Bootshaus Mainz in Mainz

I normally recommend this restaurant, but our last visit was very disappointing. The waiter wasn't very friendly. We ordered meat, and one piece was too fatty. So we told the waitress. The chef came over and, with a very arrogant attitude, said it was normal to have fatty meat. As an apology, he offered us a free espresso. In the end, they still charged us for the espresso. The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere. We hope you work on improving the friendliness.

I came based on a recommendation. Unfortunately I didn't find it very good. The food was forgotten. Unfortunately, it was not considered necessary to apologize for the faux pas. So unfortunately we only got drinks. Our request for tea was also ignored. Since there are many very positive reviews here, perhaps an isolated case, but for us it was a bad experience and therefore not a recommendation.

Nice ambience. Large interior area. Good facilities. Unfortunately the cappuccino for €5 was miserable.

Beautiful location, but unfortunately that’s it. The service left a lot to be desired - unfriendly, inattentive and without any appreciation for the guest. Empty glasses went unnoticed and there were no questions about food. Also disappointing from a culinary point of view: a braised beef shoulder that was dry and not very edible, and a fish dish that had both bones and a rubbery consistency. Given the prices and the standard of the house, we expected much more. Too bad!

Despite the appealing ambience and my high expectations of the restaurant, the service experience was extremely disappointing. The waitress was rude and showed a discriminatory attitude. When politely asked whether additional bread could be served, the response was condescending, “That costs money for us.” Although the taste of the food was convincing, the portions were clearly too small. When I pointed this out, I received the remarkable response: "If you don't like the portion size, you should never order here again." Thank you for this experience – definitely a last visit for me.

We had dinner at the Boathouse. The location is great. The service could be better. Unfortunately, it took forever to place our drink orders. The appetizer arrived at the same time as the drinks. The appetizer could have been held back a bit, as we waited 70 minutes for our dinner. Drinks always came quickly. The wine was delicious.

Top food in top riverview restaurant where you can enjoy exclelent food and watch the ships sail. Waiter Slim was the highlight of the evening interacting with us. Do get apple pie desert, it is the best!

A beautifully decorated restaurant with delicious food. Especially in summer with a great view outside. The wine list is highly recommended 😊

Certainly not recommended. Just disappointing. On our first visit at coffee time, the cake we ordered was brought long after coffee and only when asked. Today, March 16, 2025, coffee was brought at coffee time and no cake that was ordered was brought. But it was on the table receipt. With 6 service staff counted, no one felt called upon to bring the cake we ordered. We will not visit the boathouse again in the future. Once can happen, but twice is already sad. And what makes it even more difficult is that not a single word of regret was found. No corresponding word, such as sorry, that won't appear again.

Top location in the Mainz Marina with Michelin cuisine. Small but delicious menu at fair prices. Great wines, perfect for enjoying on the banks of the Rhine. Service a bit slow...

Very nice location with a great view. Unfortunately, that was pretty much it. Were there at 6 p.m. and were initially greeted with the fact that three dishes from the not-too-large menu were no longer available. After a bit of a wait, starters were gradually served over 20 minutes. Otherwise, we found the dishes to be significantly overpriced and sometimes served very carelessly for the high prices (sea bream for 2 people: €80!! On the plate there was a fillet without anything - see photo (to be fair, it tasted good) and a small bowl with 4 very small potatoes and a very small bowl with some sauce, which you then had to share). The raviolini also caused a lot of irritation. Atypical recipe and a mini portion. Overall, it's a shame.

