Daniel's Restaurant in Magdeburg

The food was excellent. Unfortunately, it was very loud in the restaurant due to its size. Therefore a star deduction for the ambience. We only ordered one dessert and got two. The employee responsible for us was also rarely seen. Therefore two stars deducted for the service.

Food top. Surprisingly good wine selection. There is even a vegetarian menu on offer. We'd love to come back.

You can do it. Service very friendly. Ambience is nice, well-equipped guest room and well located for a walk after dinner. There are enough parking spaces available. The taste is still ok, but the craftsmanship of the hospitality industry is rather mediocre. The dishes are really beautifully presented, but are literally handed over. Burger meat was completely cooked through without prior request. That's fine for many, I like it a little juicier. Bruschetta originale with grated cheese?. Overall, I am of the opinion that the restaurant's high price demands could be accompanied by a touch more professional customer orientation.

My review has been deleted. The food is expensive, the portions are small and not particularly tasty. We waited almost two hours for our food. The chicken breast looked like it had been cooked in water, and was completely unseasoned and tough. Although the atmosphere is very elaborate, the waiter wasn't particularly friendly. Nobody at our table was fed.

Disastrous service, take their customers out. they gave us a menu with a different price than what they ended up charging us for both the drinks and the food. The waiter at the checkout acted clueless, as he generally seemed completely clueless: We waited forever for the opportunity to order, then I got a burger for €18.90 that was missing the pattie. When I got a new burger, it wasn't a Jack Fruitburger that I ordered according to the menu. The other colleague told me that due to cost reasons blah blah blah they are currently no longer offering a Jack Fruitburger (it is still on the menu) and that the patty is a different vegetarian one. I had to wait another 15 minutes until they brought the rescuer on the third attempt. In both cases I was not given cutlery. The waiters were hopelessly overwhelmed and in a restaurant that was unparalleled in terms of price, they constantly demanded that the guests pass plates across the table and reached over the eating guests and asked the guests to help with the service. It's an absolute disgrace to charge such prices for such an underground service.

It was our first time in this restaurant and we received a very friendly welcome. We didn't have to wait long for the food and it was really tasty 😋. The restaurant is located directly on the Elbe, in a very nice location and the atmosphere is where you can feel comfortable. We can recommend this location with a clear conscience.

Super nice boss, delicious dishes and nice atmosphere. The location directly on the Elbe is also very nice. There are enough free parking spaces.

Hygiene and staff very good and friendly. Great ambience of the restaurant because it is located directly on the banks of the Elbe.

The food was great, the waitress was hectic and curt even though the shop was not very busy, the lunch menu items were only put on the table when asked, the question "what would you like to drink" was asked before you took off your jacket and sat down, then the hammer was at the counter : due to incorrectly set CO² pressure, the draft beer only produced foam, the draft beer was poured back and forth into several glasses for about 10 minutes, 1/2 glass was put in the fridge as a reserve for later refilling!!!, the beer I served was then stale for €5.50, who is actually supposed to drink this mess? We planned a party there and went there as a test 🤔🥺

Delicious food, courteous service, nice atmosphere! Come again!!!

Very nice atmosphere and very tasty food

Everything fine. Food very tasty. Interior matching the former industrial port. Service friendly and quick.

A nice restaurant with a good menu and tasty wines. View of the Elbe

Delicious food, very friendly staff. Maybe a little expensive. But highly recommended.

Perfect location directly on the Elbe with a view of the water 😍 on the beautiful outdoor area. The location invites you to linger. And it's also beautifully decorated inside. The food is super delicious and the service is absolutely top. Kind regards to our “rock star” waiter Georgios from your 4 groupies/friends 🤭💙🤍

Everything is just right here. A great service thanks to the best waiters in the world🥰. The food was excellent. Very tasty and the sea bass was simply fabulous in terms of cooking.

Good menu, always seasonal menus. Nice operation and good service. Also very good for sitting outside by the Elbe.

Despite not making a reservation, we got a spot right on the Elbe. We were warmly welcomed and guided through the evening with delicious culinary delights. You felt very comfortable.

Great food, especially bruschetta and the burgers are recommended. The staff was very busy, but still took a lot of time for each guest. Top food in a top location. 5/5!

