P. Röttger in Emmerich am Rhein

We were there for the candlelight dinner on Valentine's Day. We didn't find the atmosphere nice at all. The service was very slow and placed the plates on the table very “roughly”. The food was good, although game wasn't my taste.

Again and again very delicious 😍

The Sunday before last, the two of us had the pleasure of enjoying a late lunch at the Ratsstuben Elten. This meant we were able to spontaneously reserve a table, as the restaurant is usually fully booked during peak hours. The hostess, Manuela Winkelmann, always tries to find a spot. But that doesn't always work out. Late reservations can sometimes be unlucky. We had a mushroom pan, which was very tasty. It was served rustically in a cast-iron pan on a wooden board. The portion is generous and filling. The side salad that was ordered with it is almost a course in itself, which, based on the hostess's recommendation, is better shared between two people rather than everyone ordering one. Thank you for the kind tip. The salad was delicious and varied. The homemade Sauerbraten "Rhenish Style" with a dark sweet and sour sauce, served with small potato dumplings and red cabbage, was very good. The portion is for guests with a large appetite, and it's definitely filling. The ambiance is rustic and rather dark, which is certainly due to the fact that it was originally a restaurant (pub). The north-facing window front, which is opposite the church and therefore allows less daylight into the rooms, adds to the atmosphere. This makes it quaintly cozy. The service is friendly and helpful, and the hostess is a true "Eltense Mädsche" (Eltense girl), with her heart on her sleeve and a correspondingly pleasantly witty and cheeky manner. The concept is rustic, quaint, with its own charm and typical of the Lower Rhine region. The price-performance ratio is good. We keep coming back. :-) I'd like to add that we were invited to dinner on March 22, 2025, by a group of men. The pork medallions and the schnitzel with fresh mushrooms in a cream sauce, as well as the mixed platter, were again very good. Beforehand, we had fresh, warm bread with herb butter and a dip, which was really delicious. So... we'll be back.

Food very tasty and served well to the eye.

Eine der letzten Gaststätten in Emmerich, wo man noch einkehren kann. Die Inhaber sind sehr freundlich, gutbürgerliche Küche und leckeres Bier vom Fass 👍
