Catalonia Restaurant Zülpich in Zülpich

Great service. Really friendly. The food was excellent. I had a Pinsa Romana and it was delicious. The bread with the garlic sauce, was truly a delight and the ambiance with the music was very nice.

We can't understand the good reviews. The menu is completely wrong! The service is so slow and forgetful that you almost die of thirst. This was our first and last time there.

Very tasty food, especially the tapas and pasta dishes. The steak on the stone with the side dishes is highly recommended. The service is very friendly.

Today was our first time there with five people. We each had six tapas, making a total of 30, and not a single one of them impressed us. The quality of the food was abysmally poor, and some of the tapas even had ingredients other than those listed on the menu. Instead of chorizo, we were served sucuk 🤨 The prawns in garlic oil had everything in them except garlic 🧐 Three of my six tapas came with a tasteless tomato sauce. The chili con carne was cold and tasted like it came from a can of Erasco. Goat cheese with almonds and honey had no almonds, but did have hazelnuts 😔 We didn't have any cutlery to begin with, had to ask several times for salt and pepper, and for a bowl of aioli. My second cocktail still hadn't arrived after 20 minutes. None of us understand the good reviews. The tapas have nothing to do with tapas, which is a real shame. After asking several times about the chorizo, we were finally told that it was actually sucuk, an absolute no-go.

It's a great experience to be able to discover a different kind of pizza, the pinsa. It's a restaurant specializing in Mediterranean cuisine.

After the food always arrived very late on our previous visits, things were worse this time. At many tables, food or drinks arrived much too late, or, as was the case with us, didn't arrive at all – the guests waited in vain. After waiting for over two hours, we (and others) finally left the restaurant disappointed and went to a pizzeria because we were so hungry. The waitress was understanding and understood our disappointment. But we won't be back.

I really enjoyed the food and the staff were also very friendly

We had to wait almost 1.5 hours for our food. There was no apology or discount. But the food was delicious.

We were just there to celebrate my birthday with a culinary treat. The wait of almost an hour is perfectly acceptable given the busy place. The server was friendly and looked after us well. The food was outstanding, the steaks cooked to perfection. We also found the tapas very tasty. Unfortunately, the table was almost too small for everything. Definitely 5 stars, and we will definitely come back.

Tolles Restaurant an einem sehr schönen Platz. Das Essen ist prima, besonders die Tapas haben sehr gut geschmeckt. Leider ist der Service nicht so gut.

The food is delicious and the ambiance is lovely and pleasant! I'd love to come back.

Hello We were there today with a larger group. Unfortunately, the service took a long time. They were very understaffed but very friendly. There was another large group there who were so loud that we couldn't hear each other at all. The food was delicious, but waiting almost two hours for it is simply too long. It was full, of course, but I think you should let the guests know that it will take so long.

Due to a power outage, we had to wait two hours for our food. The chef and staff were super friendly and served free drinks. The food was great.

Best restaurant in Zülpich! I've been a customer since day one. I've never been disappointed with the taste or the service. We held our Christmas party there recently, and my colleagues were also impressed. The steak is highly recommended, along with the white Ribera, a must-try tonight 👌🏻

We've always enjoyed the Catalonia and have often recommended it to others. But unfortunately, a few things went wrong during our visit tonight. We generally understand full tables and sometimes longer wait times, especially when it's busy – but when quiet comments about lukewarm food and a wait of almost two hours are met with such a rude response, it's simply disappointing. The owner's response was: "You can see what's going on here – if it's taking too long for you, then go to McDonald's." You felt more like a nuisance than a welcome guest. That's not how you treat paying customers. It's a shame about the cocktails – but we won't be coming back and won't be recommending the restaurant to anyone. A look at the other tables and now at the current reviews of the evening shows that, unfortunately, we weren't alone in this experience.

Great food, super friendly staff!

We had the rump steak and the hamburger and were more than satisfied. The value for money is excellent. Everything was very well presented, the staff was creative, and it was a successful and enjoyable evening!

We love going there; the food is delicious, especially the steak ❤️ Worth every cent & great value for money. We'll be back again and again 💐☀️

On a friend's recommendation, we decided to eat there. After initial excitement, I thought I was starving... We waited over an hour for our food (the restaurant wasn't even half full). It wasn't brought until we asked for it 🤐 My friend got her food, but unfortunately, no cutlery. We asked/pressed for service several times, but no one came. In the end, she ate with her fingers. But the cocktails were good 👍

We were at the Catalonia again this evening and what can I say, we have been there 3 times now and there was nothing to complain about

It was very fun, delicious and beautiful there!

