Restaurant König Gustav in Sassnitz

Please make a reservation: April 18, 2026 Four people Table immediately to the left of the entrance This order is no joke. We celebrated my wife's birthday on Friday. The server only noticed because we were paying attention. We (or rather, my wife) were then incredibly surprised. Absolutely wonderful. But regardless of that: - Great atmosphere - Superb staff - The food was absolutely delicious, plentiful, and offered excellent value for money. You've earned your upcoming annual vacation. Stay just the way you are. The order is placed. I'll call you; our vacation apartment in Haus Rosenstein is already booked.

Great restaurant. Excellent service and the food was very good. Definitely worth a visit.

Cozy atmosphere, friendly, attentive service

Everything was clean and tidy. The service was friendly and the food was fresh and delicious 😋

The online menu, the menu displayed in front of the restaurant, and the menu actually offered are different. Service is great, as are the quality of the food and the atmosphere.

Five stars in every respect! The service is simply top-notch; you feel well taken care of. Thank you for the wonderful time. I'd gladly come again.

Cozy, delicious food, attentive service. The owner rocks the entire service with heart and even fulfills special requests (table).

We ate here at the König Gustav twice and were positively surprised each time, very tasty and tasty food, friendly service at fair prices

The good reviews promised a lot, and they were right. The menu and drinks are digital. I prefer a tactile menu, but for the sake of the environment, I also search on my phone. The most important thing, though, is the food, and all I can say is: It was delicious. Even though the restaurant was full, we didn't have to wait long. The meat was tender and the sauce was perfectly seasoned. It's not cheap, but the food is worth it. At the beginning, there was a "greeting from the kitchen." The service was, despite the full menu, very friendly, attentive, and courteous. However, a table reservation is recommended. I highly recommend a visit.

We were more than satisfied. The food and service were first-class. We'll definitely be back. St. Krömke and family.

It's been a long time since we've been here and we were very surprised. A definite recommendation for all visitors to Sassnitz. Great food, friendly service, and they even served a group of nine people all-inclusive. Simply fantastic! Thank you so much. See you soon👍

Highly recommended We visited the König Gustav restaurant on October 11, 2025, and were absolutely thrilled. The service was very friendly and attentive, the food fantastic, and the ambiance a feast for the eyes. We'll be back next year!

We were lucky to get a free table. Next time, I would reserve in advance. Very friendly service. Both the main course (duck) and dessert were truly delicious and beautifully presented. The drink prices are a bit high, but that seems to be the norm in Sassnitz/on Rügen. We'd be happy to come back.

We've had the great pleasure of dining at König Gustav several times, and each time it was a culinary highlight that far exceeded our expectations. We received a warm welcome as soon as we entered. The entire team, from the chef to the waitresses, was not only professional but exuded a genuine friendliness that is unfortunately far too rare these days. Everyone was attentive without being intrusive, well-informed about the menu, and had that special blend of charm, courtesy, and genuine hospitality. You do a fantastic job and made each of our evenings truly special. The food? A poem! Each course, beginning with the "Greetings from the Kitchen," was perfectly seasoned, lovingly presented, and prepared with evident passion. You simply taste the high-quality ingredients and true dedication used here. We would particularly like to highlight the half roasted duck, the Spanish fire-roasted beef, the pike-perch fillet, the tapas platter, the Crema Sóller, and others, which were absolute masterpieces both in terms of taste and appearance. If you're looking for enjoyment, quality, and warm hospitality, this is the place for you. We love coming back again and again. Sometimes we bring our guests, who are just as enthusiastic. Andrea and Lutz

Such friendly staff, even though it was busy and there was only one person serving and one person in the kitchen. They took the time to chat. We were very impressed, especially with the food. Keep up the good work and we'll be back. Oh, and it's always better to pre-order. Thanks again for this lovely evening, and hats off to you both for what you do.🥰

The food was well-prepared and generously served. The staff stood out for their friendliness and interest in interacting with customers. I felt at home even though I'm not German. One of the best gastronomic experiences I've had here. The Berlin-born waitress was simply very pleasant to talk to, gave us tips, and made for a great evening. I highly recommend it!!!!

The service here is very good and individual needs are catered for. The customer is king here, which is very pleasant. The food was excellent. We would happily eat here again!

We were there twice with 6 people, it was excellent

Friendly service and delicious food in a pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommended.

A very nice restaurant with very friendly service. And the food is incredibly delicious.

We returned after two years and received a warm welcome, making us feel at home again. The food was fantastic, as usual. We'll definitely be back.

The service was super friendly, very attentive, and she even had a kind word for our dog. The food was fantastic. Even the vegetable stir-fry was so perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection that you could easily become a vegetarian. The tapas platter is simply sensational. You get the feeling that the food here is truly passionate about its cuisine. This is now our new favorite restaurant on the island.