Apparently you're not welcome at Daniel's if you "just" order ice cream and drinks. Our waitress reacted with an unpleasantly surprised look that we only ordered from the ice cream and drinks menu and didn't need the menu. The game then continued throughout our entire visit. Unpleasant looks almost every time we pass our table. The ice cream and drinks were only served after almost 30 minutes. We were only able to pay after asking twice, and the second time I asked, I had to go inside and point out that it had been 20 minutes since the first request to pay. The payment itself then involved adding up the entire orders (four people), without asking whether separate payment was desired. Yes, we wanted to pay separately, but we didn't insist on doing so because the service staff was so dismissive during the payment process that we just wanted to leave. A truly unpleasant gastronomic experience.

Very nice restaurant on the bike path! The staff was friendly and nice. Highly recommended

Super delicious food and wonderful service. An all-round successful evening.

Were at Daniels for the first time and would definitely go again. The ambience outside is harmonious and the location directly on the Elbe is fantastic. The food was good overall, although the portion size could have been a little larger. It tasted good and was nicely presented on the plates. Unfortunately, the service was very chaotic and therefore a bit messy. This meant that cutlery was missing from the table and a portion was incorrectly brought with tomatoes, which had previously been canceled due to an intolerance. We assume it was so chaotic because of the wedding in the main hall and hope things go better on our next visit. Apart from the little chaos, happy again.

Great restaurant with nice service. There is great food beautifully prepared. Very friendly staff and thanks to the kitchen.

A great ambience outside and inside, the service was very attentive and courteous 😍, the food was very tasty, it definitely won't be the last time there, compliments to the team 😍

Hier kommen wir nicht wieder her. Wir mussten 30min auf die Getränke warten und das auf Nachfrage. Und der winzige Teller war die mehr als 2 Stunden lange Wartezeit nicht wert.

Extra class. What can you say? Everything just fits there. Food, service, ambience.

Service aufmerksam und freundlich - dass aber ein benutzter Aschenbecher beim Servieren des Essens auf dem Tisch stehen bleibt … nunja, kann passieren bei „Fachkräften“ Küche: Risotto scheinbar mit Maggi gewürzt, Reis nicht komplett weich gekocht! Hausgebackenes Brot? In welchem Haus gebacken? Man könnte es auch als in Scheiben geschnittenes Körnerbrötchen beschreiben.

Very good food, sensational service, nice restaurant. Everything you need to spend a nice evening. We will definitely come back again and again!

Spent a nice dinner with friends

Food was too salty. Schnitzel with chanterelles and spaetzle. Glass was dirty. Table wasn't wiped, stuck. Waiter always squeezed through our table to get to other tables instead of going around the outside, which was very annoying. Since it was very loud and my child wanted to leave, I went out beforehand and couldn't say that I didn't like the food. Service was ok. Prices are overpriced and no one will see me there anymore

We ate well here and the view of the Elbe is indescribable

Unreserved recommendation! Everything just fits here! Ambiance, cuisine, service, quality, everything is great! Thank you!

Today we were with you spontaneously and for the first time. We were greeted and served very friendly by Max. A huge compliment also goes to the kitchen Andrea (she made my antipasti delicious), Daniel and Luka). We will definitely be back and are looking forward to the other dishes.

More appearance than reality... We went to dinner at Daniels on a very beautiful sunny day, we didn't have a reservation, it was during the week. We were welcomed with the words: “Have you made a reservation, my beautiful one?” I found it quite worrying. The terrace on the side of the Elbe was not even 50% occupied, but we still got a place in the blazing sun, not under an umbrella, everything was probably reserved. Food came relatively quickly, my burger was very good, but my wife's brisket was a disaster, more fat than meat. The waiter responded to my wife's objection with the flippant statement, "Have you ever eaten brisket?" Probably more times than he's served it. Unfortunately, what was served here was a soft-boiled beef brisket and not the part of the brisket that is used for brisket. When we finally left after eating and of course paying, the terrace was still only 50% occupied, that's not how you treat customers. Well, we won't be coming back anyway...

Beautiful gastronomy with a great ambience. This restaurant is beautifully situated in nature in Magdeburg, on the beautiful banks of the Elbe. We had reserved and sat on the terrace with a view of the Elbe. The restaurant has a special charm. It is clean and well maintained. The service was friendly. The menu had great dishes to choose from. Kudos to the chef 👍. We enjoyed it very much. I would be happy to come back and enjoy my time.

