Gasthof Zum Rossli Biel-benken

We met a group of friends here for lunch. There were nine of us and the last time we were here was about 6-7 years ago. I had the geschnetzeltes calves liver with madiera sauce and the Rösti potatoes. I was very disappointed. The liver pieces were over cooked and slightly tough, the so called madiera sauce was fairly bland, severely lacking in salt and looked like it had been thickened with cornstarch. The Rösti were just as disappointing. Outside over browned that had to be scraped away and in the center under cooked strips of potato. Give it a miss. Others in the party had rabbit with polenta . The rabbit was good but the polenta was served as two ice cream scoops of some yellowish substance that more closely resembled potato salad and not a creamy bed of freshly made polenta. The accompanying vegetables consisted of very over cooked carrots and green beans. One guest had tne cordon blue. That was appropriately greasy served with dry fries and some of the over cooked veg. I for one will certainly not be back. You can get much better food for the same price elsewhere. Service was rushed and clearly, as with the kitchen, not up to the noon lunch crowd.

Another neighbourhood restaurant! Charming outdoor service in the summer. Serves seasonal food. Good meat from Aeschlimann, thus the beef tartare is well seasoned but a bit too minced !

A fine example of Swiss cuisine in a genuine Swiss setting. Excellent choices of dishes served pleasantly and speedily.

This restaurant offers a somewhat unexciting, older rustic interiror, but the food is good, with quite a choice. I wouldn't call it extraordinary, but you won't be disappointed if you just want a good meal. During the summer months there's outdoor seating in the garden adjacent to the restaurant where you can sit under the leafy trees. The upstairs can accommodate smaller as well as quite large groups the Rossli has some hotel rooms after all.

Wir haben ausgezeichnet gegessen. Wir waren acht Personen. Die verschiedenen Gerichte kamen alle gleichzeitig auf den Tisch! Die Qualität des Fleisches war sehr gut.
