El Erni in Kassel

The food was very good. The service staff was friendly and professional, yet not intrusive like in other fine-dining restaurants. Overall, highly recommended. Prices are high, but more than justified. 10/10

Today was my first time here, but not my last. What great service and amazing food. Thank you so much.

Everything went great. Very attentive and nice service. The wine and the selected fish dishes are highly recommended. It was a great evening

The best Spaniard in northern Hesse

It was really great. Are very satisfied.

Very courteous and attentive staff. We were contacted by the restaurant after a reservation request and waiting list and had a very nice evening with delicious food, which was sophisticated and quite filling! Only recommended!!!

This restaurant is absolutely recommended. There is a particularly beautiful fish menu, several different varieties, sea bream and halibut, shrimp and salmon dishes. Real flowers, cloth napkins and good service make the ambience perfect.

El Erni is an excellent Spanish restaurant in Kassel. The restaurant seems quite inconspicuous, but offers first-class cuisine and very friendly, attentive and professional service. If you want to eat very well, El Erni is a great place to go.

If I could, I would give it 6-7 stars. There is only one word for this extraordinary culinary and service experience: GREAT!!!

Yes, this is a wonderful restaurant with a lot of charm...

It's always great. Everything is just right here.

Really a very special restaurant! If you like Spanish cuisine with a touch of luxury, this is the place for you! Very courteous and friendly service. Incredibly delicious food. No wonder you have to reserve here weeks in advance.

The restaurant is still worth a visit. The food is excellent. The service is attentive and friendly, but not as exceptional as it was years ago.

Still one of the best addresses in Kassel

Excellent in all areas. Attentive service and the food was top. The Black Angus beef tartare is beautifully presented with all the side dishes. The lamb fillet tips in thyme sauce were buttery tender. We can only recommend the restaurant to anyone looking for high quality cuisine.

Excellent restaurant! 🤌 Classy, ​​refined, delicious. 🫶 Any recommendation

For me the best restaurant in Kassel. Great atmosphere - especially outside in summer - and the food is also excellent. I haven't eaten anything here that didn't impress me.

Seit Jahren unser Lieblingsspanier in Kassel! Eine tolle Betreuung durch Kerstin & Erni und ihr Team, gepaart mit einer sehr leckeren, hochwertigen Küche garantieren immer einen wunderschönen Abend in schönem Ambiente. Innen wie Außen ist man gut aufgehoben. Wer hier meckert, muss ein sehr unglücklicher Mensch sein!

An absolute must for meat lovers! Spanish cuisine delights here with an impressive variety of delicious meat dishes. The attentive and warm staff ensure a pleasant atmosphere, while the stylish ambience exudes peace and harmony - perfect for enjoyable conversations with excellent food. Every visit was a pleasure and I'm already looking forward to the next time!

Nice restaurant that is always worth a visit! The food and wine are a dream. The service is great. Gladly again.

El Erni - number 1 in Kassel. Simply better than all other good restaurants in Kassel. 4.8 stars says it all. The service level. Quality and taste of the food, ambience. Price/performance ratio Excellent! El Erni is enjoyment in every respect - excellent performance! Compliments to the owners Kerstin & Erni. P.S. There is plenty of parking space within a 2.5 minute walk at the Rewe parking lot.

Always beautiful food, beautiful people and beautiful ambience. We'd love to come back. Thank you.

Terrific!!!! The service was top and very accommodating!!! Absolutely recommended!!!!

The fish soup absolutely good! The prawns in oil are very good. The grill plate too. Unfortunately the duck was a bit tough. Great ambience.

Great service. Very tasty food.

As always, extremely tasty, great service and a very nice atmosphere.

I like it when I also get a selection of tapas at the Spaniard. I missed that. Food was tasty, good quality of products.

To put it bluntly: Two thumbs up and happy to come back soon. Everything homemade, fish of the highest quality. Had tapas variation for two, was super tasty, great wine selection. Desert was also very tasty with fresh fruits. Service very attentive and friendly. As I said…. Gladly again soon.

From the telephone reservation to the dessert, everything was extremely good and professional. Wine accompaniment by recommendation went very well with the beef steak, which was prepared on-point as requested. I will definitely be joining my girlfriend in the future El Erni will be a guest again.