Very tasty food with good portions and pleasant, courteous service

Very pleasant atmosphere and polite staff

The food is truly delicious 👌😋 It definitely deserves a 5*, but when the staff constantly tells you that this and that isn't allowed – like a scoop of ice cream without anything, for a child, instead of with chocolate cake, or that it tastes like fish with sweet potato fries instead of rosemary potatoes – you get annoyed at some point. 😵‍💫 Can't the staff care how I prefer something? 🤷 And since when does lamb fillet with green beans only taste good with potato gratin? I've never experienced it like that before, especially since everything was on the menu. 🤷 You don't get the impression that at König Gustav, "the customer is king." 🤷 And what I absolutely dislike is when a restaurant smells of frying oil. Sorry, but 3 of the 5 of us work in the catering industry and this is just not acceptable😵‍💫 Simply turning on the exhaust air would really make sense when the dining room is full.

Super delicious and, above all, freshly prepared food. Served by very friendly staff, with a lot of attention to detail. We'll be back.

We were guided by the positive reviews and paid a visit to König Gustav. And what can we say? It was simply delicious and the service was top-notch. The Duroc pork and the saddle of lamb were simply fantastic. This restaurant is highly recommended, and anyone on Rügen should definitely stop here. The value for money is also excellent. Even though I tend to be critical, I can't find anything negative here. We would come back anytime.

Very friendly and attentive staff, the chef's special touches, and the menu offers something for every taste. Highly recommended!

Very friendly service, excellent food. Dog-friendly. We went as a couple on a Sunday evening; reservations are recommended. Absolutely excellent value for money. We'd love to come back!

A restaurant in Sassnitz where you have to eat at least once. It's like eating at your mom's. Great service and the highest quality.

About 200 meters from the Rügen Hotel. Very friendly service. The food was plentiful and delicious. We'd happily return.

Very cozy restaurant. A varied menu. Our food was excellent. The service was very warm, attentive, and very friendly. We had a thoroughly enjoyable evening here and would gladly return.

Very authentic and everyone was friendly, the chorizo ​​pan was a hit!

Great restaurant with excellent service, delicious food in generous portions, and a truly lovely atmosphere. I'd go back anytime!

Extremely friendly service, incredibly delicious food. Highly recommended – a must!

Friendly and personable staff, who also have good recommendations. The food was delicious. It's worth taking advantage of the specials on the dynamic menu.

Super delicious, great staff. The food is freshly cooked. Never eaten so well.

We ate here twice in the evening. The food was so delicious and the staff was fantastic. We'd be happy to go back.

The food was a delight. We felt very comfortable. The staff was very attentive and friendly. We'll definitely be back.

Friendly staff, really good food, great atmosphere. Everything is fresh. We'll be back. ☀️👍😉 The Duroc pork steak was simply amazing.

What a friendly and welcoming service. You're pampered. The food is truly excellent.

We discovered it by chance and love coming back again and again. The food is simply "wow." The service is super friendly and prompt. Kudos to the kitchen. See you next time.

I was absolutely thrilled with my visit! From the moment you enter, you're greeted by a warm, inviting atmosphere that immediately makes you want to spend an enjoyable evening. The service was outstanding, attentive, friendly, and always with a smile, without being intrusive. You can tell that they truly care about hospitality. The food was simply divine! Each course was prepared with such attention to detail, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully presented. I would especially like to highlight [insert your favorite dish here], which was an absolute highlight in terms of taste. The selection of drinks, whether wine or cocktails, was also excellently coordinated. All in all, a culinary experience of the highest caliber. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone and am already looking forward to my next visit!

Delicious and friendly :) The service is first-class, and the chef knows what he's doing, creating a feast of flavors with meat that melts in your mouth. We recommend it and send our best regards :)

The food was, as always, delicious. We'd love to come back. Highly recommended. The service was also incredibly attentive, friendly, and very competent.

Great food. 1AAAAA. There were seven of us there. The staff was super accommodating. The evening was just great.

The prices are reasonable! Very friendly and professional service. The chef knows what he's doing :)

Digital menu, ordering via the waiter, an iPad is available if needed. The food was very, very good across the board. The zander fillet was boneless. The schnitzel was excellent. The tapas platter was very well presented and very tasty. The fish and chips were also very good; perhaps a small side salad could have been added. The apple strudel with ice cream was apparently homemade and also very good. Each dish was served on a different plate and was always perfectly presented. The prices are high, but rather normal for Rügen.

Simply fantastic, wonderful ambiance, very friendly service, and delicious food. We didn't make a reservation, but we still got a great seat, thank you. We would definitely recommend it.😋👍👍😋

Wonderful food, and the service and friendliness are second to none. We were so impressed that we immediately reserved a table for the next day.