We were very satisfied and would like to come back.

5 course Valentine’s Day menu with live music… We were specifically asked to be there at 6:00 p.m. When we finally received our first drink at 6:45 p.m. we already suspected something bad. It was getting later, people were already looking at each other, where is the food? At around 7:45 p.m. I asked the visibly overwhelmed waiter what the schedule was for the evening, we can't sit here until midnight, so he should please bring the boss. This was immediately ignored. When the first course actually arrived at around 8:00 p.m. and was cleared away at 8:30 p.m., we calculated how long this would probably take and stopped and let the bill come. In spite of us, they charged us 18€ per person. Charged for bruschetta and two scallops. Gifted... The saddest thing, even then, the boss didn't even bother to talk to us... hey, I'm sorry that it didn't work out for you... on the contrary, while he was sitting at his table, he looked after us angrily and took our reservation at Open Table marked not started. So you can also be offended if you don't accept it, the first one after a good two hours! To have been served in the course. Once again someone who didn't understand GASTronomy. It's not just about potentially good food. Update... and it gets even better... now I'm also being sued by his lawyer to have the Google review deleted. He just didn't understand... What a shame

Very nice and friendly service. The food is always delicious and the prices are good too. I always enjoy coming here.

Thinking it might be full, I called and asked for a reservation. Luckily I was confirmed that there would still be a table for 3 people. The time and name appear to have been noted. When I arrived at the agreed time after about 45 minutes, they were completely surprised. The service staff couldn't find my reservation and doubted whether it ever existed. After loud requests from the staff, none of the colleagues wanted to come out about having accepted this reservation. To establish my credibility, I showed the call history in my phone, which proved that I had called at the stated time. It was then doubted that the phone call had ever taken place. Everyone can evaluate for themselves how they feel. Ultimately, I was sent out of court as a potential liar, of course without being offered an alternative. Fortunately, there are enough alternatives in Magdeburg with a similar price-performance ratio where I don't have to be defamed and I spontaneously got a place. The feeling remains that there may be internal problems with the service staff, which are at the expense of potential customers. A pity. 2 stars because I would have liked to eat here. You'll never see me again. I will also warn that there doesn't seem to be any value in making a reservation here. Answer to the answer: It's a shame you didn't take the time to respond to the issue professionally. Regarding 1: Since it was a telephone call, I obviously couldn't see how the supposed reservation was recorded. I hadn't received a text message. This wasn't mentioned either. I just relied on the employee's promise. Regarding 2: That is simply wrong. The statement was essentially: “There’s no way that’s going to happen today.” Regarding 3: The name of the person who answered the call is unknown. As already explained on site, the employee only contacted you with the name of your restaurant. Since all of your points are inaccurate and illogical, I am assuming that you have responded to a matter that you are not familiar with.

We sat outside. There you sit directly on the Elbe and have a beautiful view of the water. We wanted to order the ice cream sundaes with fresh strawberries. Unfortunately we had already run out of fruit, so we could only order ice cream with cream. The milk coffee was nothing special but ok.

A lovely evening for two: we chose Daniel's. We made reservations in advance and sat directly on the banks of the Elbe. The waiter at our table (Max) did a very good job and really made us want to come back. We were given excellent advice on our selection and the waiter made sure that we were able to enjoy our dessert with great satisfaction. He was also personable and authentic, very pleasant. We will be back!

We have never been disappointed with the food

There were 8 of us in the restaurant and we sat outside, having made a reservation in advance. The food was very tasty, especially the truffled pasta. The other dishes that were ordered also received positive feedback. There was only one thing: the chicken breast wasn't completely cooked through, but of course we got a new one straight away. We were even given blankets to combat the wind and the increasingly cold evening air. And whoever hired Max as a waitress did a very good job! Great guy and super nice to us. We'd love to come back again.

