Im Original Köndringen in Teningen

I ordered schnitzel with fried potatoes. The food was good, but the portion was far too small. With children's plates you often get larger portions. I was also given the choice when ordering whether I would prefer gravy or cream sauce. This selection would ultimately be billed at €1.50.

Exceptional restaurant! Pleasant and good dishes, cocktails, salads, starters and main courses and much more... A great and beautiful establishment. I can only recommend it.

The food was delicious as always, although the salad arrived at the same time as the main course. We give the food 5 stars! Unfortunately, we were given a table near the entrance, and a cold draft came through the open door. We asked the blonde waitress if it would be possible to close the door and received a rude "Yes." Nothing happened. Later, the friendly waiter closed the door after our repeated requests. It was generally uncomfortably cold; at several tables, women were sitting in jackets. As the place emptied, the women at the table next to us, like us, moved to the back. Unfortunately, this didn't help much. It was just cold and uncomfortable! I can only recommend dressing warmly! Due to the uncomfortably cold, I can unfortunately only give the otherwise lovely ambiance 3 stars. We also mentioned this to the blonde waitress, simply as a friendly reminder to perhaps consider a solution for the cold problem in the future, as many guests were obviously freezing, and were again "served" with a rude response. Since it was a business dinner, my colleague asked for a separate receipt when paying. Apparently, the blonde waitress hadn't heard my colleague say this and only brought mine to me. When my colleague politely addressed the waitress about it, she repeatedly snapped at her! This kind of behavior is completely unacceptable!!!! This waitress, and thus the service, unfortunately only receives one star! Reservations by recorded delivery aren't my cup of tea; I prefer the personal touch...

The food and service were good. The decor, however, has seen better days.

We haven't been here for over a year now. Reason: we were no longer satisfied with the food (especially in terms of the portions). The large salads almost never had enough side dishes for the value for money. Yesterday we were surprised: there was plenty of fish on the Corsica salad and the portion was perfect. We were also thrilled by the waitresses: the shop was packed, not a single table was free and only three waitresses rocked the shop. The bartender in particular didn't stand still for a second and worked as hard as he could, as we could see at the counters 👍🏻

Feel-good atmosphere with good food and first-class service, always happy...

I had breakfast here again today. It's always been good. I always eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes and cheese there. Today, unfortunately, it was too runny for me. I asked the "chef" if he could quickly fry it again. The look on his face was priceless. He rolled his eyes, shook his head, and reluctantly put it back on the grill. Sorry, I didn't ask anything impossible of him. I was served it again, but it was just bad. Luckily, the staff is always friendly. With an open kitchen, a "chef" like that shouldn't be visible to guests. Especially if they look very unkempt.

The service was very nice and attentive, the food was consistently good. I'd love to come back.

Always a good address! Food and service are great. The ambience with the Mediterranean flair and the many beautiful plants is unique.

small selection of “typical” breakfast dishes. Nothing special, no bowls or vegan alternatives. Milk alternatives would have been good. Ham, cheese, sausage, rolls, muesli... everything was delicious. :)

Great ambience, nice friendly service, very good food, something for everyone. Very good price-performance ratio. It's better to reserve a place in advance.

The salads are really huge and very tasty. The atmosphere is very cozy, we often come here not only to eat something but also to drink an aperitif. By the way, the limos are also highly recommended.

A highly recommended restaurant

It's been a long time since I was last here. Great service and very tasty food. I think the ambience is great, but people sit on top of each other a lot.

We were very satisfied, Food wonderful.👍 Definitely a recommendation.

Rating: ⭐☆☆☆☆ I was really disappointed with my visit to the original in Köntringen. The service left a lot to be desired - unfriendly and not very attentive. The food was served cold, which completely spoiled the enjoyment. A particularly unpleasant incident occurred when an employee scratched her ear with her little finger during service and then touched the bread with her bare hands without gloves or a bread towel. An absolute no-go in the catering industry! Overall, the visit was disappointing and I definitely cannot recommend the restaurant.