Very good food, great service. Definitely recommend it. 🫶

We ate here two days in a row. It's a shame we're leaving tomorrow and won't be able to try the rest of the menu. And I usually write that rather sarcastically. On the first day, I had the bread with olives and aioli. That was good, but then: I had two grilled fish fillets, dorado and sea bass. It came with grilled vegetables and boiled potatoes. It sounds simple at first. The fish was boneless, cooked all the way through, and still juicy. The vegetables were cooked to perfection. Cooked with a slight bite, everything perfectly seasoned. My conclusion: I was thrilled. My wife had fish and chips. Many chefs mess up their meals there, too. The fish and chips were very good. The homemade, fresh renulade turned the dish into a feast. The Crema Catalana was freshly caramelized at the table and tasted excellent. I had the Crema Soeller. An orange mascarpone cream. Slightly fruity, not too sweet, just the perfect ending. We were served by the truly pleasant Nettie. A wonderfully friendly woman who enjoys her work. On the second evening, I had the bread again – simple and delicious. This time, my wife had the schnitzel with fried potatoes. She really enjoyed it. I had the spaghetti del mare, and my mouth is still watering. It was so fantastically prepared and seasoned. A solid A+ in both appearance and taste. And I don't say that lightly. Unfortunately, very few can still prepare something this high-quality. Many more can't even capture this flavor. Thank you for the culinary experience. Thank you to you and your crew. We're happy to pay the appropriate price for it. Oh, and the tiramisu was also delicious!

Highly recommended!!! We had a very nice and humorous waitress, "Netti," and the food was delicious. Additional note: We went there a second time and it was wonderful again. The crema Catalana is carmelized at the table.

We visited here twice in August 2025, and each time, not only the food but also the service was outstanding. Both the regional and Spanish dishes were delicious and beautifully presented. The waiters were extremely attentive and friendly, making you feel truly welcome and appreciated as a guest.

Very good, it was excellent. Highly recommended.

This is truly a little insider tip. The restaurant isn't located down by the harbor, but up on the main street. It's small but perfectly formed, with a cozy atmosphere and very attentive staff, where you can tell they live and love their job. The food is simply 🤤 mmmm 🤤 and everyone will find something to suit their taste, whether it's German cuisine or a delicious Spanish dish. It's freshly prepared with great ingredients, and you can taste it. The price/performance ratio is perfectly acceptable 👌🏻

Very nice ambiance and very friendly staff. The food was also very, very good. Definitely worth a visit!

The food was delicious and the staff very friendly. I highly recommend it!

Everything is just right here. From the lovingly rustic welcome from the waitresses (which I absolutely love) to our dishes, the evening was a true highlight. The veal liver was absolutely amazing, as were the Duroc pork loin and the Wiener Schnitzel. Before that, a mixed appetizer platter and the obligatory Pimientos de Padron left nothing to be desired. This is definitely a restaurant that can be recommended with a clear conscience. We'd be happy to return...

Highly recommended. Super delicious. Everything is freshly prepared. Very friendly staff. Excellent service.

A beautiful and honest restaurant. Great, authentic Spanish dishes and super friendly service. Thank you for a wonderful evening that was truly worth it. We're already looking forward to the next time.

Super friendly service, great ambiance, and excellent food. We started with aoili and olives and a tomato cream soup—we haven't had such good soup in a long time! Afterward, we had fire-roasted pork with a superb BBQ sauce and veal steak with chanterelle mushrooms. The steak was excellent! The two girls at the counter are incredibly friendly 🫶, cheerful, and always have a witty joke or two on their lips/backs 😉👌. We went there spontaneously, for the first time, felt completely at home, and it certainly won't be the last time 😉. Our dog was also warmly welcomed. Thank you for a wonderful end to the day 🫶

We spontaneously came here as a couple with our dog. We quickly got a nice table. The food blew us away. We've rarely had such good cutlery. I definitely recommend it. The girls who serve here are super friendly and in a great mood.

A beautiful restaurant with a wonderful ambiance, excellent service, and impeccable cuisine! We were treated to an amuse-bouche and snacks, not to mention the wolffish fillet we ordered. We will definitely be back 👍👍👍

The food and service were excellent! We'd love to come back.

We landed on Rügen on Sunday 😉 in the evening we went to König Gustav for dinner, what can we say, everything was excellent, the service, drinks and the food were all first class, we will be back.

Very delicious food. The staff was super friendly. We would come back anytime. All the best to the entire team.

The food was incredibly delicious, and we received excellent advice from the super-friendly staff. We'd happily return.

Very tasty XL schnitzel! And cheerful, attentive service. Recommended!

Great restaurant and friendly service. And top-notch quality. Highly recommended.

