Bellini im Ratskeller in Gotha

There were two of us there. The food tasted good. Unfortunately my beef roulade with red cabbage and dumplings was only lukewarm. My wife's pasta dish was forgotten in the kitchen and ended up being served after I had already finished eating. So that leads to this rating. It's a shame actually.

An all around positive experience. The location is appealing, the waiters are attentive and very friendly and the food is really recommended. The mushroom and pumpkin dishes in particular were a hit, big praise for the kitchen.

The food was very tasty and the Thuringian cuisine is a culinary highlight. Thanks so much.

Great value for money. Very nice staff and delicious food.

First my main course of pork fillet with Championg was served to me incorrectly, about 3 minutes later it came again, but without my Championg sauce, I waited another 5 minutes for the Championgs, in the meantime the Pommers and the vegetables were cold. SORRY dear Ratskeller, unfortunately that was nothing.

Unfortunately the food was an absolute failure. Quality and price don't match here. Tasteless and zero attention to detail. Cheese sauce with chicken, mango and tagliatelle underneath you can imagine something special. Unfortunately it wasn't, it was all a mess with no taste. The mango was carelessly arranged in huge pieces on top. Tagliatelle with mushrooms current season menu large pieces of fat in the food here too. In any case, we don't recommend this place; instead, we'd rather go to another Italian restaurant in town. In short, we've never had such bad food in Gotha.

This Ratskeller actually has a great ambience, but unfortunately it's just standard. The service is good and friendly, but the food is just standard

The ice cream was average and very heavily colored. The waiters were nice, but I wonder why some of them have to be dressed up like a woman...

Traditional Thuringian and Italian cuisine. Very tasty dishes.

Salt potatoes for bratwurst? And also hard,,!!!!!I was very disappointed.......

There were 7 of us today in the Ratskeller. Super nice atmosphere, friendly staff and you absolutely can't complain about the price either. Definitely worth a visit.

Great service, delicious food and a lovely atmosphere. There were 13 of us and everyone really enjoyed it and enjoyed it! We'd love to come back!!!

There were 9 of us in the outdoor area and we were served super quickly and nicely. Only then did we see the beautiful rooms inside. Simply recommended.

Very hospitable restaurant. And: a restaurant that offers lunch. The food is first class - for example, the schnitzel is truly Viennese style. In addition to the standard dishes, there are also seasonal offerings; now in autumn e.g. B. pumpkin or fresh wild mushrooms. Delicious. My special praise to the kitchen.

Very friendly, fast, courteous service. Food tasted perfect. Very clean. Any time

Top restaurant Kitchen top Service top Boss top

The staff are friendly and helpful and nice and everything is clean etc.

Great staff, good location. The food was really ok, not outstanding, but not bad either. Given the slightly higher prices, the quality and taste should simply have been at a higher level. When it comes to criticism, it must be said clearly that we were full and no one had any aches and pains afterwards.

Very good location, good food and nice service. A real restaurant tip in Gotha. Here you can sit outside directly on the market square or inside in a cozy, upscale atmosphere. The food is good - but it depends on what you eat. We ate turkey medallions with vegetables and fries - highly recommended. Perfectly cooked. There was also lasagna. This is not recommended. The service is courteous and nice. The price per person with one dish and one drink is around €20. Gladly again.

The staff is very friendly, there is a wide selection of food. We had two pumpkin dishes from the seasonal menu, which we combined with side dishes. The portions are large. The restaurant can be recommended.

I don't know how positive reviews can come about here - we let the food go back - in terms of taste and the degree of heat it reminded me of the school lunches from buckets in the GDR era - never again!!!

Great ambience, friendly and humorous service, the food is very tasty, there is something for every taste. Price - performance top! Highly recommended!!

A medium to high priced restaurant. I chose zander, I only got a small piece, the spinach was very spicy and the fries were borderline salty. For the dumplings with wild mushrooms, my wife was able to look for the mushrooms in the sauce. With an extra charge of €5 it's very steep. At the next table the spaghetti with mushroom sauce was complained about as being much too spicy. We cannot recommend this restaurant.

It's a beautiful restaurant in the middle of Gotha, right next to the old town hall. Fast service (a little too fast even if you want a break between courses), very nice staff and super tasty dishes

Looks posh, is quite expensive, but the food is rubbish - from portions to quality and taste. Really just a tourist trap, with a good location in mind, but nothing else to show for the prices asked there. At least the staff is friendly.

Great ambience and nice service staff. We also liked the dishes, although unfortunately I was looking for the “creamy” wild mushroom soup 😅. Unfortunately there was only a thin, uncreamy soup with wild mushrooms in it. But the black beer roast and the schnitzel with wild mushrooms were excellent.