Very friendly staff and delicious food. Always my pleasure.

Location was great, we sat on the outside in the window. Very busy, but the service was still good! Fast, snappy, not intrusive. Food and drinks were consistently good. The menu offers a wide selection - everyone will find something here. Gladly again.

We had a wonderful evening this evening with excellent food. Reservation was good because it was a full house on Sunday evening. Still a pleasant atmosphere. The kitchen, service and barman do a great job here. My salmon was fried juicy, the salad was crisp and my drink request was fulfilled immediately and tasty. Were here for the first time but would love to come back.

Reservation only via tape recording, I wasn't sure if it worked. Nice decoration but the restaurant overall is too cool. The waiters seem slightly overwhelmed. The meat was overcooked. The tarte flambée was already a bit cool. The waiter cleaned up the plates before everyone had finished eating

Beautiful decoration for Valentine's Day and a rose for every woman. That was very thoughtful. Food was delicious and very attractively prepared. Service very attentive. We felt comfortable and had a lovely evening 😍😍

Great ambience, excellent and attentive service, delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere 😊 We'd love to come back

The meal or starter from my companion and I came almost at the same time as the main course. Which isn't a bad thing with a salad, but it's quite annoying with the soup, which of course gets cold. It may have been because we ordered online at the table, or maybe we did something wrong here. The function itself is very cool because you can then pay online straight away when you're done. The food was great, the atmosphere was cozy. The two tables are perhaps a little too close to other guests. You could leave a little more space for privacy. Otherwise everything was great.

The food and also the homemade lemonade were very tasty! Extra requests for food were no problem. The service employee is an absolute stroke of luck and exudes a good mood, so that you immediately feel at home! We'd love to come back!

Staff very friendly and helpful. Food is good with some room for improvement. But criticism is accepted constructively and implemented immediately as far as possible. Gladly again.

The quality of the food has deteriorated greatly. Pasta dishes were only lukewarm, watery spagettini.

Nice restaurant, special ambience and good food. Was a random stopover on the way to France. I can only recommend it

Food was subpar. Sorry but so loveless and overpriced. Service was very attentive. Ambience cold. Feeling good is written in small letters.

A real experience Reservation is recommended

I've been there four or five times because it's right next to my place of work. But every time you are disappointed again. Ambience really nice, no question. But service sometimes takes more than an hour for a drink - an absolute disaster. Poor quality food that is prepared better in every fast food restaurant. Fried potatoes float in 5 cm of oil. Avoid vegetables completely. Meat so small that you can hardly find it on the plate. If tarte flambée is the only dish that tastes reasonably good, at least the prices should be reasonable. But they are also far too high. If the price-performance ratio was at least right, I wouldn't say anything about a salad for €15-18, but a handful of lettuce leaves that look like they're already a week old, no thanks, isn't possible at all.

Reasonable prices for delicious food, very friendly staff, nice atmosphere.

I don't understand some of the reviews. I was there twice about two years ago. I was also disappointed by what I read. I've now been able to convince myself of it again. My husband had fish. I rum steak. The food tasted great and was beautifully prepared. Condition could smile more. It could also be that it was new. Nice furnishings. As I know it. The only thing I found annoying was that the table was too small. We ordered food with salad and a bottle of wine and water. There was no longer any room for the food on the table. Maybe another solution would be better. But I would definitely recommend this restaurant. We were very satisfied And I would recommend not giving too much attention to the bad reviews. See for yourself. And if nothing works, talk to the service responsible first before giving bad reviews

Everything fine. Great service, great food and a very nice atmosphere. We were very satisfied.

We had lamb's lettuce. The dressing was good, as was the bread. Unfortunately, the lamb's lettuce was neither of good quality nor was it properly cleaned.

I think it's a shame to use such a rude team for such a beautiful location. I can get spin service cheaper...

Nice, not exactly cheap but wide choice and good dishes.

Nice evening, good food and fine drinks, very pleasant and quick service.

