Eigelstein in Düsseldorf

Coller place in the media harbor. Nice and fast service

Delicious food, friendly service and prices were OK

Good quality/price ratio. Original dishes with a lot of flavor. Spacious and modern premises very close to the Rhine Tower. From my point of view, too modern regarding customer treatment. They force you to order by QR and the waiter is only responsible for bringing the dish to the table. Even the bill had to be paid with the cell phone.

We went there for dinner for the first time on the evening of November 1st. Yes, it is quite loud even at full capacity, but you can already imagine that. The smaller, heartier dishes were delicious (Brauhaus Pralinen) and Halve Hahn and an interesting combination. The Viennese veal schnitzel, on the other hand (even if there were two on top of each other), should be better removed from the menu or the chefs and owners should be sent to Austria to see what a Viennese schnitzel looks like there. Apparently they are pre-fried in an egg stone and then warmed up on one side, the lower sides are only browned. Meat okay but breading a disaster if you know that it could be different, which is what you could expect for 30 euros.

I regularly visit the Eigelstein restaurant at Düsseldorf's Medienhafen and have always been very satisfied with the food. The quality of the dishes is excellent and the ambience makes every visit a pleasant experience. Unfortunately, however, I had an unexpected and unfortunate experience with a waiter on my last visit. After I gave him a tip of three euros, he made it clear that he felt that amount was too small. He accordingly mentioned that he now had to share his own pocket with the other staff and gave an amount of 10% as a guideline. However, it should be emphasized here: Tipping is not an obligation, but a voluntary gesture that expresses the guest's appreciation for the service. Gratitude for every tip is usually a given in the catering industry. The quality of the cuisine at Eigelstein remains undisputed, but I hope that in the future the staff here will also be able to ensure a consistently positive and respectful interaction.

We went here for lunch. We reserved a table but that was not needed in the end. In a Saturday the area seemed relatively calm. But the place has a nice atmosphere, with an open kitchen/ bar and big windows that let in a lot of light. The staff was friendly and asked repeatedly if we liked the food. They gave us a QR-code at the beginning and we could order through that but also we could call the waiter. I liked the system because it goes fast and we can do your stuff in our time. The food was okay. We took a Flammkuchen with tomato, feta and Rucola and a pea soup. The food was okay for us but maybe not the best. Especially for the price it felt to us that the quality maybe was not really accordingly. Overall is was a solid experience for us and we would also recommend it.

The BEST outside from Cologne. Always happy, friendly, tasty and moderate.

Fries that tasted and looked like they had been reheated several times. Unfortunately the burger was unseasoned...

For many years, the food has been of very high quality and very friendly staff who provide very professional service.

I have known the Eigelstein for 10 years and it has changed significantly. Spare ribs used to be really good. Lots of sauce and nice potato wedges. It has completely subsided. The card with barcode also has no atmosphere. I won't visit the place again. Too bad. Then two stars for the nice quick answer ;) Maybe I've developed and can say something good today.

I had been to the Eigelstein again for a long time and was more than disappointed. The service was subpar to say the least. The wrong dishes were served (currywurst without sauce, i.e. bratwurst and the staff didn't even offer to take the plate away again and bring it back with sauce). The other food was just bad for these prices. I was simply used to better things from this place. I think that was my last visit.

The place has changed a lot Staff don't understand simple requests, the order wasn't brought as ordered Dishes totally over-seasoned and spicy without it being noted on the menu Children's plate with 3 fish fingers pathetic In general, it was no longer what we once knew It's normal that there were so many free tables That was different. ...

Quite expensive, but very good food with good ingredients!

Zelfgemaakte frites, heerlijke Wiener Schnitzel (2 was iets te veel) en zelfgemaakte hamburger. Verrassend goed voor zo’n groot restaurant. De wijn was zeker ook niet slecht en de bediening is uiterst aardig.

We actually wanted to eat somewhere else before going to the cinema. But between "unexpectedly closed" and "no space available without reservation" in other locations, this one stood out positively: yes They had a spot for two at the bar tables with stools! Service was very attentive, quick and careful. The food (a salad with fried salmon + veal slices with fried potatoes) came quickly and very well prepared. It was tasty and we didn't have to go to the cinema hungry or thirsty, thank you!

We were there on a vacation day. And since we don't want to be reachable on vacation, we of course didn't have a cell phone with us. Accordingly, we needed the menu and not the QR code...that was too much for the waitress. Very unfriendly staff if you don't use digital technology.

