Domkönig in Magdeburg

It was my first time there. The staff was very friendly, but at times everything was a bit disorganized. But nothing worth mentioning. I was very satisfied. The food was delicious, but I wasn't entirely convinced by the value for money. But I would happily go back again and would recommend it 😁

This was the most delicious vegan pasta dish I have ever tried.

Very nice restaurant right next to the cathedral. Very good cuisine that I can warmly recommend, no, I have to!!! The beef cheeks were a poem. Otherwise we had the fruity toman soup as a starter and the tagliatelle scampi as the second main course - both also great! If we visit Magdeburg again at some point, we will definitely stop by again.

Very well eaten, in a great atmosphere. Very friendly staff..

We just wanted to look at the cathedral and passed the “Domkönig”, which also had great lunch options. You can sit outside and admire the cathedral. The service was very friendly, quick and had an eye for all guests. So please definitely go and eat asparagus there!! It was delicious: homemade hollandaise, asparagus not watery or overcooked... to the point! The schnitzel was completely ok. Really very tasty. Price with the location and quality of the food for EUR 25.90/person is completely okay. We would be happy to come back on our next visit to Magdeburg.

We know the restaurant (it's not a restaurant according to my imagination) from before - different name and different position - it was also a little better. The location is now great, the service is very friendly. Price-performance ratio can be better. It is not possible to order the predefined dishes differently - this means omitting one of the ingredients. The question arises for a restaurant: if the guests only want to drink - e.g. wine or beer. What else can you offer if you don't really want to eat? There are no alternatives - you have to order food, or just drink... At least two waiters couldn't offer us a better alternative.

We were here for lunch. We liked it, the food was tasty.

Wow, the food was amazing! In fact, people cook their own food here and don't just open a bag. You can see it in the kitchen and of course you can taste it too. We'll be back...

Very good cuisine, very attentive service, thank you for the pleasant time this afternoon, we will definitely see you again 👍

One of the few restaurants that serves German cuisine.

We can't give our visit a good rating. While the staff was very friendly, they were completely overwhelmed and disorganized. We had to wait a long time to place an order and wait even longer for the food. The schnitzel was frozen and over-fried. The quality of the food was disproportionate to the price!

As guests from Cologne, we spontaneously reserved a table and were thrilled. We ate very well in a very nice atmosphere and enjoyed the very friendly and professional service. A very good price-performance ratio.

Recommended. A little note to the team: If the focus is on pasta weeks and carbonara is offered on the menu, there should also be enough bacon.

Great service, great food, comfortable seating

We had a very nice evening in the Domkönig restaurant today. Very tasty food and super nice service, thank you very much!

Highly recommended, everything was harmonious and a wonderful menu... I would love to come back 🌞

I don't understand the reviews here: overpriced for frozen vegetables and schnitzel from the deep fryer? Salmon dry, cheeks I cook better, beef la la and spaetzle without taste, but with nuts....staff a bit overwhelmed and unfortunately not professional. Asking and serving the main guest is out of place...An additional €2 for "birthday service" per person for an ugly paper tablecloth...I can't believe it! The appointment at the restaurant was on a Sunday around 5:30 p.m....we had made reservations...a lot of the food was no longer in stock, cauliflower was probably particularly popular...reason: a lot of food was eaten here yesterday. You had a guilty conscience that you were now bothering the restaurant with your presence. At least that's what I got when I listened to the waitress. We then got food, unfortunately as I said, of poor quality, the taste was la la and sitting for a long time was obviously too much. Staff was tired and wanted to get off work. Too bad! What was that then? There probably won't be any regular guests here... at most, there will be one tourist every day due to the location... Conclusion: more appearance than reality!

It's very beautiful there. The price-performance ratio was right for us. Pleasant on sunny late summer evenings.

Goat cheese starter was a 10/10. The waiter was the friendliest waiter I have ever met in Germany!

Insanely delicious food. Super courteous service. Domkönig Burger is a bit too expensive as it is nothing special in itself. A note: if the menu lists schnapps with only one price, if you place a simple order you will also expect this price to be on the bill at the end. But the fact that doubles are always brought and billed without asking is not okay!