Really nice atmosphere, value for money for food and drinks really good here in the region. Unfortunately, 2 stars deducted because there is no lactose-free milk or milk alternatives. In my opinion, this is now a must because it really affects a lot of people. You don't have to have the entire selection, but at least one should be standard. Especially since many dishes are also labeled “vegan”.

We were there on New Year's Eve. In the chalet. Was very quaint. The menu with fondue was very tasty and had exactly the right portion.

The original is highly recommended. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and you can express any wish and if possible it will be implemented. The ambience, especially in the evening with the lights, is a cozy, beautiful atmosphere. The breakfast offer is very inviting. The menu in general is a journey for the palate. Anyone who has ever been to the ORIGINAL will always be happy to come back. We the Schöpflin / Boos family definitely do

Very great atmosphere. Fast and friendly service. Food delicious. Recommended

Was there today for the first time, and according to my partner, also for the last time. So let's start at the beginning, the entrance towards the parking lot is a really high curb, a small warung would be quite good. Then came into the restaurant, it was still very empty. You were still served well there. Then ordered 2 starters, although one (the goulash soup) was already out. Sorry, we're talking about a Sunday. Then say that in advance if you give her a ticket then it's ok, but saying it's sold out now isn't good. Then came the appetizer of lamb's lettuce with bacon and crackers. The taste is ok, but the price/performance is subpar. Given the quantity, a price of €5 would be appropriate. Ah, in between my beer was empty, I tried to order a new one by saying sorry, sorry or pointing at my empty glass. Unfortunately I was just ignored. Then ordered from the other waitress, who just replied, “It has to be that way, then we’ll get confused with the tables, really now?” The guest's problem? I do not think so. Well the good thing was, the beer still came. Then for the main course, tarte flambée with pinsa dough and rump steak with fries. You almost had to look for the tarte flambée on the board. The portion was very small, hardly any toppings and all for just under €16. Here again the price/performance is below ground, for the size max 10€ even with Pinsa dough. For the rump steak, ordered medium, got medium. The fries were really good, they were probably homemade. The rump steak was done well, but it was a bit cool. So that the last quarter of the steak was just cold when I ate it. And I definitely didn't eat slowly. Another thing we noticed is that there is a cat running around in the restaurant, is that necessary? Personally, I am allergic to cat hair, sorry that my mood drops as soon as I spot a cat eating. But we are talking about a restaurant here and not an open terrace.

Quite okay. Were in transit. To be honest, we wouldn't dine there again.

Top. Excellent food. Top service. It doesn't get any better.

Food tasted good, service was bad. 30 minutes after the first main course came, the other four came. And after 20 minutes the last.

Unfortunately the food was cold

We were looking for a place where we could eat comfortably and "normally" a la carte and found it. Food was super tasty. Service very friendly and professional. Ambience pleasantly quiet. No overpriced New Year's Eve menu. We will recommend and use this offer for next New Year's Eve. Thank you for this lovely evening. LG F. Strusch

Ambience something different. Food Disappointing New Year's Eve menu: Nut salad very fine, large portion. Cheese fondu (flavorless flour paste. With disastrous bread) Tiramisu taste OK but otherwise just embarrassing. And that for 68 euros. Sorry, just embarrassing for gastronomy. Dirty and broken dishes. Waiting for drinks for an hour. Or not get it at all. You'll look in vain for festive decorations. A tip for next time. Something to grab on the table or offer. A menu or drinks menu without normal prices is disappointing when you see what the food actually costs, even for that it's too expensive. A little decko on the dessert Oh yes, cheese fondue should also taste like cheese and not like flour mush. Bread with taste, but preferably a day old. Tastes better. And a few nice words from the boss or employee wouldn't be bad either. And music is a matter of taste, but it can definitely be done better. I can also give you help privately. Just get in touch ;-)

Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Abend mit der Familie und einem sehr sehr leckeren Essen. Fünf verschiedene Essen und jeder war begeistert! Sehr empfehlenswert! Freundliche unkomplizierte Bedienung trotz vollem Haus und dann werden wir auch die Desserts probieren!