We celebrated our summer party here. The food was really very tasty.

Very nice and cozy brewery, great lunch.

Been here with guests from Berlin. They were excited too.

Hello, you are a great team, we were so pleasantly surprised by you, from the service to the food, it was just great. We would be happy if you were in our area too. Thank you for your hospitality and continued success and kind regards from beautiful Hohenlohe Frieder and Karin, we were happy to be your guests

Sorry that we inconvenienced your so-called “service staff” by visiting your restaurant. They didn't allow themselves to be disturbed, even when shouted, and continued their lively conversation as a threesome without bringing a menu; incredibly bold, a clear no go. No problem, we changed the side of the street and received first-class service in every respect at Hans im Glück.

Tarte flambée very tasty, Salad also recommended Service top

Niet gepland aan een van de terrastafels aangeschoven, iets gedronken en uiteindelijk heerlijk gegeten. Gevarieerde kaart met mix van lokale en andere gerechten. Gezellig en levendig terras waar je snel aanspraak hebt met onbekende tafelgenoten. De bescheiden jongen in de bediening was zorgvuldig en snel. Al met al een onverwacht genoegen.

Excellent service and good food!

A great restaurant with modern takes on German traditional dishes that has a fresh variety of other not so German dishes! Situated in the "Media Harbor" of Düsseldorf, this restaurant is not a very crowded area. Like most areas in Düsseldorf it's easily accessible by public transportation. The restaurant has a kind of beer-hall vibe to it, but with a modern twist. Ordering your food is done through a QR code that takes you to a digital menu, but the service of the staff was very good and friendly as well.

First class waiter. Price/performance is very good. 👍

Everything delicious! Service very nice!

Service a little slow. Average food

Original Köbes in the brewery is better than an online menu and ordering via the app. So the typical Rhineland flair is lost. What a shame!

I had couscous with grilled salmon. Delicious

The ordering mode (direct or via QR code) is a bit confusing at first. Food, service, price/performance ratio are still good.

Now it's simply too expensive (even with increased energy prices). Many dishes are offered without side dishes - the surprise comes with the bill. If you can't manage the food and want to take the rest with you, you'll be charged for the packaging (never experienced this anywhere before). Order only impersonally via QR code

At Eigelstein you will find something delicious on the menu for both lunch and dinner. The main theme of the restaurant is Rhenish cuisine and there is a very good selection of local dishes, especially on the evening menu. On the other hand, the lunch menu is disappointing due to the lack of a classic: unfortunately, you won't find anything special about it. Nevertheless, we were very satisfied with our lunch. I chose pasta with prawns and both the pasta itself and the plentiful prawns were cooked well. The pasta comes from a local factory and is fresh. You notice that and it enhances the dish even more. The price of the restaurant is not cheap, but very fair for the quality.

Good restaurant, it's a shame that there wasn't any Alt on the last visit 😁

Great, great, we’re always happy to be there

Hearty food, rustic ambience and friendly service staff. You can also go here with larger groups. Everyone will find something suitable. The food was delicious, as were the drinks.

I liked that very much. Service was very friendly and accommodating. The food (ribs) was really tasty and so was the Kölsch. Gladly again

Waiter didn't want to be spoken to 🥱 Menu was small and prices were very high.

Great, rustic place to eat lunch here.

Delicious freshly tapped Pilsener Urquell drunk on one of the few sunny days.

Great ordering system, so everything goes quickly.

Good shop, delicious food, nice service but extremely and unpleasantly loud!

Good brewery food and delicious Kölsch in Düsseldorf.

Nice place. Good food. Service longer than a trip to Moon...

Large terrace and huge, modern premises. One of the best sausages in the city

Very nice atmosphere, unfortunately very unfriendly treatment of the guests.

Himmel and Äd and the Spare Rips are a dream there. Very meat-heavy menu. Prices are now in the upper midfield. Waiters always very nice and friendly. I really enjoy coming here

Food great, service great, but really very loud, so conversations were rather difficult.

Located near the banks of the Rhine is probably the only KÖLSCH bar in the city of Düsseldorf! Sometimes it's also good to get a Kölsch in the Altbier zone!

Alt, Pils & Kölsch on tap! Food & service solid.

Nice outdoor area where we sat, absolutely friendly and courteous staff. Clear recommendation.