I love the terrace right on the Elbe. Food is a 10/10. Mäxchen provided great service, thank you. 🫶🏻

Went to lunch with a travel company and only heard words of praise and my opinion is still two thumbs up 👍 👍 for the staff ❤️👍 I have to recommend the place. Thank you, we'll be happy to come back ❤️

Wir waren im Juni als Hochzeitsgesellschaft im Daniels. Wir hatten lange im Voraus Tische neben dem Spielzimmer reserviert. Eine Woche vor dem Termin waren wir noch einmal dort, um uns sagen zu lassen, dass wir den Tisch an dieser Stelle nicht bekommen, wenn ein Bus Touristen kommt. Wir haben uns in dem Moment wie Kunden dritter Klasse gefühlt. Zur letzten Absprache waren wir am Vortag noch einmal dort. Die Chefin hat uns ignoriert und ist in den Feierabend gegangen. Der Kellner wusste überhaupt nicht Bescheid und wir mussten alles noch einmal erklären. Trotzdem war die mitgebrachte Deko nicht wie besprochen hingelegt. Der Service an dem Tag war so lala. Ich habe auf meinen Wein als Braut 20 Minuten gewartet. Meine Gäste hätten mehr getrunken, wenn die Bedienung aufmerksamer gewesen wäre. Das Küchenpersonal verdient 5 Sterne. Das Essen hat uns allen super geschmeckt.

Everything was just great. The food was great and the service was top. A must for connoisseurs.

Were welcomed nicely and friendly. Even though we hadn't booked a table, we were assigned one and had a delicious meal. Service very friendly and nice.

Went to the musical dinner last night. A successful evening. Good food, nice atmosphere, friendly service, good entertainment. Unfortunately, it was not known beforehand that the event would take place outdoors. A hint would have been great, then we would have preferred different clothing. It was pretty fresh. But there were blankets ready for that. Well thought out. So we were completely satisfied. Gladly again.

The two of us were there on Wednesday afternoon - very nice welcome. The location is fantastic on the Elbe, you can sit on a huge terrace and enjoy the peace and quiet. Were there in June last year and loved it. We had mixed starters and dips with homemade bread - everything was very tasty. For the main course, liver and beef, both extremely tasty! The young man (Maxe) who served as host did a really good job, fit perfectly with the nice atmosphere of the restaurant and the delicious food - in really generous portions. If the restaurant would put up two more signs, it would also be easier for tourists to find. Maximum points from us - thank you very much and keep it up...

Very bad service and very unfriendly operation

Nice attentive waiters. Max served us. We were very satisfied. The asparagus dish was good.

We just had coffee and cake outside. So I can't say anything about the interior. But outside under the parasol with good weather and good prices and very friendly staff you can easily endure it. Very hidden location and beautifully situated on the Elbe. Great 👍

A nice restaurant, in a great ambience, right on the Elbe. We were there for dinner on June 1st, 2024. It was a very nice girls' evening because the food and service were simply top. Our waitress, Max, was very attentive and friendly, so we felt very comfortable from the first minute. Thank you :)......any time again.....

Ein super Restaurant, in einem tollen Ambiente, direkt an der Elbe. Wir waren am 1. Juni 2024, zum Abendessen,dort. Das Essen und der Service waren top. Das Servicepersonal ( der Max), war sehr aufmerksam und freundlich, so dass wir uns von der ersten Minute an, sehr wohl gefühlt habe....jeder Zeit wieder....

The food was very tasty. The service was also great, especially our nice and friendly waiter Max. We'll be back👍

We ordered 50 sandwiches to take away from Daniels. They were great, really great. A thank you to the kitchen. Ordering and picking up is also super easy. We will definitely do this again. Thanks Gunnar and grit Team Events by Gunnar Laabs

Five of us had dinner. Everyone was very happy with their dishes. The prices are due to the good location on the Elbe. The service was just very friendly. We would still come back.

Great location with super nice staff and really good food. Great price-performance ratio. Gladly again

We sat comfortably with friends at Daniel's last night. When the weather was nice, we got a table on the raised terrace with a view of the Elbe. Friendly service and delicious food! The very friendly boss also came to our table personally... to say a warm "welcome". We say thank you for a great evening with you...see you next time!!!

Everything was great, great food and service and friendliness

Nice location on the Elbe, good food. There was a small problem with the order, which was resolved after a conversation.

Arrived shortly before the end, but were warmly welcomed and served. Very nice shop with a wonderful atmosphere. Unfortunately it was very empty - Thursday evening. The delicate coffee aroma that comes from the beer garden is unique and wonderful. Roastery dances around your nose.

We discovered this restaurant by chance because we were nearby. The four of us also got a table, although it is certainly better to reserve at peak times. The service was extremely friendly. The food was plentiful and very, very tasty. The location is great, right on the river and you don't notice anything of the city. We saved it and would love to come back.