Food was excellent, tasted great, Unfortunately there were 2 stones in the lamb's lettuce, the second stone was so big that a piece of my tooth broke off. Therefore only 3 stars. Service and ambience top!

As usual, it was just great! 😃 Service was super friendly 😊, the food was very tasty, whether it was a starter (soup) or a main course! 🤤 Even if I'm "only" there irregularly, I'll be back at any time!!! Simply to recommend. Here: "Thumbs up" ... 👍

A pleasant atmosphere in the glass house! I liked the food. I would recommend this restaurant at any time.

My wife and I have been there four times now and each time we had to wait up to 30 minutes for the drinks to be taken and the food after an hour!! Never again, the owner is very snooty and arrogant. Ambience is great but with such staff I would rather have a picnic.

Very pleasant atmosphere, very cozy, something different. Good selection of food and drinks. Something for every taste. Food was very good, there were four of us, four different dishes, nothing to complain about. Everything tasted great. You definitely have to try the tarte flambée. Also the pasta dishes... = again at any time. All in all, you can recommend this restaurant with a clear conscience. I would definitely recommend making a reservation. Thank you for a very pleasant evening.

Unfortunately the food was cold? Because it was in the pick-up station for too long. It. True. Everything is pretty boring. Schnitzel fries

Always nice, we'd love to come back.

I like it very much. Really a nice atmosphere and the staff are always very friendly. Recommended

Great service. Thank you! Gladly again!

After another visit or two I may well rate this restaurant 5 Stars. It is very impressive in its greenhouse setting. Informal and very welcoming, staffed by attentive and polite young people who invariably speak English. An extensive and modern menu, with very good prices. I can say that the Carpaccio is as good as any I've had, and the others all enjoyed their meals as well. Highly recommended. **UPDATE 2023** Im Original remains very good. Not five-stars but certainly four. This is a busy, popular place. Through the week one can likely get a table without a reservation but likely not on a weekend. The staff is so busy when the restaurant is full that you will be ignored if you stand at the door and wait for someone to tell you there's no free table. The menu is unchanged for some years but it is a varied combination of trendy dishes and some regional (like flammenkuchen). Prices are good.

We stayed in chalet: Unfortunately the cheese fondue was very bad. Hardly any cheese but a lot of sauce thickener. Really without any relation to a real cheese fondue. You had to fish out the added mushrooms with a spoon because it was so thin. Tasted like a thick, creamy cheese sauce. But not a single string of cheese showed up!!! According to many other reviews, it was almost to be expected that the reservation didn't work out properly. At least we were treated to an aperitif on the house. Cozy atmosphere, but what's the point if there's only cheese fondue.... Please don't skimp on the cheese, it'll be fine!

It was a spontaneous visit on a Sunday. The food was very tasty and the service was also great. We would like to come back.

Das Ambiente in der großen Glashalle ist ganz nett. Das mediterrane Getue ist allerdings FAKE. Wenn selbst die einheimischen und die Carte dominierenden Bratkartoffeln verbrannt, und das Hirschragout der Tageskarte lauwarm auf eiskaltem Teller serviert wird, möchte man dem Chef de la cuisine dann doch nur noch eine qualifizierte Umschulung zu Lasten der Rentenversicherung empfehlen. Die Organisation dieses Betriebes ist chaotisch, die Wartezeiten waren bei mehreren Besuchen IMMER zu lang.

Reservation and confirmation work great. I also find the reminder helpful. Service and food were - as always - very good. Since our table was right next to the window panes/doors to the outside area, it was very drafty and relatively cool.

Very nice and cozy restaurant. The service was top notch and mastered her craft. The food looked and tasted excellent. The only drawback was the building (doors), where there was quite a draft. Not comfortable for staying for a long time. It's a shame, this distorts the overall picture a little.

