"We where in Cologne for a trade show and we wanted to take a colleague out for dinner. We choose Bayleaf because of the reviews on Tripadvisor and the food did not disappoint. We each had a steak which was excellent quality, well seasoned and...well cooked. The side dishes where limited and I do not think they matched the quality of the main dish. The drinks menu had a good variety to satisfy the needs of the entire group. Service was a little cumbersome but I think that was due to the fact that our German was limited and the English of our waiter was limited, but it did not detract from the overall experience. The best thing about the restaurant was the fact that even during a busy trade show in Cologne we where the only diners downstairs in the restaurant which meant that there was no noise and we could sit quietly have a nice conversation without having to shout at one another."

We were with 3 and decided to take the Pairing menu with matching cocktails. You can choose for the 3 course variant or add the Catch of the Day. The matching cocktails are great fun....and really match with the flavours of the food. Not cheap... €72 per person for 4 course plus 4 cocktails) but everything is fresh and quality. Friendly service and passionate bartender. Highly recommended if you want something else than wine. View menu

This is by far the best restaurant experience you can get right now in Cologne. It makes you feel like you are in New York, Sydney or Tokyo. I have been there twice already and during my first visit I was even allowed to have...a look at the kitchen in their fine dining restaurant Ox&Klee which is located on the first floor. Staff: The whole staff is very friendly and attentive only the barkeeper is a bit to quirky in my opinion... Food: The Cocktail&Food pairing is a great concept which works out very well. I highly recommend Bayleaf.

We 've known Ox Klee since they were located near Rudolfplatz, in the city center. The Michelin Starred Restaurant moved in to the 'Kranhaus 1 ' since early autumn 2016 along with the new bar 'Bayleaf '. We enjoyed of course already the new Ox Klee...on the 1st floor but Bayleaf was just last weekend. Its nice to see the familiar faces again. Warmth and authentic. The Bartender was awesome. Very entretaining. We had the Pairing Menu, my betterhalf enjoyed the orig. cocktail pairing and I got the mix 2 alc and 2 nonalc Coctails since I gotta drive home that night. What an experience! Everything is well thought and presented. An absolute muss!

"In a 5-day stay in Cologne and as a lover of Indian cuisine, we had planned the Ginti. The visit took place on Monday to the beginning of noon. The reception was very friendly and cordial by the Lord of the House. The decor in Ginti is very modern, stylish, but also somewhat sterile and only very discreet supplements with Indian accessories. Young guests will probably find favors in the style of the institution. The place was still empty and so there was a chance to get a brief conversation with the mistress of the house. She brought us the menus, and there were Papadam with three from a culinary point of view pretty boring finished dives. We chose both a mango sauce as a drink that was thin and most likely prepared on the basis of a mango powder. Disgusting! I ordered as main dish Malai Kofta, vegetable balls in a mild curry sauce with ginger, garlic, almonds and coconut. This is not only one of my favorite Indian dishes, but it is also a dish that places higher requirements on a kitchen and therefore cannot be found in any Indian restaurant on the menu. In addition, quality and freshness can be well valued with this bowl. I ordered this dish with a higher sharpness, but not through the sauce, but ultimately through the vegetable balls themselves. The latter were produced excellently and their loose inner composition had the freshness of the preparation felt. This was undoubtedly a 5-star court. My accompaniment had opted for Tandoori King Prawn Masala, marinated royal cloves from Tandoor in a sauce with tomatoes, cashew nuts and raisins. This dish was also very tasty, rather mild and very generous in the number of shrimps. The rice was served unfavorably on an open bowl and had to measure any fragrance and aroma that could originate from cardamom capsules or spice cloves. After the main dishes were convinced, we were curious about the Indian ice cream, Kulfi. This came visually well over a carrot cut into slices, but could not be along tasteful. It was crystallized, little creamy and the aromas of the aforementioned mango powder were reappeared. Conclusion: a highly recommended Indian restaurant due to the excellent main dishes, but not yet matured in its culinary periphery. Therefore, provisionally three stars with an inclination to four."
