Restaurant Maien - Riehen

Der Service war gut vom Essen waren wir mehr als enttäuscht in dieser Preisklasse entsprach leider überhaupt nicht unseren Erwartungen

Nachdem wir den Westweg bis nach Lörrach runter gelaufen sind, kehrten wir schließlich hier zum gepflegten Dinner mit Übernachtung ein. Definitiv sehr gut. Kreative Küche, aufmerksame Kellner und ein schöner Ausblick runter auf Lörrach runden einen tollen Abend ab. Preislich am oberen Ende der Fahnenstange was sicherlich an der Nähe zu Basel liegt.

Wir waren gestern zum Essen anläßlich einer Taufe, zum Mittagessen eingeladen.Das Essen Salat,Hauptspeise und Nachtisch mundeten ausgezeichnete. Sehr freundlich u.aufmerksame Bedienung. Gerne kommen wir auch privat wieder.

We met friends here for lunch. We were greeted by a very nice hostess and seated in the larger dining area with the fantastic view on this beautiful day. I had ordered the Feldsalat as a first course and the Barberie Ente as a main. The salad was excellent. Feldsalat was amazingly tender, finely chopped purple onions adding just the right note and a delicious vinaigrette rounded it out. Portion was a bit on the small side for €9 The duck arrived in a timely manner and there were enough people serving that the crowded dining room did not suffer unnecessary waits. The duck was just a bit on the dry side for my taste but still very enjoyable. Excellent mashed potatoes and a dark, full bodied sauce accompanied it on the plate. In an additional bowl was a portion of Rotkohl with roasted chestnuts. The Rotkohl was very bland and the chestnuts over cooked. I left that after a couple of bites. I prefer the real thing - sweet and sour with a nice acidic bite. By the time we were finished the dining room was less than half full and we were left with one server who clearly rather stand in the kitchen and chew the fat that take care of the diners needs. 20 minutes after we had finished still no staff in sight. One of us finally got up to remind her that there were people still in the dining room. We ordered espresso all around and after 15 minutes of watching this person stand and talk she served the coffee. It was tepid at best. I wanted to order a properly made replacement but after 10 minutes she was till a no show. We went to retrieve her again and after another 10 minutes finally got a piping hot espresso. The experience with this server really put a sour note on the experience.

Die kreative Speisekarte hat uns sehr angesprochen. Die Speisen waren sehr gut präsentiert und sehr schmackhaft. Bitte auf der Toilette die Kabinentüren so justieren, dass Sie auch geschlossen werden könne.