Great restaurant, delicious food, very attentive and warm service! Prices fair and reasonable!

Good restaurant and always been very satisfied when we were there.

Once again great food with great service. We would love to come by again.

This is the third time I've been to the restaurant and I'm always thrilled with the steak in port wine sauce! It is the best steak, in my opinion, that you can eat in Kassel.

Always excellent service and fantastic food! Be sure to reserve in advance!

Delicious, good and friendly service, fair prices

We love coming here to celebrate our anniversary 🥰 the right atmosphere

If you want to experience a special evening in a pleasant atmosphere and with delicious food and drinks, this is the right place for you🤩

Perfect for me for almost 20 years

After the theater we spontaneously went to the restaurant. It was almost 10 p.m. and the store was still pretty full. We were greeted very friendly and were of course allowed to order a glass of wine with a few small things. The employees were super friendly and professional. Unfortunately, you don't find something like this that often lately. We were very impressed with the whole restaurant. We will definitely come back on our next visit to Kassel. Thank you for the pleasant evening. Kind regards, Tina Bonaffini Caputo

Good but slightly overpriced food. Unfortunately we are a bit disappointed with the service.

Very happy🥳 My husband chooses a restaurant with such an atmosphere propose to me

Unfortunately, we haven't been to El Ernie for a few years, but we'll be back more often now. The dishes were all perfectly prepared and the excellent onion rings completely surprised me as I had never had them before. Everything is very neat, clean and tastefully decorated. The waitresses are very nice.

We'll be back. It was just a very nice evening with you ❤️

The best restaurant in Kassel. El Erni is simply unbeatable. Always happy again!

Delicious food in a nice atmosphere.

Came here at 22.40, but it has been closed already

Food is very tasty, ambience is also good. Staff attentive and nice, we will be back.

Extremely good! Highly recommended. Large selection of good wines and spirits. The food, whether fish, meat, other side dishes or salads, is all of excellent quality, beautifully prepared and very tasty. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Be sure to reserve in advance. Price level is okay for what is offered.

For me one of the best addresses in Kassel. No matter whether fish or meat, everything is top notch. The service is amazingly good: everyone can speak English and menus are also available in English. I was there with colleagues from the UK. This was very helpful 👍

The perfect restaurant to enjoy good food

One of the best restaurants in Kassel. Great ambiance and super dooper food. The portions are also very large, so if you are not so hungry, I suggest you share the starters and main dishes. 😉

they should take care with deep fried things, the calamares had a weird texture, the breading on them was oil soaked and falling apart and the homemade papas were not well cooked, also soaked and tasting too much to extra virgin olive oil so they were really heavy to digest.

My first visit and although I was a bit overwhelmed by the really good menu, we were treated very friendly and courteously and rewarded with excellent food! Wonderful!

When I'm in Kassel, El Erni is a must! Everything just fits here. The food, the location and the service. The great service in particular makes a huge difference to “normal” restaurants.

Excellent food. Unfortunately we had to wait 40 minutes for our dessert.

Addendum from 5 stars to 2: Been here for decades but won't be here in the future. Unfortunately, the steak was like a shoe sole for 40 euros, and the staff was unusually unfriendly. People are happy to pay for good quality, but the way prices have risen exponentially in recent years is truly remarkable. Simply wonderful, El Erni is definitely one of my top 3 in Kassel. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, the staff is very attentive and the menu always invites you to culinary experiences. We really enjoy dining here and enjoy the lovely ambience; time flies here in a flash. The food is prepared very quickly and always looks excellently created. The menus outside the menu are always very nicely put together. It's always wonderful to come here again and again, you sit quietly by yourself with wonderful music, what more could you want...

Very nice atmosphere, with good food.

