BLOCK HOUSE Frankfurt Westend in Frankfurt am Main

Always delicious for over 25 years 😋

The rump meat was cooked too hard.

Tasty food and friendly service. The starters, main courses and desserts were tasty and a good value for money. I only took photos of the dessert though. While we were there, between 6pm and 8pm, there were FIVE (!) birthday celebrations with birthday music being played and a starlight candles being served. Seems like a popular place for adult birthdays then.

The steaks there are delicious, I recommend it 🤌🤌🤌 it’s very noisy and a lot of people, make a reservation ahead if you don’t want to stand in line at the door

Block House has been a household name for me for probably 40 years. I used to go there quite regularly as a guest. Now, after a long time, I wanted to indulge in my positive memories again and visited this block house in Frankfurt. In the morning I tried to reserve a table for two people. This was rejected on the grounds that there was no reservation for two people. It should also take a maximum of a few minutes. Reality: Very long line and we had to wait easily 30 minutes until we finally got a table. This is exactly what we wanted to avoid. The steak dishes are still the same as before, which I welcomed. But what I've never experienced before is that my steak arrived with very little residual heat, i.e. not much warmer than my finger. With prices now so high, as a guest I expect something much better. Conclusion for us: Even though we enjoy eating steak, we will think carefully about a future visit.

Definitely recommended if you want to eat a good steak. Very friendly and attentive service.

Great staff, we laughed a lot and were very competent and the food was very tasty

Everything is fine, good quality and nice service.

Nice decor and good food. Drinks were a bit pricey but overall an enjoyable visit.

We like going there. And the quality of the food is good, although not organic.

Very good. Atmosphere like an American diner, service very friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. Clear recommendation for a visit :)

After 20 years of loyalty on the phone, dumped as socially. 20 years of tradition of all members of my family having lunch at the Blockhaus Westend on birthdays has now come to a very unpleasant end. When I called on January 15th, 2025 for a table for 4 people for a big birthday on the 17th, like all previous years, I only heard - "no reservations during the trade fair period", then they simply hung up. I thought the line was disconnected because I couldn't believe that I was being disrespected as a customer. The man himself answered it again. I apologized and asked if he just hung up. He said- YES. I explained the situation, birthday, 20 years of customers...then- "no reservation, come over and bring waiting time with you." I said there was a 90 year old woman there and should she wait outside the door? "Then I'll give you a chair so she can wait in the chair." Well, we were always satisfied and always very, really generous with tips. I was very disappointed and will never enter the store again and recommend everyone to do the same. On the same day I went to the Blockhaus at the Stock Exchange and could easily reserve a table for 4 people. Conclusion: the staff is crucial in the service industry. The man who answered the phone is incompetent, rude, not intelligent enough to do his job. We remain loyal to the Blockhaus, only thanks to the, in contrast, very competent, understanding, friendly and flexible employees at the Blockhaus on the stock exchange.

Typical steakhouse, very courteous staff, nicely decorated! There was a section of about 5 vegetarian dishes on the menu and of course soups/salads without meat. My dish (salad, bread and baked potato) didn't taste great, but it didn't taste very bad either. I guess they're so mediocre here because they focus their expertise on steaks.

Tasty steaks and reasonable price.

It’s our best place for family dinner when we visit Germany and it always creates the most unforgettable memory for us. The food is delicious and the staff are friendly. Delicious stakes especially the fillet mignon and delicious strawberry ice cream.

No matter when you visit the Blockhouse. Service, quality and taste are always excellent. Price level 1a

Good food, generally nice atmosphere. Unfortunately we sat directly in the entrance area where it was very drafty. Unfortunately, service was more like in a fast food restaurant.