Culinary excursion destination at the winter harbor The Bootshaus restaurant in the Mainz Rowing Club building is run by Frank Buchholz. Since the closure of the star restaurant in downtown Mainz, his sous chef has been cooking in the boat house. The kitchen offers a small selection of well-known kitchen classics and creative dishes, which are prepared with the best product quality and a high level of culinary craftsmanship. In the winter months, the terrace restaurant on the Victor-Hugo-Ufer directly on the Rhine and at the marina offers a warm, cozy dining room. The service is exceptionally attentive and friendly - we immediately felt at home. You should definitely try the bread basket with olive oil and spreads for an incredible 3 euros. The bread comes from Gonsenheim cult baker and bread sommelier Mario Peter Berg, who developed an incredibly delicious bread together with Frank Buchholz. It's nice that you can also buy it pre-baked so that you can enjoy it freshly baked and crispy at home. The tuna sashimi was perfect and clearly gourmet quality. My beef roulade on nut butter mashed potatoes and carrot vegetables was wonderful soul food. Housewife cuisine 2.0: A dish that has been familiar since childhood, prepared at a star level. The tender beef and the sensationally aromatic sauce were a dream - for me the perfect meal for a cold winter evening. For us, the visit to the boathouse was a culinary feel-good experience. Here the ambience, service and cuisine complement each other perfectly.

Today's lunch menu, roulade with red cabbage and mashed potatoes, tasted excellent. The carrot ginger soup was exceptional in terms of appearance and taste. The absolute hammer was the buttery tender “halved roulade”, which was cleverly placed on the mashed potatoes. The statement that it is a lunch menu is also not possible - it should at least be pointed out on the menu that it is only half a roulade. The beautiful ambience with a view of the Rhine reconciled us again. greeting Hans Gerd Holfeld

Chance makes it possible. Very, very nice service staff. A very tempting memory card. My steak was on point. I am impressed. Unfortunately it was already dark outside and there wasn't much to see of the banks of the Rhine. Not even from the mouth of the Main into the Rhine. But I'll get it at a warmer time of year. Thumbs up.

Tolle edle Sachen auf der Karte - was für ein schöner Abend.

Da hat alles gepasst - essen prima und hervorragender Service. Haben uns wohlgfühlt 👌🏻 Zwei von uns vieren waren zum ersten Mal da und kommen (auch) sicher gerne wieder !

Wie immer: sehr gut ! Vorzüglicher Service und anständiges Essen. Immer wieder gerne 🤙

It's been a few weeks since our visit and I've been struggling to find the right descriptive words ever since. A beautifully decorated restaurant; Located directly on the Rhine...certainly even more beautiful in summer. The reputation of the operator and the menu fuel the hope of a successful visit. One can expect that from a former star chef the simpler dishes on offer have a certain kick that elevates them above the usual level. As a reference, I have in mind the grape in Meddersheim (which has now changed ownership). What happens next can be summarized as follows: There is a lack of love! The food is delivered at a rapid pace, making for a relaxing evening. The food is only of an average standard, which has no correlation to the price charged. Only the cream of porcini mushroom soup showed that you definitely have what it takes to do more. You would be prosecuted in Belgium for the fries with the mussels. Overall, we didn't feel welcomed by either the service or the kitchen, which I regret. Everyone is blessed to have a happy time there, but we will save ourselves a 100km journey in the future. There's just a lack of love

Wir hatten eine fantastische Dorade, ein sehr gutes Steak und eine schmackhafte Roulade. Ziemlich lecker ist auch der Beilagensalat und der Wildkräutersalat zur Vorspeise. Alles sehr, sehr lecker! Unser Highlight war der Nachtisch: Apfeltarte! Wir fanden es sehr gemütlich und die Bedienung war top! Preis angemessen. Wir kommen gerne wieder! Dann esse ich die Muscheln ;-)

This was an excellent experience for the family on Christmas Day. The host Slim was very cordial and spoke English to us. The food was probably the best we’ve had in over a year. Wonderful pairings, meat that almost melted in our mouths it was so tender. I would definitely come back.

Very nice restaurant with a great view. The food was great and the staff was very nice and accommodating.

Das Essen war hervorragend und das Personal war sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Die Umgebung war ansprechend. Wir hatten einen schönen Abend.

We would like to thank the boathouse team for the great hours there. Starting with the great ambience with a beautiful view of the Rhine, through the attentive, very personal service to the extraordinary dishes, which were lovingly prepared down to the last detail. Pure enjoyment. A solid 5 out of 5 stars for our overall experience. Would love to come back.

We always wanted to go to the boathouse in Mainz and it wasn't the last time we were here. The food was excellent in a very nice atmosphere. The service was also courteous and attentive. We felt completely comfortable and are already looking forward to the next time.