The food was excellent, the service was very nice and always asked if anything was missing so you always felt comfortable. The only thing I personally have a slight complaint about is the price-performance ratio. Some things are too expensive for me. E.g. the dessert ice cream vodka with fruit. But that is my personal opinion. I'll definitely be back

Super tasty 👍. Great service nice atmosphere

Always a fantastic meal 😍 from the welcome to dessert, fantastic service and highly recommended…

Unfortunately, price performance doesn't match

It was a wonderful evening and I can only recommend it. The food was excellent

We can see the hype around this Don't understand the restaurant: the food is OK, but we think it doesn't remind us of Spain. Overall, the lamb was very dry, as was the pork and the (frozen) salmon - unfortunately completely over-fried/deep-fried, so that it already had a hard crust on the outside. The so-called papas were also fried - I would have expected fresh, small jacket potatoes in the style of papas arrugadas or similar; The included butter sauces didn't have a taste that matched the other fatty dishes. The turkey schnitzel with cheese gratin and sauce also reminded us little of Spanish food. The same applied to the starters: the aioli was thin and tasteless, the olives tasted like inexpensive canned olives from the supermarket, the tap water was charged at EUR 6; the spirits collection from Papidoux, Carlos I and Amaretto Saronne are standard goods without quality. We won't eat there anymore.

Seit nunmehr 37 Jahren habe ich diese freundliche und Köstliche Gastronomie erlebt, die Weihnachtsfeier mit meinem Betrieb, Geburtstage und schöne romantische Abende mit meiner Frau, danke das ihr heute noch so freundlich und immer bemüht seid euren Gästen einen schönen Abend zu schenken!

Working hours on google is buy 01.00am but already at 23h we was refused to enter. Family of 3. Just update your working hours, save people time. When you visit some city you try to find help from google what is open and what is closed.

A very good restaurant and a flagship for Kassel. The food is delicious, the wine list is balanced and the service is very friendly. Personally, I would appreciate it if there was one service person working on an evening and not a handful, and uniform clothing would certainly be an aspect that would further improve the good overall picture. But these comments are made at a very high level.

Too much food with too little detail in the taste

Too much food with too little detail in the taste

Very tasty dishes. Staff very polite.

Everything is just right here. It is always a special event to be here.

Babysteinbutt schmeckte wie Kartoffelpuffer, Schweinelende war entweder nicht durchgebraten oder zu stark gebraten. Tapas waren gut

¡Tan relajante ambiente en el jardín! Con los cómodos calentadores a tu lado y la canción de los pájaros, fue tan agradable. Llegando un poco tarde para la cena a casi 20 y no teníamos reserva, nos quedamos muy contentos de tener una última mesa libre. Excelente servicio y cursos de pescado superiores y desierto muy agradable, fue un gran final para este viaje de negocios. Gracias! Haré una reserva, cuando esté aquí la próxima vez : )

Was a very pleasant evening. Highly recommended

Simply a beautiful ambience (inside and outside), fantastic menu with delicious tapas and dishes. And the friendly & attentive staff rounded off my first visit! I'm already looking forward to the next time I'm in Kassel.

Very modern restaurant. Everything lovingly designed with candles and decorations. The casual, friendly young staff made an all-round successful evening even more enjoyable. You really feel welcome at El Erni. Even though we stayed a little longer, our hosts remained friendly and nice. We would be happy to come back

Once again great food with great service Thank you for the great evening

The overall experience was excellent as always. Very tasty food, attentive but not intrusive service and a great atmosphere. I can only recommend it to anyone who values ​​quality food in a beautiful atmosphere.

Premium Qualität in allen Bereichen. Freundlichkeit, Ambiente, Servicequalität, Speisen Auswahl und Geschmack. Alles auf Top Niveau. Der Service war sehr freundlich aber und aufmerksam, das Ambiente ist warm ( echte Kerzen im Deckenleuchter) die Dekortion festlich und die Speisen sind ein wahrer Hochgenuss - auch optisch. Preis / Leistung ist hervorragend. In Kassel eines des Top 5 Restaurants.

Initial question: can I also give 6 stars? 🤩 It was perfect all around. Everything!! Starters, main courses and dessert - ingeniously taste-coordinated. A real treat. The atmosphere and the staff are very attentive and not intrusive. Wine tasting in advance was no problem - thank you very much!! Starters with us: Pimentos, bacon-wrapped dates and vitello tonato Main courses Salmon with tagliatelle and two types of sauce Loin baked with cheese, sauces and potatoes Redfish The prices are high and very in keeping with the taste experience. We will be back. Thank you for the lovely evening.

I was at El Erni for the first time last week. The service was always very nice and helpful with questions. The food was very nicely prepared and also tasted very good.

Great service and very tasty food.