Absolutely excellent meat, medium to perfection, always a pleasure. Staff as always very nice. There was nothing to add to the recession from 6 years ago, as loyal guests we were always very satisfied, until yesterday... somehow we were lured by the description of the "burger". What happened next didn't meet our expectations at all. Ultimately it was written that the burger comes on bread, but somehow it was overlooked because the inner image of a burger predominated. So the familiar piece of log house bread as a base with a leaf of lettuce, a few diced tomatoes sautéed in the pan and the gratinated cheese was all that accompanied the 200 gram paddi. The teaspoon of coleslaw, barely more than half a thumb, caused me and my companion to burst out laughing immediately and without agreement. The ink for the clue in the map was probably worth more than this blob. No thanks, in the future we'll stick with the proven piece of meat and the familiar side dish.

We had an extremely great waiter, Hossain, great service and fond of children. Food was delicious. Ambiance is just “old”

Food very very tasty!!! The service is very friendly, but sometimes it takes a little longer. The ambience is suitable for a steakhouse. The birthday surprises are very nice but I won't say more about them, you have to experience them. Parking is generally difficult in Frankfurt, so you just have to look for it in the Westend.

Been here again for a long time. The quality of the food was really great - but the portions could have been a little bigger 😉It was a Saturday evening and it was really very full and unfortunately you couldn't make a reservation in advance - that was a shame!

Ich war gestern wieder dort im Haupthaus Wiesenau. Ich hatte meinen Ceasar- Salat mit Hähnchenbrust bestellt, es wurde mir gesagt, es gibt nur Putenbrust heute. Habe ich dann bestellt, die Putenbrust trocken und zäh! Der ganze Salat war lieblos angerichtet, lieblos wie teilweise das Personal dort !

I spontaneously went to the Blockhaus Frankfurt Westend on New Year's Eve and got a place straight away - which made me very happy. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive, which created a great atmosphere right from the start. The meat was really first class. I had the Irish Dry Aged Rump Steak, which was grilled to a perfect medium rare – a delight in every way! For dessert there was a chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream, which rounded off the evening perfectly. Overall it was an excellent visit: great food, excellent service and a wonderful atmosphere. Absolutely recommended – I would love to come back!

The Block House was completely full and we (3 adults and two children) had to wait almost an hour until there were seats for us. But after so much anticipation, the food tasted particularly good! 👍

Very tasty food and really good service, the house has a real American style

Super nice staff, always busy in the early evening - but at least for two you can usually find something... Food quality as usual at this steakhouse chain. Disadvantage: Finding a parking space, as always in the Westend, is a disaster.

Great atmosphere, great service, everything delicious 😋

Well, unfortunately the service is of no use if you can't get the steaks tender. Really a shame. The taste is fresh, but a bit bland, but the question that arises most is: Why can't the steaks in a steakhouse for this price range be tender? Maybe it was just because the place was pretty full and people didn't pay enough attention to the grill... there are much better steak restaurants out there. But still 1 star for the nice service.

Four of us were there last week. The food was very tasty and the service was courteous. Clear recommendation.

The food here is very tasty, the price is great and the service staff is extremely friendly. We like coming here. Highly recommended.

Hospitality, a friendly welcome is an absolute MUST today in order to gain favor with guests! Here it is extremely important to serve a good, tasty dish and I absolutely give it a grade 1 in the “meat” section. I would love to eat there again with friends. Best recommendation Long

Always great, nothing to add. Consistent quality, consistent top steaks and the salads are a dream!

Gehe immer wieder gerne in eines der Block House Restaurants. Nur diesesmal war es echt schlecht und enttäuschend. Das Mastercut war ein zähes Stück und ungenießbar. Echt Schade ….

Good steak but price performance is difficult. Service rather uninterested

Ok steak, decent service, server assume I would tip and did not come back with changes

Nice cozy atmosphere, very nice and attentive service and super delicious food! Great, we'd love to come back!

As always, the best Ribeye Mastercut in this price range.

Online table reserved for 4 people worked great Very friendly and competent service Food very good 👍 my guests were very satisfied. Would love to come back Thank you 🍀

The one in Stuttgart is better.