Absolutely recommendable and great every time 👌

Highly recommended! We had delicious tapas. A large starter was also included. Excellent value for money. We'll be back!

The food tastes really fresh and delicious. There's a wide selection of tapas and dishes. The service often seems distracted. When we were there, the whole conversation revolved around a puppy. Even though we obviously wanted to pay, we were barely noticed. Tip: 6 tapas and 2 cocktails are perfectly sufficient for 2 people.

Very reasonable prices, the food is good and plentiful, the service is perfect

Waited several hours for food... and twice... unfriendly staff and not helpful… One reason for the long wait: there are no more plates 😂 It was tasty but you can't do it again There

We celebrated Mother's Day here today and it was great. Service very friendly, delicious tapas and cozy atmosphere. I'd love to come back soon!

Great service, food and ambience great Any time !!! Ramona is the best service person 👍 She's doing a great job :)

Super tasty tapas and main courses at a fair price. We'd love to come back!

Great tapas restaurant. Mojito, however, was lukewarm.

Very good restaurant, tapas and varied cocktails! Very good service and a very nice little extra, a waiter answered us in French 😀 Thanks again for the Easter eggs ^^

Great location, super nice service, excellent food, great value for money

Ein absolut leckeres Essen zu humanen Preisen und bei sehr freundlicher Bedienung. Zum Dessert eine sehr leckere Creme Catalana und der Abschluss war perfekt!

Very tasty food and the cocktails are great 👌🏼

Very good food. Especially the tapas and the steak are excellent. The prices are reasonably good and the atmosphere is good. You just need to allow for a little more time, as it can take more than an hour for the food to arrive.

Very tasty food. Very nicely prepared at fair prices.

Food and service were very good.😊 The patio doors to the front of the outside seating area were open. Unfortunately, this not only brought fresh air but also cigarette smoke into the restaurant. Bad for asthmatics 😢, maybe ask for a table in the back corner.

Very tasty tapas. A great price-performance ratio. We'll definitely come back.

Looking for a good paella. Our 4th restaurant, we reserved a table for 4 people. We pre-ordered a paella with seafood and one with chicken. The day before, we discussed the process again by phone so that the kitchen had the information that we would like to eat tappas in advance. We got there early and ordered tappas. The restaurant was only occupied by a few guests at the time. Our first order of tappas took almost 30 minutes until we had it at the table and could enjoy it. Really tasty and we were really looking forward to the paella. Which was then brought by the waiter after a while. He placed the pans on the table without any stands. We were surprised because such a hot pan is not good for the wood. But we quickly realized that the paella wasn't even lukewarm... We called the waiter to complain about the paella. He was amazed and took her back to the kitchen. The restaurant was now well filled. After a while he came back with the pans and a wooden board underneath to bring us the now warm paella. Yes, she was warm, but that didn't last long. The pans had probably been briefly put in the oven with the fresh lemon pieces on them..... Unfortunately they weren't heated properly. In terms of taste, the tappas were worlds better than the paella. The seafood one was mostly mussels. Spices and vegetables were missing. It's kind of a shame. Not a single syllable was apologized or anything was done about it. It can happen, despite the fact that we have done everything we can to support it. When asked before the payment process whether we were satisfied, we said we weren't except for the Tappas. No response other than okay. It was also noticeable that one of the waiters was constantly stroking his hair so that the hairstyle was in place and a dog was also given a quick pat from him before he continued serving. Conclusion: Paella was a real failure. Extra plate for chicken bones and leftover lemon would have been great. Or larger plates. Tappas delicious. Operation and service can be improved. We had to travel 30 minutes for a paella, which unfortunately wasn't at all tasty or typical. The worst in our challenge so far.

A very pleasant place to linger. The food and drinks were delicious. Overall, highly recommended :-)

Working here. Available for takeout or delivery. Great fries, but I couldn't manage a large portion.

It was another great evening! Mega delicious burger and very, very tasty tapas. Dedicated young team in a cozy atmosphere. We would love to come back :-)

Great restaurant, very nice staff. Delicious food, at fair prices.

I was there with friends for the second time today. Great and cozy shop, very tasty food at a more than fair price and very friendly employees. I'd love to come back.

Spontaneous dinner with my wife. Had a super tasty rump steak. Ordered and received medium! My wife's salad was also great. Very friendly staff and our Ty (Appenzeller) was also allowed under the table.

