Die Taverne Jena in Jena

Unfortunately, the meat wasn't medium-rare, but it was cooked all the way through, but it was still tasty. We've had much better tzatziki and grilled pepperoni.

Very kind and generous service (a generous glas of wine). Calzone was really tasty. Definitely a place worth visiting while in Jena.

I can't recommend this tavern. I had a tough lamb chop. I complained, but I didn't get a replacement or anything. The waitress said, "That can happen," and said, "Yes, of course it can happen," but she didn't offer a replacement.

There are always complainers, you can't please everyone 🤷🏼 Today (it's a public holiday), we were warmly welcomed by friendly and attentive staff and served delicious, tasty, and plentiful food. Totally good value for money, we'd be happy to come back. Thank you.

Very nice restaurant with a large outdoor seating area. Food and drinks are okay. Not for those on a budget...

One of the best restaurants in Jena. Great staff and amazing food.

Very friendly and generous staff. Pets/dogs allowed. Ate Greek food three times. Generous portions and satisfactory quality of the food.

Great food, super friendly service, a playground in the garden, and plenty of space for larger groups. However, you should make a reservation in advance.

We've been here several times and always enjoy coming back. For us, the best, friendliest, most attentive, and delicious restaurant in Jena. Thank you for the lovely evening we spent with you. Others can learn a little, or even more, from this experience, how good gastronomy works. We felt very comfortable. See you again soon.

The service was super friendly, both to children and pets. The food arrived in just 20 minutes. There's a great beer garden with a small playground right next door for the little ones. The food was also fantastic!

Sometimes there is a long wait for the food, hence -1*, but the taste is perfect and the portions are adequate.

Simply excellent. A super friendly, attentive team with a sense of humor. We felt very comfortable. Beautiful conservatory, lovely garden. Is it completely authentic? Find out! 😉 Conclusion: Great!

WOW! A fantastic restaurant decorated with attention to detail. The entire ambiance, both inside and out, is fantastic! The staff is on the ball and incredibly friendly, and the food was simply delicious 😋. We'd love to come back 😊.

Excellent Greek and Italian food in a fine ambience, that's how the tavern presents itself. Good service completes the good picture. Highly recommended for those with a slightly larger budget.

We stop there every time we visit the city. Very good restaurant, with good service, tasty food and a nice atmosphere. Reservation required in advance. Thank you!

It is in a very idyllic location. Every guest is taken into consideration...even the smallest dwarf

A great restaurant in a perfect environment, the waiter team is super nice and funny, the food is delicious and the portions are plentiful 👍👍

Delicious food, served quickly. Respond well even to small complaints.

Very good restaurant. With a good price-performance ratio and very nice staff.

A super nice and cozy restaurant There is something on the memory card for every taste, whether it's schnitzel, pizza, pasta or Greek dishes The prices are also completely ok Portions are really big enough to fill you up Very friendly staff I can only recommend this restaurant

Food very tasty, service friendly. Gladly again.

Everything was fine. If I'm in Jena again, I'll definitely come back!!

Celebrated my birthday in a very nice atmosphere. Wonderful food, very happy again. Above all, the staff was very nice and very quick.

The picture shows a piece of gyro with the fat still visible. I've only ever seen gyro on a skewer, the outermost part of which is cut off, similar to a Turkish doner kebab. This typically gives the meat a roasted flavor and makes it firm, while the fat cooks out over time. Here, however, in the gyro pan with Metaxa sauce, the meat had no bite, was often fatty and marbled, and was limp and soft with no roasted flavor. I've posted a photo of the fat on the meat. The Metaxa sauce didn't have any particular flavor, and the cheese on top was thick, but had no flavor of its own. Several different employees were involved, but we received the appetizer platter for everyone at the same time as the main courses, so the table and our stomachs were extremely full.

Parking is available in front of the restaurant. Super friendly welcome. Incredibly delicious food at reasonable prices, and helpful staff. Thank you.

Always a pleasure to be a guest. Food delicious. Nice service, what more could you want…

Looking for its equal, super recommendable

Outside the usual peak times, yes, at peak times it is an imposition, too many seats in a small space. The friendly and competent service is really positive.

Thank you for the great evening in the VIP area. Once again everything was perfect. Great birthday

We spontaneously decided to go to the tavern for dinner. Delicious food, delicious drinks and very nice waitresses and waiters. Happy to come back!

Everything was perfect, always happy to come back

Great service!!! Great food!!!Great ambience!!!

