Fodor's Expert Review NETTS Restaurant-Weinbar

Susanne and Daniel Nett operate a chic wine restaurant-bar filled with modern art within a 16th-century vaulted stone cellar at Weingut A. Christmann, a top wine estate. The short, seasonal menu has a Mediterranean influence, offering dishes such as green gazpacho with prawns, and cod wrapped in courgette with a sweet potato torte and fennel foam; and there's also a children's menu. The thoughtful wine list includes lots of Pfälzer wines by the glass, including those from the Christmann winery. Dining in the intimate courtyard overlooking the vineyards is a romantic option in summer, when they also open their garden for coffee, cake, and Flammkuchen (a thin-crust, rectangular pizza covered in crème fraîche and various toppings). The Netts also offer seven rooms ($) for overnight guests, each with hardwood floors and Wi-Fi.
