"This was delightful restaurant that my friend visited on her student days nearly years ago. The place is small almost like dining in some ones lounge. Good atmosphere and very busy (you might have to book). They offer a small menu which they change...just once a month. There is a good selection of stuff with a course for the vast majority of people’s tastes. Good selection of beers from local breweries. Friendly service all be it a little slow and relaxed at times. Good well cooked and well presented food. Ample portions and satisfying fare. Staff likes to talk to you and even your very best Germany will be replied to in English. Well worth a visit."

"We´ve been eating Thai food from the very beginning of it´s success story about 40 years ago when the first restaurants opened in Germany.Since then we´ve tried Thai food all over the world (mainly in Thailand, UK, Germany)Our amazing summary after half a lifetime: You find three of the best Thai dishes here at the Sukhothai (former Bangkok) restaurant perfectly cooked and even better than in Thailand:Jungle Curry (Waldpaste), outstanding tasty though hot (for unexperienced very hot) and always slightly different in its taste. You rarely find that dish in other restaurants (ingredients are not very common and for most people it´s too hot)Basil Chicken (Basilikum), a bit differently prepared than the usual Thai basil, hot, sometimes very hot, always excellentSoup Tom-Yam-Gai, in many restaurants you might find it either just hot or revealing a one dimensional taste. Here it´s much more, you have to try it once in your life. (If you don´t like it, then carry on with eating pizza and pasta)Most of the other curries and the Thai beef salad are above-average, too.Coktails are also to be recommended, the lunch menu offers a good value for money.Nevertheless the fried starters platter and the Massaman (untypically coming along with pineapple pieces) are a bit disappointing. However lots of people like that "sweet" Massaman here, but we don´t.A much better Massaman curry you´ll find at Freiburg (and of course other cities...), but that´s another story..."

"Wir waren an einem Samstag dort essen mit einer großen Gruppe von über neun Leuten. Das Essen und der Service waren wirklich außergewöhnlich gut. Das Essen war auf den Punkt perfekt. Ich kann das Restaurant wirklich ohne Einschränkung empfehlen."

"the locals have real potential. very original, easy to use. Unfortunately, there was a big one, but if we had first studied the fb side and if not only spontaneously came here, we would have looked for something else. the foods are more average. we had gyros and the burger. but let's start: spontaneously fell in. more"

"small but very fine gastronomy, which is furnished with much love. the gastronomin leads warm and pleasant through the evening. the map offers possibilities to choose between fish, meat and vegetarian gear. the foods taste fresh and delicious. It should be noted that seasonal reference and the use of fresh foods are to be noted. the prices are appropriate before this background. we chose calfsbäckchen and chicken breast with crimped crust and sherry sauce. We convinced both the dishes and the entire arrangement of gastronomy. therefore we can only offer one recommendation. next time we will book the "Probiönchen-Abend" (8-courses / 28,50 euro / termine on the facebook side of gastronomy)."

"eating was really good, but the service couldn't convince at all. all employees were dressed and busy with everything else than with the guests. at the time the penultimate wm game was still running, which was closely followed by all employees. I'm sorry! the atmosphere was not good. Maybe you'd rather have to deliver to the house than go by personally."

"Great restaurant! The operation was very nice and easy on it; accordingly, the atmosphere was totally relaxed. The restaurant itself is very beautiful and modern and also has an inviting outdoor area. The most important thing: the food has tasted super and is also totally fair. P. S. Happy for the coming weeks. As soon as the crisis is over, we will definitely come back!"

"Ich war schon zum 2. Mal in diesem Restaurant. Das Essen ist köstlich! Ich würde sagen, für den deutschen Gaumen angepasst. Es gibt keine typischen traditionellen chinesischen kantonesischen Gerichte, wie z.B. Dimsum. Das ist keine Kritik, nur eine Information, falls ihr traditionelle chinesische Küche sucht wie z.B in Maastricht. Das Essen ist lecker, keine Frage. Preis Leistung: 21 Euro für ein Entengericht. Finde ich etwas teuer deshalb nur 4 Sterne. Schafft man übrigens allein. Keine Reste zum Einpacken, d.h. die Portionen sind genau richtig. Wir haben alle aufgegessen obwohl wir noch Vorspeisen hatten. Gemütlich. Service top! Sehr aufmerksames Personal. Es gibt eine extra Weinkarte."

"Went here for a dinner with my girlfriend on a Sunday evening. Staff (two older ladies) were not friendly nor welcoming. Food is overpriced and not very delicious (e.g. pasta overcooked (not al dente), tomato sauce (lasagna) was not more than warmed-up can of peeled tomatoes, lasagna dish looked like soup) and no effort to present the food in a pleasing manner. Anybody with basic cooking skills can do better (ánd cheaper) at home. No love nor passion for food or service from staff, didn't ask how the food tasted, didn't ask for desert nor for coffee. Don't go here, waste of money and plenty of better options in and around Aachen."

