BLOCK HOUSE Am Aegi in Hannover

I would have expected more for the money

So far we have always been satisfied. The last time we visited we weren't at all happy - the quality of the meat wasn't as usual. And it was totally over-fatty.

The food was good as always, only the steaks were a little too browned and the roasting was too intense. The service was very good. Since there were a lot of guests standing at the entrance without reservations, we unfortunately felt a bit under pressure.

After a short wait, we got a seat unannounced. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Best local food in Hannover. Stunning beer, well kept and clean, good and polite service. Highly recommended for everybody, especially foreigners visiting

Generally good food and friendly service! Always my pleasure!

The food itself tasted good, but the filet mignon and the potato were really mini! Value for money is not there at all, I get three times as much at the Turkish restaurant. Sorry but this is the last time for us today!

The service takes far too long to notice you. The steak was also rather average, and unfortunately it wasn't fried to the desired level. Overall very disappointing

It was a great evening, delicious food and nice service. Would love to come back

Great atmosphere, great service and great food. More than recommended!

So the meat is sometimes a 10/10 and sometimes more like a 7/10 because (in our opinion) there is too much fat. The staff is always great, but it's usually very busy so that you can hardly understand your own words.

Delicious food & also child-friendly.

We used to love coming here. Unfortunately, it's gone downhill. The steak was stringy and the potatoes were quite small. 😔

Perfect service from Mr. Goytum. Very accommodating, noticed that we were celebrating a birthday and that we had intolerances without us explicitly mentioning it. Great, thank you very much.

The steaks were grilled well, and the salad was fresh and crispy. The service was very fast and attentive. However, we didn't like the somewhat bland appearance of the dishes. There was just the potato, the steak, and the bread on the plate. For just under €30, it wasn't that attractive. The taste was good, but that's also important given the price. I would have also preferred a dish with several steaks as a variation on the plate.

Food good as always, but today at lunchtime we waited 1 1/2 hours for our food (it wasn't the service), with 8 business partners!!! Telcos and follow-up meetings, all gone. You definitely have to do better ;-(

Steaks as always very, very tasty. Unfortunately I didn't like it at all, there were four of us, I had a starter, the others got the salad first. While I was still "busy" with my starter, the service with the main courses suddenly appeared and the plate with the main course was pushed next to my plate with the starter. Somehow it doesn't work at all!

Delicious food, sometimes it takes a little longer for the food to arrive

We had booked a table for 9 people on Saturday for the 5:30-7:00 p.m. time slot. We were there at 5 p.m. and were politely asked to wait outside. Unfortunately, when we asked to have a drink standing up, it wasn't possible because there wasn't enough space... when the guests left our assigned table, we were able to take the table on time at 5:30 p.m. The service and food was very good. When we were finished with the main course we were offered a dessert. Since we were all full, we politely refused the waiter and asked for the bill at 6:30 p.m. We received these promptly! When we had paid we were then informed that the next group was already waiting. It was 6:35 p.m The women each had half a glass of wine which they wanted to drink (7.50 euros per glass). Between 6:35 p.m. and 6:45 p.m. the waiter informed us twice that the new group was already waiting. It's a shame that after paying, you're no longer worth being a guest at Blockhaus... the lovely evening had a very bad end for us. You should consider whether you want to pay so much money for this mass processing. We had to leave the restaurant 10 minutes before our booked time slot so that the new group could take their place. If we had ordered dessert we probably would have had to eat it to go

Thank you for allowing me to eat just before work and the kitchen closed. Friendly and good service.

We were invited at the end of December. The atmosphere took us back to the 70s and 80s, which was nice. The service is courteous and friendly. 👍 However, as a vegetarian, there isn't really anything tasty for me. I put something together from the side dishes, with the result that I had 5 individual bowls of side dishes on the table, even though I said so when ordering. 🥱 Well, that could have been solved more gallantly. It's a shame because I came to almost €30.00. It was nothing for me! The meat eaters were enthusiastic about the meat, but not so much about the rest. I think this should also be rethought in order to offer guests something for this “eating out” event at €30-40 per person. Otherwise people will go to restaurants even less, which would be a shame. 😋 If I don't have a super modern facility, maybe I need something different?

Usual good Block House quality and, like everywhere else, great service.

Here you don't notice any excessive prices. Price-performance ratio is great...it tastes good and you don't feel like you're being ripped off here

As always good, traditional atmosphere from the good old days, the food perfect as always. Great service, friendly and accommodating. The only criticism is that the 0.3 beer is a bit excessive at 4 euros.

