Raststaette Grauholz Sued - Ittigen

My wife and I were passing through on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon and made a quick stop. On Saturday evening we ate the beef burger with fries and something Asian. On Sunday lunchtime we ordered the chicken burger and the cheeseburger. They were all 3 great. However, the beef burger (pictured) convinced us. Fresh ingredients and real beef.

Unfortunately, after renovation and restructuring, the charm was lost.

Very little selection, far too expensive, few seating opportunities!

Very decent food served at Grauholz! I had a home made pumpkin soup that was delicious with a Mixed salad (gemischter) that was very fresh and tasty. My kids had fish sticks and fries and the very nice surprise were the fish fillets packed in home made batter. Of course the parents ate half the kiddie meal. Desserts were great, nice carrot cake and schwarzwald cake (chocolate, cream and big confit cherries). Coffee was pretty average but drinkable. Nice waiter and very fast service.

We stopped here while driving on the highway to grab a quick bite. However, the food was much better than we expected; on par with an in-the-city restaurant. The indoor did not look very appealing, but the outdoor area is very nice, so we had a pleasant surprise overall. Would definitely recommend if you're looking to eat on the highway.