Meine Tochter hatte Geburtstag und sie haben Laute Musik aufgetreten und alle haben geklatscht ,und eine Containe war auch dabei Das Essen hat auch super super super geschmeckt 👍

"Ok's" meat, it tasted good Price acceptable

We had some concerns at first because we're not big FFM fans, but it was a fantastic evening. Food was great, service was great, atmosphere was very nice. Come again.

The food served was very tasty, could have been a little hotter. The waitress could have asked for a second drink.

It was really great, the meat was excellent and the side dishes were fresh and well prepared. It's a shame that you can't order Béarnaise sauce with the rib eye. the wine list could also be more extensive.

Very tasty food for a good price. Quality is great too! The facility is clean and well maintained, but not modern.

Until recently we were regular guests (2-3 times) per week, with a corresponding monthly turnover. The service staff and management knew us. Depending on the location of the table, we sometimes have to deal with more, sometimes less motivated staff. Fortunately, more often with nice, attentive staff - when certain tables were free. We were happy to give good tips. On our last visit, which we of course weight in the rating, the rack of lamb was tough. This was probably not due to the kitchen, the cooking level was right, but rather the quality. As we often asked at the end of the meal whether everything had been okay, we pointed out the problem. Of course, from a legal point of view there was no objection, the meat was eaten and a complaint was difficult to handle. If it is notorious that only one person could have eaten if the service and the kitchen had been reported immediately, it becomes understandable why a complaint could not be made immediately for this reason. The service staff at the table also shared this view and would have taken the complained dish off the bill. Certainly a case-by-case decision. The restaurant manager, who was responsible for the evening, decided against the arguments of our service at the table and of course also against our arguments without having discussed them personally at the table. Of course you received your money. At least we as regular guests lost.

- Overwhelmed employees - far too long waiting times - Food was served cold - no apology - Lettuce leaves as big as half the side of my face - if I have to spend 5 minutes chopping the salad myself, I'd rather stay at home Thank you, never again

Block House is a simple way to satisfy hunger. Price performance is not quite there. Our meat dishes were good in terms of meat. However, the baked potatoes are reminiscent of tasteless mashed potatoes.

The steaks are really good and the seating is good.

Steaks and salads are great. The service and atmosphere are very good. I recommend.

Steaks are always cold when they are brought out. Even fries are the same. The opposite is the case on the stock exchange: steak is always hot.

Always an experience to enjoy the relaxed, friendly atmosphere there. We have never been disappointed - neither with the food, the service or the atmosphere.

Very nice staff responded to our special requests without further ado and they were implemented without further ado

Good food, portions are just too small now. Afterwards we had to eat our fill in the “Stadtsalat” opposite us…

Delicious food. Good service. I recommend the place.

Always the same good quality for years... Nice quick service... Always my pleasure...

Ordenaron el trozo de carne más caro y aun así lograron arruinarlo asándolo demasiado caliente, quemando el exterior mientras cocinaban mal el centro. Parece que los chefs no prueban lo que envían. No recomendaría este lugar a nadie. Los lados eran de baja calidad también.

Very nice service..the steak was on point..side dish also delicious..

I ordered the tenderloin steak around 2020-2021 for €31.50. almost 3-4 years later it costs a whopping €44!!! Of course everything has become more expensive and I was able to account for the approximately €38 for the tenderloin with inflation etc. The renewed price increase However, it makes me want to turn my back on Block House and look for other restaurants in the future. I find an almost 50% surcharge within 3-4 years unacceptable. Now the prices have been reduced again, but the steaks are now smaller. Shrinkflation at Blockhouse!

Last night we had dinner at the Blockhouse and the steak (fillet and rib eye) were perfectly medium rare, it couldn't have been better! In addition, the service was top and highly recommended!

When I took the bus to the botanical garden, I saw a large steakhouse in front of the bus stop. I took a leisurely look at the botanical garden in the morning and entered the store just in time for it to open at 12:00. I received the rib roast steak. It was delicious. What if we partnered with botanical gardens to issue discount coupons? It was quite crowded even during lunch time on a weekday.