Hello, me and my wife were very satisfied and can only say keep it up, the guests will thank you

The service was good, although I had the feeling that the young service team was slightly overwhelmed. It seemed that some of them were first-year students or temporary workers. But everyone was really friendly and made a real effort, which is why 4 out of 5 stars for the service. The ambience is okay. The food is, in my opinion, rather average. Unfortunately, the quality of the meat didn't convince me.

Food is ok and service is cool and funny. You can go there.👍

Thuringian Rostbrätel is very tasty and always good

Service was perfect, very friendly and entertaining. The ice cream was also super delicious.

Unfortunately I can't recommend it. The food was ok, but nothing exceptional. The staff is not very nice to the guests. Sorry

The ambience is inviting, although very kitschy with the windows full of dust collectors. The service is extremely attentive. Unfortunately you can't tell from the outside that it's Italian. The Thuringian dishes are correspondingly poor. The vegetables from the can or bag and a roast meat with peppers, completely atypical. Very mediocre in taste and not very high quality. Prices, however, are quite high.

Overwhelmed service: the food was only brought to two other tables because the waiter no longer knew who had ordered what. It ended up being lukewarm at best. For the price, the Thuringian bratwurst was very small. All in all not really recommended.

The pizza was good, the service was a bit unfriendly and somehow not really on point. We were served by a total of 4 different waiters, all of whom hardly exchanged a word with us. It was all pretty uncomfortable, just some quick Italian food, yes , stay longer, no...

Very nice, cozy and the food is super delicious.

Good food, very tasty and good service

Omg the ice cream wasn’t what i expected It wasn’t Not satisfied I won’t recommend their Ice cream.

Very good restaurant, menu offers something for every guest. You should definitely visit Gotha.

Beautiful place to eat, food is great and always delicious, service feels delayed but this seems to be due to a constant large flow of customers

Great atmosphere. Ratskeller no German cuisine. According to the motto “Schuster stick to your lasts” you should only choose Italian dishes. The kitchen doesn’t have a “good” approach to German food. It looks good, but unfortunately the taste/quality wasn't right.

Unfriendly waiters who don't know the numbers of your dishes. Chicken not cooked through in salad. Price performance doesn't fit.

In summer it's great to spend time outside with good food and good drinks. Service is always prompt and friendly.

Very empty at lunchtime at 2 p.m. otherwise nice bratwurst and ice cream were both very tasty and can only recommend the place

Food was okay. A bit too expensive for the quality. Nothing special 🤷🏼. Service not good. Awkward and not particularly attentive. The whole thing is loveless. Plastic flower on the table... The back area towards the toilet isn't particularly well maintained, it's a shame

Had ice cream there today and the cream tasted completely like butter. The service did not take the problem seriously. When paying, you are not asked whether you want to pay separately or together and there was no goodbye either. Very unfriendly Was definitely our last visit. It's a shame that you can't give minus stars here.

I have rarely experienced such unfriendly employees. Four of us were eating ice cream and after we informed them that there was something wrong with the cream because it looked lumpy and was far too buttery, we were not taken seriously and were treated much worse afterwards than at the beginning. He allegedly passed on our request and when we wanted to pay, he didn't even ask if we wanted to pay together or separately and literally threw the bill on the table to my partner. It's a disgrace that the waiter didn't even say goodbye to us after paying, since of course there was no tip.

Ordered a table for 6 p.m., still had no food on the table at 8 p.m., drove home without food. Never again.

Sundae definitely not as advertised on the menu. The taste isn't that great either.

We haven't eaten so badly in a long time. My Thuringian dumplings with goulash and red cabbage....no taste, the sauce was watery and the meat...well.... The waiter was overwhelmed, tense, couldn't remember who ordered what, when. There was a lot of back and forth with the orders...Please be sure to make improvements!!!!!

Very clean, comfortable, you can sit outside the Rat Haus Küken it is in the middle of the city very satisfied friendly conditions, you can also sit inside very nice food tastes delicious I can recommend it.