I ate there with friends for the first time last week, the pizza was excellent, the tapas too! Best pizza in Zülpich! Today I picked up a cheeseburger and fries for my son! He was very excited! He just wants to eat a burger there! The fries taste really like potatoes and not like in every fast food restaurant! We will come more often! Highly recommended!

The music was too loud. Thumbs up for the football broadcast. I can only recommend it!!!

I can definitely recommend this location.

Good place for a quick tapas bite. Food well cooked and presented. Pricing is fair!

Tapas and cocktails delicious, service friendly, toilet clean, gladly again

Great place. Tapas were as good as they get in Germany, almost Spain level. Service was super nice and food was ready very fast. The music and atmosphere were also very nice. Recommended!

Everything was good and tasty, we'll come back with two other guests.

Super delicious food, great service!

Last night again delicious food and good service. The music is a bit too loud, so the ambience only gives it four stars. We'd love to come back.

Very nice little restaurant with a nice atmosphere. The food is great and the price is really reasonable. You can only recommend it

We ate there twice. The food is very tasty. The “Greetings from the kitchen” is a great attention and great as a small appetizer. The steak was on point and highly recommended. Pinsa, salad, no matter what, it all tastes great. The staff very friendly and accommodating. We felt really comfortable. Cocktails also highly recommended and a large selection. Great value for money. I would have liked to give it 5 stars, but deducted 1 star for the very long waiting times. Waiting for 1 hour once was ok despite a reservation, but 1.5 hours today was borderline. Nevertheless, we would love to come back.

Wir waren 2 x dort essen. Das Essen ist sehr lecker. Der "Gruß aus der Küche" eine Aufmerksamkeit und als kleine Vorspeise Klasse. Das Steak auf den Punkt und sehr zu empfehlen. Pinsa, Salat, egal was, es schmeckt alles hervorragend. Das Personal sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Haben uns richtig wohl gefühlt. Cocktails auch sehr zu empfehlen und eine große Auswahl. Klasse Preis-Leistungs Verhältnis. Ich hätte gerne 5 Sterne vergeben, aber 1 Stern Abzug für die sehr lange Wartezeiten. Trotz Reservierung einmal 1 Stunde gewartet war ja noch ok, aber heute 1,5 Stunden war schon grenzwertig. Nichtsdestotrotz kommen wir sehr gerne wieder.

The meat and the sauce are not fresh. The staff tried to force us to give a positive review for a cocktail of our choice, which is also reflected in the reviews. Well, I don't recommend this restaurant

This time I can't complain. But we were there at 3:30 p.m. Then everything fit perfectly. In the evenings, when it gets crowded, it's quite annoying because you have to wait a long time for food and drinks

We came here on a recommendation and are really impressed. Very, very tasty tapas, friendly, fast service, cool, pleasant atmosphere

Very cozy and service confident 💯👍🏼

Super delicious tapas, fantastic steaks, delicious cocktails... there's no better way to celebrate your wedding anniversary with your husband. There is also a great ambience and the service is excellent. We'll be back soon. Thank you for this great evening 🥰 Clear recommendation from us 👍🏻

Very good food at fair prices. Absolute recommendation.

We spent a wonderful evening at Catalonia in Zülpich! The ambience is extremely inviting and we felt welcome from the start. The food was excellent - from the starters to the main courses, all the dishes were fresh, lovingly prepared and incredibly tasty. We were particularly impressed by the authentic Mediterranean cuisine, which impressed us with great flavors and high-quality ingredients. The staff were also extremely friendly and attentive and made our evening even sweeter with their excellent service. A big compliment to the entire team – we will definitely be back!

Very tasty food and friendly service

Great food, friendly staff, nice location

Essen und Service Top👌🏽 Die Steaks waren perfekt zubereitet und die tapas auch immer sehr lecker und super angerichtet. Gruß Alex&Nadine

Great evening at Catalonia with wonderful food, fantastic cocktail and super nice staff. Thank you.

Service is top and the food and cocktails I can only recommend are 12/10 delicious

I have never eaten so deliciously in a restaurant. I'm just excited about everything. Every little dish was simply delicious. 12 out of 10 stars. :) The service is just super friendly!!! I can only recommend it to everyone. However, you really have to reserve a table in advance as it gets really crowded. Every table was already reserved.

I was here for the first time today with my two colleagues. Respect. We were thrilled and completely satisfied with the friendly service and the delicious food. Highly recommended.👍 We felt very comfortable and will come back and recommend Catalonia to our family and friends.

