ESPITAS GmbH & Co. KG Erfurt in Erfurt

We were here on Sunday for the lunch buffet. The atmosphere was pleasant, very authentic Mexican. The waitress's service was very good and friendly, and they even included a spontaneous birthday surprise. The biggest drawback, however, was the buffet. There were few meat dishes, the taste was mediocre, and many Mexican classics were missing. Despite the friendly service, I wouldn't go back.

I really enjoyed it. Friendly, quick service, and very tasty food. Highly recommended!

We were there for the buffet. The staff were very warmly welcomed, and the buffet offered a wide selection and was constantly refilled. Everything was delicious.

Great service and friendly staff. Waiter Sebastian deserves special mention. Simply brilliant! Small criticism: the ribs are too pale and undercooked.

Very nice service. Food is delicious.

We were there for brunch today for my daughter's birthday. We were warmly welcomed with a decorated table. Even though it was busy, the service staff took excellent care of us. The buffet was always well-stocked, and the drinks were brought very promptly. Thank you for the lovely morning and a big compliment to the staff for ensuring everything ran smoothly. We'd love to come back.

We were there on Saturday. There was a buffet. The food was delicious. The cocktails also received high praise from guests. The staff was very attentive and friendly. One small downside: the non-alcoholic wheat beer was warm. At 30 degrees Celsius outside, that's not very tasty. After a reminder, the second one was well chilled.

Great food and very friendly service

Extremely friendly and helpful staff. However, the iced tea in a carafe has been removed from the menu, and it tastes watered down. The drinks menu is generally expensive. The food wasn't the best, but it was good for €30. Overall, it's still worth a visit.

The food has declined significantly, and prices have naturally risen. It used to be "the place for ribs," but now it's at best a taco-worthy place. It's a shame, but that's the way things are. The staff was nice, though, at least a little ✌️

Very friendly staff and delicious food. We went for Sunday brunch. It wasn't crowded, but it's best to make a reservation in advance.

We ate with you again today as a small group. It was fantastic, with a great selection at the BBQ, something for everyone, and everything was super fresh. A special mention goes to one of your servers, Salma!!! Truly, I'm lost for words. Friendly, helpful, kind, accommodating... Watching the little princess at the next table and Salma fetching art supplies and interacting with her was simply heartwarming. I've rarely experienced such a great server.

Immer sehr lecker, einzigartige Atmosphäre!

“The food was okay—I've had better BBQ ribs, but the service was super friendly.”

It was a pleasure again. Great food and delicious drinks. And the waitress was sweet, too. 😁👍🏼

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great atmosphere, authentic taste, and super friendly service – highly recommended!

We went for the all-you-can-eat buffet and can recommend it. The selection is plentiful and the food tastes good. The staff is very friendly! I just find the price of just under €30 for the food, without drinks, a bit high. Otherwise, we were satisfied :)

We were actually really looking forward to the evening, as the restaurant looks very nice from the outside. Unfortunately, we had to wait over 45 minutes for our drinks, which only arrived after the food was served. The waitress barely showed up during that time and sent someone else to apologize. The kitchen also had to wait a long time to pick up the food (they rang the bell three times before someone finally came). When we wanted to pay, no one came, so we got up and looked for the waitress. We then caught her on her cell phone, looking unmotivated. After waiting a few more minutes for her to cash us, we finally paid. The food was quite good, but it didn't blow us away. The drinks (strawberry punch and homemade iced tea) were okay.

We came for dinner yesterday. After 45 minutes, the food arrived, and the drinks arrived even later, with an unbelievable excuse. No apology or compensation. The food sat at the counter for ages before the waiters finally brought it. Nevertheless, the food was still warm, good in itself, but nothing special. Due to the unfriendly service and the price, which we felt was unjustified, we won't be coming again. Even at McDonald's, where you got us an ice cream, the service was much faster and friendlier. If you don't want to work in the restaurant industry, you shouldn't go.

