Nach unserer Fahrradtour kehrten wir ins Gasthaus Berger (auch Scherlebecks genannt) ein.Wir wurden durch die Bedienung sehr freundlich begrüÃt.Für den Biergarten gab es eine besondere, eingekürzte Speisekarte. Wir hatten zwei Weizenbiere und bestellten uns zwei Vorspeisen.Der Tomaten-Brot-Salat mit cremigem Mozzarella und der gebackene Schafskäse mit Beilagensalat und Tomaten waren sehr lecker.Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis war In Ordnung. Wir bezahlten insgesamt 23 â¬.Der Biergarten ist ebenfalls sehr nett und lädt damit auch zum verweilen ein.

Waren mit 10 Personen Mittwoch Abend zum Schnitzel Buffet dar. 3 Sorten Schnitzel, Tiefkühlkost Gemüse, Salat, 2 Sorten Dessert, vermutlich kann man für den Preis von 12 Euro auch nicht mehr erwarten. Getränke ((Flasche Wasser 6,30 Euro, offener Wein 5 Euro) überteuert. Service bei Wunsch nach veganem Essen überfordert und genervt.

They advertise on their website to have the largest variety of Schnitzel in the world but that is not true. There is a restaurant in Alberta Canada with twice as many varieties and that is the Guinness World Record 2013. Sorry Herten.... Maybe they should also try to serve fresh made Schnitzel and not those deep frozen mass products for deep fryer and out of a box.

Zuerst sollte man wissen, dass es hier einen Betreiberwechsel gab. Die Vorgänger hatten in deren letzten Zeit nicht mehr wirklich einen guten Ruf!Daher wünsche ich dem jetzigen Betreiberpaar alles Gute! Das Essen bei Euch gestern stimmt mich positiv. Mit meiner Familie war ich an einem Samstag hier und wir bestellten die Tagesgerichte und ein Kinderessen. Die meisten von uns hatten den Erbseneintopf mit Einlage und Brötchen. Zusätzlich gab es dann am Tisch noch zwei Schnitzel in verschiedenen Variationen. Zu den Schnitzel können wir sagen, nicht nur super lecker und saftig, sondern auch frische Ware, kein TK Fertigschnitzel aus der Fritteuse, sondern selbst geklopft und paniert, einfach Lecker!!Der Erbseneintopf, war ebenfalls hervorragend abgeschmeckt mit viel Fleisch und natürlich Erbsen. Die BegrüÃung als auch die weitere Bedienung war sehr freundlich und herzlich. Hier werde ich in Zukunft öfter mal einkehren. Die Qualität, das Ambiente, die Herzlichkeit und der Preis sind hier echt angenehm!!

Der Flammengrill ist eine gute "Pommes-Bude", die wir hier im Ruhrgebiet öfter vorfinden. Das Personal ist bei meinen Besuchen immer sehr freundlich gewesen. Die Flammengrillwurst mit SoÃe, also mit einer leicht scharfen und dunklen SoÃe überzogen, ist sehr lecker. Mir schmeckte diese jedenfalls immer sehr gut. Es gibt hier Sitzplätze und man wird recht schnell bedient. Leider ist der Dunstabzug der Gerüche dieser Pommes-Bude nicht so gut, so dass jeder schnell erraten kann, woher man gerade gekommen ist. ïEinfach mal ausprobierenâ¦
5. Bullerkotte

Despite the mania for inventiveness that overtaxes our era, a place remains for a restaurant that can deliver competently conservative high cuisine. That conservative taste seems to be the focus of Bullerkotte, which draws together many of the characteristics of the current farm-to-table movement without explicitly identifying or boasting about them. Bullerkotte might be described as a dignified monument to the first wave of German cuisine: to the earliest attempts to create a "fine" cuisine based on German products and traditions. On one hand, the menu and the venue have aspirations. Written in a curious idiom in which German and French cooking idioms merge and intertwine, the menu celebrates favorite German proteins such as duck, ox, chicken, and, of course, sausage, including blood sausage. Overall, the dishes could be described as somewhat "meaty." An oxen filet, for example, arrived somewhat mysteriously topped by a whole, in-the-shell prawn, as if a freak tidal wave had unexpectedly swept seafood into the butcher's shop. This kind of multi-story layering of diverse meats reached its acme in the 1990s--and it still produces the same unfortunate result, to wit, an initial sense of amazement followed by a feeling that a dish is somewhat overloaded. Many of the chef's inventions evidence a high level of creativity. For example, dinner opens with a marvelously memorable cucumber spread that, in lieu of butter, imparts a laudable vegetable as well as herbal taste to perfectly rendered baguette slices. The blood sausage appetizer features a stuffing of the aforementioned protein pudding artfully rolled in puff pastry and accompanied by a micro-greens salad, all to uplifting effect. Equally creative albeit somewhat less successful is the duck breast and spaghettini combination, in which three perfectly rendered and exquisitely seasoned duck slices avalanche their way down a vortex of pasta, all alongside a tangy cheese tuile. Probably it would have been more effective to integrate the duck and the pasta more effectively--perhaps by creating a duck-stuffed ravioli--but the merit of the taste could not be disputed. As previously mentioned, main courses at Bullerkotte seem, to modern tastes, somewhat out-of-balance, with great weight given to the protein and somewhat perfunctory attention going to the accompaniments. Both the oxen steak and the local chicken appeared atop an eddy of mixed vegetables in a dark brown sauce that savored a little too much of soy sauce or similar seasoning. Although the vegetables themselves were spot-on and perfectly poached, they added nothing memorable to the overall composition. The chicken main course had been identified as a "tandoori" recipe, but its mildness and wholeheartedly European flavor profile conjured no thought of India while the aforementioned soy-flavored sauce led diners to wonder whether south and north Asia had been confused. Bullerkotte offers a lovely setting in the farmlands outside of the industrial Ruhr Valley. The restaurant occupies what appears to be a former farmhouse. Interior decor is, again, straight out of the elegant 1990s. All is tasteful, all is deluxe--but also all is beige. A full house creates a cheerful ambience, although the clientele might be characterized as rugged rural gentry rather than as city slickers. Bullerkotte makes for a pleasant country evening. It would be wonderful to see the chef turn some of his admirable talents to a bit of updating of both menu and envrionment, but, in general, the Bullerkotte experience is a pleasant one.
4. Steakrestaurant Adria
Reviewed By ncvejic6545
Oh my, where to start. This restoraunt is a pure gem in NRW's food scene. Discretely tucked away in the quite little town of Herten, but trust me, most "big city" steakhouses can't compete with these guys. The decór of the place is nice, its cosy and comfy, and gives off that "family owned restourant" vibe. The prices are more than reasonable, and the service is friendly and fast, our food arrived pretty quick, and damn, it was delicious. Their starter specialty is a onion soup, but with a twist, seeing as they put fresh chesse on top off the bowl, and let it melt. it is delicious!Their cordon bleu was also amazing, it was as tasty as it looked, and as you can see, it looked delicious!But the definite star of the show is their "Adria" steak. 100% (as they state in their menu) argentinian beef, with an amazing mushroom + home-made hollandaise sauce. It is probably the best steak i have ever had in my Life!All in all, i highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a good meal!

