“ Restaurant Bianc – A Thoughtfully Crafted Experience From the moment we booked, Restaurant Bianc showed an impressive level of care. A few days before our visit, they reached out to confirm our reservation and even checked for potential food allergies. A simple gesture, but one that set the tone for the evening. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed and given an introduction to the restaurant’s architecture—a unique and personal touch that made us feel like more than just customers. The attention to detail continued with the food. The first bite, a delicate olive explosion paired with a homemade grissini, was a surprising and flavorful start to the meal. The dishes that followed were small, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. Every plate was like a miniature piece of art, making it almost difficult to disturb the perfect arrangement. One small but memorable detail was the replacement of our napkins whenever we stepped away from the table—a subtle yet thoughtful act that added to the sense of refinement. The staff at Bianc were exceptional. They spoke fluent German but also had excellent English, engaging with us and answering every question with enthusiasm. Every aspect of the dining experience was carefully planned—from the shape of the plates to the precise temperature of each dish, ensuring the perfect balance of flavors alongside the thoughtfully chosen wine pairings. Restaurant Bianc is more than just a place to eat; it’s an experience where every detail is considered. If you appreciate fine dining that goes beyond just the food, this is a place worth visiting. ”
“ 2 stars Michelin restaurant didn’t disappoint. Great dining experience. Service was of high level. Good wine recommendations to dishes. Pauses between courses were on point. The interior is nice. I like the fact that chef designed restaurant himself and brought a tree from his parents’ house, as well as imported tiles from Italy. ”
“ Excellent food and service. One of my best experiences of resturants ”
“ Bianc is incredible, extraordinary, hard to put in words. A night here is something that can’t be described, but has to be experienced. The food is out of this world: the taste, the texture, the looks, the presentation. But of course it goes much further than that. The service is extraordinary, how the kitchen & service team work together is a symphony of perfection. The design of the place, even the bathroom, the plates, the glasses : it indeed has to be experienced. We spend 5h to get through the menu and would therefore also recommend to get there early. We had the Garden (vegetarian) and Emotion (meat/fish) menu and did the wine pairing and the non-alcoholic pairing. Both excellent. You can also regularly take a look in the kitchen and see how everything is prepared. Everything is explained to you in details as well (wine & food) by the service team. The whole staff is very attentive, friendly and creates such a welcoming and warm atmosphere. We can only imagine how much hard work & dedication it takes to create such an experience! Thanks so much to the whole bianc team. We will be back! ”
“ Food was truly amazing, this was our second time and we decided to celebrate our 14 wedding anniversary there as we knew it would be great (based on our first experience) unfortunately we were not that lucky this time, although food was really amazing, beautiful, creative, great taste, service was not great it all started well but after a while they kind of ‘forgot’ we were there and left us unattended so we had to eat some of our dishes without nothing to pair (drink). At some point we were just waiting for someone to notice we were trying to get something to drink but just decided to ask for the check and leave, no one supported us to the door to get coats and stuff, which is common at restaurants in this level though. Shame cause food wise is really wonderful but I honestly dont feel like going back ever again. ”
“ Should have been a 2 star Michelin experience. From appetizer to starter we waited 1,15 Hour, food was looking good but very salty, cold or melted. Like it waited on the counter too long. Some dishes was good other not deserving of a 2 star. Wine is only reason they get a higher rating. I think they had a bad day .... ”
“ Wonderful place - gorgeous food - friendly, professional service. We were treated to a feast of tastes and textures. Colorful, artistic servings. Fabulous wine in the wine pairing menu. The owner strolls around and engages in small conversations at the tables. The big distance between tables ensures privacy. Acoustics is controlled, which enables an easy conversation without raising the voice. My wife had the Emotion, while I had the Garden. Both menus were great. ”
“ Our visit to Bianc for fine dining was nothing short of perfection. Every aspect of our experience, from the impeccable dishes to the excellent wine selection, left us thoroughly impressed. Each bite was a culinary delight, and we found it difficult to choose a favorite among the exquisite offerings. The portion sizes were just right, allowing us to savor every flavor without feeling overly full. The chef's personal touch, coming out to greet us and share his inspirations behind the meal, added an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening. The staff were friendly and attentive, enhancing the overall atmosphere. We also appreciated the sentimental touch of the olive tree from the chef's parent's home. Bianc truly exceeded our expectations and is deserving of high praise. ”