The food was very good. Steak nice and rare (as ordered) and still very tender. That's how it should be. The employees are all very friendly and cheerful. The restaurant is very large, so the ambience suffers somewhat. We will definitely come back!

All in all very disappointing. It wasn't until we started ordering high-priced steaks and shots that we were treated nicely. The fillet steaks were very different sizes and were charred on the outside. Unfortunately the price/performance ratio is no longer right.

Inan is the best 👍😃 Very friendly and tidy. Highly recommended

We had reserved a table for a business lunch together, which my German colleague registered under his name. Arrived early, I waited at the entrance to be assigned the reserved table. Some service employees walked past me and I tried to keep eye contact, but of course I didn't think anything of it because after all they were probably busy. A couple came up behind me. The service employee who was working at the salad bar noticed this, stopped what she was doing and then asked them if they had made a reservation and then finally brought them to the table, while she just looked at me but paid no other attention. In the end, I thought I had waited too long and told the next service employee that I had made a reservation. I was then brought to the table. My German colleague, who came later, was immediately welcomed and brought to my table. He told me that the service employee said: "There's already an Asian sitting there." And that meant me. I'm not usually one to immediately judge racism, but this was pretty clear to me. The food was good by Blockhouse standards, but luckily there are other Blockhouse restaurants in Hanover that you can go to for that.

Nice dinner with family, great steaks and desserts

Absolutely perfect, great service, great food

We have been visiting the BLOCK HOUSE Am Aegi for ages. We love the steaks, the sour cream and the steak sauce. The quality has been consistently excellent over decades. Even in comparison with other Block House restaurants, the quality of Aegi is particularly noteworthy. We have always received great service here and always felt comfortable. Clear recommendation.

The food is of a decent standard and the service is friendly. Unfortunately, when you make a reservation it is not pointed out that it is only valid for 1.5 hours. If you order a round of drinks after your meal, you will then be informed in a friendly but firm manner that the table will be needed again. Since a visit to a restaurant under time pressure is out of the question for me, that's it for the Blockhouse. With the current rush, no one will be interested in this, I'm aware of that.

Always good. Always very nice and good service!

In my opinion, if you like steaks, this is the place for you.

Hello, I would like to criticize the Blockhouse restaurant at Aegi. It was my girlfriend's birthday and we wanted to have a nice evening. Everyone ordered a nice piece of meat...when the food arrived and we wanted to start eating, we realized that their steak was okay but my steak was almost completely raw on the inside, really like it had been taken out of the fridge, although I ordered medium. Then they took the cut piece of meat back for me, my friend was able to eat alone on her birthday because I waited about 15 minutes until it was brought back. But it didn't get better, when my friend finished eating alone on her birthday, my meat came back, they fried my cut pieces again (you could see the piece of meat was just not good) so that the crust was completely black on the outside, On the contrary, inside it was still raw in most places and I couldn't really eat any of it. All in all, a bad birthday for you, which I'm very sorry about. There was only one chocolate cake for free :)

In any case, the food is very good.

Very, very tasty, very nice service! Always my pleasure!

Simply great, the steak should be put back on the grill and immediately given a full plate - that's what I call service

The best steakhouse in Hanover. Friendly service and excellent food. We'll be back as soon as possible.

Always a pleasure... Price performance is appropriate, top meat, nice service and we always like to come back 👍😄

Visit today. Short waiting time for the table, the toilets were in a very dirty condition. There are also no more toilet seats - which of course doesn't make the impression visually particularly attractive. These should be replaced urgently and there should be checkpoints for cleaning. The service staff was very friendly, but what was noticeable was that other service staff were working with large hoop earrings and nails. When the food came we had a steak which unfortunately wasn't edible - it was replaced but of course we had to eat alone - which was a shame. In terms of taste, everything was normal but not special - the baked potato was also edible, but not a highlight. You could also choose a little better fries for 4.50 and add more sauces to justify the price. Music could also help to curb the loud conversations. Anyone can afford Block House anywhere, but you have to look in which direction the company wants to go?

Everything tasted good. The house meat is recommended. Despite the big city, the prices are ok)). The waiter was also very nice, even lending him his charger. Am satisfied. Gladly again at any time.

It's been a long time since I've had such a perfect steak. Thanks. 👍

Wonderfully tasty, great service and everything of high quality. Gladly again.