"This review has been a long time coming. Been coming here for about a year now at least once a month or so. The food is good, hearty portions, definitely value for money, salad comes with the meal. The house wine is a nice Greek...house wine. What makes me come back time and time again is the great family that own this place and my favorite comfort food dish at a great price. I may have a local passport but I am and always will be a foreigner, but they make me feel at home. They always got a smile on their faces and a kind word for us. Almost every time I take forever looking over the menu, I always wind up choosing out of one or two of my favorite dishes, it is just one of those things a real comfort I can count on, and they never get irritated by that habit of mine and they don't rush me no matter how busy, so thank you for that. I only wish they had some nice outside space, if they did I would be there almost the whole summer also. My only tip for them is the lighting in the back area of the restaurant, it needs to be done like the front to give it that cozy feel, it is the reason I try and request the front oh and perhaps being closer to the friendly family Oh and a Greek night would be fantastic! Tastes are adjusted for the locals on some dishes, keep that in mind. Atmosphere is not chic, it is very homey, but that being said fresh flowers on the table and candles, so it has the charm and romance of a little Greek restaurant Heck I am now craving my favorite dish Bifteki, I may just have to go tonight.... Thanks for the wonderful meals and great memories! See you soon!"

"War heute erstmals -auf Empfehlung- dort, um zu frühstücken. Sehr schön und liebevoll eingerichtetes Lokal mit Gegenständen aus der Schulzeit als Deko, z.B eine große aufklappbare Tafel (hier für die Tagesangebote genutzt), eine alte Schul-Landkarte sowie große Aufhänger aus dem Chemie- und Biounterricht. Die Garderobe sieht auch aus wie in der Schule, mit Namen über dem Kleiderhaken. Ich liebe solche Details. Auch die sonstige Einrichtung ist sehr einladend.Der "hauseigene" Hund, ein niedliches kleines Tierchen, bildet übrigens das Empfangskomitee. Muss man schon mögen, aber mich stört es nicht. Zeitweise liegt der Hund auch in seiner abgezäunten Ecke und stört wirklich niemanden, Das wird schon ganz ordentlich gehandhabt.Die Frühstückskarte bietet eine umfangreiche Auswahl. Wir haben uns für die "Doppelstunde" entschieden, ein Frühstück für 2, was nichts zu wünschen übrig lässt. Das leicht angeröstete Brot (ein Graubrot, evtl. Steinofen?) ist der Hammer; ich denke, beim nächsten Mal verzichte ich zugunsten des Brotes auf das ebenfalls angebotene Brötchen. Und ein leckeres Croissant gibt es auch dazu. Hier schaffen sie es auch, aus dem von mir nicht wirklich geliebten Plums Kaffee einen ordentlichen Milchkaffee und einen wahnsinnig tollen Cappuccino brulee (mit caramelisierter Zuckerschicht) zu zaubern. Die restliche Karte liest sich sehr interessant, es werden -mit dem tollen Brot als Grundlage- Pausenbrote für jeden Geschmack angeboten sowie Kuchen und kleine Mittagsgerichte. Das alles ist nicht ganz preisgünstig, aber dennoch jeden Euro wert. Ich war noch lange satt. Hier war ich sicher nicht zum letzten Mal."

"Visited Aachen and while planning it we found this on tripadvisor. It's a small place although you can eat next door aswell (they bring it to you in the other place) and it was full when we arrived and still full when we left. They also do take-away where people were lining up aswell. But it's really worth it. We ordered the Maschawi Grill Teller and the Mesa Teller. Both dishes had more then enough food and both tasted great. There is nothing I can fault on their food.Only thing I can add is that service is a bit slow but it's understandable seeing the amount of people wanting to eat or have take-out. Because it's an open kitchen you can see they can't add more cooks in there."

"We did not have a lot of advice about Aachen. We looked on TripAdvisor for suggestions near Hotel Benelux. Turns out we had nice food practically next door! Decor is rather nice: attractive entry arch, smiling Buddhas. Nice background music. Nice family running it speaking everyone's language. The spare rib dish was a specialty and very interesting. But I wish people did peanut sauce like Indonesians when serving sate."

"Very delicious dishes and a very friendly host. All questions and concerns were answered in a friendly way. The dishes also had a decent size, which is why the past customer reviews were probably discussed. The prices are reasonable, with about 16 euros for a meal with supplements, and about 26 euros for a fillet steak with supplements. I would definitely go to dinner here again!"

