Helt igennem en super oplevelse. Vi kom forbi ved 19 tiden og selv om vi kunne se ledige borde sagde de vi måtte vente til kl 20..RESPEKT for at have styr på at alle kan have en fantastisk oplevelse og ikke bare tænker i profitOne of the best steaks around and will definitely be going back. Fantastic service from Freida and wd were very grateful for her sorting us a table, as we didn't have a reservation.
Vi har spist på restauranten i aften med to små børn og betjening var høflig og behagelig. Maden var rigtig god (også ungernes Bolognese) Helt klart en anbefalingsværdig restaurant.Sikke dog en fantastisk. Var på køretur uden mål og kom så forbi Den Gyldne Oksen da det blev frokost tid. Betjeningen var i verdensklasse og maden lige så. Det bliver nok til et senere gensyn.Ringede da vi ikke kunne se Bøfsandwich på kortet, og ham der tog imod vores ønsker var hurtig til at finde en mulighed, og vi fik den lækreste bøfsandwichmed det hele (hjemmelavet selvfølgelig) og med lækre pommesSmakfull mat, varm mat, nok mat, profesjonell hyggelig betjening, god atmosfæreHervorragendes Essen, super Service, gerne wiederHyggeligt sted med god mad.
