Gasthof zum Walfisch - Zwota

I came to Klingenthal this time with a colleague. For dinner we had chosen a restaurant in the immediate vicinity of our hotel. There was no real greeting when entering, as the operation behind the counter stood on a ladder and sorted glasses into the upper area. While the colleague was still smoking outside, I was already looking for a table and took place. Now the operation came down from the ladder, grabbed a menu and just wanted to move to me when I signaled her to bring two cards. She then came to the table with two cards, welcomed me right now and then also the colleagues who came in this moment. Then the question was whether we already had a drink request. Prompt answered with the question of which delicious beers are available. “Green Pils and Capuchin White Beer” was the answer. Then the colleague ordered a pils and I ordered a white beer. The beers were served while we were still studying the map. The menu had the season card in the first plastic bag, so in this case the asparagus card. There followed pages with local cuisine, carving dishes, steaks and 4 or 5 fish dishes and some vegetarian. The prices for the steaks were still below €15, all the rest was even cheaper. Unfortunately, only a part of the menu is to be seen on the restaurant's homepage, namely the one with local cuisine: [here link] While the colleague then ordered a relatively normal carving dish, I chose the daily offer that I had already seen in the hallway on a stand: asparagus with carvings and potatoes € 13.50 . The service thanked and disappeared in the direction of the kitchen, from where you could hear clearly clear knocking noise shortly later. The restaurant is quite rustic, with glassed windows and the furniture in oak rustic. The tables have plates with Resopal surfaces, on them pale green table runners with embroidered names of the house. Then a glass vase with two flowers, salt and pepper shaker, sugar can and a tea light in the glass. The walls are designed with a white structure plaster, the hanging lamps above the tables are trimmed on old with parts made of wood and forging iron. We were sprinkled by radio music in more than just background loudness. We probably felt this relatively loud because we were the only guests at 6:00 p.m. and there was therefore no conciliation leach. After a waiting period appropriate to the fresh preparation, the service brought the plates with our food and desired “good appetite”. Both carvings had a decent size, looked good and were clearly hot. The fries on my colleague's plate looked good and were obviously freshly prepared, while my potatoes had some dry places. The three bars of asparagus, although of large diameter, appeared somewhat scarce to me for this portion, but were cooked to the point and tasted accordingly well. The Sauce Hollandaise on it was very good and I thought already prepared myself, but the service then later admitted that it was convenience goods. What did not fit on both plates at all was the salad set of noodle salad! . Conclusion: Essentially delicious food with vulnerabilities. The ambience is typical of the country and appropriate, the performance of the operation is perfect. In the overall view, however, rather only in the middle field.

Wir hatten die beiden veganen Hauptgerichte, die das Restaurant anbietet und sind absolut begeistert. Sehr freundliche Atmosphäre/ Bedienung und ganz besondere vegane Gerichte. Wenn wir wieder mal in der Gegend sein sollten, kommen wir auf jeden Fall wieder! Updated from previous review on 2024-05-19

I had 'Maultaschen ' filled with spinach and vegetables and salad. It was quite good : . In this region it 's not super easy to find restaurants with vegan options and here you will find a soup as starter and three main dishes.

Wir haben die veganen Maultaschen und das mediterrane Gemüse mit Kartoffeln gegessen. Beides hat gut geschmeckt und die Portion war reichlich und der Preis gering.

We went for lunch on our way home. We choose two out of three vegan dishes. There are a couple of more traditional vegetarien dishes as well. The outdoor-seating area is very nice. Staff was friendly and the food was good. Its nothing special (german food ;D) but if you don 't feel like cooking on your vacation its a good choice.