Excellent! Table reservation on the phone without any problems. When we arrived there we received a very friendly welcome. The food tasted very good. The service came often and asked if we needed anything. I thought it was very nice. I felt very comfortable there. I would love to come back when I'm nearby

Reserved for 6 pm for family dinner and Block House team could not have a table ready. My 87 year old grandma and child son, all waiting outside with 20 people on same reservation time. Reason: They don't want to ask present guests to clear their table. Super unprofessional. No problem resolution, no remedy by asking us in and offering a hot drink or something. What a poor place

We had a great evening with delicious food (and drinks), friendly service - it was a complete success. Even though it was absolutely full - even because there were so many Christmas parties - you never had the feeling that you were just being "worked off". Thank you and happy holidays

The food was delicious and the hospitality of the staff was exemplary. The waiter sweetened our evening with his warm manner and his individual recommendations.

Super polite service and great food. As always at the Block House 🤝🏻

Just a superb steak. Wonderfully cooked and the baked potato was great to mop up the juice from the steak. They were very busy but managed to fit us in with no issues at all. The staff were great. There a menu online in English if needed which is accessed using a QR code.

I was really surprised on my last visit. The North Sea crabs were replaced by inexpensive Pacific crabs. The salad has also lost quality. Just greens and a piece of tomato! The steak is only served at 230 grams. Everything, mind you, at unchanged prices! If that's Ms. Block's new philosophy...

I thought it was excellent today. It was delicious, the price was reasonable, everyone was friendly - I can't complain. I am completely happy and satisfied. Thank you

Fair prices, great food, ambience, it's best not to go at times when it's fully booked. The volume can get quite high. Otherwise a clear recommendation

No matter which block house you go to: the quality is equally good and the staff is always great. The portions have now been reduced slightly so that the prices don't rise so much. The 160g sirloin steak with side dishes was more than enough for us.

Super nice service and the food was very tasty! Only reserve a spot early on weekends, otherwise you have to expect waiting times. Price-performance perfect.

Everything was great, very tasty. Thanks *****

An excellent option in Hannover, delicious cuts of meat, and despite being full due to the EuroTier fair, excellent service from the entrance to the waiters.

The waiter was really very accommodating. The food at Blockhouse is always very good.

After 15 minutes of waiting in the anteroom, we left again. There were 12 people in front of us who were also waiting for a table and the whole thing was around 6 p.m.! A previous reservation by telephone was rejected.

Top service and super delicious food.

I come in with my girlfriend, 90% of the store is empty, but we are left standing in the reception area for a very long time. The employee chatted humidly and cheerfully as we waited at reception. Most of the store is empty. We are seated at a table that is directly behind the cloakroom. From there you can raise your hand 100 times and no waiter will see it. When I mentioned this to the waitress, she told me it was a bit crowded today. That really makes me laugh. The waitress is also waiting for a tip for the poor service. Blockhaus, you should perhaps train your employees a little better. My bottle of wine didn't arrive until after I finished my steak. The only thing that was good was my steak. Too bad.

Except for the somewhat “old-fashioned” atmosphere, always recommended 🤩😋

Super attentive service. Can be recommended.

What else can you give Blockhouse other than full marks? Genci was a super attentive host. Thank you!!

Too busy on this Friday Meat nice and neat. Taste OK. Expensive in proportion. Charged for extra salad. Fries charged extra to the standard baked potato (which was very good!). Service friendly but too busy... Tastes differ...

Blockhouse, what should I write? As always perfect, nice service, delicious steak. Simply perfect 👌🏻

Good quality meat well done according to the degree of doneness We ate a bunch of people who ordered different types of steaks, chestnut soup which were delicious.

The T steak was terribl. The potato was not tasty. Colslo salad not tasty.

Everything was great, the food was super tasty (even though it was the first time I had a steak like this and ate it 🤪), great service. Only to recommend

Enjoy your meal! Very good meat. It's a good address.

I was there on a Friday evening and it was packed and very loud. There was something about clearance. The food was ok, but too expensive for the portion size.

Very tasty soup, great steak to the point, good service. A steak evening as it should be. However, the price for the American tenderloin was already very high. I'd love to come back.

Great service - very attentive. As always - delicious food. Very well maintained restaurant.

Very good food and also good price 👍🏻

Very nice and funny service. The lady, a little older, was fun for everyone, even though the restaurant was very full and she had already worked for a few hours. The food was good, even if the person preparing it gave the impression that he lacked the necessary motivation. All in all, we were full and can recommend this restaurant

Very tasty food and super nice service.

