chips, so I would come back for that.

The crew was totally overwhelmed today, it took over 50 minutes until the food (2 fries, Spundekäs and baked sheep's cheese (cold) on tomato salad) finally arrived after several requests. The baguette was also missing and when we mentioned this when paying, the waitress was annoyed. She could always listen to it, only bad comments would be written and she couldn't help it that there was only one person in the kitchen. Very disappointing...

The hashtag #SyltamRhein doesn't do the 'vineyard' justice. The ambience is carelessly designed, the benches you sit at are more reminiscent of a beer garden. Are uncomfortable. There is no sundowner feeling at all. Unfortunately, the service is a bit overwhelmed because it is probably inexperienced, which in principle wouldn't be a problem if you were at least friendly instead of arrogant (a drink only came after the third request with the words, it will come, then the entire meal was served another table was left with us, which the service staff didn't want to acknowledge at first). Food overall OK, but not exceptional, the prices are too high, for example 6 oysters for over 26 euros. A lot has already been written on the subject of toilets, Dixie style, okay, you can do it, but people, please take care of the cleanliness. That's a disgrace. And that doesn't fit with what you would like to be. Sylt? Absolutely not. It just remains a winery. That would be enough. It's a shame, because it's actually beautiful on the Rhine.

Great ambience but high drink prices

Unfortunately it's more of a tourist trap, quite expensive for average quality food and drinks. The service is nice but completely overwhelmed and extremely unprofessional, sorry but you can't run a restaurant with only student help. Overall not recommended.

A wonderful place to relax and slow down. The service was courteous and extremely friendly. The wine recommendations were completely to my taste. I love kibbeling, and where can you find it, and above all, it's so delicious. I'm becoming a repeat offender.m

Wonderful evening with delicious food, great drinks and a great ambience on the Rhine. Always happy.

Great location, Dutch style food. Come again

Very nice staff and delicious fish sandwiches. The lemonade we had was great. Of course there are also other great dishes and drinks. Something for everyone. Great atmosphere and nice audience.

The best herring roll I've ever eaten

A place for the bourgeoisie from Rhine-Main and tends to be less frequented by “real Rheingauer” - a typical “see and be seen”. Certainly a nice location, but I find neither the service nor the food to be intoxicating. Price/performance is not consistent in my opinion. Individual items, such as a lemonade (0.4 liters) are grossly overpriced at €6.50. I prefer other more casual restaurants that offer significantly more for less or the same money.

The Surf'nTurf was good but I would have liked sauce or herb butter with it. Otherwise really nice location and cool vibe. Definitely recommended.

Mega location Great ambience Service is a dream Everything perfect 5 Stars