I can only repeat myself: a cozy atmosphere to enjoy what comes out of the kitchen! Freshly prepared, it's a delight: to discover and taste 🤗, cared for by attentive service 🥰 It's a shame that Gustav is sooo far away from Tyrol... We're already looking forward to our next visit. All the best, stay healthy. Ramona Kaster

The food was very tasty. The fried potatoes were very well seasoned.

The food was delicious, the staff were great, and they were super friendly and keen on children.

The food is freshly cooked here, and you can taste it! Very good food with a blend of regional and Spanish cuisine! Highly recommended! The service staff is very friendly, prompt, and helpful! We will definitely be back. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

We returned from Tyrol full of anticipation and were already looking forward to the culinary experience... We also brought our time, because we knew everything would be freshly prepared! Thank you so much for the fantastic menu... we look forward to the next time, thank you all, and stay healthy. Kaster from Austria

Beautiful ambience, very friendly service, and incredibly delicious food.

Very very nice staff, couldn't be better

A true highlight in Sassnitz! 🌟 We visited the König Gustav restaurant and were absolutely thrilled! The food was incredibly delicious—prepared with love and a true culinary experience. We'd especially like to highlight the exceptionally friendly service, which made our visit even more enjoyable. You feel completely at ease and welcome. We'd definitely love to come back—a real insider tip for connoisseurs! 👑🍽️

We felt very welcome with our dog, the food was first-class, and the service was top-notch. We'll definitely be back.

Top location! Delicious food and great service

The food here was truly delicious! The service here is a real highlight. It should be noted that we were here during the SailGP. Accordingly, the prices were higher, and the street-side terrace was a bit noisier. Overall, we were satisfied.

Varied menu, super quality, great service

We liked it very much and it tasted good too

We felt very comfortable here. Delicious food, especially the tapas platter, was a delight. Very friendly staff.

We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance today, August 10, 2025. Excellent service, good food at reasonable prices.

A bit pricey, but extremely delicious. Very attentive service. It's always a pleasure to eat here. A must for any visit to Rügen. Reservations recommended.

Go there and enjoy...simply perfect! ❤️

Beautifully cooked fish, delicious wine, warm and welcoming hospitality, tasty amuse bouches and other complimentary treats. Lovely thoughtful touches like courtesy tampons in the bathroom. We felt right at home, a highlight from our trip to Sassnitz!

Now that's what I call a skewer. Super tasty, plentiful, friendly.

We ended up here completely spontaneously. We received a very friendly welcome. The food was delicious. The staff was attentive and courteous. What I also liked, and unfortunately, it's never talked about, was the restroom. Aside from the fact that it was clean, I noticed something at the sink. There were two bottles of deodorant, pads, and tampons. As a woman, I felt very comfortable, even though I didn't need them. We should take this as an example. (Anywhere there is a restroom.) Great place 👍

We were here for the second time today. Absolutely delicious and very friendly service. Big praise to the chef.

The fish soup is indescribable; it was a dream, and I've had the pleasure of trying many fish soups. The main courses, one fish and one neck, were all fresh and incredibly well prepared. The chef is in a class of his own. He even came to the guests' tables and asked if everything was okay. Yes, and it was. A very pleasant and delicious evening. We'll definitely be back.

I don't understand the good reviews. The staff's emphasis on the fact that everything is freshly cooked is completely normal. In any case, the food we received was okay, but nothing to rave about. Additionally, the kitchen must be a bit overworked during peak season, as we had to wait almost an hour for our food.

We visited the Royal Gustav twice last weekend. As walk-ins on Friday, we were very hungry and, after a very short wait, we got a table for two and were warmly welcomed by the two waitresses. The cozy atmosphere and the almost perfect food surprised us so much that we spontaneously requested a table for 10 on Saturday lunchtime (after our booked table at another restaurant was canceled). The head chef himself quickly reorganized his schedule and was able to confirm the table. It was a fantastic evening, which the ladies and the kitchen team put together for us. There was even a surprise dessert and birthday song from the entire team for our grandma's 80th birthday. Happy, full, and delighted, the restaurant left a lasting, positive impression on all of us. If we're in Sassnitz, a visit here is a must for us. Many thanks for the two wonderful evenings, especially to Magda for the great service. You are a fantastic team!!!

Super delicious and very friendly staff. A must-visit on your next visit to the island.

Simply good without any ifs or buts

Great restaurant. The food was consistently delicious, and the slightly high prices were reasonable for the quality. Service was fast and very friendly. The location, right on the main street, isn't particularly inviting. However, the interior is all the more cozy.

Pleasant selection of dishes; the Spanish appetizers are highly recommended. Friendly and attentive staff, short wait times, and child-friendly.

Tasty food, polite and helpful waitress. Good place to eat!

Very friendly. The appetizer recommendation was very good. The ribeye steak was okay...
