"one of the few places in giessen that looks like someone actually put a bit of effort on the decoration. trendy enough, nice staff. a very comfy place to get together with your friends in a great meeting point (just outside of the train station)....the coctails are good and in very reasonable prices... well i d prefer a bit less lights at night but thats just a personal opinion. the burgers are great! tottally recomended !"

"Wir gehen öfter in den Asien Palast essen und nehmen meistens das Buffet. Die Auswahl ist riesig und es findet sicher jeder etwas für seinen Geschmack. Wir sind eigentlich noch nie enttäuscht worden. Sollte einmal eine Sache nicht perfekt sein, wurde sofort vom Chef darauf reagiert und man bekam etwas extra zur Entschuldigung. Es ist sehr sauber und man sitzt nie lange vor den leeren Tellern. Das Personal ist durchweg schnell und zuvorkommend, räumt ruckzuck ab und man bekommt auch seine Getränke immer sehr schnell. Den Charakter einer Bahnhofshalle hat das Restaurant trotz seiner Größe nicht. Man hat sich viel Mühe gegeben unterteilte Räume zu schaffen. Viele unserer Freunde sind durch uns zum Asien Palast gekommen und sind ebenfalls sehr zufrieden. Wir gehen immer wieder gern dort essen"

"The restaurant was packed when we arrived on a Saturday night. Interesting décor and a very buzzy atmosphere. Our mains, plus a shared starter and dessert were all quite enjoyable, no real complaints. The wine list was fairly extensive and browsed via an iPad, and...I was pleased to find a number of options served by the glass. Our bill, including a couple of glasses of wine came to around I have been to Giessen a number of times to visit family, and this ranks above most restaurants I have tried out, in terms of food and to a larger extent the wine selection plus the lively atmosphere. They have a bar area as well and a crowd had built up here by the time we finished our meal. Although the menus were not in English, the staff had some basic knowledge. Recommended"

"We were here for a large ceremony, which was meant to include a sparkling wine reception, a three-course meal and dancing. The hotel is more attractive than other similar locations in Giessen. However, they seemed to be very understaffed and poorly organised.The staff didn't know about the wines on the menu (only 6 for this event to choose from) and didn't seem to know who to ask and had the excuse that they were new there, that might be the case but the wines we ended up having had an description of the back of them so she would have only had to look and tell us what they said, and at a restaurant of this level you expect at least one of the staff on hand to know about what they serve. Drinks took quite a long time to come and sometimes the wrong things were brought and for the sparkling wine there were not enough glasses so they had to use regular wine glasses for some people. When the soup was brought out, it took a really long time because there was not enough staff and they stopped bringing the drinks in this time because they could not manage both at the same time, which meant some of us didn't have anything to drink when the soup came and it took several minutes to get drinks after it. The amount of time this took would be understandable if they were serving different soups, but everyone was getting the same thing so there was no need to be careful who got what. The main course and dessert were served on a buffet, which was probably fortunate given how slow they were with the soup. However, they ran out of plates a few times, which needed to be brought to their attention and they also forgot the knifes for the cheese plate. The food was, in spite of all of others issues, excellent. The roast beef and the chicken were especially good. The service level was quite a shame given how good the food was, the place as a very high potential but the lack of service brings it down."

"Ich war nun 2x da, um das Veggie-Angebot zu testen. In der zweiten Woche nach Eröffnung gab nur den Vegan-Burger. Zu der Zeit fand ich das Angebot ein wenig enttäuschend. Dieser hat eine gebratene Aubergine als Patty. An sich hat er jedoch ganz passabel geschmeckt auch wenn der Burger auseinander gefallen ist - jedoch war meine Erwartung viel höher und ich war leider auch eine andere Burgerqualität gewöhnt von einem etwas länger ansässigem Burger-Laden in Gießen, das wohl jeder in der Stadt kennt... :-) Als Beilage wählte ich Chili Cheese Pommes. Die schmeckten gut.Einige Wochen später hat sich das vegetarische Angebot erfreulicherweise erweitert. Es gibt nun auch einen Veggie-Burger mit Gemüsebratling und Halloumi darüber. Daumen hoch für das erweiterte Angebot. Leider war auch jener Burger nicht überzeugend. Der Bratling zerfiel und so langsam passierte dies auch mit dem Burgerbrötchen. Da machten die letzten Bissen nicht mehr so viel Spaß. Als Besteck-ablehnender-Burgeresser (^^) war das leider ein recht hektisches Ende.Zum Lokal an sich. Es ist einladend aufgebaut, sauber, die Küche war sehr flott und der Service ist supernett. Wer also keine großen Ansprüche an (vegetarische) Burger hat. Der kann es gerne einmal probieren. Empfehlen würde ich es jedoch nur bedingt aufgrund der mäßigen Geschmacksqualität."