It's amazing here. The food and the atmosphere are truly amazing.

Thank you. It was truly lovely. What we particularly enjoyed was the closeness of the staff to the guests. We found a long conversation with the manager truly interesting and pleasant; he took his time. The waiters were all friendly and accommodating.

The all-you-can-eat buffet every Saturday is pretty awesome. Even for me, as a vegan, you can find a lot of great things there. The tacos, however, were a bit boring and quite expensive.

Although the food (and drinks!) are what counts in a restaurant, the outstanding service must first be mentioned – exemplary. The food was above average, beautifully seasoned, and truly delicious. The ambiance is pleasantly designed. The prices are very fair.

Very tasty food in a cozy atmosphere and friendly service

I simply love it. I prefer going there for the buffet. The price/performance ratio is top-notch. The staff are all friendly, and the manager also has a smile on his face every time you visit, so you feel truly welcome.

Great with kids! Very friendly and helpful staff!

We're in Erfurt for a few days. We decided at short notice to come on a Wednesday evening without a reservation—no problem. Very delicious food. Very tasty cocktails. Friendly service, very pleasant atmosphere.

The food was okay and the atmosphere was nice. However, we waited 1.5 hours for the food...that's just too long.

A very nice ambiance, excellent and friendly service, and the food is also delicious. There's something for every taste. From spicy dips and various main courses to a plentiful selection of desserts. We tried the Sunday brunch and will definitely be back.

I highly recommend this restaurant. We went there for the buffet and it was really good. The food was always fresh, and the tacos were simply delicious. I would have loved to have some, but unfortunately, more people wanted tacos. The sauces were really good. I was also completely satisfied with the drinks.

We were here on a Saturday evening. The buffet was fantastic and varied. There was something for every taste, whether vegetarian or meat-eater. They even had desserts. The staff was very friendly and helpful. A recommendation for those who like to drop in: make a reservation in advance, as it's very busy and popular. I highly recommend this place.

We had a wonderful evening. The food was absolutely delicious. We'll definitely be back.

I highly recommend going here. Very friendly staff, a great atmosphere, and delicious food.

A very nice restaurant with delicious food and drinks. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. It's worth a visit.

It has a very American feel, with chipotle sauces and waitresses greeting you by name. The food is mediocre. The atmosphere is a bit like a restaurant at an amusement park. It's only easily accessible by car.

I thought the house and the decor were very nice, but the food didn't agree with me, and there was no variety or love. And for the price, I wouldn't recommend it.

Delicious. First time here, will be back.

We've been here several times now and the service is friendly and attentive. For a while the food at the buffet wasn't that good but we tried it again today and have to say it tastes really good again.

We made a reservation and ate à la carte. Please adjust the online menu. It was difficult to read. We then accessed photos of guests.

The food is excellent, a bit expensive but worth the quality. The atmosphere is cozy, and the service is quick and friendly.

The brunch was very varied, but unfortunately also very expensive. It's a shame, otherwise it was good.

The food is hit or miss. It's either super good or gives you stomach cramps for days. The ambiance is unbeatable. Service is also good.

Can only be recommended. Friendly staff, very good food and good ambience

Yes, if you like food from other cultures, this is the right place for you

I can highly recommend it. Buffet is great, very good selection. However, I would recommend reserving a table in advance.

It was very tasty. I can definitely recommend it, but something could be done about the cleanliness. Still happy again.

Really Mexican food made with different flavors. We had a platter for two with many variations. Excellent! Of course with a bag for home... Reasonable value for money. Happy, competent employees. It was just fun! Gladly again! Reservation makes sense.

Food was very tasty. The portions a bit too big. Service was good. Prices are just okay. Because of the high open space it is incredibly noisy (e.g. when the coffee machine is on. Otherwise everything is good. We'll be happy to come back.

Everything was very good, highly recommended.