We went to the boathouse for the first time on December 14, 2024 on the occasion of our family Christmas get-together and were completely thrilled! The inviting and tasteful ambience was very, very beautifully and attractively decorated for Christmas. The food was a show for us! All the dishes we ordered were consistently excellent, tasted at a top level, presented to the eye and no overloaded plates! The service was very attentive and very friendly. And last but not least: a super friendly and down-to-earth host who came to the tables, exchanged words and, if requested, was happy to take a photo together! That certainly wasn't the last time we were there, even though we had the longest journey from the Lower Rhine. Many thanks to Frank Buchholz and his entire team! You gave us a wonderful evening that we will remember very fondly!

Das Restaurant Bootshaus im Gebäude des Mainzer Rudervereins wird von Frank Buchholz betrieben. Seit der Schließung des Sternerestaurants in der Mainzer Innenstadt kocht sein Sous-Chef im Bootshaus. Die Küche bietet eine kleine Auswahl an bekannten Küchenklassikern und kreativen Gerichten, die auf bester Produktqualität und küchenhandwerklich hohem Niveau zubereitet werden. In den Wintermonaten bietet das Terrassenrestaurant am Victor-Hugo-Ufer direkt am Rhein und am Yachthafen einen warm-gemütlichen Gastraum. Der Service ist außergewöhnlich aufmerksam und freundlich - wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Unbedingt probieren sollten Sie den Brotkorb mit Olivenöl und Aufstrichen für unglaubliche 3 Euro. Das Brot stammt vom Gonsenheimer Kultbäcker und Brotsommelier Mario Peter Berg, der zusammen mit Frank Buchholz ein unglaublich leckeres Brot entwickelt hat. Schön, daß man es auch vorgebacken kaufen kann um es dann zuhause knusprig frisch aufgebacken zu genießen. Das Thunfisch-Sashimi war perfekt und hatte eindeutig Gourmetqualität. Meine Rinderroulade auf Nussbutter-Kartoffelpüree und Karottengemüse war wunderbares Soulfood. Hausfrauenküche 2.0: Ein seit Kindheitstagen vertrautes Gericht auf Sterneniveau zubereitet. Das zarte Rindfleisch und die sensationell aromatische Soße waren ein Traum - für mich das perfekte Essen für einen kalten Winterabend. Für uns war der Besuch im Bootshaus ein ein kulinarisches Wohlfühl-Erlebnis. Hier ergänzen sich Ambiente,Service und Küche perfekt.

Wir waren geschäftlich zu Besuch im Bootshaus Mainz. Die großartige Lage direkt am Rhein mit Blick auf den Winterhafen sorgt für eine entspannte und angenehme Atmosphäre. Im Sommer kann man dort toll an Tischen draußen direkt am Wasser sitzen. Die Speisen sind köstlich und das freundliche sowie sehr aufmerksame Personal sorgt dafür, dass man sich rundum wohlfühlt. Ein Besuch im Bootshaus ist definitiv eine Empfehlung für jeden, der gutes Essen mit einer aufregenden Aussicht genießen möchte.

Very expensive, even by current standards. There are no vegetarian or vegan dishes on the menu, but something is available upon request. Like in the 90s. The service was good and everyone enjoyed the food.

Naja, hätte man besser machen können. Schnellabfertigung (Aperitif, Vorspeise, Hauptspeise) unter einer Stunde - spricht nicht für gute Gastlichkeit. Personal sehr bemüht, was sich in der ständigen Unterbrechung unserer Unterhaltungen äussert. Amuse-Gueule Fehlanzeige. Vorspeise meines Mannes (Steinpilzsuppe) war sehr gut. Bei meiner Vorspeise (Burrata) habe ich den Ruccola abbestellt. Hat funktioniert, allerdings recht lieblos (aufgeschnittene Tomaten und Burrata, ohne Gewürz oder Deko auf einem wackelnden Teller serviert). Pfeffer, Salz und Öl dazu auf den Tisch gestellt. Hauptspeise ebenfalls lieblos serviert, geschmacklich ok, aber nichts Besonderes. Mein Mann hatte Moules frites, Muscheln geschmacklich ok, es gab Tiefkühlpommes dazu. Espresso lauwarm, noch. nicht mal ein kleiner Keks dazu Unsere Erwartung an gehobene Gastlichkeit zu diesen Preisen ist deutlich anders. Für zusammen EUR 120,00 kann ich woanders wesentlich besser, geschmackvoller und schöner angerichtet essen.