What a good place to have dinner! Tasty, excellent service and warm atmosphere

Very tasty food. Nice service, a modern brewery.

Gambas are really, really delicious👍 If you order Ziegen Salat, you can order a salad with fruit. The dressing is sweet and delicious. I substituted chicken breast for cheese and it was delicious.

The food is well portioned and attractively presented. We all enjoyed it. The service is good and the ambience is pleasant, although it is a bit noisy. The location in the Media Harbor has its own charm.

Food great. Prices appropriate for the service.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to give less than one star here. Well, it's not all bad, even if from my personal point of view a lot of things are really annoying now! Ordering and paying via QR code is still positive. That works really well too. Otherwise, unfortunately, there isn't much good to report. From my point of view, the prices have become more expensive because you now have to order everything in pieces and everything costs extra money. From my point of view, the dishes have also become smaller and in terms of taste it no longer has anything to do with the egg stone from before. That's my very personal feeling. What is now very annoying is that there is NO football shown there anymore. Only European Championship and World Cup games left. I think we, as regular guests, were lost forever.

Great Kolsh and raw ground pork if you're into that kinda thing... (a local made us try it. You Germans are crazy :) )

Completely overpriced. Schnitzel was an insult.

Are there once a week. Food and service good as always. Unfortunately, prices were increased via VAT surcharge from January 1st, 2024. However, the result is positive for us. Fewer people. Food comes faster

Super friendly and fast service, delicious German food!

Everything was great, the food was great, the service was great, the drinks were great (Kölsch is difficult)… but to each their own

The food was very tasty. The staff is a bit overwhelmed and too hectic but was still nice. Unfortunately, the toilets were very dirty, even in the early evening. Unfortunately, the benches inside are also very uncomfortable. But the food was really great.

A super great beer bar in Düsseldorf's media harbor!

Very nice and welcoming environment, professional and fast service

Great food and nice service 👌 Staff is always very friendly and there immediately 😄

Was there for a company party. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate, so everything took place inside. Very noisy atmosphere that made it difficult to have a conversation. Food was good. Service, despite almost full occupancy, very good. Waiters were very friendly and attentive.

As always, it was very comfortable. We had a great meal and delicious ice cream. Thank you

The restaurant was one of my favorite restaurants. The food was once again great (this time it was the mustard roast, last time it was fillet). The second beer my husband ordered was forgotten. It was a disaster when paying. The waiter complained to me because I didn't tip enough. He would have to? % to the kitchen and I wouldn't be serious if I only tipped €5. I was pretty exhausted and unfortunately another visit is no longer an option for me.

Nice shop, friendly service! Gladly again

The Eigelstein is located in Düsseldorf's media harbor and offers burgers, schnitzel and ice cream as well as some draft beers. Eating and drinking delicious food in a cozy atmosphere, meeting people and spending a lovely evening. We were kindly swept out at curfew. The only thing I personally found annoying was the voluntary toilet allowance in the restaurant, but otherwise it was a cool location.

A Köll island in the middle of Düsseldorf. We were pleasantly surprised and Köbes didn't disappoint us, but rather took us away with his relaxed manner. Dogs and humans are equally welcome and the food - we had the tapas mix 😊 - was very good and plentiful for two people. Thanks again to the Köbes!!!

Great shop for good home cooking at a fair price. You may pay 1-2€ more than outside the Media Harbor. But it's really delicious

A Cologne restaurant in the Forbidden City. Brave, but we were even happier to have ended up here. The only shop in Düsseldorf where you can get a decent Kölsch (Gaffel). From the diverse menu, which usually also includes some vegan dishes, we chose the goulash soup, which is a great price at €11.90. She was very tasty. I thought it was a bit spicy and when I brought it out I was immediately brought bread and sour cream. Super nice and friendly service, we only had to wait about 5 minutes for the food. We are excited. Absolutely clear recommendation!

Delicious and not so expensive if you don't want to and you can order online :-)

Not recommendable!! Wanted to eat and drink outside in the sun. After the waiters inside looked outside in annoyance (maybe 10 guests inside), a waiter finally came and asked us if we would wait for the bus. They are too lazy to work and don't understand their job as innkeepers. When we left with thanks, people called out to us across the terrace to see if we were in a bad mood. An impudence!!

We were there yesterday evening (3/20/24) and were able to sit comfortably outside. It was very well attended inside and out. We had to wait longer for service - which wasn't a big deal because we had time :) The service was also so friendly and so charming that we accepted the waiting time calmly. Ordering system via mobile phone with QR code possible, very practical. Food was tasty and looked good. We'd love to come back.