The fish was too dry and not seasoned, the sauces were unspectacular, you could get the impression that "Spanish" cuisine could do without spices... the dessert was okay, [tried 3 different ones] but I have also eaten much better versions for half the price, the espresso was good, overall the food wasn't worth the price.

What can I say...🤔 Super friendly staff often stop by the table, which I personally think is very good 👍🏻 and the food is super delicious🤩 In short, everything is just right for us I can recommend El Erni 100%... Greetings Matthias

Super tasty, great ambience, nice service!

The food itself was well prepared, technically good, but rather average for the price/performance ratio. The starter variation for two people consisted of a lot of fried components and was somehow boring. The giant prawns were not peeled and there was no finger bowl or extra napkin to clean your fingers. Well overall ok but not enough for a second time.

Angenehmes Ambiente, sehr freundliche und kompetente Bedienung. Frische Galicische Miesmuschel ein Gedicht (in Kassel!;-) Fischsuppe mit butterweichen Kalamares wäre Hauptmahlzeit, Doradenfillets in Shrimps Sauce zart und saftig(!) Hauswein sehr gute Begleitung.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟... Parking situation a bit cramped

Super great food. Very nice service. Can only be recommended.

Excellent cuisine, thank you for the great evening. Big praise for the service.

Very good restaurant, the staff is very nice and friendly 😊. The food is just great and the menu offers a wide selection for everyone. I can only recommend.

Das seit Jahren überbewertetste Restaurant Kassels! Im Abstand von 2-3 Jahren gebe ich dem Restaurant immer mal wieder eine Chance, aber leider ist die Qualität gleichbleibend schlecht. Fisch und Fleisch sind immer trocken, weil sie in heißem Öl gebraten sind. Die Ailo schmeckt seit jeher sauer und fade. Patatas oder die frittierten Sardellen immer viel zu lange frittiert. Das Ambiente ist eigentlich auch nur im Sommer auf der Terrasse ansprechend. War bisher nach keinem Besuch zufrieden mit der Qualität und dem Geschmack. Wenn man das ins Verhältnis zum Preis setzt, ist es eine Frechheit, was dort geboten wird.

I'm only there rarely (1-2 times a year). But it is always a highlight for me, including the company. Nice service and great food. I'm always happy when I can be there

It was MEGA again as always. Thank you dear team for a lovely evening.

We were here for the second time. Sensationally good. The starter aioli the main course grill plate the dessert crema catalana. Great service, super organized and very accommodating, the food was just great 👍

We were there repeatedly with a small group. I have to say, the service was exceptionally good. A young lady who served us was absolutely professional, very friendly and accommodating. People are happy to order there. I'm happy for the owner to have such staff. The food is high quality and all the dishes we ordered were very good. I can only recommend everything without reservation and look forward to a lovely evening in this restaurant when I'm in Kassel again. I recommend making a reservation, otherwise it will be difficult.

Delicious food and great service. Large wine selection. Very cozy terrace. Reserve in advance. Highly Recommended.

Wir konnten den Hype um dieses Restaurant nicht verstehen: absolut abseitige Menüs, die Hottseidank nichts mit Spanien zu tun haben und handwerkliches Desaster. Lamm trocken, Fleisch trocken und Lachs - richtig, völlig fratze gebraten / frittiert? Eigentlich war irgendwie alles frittiert - von den Hauptspeisen bis Beilagen, das Aioli war richtig schlecht. Dafür gab es völlig abseitige Menüs wie Putenschnitzel mit Käse überbacken und Soße. Völlig irre. Wir glauben, dass dieses Restaurant für Kassel bestimmt funktioniert - in dieser Stadt kann man alles servieren und trotzdem erfolgreich sein. Selbst mit Leitungswasser für 6 EUR

An extraordinary culinary experience from the first bite to the last sip with cozy ambiance and attentive service. Highly recommend the Spanish drinks and the fresh seafood. Thanks for bringing a slice of Spain to our tables.

After a long time (it was about 2 years ago), the three of us met here again for dinner. - Ambience as beautiful as I remembered - Staff friendly and attentive - Food very tasty Come back more often now :)

Wir sind von Anfang an Stammgäste und können dieses Restaurant absolut weiter empfehlen: Top-Service, sehr schönes, geschmackvolles Ambiente und tolles Essen! Was will man mehr?