Wonderful restaurant in a wonderful location. The food was delicious and the location on the Rhine is simply beautiful!

We spontaneously went there for dinner today. The ambience was really nice, nothing can be said. The service was okay. The food wasn't justified for the price. A simple currywurst with fries €18 Porcini cream soup 16€ Happily. But the crowning glory was the toilet. You have to use the ones from the rowing association. This toilet was just dirty. In the truest sense of the word, shit was hanging on the lid. The wastebasket by the sink overflowed and there was paper everywhere. I then asked who was responsible for the toilets. I was told by the rowing association. So if I ran a place like that with prices like that, I would check the toilets every morning and evening. Other than that, it's a general thing to do.

Excellent experience! Thank you for the hospitality and delicious food. Definitely to repeat 🥰

Das Ambiente ist sehr angenehm, tolle Ausstattung. Unser Service von Joshua war einfach super und hat uns begeistert. Die Getränke kemen zügig und wurden richtig serviert, Speisen waren lecker endlich ein mal Steak richtig medium rear gebraten. Dazu noch Sensationell zart! Ich würde aber ein bisschen mehr Fenchel Gemüse zum Lachs anrichten. Hier dreht sich alles um Qualitat mit richtigem Service Gedanken dabei, etwas tolles anzubieten für die Gäste. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall gerne wieder!

Der Service war super, essen war sehr gut. Was uns gefehlt hat war das man eigentlich nur Salat und Suppe für Veganer hatte.., die Pasta waren sogar auch leider mit Fleisch .. da könnte man zumindest etwas verbessern. Ansonsten im Vergleich vor 2 Jahren .. es hat sich zum positiven entwickelt.. denn vor 2 Jahren waren wir da nicht so zufrieden und sind nicht mehr hingegangen. Jetzt werden wir aber wieder häufiger hingehen.

Really nice here 😍 Food is always delicious, service is great. Can only recommend it. There are also parking spaces in front of the front door. Today we ate fish, saddle of venison, rump steak and dessert. People like to go there too.

Rundum einfach ein toller Abend mit tollen Gastgebern und hervorragendem Essen

Not knowing Mainz pleasantly surprised by beautiful setting and ambiance of restaurant. Service friendly and very grateful all staff spoke English. Food very good. Will return for sure .

The cuisine in the restaurant, which is beautifully located on the Rhine, is excellent. The service knows its craft. How the current overall rating of 3.9 came about is a mystery to me.

We were there with a small party. Nice ambience, tasty food (although a bit expensive), not overly loud. But the service was subpar: unfriendly, arrogant, apparently in a bad mood. That doesn't work at all! The service is the flagship of a location. It can be so nice and the food can be so refined and delicious. If it is delivered in a rude manner, the whole evening will go down the drain. We won't be coming back!

Leider nur mittelmäßig - tolles Ambiente und super Service, aber das Essen kann nicht überzeugen. Und für das gebotene leider auch deutlich überteuert. Wir kommen leider nicht wieder.

Expensive but not well managed! A wine was missing and the boss personally filled it up (!). The starter didn't come and the dessert was also forgotten. The schnitzels lay carelessly on the plates and were quite tasteless, but there was all the salt on the fries. It's a shame for the really beautiful ambience on the Rhine. We are generally very sympathetic, but this was simply a poor performance for the high price.

Hip restaurant aan de jachthaven en de Rijn. Verrassende gerechten op de menukaart en een zeer uitgebreide wijnkaart met met name wijnen uit de regio. We hebben genoten!

Wie immer alles perfekt! Sehr tolles Ambiente, und leckeres Essen. Top Service.

