"My wife and I went with our two boys at the age of 10 and 12, for dinner and then the next night alone for wine. The staff was great! They were attentive, attentive and efficient. The boys had pizzas they enjoyed. I had the Tagliatelle with truffle and mushroom sauce, which was one of the best meals I ever had in a restaurant, no joke. But my wife's gnocchi was decidedly mediocre. That said it wasn't bad, just not great. Especially for the price this was a great restaurant."

"Tuesday morning Reserved for Wednesday night. Excellent. At 19:15. Name on which the reservation is called. You knew how the gun shot. Down in the vault cellar to the reserved table for 2 persons. Until then all note 1 with star. It's a great location. Now comes the honest frightening. The two waitresses at the bottom of the vault cellar are totally overwhelmed. Menu will receive after longer waiting period. After receiving the menu even longer waiting period until you could order. Waitress came and asked if we already knew what we want. Answer from us. Yeah, we've known for a long time. Statement or Answer to this from the waitress that you had enough time to pick something is not exactly beneficial. Excuse me for stress would have been more honest and more polite. After an exceptional order, the waiting period was appropriate from receiving drinks, appetizer and main course. Observe that several tables have waited longer and have been completely overlooked by the waiters. The women's group of a table carefully picked up the cards themselves and then asked carefully whether they could order something here. To solve this problem simply missing a 3rd person down in the vault cellar. This 3rd person has to be firmly behind the bar and make the drink sink and visually support which table wants to order. Waitresses have to take off their tunnel view and turn the head to the left and right at a time. This allows you to take a look with the guests so that the guests' orders can be received more quickly. Food: Appetizer good. Main food a failure. Bratkartoffeln and onions unfortunately partly burned strongly. Stainless meat medium quality. Fat and tendons too much in meat. Medium Plus ordered and received slightly less than medium. It should come in a mustard crust and came in a mustard bath. The rest of the year is covered by my must. Nevertheless, I come back and am, even if it was so, not clashing. Hope that the mistakes are turned off, because this location is absolutely worth a visit."

"the zucchit balls, the eggplant salad and the cheese balls were excellent! the pommes are unfortunately nothing and also the salat on the Veggi plate is rather semi-good. otherwise highly recommended!"

"Good bourgeois cuisine. The menu has a wide selection of Swabian treats for a broom where everyone can find something for their taste. Operation very friendly and accommodating. The drinks stood on the table after a few minutes and the food came relatively fast. Salad with mules and liver with roast potatoes, both were very delicious. Good price/performance. If you find a place outside the sun, it is perfect."

"the design is great - typical for an american diner. but the service is very far from it. even if it is hectic - the guests look forward to a nice evening. especially after a long patient waiting period for a free table, we expect ease and attention. perhaps a stay in a diner in the usa would be appropriate for the ladies - styling alone is not enough. long waiting time also after ordering - not child-friendly. The vegetarian burger was not delicious - unfortunately not better than a finished product. milkshakes and cheeseburgers with bark were good, but nothing special."

"Was staying in Esslingen and wanted pizza, so we ate here one night. I really love German pizza, as they tend to be thin crust and tasty. This one is thin, but average at best. Started with the caprese salad, which was good, but not...great (cherry tomatoes and not enough balsamic). I then had the margherita pizza. The sauce sauce and cheese were good, but the pizza was slightly undercooked and the cheese and sauce were only at the center; way too much crust for my taste. We did had a couple beers which were really good, and the service was friendly, but average. Also, they don't do credit cards; cash only. Overall, it was not terrible, but we most certainly will not be returning."

"We went to Esslingen "just because" on a Saturday and I found the Delhi Palace for our lunch. And was it good? Oh goodness YES it was good. The service was excellent. We might have been the only customers there at the time (Saturday lunchtime) but we were still made to feel very welcome. Poppadums were there in no time, and my 4 y.o. loved them. The main courses were beautifully presented, my Korma sauce was to die for, the Naan was fluffy, beer was also good (Baisinger - a good brewery).Summary: One of the best Indians I have had in Germany if not THE best."

"In short, this restaurant produces large, traditional local cuisine BUT the kitchen is completely unable to handle both the restaurant and the event rooms with maintenance. So if there is a private event that takes place during your visit, you really expect a very long waiting period for your food. We stayed at the restaurant last Sunday, ordered our food at 12.15 and finally at 2 o'clock. With two small children we literally had to throw the (delict) food into the throat and very quickly leave before there were any tantrums. We are not a fussy family that we cannot afford to be with two small children in the tow, but that is not the first time we had to wait a very long time for food. Too bad the service lets the food go."

"Wir sind spontan vorbei und hatten einen Tisch ergattert. Essen mit sehr guten Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis. Es gab Empfehlungen des Tages, wir hatten Meeresfrüchte mit Erbsen, Buschetta, Pasta mit Trüffel und Spaghetti Carbonara. Genial, ich wurde gefragt ob ich die mit Kochschinken und Sahne möchte oder Original. Ich fand die Pasta sehr gut von der Portion. Vorspeise hätte auch kleiner sein dürfen. Was soll ich sagen. Es war sensationell gut. Sehr empfehlenswert!"

"We went to Accanto on Saturday night. We were kindly shown a nice table and were looking forward to our dinner. Then our waiter came and asked us if we had been there before. We hadn't said to the water and politely that he must be mistaken. After that he started acting weird. Without going into any details, just like an example: I said I want some wine to eat. At this point he said OK, but first I should finish my beer that I had ordered on arrival. I would have enjoyed the wine during the antipasto, but the waiter went into a lot of trouble, us throughout the time we enjoy the antipasto. He asked about the wine when our inflammation came to the table. When I said at this point, I would like to have the wine much earlier, but did not have the opportunity to order any one that he seemed insulted at the fact that I would point out. Now later, when he paid the bill, he became even more rude than I did what a customer can do, no tip has added to the bill. He went away quickly and didn't even give me a reception. The food was actually good, although on the expensive side. But our experience shows that even a good meal can be completely overtaken by strange behavior of an employee and that a cold antipasto plate for two and a common inflammation lasted more than two hours 't helped the experience. And that without a beautiful glass of wine!"

