"most recently I was visiting the Landhaus Kuckuck, with the highest expectation because of the Michelin Star of the adjoining Maitre restaurant. The food and ambiente was a serious disappointment and any future visitor shall be warned. First one enters the restaurant through the 'smoking area' where cigar smokers pollute the air. Then the waiters try to sell you a particular bottle of red wine before they even know the food you intend to chose. We had the crab salad (which was ok but nothing out of the ordinary), while I had the rabbit - undercooked/raw on the inside (inappropriate for rabbit), on a bed of pickled (sour) pumpkin, interesting, garnished with a drab, tasteless (far too sour) creme fraiche like sauce. All pretense, no substance. As a main course we went for the seasonal goose whose preparation was seriously poor. It was served in two portions, generally a good idea, but each was completely dry, chewy, garnished with a Maggi=like sauce unbecoming of any serious restaurant these days, with red cabbage from the glass, tiny Knoedel (ok) but no consideration was taken as to the differences between leg and breast meat - all equally dry and overcooked. It tasted as if it was prepared the day before and reheated. The chestnuts were equally poorly prepared, no finesse, a shame that the life of one goose (probably, given the small size of the portions each, subdivided onto several customers) was wasted for such poor performance. No proper wine recommendations. Nobody came to ask us during the dinner about whether we are satistfied. When I mentioned that the cook needs to learn how to prepare a goose afterwards, all waiters disappeared, no feedback possible. These people really don't want to learn anything and given that this dinner was expensive and supposedly to celebrate an important occassion, a deep disappointment. We were escorted out with handshake, faking a pseudo-familiarity while nobody made any efforts of improving performance. Nobody should be tricked by the past accolades of this restaurant and the Michelin testers should check this one out if they want to maintain a high reputation for their guide , a drab performance and a real embarrassment. Tellingly , there were only three tables booked during the whole evening we were there - and that during the pre-xmas season.If we had known we woudl certainly not have gone."

we really ate in the maitre in the building and enjoyed an excellent, very accommodating, but not intrusive service.

a cozy restaurant with very friendly service. the chef also likes to come out personally and asks for this and taste.

Went for dinner with my brother. Relative short menu still offers variety choices. Food was excellent, service was attentive. I really liked that the tables were nicely spaced, not right next to each other.
Wiltrud
good day, which did not fit, a reordered soße at the dumplings was too little, should certainly not be taken by another court and without asking the existing dumpling dish, an absolute no go! should know the kitchen!
Erika
the positive first. we really eaten well. but the service was annoying and would have upset me in cheaper locals. but it's not that I really have to ask for every drink two times. from the building they could make more. very old-fashioned!

Not quite as good as earlier in the year. It was very quiet and lacking in atmosphere. The food was of good quality as always but didn't have the wow factor as normally have. My colleagues who were visiting for the first time really enjoyed the experience. Will be back next February

We had booked the main restaurant but there was a slight mix up, no problem, they moved us through to the Michelin Star part of the restaurant but with choice from the main menu card. Fantastic food and service. 4th time I have been here and cannot fault it. (be aware that it is not for the young trendy types, more those that like fine dining in a quiet restaurant.

Attended a wedding reception there and it was just Wonderful!!! The site is beautiful as it surrounded by trees and has a large and rather private outdoor patio. The rooms inside are large and our party of about 80 had tables in one room with the buffet set up in an adjoining room right next door. There was also room for a DJ and dance floor in the room with the dinner tables. Staff was friending, courteous, very responsive and accommodating. They also jung in there with us until the party was over around 4 AM. The buffet was first appetizers, then that buffet was cleared and the dinner buffet was setup, then that was cleared and a dessert buffet was set up. VERY WELL done and everything was...

I had one of the best meals at Landhaus Kuckuck in Cologne.My sister-in-law took me to this restaurant located inside a large park. The setting is very nice and elegant inside. It reminded me of a first class hotel restaurant. There are lots of cuckoo clocks on the walls. This place is ideal for a large groups since there are some separate rooms for a special occasion. But we were just four of us.I had a Dutch herring appetizer which was my liking, one of the best herrings I had. I liked the way they served. I always try to eat something I don't get easily in the States. So, I had a herring appetizer to begin. My main course was fried porcini in cream sauce which was excellent. I highly reco...