Zum Mittagstisch eine wundervolle Tomatensuppe und im Anschluss einen super gebratenen Kabeljau auf Fenchelgemüse und in Butter angebratenen, ganzen Kartöffelchen gegessen. Wirklich sehr lecker! Schön zu sehen, dass alles auf neuen und nicht verlebten Tellern serviert wurde. Die Bedienung war sehr nett, aufmerksam und nicht steif. Das Mittagsmenü hat wieder einmal Spaß gemacht! Und das Preis -Leistungsverhältnis ist sehr gut. Einzig die Getränkepreise sind happig. Und der Flaschenpreis fürs Wasser Tendenz Frechheit! Fazit: Essen super gekocht und gut bedient worden. Bei den Getränken ist nur zugekauft und üppigs kalkuliert worden. Das ist das Einzige, das keine Meisterleistung ist.

The restaurant smelled very musty, which was very unpleasant. The plate was far too small for the food. Definitely nice to sit outside in the summer.

Nice here. Nice and relaxed. :) the food is also very tasty and they have great wines.

We have often heard about the boathouse and were finally able to get an impression for ourselves on Saturday, October 19th. We came especially from Mannheim and the slightly longer journey was very worth it. The food, ambience and the very courteous service absolutely convinced us. We'll definitely be back. It was a successful evening, thank you very much.

Extremely unfriendly and impolite!

Wir waren am 19.10.2024 das erste mal im Restaurant Boosthaus. Die gesamte Ambiente, das Personal und natürlich das Essen war perfekt. Die Qualiät hat uns überzeugt. Das Personal ist proffessionell und sehr freundlich, man fühlt sich sofort wohl! Großen Dank an die Mannschaft. Trotz der etwas längeren Anreise aus Mannheim kommen wir auf jeden Fall wieder.

Sehr schönes Ambiente, das Servicepersonal ist extrem freundlich, dabei locker und sorgt für eine sehr schöne, entspannte Atmosphäre. Wir haben den Abend sehr genossen.

Wie immer ein perfektes Dinner mit einem herrlichen Abend und einem leckeren Essen.

Great atmosphere with very tasty food. The service is super nice and helpful. We felt totally comfortable - our daughter was also well addressed by the service. We would love to come back!

Leider ist das Bootshaus auch nicht mehr das was es mal war. Zwar ist die Currywurst noch auf der Speisekarte, aber nicht mehr nach dem bewährten Buchholz-Rezept: jetzt ist die Sauce lasch, die Fritten strohig und die Wurst lauwarm. Letzteres liegt wohl auch daran, dass das Essen jetzt auf kalten Tellern serviert wird. Vermißt habe ich auch das abwechslungsreiche Tagesmenü, da standen 3 Gänge für jeden Wochentag mit einer anderen Zusammenstellung zur Auswahl.

Wir sind unter der Woche auf ein Mittagessen im Bootshaus gewesen, der reservierte Tisch stand bereit. Die Karte kam schnell, an sich eine gute Auswahl, jedoch für Vegetarier ungeeignet, eine einzige Auswahlmöglichkeit, alle anderen gedachten Optionen von der Vorspeise bis zum Dessert beinhalten irgendwo etwas tierisches (Parmesan, Gelatine,..). Für Vegetarier also nicht zu empfehlen, von veganen Optionen ganz zu schweigen. Das Essen kam zügig auf den Tisch, da wenig Gäste da. Anbei ein Bild des interessant gestalteten ‚Apfelstrudel 2.0‘ (jedoch wieder nicht für Vegetarier geeignet (Panna Cotta (Gelatine)). Mehr Aufmerksamkeit durch die Bedienung wäre wünschenswert (schauen, ob alles recht ist, Acht geben und im Auge haben, ob sich Gläser leeren, usw.) und nicht erst wieder zum abräumen der Teller auftauchen. Gemütlich war es leider nicht, die Raumtemperatur war einfach zu kühl, zudem war auf der einen Seite ein Oberlicht geöffnet. Der Toilettenbereich (im EG) war sauber, die Beleuchtung im Gang jedoch aus, also zu dunkel. Zur Rechnung war es plötzlich eine neue Bedienung, ein angekündigter Wechsel wäre ein feiner Zug. Wir verließen, wohlgemerkt ohne eine Verabschiedung durch das Personal, zwar satt, aber fröstelnd das Bootshaus und freuten uns auf die (Sitz-)Heizung im Auto. Wir kommen sicherlich wieder, und mit Sicherheit, wenn es wieder wärmer ist. Fazit: Ich kenne das Bootshaus seit der Eröffnung 2011, in den Anfangsjahren waren wir hier sehr oft, und es ist gefühlt nicht mehr das was es mal war. Es liegt hier auch sicherlich nicht „an den gestiegenen Anforderungen der Gäste“. Bedauerlicherweise gibt es das schöne Mittagsmenü schon lange nicht mehr. Insgesamt waren die Speisen geschmacklich gut, die Portionsgrößen gut, Preise noch in Ordnung, jedoch für die Gesamtleistung (von Ankunft bis Verlassen) zu hoch, in allen Kategorien 3 Sterne - Bewertungsnote Gut.