"Ali's is a short walk from the Giessen train station (bahnhof), and is well worth a visit. The waitstaff is friendly and attentive; the menu is all fish/seafood, and most all the items are grilled and served with a salad and delicious pommes frites (small, round, lightly fried potatoes). My wife ordered the salmon and thought it one of the better-prepared salmon steaks she'd ever had. I order Dorade (whatever that is); it came with skin, head, and bones---but was very delicious. Dinner for two was about 25 Euros and well worth it. If you know Giessen bus lines, this place is just a block from the 802 stop. Give it a try---you won't regret it."

"Wir waren nicht zum ersten Mal zum Sonntagsbrunch da und hatten uns sehr auf den Besuch gefreut. Aber leider wurden wir enttäuscht. Die Auswahl war nicht mehr so gut! Es gab kein Kuchen oder Stückchen. Die Auswahl an herzhafte kleine Häppchen war auch nicht so toll! Das Brot war noch leicht gefroren! Dann wurden die Müsli und Aufstriche früh weggeräumt! Um 13.30 uhr wurde auch schon das warme Essen weggeräumt! Man hatte das Gefühl, das Personal möchte Feierabend machen. Gemütlich ist anders. So kannten wir es nicht. Bei dem Preis, kann man etwas anderes erwarten. Man hätte auch mal überlegen können, die Eierspeisen frisch zu machen. Das bekommen andere Hotels auch hin. Das war für uns wohl der letzte Besuch dort! Schade, sehr Schade"

"Prior to this we had an unpleasant experience at Bar Celona up the road, so entered Justus as it always looked pleasant from the outside.It has a nice warm, old school restaurant-pub style atmosphere and was busy. The staff immediately responded and said a comfortable table would be available shortly. We sat at the bar and since that was comfortable enough, stayed there.The German home cooked food was simply delicious--that was a nice surprise. I had a herring dish and my wife dumplings and we both enjoyed it very much. The portions were a decent size and I tried a Bavarian beer that I've not seen before. Also tried the homemade herbal liquor and that had to be tested a second round;) Very nice, I recommend that.Well done Justus, we will return with friends and family. Keep up with the friendly staff as this is always nice to experience."

"we were more often in olives. there is a really delicious salad with grilled vegetables and vegan balsamicodressing (probably the brot made with ice is simply order a pizzabrot or a disc.) there is a vegan pizza with grilled vegetables on the map, but they can also stand on the pizza itself. or just a delicious pizza marinara. the pizzateig is very tasty and we are happy to come back updated by previous review on 2021-09-19"

"Very courteous, dedicated staff, which is always the place when you need something and can answer questions very extensively so that the impression is that they know their products best. The quorum of food is outstanding and definitely worth its quite high price. Here you know exactly where his flesh comes from and how it grew up. The steaks are grilled to the desired Gar point, which unfortunately is not always perfectly hit. Nevertheless, the food tastes fantastic, both the meat and the supplements, so I can only recommend a visit to Primecut Gießen!"

"I was a student. came back with some family members who had never been here. Waitress (Sandra) wanted to be in another place. She was not rude, but simply not very enthusiastic and never looked up by her buyer. Ordered a double curry sausage that arrived as a single item and was simply not what I consider to be a typical curry sausage: beef sausage instead of bratwurst, small amount of curry ketchup as a side, no other sauces with the potato wedges (not even asked). Wedges were good. The price was fine. The Tuna Bagel we also ordered did not see too much DC, but was okay. Overall somewhat disappointed, but the situation and the outside seats for them something."

"Even before Corona we loved going to the old ice house pancake house because everything is right: a very polite, attentive, but not intrusive service; Fresh, good-tasting food that is good value for money, with a balanced wine list and a cozy atmosphere. Now we wanted to support the restaurant with a visit during this time and are very enthusiastic even under these circumstances. Sure, outside by the river on the terrace the risk of infection is much lower than inside. At the same time, it is very nice to be right on the river and the well-considered one-way street concept prevents you from accidentally getting too close when entering and exiting. The operation is also pleasantly reserved and, reassuringly, always wears a mouth / nose protection. The ice house has proven itself even in difficult times"

"Wir konnten heute (Samstag Nachmittag) noch spontan einen Tisch für abends reservieren, obwohl das Lokal den ganzen Abend über gut gefüllt war und einige Reservierungen vorlagen. Unseren Hund mitzubringen war kein Problem, sie hat sogar einen Napf mit Wasser bekommen. Das Personal war durchweg sehr nett, Extrawünsche bei der Bestellung wurden umgesetzt, das Essen und die Getränke kamen zügig nach der Bestellung; es gab eine große Auswahl an vegetarischen und veganen Gerichten, Soßen und Dressings. Das Restaurant ist schön eingerichtet, die Tische stehen teilweise etwas eng, was aber auch absolut kein großes Hindernis darstellt. Für einen Burger mit Pommes und Getränk muss man ca. 20€ einrechnen, meiner Meinung nach das Geld aber wert."

