Thank you for a lovely evening in this great location. The menu was unique and perfectly coordinated. In addition, the appropriate wine recommendation and also the drink recommendation without alcohol. Very imaginative and exceptionally good. Simply an experience. Thank you
Taste explosions from the 8-course menu with great explanations of the individual dishes and matching wines. We also found the finely crafted details almost too good to eat. But all of them are super delicious. The round tables for four make the ambience a little less intelligent, but it was ok. Sweet and with a love of detail: the stool for your bag!
An all-round successful visit. In addition to wonderful food, the service was also excellent. We enjoyed every minute in this beautiful atmosphere and it won't be the last time we'll be there. Thank you for the very nice evening.
Well intended is not always well done
Unfortunately, our visit to Kevin Gideon's restaurant this weekend was quite ambivalent: very good service, but in the context of a 5-course menu, the main course was unfortunately a complete failure; What was announced was lamb, an “update” was announced on Shortcut on site, which unfortunately turned out to be a maximum 3 × 4 cm piece of more or less just fat for all 4 of us guests, and unfortunately not only at our table, but also at the neighboring table and behind us... Unfortunately, the service's offer to compensate for this with an additional dessert did not work for us, our plates were returned. To save our honour, it must be said that a well-prepared meat dish alternative came (albeit at our explicit request).
But…. As a chef, do you really believe (probably with ambitions of a star restaurant) that you can “make fun” of all the guests one evening, along the lines of “maybe the guest won’t notice” or the guest will just accept it?
The repeated assurances from the service staff (who were visibly uncomfortable with the whole thing) that Kevin Gideon would like to discuss this again at our table; came to nothing; When we left the restaurant after more than 90 minutes, the chef was still joking with the guests at the table next to us who were probably less critical.
Well….with the artfully prepared, but of course very small portions, I think you can expect consistent quality for the menu prices quoted….
We would have liked to have discussed all of this on site, but if the chef doesn't have the stature to accept well-meaning criticism in person, but then two days later you receive an email asking you to comment on the quality of the evening... then you read this publicly here 🤷🏼♀️
Conclusion: you can do it that way, but you don't have to...
Ein unvergesslicher Abend - tolle Gerichte, tolle Weinbegleitung, tolles Team.
Sterneküche!!! super abgestimmte Gerichte und die passende Weinbegleitung.
Man hat die Möglichkeit sich mit den Köchen und dem Personal zu unterhalten und auch jederzeit fragen zu stellen.
Wir fanden es einfach nur toll. Danke nochmals an das gesamte Team macht weiter so 👍🏻
Die Vielzahl an 5-Sterne-Bewertungen, welche die Bad Säckinger Genuss-Apotheke auf dieser Seite bereits auf sich vereinigen kann, spricht Bände. All die Lobesworte hat sich das Team rund um Raimar Pilz absolut verdient. Insofern bräuchte es unsere Bewertung eigentlich gar nicht mehr; sie soll vielmehr als ein Dankeschön für einen wunderbaren Abend verstanden sein, bei dem einfach alles gepasst hat.
Die Gerichte sind handwerklich und in der Auswahl der Aromen von höchster Finesse. Das ist Sterneküche im besten Sinne des Wortes, hinter der professionelle Substanz steckt und die nicht von der bloßen Show lebt. Zugleich herrscht im Restaurant eine entspannte und fast schon herzliche Atmosphäre der Gastlichkeit. In der Genuss-Apotheke steht das Wohl des Gastes im Mittelpunkt, dem Raimar Pilz und sein Team ein angenehmes Erlebnis zu bescheren bemüht sind; und das spürt man auch. Die Ansprache ist authentisch und hilfreich; Frau Ronneberger hat sich viel Zeit bei der Weinberatung genommen und ist sehr zuvorkommend auf uns eingegangen. Auf unsere Wünsche (ob im Vorfeld besprochen oder abends vor Ort geäußert) hat man sich flexibel und sehr freundlich eingestellt. Und das "Wollschwein von Kopf bis Fuß" war einfach geil...
Für uns hat sich die Anreise mehr als gelohnt, und wir freuen uns schon auf unseren nächsten Besuch.
So i can really say that we both are astonished with design music and service, our taste buds are happy and our hearts are filled to fullest.
Okumyanaki was 8/10
Japanese Ravioli 10/10
Beef Ramen 9/10
Moti desert 10/10
Great food. Service very friendly and uncomplicated.
Wine accompaniment is ok - but doesn't quite match the high standard of the food.
Nice room - but acoustically suboptimal.
I went there with my daughter for the New Year's Eve 8-course menu. It was our third time at this restaurant, and we were delighted every time. The best sushi I've ever eaten, with so much attention to detail. I can hardly wait for the next time. Thanks for these culinary journeys 😊
Una experiencia gastronómica experimental e inmersiva de primer orden. Me gustó mucho mi cena en solitario aquí y volveré para probar las diferentes estaciones.
