"A Béarnaise sauce I’d travel miles for"
WHonestly, I didn’t know what to expect. Score is tucked away in the greenery of Kockelscheuer, just a few minutes from Gasperich, but it feels like another world. You’re sitting there, looking out over the driving range of the golf course, and it’s just… peaceful. No city noise, just a view that feels like a moving painting while you eat.
But let’s talk about the food, because that’s where things got serious. I ordered the beef filet, and it was perfect—tender enough to cut with a butter knife. But the real star? The Béarnaise sauce. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s one of the best I’ve ever had. Rich, buttery, perfectly emulsified, and packed with fresh tarragon flavor. It’s the kind of sauce where you don’t care about etiquette—you’re going to use your bread to wipe that plate clean. The fries were crispy, the veggies were fresh, and the red wine suggested by the owner was the perfect match.
What really makes Score special, though, is the soul of the place. The owner is everywhere—smiling, chatting, making sure everyone is actually happy, not just served. And the service? That day, it was handled by two sisters. There was such a gentle, kind energy about them. It didn’t feel like a transaction; it felt like being invited into someone’s home.
Quick take: If you want a "hidden gem" with zero pretension but high-level cooking and a genuinely warm team, this is it. I’m already planning my next visit (mostly for that sauce).
