CurryElse - The adventure gastronomy on Wiesenstrasse in Damme

Edit based on the owner's response: The response to my review unfortunately confirms exactly the impression I already described. Instead of taking responsibility, they are trying to blame the situation on the guest – even though a suitable seat was promised over the phone. On the day of our visit, the manager on site informed us that it might have been possible to swap something if we had arrived just 10 minutes earlier. This argument refutes the claim that a later reservation was the cause of the problem. If the restaurant is fully booked, this should be communicated openly to avoid such misunderstandings. Furthermore, a simple "We're sorry" in response to my criticism would have been much more professional, rather than blaming the guest in their response. Original response: We had made a reservation in advance by phone and specifically requested a seat with a stroller near the play area – this was kindly confirmed. However, no one on site knew anything about this. Instead, we were offered a table in the passageway, which was neither practical nor pleasant, or alternatively, a seat upstairs away from the restaurant. This seemed poorly thought out and gave the impression that families with children weren't really catered for. The staff's response was unprofessional and lacking in solution-oriented behavior – one looked in vain for any sympathy or genuine effort. It's a shame, because the first impression could have easily been salvaged with a bit of organization and friendliness. Unfortunately, the only thing that remained was disappointment.

Very good restaurant. I had the Thai chicken curry. It was delicious and just the right amount of spice. Great service, very friendly, attentive, and helpful, and even up for a joke!

I can't provide any information about the food, service, etc. We met the owner at the spring market and set up our flea market stall in front of the bushes. There was a no entry sign next to us (since the streets were closed, this sign was a bit useless) and we hung clothes on the iron bars. The boss lady came, threw our things on the asphalt and said the sign must remain clear! Maybe she was right, but what kind of...I'm still shocked at how some people behave and respect is expected from the youth?! We vacated the place at 1 p.m. because the cake sign was already shoved down our necks. Maybe the city shouldn't close it off for families and children, my son found it all very disturbing.

Opening hours do not match those listed here. The restaurant is not open on Thursdays.

Very nice restaurant where everything fits