Delicious food, great ambience and good service, super nice

I love this restaurant 💕 I've enjoyed going there for years. No matter whether it's a special occasion or just because, you can drink a glass of wine and eat a snack with your girlfriend. I also think the prices here are okay given today's conditions. Very friendly service 👍 not intrusive but always there when you need it. Always suitable dishes for different seasons. Now delicious chanterelles in different variations. Flammkuchen or 🍝😋 I definitely recommend 👌

Always nice there. Lots of plants, good selection of seasonal specialties and the prices are right! I have nothing to complain about.

Super nice setting and delicious food! Not expensive at all!

Relaxed atmosphere, good food, very friendly staff. I will definitely come back

Leider war das Essen mal wieder weder lecker noch liebevoll zubereitet, obwohl wenig los war. Das war definitiv unser letzter Versuch "Im Original". Sehr schade, weil die Räumlichkeiten eigentlich nett sind

Some reviewers incorrectly write that it was a great idea to convert a greenhouse into a restaurant. The "Vinolivio" as the "Im Original" used to be called was never a greenhouse, but was built specifically as a restaurant. As far as I know, there was/is a counterpart in Schallstadt and Hohberg. The design all around is great, as is the outdoor area Very nice. The service was always good during my stays, the food was always great. I think the lamb's lettuce is particularly good here, although I don't think the name is particularly good Recommend. Also ideal for coffee and cake. The cakes taste very good. The continuous opening times are great, as almost everything else in EM is now crying out for renovation somehow not to the rest of the house.

Nice ambience. Very good food. Reasonable prices.Very friendly staff

It was a very nice and cozy evening

The original is actually an original. The food here is consistently very good. If this is not the case, an attempt will be made to remedy the situation immediately. Which of course is not calculated. I can fully recommend the restaurant. I wish everyone a pleasant stay. 👍👍👍👍👍

What lovely people who work here ❤️ Thank you, thank you, thank you

Nice ambience and good food. In the past, there has often been poor service in the form of queries as to whether anything else is needed, drinks are wanted, etc. + long waiting times for the food. On the last visit, however, the staff were very attentive and there was only a short waiting time for the food - it should stay that way, then you'll come back more often!

When the sun is shining you can sit in the sun, and the house is also beautifully designed. The food is good, the bread wasn't good for a while, that's changed :-)

That really doesn't work. Apparently they had too much success and now think they can rest on their laurels. Opening hours until midnight on Saturday. At 10:30 p.m. it was not possible to get ice cream or coffee. The bill was brought to us at 10:50 p.m. and 20 minutes later all the staff were gone. Opening hours until midnight? Kitchen until 11 p.m.? We won't be back that quickly. Luckily there are others Unfortunately we went back yesterday. If you order a KiBa and a bottle is empty, of course no new one will be opened for you. Simply fill half the glass with ice and cherry juice. I let the glass go back. When it came back the ice cream was gone and well stirred. Not much banana juice was made pure. Due to the lack of ice, it was completely at room temperature. So the bottles are not even stored in the refrigerator. People are also saving more and more on food. The portions are okay, but please don't expect too much cheese in the cheese sauce or even enough sauce to cover all the pasta. In addition, all the food came lukewarm. But when paying by card at the end, the tip was carefully pointed out.

Sehr freundliche und schnelle Bedienung, gute Auswahl an Speisen (u.a. Flammkuchen, Rumpsteak). Wer's noch eiliger hat kann auch einen QR Code am Tisch scannen und über's Smartphone bestellen. Wir kommen gerne hier vorbei, wenn wir mal in der Gegend sind.

Never again. We were just there and wanted to order two tarte flambées to take away. Today was the second time we were expelled. Apparently too busy for that To prepare food ToGo. But on site it means less work or what?!? Sorry but the service and friendliness urgently needs to be worked on. One star is already too many.

Wir haben kurzfristig reserviert und wurden sehr herzlich empfangen. Trotz vieler Gäste war das Personal sehr freundlich, sehr zuvorkommend, bestens organisiert und wirkte nicht gestresst . In der Küche wurde sogar noch ein Lehrling geduldig eingewiesen. Das Essen hat vorzüglich geschmeckt und es waren richtig große Portionen. Tolle Atmosphäre, super Service, geniales Essen! Vielen Dank an alle!!!