As every year, delicious, great service and great ambience.

At the Domkönig we always have ours. "Girls' meeting". The food is very tasty and the service is polite and attentive. Simply great as always.👍👍👍

My daughter invited me here for her birthday. We had just caught a time where 3 birthday parties were getting their lunch. This made it take a little longer. But that didn't bother us, because it's comfortable here to talk, not just to eat. I like the furs for warmth that are everywhere on the chairs. I love fruit juice spritzers and here they have strawberry juice, something I haven't had in many years. The food was also very tasty: mushroom stroganoff with butter spaetzle. My daughter had the delicious Mediterranean pasta. What always bothers her about the menu cards in restaurants for her birthday in January: there are still some of the Christmas dishes on them that you somehow don't want to eat in the new year because they were enjoyed too often in December. But that's the way it is. You'll be lucky if you find a restaurant in January that doesn't have any company holidays. I liked it and I'll be back.

Unbeatable! Super friendly, service at a high level, attentive and courteous, absolutely delicious food, top top top! Definitely a recommendation to choose over all the surrounding restaurants!

Super attentive and friendly service. And the food is high quality at a reasonable price.

I spontaneously found a very nice place in the stylishly furnished restaurant. No run-of-the-mill cuisine, very tasty food. I recommend the goat cheese as a starter. The salad with vinaigrette is to die for. We'd love to come back!

Were here for lunch for the first time. The selection wasn't like the Fitschis, it was manageable and tasted very tasty. We can only recommend this restaurant. Thanks again

Yesterday we were able to enjoy a great dinner in this very cozy restaurant. The service was top and the food was perfect.

The service was friendly, but also a bit distracted. Some drinks had to be ordered several times before they finally came! It was very loud there. (also because of the music, so everyone was obviously trying to talk louder) We waited a long time for food. Food was lukewarm and the roulade was quite al dente. All in all it tasted pretty good (23.90 euros)

A very nice restaurant! Top service! Nice ambience! The food was super delicious! 🤤

We were there for dinner with several people. Staff was very friendly. We were looking forward to the evening because we received the restaurant as a recommendation. The food was at the table quickly. We had 2 starters that were delicious. Unfortunately, the main courses were nothing. Goose leg, game goulash and schnitzel were extremely dry. We wouldn't do that again.

Thank you for the very loving coffee setting for our guests. Bus travel Frank Schenk

Very nice atmosphere and flavors I haven't encountered for a long time.

The food was delicious and plentiful. Unfortunately we had to wait a long time before we could place the order (only after a notification) The atmosphere is more like a bar than a restaurant.

Very nice and friendly service, gastronomy with extremely good food👍

Very positive surprise. Unfortunately, extremely long waiting times. I still give it five stars because the service is friendly and the food is excellent.

We were at the Domkönig for our small wedding celebration. From the first consultation to the end everything was great. Great food, friendly staff and nice ambience.

A nice restaurant with good food and of course friendly service. We were there with a large dog, he was welcome and provided with a water bowl.

Deserved 5 stars in all categories. We stopped there spontaneously, the atmosphere just invites you to linger and the food was delicious. The service also leaves nothing to be desired.

Modern, clean furnishings and a pleasant atmosphere with friendly service. However, the food and drink offerings are quite unspectacular. Menu overall manageable. Aimed primarily at meat and fish lovers. Vegetarian guests can choose from a tomato soup, a salad, a tarte flambée and a pasta with zucchini. The lunch menu also offered a vegan lentil bolognese. It is positive, however, that some dishes can be adapted upon request, such as bruschetta without parmesan. Overall, there is a lack of creativity, especially when it comes to vegetarian or vegan options. Dessert selection with two options not very inviting. Solid midfield in terms of taste. Portions generous. The price on offer therefore remains within an acceptable range, although the dishes are quite simple. The range of drinks for non-alcoholic alternatives covers the usual standard range, without any creative accents. Expensive in terms of price. Overall, an evening without culinary highlights. Sophistication is missing – The element that could persuade guests to visit again. Kitchen is too simple and offers nothing that you couldn't prepare yourself at home, even on stressful days.