Indoor staff loudly gossiped about guests sitting outside. Our waiter didn't know any please or thank you. Tips were accepted with a quick “yes”.

I tried some of the dishes on the menu and they were all delicious. The service is great and so is the ambience. We come here regularly and have never been disappointed

Nice brewery atmosphere with modern ordering via smartphone.

Stopped at the Eigelstein before going to the cinema. Sitting comfortably outside in sunny weather. The food was delicious. Kölsch and burgers are also available in Düsseldorf. Friendly staff and a nice audience - overall a good atmosphere.

Excellent food, good atmosphere and attentive and friendly staff, highlighting the friendliness and good work of Marc, a ten-star waiter. Totally recommended.

Essen am Tisch mittels QR Code bestellt und gefühlt 2 Minuten später am Tisch. Qualität ok, Quantität knapp. Frisch gekocht sieht anders aus, aber für mittags schnell etwas essen ok…. Preislich noch akzeptabel ist aber auch der „Medienhafen“ für die hippen Leute….

There were mice in the restaurant! Is there a ban on these for the kitchen????

... you wait 20 minutes outside for a beer. It feels like there are 10 cellars running around here... & there's nothing going on outside.

Nice typical German bar and restaurant for people gathering drinking and enjoying company! Loved the vipes and enjoyed time with my friends.

Always a good choice for a lunch break...

Super tasty food, very nice service and nice ambience - we will definitely be back! 😍

Last visited February 2024. It is best to make a reservation if you're dining. Service was good. They serve both Alt and Kölsch. Ribs here was really good. No faults, would be a regular of mine if I lived here again.

Nice staff, good food (spare rips and files), negatively the noise in the restaurant.

Very nice service, the price range is acceptable, good food, a lot of variety to choose from

Nice restaurant in Media Hafen serving German cuisine. You can order over the app. If you have a large group, I strongly recommend one person order for the entire table so that there is no confusion. In our case we did not order “Frische Tagliatelle mit Gambas” but it was confusing as the waiter delivered and did not acknowledge the mistake. Finally, I got the corrected order “Frischer Fjordlachs” which was delicious and I enjoyed the meal with wine and Kölsch beer. For dessert I ordered, “Nougat-Espresso Brownie” which was quite a small portion but tasted delicious.

Bestest Gastronomieerlebnis seit langer Zeit Sehr gutes Essen, große Portionen, einzig das Bier ist etwas teuer… wenn der Halbe Liter mehr als 5€ kostet, empfinde ich das schon fast als unverschämt. Aber klare Empfehlung Super Bedienung guter Service und alles super schnell obwohl alle Platze besetzt waren

Nice restaurant with a cozy atmosphere and good food at fair prices

Everything runs online. Ordering is hardly possible without a smartphone. The food wasn't good. Cordon bleu extremely dry. Schnitzel Viennese style not much better.

Delicious schnitzel and gaff, but it was a little loud for conversation (it's also a brewery), the waiter was very nice, but the food came a little late. I'd love to come back! Good drink

Food was good, drinks too (Kölsch in Düsseldorf!), service friendly and fast. But my highlight was the online menu with the option to order and the shopping cart, which you can view until payment including the accrued costs. This way you never lose track of the drinks you enjoy. However, I found it a bit expensive.

Food plentiful and good. Service people very nice. Unfortunately the benches are very uncomfortable.

Ich war nach langer Zeit wieder in Düsseldorf für einen spannenden Termin. 🙌 Zum Abendessen habe ich mir einen leckeren Düsseldorfer Senfrostbraten im Eigelstein gegönnt. 😋 Das Roastbeef vom Black Angus Rind war perfekt medium gebraten und hatte eine knusprige Zwiebel-Senfkruste. Dazu gab es einen cremigen Pastinakenstampf mit Trüffel, knackigen wilden Brokkoli und eine aromatische Rotweinjus. 🤤 Das war ein echter Gaumenschmaus! 😍

Brauhaus Atmosphäre im Medienhafen mit Kölsch in Düsseldorf, keine Angst, Alt gibt es auch, unweit von Kasematten und Altstadt gelegen, modern, hip und mittelhochpreisig, halt Düsseldorf, aber ordentliche Qualität mit guter und schneller Bedienung.