Loved every minute in here...thought I wouldn't considering the exterior wasn't anything particularly special. The atmosphere was great, was quite busy most likely because of Automechanika but that didn't slow the speed of service! 100% recommend. Thanks Block House, hope to see you again someday.

Top service, great food, gladly again!

Steak was very good. And the service was attentive and warm-hearted and made us feel very comfortable. Thanks goes to Dily

Great food, good value for money. Very good service. The only disadvantage: it is quite loud and uncomfortable when the restaurant is busy. No parking spaces available! The best way to arrive is by subway.

Excellent Steaks,resnoble prices. Excellent Service Can get a bit loud when the restaurant is full. Worth the money

Were received very friendly. Service and steaks and cheeseburgers were delicious.

Recommended this place, good food and nice atmosphere 👌

Very good food, preferably fillet steaks 300 g plus baked potatoes, sour cream and salads with Italian dressings. Nice quick service. In the summer you can sit outside very nicely. Located directly on Bockenheimer, very centrally in the Westend.

The restaurant was so very busy, and it felt like they wanted us in and out quickly. Mains were brought out without entree plates being cleared. My steak, although nicely cooked, was small - guessing less than 100g. But the vegetables were actually inedible. They were cooked to the point of being bloated and flavourless and have to be the soggiest and saddest vegetables I have ever seen. The meat, veg and gratin was all slapped together on a plate and looked very unappealing.

Just a typical steakhouse - but a really nice waiter who enjoyed his job and was super attentive. Food was great with a good price/performance ratio

Fries with wheat and sugar in the pepper - if you like it... in any case the selection for guests with lactose and gluten intolerance is very limited, which is a shame. If you also want to avoid refined sugar, you will unfortunately come away empty-handed.

The food was great. I had a cheeseburger with fries and a beer. You can't complain about the price and the service was very friendly and prompt.

The menu is varied and also suitable for vegetarians. Everyone will find something here. The service is nice and the service is quick.

Real nice restoran with great garden,great food

Really good tasting steaks! I have known the log cabin for over 20 years and the quality has always been consistently good over the years. Good price/performance ratio The staff could be friendlier and more accommodating. Many people only speak broken German.

A place like family restaurant. The steak is delicious, and the staff is friendly.

Good was amazing and service just as much

Typisches Haus der Kette. Im Großen und Ganzen OK aber auch nichts besonderes. Die Portionen sind zum Preis eher übersichtlich. Vom Geschmack und der Qualität aber in Ordnung. Das beschädigte Gläser an die Gäste verteilt werden, ist peinlich. Vor allem, wenn das Glas offensichtlich nicht erst frisch beschädigt ist. Mehrere Macken am Fuss des Glases. Mit vollem Haus ist das nicht zu erklären, denn viel los war zum Zeitpunkt unseres Besuchs nicht.

Very tasty, also a choice for vegetarians if the rest of the family needs their meat ;-). Child-friendly, all the waitresses are super friendly, people still smile here.

Great place to eat meat. Rib-eye Mastercut is off the chart. Good service and nice athmosphere. I was served by Adrian who was awesome: fast, efficient, funny and always in a good mood 👌

Steaks as they should be, crispy fish salad, the finest baked potatoes and an ingenious sour cream! Prices are just ok, you pay for good things! But the highlight was the service. Fast, super friendly and funny. We felt very comfortable at Dobrinka! 👍👍👍 Thank you for a nice evening! 🙏🙏🙏 A small drawback: the comfortable wicker chairs on the terrace have been replaced by hard, backless benches 🙄 🐺

Friendly staff. Very short waiting time. Simple decoration on the table.

Delicious steak and roasted potato with sour cream. Salad with champignons was only ok.

Coming from the north, we have known Blockhouse and its quality for a long time. We have been to Frankfurt several times. The quality decreases significantly. The last time we visited a few months ago we weren't so happy anymore. Last week (workday, evening, holidays and hardly any visitors...) Unfriendly service, salad carelessly prepared, fillet steak burnt and overcooked, even though ordered "English". Therefore no longer recommended for the prices. A pity.

