"Certainly would eat here again. This is an 'all you can eat' shushi restaurant that was recommended by a friend who we were visiting and lives locally.We came for a lunchtime sitting with our young family (one 18 months and another 5 years) and friend. The restaurant itself is rather hidden in the back streets and certainly not likely to be on the main beaten path of many tourists. When we arrived there were not many others eating and the interior is deciptive with more seating hidden around corners (We had originally thought it was empty). The interior is pleasant, with tables of dark wood, glass covered with the odd sushi model placed under the glass which intrigued our little 'uns. As you go in, you go past the location where the sushi is made and if you want you can watch the fascinating process. We were offered a high chair for our youngest which we took advantage of, although he preferred sitting on my lap for the occassion (Incidentally the toilets are decent and situated down some stairs. There was a portable baby change placed outside the toilets themselves, but it is JUST the change mat. So you'd need to go into the toilets themselves to wash hands, etc). Service we found was top notch and very quick. Almost instantenous sometimes! Our friend commented that even when busy the longest he ever had to wait was 5 minutes for something to turn up. Menus are offered in German and English (helpful for a non-German speaking individual like me) and presented with images of each item of food as well you get an impression of what it is going to be like. The lunch time menu differs slightly from the evening menu in that there is slightly less on offer, which from my point of view this meant things like eel and Queen scallop were not available when you browsed the 'additional evening section'. The menu was well organised and divided into sushi, salads and soups, hot items, drinks, evening additional options and extras (a few sashimi side dishes and one of lightly cooked scallops. Each a few euros extra). Ordering was different and certainly interesting for all of us (especially the children) as it's by a customised iPad/table PC. At the time of writing the buffet system works by allowing each person the opportunity to order upto 6 items each per round at lunch time (5 per person per round in the evening). So for us we were able to select upto 24 items each round (you can order more than one of each item each time if you want). Although 10 rounds are stated as maximum you can have more. Once you've sent off your collective order there is a 5 minute cool down before you can order again. Drinks are not included in the buffet price. Once ordered food is delivered quickly and as it becomes ready, so don't expect to wait for it all to become ready at the same time. From sushi I've had before this was certainly some of the nicest and also a good selection (combinations of tuna, salmon, butter fish, advocado, omlet, fish roe, etc). Wasabi is not used as standard (as I've come across at some places), but can be ordered as a side dip. Portion size can be deceptive, such that the portions you get with the hot food are larger and more filling than expected.All you can eat is certainly the case and as a group we only survived 3 rounds, but that was 48 items we worked our way through between us in those first two rounds. The third round becoming exclusively icecreams and banana fritters for desert (not sure how anybody even had space for those)"

"Nie wieder. Personal ist unhöflich und ruppig. Ein Essen wurde falsch zubereitet. Kein Bedauern oder Ähnliches. Musste selber ca. 4 mal aufstehen. Personal kommt auch dann nicht zum Gast. Preise sind anspruchsvoll eher hoch…. Nachtrag auf die Antwort vom Curry Masala. Ich selbst werde kein Geld mehr bei dem Laden lassen. Mit Kopfhörern im Ohr und dementsprechend unkonzentriert wurde dort meine Reklamation angenommen. Der Koch habe sich vertan. Nach dem Motto: ich bin unschuldig. Dass das Essen aber über die Theke des Kassierers ging, davon kein Wort. Meine Begleitung und ich kennen die Gerichte nicht auswendig. Aber das Personal sollte es aber erkennen. Die Vorsuppe war wässrig. Meine Freundin hatte zuvor in der Filiale in Essen diese gegessen und mir empfohlen.Nach Brot musste ich fragen. Natürlich musste ich zum Tresen gehen und dann nochmal um und es selber abholen. Es waren nur zwei andere Gäste mit Kind dort. Also nicht überfüllt. Ein bringen der Beilagen , damit ich in Ruhe essen kann wäre möglich gewesen Übrigens war es mein Geburtstag und ich wollte meine Freundin zum Essen ausführen und einen schönen Nachmittag haben. Dieses hat das Personal mit seinem abfälligen Verhalten durchaus versaut. Schön, dass Sie Ihre Abläufe ändern oder überprüfen, davon habe ich ja nichts. Die Quittung kann ich Ihnen gerne vorzeigen"

Terrasse • Italienisch • Ort Zum Feiern • Warme Mahlzeiten


"in the ludwigstraße, a crossing of the bridge street, is the Italian restaurant vabene opposite the concert hall. the name of the Italian restaurant may appear strange at first sight, because the operator is a door-to-door, so strange to my opinion, but also an Italian restaurant operated by German. Why I haven't been there for so long, I can't say, maybe because the famous circle has changed and they have other natives. the vabene is modern and brightly furnished, the seating furniture is comfortable, but the distances between the tables could be a little bigger. with good weather or as banished smokers, they can also take some tables in the outside area. the services are consistently friendly, ready to advise and work quickly and thoroughly without working. there is what they can expect in a Mediterranean restaurant, there are meat and fish dishes, antipasti, salate, pizza (in three sizes and pasta, but also for example baked potatoes. because I was a little inconclusive, I ordered a pizza special medium size, as if from everything something (6.45€ and as a drink a alcohol-free jever (2.40€) 0.33l) the pizza came, she tasted good, but for me was the thick floor and the mighty only too much so that I had to fit after half. the service asked a little worried if it didn't taste, and on my explanation the half of the remaining pizza was packed and given me (I quickly found a customer for it. . next visit I will order a small pizza, how could be a big one, and who would do it? it would still be interesting to find out if this vabene had something to do with it in the Thier gallery."
