After visiting the other Baut locations we also felt like being pampered by the always excellent staff of this restaurant, unfortunately it was a huge disappointment for us.
On Friday evening a DJ turns out to be playing, which is great fun but it totally ruined the "eating experience" for me, we don't go out to dinner to a club.
Upon arrival we could not understand the host, shouting I had to make myself known and then be led to our table by another colleague. We arrived at the top of the stairs (above the kitchen) in a drafty corner.
A normal conversation was not possible at the table, you are forced to sit side by side on the couch if you do not want a hoarse voice the next day. So far the ambience.
The food was a bit of a damper, the Tagliarini was sandy and cold, the salad we chose swam in the oil. The fries, on the other hand, were tasty and the porcini mushrooms (for us a classic) were again not disappointing. There was no dessert menu and because we could not understand the service very well, we had only "chosen something". It was something with blood orange, not in itself wrong but just not my taste. The wine with the food was very tasty but unfortunately the knowledge of the service was not particularly good so we chose a trusted Sauvignon blanc while we would have liked to be surprised.
In short, quite a disappointment for what we were used to from Baut. The concept has been worked out for us. Unfortunately.
