Gutsausschank im Baiken

The location is idyllic, the menu and food delightful, the wine good and affordable, but I couldn 't pay for our guests and ourselves because the Baiken does not accept US/Canadian credit cards so bring cash!! May explain why there were lots of locals here, and very few tourists. This is certainly a locals ' secret, as it is in a tiny town Eltville am Rhein , up the hill at the edge of a large vineyard, in the Rhine Valley near Ruedesheim. The food is very classic German, and well prepared. Two of us had the veal shanks with chanterrelles and a demi glace. Another had a pork cutlet, with spaetzle. The wait staff was most accommodating, allowing us to switch veggies, etc. We shared a cheese a...

The people next to our table are totally wrong. We had made a reservation by phone for a table next to the vineyard. And we did not get our reserved table!!! The reservation was confirmed . o.k, but do not fall into the vineyard . We were in this place more than a dozen times, that is why I could make a precise reservation. When we arrived with friends from another city, who specificly came to see this place, we were told that there is no reservation for a table next to the vineyard. They argued that that others had made an earlier resevation . This, of course, is totally wrong and of no relevance because I had a confirmed reservation. Even worse they claimed that I had not made a reservatio...

Baiken has a stunning location amid one of the most famous vineyards of the region. A visit is by itself something special. When however one is visiting on two consecutive days to have exactly the same menu for lunch, as I did, this means there's something really special about it: it's their food! It's absolutely stunning! I can't think of a better place to have down to earth German food of the highest quality, with zero pretension. The whole experience comes wrapped in a warm and friendly smile by every team member...and it's not even expensive. Like I said: the same menu on two consecutive days first time in my whole life :

We visited this restaurant a few years ago, and looked forward to another visit. I wish we 'd returned sooner, but better late than never . We tried to make a reservation but the book was full. However, we were told that if we arrived for an early dinner, we 'd be seated. In fact, once we arrived we were told take your time, the other party is delayed . We enjoyed an excellent meal, excellent wine, and excellent service. All in a location literally in the middle of a vineyard, overlooking the Rhine. We 'll be back, having booked our reservation earlier.

We recently ate dinner at Baiken and it was such a great experience. The food and Riesling wine were amazing! My husband had the venison and I had a small ravioli dish with pretzel crumbs; both were equally delicious. The restaurant is situated on top of a hill surrounded by vineyards. Amazing views. Definitely plan on returning with friends and family.