It's really nice to sit by the river and the food is delicious. The selection of dishes was very good. The staff is friendly, but doesn't seem very professional.

It just doesn't taste good - I had a hamburger with a dried-out bunny that also tasted raw - not recommended. Hardly anyone ate it - not a good sign

Unfortunately I was a bit disappointed today. My children invited me to dinner today for Mother's Day. The waitress, although quite nice, was confused. After asking several times, the children received the juices they ordered after 45 minutes, and it also took 45 minutes for 3 glasses of wine at these prices. After more than an hour the food came. When it comes to fresh preparation, I almost understand this. I had better memories of your restaurant. A pity.

After 1.5 hours we were told we were now putting pressure on the kitchen, food would arrive in 10 minutes. After 20 minutes, we misplaced your order. Underground service. And the restaurant wasn't really full now.

It's a shame that the service was so poor😏 we've never waited so long for drinks or food! No, it wasn't pointed out!!!!

Beautifully located restaurant on the Elbe with a great menu and reasonable prices. The staff is very friendly and you don't have to wait long to order. The food and drinks came quite quickly. From the restaurant you have a direct view over the Elbe to the Millennium Tower. But you can also take a wonderful walk and look at, for example, the chain steamer or old locomotives and wagons. Everything is recommended.

Nice service, delicious food, great spot. 👍

Delicious food, plenty of food, thank you again

We had reserved (you should do it!) and got a table by the window facing the Elbe. When the weather is nice you can also sit on the terrace! The service was very nice and the food was excellent!!! Price/performance ratio fits! Definitely happy to come back!

We liked it, the food was good and the view in good weather is also very nice.

Very nice atmosphere, excellent food and super friendly service!!!, great location, I can only recommend it!!!

Good location on the Elbe, food very good, nice and friendly staff. We recommend

Can only be recommended. Be sure to sit outside when the weather is nice. Great view.

Were there yesterday and wanted to have a drink on the outside terrace after our arrival and then something to eat later. When the waiter came he asked us if we wanted to eat something. We said we just wanted to have a drink first. The waiter then slapped ONE card on the table and took the other two back with him, letting us feel his displeasure. Of course we got up and left. You can also eat and drink elsewhere in Magdeburg. I've been there several times. But after how the waiter behaved towards us yesterday, the last time I was there was yesterday. Apparently there is no need for it there anymore...

We felt very comfortable. Delicious food, friendly service and enjoyed the peace and quiet in a beautiful atmosphere. We'd love to come back.

Very nicely located. If the weather is nice, be sure to sit outside. Any time

Nice restaurant with a great terrace on the Elbe. We had two delicious pasta dishes (lamb, the other vegetarian pasta) with refined sauces. Bravo to the chef! Nice Mediterranean atmosphere in the restaurant and attentive, friendly waiters. We recommend.

Pros: large portions. Quite a tasty side dish for all dishes. Not a bad Aperol, which was brought right away. The waiter always asks if everything is delicious. Pleasant atmosphere inside the establishment. Clean, neat. Of the minuses: the menu was brought after 10 minutes of waiting. steak with veins.

We were able to get a table for dinner at Daniel's at short notice. Unfortunately, the service didn't really work; the nice waiter was responsible for half of the well-filled restaurant. He did his best to keep the waiting time for ordered drinks/food short. The food tasted great and was attractively presented on the plate. Because there were so many guests, it was noisy in the restaurant because there was a lot of noise there. We couldn't have big conversations at the table. That's why only the three stars.

Essen war gut,leider hat der Service überhaupt nicht funktioniert.Mehrere Gerichte am frühen Samstagabend bereits ausverkauft.Unfreundlicher Kellner mit erheblichen Verständigungsproblemen, völlig chaotische Abläufe.Toilletten ungepflegt... Am meisten hat uns gestört ,dass mehrmals Personen mit Strassenschuhen und Jacken in die Küche und hinter den Tresen gegangen sind, um sich mit Getränken zu versorgen. Nochmals werden wir hier nicht essen

Nice restaurant right on the Elbe, very tasty food, higher prices, very nice service.

Very tasty food! Were there for the first time and it was very tasty. A bit pricey, but good service and the good quality of the food are worth it.