Great restaurant, staff was quick and friendly. Stay like that, make the beer a little cooler. Highly recommended!!!!

Great kitchen, the food was very tasty. Also a cozy atmosphere to feel good. Unfortunately, the service was hardly visible and we always had to make ourselves noticed. Too bad.

Super great restaurant. Great food, incredibly nice staff, great ambience. We'd love to come back!!!!

Large portions, good price, good location

Super delicious and simply perfect, we can only recommend it😍

Four of us went here for dinner. Three times the beef cheeks, once the pork steak marinated in beer. I had the pork steak. The meat was well marinated so it had a hint of beer. This made it very tender. Fried potatoes, well, well fried, but not seasoned at all. There were also fried chanterelles. These weren't fried at all. They were steamed and not seasoned at all - no salt, pepper, fine onions, garlic, a bit of parsley, there was nothing on them. The salad that was on the plate was okay. For €25.90 I had different expectations here. The beef cheeks, I only tried the sauce once. This was tied too thickly. The black beer was too intense. Ready-made sauce with a dash of beer. The ambience was nice. The service attentive. Nice location. The food is too expensive for what you get. Maybe unlucky too. But that didn't convince me.

Top. A visit to the Cathedral King is worth it. The staff is nice and friendly. The food is delicious. The location is very nice. The price-performance ratio is right. I'd love to come back.

Very nice location near the Elbe and opposite the cathedral. Very tastefully and comfortably furnished. Very friendly and good service!!! The food also tasted very good.

Food was very tasty and service was very good.

I can only recommend the restaurant to everyone! Perfect ❤️🙏

A really nice restaurant with very good cuisine and a good price-performance ratio!

Nice restaurant. It tasted very tasty. The portions were completely sufficient and we got high quality ingredients for the price. We ate pork fillet tips for €15.90. Price-performance okay.

Good food, very friendly service. Gladly again

Very nice atmosphere and the food is very tasty and the service is also very friendly. Definitely recommended if you are visiting Magdeburg. Had bruschetta as a starter and baked potato with chicken and a delicious salad as a main course. Really delicious.

We were there for lunch today. Great service, super tasty. We will be back

We were at the Domkönig for the second time today because we were really impressed by the food and ambience the first time there. There is a clear recommendation here and two thumbs up. The service is also on point and friendly. However, we had a voucher that we wanted to pay with. We were then told that we could neither credit the remaining amount nor make a cash payment. Therefore we could only use the remaining amount today... A little difficult after the main course, dessert and 2 drinks per person.... Tip or not. But at 20 euros or more it's a bit annoying and it's incomprehensible that it's handled this way here. Therefore it gets a thumbs down because there is no customer focus...

Great ambience. Nice service (unfortunately it was a bit confused that day) Small but nice menu. The drinks and cocktails are great.

Unfortunately once and never again. The food wasn't warm, the asparagus wasn't cooked through and the sauce was cold. The potatoes weren't cooked either. The waiter said that a sauce would be enough when we asked if we could please get some more sauce for the asparagus. The prices are way too high for the quality of the food. We were also served the wrong drinks.

The food tasted excellent, the boss is an incredibly friendly and courteous host and the ambience right next to the cathedral creates a lovely charm. We recommend.

It's a good place to celebrate. The family birthday was very well received, despite the dog and children, everything went smoothly and the small "obstacles" were dealt with very professionally. Thank you for that 👍

Food is very tasty and the service is attentive.

We dined there with a group of 9 people. The restaurant is very inviting. We were served very courteously; everyone received their food at the same time. Whether bruschetta, beef cheeks, veal liver strips, Asparagus with schnitzel or asparagus with salmon fillet, all dishes were excellently prepared. the food was super tasty. We thank you for a thoroughly successful evening.

It was super tasty. The service was completely fine. Friendly and quick. We had the “classic” beef cheeks and the schnitzel with asparagus. Absolute recommendation.

The food was excellent. You also meet a motivated staff. I come from Luxembourg and didn't know where to go. I was at the right place for the DOMKÖNIG.

It was a perfect match! Two weeks ago we celebrated a youth consecration there and used it as a location. Starting with the loving decoration, it continued with the super friendly staff. The food was plentiful and incredibly tasty 👍🏻 Highly recommended

Food very tasty. Service friendly.

