I ate here twice. The first time, the outdoor area of the restaurant was very busy, and one of the waitresses was extremely nervous, which created a slightly unpleasant atmosphere. The other waitress, however, was very friendly on both occasions. I tried the South Tyrolean Gröstl, which was tasty, and the dessert – vanilla ice cream with raspberry sauce and cream – was also good. I was disappointed by the gluten-free pizza, though – the dough was unusual and very hard, and it was served warm rather than hot, so it cooled down quickly and became chewy, especially the cheese. I still truly appreciate that they offer a gluten-free option.
If you google "Bruneck gluten-free places" and this comes up, know that it is definitely a mistake. They don't even know what gluten-free is. We call to book and rightly so, since there is a celiac, we ask questions about it: zero preparation. "I'll ask in the kitchen, wait" then "yes, you can eat meat and pizza".
We arrive and when we ask again what we can eat gluten-free we find ourselves faced with total unpreparedness, we are even recommended CANEDERLI which are made with bread.
"Can we have all the meat?"
"Yes, it's on the grill"
We ask for ribs and they tell us that those are with gluten because they are cooked in a sauce...."Cooked on the same grill as the rest of the meat?" We ask
The answer is obviously yes.
At which point he advises us to just have a pizza, as if we were breaking his balls with all these questions, so we ask if the pizza is at least cooked in a separate oven and... obviously not, cooked in the same oven but with the pan, how safe!
I'm not giving a star because we managed to fall back with a pan-fried steak and a salad that I still don't trust but in the end we were left to our own devices waiting to be able to ask for, I don't know, a coffee.
Oh and pan-fried steak + salad €28.50
For the others who are not celiac:
Dumplings below average
Good goulash
Smash bruger good but in the end it's not smash but a simple hamburger that was too rare and paid 3 euros more.
The place describes itself...
The staff is extremely kind and welcoming, in perfect harmony with the holiday atmosphere that can be felt in the restaurant and in the surrounding area.
Also very attentive to dietary needs, in our case, for celiac disease.
The dishes are simply sublime, starting from the baskets of bread and butter.
The view, breathtaking...