Directly on the Elbe in a quiet location. Always happy.

Yesterday we had dinner with the family at Daniels on the occasion of our father's birthday. The restaurant was very busy. Nevertheless, we were served quickly. The food was simply first class. We ordered across the menu and each of us had a lovingly prepared delicacy on our plate. The portions were all filling and simply a feast for the palate. A compliment to the kitchen that understands its craftsmanship. The service staff were courteous, very attentive and friendly. The small complaint about a dish was promptly resolved with a new meal. Very confident and customer friendly. We felt very comfortable. We can recommend Daniels 100 percent.

Nice restaurant with a view of the Elbe. In summer you can sit outside right by the water.

Just stopped by today for a café and apple strudel. Everything was great and nice service.

Great food.....quick service.....

Meine Mutti hat eine negative Bewertung geschrieben und hat jetzt eine ganz merkwürdige e-mail von Google bekommen. Das ist schon sehr merkwürdig.

Great atmosphere. Fair price-performance ratio. Very tasty wine selection. Friendly service.

Wir waren am 25.12.2023 zum Weihnachts- bzw. Geburtstagsessen im Daniels mit der Familie (6 Erwachsene, 4 Kinder). Zuerst einmal zu den positiven Aspekten, das Essen war lecker und das separate Spielzimmer für die Kinder ist ein echtes Highlight. Leider gab es auch negative Punkte bei unserem Besuch. Naturgemäß ist es an Weihnachten in Gaststätten recht voll und das Personal war leider etwas unkoordiniert. Wir wurden beispielsweise nach 25 Minuten gefragt, ob wir unser Essen schon gewählt hatten, bis dato war aber noch keiner am Tisch gewesen und wir hatten noch nichtmal Getränke bestellt. Es kamen zwischendurch auch mal falsche Getränke an den Tisch, weil diese vertauscht wurden. Das wirklich Ärgerliche war jedoch, dass bei der Rechnung völlig andere Gerichte und Getränke abgerechnet wurden als bestellt. Wir gehen davon aus, dass hier die Tische verwechselt wurden. Wenn man zu zweit essen geht, dann mag das überschaubar sein, aber bei 10 Personen ist es schon schwieriger, das mit einem Blick zu erkennen. Wir bezahlten die Rechnung und erkannten dies erst im Nachgang. Durch diese Verwechslung war unsere Rechnung ca 70 Euro zu hoch. Da nun Weihnachten war und wir dementsprechend nicht sofort wegen der fehlerhaften Rechnung zurückfahren wollten und konnten, schrieben wir noch am selben Tag eine Email. Wir haben nicht erwartet, dass dies sofort geklärt wird, aber wollten zeitnah auf diese Verwechslung hinweisen. Es kam auch prompt die Rückantwort, dass nach der Weihnachtspause im Januar eine Klärung erfolgen würde. Es kam tatsächlich via WhatsApp und auch telefonisch ein Kontakt zustande, wo wir den Sachverhalt darlegen konnten und die falsche Rechnung zuschicken. Man versprach sich zu melden und eine Kompensation in Form eines Gutscheins in die Wege zu leiten. Passiert ist bis jetzt leider nichts dergleichen und ich denke mit einem Monat Wartzeit ist die Geduld auch langsam am Ende. Wir haben so eine Verwechslung der Rechnung noch nie erlebt und haben ein Entgegenkommen des Restaurants erwartet, zumal sie laut eigenen Angaben in ihrem System noch Einblick in alle Rechnungen haben. Ihre einzige Sorge galt hier nur denjenigen zu finden, der unsere niedrige Rechnung beglichen hatte und nicht bescheidgab.

Very nice German/Mediterranean restaurant with a nice ambience, friendly service and delicious food

It's great that there is a specially screened playroom for children. And with plenty of toys too. Food portions are not too full but enough to fill you up. All you can eat is available somewhere else

We went there for our birthday and it was the best decision we could have made. Super chic, totally delicious food and the prices are appropriate for the food.

Daniels is a solid choice for a casual dinner in Magdeburg. The charming ambiance and decent food make it a good option for a relaxed evening with friends or family. While it may not be the most memorable culinary experience, it's a perfectly pleasant spot to enjoy a meal and good company.

Schön an der Elbe gelegen Essen und Service sehr Gut