The steakhouse is a bit old. Orders were taken incorrectly and by the time the changes were served the steaks were almost cold...

The service was experienced and friendly. You can sit outside in a nice location, but in the long run it's not really comfortable without backrests and padding. The meat and salad dressing were good, but the side dish (fries, probably frozen) and the dessert (gastro ice cream with spray cream) were at best of average standard.

A cheeseburger and a coke for 22,3€ -> see it for yourself on the picture. Neither the quality in taste, nor the visual presentation justifies the price. Thats possibly the worst price/value ratio in the city at the moment

Typical chain house. Overall OK but nothing special either. The portions are rather manageable for the price. But the taste and quality are okay. The fact that damaged glasses are handed out to guests is embarrassing. Especially if the glass is obviously not recently damaged. Several flaws at the base of the glass. This can't be explained by a full house, because there wasn't much going on at the time of our visit.

Very tasty food. The three classics also delight vegetarians. Price/performance is ok. There is also a cheap day menu for lunch. The salads are also very good. We've always enjoyed coming to this place because it's always been good.

**Restaurant Review: Blockhouse, Frankfurt** I recently visited Blockhouse in Frankfurt with my 8-year-old son. We chose to sit outside to enjoy the pleasant weather. Shortly after, the manager approached us in a very unwelcoming manner, instructing us to remove outside food. While this policy is understandable, the condescending and cold delivery of the message was unnecessary and lacked empathy. This interaction forced me to ask my son to finish his small sushi pieces outside, near the street, which was disheartening. Despite ordering food from their restaurant, the manager showed no concern or understanding. Even the general manager seemed indifferent to our situation. On a positive note, one of the other employees attempted to improve our experience by offering free ice cream, which was a kind gesture. Additionally, I took a steak to go, which was decent. However, the manager's dismissive attitude overshadowed these positives. I would also suggest reconsidering the ambiance; playing American country music might give a misleading impression that outside food is allowed, akin to some American restaurants. Unfortunately, the overall atmosphere was not welcoming, reflecting a cultural coldness I've observed elsewhere in Germany. In summary, while the food was satisfactory, the lack of hospitality was disappointing. Improvement in customer service is essential for a better dining experience.

Steakhouse in Frankfurt's Westend: The usual food in steakhouses, not worse, but also not better than anywhere else. Unfortunately it was no longer hot when it was served. The waitress had no idea, was not yet well trained and caused chaos in service and billing.

We hadn't reserved a table but got one outside on the terrace. The staff were friendly and the food was great. Even though the restaurant was right on the main street, you hardly noticed any traffic. We would love to come back when we are here.

No atmosphere. You don't hear anything because of the music. You cannot have a normal conversation. The service was horrible. Not attentive, rude and disinterested. The food wasn't that good either.

Burgers come on a piece of garlic baguette without a lid, the whole thing is called a New York Cheese Burger. Oh well. Service was courteous, Radeberger Pils was fresh. The ambience is a bit outdated.

I came here again after 6 years and was disappointed to find that the steaks are no longer the same as the ones I ate there 6 years ago. It's a shame, I think that was the last time 🥲

The salmon is overcooked. Drinks are good

. Steak (medium rare), medium rare . Pasta and hamburgers are usually

Wir waren abends zur Essenzeit da und hatten einen Tisch draußen, der noch nicht abgeräumt war. Nach 10Minuten Warten, machten wir auf uns aufmerksam. Der Kellner kam und sagte, es dauere noch einen kleinen Moment. Nach weiteren 10Minuten, in denen ein Pärchen in Empfang genommen wurde, ihr Tisch abgeräumt und abgewischt wurde und die Bestellung aufgenommen wurde, unser Tisch war nach wie mit Gläsern und Flaschen vollgestellt, sind wir gegangen.

We went the for a pint. Sat outside. Took ages to pay our bill.