Perfect! It doesn't get any better!

Always friendly staff, you don't have to wait forever for your food even if it's very busy. There is something for everyone and it always tastes great.

Beautiful ambience, outside and inside. The service was consistently attentive, friendly and prompt. The food was fantastic, meat cooked to perfection. We had a wonderful evening and would love to come back.

I can recommend this restaurant, but be sure to book a table in advance. Nice staff. Delicious food with reasonable portion sizes.

Beautiful location, great food, very nice service. Recommended

A great restaurant, super nice service. Super delicious food. Always worth a visit. We had dinner with you again today and it was another very nice evening. Thank you for that.❤️

Large, well-kept rooms and a very attentive, quick staff are particularly highlighted in my rating. The menu, from which I choose a reasonably priced vegetarian pizza at €11, features a wide range of Greek and Italian dishes. As a starter I choose olives, tzatziki and bread, all great. However, the pizza disappointed me and brought the rating down. Of the artichokes announced on the menu on the veg. There is absolutely no pizza to be found. They are simply missing. The pizza is a bit too cheese-heavy for my taste, which also visually means that there is not much of the colorful vegetables such as peppers, mushrooms, broccoli... to be seen. All in all, a recommendable, nice restaurant with a parking space in front of the door and the possibility for larger private events.

Fast service Food was great Staff also responded to requests Price-performance was okay here Clean toilets

Very crowded, but still everything under control. Respect.

Good Greek and Italian food. Super nice staff. Price appropriate for what was served.

Wir möchten uns bedanken für die freundliche Bedienung und das ausgezeichnete Essen. Wir kommen immer wieder gerne zu ihnen. Vielen Dank .

The Tavern, a large but cozy restaurant. Service staff very accommodating. Food is a dream. One or two dishes are a bit overpriced. It's more than worth a visit.

Food was super tasty 😋 and Taem is very nice. We'll definitely be back.

The tavern, a place in Jena that was previously unknown to me. Interesting concept with Greek and Italian dishes. The quality of the ingredients as well as the dishes themselves were extremely good. The prices are very reasonable and higher average. The service was extremely attentive and took excellent care of us. The atmosphere is clean and well maintained. It is possible to sit outside and inside. Parking is limited - early visit is recommended. Gladly again!

Everything was really tasty, the service was a really nice team, there was even currants - unfortunately I didn't find juice, cherries and chicken, but there were strawberries and turkey breast.

Great service food excellent price performance good 👍 LG. Bea and Mario from Schleiz.

Always happy. Thank you for everything. We wish you a nice Advent season and a merry Christmas.

Very cozy restaurant, both Greek and Italian dishes are offered here. Price/performance ok

Very friendly and fast service. Sufficient portions and at the end there is an ouzo. The tavern is a cozy meeting place with family, friends or work colleagues.

There were very good dishes, everything was clean and very nicely furnished/decorated and the service was also very friendly and the cuisine was very good. We can only recommend it!

Very tasty food at moderate prices, comfortable seating in a great atmosphere and courteous, friendly and fast service! I can only recommend it! Very happy again!

This restaurant is highly recommended, we were there today before opening time, of course no problem. Thanks again! We are in Jena very often and eating there is a must for us. LG Ines and Jens 🍀🙋🏼‍♂️

really good food, extremely friendly staff, overall definitely worth a visit

A waitress accidentally spilled Ramazzotti on my shirt. There was a small verbal apology...that was it

Absolutely delicious food, no matter what you order, everything is beautifully prepared and the service is also absolutely great. I can always recommend it. But on weekends you have to make a reservation

Preise werden i.mer teurer, Essen kalt, und wenn voll ist hat Bedienung kein Durchblick mehr.es war einmal besser.Teller werden abgeräumt, obwohl noch andere an Tisch essen.Das geht nicht und noch nie erlebt.

I think the concept of being Italian and Greek at the same time is great! Many interesting combinations can be put together this way. We would like to come more often!

Friendly staff and good Greek food

It was good as always. The restaurant is a sure-fire success.

Super mega great restaurant 👍👍👍 very friendly staff, great price and delicious food

Very nice restaurant. It was filled to capacity, so it was very loud at times. Nice and quick service, very tasty food. We'd love to come back.

Mega friendly staff. The food tastes excellent from the starter to the dessert. No long waiting time. There is practically always someone there if you want to reorder something or pay. The ambience is very nice both inside and outside. Always my pleasure :)

Pizza underground, the dough is frozen, value for money is simply outrageous.