Were seated at a table on a Saturday evening without a reservation after some waiting. The service was attentive and friendly even though the store was full and there was a lot to do. The order was taken quickly and the waiting time for the food was pleasantly short. Since we wanted to go further, we asked after the starter if we could pay so that we could go straight after the main course. This was quickly made possible and the main course arrived after a short time. A really great service. The food is of the well-known Block House quality and the steaks were cooked well.

We wouldn't be here for the first time today. The food was very good as usual. The evening was truly a rare experience for us thanks to the fantastic service. We felt very comfortable. Thank you Genci

We were there last night and can only praise it. Every step of the process runs smoothly here, the kitchen is running smoothly and the food comes quickly. Taste wise 10/10! Service is wonderful, always on point and everything in view even when the store is full. The ambience speaks for itself, nice and rustic to feel good. We were very satisfied!

Visit again and order the 12 oz rib eye steak and Italian salad

Gorgeous Simply gorgeous. Every time

Just always perfect, If you want steak as it may be, this is the place for you, hence 5 stars

Three of us guys had the big Oschis from the special menu. 630g, 660g and 890g rump steak. First they advertised 690 instead of 890, then we swapped sizes with each other. Then there was confusion during delivery. What was supposed to be rare was medium-rare and vice versa. The huge beast came back on the grill and he ate late. Some starters were taken but not brought. When asked, my starter was added to the meal (now the table was cramped). All in all, it's a shame that you didn't get a drink as compensation for so much chaos, as waiting guests at the entrance were put off with it. That would have been the minimum, especially since the tip was still reasonable. Everything seemed a bit stiff to handle. Luckily my meat was exactly how I wanted it straight away and was very tasty. Because of that and because I received everything I ordered in the end, no major point deductions.

The food is very tasty, the staff is quick and friendly and I really like the atmosphere. I really enjoy coming here.

We love it in the blockhouse. Always worth a visit. Abee reserves a table.

Unfortunately our steaks were not prepared as well this time. It was still a nice experience.

The food was very tasty. We treated ourselves to ordering the T-bone steak and the fillet steak. Special requests were no problem. The service was very friendly and quick. We felt comfortable. We received the bill in a paper envelope with a self-written thank you, which we thought was nice. Cheaper dishes are of course also available, we just opted for something more expensive.

It's been a long time since I've been to a restaurant/steakhouse where I have absolutely nothing to complain about. Let's start with food: Food was great. The meat was exactly as ordered (medium rare and medium well), the sauces were very tasty and not too little (a huge problem usually), the fries were crispy and sufficiently salted. The desserts were also delicious and not too expensive. Ambiance: It was loud, but that didn't bother us. There's usually nothing you can do about something like that anyway. The interior decoration was also very nice. I liked the open kitchen best. The only thing I may have missed a little was music. You could easily have something set up here. But that's no reason to deduct a star. Service: The service was super friendly, explained/recommended a few things and wasn't intrusive. Conclusion: I can highly recommend a visit to the Block House at Aegi and will definitely visit other Block Houses.

Nice staff, great service and everything was clean

Great restaurant. Price/performance ratio fits. The food is top and the service is excellent. Again and again.

Very friendly staff. The food was also very tasty. The ambience was right and was also nicely decorated. The other dishes (starters, dessert) were great and very tasty. I would definitely recommend the restaurant to others

My overall impression was fine. Food was okay, although you could expect a little more for the price. Basically everything else was fine. Cleanliness was top, service was excellent.

Overall I thought it was fine. It was very crowded on our day. Nevertheless, the waitress was always nearby and super friendly with a smile on her face. It is also very nicely decorated. The menu has something for almost everyone, vegan would be great... maybe not just salad for those who don't eat meat, there are now really great alternatives that you can make. I found it a bit very greasy, the fries could have been seasoned more. The homemade ketchup is really great. I tried it and think it's ok, that's my opinion and you can try it out. The dessert is amazing, I love the lava cake

Meat and bread are good. The rest... oof

Yes! If you like Staks, you have to go there!!! 👍👍

Everyone wasn't thrilled. You can do it, way too expensive for the food. Unfortunately nothing special.

You should make a reservation in the evening hours to avoid an uncertain waiting time. Otherwise recommended without reservation.

Baked potato still raw inside, fries not cooked, mushrooms with steak tasteless and watery, bread on Caesar salad not enough, too hard and cold - sad experience But wasn't interested in the service In the Wasps restaurant

Nice staff, friendly and attentive.

Good service, good food, usual prices