Sehr kleine Portion eines Nudelgerichts. Der Hinweis darauf wurde beantwortet: „wir wiegen immer genau 150g ab“. Für ein Hauptgericht für uns 20 Euro!!! Und ein Hinweis auf die 150g findet sich auch nicht auf der Speisekarte.

The service was wonderful, the food was delicious, and we loved the ambiance of the restaurant. It was upscale without being snobby.

Sehr empfehlenswert, sehr gutes Essen und hervorragender Service

Been there again - very tasty food in a nice atmosphere! Finally open again! Simply a great local with a great place at the back left of the window with a view of the Rhine

Coffee was overpriced at 4.50 euros and latte macchiato 5.00 euros (1/4 of the glass of liquid, the rest was frothed milk, at the neighboring tables all the latte macchiato had a different filling volume - price performance in my opinion was not met). I'm willing to pay 5.00 euros for a good latte macchiato, but not if it barely contains any coffee. The waitress didn't know what kind of coffee she was serving - whether the coffee was with or without milk - and she didn't seem to care or care. At the end we were asked for our opinion. The prices would be set from above and the work on the barista machine would result in different filling volumes. Any kind of ability to criticize, for example that perhaps at least the different filling volume is not acceptable, is not available. In summary - I certainly won't be coming back.

Beautiful ambience with a view of the winter harbor, super nice staff and very tasty food

Yesterday we were a small wedding party and had lunch here. A nice location, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We ate a' la carte and everything was excellent.

Very expensive and unfriendly staff. Not recommended.

Wie schon einige Wochen zuvor, wo wir draußen saßen, was uns etwas besser gefällt, war es auch diesmal wieder ein wunderschöner Abend. Ein großes Dankeschön geht an die Service-Mitarbeiter, besonders an Philipp!!! Natürlich war auch das Essen sensationell, wir kommen auf jeden Fall bald wieder.

Ein sehr schönes Ambiente, aber Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, was das Essen angeht, Katastrophe

From the moment we entered Bootshaus Mainz we were amazed by the warm welcome and the breathtaking views. The atmosphere of the restaurant is inviting and perfect for a romantic dinner or a social gathering with friends. The food was a true taste experience - from the freshly prepared starters to the artfully presented main courses. The freshly caught fish, which was cooked to perfection, is particularly recommended. We were also impressed by the wine selection, with an excellent selection of local and international wines. The service was attentive and professional, and the staff always made sure we didn't miss anything. We will definitely be back and can recommend Bootshaus Mainz to anyone looking for a high quality dining experience in a fantastic location!

The food was very tasty and all the staffs were attentive and friendly. The atmosphere of the restaurant was cosy and lovely and it’s got a nice interior. Would love to come again!

Toller Service , schöner Ausblick und sehr leckeres Essen

We were there as a family and had reserved in advance. The staff really fulfills every wish. The food is excellent. We can only recommend it.

Delicious food and great service in a beautiful setting by the river! Thank you!

Dank für einen traumhaften Abend! Alles perfekt und super lecker!