Great family atmosphere, fast and good secice! The restaurant is a bit hidden, but if you know it, it's worth a visit.

Great place to eat delicious tapas, the service is great and the boss is super nice! 5/5, highly recommended!!!❤️

Very tasty food, super friendly staff. Everything went really well.

We enjoyed a nice lunch there with 4 adults and 2 children. Nice service, the atmosphere is right, and the food was excellent. The steak was on point and the pinsa (never had it before) was delicious. The price is right for the service offered and we would be happy to come back when we are in the area.

We have been to Catalonia Essen several times as a team and the steaks with baked potatoes are great! Great price-performance ratio! 👍

Repeated great experience at Catalonia restaurant We have been to the Catalonia restaurant several times with a larger group and are always thrilled with the food. The food is always excellent, tasty, fresh and of high quality. The price-performance ratio is also absolutely right. The staff is always friendly and attentive, which creates a very pleasant atmosphere. A big thank you to the entire team for the excellent service and the lovely evenings.

Typically Spanish! Tasty, loud, friendly! Again and again!

Super place, food is amazing. The environment is great. I think it's a great loss to come here and not eat here. Very nice place. The food is very nice and delicious. 5 stars

I can recommend the service and food to everyone! Price performance TOP!!! Keep it up!

Very cozy and very friendly atmosphere. Super nice service and friendly. Four of us had dinner with friends. Tapas are really good and tasty. We all enjoyed the main courses. Will come here more often. We arrived especially from Cologne. Thank you for the lovely evening and dinner 🙏

Food is Great. I ate pizza and it was very good. Don't decide to eat without stopping by here.

The food is great, the service is very nice and friendly, you can relax and enjoy the food

Four of us ate there during the week. The food and service were impeccable, very tasty and beautifully presented. Personally, I found the huge TVs and music a bit distracting and too much in the foreground. We will be happy to come back for a cozy evening.

Went there spontaneously and because of the good reviews. We were really positively surprised by the menu including cocktails and were really full. Tapas were tasty and plentiful! Music was perhaps a bit too loud and the light was too bright. So there was a bit of a lack of coziness. Otherwise, the waiters were very attentive and friendly! Prices were completely ok! We would be happy to repeat our visit!

The tapas are always very tasty and plentiful. The 6s are enough for two of us, with a salad on the side.

Absolutely impressive how friendly the staff is. We had tapas with some extras. Cocktails - across the board, delicious - hot and fresh. Thank you

Great and delicious food, lots of choice and something for everyone. Staff very friendly. Any time :-)

High quality and very well made cocktails.

Bad service and no edible food.

Very tasty food and cocktails. Staff friendly and accommodating. Outside with heating. We'd love to come back. 👍

Great food, very friendly service, especially the starters were great. I would always like to come back

We had reserved a table for a large party for a baptism. Now it turns out that the restaurant is on holiday. We were not informed about this and it is not on any platform, nor can you get this information on the AB. Luckily a friend noticed that the restaurant was closed, otherwise we would have been stuck in front of the closed door!!!!

The tapas are very good. It's better not to order the cocktails from the economy menu because then there is very little alcohol in them. The employees are very nice. It's a shame that it's never cleared away and that you have to order each individual Kölsch separately by pressing the radio button.

The food was good, the paella was a little underseasoned. The steak was very good Unfortunately the service was subpar. The previously advertised ringing of bells at the table could be avoided if the service staff were distributed better so that there are no waiting times of almost 1 hour for drinks. It's a shame actually. The location is good, but the seating outside is sometimes very cramped.

I haven't eaten so well in such a pleasant atmosphere for a long time. The prices are fair and the cocktails are super delicious!

Was hands down the highlight of my trip through Europe it was tucked away in a beautiful location with staff that couldn’t do enough for you. As an Irish tourist I only tip when the service and quality of food is good and my only regret was that I didn’t tip more

We wanted to watch the European Championship game yesterday, and although there were still two tables available, we were told that we could go again if we hadn't made a reservation. A few beer tables would have solved the problem. Watching football and having a drink is not possible. It's a shame that we got this far in Zülpich. We will therefore no longer visit this restaurant after the European Championships.

It used to be good, now a beer takes 30 minutes

We discovered this charming place during our stay in Zülpich. Super nice service, cocktails were very tasty, great value for money. Pizza and Pinsa were jammi! It was easy to sit outside as there was a nice outdoor area. The highlight for cold days was the heater under the table! Thank you for everything! Shorty, Enni and Britta
