Highly recommended!
This was our second time there and we were not disappointed. The service was extremely friendly and unobtrusive, always present, leaving no wish unfulfilled. The menu was perfectly tailored to the season, and we were treated to superb quality food, including cauliflower mousse with beetroot, pumpkin cream soup, tartar sauce, dumplings with porcini mushroom filling, and burrata. Everything was lovingly prepared and presented with great craftsmanship. The cocoa butter banana with banana cream was another eye-catcher at the end.
Thank you for the wonderful evening.

As soon as you enter, you sense that this isn't a run-of-the-mill inn, but a place of sophistication, creativity, and hospitality. The Lackner Stubn combines regionally rooted cuisine with modern influences, creating a culinary experience you won't soon forget.
The interior is charming and versatile. There are several dining rooms – including the traditional Zirmstube, a "Neue Stube" (New Room) –, a light-filled pavilion, and a spacious garden. 
The blend of coziness (wood, warm colors) and modern elements creates a harmonious atmosphere without losing character. Ideal for a special evening, but also for relaxed lunches. The garden offers a lovely alternative in spring/summer.
The menu showcases diversity and creativity. You'll find classics of South Tyrolean cuisine, as well as Mediterranean and even Asian influences. 
A few standout dishes:
• Veal fillet with beautiful vegetables and a delicate side dish. 
• Venison steak with nut crust, red cabbage, pumpkin cream, and potato dumplings: a successful combination of game and South Tyrolean regional cuisine. 
• Homemade pasta and tortelloni, sometimes with surprises like kamut flour or special fillings. 
• For dessert, try chocolate tarts with a liquid center or two types of sorbet – sweet and pleasantly light. 
The quality of the ingredients has been repeatedly praised, and you can taste the freshness and care – for example, in the bread, some of which is homemade or at least sourced locally. 
The service is generally friendly, competent, and dedicated. There are reports that the staff fulfills requests, provides explanations, and is attentive. 
The wine selection is good, with a focus on South Tyrol and the surrounding area, which fits the character of the restaurant. 
The ambience is complemented by loving details – small greetings from the kitchen, a meticulous presentation of the dishes, and stylish table setting. All of this contributes to making you feel welcome.
Value for Money & Atmosphere
The prices are on the high side – and quite justified, considering how thoughtfully the dishes are prepared, how beautifully presented, and how often the ingredients are of the highest quality. Many guests feel that you get what you pay for, especially with the tasting menu.
The atmosphere is overall very pleasant: stylish but not overly so, with a good volume level so that conversations are possible without shouting at each other; yet lively enough for a festive evening. The garden adds further charm in the warmer months.
The Lackner Stubn is a restaurant that exceeds many expectations. For gourmets looking to embark on a culinary journey of discovery, it is an excellent choice. Creative cuisine meets regional dishes, style meets warmth, and the overall package is convincing.
So, if you're in the Merano area and fancy something special—not spectacularly over-the-top, but thoughtful, tasteful, and with attention to detail—then the Lackner Stubn is one of the first places I recommend.

A wonderful evening! The service was first-class, friendly, and welcoming. The food was a real treat. Yes, it's a bit pricey...but in this case, it's absolutely worth it.

The food is like that of a Michelin-starred restaurant, but much more relaxed. Some of the dishes were arranged like a garden of flowers and grasses. A feast for the eyes. The service staff is friendly and unobtrusive. A very relaxed atmosphere.

We ate here on August 25, 2025. It was, in a word, fantastic. The appetizers you get beforehand and during the meal are also fantastic. The price is also very reasonable.

Lieber nur ein mal Essen gehen, aber dann muß es was besonderes sein.
Eine Perle am Ausgang des Vinschgau. In der Küche ein (positiv!) Besessener, ein Künstler und Könner.
Ich spare mir wortreiche Details, Ausschmückungen und Bildmaterial.
Nur eines: wenn Sie Gänsehaut vor lauter Essens-glück haben wollen, dann bekommen Sie das hier!
1A Service.
Degustationsmenü mit Weinbegleitung!
