"Anlässlich unseres jährlichen Pflichtbesuchs beim 24Stunden-Rennen auf dem Nürburgring waren wir auch wieder in Adenau zum Abendessen. Diesmal haben wir eher zufällig die Trattoria 27 ausprobiert, die früher unter dem Namen "Bei Giulia" oder so ähnlich fungierte. Waren wir vom damaligen Ambiente und der gebotenen Qualität eher enttäuscht, so bot sich diesmal im "27" eine äußerst angenehme Überraschung: von Grund auf umgestaltet, moderner Schick mit historischen Bildern der Nordschleife, sehr gutes Essen mit ausgesprochen angenehmen Service. Das hatten wir so nicht erwartet. Die Anlehnung an das Eröffnungsjahr des Nürburgring ist damit recht gut gelungen. Wir waren so zufrieden, dass wir am nächsten Abend gleich wieder dort hingegangen sind."

"The restaurant has a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere with lots of wood everywhere. The staff are pleasant and friendly though do seem to be rushed off their feet. It was busy when we visited, but not at capacity. We all chose schnitzels of various descriptions. The portion sizes are very generous so if you are used to eating normal amounts of food you may not need a starter. The menu is fairly limited and is really meat-centric so may not be a good place to visit if you are vegetarian. Having said that, each schnitzel came with a very generous plate of side-salad which was fresh, varied with mayonnaise and in our opinion very good. The schnitzels are all made with pork according to the waitress (I did check as I always thought Wiener schnitzel was supposed to be veal). The mushroom sauce schnitzel is particularly good. The Wiezen beer was pleasant and the Apfelschorles came in good big 400cl glass sizes. My only complaint would be that the coating of the schnitzels contains a lot of salt. The chips are salty enough and OK that way, but the schnitzel coating could benefit from a reduction of half to two-thirds the amount of salt. I use a reasonable amount of (sea) salt myself when cooking but this was still way too salty for me. Apart from that, very good."

"Nice restaurant, decorations a bit outdated but not so bad, prices reasonable. The food is very well presented but average in taste and in terms of associations. As for the starter, we took the scallops, which were good but overpowered by the lemon cream. Followed by the lobster pasta. The lobster per se wasn’t bad but the pasta sauce did not tasted like homemade. Nevertheless, we had a pleasant evening."

"So delightfully surprised how good this place was! It is trackside, so I expected a little less refined, but I was thrilled to discover that our meal was first class. Duck breast, pork medallions, handmade sparrows, small bunch of green beans in bacon, rusti, steak... that was better than many of the meals we had in the cities! Yeah, it doesn't look, but it's next to a race track. Really, give it a try and you will be pleasantly surprised."