Wir wollten unsere standesamtliche Hochzeit hier feiern. Waren einmal da um zu probieren, ob uns das Essen schmeckt. Zu dem Zeitpunkt waren wir schon nicht überzeugt vom Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis, dennoch war das Essen lecker. Auch der Service war nur okay und die Dame, die uns bediente nicht gerade freundlich. Die Lage und die schöne Aussicht war für uns der Hauptgrund ins Bootshaus zu gehen. Der Kontakt zur Vereinbarung unsere Feier war dann so katastrophal und unfreundlich, das wir unsere Reservierung schlussendlich storniert haben und uns ein anderes Restaurant für unseren Hochzeitstag gesucht haben. Schwer zu sagen ob das Restaurant nicht auf Gäste angewiesen ist oder wir unser Geld nicht zur Schau tragen, aber so möchten wir nicht behandelt werden.

Chic Micki... Poor price performance. Nothing special. Not worth it.

Toller Service, tolle Lage, sehr gutes und frisches Essen, schön eingerichtet, wir haben uns Wohl gefühlt.

Unfortunately, the boathouse did not change for the better after it reopened. We waited over 1.5 hours between the starter and the main course and only got the latter when we asked. The main course (agnoli) was so little that the price of over 20 euros was not convincing despite the good taste. It's a real shame because you're sitting there beautifully on the Rhine. Unfortunately, the boathouse can't (anymore) score points with more.

Location einfach super. Zwei Punkte können verbessert werden: 1. Mehr KFZ-Parkplätze in unmittelbarer Nähe. 2. Spielplatz für Kleinkinder. Der Service war okay. Aber bitte den Espresso nicht mit dem Nachtisch, sondern danach servieren. Kalter Espresso ist nicht jedermanns Sache. Eine Tagessuppe, wenn Sie angeboten wird, bestelle ich immer. Wärmt den Magen und überbrückt die Zeit bis das Hauptgericht serviert wird.

Sehr freundlicher Service! Speisen sehr lecker und sehr hübsch angerichtet! Schönes Ambiente....wir kommen wieder!

Yesterday we were in the boathouse again for a long time... I briefly told our dear waitress Joshua that it was our wedding anniversary. Later I wanted to go to the toilet and the manager slim said that wasn't possible now and I should go back to my seat. Irritated, I did so and then Joshua and slim came to us with a bottle of champagne and two different very delicious desserts... congratulated us on our wedding anniversary. We were speechless!!!Where else can you find something like that???? Dear ones....thank you very much again. That was really the best wedding day because we never expected anything like that. LG. Susanne and Achim

There is no better place to sit outdoors. Especially when the weather is bad. Heater. Blanket. Campfire. Everything is there.

We were completely happy: we visited the boathouse with our dog at 1:30 p.m. (with a table reservation). We were warmly welcomed, service was quick, uncomplicated, very attentive at all times and simply super friendly. the dog was immediately given a bowl of water (thank you very much!). The ambience is very harmonious, comfortable and casual-chic. We felt very comfortable. Food and drinks were also of great quality and came quite quickly (despite the terrace being quite busy). In terms of price, however, you are playing at the upper limit here. But if everything else goes well, we'll turn a blind eye to it. Unfortunately we cannot be regular guests at Bootshaus Mainz as we live a good 1.5 hours away. Really a shame!

Very nicely located at the winter harbor. Staff except one, inattentive, disinterested and slow. On the board on the way there is a beer for €5, on the menu it is €6.50... the food is really tasty, but pikeperch for €30 and everyone is still hungry... so bring enough money and patience.

A beautiful setting and great food. Sit on the patio, with views of the Rhine and local harbor. Very well prepared meal, and friendly service.

Very friendly staff, delicious drinks.

*Poor price-performance *Food & service with little heart and soul* We went there for the first time with friends. The location is beautifully located on the Rhine, with an appealing ambience. Seeing and being seen is the motto here. This is probably also the reason for the sporty prices. For the money we would have expected perfectly tasted dishes, nicely presented and hot, unfortunately they were only mediocre in taste and the food was lukewarm. In fact, unfortunately it wasn't very special and we were disappointed by the highly advertised location. Unfortunately, the service that evening was neither attentive nor very friendly; we kept having to wait longer and wave at the service staff when our drinks were empty in order to be noticed. When we visited, the boathouse didn't live up to its reputation, which was a shame. Conclusion: In many restaurants in/around Mainz there is much better food with attention to detail, with passion, and at a significantly better price-performance ratio. We will not be visiting the boathouse again.

