This place is located next door to the famous gourmet temple Ochsen near the dome of Arlesheim. The owner is Turkish, but the food is nevertheless more western European. We were seated outside on a pleasant summer evening. The service is friendly.

Food is good - large portions of hearty family-style food. Well cooked and very traditionally Swiss. The owner is very charming and the wait staff mostly so. They have Very cosy traditional surroundings and are family friendly with a kids menu and even have a change mat for babies upstairs.The restaurant is popular so bookings are recommended. It is also possible to visit just for a drink, and if they are very busy, there is a central table that seems reserved for those just drinking. Many staff speak English and those who don't get by well anyway. There is an outside terrasse in summer which is lovely. We visit Rebstock regularly.

Christmas Day! There were no festive decorations to be found inside the restaurant. No holiday atmosphere. Limited items on the menu. We ate in the gourmet part of the restaurant. Since there was only 2 appetizers on the menu which did not appeal to me, I ordered a mixed salad. Nice presentation and good dressing. Than all 3 of us had the goose breast for the main course. The temperature of the breast was cooked to perfection however it was sliced wrong (with the grain) and you couldn't cut it with a sharp knife. An old piece of chewing gum would have been more tender. It was served the braised red cabbage and some fine grain dumplings. The dumplings were bland. I tried just a very small bit of those item on my plate and did not eat any further. The food was presented well and so were the plates that passed by out tables. We told the service personal right away. They offered to put the meat back in the pan and cook it again. I know as a chef the is not a solution. One of my guests ate dessert (which was offered by the restaurant). The service was professional and attentive. Bathroom were very clean.

Visited restaurant Gempenturm today, very nice views overlooking Basel and the surrounding countryside. Restaurant has a nice terrace and tastefully decorated interior. The service was excellent and food very high quality, a good selection for children and a very good dessert menu. The meringues with ice cream went down very well, as did the apple tarte tartin and chocolate fondant.We took the bus to Gempen, it's a 15 minute walk to the restaurant from the bus stop. A nice option is to walk back down to Dornach.

What a great surprise. Â Gasthof Muhle is tucked away in Aesch near Basel. Â It is a Michelin recommended restaurant for 2012 and well deserving of the recognition. Â My wife, son and I went there for Mother's day. Â We were greeted by friendly waiters in black and white uniform in a restaurant split by a remarkable wine display case and fresh flowers on every table. Â As our Swiss German is horrible, we were served by the manager, Jean-Daniel Moix, who is fluent in Swiss-German, French, and English. Â We learned that Mr. Moix spent eight years abroad as a chef, was a chef at this restaurant (evident by a painting of him in chef attire on the wall of the restaurant) and now is the restaurant manger for the last 3 years. Â The food was the best meal I have had so far in Basel. Â We start with a complementary taster of a wine/mushroom terrine with fresh cheese and potato salad. Â My starter was a delicious mini puff pastry with fresh asparagus, garnished with pesto, alfelfa sprouts and parsley. Â My main was outstanding...A duo of perfectly grilled beef in red wine sauce and veal in a morels mushroom sauce. It came with crispy dauphinois potatos and fresh assorted vegetables. Â For dessert, we had homemade rhubarbs sorbet with fresh strawberries in a yummy sabayon cream sauce. Â For digestifs, they role out a nice cart of whiskey, cognac, and port for selection. Â For 3 courses it was only 58chf, very reasonable for Swiss standards.All in all,no boring Swiss food here, just great dishes full of flavor and tasty delights. Â It is a local treasure and a must visit for expat foreigners like myself who appreciate great tastes.

After completing a 3 week trip to Europe, I concluded my trip by flying to Basel to meet some great friends for dinner. They selected this restaurant because they knew I would appreciate the experience.And they were so right! Every aspect of this meal was spectacular from cocktail service & appetizers to the meal and dessert.This is now among my favorite restaurants in the world. On future visits to Basel I shall not miss the opportunity to dine here.Prices are very high - about $250 per person. But the experience was well worth the price. I didnât mind because they delivered one of my most favorite and memorable meals - ever!

The large terrace overlooking the valley is the real reason to dine here. We have been eating dinner here watching the sunset over Basel at several occasions. It is perfect for taking a walk in the hills and having dinner afterwards. The food is pricy and the service is a bit quirky. Nothing really bad to say about the food - it is nice and served in large portions. You can unfortunately not reserve a table outside unless you book for at least 10 persons.

We went to this trendy restaurant..because we follow the comments...even if the restaurant is not in the center. It offers all for a talented..and this cook definitely is, to be THE place for all the rather also trendy ,young with a bit of money people. - You cross the street and enter passing all the costy bikes and the beautiful garden..and enter in a dark restaurant where you are seated hopefully next to another group of successful people enjoying loudly. We were lucky to be so far away but this had the opposite effect that they forget you. Waitresses are nice..very informal..they talk to the people they seem to know...but they are SLOW..inefficient and to WAIT (it is an expensive place) for bread..20 minutes..for the dish (excellent fish BUT NOTHING WITH IT)..another 20 minutes..and another 20 for the smallest dessert we have ever eaten! My partner got a stiff neck from turning to the waiter to get the bill. But we could see that the locals...liked it..and they seem to have all eaten before because we left hungry but the bill was as quite expensive for what you get.To summ up:This owner responds to a specific client who would not go a normal restaurant...The plates are hand made...the fish comes from a happy fish and so does the meat come from a happy animal. the wine comes from hand picked owners..and you feel so good!but if you search for a place after a hard day and want to EAT and feel welcome..you might be disappointed.

I went to the ochsen making a detour on my way home.I was very disappointed to be told that the kitchen was closed at 21.10. And the way was not professional. I will not do a detour anymore and not recommend this restaurant anymore. This is not the service I expect.Disappointing.

The witches decoration and the candlelit tables together make for a very attractive atmosphere. It was not easy to read the menu in the darkened restaurant but the food was excellent. The pumpkin soup was excellent and the skewered meat selection a great choice. Hope to return soon again.