"following the TripAdvisor recommendation, the Restaurant "Kleine Traube" is at rank "2" in Esslingen. I do confirm, the cooking is authentic local cooking. We did a reservation 3 hours in advance, which we do recommend during holiday peal season (July / August). A table for 2 persons during lunch time was problem at all.I have ordered the "Home made Maultaschen", which is pasta squares filled with meat and herbs. Fantastic taste and compared with other classic Maultaschen, the 'Kleine Traube' does it quite light with nice meat/herbs filling. We had as well a vegitarian version of 'Swabian Alp Cheese Pasta' (Käs Spätzle), which was home made with an excellent Swabian Alp cheese. Overall the service was nice. Not allways patient - but still very friendly. Price is acceptable due to very good quality."

"the three points reflect the current total impression due to the meanwhile poor services and the first-class food. We've been going into the market e1ins for several years, but we're not as happy as we used to. this is on the one hand the worsening personal (unattentively, desinteressiert, e.g. also overwhelmed) but also at the same time as the online ticket deviates from the actual menu (currently corrected). we had already had events that we had no more tee/coffee over an hour before closing, because the machine had to be cleaned and then of course could no longer be put into operation. because of these things we have taken our cakes or tartes with home. tastefully, however, you can't put anything, but nothing at all on all products. Whether pasta, tarte or flaky cake, it tastes everything excellent and is absolutely recommended."

"A normal Chinese restaurant/snack bar. Very good lunch menu, but even the normal menu is within the normal range. The price performance ratio is great, actually too cheap. Little to no glutamate, the vegetables are crunchy the sauces are delicious and plenty of rice If we visit Esslingen again, we would be happy to be guests here again."

"Perfektes Essen, superschneller Service! Trotz vollem Haus wurde ruckzuck die Bestellung entgegengenommen und kurze Zeit später haben wir unsere Essen erhalten. An der hohen Besucherzahl sieht man, dass hier alles richtig gemacht wird! Gerne kommen wir wieder! Nachtrag 15.03.2023: Wir haben es wieder getan und wurden nicht enttäuscht! Nachtrag 21.12.2023: Die Weihnachtsfeier mit Kollegen war wieder tip-top, schnelle Bedienung, der Grillteller ist sehr zu empfehlen!"

"War mal ..aber leider mittlerweile nicht mehr..Dauert alles viel zu lange, die Wok Brenner laufen mit zu wenig Leistung, daher köchelt eher alles. Bei mir Daheim ist so ein Gericht in einer Minute fertig. Das ist auch wichtig, weil dass macht den Wok Geschmack aus. Vollgas in kürzester Zeit. Jedes Gericht braucht da gefühlt 10 Minuten, klar das es dann dauert wenn es voll ist. Und damit es spicy wird, wird immer diese billige Sriracha verwendet. Warum nicht din paar Thai Chillis…das macht ja auch den Geschmack bzw. Autenzität aus??? Und beim Curry, Kaffir Blätter und Thai Basil sind da leider auch ein Fremdwort… Und für den Preis mittlerweile, nee dann besser daheim gewokt. Da bekomme ich autentisches Asia Food für 10% des Preises. Leider mittlerweile so ein ein ein gedeutschter Imbiss wie so oft. War also dieses Mal das Letzte mal. Dafür ist mir das Geld zu schade. Peronal ist aber wie viele schreiben sehr nett und immer mit einem Lächeln unterwegs…"

"Bodenlose Frechheit, die gebratenen Nudeln sind Spaghetti, das Hühnchen hat eine ekelhaftere Konsistenz als Chicken Nuggets bei MC Donalds, und die Pekingsuppe hat mit einer Pekingsuppe nichts mehr gemein, außer den Namen. Frühlingsrollen OK Ich rate jedem von diesem Geschäft ab."

"Hervorzuheben an dieser Lokalität sind absolut die total freundlichen, zuvorkommenden und kompetenten Mitarbeiter. Das Essen war OK. Wir hatten Pizza und die war gut belegt und sehr lecker. Auch meine Kolleginnen waren sehr zufrieden mit ihren Salaten. Die Cocktails waren etwas mehr gewollt, als gekonnt. Fast egal, was wir bestellt haben, geschmeckt haben sie alle recht ähnlich. Alkohol war praktisch keiner drin. Vielleicht sollte man die Strategie überlegen und lieber etwas mehr als 4,99 € verlagen, die Cocktailkarte verschlanken und dafür mehr Qualität anzubieten, aber da es sich um eine Kette handelt, wird dies sicherlich nicht einfach umsetzbar sein. Wir kommen gerne wieder, trinken aber das nächste mal lieber ein Bier."

"Al Forno has amazing food - from their pasta to their made-where-you-can-watch wood burning brick oven pizza!! Overall, the favorite Italian restaurant of my family and friends when they visit us in Esslingen. The only problem - the service is not so great...some days they are friendly and there in a reasonable time - other days, they seem to debate for 15 minutes whether they want to take your order at all. I have a hard time with that. Their prices at lunch for one of their 4 lunch specials are great (7 Euro), but any other item ordered incurs an additional 3-4 Euro for the small lettuce salad and the prices are somewhat high compared to other Italian restaurants in town. They do have sidewalk tables to sit at almost year-round and from March - October, there is a very nice ice cream store next door that also has outside tables (not sure if they will take your order at the pizza tables, but it's worth a try)."