A great place with cool service. You are sometimes invited to watch handball here, so SCM fans are welcome. I feel good here.

Great food. Friendly service. Mega ambience. We recommend.

Very nice restaurant with a view of the cathedral. The food was very good. Service was great, not a long wait for the order. Very nice staff. I can only recommend it. And I would love to eat there again when I'm in town.

Thank you very much for the good service and the very tasty food. 😋 We would love to come back.

Asparagus was far too hard and the schnitzel was unfortunately tasteless and dry.

Got a table spontaneously and was very satisfied: delicious food, pleasant atmosphere, very friendly service - that's how it should be. 😊👍🏻

Always good drinks and a nice atmosphere.

Can only be recommended. As the rating shows. Again and again. Were there for the first time today and were immediately impressed. Cool boss and relaxed service.

Great flair and cozy atmosphere. Food was delicious. Gladly again.

Unfortunately neither convincing service nor convincing food. A pity…

Great restaurant with very good food and fast and attentive staff. You have to try the ox cheeks. A dream. Reservation in advance is recommended.

This place is recommended for people who like reheated ready meals! Unfortunately, “freshly” cooked food is not served in this restaurant. After we ordered, our lunch was served within 5 minutes! The "rubber" potatoes (perhaps steamed) were peeled by machine. The still almost raw leek was thickened with roux! Unfortunately, the meatballs, which were made by machine, were only warmed up (not fried). Nevertheless, we are still looking for a restaurant in Magdeburg that serves “freshly” prepared German lunch.

Landed in the Cathedral King by chance. Beef roulade and beef cheeks, including side dishes, were beautifully prepared and delicious. Prices were completely ok and the service was of course. No fake friendliness. We'd be happy to come back on our next visit to Magdeburg.

Nice restaurant with German cuisine.. A bit pricey...but also good portions.

We had lunch here with our visitor + dog. Very accommodating, food and drinks were delicious.

I don't want to say that was bad. It would have been better at home. The roulade and red cabbage from the Mirko. The other one too 🙈The pasta is destroyed. A richer experience 😂

Very cozy, very tasty and very nice staff. We'd love to come back.

We were there spontaneously on a Sunday and were lucky to get 2 places. We were served friendly and the food was good.

Very tasty food. Friendly staff.

Good food and a nice beer. I had beef cheeks and was very satisfied.

We were guests as a group on a Friday evening. We were able to convince ourselves of the delicious food and drinks ;) Great ambience, friendly staff, boss greets you personally ;) clean sanitary facilities. perfect location

Very tasty food. The roulade and the schnitzel with fried potatoes were absolutely top. The service was very friendly and attentive!!!!

Good and cozy restaurant. The food is delicious, the service is top. I particularly liked the pictures on the wall!

Great food. Small menu. The dishes were of exceptional quality. The service staff were very courteous and nice. Everything great.

Sandra Busse’s review from 5 months ago is completely accurate! There is nothing to add! I don't understand the mostly very good reviews! Maybe we were just unlucky? But I don't want to try that again, it was too expensive! I definitely won't be celebrating my 65th birthday here! A pity!

Pleasant atmosphere, very nice service, delicious food! We recommend!!!

Great food, attentive service. Ambiance is a matter of taste. The view is nice. Would love to come back.

Food was OK, the salmon was a little overcooked. This was certainly because we had pre-ordered as a group and the food was for 20 people. Was pre-ordered. Ambiance and staff very good

We were there spontaneously and got a table for 2 people, very nice service, delicious food and a nice ambience

Delicious. Good service and nice atmosphere

Food was delicious, great service, gladly again

Calm place and with a good music for relaxing and have a conversation while having a pretty goo meal

Alles sehr gut, nur die Heizung mussten wir uns selbst anmachen, ESSEN FANTASTICO

Wir waren im alten Jahr nochmal schön essen. Das Ambiente und Bedingung war super nett. Essen war auch gut, Preis Lst. muss man sich wohl daran gewöhnen, auf Dauer kann man sich dieses wohl nicht leisten.
