Seethaler - Straubing

During the Christmas market season, you need to come early to get a table, the restaurant was full by 19:00, although it stretches out to the back with many tables. We had the Griesklöschensuppe (semolina dumplings in beef stock), followed by once the Gäuboden-Teller (signature dish: pork meat with dark sauce, sausage, kraut, potato dumpling) and once the Zwiebelrostbraten (rumpsteak with fried onions and fried potatoes). Everything was fine, along with friendly and efficient service.

Located on the beautiful Theresienplatz, Straubing's picturesque city square, Seethaler is an institution serving delicious food to locals and tourists alike. The restaurant interior is typical Bavarian style, making for an inviting ambiance. English speaking staff accommodates questions of foreigners with a smile, as they peruse the extensive menu of Bavarian specialties and international main courses. Prices are reasonable, portions are ample in size, and the food is excellent. One can not go wrong choosing the Restaurant Seethaler when in Straubing.

Large intact antiques, with many original seats, wood cladding, furniture and an interesting old mural. We enjoyed herring, schnitzel and salads, washed with beer and Austrian Veltliner wine. Operates separately from the hotel above. Our bill for two came to €47.40.

Simple but plentiful menu, great beer, friendly staff, fast service, this is the kind of place traveling is fun.

Been there for dinner, on a beautiful day, just off the main market place in Straubing. It is a traditional place, not too dark Bavarians seem to love places on the dark side , cosy gemütlich . Good service, good food, good drinks. Everything very much okay, and recommended, and nothing exceptional: a good 4-star-place that won 't disappoint you.