"We have been in this restaurant on a Monday evening for dinner. We have seen the restaurant some time ago and looked nice, so we decided to give it a try. After minutes waiting for a table, we finally got a seat as soon...as the family seating there got up. Unfortunately, the waiter did not notice us until I did call him explicitly and asked him to at least tidy up the table the dishes and glasses from the previous guests were still there. After that we got the menus and the waiter asked us what we wanted to drink. I did reply that we would need to read the menu we wanted to order some wine and asked him to wipe the table he didn't do it when clearing up and there were still remains from the previous guests. this made him upset and I am still wondering why. Once we were done with reading the menus we did finally order drinks and food. We ordered some appetizers and a couple of warm dishes, explicitly asking for the appetizers to come as soon as possible. After minutes waiting, I had to call again the waiter and ask about our appetizers mixed appetizers dish, does not require any cooking so should have been done quickly. The waiter was kind of upset about my request, even though I was asking politely and after a quite long wait time. Finally, we received our appetizers and following also the warm dishes. The food was ok, but nothing special. The appetizers should have come with an ouzo but we didn't receive it, we thought that maybe they would have brought it after dinner. Once we finished the main course we decided to order a dessert. We opted for a slice of cake, which was actually quite good. Even here, waiting almost minutes for a slice of cake that just needed to be placed on a plate seem to be too much, also given the fact that many tables were already empty and there were not so many customers anymore. Finally, we asked for the bill. Unfortunately there were two errors in it. We first noticed that we were charged for two wine carafes, while we just had one. After asking the waiter he did check with the responsible and she confirmed that that was a mistake. Then he did subtract the amount not due and showed us the new total. We did pay also left some tip, but probably the waiter thought the tip was not enough since he almost thrown the euros change on the table and left without even saying thank you. Then, while looking again at the bill we noticed that we were charged euros for a chicken souvlaki normal price was Again we did call the waiter and told him about the error and again he did ask the responsible about it. She took the bill and checked again with the menu. Of course she did notice the error and gave us the difference except for cents, more tip for the waiter I suppose. We left the restaurant and went back home, quite disappointed. We will never come again of course, since we were unwanted guests: all tables around us got an ouzo shot on the house together with the bill, all except us"

"Favorite restaurant in Aachen. Favorite on the map with distance the pizzas at the meter. Often there are small rolls with herbal butter before eating. That's not enough. Great location, normal opening hours, small but fine with beautiful furniture and mood in the restaurant and above again a very lively and friendly team there! Thank you. Dalla Mamma! Note: Table reservations do not go. Who comes the first painting?"

"Wir sind Stammgäste seit über 15 Jahren und eigentlich lieben wir das Atzori. Leckeres Essen und netter Service. Ausnahme: „Der Chef“ ist vor Ort und kocht selber. Zum Glück sehr selten, aber heute war es mal wieder soweit. Wir hatten Pizza und Nudeln und ich kann mich nicht erinnern, dass wir uns je über das Essen beschwert hätten. Heute aber war der Pizzaboden extrem dunkel bis schwarz. Jeder Bissen hatte diesen leicht verbrannten Geschmack. Das haben wir gewagt zu reklamieren. Die Antwort war, dass sei normal und er wisse wie Pizza aussehen muss. Sein Ton war extrem aggressiv, arrogant und laut. Von Kundenfreundlichkeit keine Spur. Im Laufe der Diskussion haben wir dann noch einmal seiner Meinung widersprochen und jetzt wurde er so richtig ätzend. Er pfefferte uns die Rechnung auf den Tisch und forderte uns auf zu gehen. Von der Rechnung müssten wir nur die Getränke bezahlen. Der Ton war inzwischen noch aggressiver und lauter geworden. Furcht einflößend. Im weiteren Verlauf erteilte er uns dann Hausverbot. Wie witzig. Er ging anscheinend davon aus, wir würden wiederkommen. Tut uns Leid um die anderen Kollegen im Atzori. Liebe Grüße an die immer nette und freundliche S., die die beste Pizza in Aachen macht."

"Ein vollreinfall. Wollte mir an meinem freien Tag mal was gönnen und habe dort eine Pizza gegessen. Ich bestellte mit brockoli und Aubergine. Der Belag, der jeweils 1,50 extra kostst war in homöopathischen Mengen vorhanden. Also eher eine Margherita. Der Käse war extrem salzig. Auf jeden Fall nicht morzarella. Die Pizza wurde mir wortlos auf den Tisch geklatscht während der gute Herr telefonierte. Somit konnte ich auch keinen Pfeffer bestellen, den ich gerne gehabt hätte. Schade. Die 10€ sind wirklich rausgeworfen gewesen. Wenigstens bin ich satt geworden."

"We were visiting Aachen from Melbourne Australia for Christmas. Melbourne city has the largest population of Greeks outside of Athens so we are every spoilt for choice and the food is always exceptional. At this restaurant we ordered moussaka which was on special, after it...arrived we could see why, it was dried up and we assume left over from the previous day. Two other dishes that were ordered were pretty much the same standard and each one came with chips (french fries) something we have never found eating in Melbourne and eating in Greece itself. This was all very disappointing because all the staff were lovely and helpful after our meal we were each given a shot glass or Ouzo."