First of all I have to say that the food was really excellent and the atmosphere is really nice when you can sit outside, but I still have a few things to complain about... The straw on my Lillet still had lipstick on it from the previous guest, which unfortunately I only noticed after I had drunk something. I found it very disgusting! But the young waiter just asked why I wasn't wearing lipstick.. (was that supposed to be funny?) He took the straw with him and brought a new one.. He owed me an apology or something like that!! My companion and I each ordered a pasta dish.. When the dishes came, we realized that one was wrong... we hadn't ordered it! It was confirmed that it was apparently a mistake on the part of the kitchen. So I ate my pasta alone and my companion got their food exactly 5 minutes after I was finished. This time there was an apology, but only that... No free coffee as an excuse, restaurateurs don't seem to do that anymore these days! What also amused me a lot... the waiters, at least some of them seem to "really love their job" - at least this was quite credibly expressed several times as we walked past 😉 Conclusion: excellent food, the rest... well

An atmosphere like at the train station. At 8 p.m. the tables and chairs began to be cleared away. It was probably a nuisance. The starter came with the main course, which we later got back warmed up. The noodles were correspondingly mushy and even though my husband didn't want arugula, he had it twice. He actually wanted to eat pizza, but was told it wasn't available anymore. An hour later, other guests ordered pizza and received it. We then had to be insulted by these guests because we had questioned the matter. I actually thought the TV with the hidden camera was just around the corner. Unfortunately only the waiter with the complete bill did not respond to this disaster. Experience gastronomy of a different kind.

Very friendly, cheerful, positive. It's fun to eat here. And it tasted excellent. Absolute recommendation. 👍🏻

Is not recommended Pizza was ordered was rejected with the reason that it was out so I ordered pasta without arugula of course the pasta with arugula came and the starter came with the main course 15 minutes later four people at the next table ordered pizza I went to the waiter I thought the pizzas were out A cursory apology was all so not recommended you are being ripped off across the board they don't listen and bring the wrong thing not even worth one star miserable

Long wait for food 1 hour at shortest

Somewhat surprising that the Ratskeller is Italian. Local specialties are also offered and the Thuringian black beer roast tasted good. There are seating options inside and outside, whereby you can look directly at the town hall when sitting in front of the house or under the parasol.

Very arrogant, service leaves a lot to be desired. Once and never again...

Always beautiful! A particular highlight on Saturday: Vincenco invited the “Polars” to the lower main market. A great evening, (enough) friendly staff, delicious food, chilled drinks. Thanks for the lovely evening! Gunter, Manu, Kerstin and Andi

Located in the center of Gotha, it is very convenient for all customers. vacationers and guests. The food tastes perfect. There is all sorts of Italian cuisine here. I like it

We waited a really long time and we were ignored the whole time. We waited about 20 minutes...

I just had something to drink at lunchtime, but it was okay, but nothing special

Not a nice atmosphere. The “boss” walks around the store arrogantly and doesn’t answer questions. You can't feel comfortable in such conditions. The boss depends on the guests and his staff!!! But we didn't have the feeling that he saw it that way.

I'm happy to give 5 stars because everything is right here: beautiful location right next to the historic town hall, delicious food and friendly staff. Top.

Once again everything was great. Food was very tasty and service was great again, everyone was very friendly. Always my pleasure

It was always an experience to see this building from the Schellenbrunnen. This building, built in two columns, with its own bells and tower, extends from Marktstrasse to Buttergasse. A large restaurant and coffee crown the view. The large umbrellas with tables invite you to linger and enjoy on hot days. ☕️🍹 Many people only see that there is a tower with a base of a pillar when they stand in front of it and think how that works🤔 and there is also a corner entrance. Even back then, people built things that were different, but very beautiful.

I cannot imagine how all the other reviews talk about the service. We came here on a monday afternoon to eat a pizza. We could pick out our own table and got helped right away. The service was quick and they even helped with the wasp problem around our drinks. The pizza's we had were amazing! I myself prefer a little bit less oil on the pizza but i think the salami was to blame for that hahaha. When we paid the server was really nice and even joked about the 5 euro bill we gave him (he thought it was fake since it was an old one). Overall a very good experience!

You don't even get what you order and then the staff is unfriendly...

Very friendly, courteous service, plenty of choice of food and drinks, large pizza, penne arabiata, especially for lunch, too small! Brusccetta is great!

Was a relaxed evening. The food came quickly and was very tasty. Always recommended for a relaxing evening.

Very nice evening, but one waiter doesn't know how to joke at all and interferes with other conversations with stupid comments

Highly recommended. Wonderful outdoor spaces, very attentive service. If you don't like Thuringian specialties, there is a wide selection of really good Italian cuisine.

Very tasty and friendly waiters.

I think it's great that it's barrier-free

We visited more than once. Previously, a lot of tasty... Now... I think 2 stars is a lot. Last visit... The cutlery was dirty, we were chasing the waiter to serve us, the food... Schnitzel with cheese sauce. About a year ago, a large portion, gorgonzola sauce... And the last visit. The fries look like they were made of gold, such a portion, the sauce looks like from a package from Tom's. And most likely the last visit. Cost cutting has been visible for some time. And changing the kitchen staff for the worse. If things came back to normal, we would love to visit again.

The food was good, the staff ok.

