Baki-Besa Restaurant RaB in Essen

The terrace is beautifully furnished and modern. A large space is available for celebrations. The dining area at the bar has a modern, cozy feel. The pepper cream schnitzel (€18.90) was very tasty. The size of the schnitzel was very good. The homemade coleslaw (€4.90) didn't completely convince me. It was too coarse and undercooked for me (grade 3). For 0.80 cents of mayo, they at least got two sachets. I've also received only one sachet several times. My wife had the meat skewer with fries, rice, ajvar, raw onions (cancelled), and a side coleslaw (€19.90). Here, too, everything was to her satisfaction. The side coleslaw portion can be described as large. We agree on the taste. The service was excellent. Very friendly and courteous.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Baki-Besa Restaurant RaB and would like to share my experience. Overall I give it 3 stars. The location of the restaurant is simply perfect - the view of Lake Baldeney is breathtaking and definitely adds to the atmosphere. It's a nice place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Unfortunately, the food didn't taste as good as I had hoped. The flavors and preparation didn't convince me. Another point that affected my stay was the service. The phone rang loudly and frequently, which I personally found inappropriate and annoying. Unfortunately, it disrupted the cozy atmosphere and I would have liked a solution to be found here. In summary, Baki-Besa Restaurant RaB offers some positive aspects, particularly the location and view, but there is definitely room for improvement when it comes to food and service.

I can highly recommend this restaurant. It is very clean, including the toilets. The staff is very friendly. Everything great

Very tasty food, right on the lake, friendly service, clean

One dinner each in January and February 2025. We were positively impressed by the quality and portion size. I had the world's best grilled dish I had ever eaten. 👍 This evening I had a salad for a change, which was also appealing. The potato in the salad can't help it because it is a variety with little taste. If, like me, you grow different old potato varieties in your garden at home, this is also very difficult for the modern potato. As a chef you can't help it. TOP restaurant with a very hard-working boss and a good atmosphere in the team. Keep it up!!️🙏👌

You can really reach up and give it 5 stars. We tested it by chance on a walk and now we come back more often and are happy to recommend it to others. Incredibly good service, delicious food and a great ambience. LG from Wuppertal

I first became aware of the restaurant through a friend and have walked past here many times... Very friendly and courteous service. We immediately felt at home here. The food was tasty, but for my taste it could have used a little more seasoning. My personal highlight was the view of the lake ♥ while eating

Very friendly service, very tasty food.

Selling a piece of strawberry cake - small and mushy - probably from the previous day for 6.20 euros is really audacious. Never again !!!

Well, let's start with the positive... The view is great... Now for the negative... The schnitzel had no taste, the bratwurst looked catastrophic, there was far too much fat in the processing, so even our children didn't like it. The roll was from at least the day before and was stored in a plastic bag, so it looked like rubber. The fries weren't crispy and they weren't hot either. Although there were enough waiters running around and the restaurant was empty, there was no time to clear the plates after the meal and ask the guests if everything was okay. We even went to the counter to pay. We cannot recommend this restaurant and will not stop there again. P.s. there was no storm at the time. Bright blue sky 😉

Magnificent views of Lake Baldeney included! Very friendly staff, the food was delicious and there was enough quantity at a reasonable price. A cup of coffee in a really small cup. Very tasty, but not worth it. Too bad! The cake was not made in-house (frozen goods). You don't have to have it either. Overall, however, 5 stars because the food, service and location score points. We'll be back!

Service super nice. The salads we ordered were not to our liking. The main ingredient is coleslaws. The chicken schnitzel was raw in the middle. But it was then quickly returned to the kitchen and fried. Nice terrace overlooking the lake. If I go there again, I'll try a main course. Until then I was a bit disappointed.

Not so suitable for coffee ☕ cake 🍰...more for dinner....

Incredibly friendly, very attentive and fast service. Very tasty food. And a particularly pleasant and beautiful atmosphere with a perfect view of Lake Baldeney. We recommend! Very nice after a walk by the lake.

Great place, had a great time. Good menu, friendly staff, affordable prices, beautiful view of the reservoir. Thank you.

Came across this restaurant by chance and were really impressed. The food was very tasty, a great view and very friendly staff would be happy to come again.

Excellent food - very friendly and caring service. Really good grilled food, fresh beer, Aperol and the best view of the lake. Everything very clean and quiet. Conclusion: we'll be back.

Essen Sie in diesem Restaurant kein Schnitzel mit Pfifferlinge. Es ist katastrophal, da vergeht der Hunger, diese Speise hat kein Koch angerichtet

Nettes Restaurant mit gutem Essen 😉

Tolles Essen, tolles Wetter freundliche Menschen und Seeblick was will man mehr. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Sehr ģutes Essen, momentan frischer Spargel vom Buchholzhof.Tolle Location, schöner Blick auf den See.