"I've been here with my girlfriend for dinner. The place was quite full and the service was much faster compared to a couple of months earlier. The food is good, mostly is meet on the Mangal with salad,rice and potatoes. I had a big plate for 2 people for 26 € that make us completely full. Good place in Giessen."

"The food in this restaurant is really delicious, but the service leaves a lot to be desired. You are treated like dirt, which ruins the whole evening. Despite the outside temperature being only 18°C, the terrace windows were completely opened, making it uncomfortably cold in the restaurant. When we asked to close the windows, we were rudely told that this was not possible because otherwise it would be too warm for the waiters, not the guests. Even though it is summer, we know the weather in Germany and know that it can be very, very cold. In addition, the waiters are sometimes in a good mood and friendly, sometimes bad and rude, which makes the experience very unpredictable. Such rude treatment of guests is unacceptable. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this restaurant due to the poor service, even if the food tastes very good."

"Wir waren früher schon sehr gerne im Diyar Sofrasi, nun das erste Mal wieder nach dem Umbau des Lokals und eigenem Umzug. Der neu gestaltete Gästebereich ist hell, bequem und freundlich, aber direkt an unserem Fenster zog es ein wenig. Die Speisekarte kam mir verkleinert vor, vielleicht irre ich mich hier auch. Sollte aber jeder was drauf finden. Wir entschieden uns für Adana und sis kebab. Beides sehr lecker zubereitet. Pommes und Reis als Beilage auch gut zubereitet. Portionen mit dem Salat machen gut satt. Das Lokal war eigentlich ganz gut besucht, trotzdem bekamen wir Essen und Getränke unglaublich schnell: Getränk 1-2 Minuten, Essen circa 10 Minuten. Preis am Ende für 2 große Ayran, 1 Tee, 2 Hauptgerichte bei circa 25 Euro, was angemessen war.Der Service war sehr schnell, leider nicht freundlich - auch nicht unfreundlich, aber man fühlte sich ein bisschen wie am Fließband. Parkplatz direkt daneben, zu Fuß von der Innenstadt aus unbequem, aber möglich. Beim nächsten Gießen-Besuch gehört Diyar Sofrasi wieder zu den in Frage kommenden Lokalen."

"Hello..the service team was very nice and competent...but I can't say that about the chef. For 25 euros to be served a pepper cream schnitzel that was too dark and too dry and chewy is not possible for this price range.If you're already in... When you pick up your bag, you expect the chef to care about the quality. Unfortunately, I have to agree with a few...not recommended "

"So that eating is very good and also delicious, but delicious it is also where different. In my whole life, as a customer, I've never been served soooo badly and I'm pretty upset. We ate something and drank. After we fed our food and our drink was empty, nobody came after 20min and asked us how it tasted and whether we still want something. After that was too stupid, we dressed our jackets and put the wallets on the table, no one came after another 5 minutes. In the end, when we wanted to pay, we weren't even asked if we wanted to pay separately or together. We even have to figure out who has to pay. Apart from that, the bill was simply thrown at the table and we were called the total amount. When leaving the shop was not even said goodbye, although as staff stood directly at the entrance. I prefer to praise the city café, Paprica, Mr. Jones, news cafe and how they all mean. Just in an initial phase, you might want to look at how to serve your customers. Conclusion, once and never again."

"Nach dem ersten Besuch, vor ca einem Jahr, waren wir ganz froh, ein solches Restaurant in Gießen gefunden zu haben. Heute waren wir wieder da, aber die Bedienung war sehr kühl und unfreundlich, das Essen war hauptsächlich nur matschig oder (wahlweise) viel zu trocken. Das Hühnchen nur mit Injera zu essen, birgt fast schon Erstickungsgefahr...Ich habe schon oft äthiopische und eritreische Küche genießen dürfen, qualitativ war das Essen hier leider nicht gut. Die Toilette (Damen) hat warmes Wasser, ist aber sehr dunkel. Es steht ein Wagen mit offenen Behältern mit den verschiedenen Speisen im Gang vor der Theke. Jeder, der das Restaurant betritt, oder auf die Toilette geht, muss daran vorbei, das kommt mir nicht besonders hygienisch vor.Die Atmosphäre könnte sehr schön sein, die Lage des Restaurants ist sehr zentral, Potential hätte das ganze also durchaus... aber erst mal nicht mehr für uns."

"I like to come to this old hunt. It is always clean and busy, so make sure to get your order in ASAP, as sometimes it can be a while for the service. I like the drinks menu and food is always above average. Great place to clear your thirst and eat a bite. From university students are very often prepared for noise... it offers a good atmosphere."