The “Thuringian food” was probably more out of the box, overpriced and bad. The service was friendly and fun thanks to the immigrant waiters. It's actually a nice place, but the decision to eat at an Italian restaurant next time was the right one.

Nice ambience and attentive service. However, this couldn't make up for the bad food. Neither dumplings, roulade, roast in black beer were freshly prepared, probably not even homemade. Half of the food was cold. Maybe you can eat very good Italian food there, but definitely not German. Never again... The restaurant is not barrier-free! To get to the toilet there is a long staircase that leads to the even deeper basement.

Fast and very polite service. Food was quick, good and very tasty. Prices are also okay. We'd love to come back

Good food for the price. Extra requests are welcomed with a smile. Service must be highlighted, especially Armin. Clever and entertaining. We would love to come again 🤗

The opening times are not very tourist-friendly due to a lack of staff... Opening hours only from 5.30 p.m....kitchen from 6 p.m....

Very tasty food and great atmosphere and great service was with us very quickly

The ambience and service are top, but they couldn't make up for the miserable food. Apparently ready-made dishes: roulade tough, cold and not tasty and very questionably homemade. Dumplings are definitely ready-made dumplings. Even the red cabbage was bland and warmed up. All of this for the proud price of 19.90. impudence.

The food was very tasty until I suddenly had two pieces of plastic in my mouth. I immediately contacted the boss and he took the pieces with him. There was no apology or anything.

There were 11 of us on New Year's Eve. Ordered pasta with turkey breast and mango cream sauce to be picked up, €18.50 per meal! Below all dignity, just pasta mush, not edible! Discussion with boss was not possible! Never again Ratskeller!!

Friendly, clean and the food was good. Because the ice cream is sold at the entrance, you are a bit irritated at first.

Fantastic, the price is very good 👍

2 cups of coffee for €10, unfriendly service. Good location isn't everything.

The location makes up for a lot. Service was always on site, quick and attentive. However, the food still leaves room for improvement. Partly cold, boring taste. Delay in receiving the food, so that we couldn't eat together after a 20 minute delay.

The first time I was there, I noticed that the staff didn't want to work. I wanted to give a second ski jump. Was a big mistake. Staff haven't changed their attitude, still don't feel like working. The food was overpriced and there was hardly anything on the plate for the price. Just a few fries on the plate and a schnitzel that you could see through if it weren't for the breading. Unless you are known to the staff, you are not welcome here. Never again

A visit for coffee and tea. A Ratsweinkeller is almost always a top address in Germany. Unfortunately not in Gotha. Our starter didn't come, the waiter lied about the cake - said the apple pie was freshly baked. It was clearly a finished cake, frozen goods. A mini portion. My random observation at the pizza oven is even worse😱 It was obviously important to the waiter that no guest noticed what he was doing😱 It's a shame that an Italian is no longer really Italian and has nothing in common with the quality of a real Italian restaurant other than the name

It should be a nice girls' evening with good food and conversation. We entered the restaurant around 6 p.m. and left at 7:50 p.m. after the waiter kept asking if we wanted to order anything else. When we asked about the opening times they said... There are no regular opening hours, we would be the last ones and they would like to close. A restaurant in Gotha's center wants to close at 7:45 p.m.!!!!!!! Okay!! Cheers to Thuringian hospitality. The menu is difficult to understand and confusing. The ambience is nice and the service was friendly, until the notice that it was about to close. Another negative thing was that it was cold and drafty in the room.

There were three of us and we just wanted something to drink. The request for an ashtray was then met with a full ashtray. Very bored waiter, the floor (outside area) very dirty with napkins, silver foil, butts and candy wrappers... and all of this in front of the backdrop of the town hall... never again!

In the afternoon I ordered a coffee with tiramisu (I keep wondering what is served as tiramisu at Italian restaurants in Germany 🤔. There are four ingredients, 4!!! or 5 if you add amaretto and cocoa on top). Well, a 3/10. My ice cream "banana split" was quite ok, the creaminess of the chocolate ice cream left a lot to be desired 6/10. The environment at the market is very quiet and it's quite comfortable to sit outside.

Good service and very tasty food. There was a large selection, including vegetarian dishes. Clear recommendation!

1 pot of filter coffee for €5 is probably a bit excessive!

Delicious. Great Italian and Thuringian cuisine. Nice service. Nice location in the city center.

Delicious pizza and pasta, friendly staff and fair prices, highly recommended.

Service was good, but shall we say, mischievous? And “on a first-name basis.” Unfortunately, that didn't quite fit into the framework. Otherwise everything was delicious and the price was very good for the restaurant “am Platz”👍

Service works like this. I just say open your eyes when ordering and also when paying. Otherwise not bad.