I called and asked if we could use the boathouse dock for a special occasion. Mr. Buchholz was so unfriendly that I was really horrified. The very short, brusque phone call ended with the sentence: "I think it's a shame for you too." With a cynical undertone. What I find very sad as a former customer and Mainz resident is that this restaurant in a very beautiful location on the Rhine was leased to someone who doesn't know what hospitality means. You always feel that when you are there. Everything seems tense and the mood is often bad. No wonder with the boss and really a shame for Mainz.

Vielen Dank für den schönen Abend, das sehr leckere Essen und den sehr zukommenden und gastorientierten Service

We took a day trip to Mainz from Bingen; We really wanted to experience Frank Buchholz’s Bootshaus Mainz! It was absolutely worth it! We ate the lamb shank - absolutely amazing! Service very friendly and attentive. Still not aloof, everything very down to earth, price-performance ratio absolutely fine! Always my pleasure. Absolute recommendation. P.S. The patron was there too! A tiny criticism: our starter came with the main meal, but the wine with the meal came a little later. The timing could be a little better! But it didn't influence our absolutely positive impression.

Lage schön, Ambiente sehr angenehm, Empfang freundlich und professionell, Getränkeauswahl ok, Essen mittelmäßig in Qualität und Präsentation, Preis-Leistungsverhältnis weit auseinander, Service persönlich angenehm, im Verhalten in Richtung Servilität, gefühlt so geschult und angeleitet.

Nice location. Very good cake, cappuccino could be a little bigger for the price, but tasted good. Unfortunately the cake arrived about 15 minutes after the cappuccino; The organization should be improved here. Service very friendly.

Personal 👍👍👍👍👍 Ambiente 👍👍👍👍 Essen 👍👍👍👍 Wein überteuert, mitten im Weinanbaugebiet, geht sowas eigentlich nicht ... ich weiß die Winzer, aber es gibt hunderte andere Weingüter mit tollen Weinen für normales gutes Geld 💰 🤌🤯🙏🏻

We spent a few lovely hours in the boathouse on the occasion of my husband's 🎂 birthday 🚹 and just found it *goosebumps* beautiful 😉 Location, ambience, service, food...everything is perfect. The sung happy birthday serenade with cupcakes, prosecco, great employees and super relaxed Frank Buchholz (he's just as nice as he is on TV) was particularly great, ❤️ and absolutely not a given What a loving gesture. Thank you...we'll be back 😀

Food great, service great, but unfortunately the jet ski and sports boat madness that is now raging on the Rhine completely destroyed the evening in the actually very beautiful outdoor area. You feel like you're at a V8 meeting and motorcycle Grand Prix at the same time. The noise is simply unbearable!

Great restaurant in a beautiful place Location. We'd love to come there. A little more expensive but tasty food. The service is great and the employees are nice.

Immer wieder gerne zu Gast im Bootshaus und Danke an Service und Frank 👌

Wir, vier verwöhnte und anspruchsvolle Restaurantbesucher, waren völlig begeistert, von dem netten Empfang, der lockeren Atmosphäre, dem aufmerksamen Service und nicht zuletzt dem hervorragenden Essen. Wir bedanken uns beim gesamten Team und kommen auf jeden Fall bald wieder.

Taffelwasser 4€. Warum? Ich weiß nicht. Ein Glass. Das war nicht elegant.

Das Essen im Bootshaus war gut, haben leider sehr lange darauf gewartet. Die Bedienung hat meinen Mann und mich nicht wirklich ernst genommen und hat den Fokus auf „reicher aussehende“ Kunden gelegt und uns auf einen schlechten Platz trotz Reservierung gesetzt. Hab mir etwas mehr erhofft und bin leider sehr enttäuscht worden.

Good food with a beautiful view of the Rhine and a modern ambience. Unfortunately very expensive.

Unfortunately the food didn't come and we left after almost two hours

Nice upscale atmosphere, friendly service. Very sporty prices, currywurst/chips 18.00 euros..

We stopped here while passing through by bike. Ambiance and food ok. Prices a bit sporty (currywurst with French fries EUR 18)