Nothing to say, fast, efficient, fair price

The atmosphere is very nice and I really liked it. However, we had to wait 1.5 hours for our lunch. The taste of the food was okay but not above average. The portions of schnitzel with fries were rather small.

We wanted to have lunch and sat outside, where we were ignored for 20 minutes, even though we were clearly noticed. We were looked at several times, but it was more important to clear the tables and sort the parmesan! We weren't even made aware that there might only be service inside... unfortunately, it's a shame and disappointing! When more guests sat down at any table inside and were served straight away, we left. Unfortunately, we can't rate the ambience or the food because we didn't even get the chance to do so.

Nice atmosphere - generous portions - great attentive service - breakfast is fun

Great ambience, very tasty food. Simply to feel good

Delicious! (Steak Cafe de Paris, very tasty fries), very friendly, very modern (order at the table via app), very fast, nice ambience, parking - what more could you want :)

We went to this restaurant for dinner with a group of 5 people. The service was very quick, nice and professional. The food was very good and the price-performance ratio was perfectly fine. The ambience was very nice and the temperature in the restaurant was optimal. I'm writing this because we were very unsure about even visiting this restaurant because of the bad reviews online. Conclusion: We would love to come back

Delicious. Great chef, worth his weight in gold, conjures up delicious food.

Beautiful place. Service and food very good.

Super friendly service and quickly prepared food👍🏼👌🏼

Nice ambience, food ok Unfriendly staff! We waited two hours for our food! Tables that came after us got their food before us. When we asked where our food was, the waitress said in an unfriendly, stressed tone "she wouldn't stand in the kitchen and cook, there would be a lot going on and we could leave if we didn't like it" That's not how you treat customers! That was the first time we didn't tip a cent! For a mid-priced restaurant, the staff should also be friendly - even if it's busy It's a shame - things were different here

Very nice restaurant, very tasty food and good service at reasonable prices, gladly again.

Nice location. Food was delicious. Dogs are also welcome here. Gladly again

Location is deceiving! 2 stars for the beautiful location 🌴 and that's it! Already in the entrance area you can only feel the bad mood of the service staff: the service was unfriendly towards us, probably because we didn't make a reservation. Since there didn't seem to be any tables left, we were allowed to sit at the counter and the waitress would let us know as soon as a table became available. We waited 60 minutes because the waitress had “intentionally” forgotten about us, even though we had drawn our attention several times and asked! When we got upset and angry, we finally got a table, a table that was flooded with cleaning water (the menus were soggy). The food is okay but not of good quality, the meat dishes are too small. You get a mini bowl of brown water as a sauce!🤢 I can do the tarte flambée better at home😁 A tip is also required (brazenness), I deliberately didn't give one for such poor service. That's why I absolutely cannot recommend the restaurant for eating, it's ok for drinking: you can't get drunk with so much ice in your drinks😉...

The food is very tasty, the service leaves nothing to be desired. We like to come to the restaurant often.

I'm a fairly regular customer at this restaurant and I'm increasingly disappointed. On Wednesday the 22nd I was there with two customers at around 1:30 p.m. We sat on the terrace and after 20 minutes no one came to us even though the waitress saw us outside. So I went in to ask and was told they don't serve on the patio! We then decided to eat inside and at the end it felt like the waitress was waiting for a tip. I'm sorry, but I'm very disappointed that even though the waitress saw us waiting outside, she didn't bother to serve us or tell us that the patio was closed.

The tarte flambée and the spaghetti were not only lukewarm, but also had no outstanding taste. The waiting time of 50 minutes was unreasonable.

Very nice glass house style restaurant with large parking lot and large outdoor seating area. Very comfortable to relax in. The menu is very large and varied, everyone will find something to suit their taste.

Friendly team. Very tasty food. Cozy atmosphere. We would love to come back again.😉