I totally forgot to take pictures. The food was super delicious. I had the gyros gratinated with metaxa sauce and cheese and had fries with tzatziki. Simplicity delicious. Always happy.

Very nice restaurant...the service is extremely helpful and friendly...price performance is also okay...you should always make a reservation...it's always very full...a little too full for me...but a great restaurant ...

A great restaurant. Everyone is very friendly and concerned about the guest's well-being. The food tastes great. Despite the high number of people, you feel seen and well looked after. Keep it up, we'll be happy to come back.

Food was very tasty, nice atmosphere and friendly staff

Pommes lasch gewürzt, Teller lieblos angerichtet, nicht die allerkleinste Salatdeko, Schnitzel trocken, Nudeln pappig, trotz hoher Preise

Nice place. Tasty food at acceptable prices.

Dinner for two with starter, fish platter, dessert, water and wine in the cozy dining room. Despite many larger parties and the restaurant being fully booked, we were served friendly and quickly. The quality and the price level are completely fine. Highly recommended...

Good Italian and Greek cuisine, nice and attentive staff, nice atmosphere.

We are always thrilled, highly recommended.

Quality food and quality service. Prices are of course also slightly more expensive

Super delicious food and a very nice restaurant. The service was absolutely great.

Very courteous, attentive and family-friendly staff. Plenty of seating inside and outside and a small, beautiful playground right by the beer garden. Delicious food, good portions at a reasonable price. Recommended at any time

I always enjoy going there, I feel very comfortable there

Food top, service top, very nice atmosphere! We have been coming for years and have never been disappointed. The food always tastes very good and comes quickly, the service is very good. Always friendly and attentive staff. There's nothing to complain about.

Delicious and always a pleasure😊🥰

Very friendly and attentive service. There's nothing to complain about when it comes to the food either. This gave us a wonderful evening. Thanks.

Very nice staff, delicious food, small playground for children. Possibility to sit outside. Pre-ordering is recommended due to high demand

Solid restaurant...but given the number of dishes on the menu, it's difficult to maintain high quality everywhere and at all times. Service is very nice and the children's playground is a great feature, unfortunately a bit outdated.

We were extremely satisfied - the food and service were simply top!

Nice restaurant, good food and nice service

Everything is just right there. Very friendly service, great food, nice ambience and good price-performance ratio. Top address.

Everything is always excellent and the service is very friendly. As always, we were very satisfied and the food was very tasty.

If it wasn't already so well known, I would classify it as an insider tip. But it is definitely considered a culinary stronghold. What's more, the entire team works very harmoniously and attuned to each other; they understand the craft of gastronomy and restaurants. No effort is spared to make the customer satisfied, no, happy... You respond to every wish and try to fulfill them as best as possible. And… Always, really always, you try to create space for three or four people. Super nice atmosphere, inside and out, and you can linger and feast there for a long time. Recommendations include mixed fish platter for two people. Or a freshly caught fish... Everything at its finest, highly recommended! Top !

Exceptionally good restaurant, very generous portions, very courteous service.

We came spontaneously and got a place straight away. The table was cleaned beforehand. Very nice and friendly service. Large selection of food. Even though it was full, we didn't have to wait long for our food. It tasted great.

So I come from the beautiful north. I wanted something delicious to eat with a colleague and looked for a good Greek restaurant online. The tavern caught my eye and everything looked very good. The food came and I was really disappointed, everything was so carelessly prepared. For me there are no two times. Soory Yes, tastes are different.

More than ample selection and size of portions, staff is always friendly and quick, beautiful beer garden, always a pleasure to visit.

too crowded, too loud, food came very quickly, table to table - not great

Very positively surprised! Nice service and super delicious food. We would like to come again!

The food tastes great, as does the location, but for years there has been an increasing disproportion between content and price. The portions are getting smaller and the price increases with each new card version. We have had regular customers there for years, but will avoid the whole thing in the future.

The food is always very good. The service was very careful. You should definitely have reserved in advance.

We always enjoy going to the tavern with our guests. It makes sense to reserve in advance as it is very busy. The food is great and the ambience and service are also wonderful.

Great team, great service, delicious food, great value for money

A very nice restaurant, attentive service, good food, clean toilets and parking options. We're happy to come back from Stuttgart

Super great, fast, hard-working team. The food was also great and cooked exactly how I wanted it. I just can't say anything more about it.