What a wonderful place! A lovely wooden-beamed family-run establishment. Friendly, helpful service and the best steak you could ask for. The Uberraschungs-menu (surprise menu) is a must. I had the 3-course version which hit all of the targets; tasty, beautifully presented, perfectly cooked and served with great wines (if you go for the wine version).The only down-side was that they don't take non-German credit cards, you need cash. Make sure that you take some with you as it is well worth a visit. I will endeavour to stay there next time to sample the rooms as well as more of the exquisite food.

In Reck to support the local pro basketball team -- CityBasket Recklinghausen. Covered all the restaurants in town -- this one was definitely up there!... (along with the Italian restaurant next door)... Nice dinner after game -- accommodated larger group and stayed open late for us. Great service. Great food. On pricey side for us, but...worth the splurge. I had the duck -- which was fabulous. Chef does nice job of blending flavors and creating interesting/satisfying combinations.We'll be back -- Go Citybasket!

I took my family here for a nice dinner during a recent visit. We went in the middle of the week, early in the evening. The place was pretty empty and didn't fill up for the rest of the evening. We were wondering how loud the it would become if it actually filled up with patrons, because the voices of the few people dining transported easily through the building. The building, as the images indicate, just provides a great atmosphere. It's simply lovely. The staff: there were about 4 or 5 people working in the open kitchen, you're encouraged to sit close to the window to the kitchen so you can watch them prep the food. It's quite an artisanal event, and by and large the kitchen staff know what they're doing, just sadly not when it came to my non-dish. I enjoyed watching them doing their thing. I find open kitchens reassuring of the quality and cleanliness of the product sold.Before I get to my own little disaster, though, let me mention that the waitresses were wonderful, superbly trained and very attentive... until it got just slightly busier, at which point we didn't see much of them. When I say slightly busier, that's what I mean, the place was still about 60% empty. Bit of a concern. The menu is easy as well as complex, you have to order most things separately, unless you go for the tastings menu. Be warned, your bill adds up rather quickly. We didn't find the tastings menu appealing, so we (the three of us) ordered different things. One of us had fish, the other had steak, both mains were superb. Unfortunately, for the restaurant, this review is written by the vegetarian member of our party, and my meal was an unmitigated, expensive disaster. Whatever they had on their menu wasn't available so they came up with a fancy name for what were essentially artichoke hearts and mushrooms. They managed to prep them in such a way that the artichokes were tasteless, and consisted of probably two small artichoke hearts cut in quarters. They combined that with a soup-ladle size serving of mushroom and you had what the kitchen erroneously served as a main course. Truth be told, the main course, not just the artichokes, was tasteless. In the age of salt that's not an easy thing to achieve, but this kitchen managed. Talking about salt, I asked for a side of mashed potato. What I got was a side of salt laced with mashed potato. It became clear to me that in this kitchen nobody actually checks the taste of the meal before they send it out. So, while a significant effort was invested in putting lipstick on this pig, at the end of the day, it was a pig, a tasteless and expensive one at that. My advice to you: If you consider visiting here and you have vegetarians among your party, give it a miss. If you have no vegetarians in your party, go for it. It's expensive for what it is, but the fish, steak and side dishes (well, most of them, just not the one I had, the salt with mashed potato) were well worth the trip out here. The other two members in my party did enjoy their meals and the atmosphere, genuinely. A clear case of Let the Buyer Beware.