Delicious food and a good beer punch 👍 Service is top notch

We were there yesterday with friends. We were greeted very politely and warmly with the information that there was a buffet today (we didn't know). The atmosphere is really very nice 👍 The staff nice and careful. But the absolute highlight was the food... really tasty... very well seasoned. The meat dishes are incredibly tender. The chili was very spicy 🌶️ but totally delicious 😋 Lots of choice of side dishes. My absolute favorite was the cheese bread 😋😋😋🧀 There was everything your heart could desire. We were sooooo full and left very satisfied. We'd love to come back. I think the idea with the postcards is great!!!

The ambience was great and the staff was very friendly. Cleanliness also deserves commendable mention. The starter was great. The main course was tasty, although there could have been a bit more meat in the tacos. I blame it on the fact that today was Tacos Day and that 50%!!! cost less. Unfortunately, from our point of view, the meat was really neglected. Unfortunately it wasn't perfect for us. What the staff would have liked to point out was that it would be better to order a few more dips. But that's complaining at a high level. Otherwise everything was good and we will definitely come back.

The food was good and the service today was very friendly, attentive and quick. An increase of 100% Thanks for the nice evening.

Highly recommended, the atmosphere is good, the portions are plentiful and the price is fair. The food tasted really good, we'll definitely be back

Very long waiting times, unfortunately the food wasn't tasty

Delivery service via eats is not recommended! The nachos were soft and not edible when cold...salad was not nicely prepared. Enchiladas con pollo were tasty but quite overpriced at €20. Pollo fritto was ok. also the price. If I go to eat with you and everything is great, I will of course change my rating!

Average food. Price/performance doesn't match. Uninterested staff. Won't be coming back.

We ate here for the first time and would love to come back. The food is delicious and plentiful, and the service is excellent. We'd love to come back.

Very friendly staff, delicious food. We'd love to come back. 😊

I highly recommend it. For a relaxed get-together with friends. The food is great. The drinks are delicious. I'd be happy to go back.

This was our first time at a Mexican buffet restaurant and we really enjoyed it. A large selection of delicious food, attentive and friendly service and a nice ambience. Gladly again.

We regularly go to Espitas for brunch and always find it great. The dishes are changed regularly.

Evening buffet with a decent selection Extensive drinks menu Friendly, fast staff Overall a very nice evening

The best nachos in town! Always very courteous and friendly service, the tacos are simply delicious!

I had acute diarrhea from the food, so I'll refrain from eating it in the future

Had dinner there today, March 1, 2025, around 12:45 p.m. I ordered the BURRITO BOWL "BBQ RIBS" = fried and grilled ribs tossed in BBQ sauce, onions and mild peppers. Underneath the description of the burrrito it said: = Ours Burrito bowls are served with rice = For someone who can't read the map properly anyway. Everything was a bit small and very colorful, the writing wasn't good, it was hard to see that there was anything else there. Anyway, the dish came with rice and not burritos. The waiter Sebastian asked me again "with rice", but I thought it was included in the burritos All in all, I didn't particularly like it. (It's a matter of taste) When I asked him about it again, he pointed it out to me on the menu. No matter, as a small compensation I got a free espresso.

There was a tasty and rich buffet. Gladly again at any time.

A very good restaurant. We attended the buffet to experience various Mexican dishes. As a meat fan, I really enjoyed it, and I told the chefs that you could watch them prepare it.

Everything was super tasty and everyone was friendly!!!

Very 😋 tasty. Nice service. Appropriate ambience. It will now close at 10 p.m. It's a shame, Erfurt, the state capital

It wasn't the worst Mexican restaurant but if you are vegetarian, there is really not much choice - if any. They offer a lot of vegan dishes with some oil based spread instead of cheese. I asked for the real cheese and got some bits of it. Could be greatly improved that is for sure and kind of pricey too. Not coming back here...

You can enjoy cocktails very well there, whether inside or outside. Food was okay, my crispy tacos weren't that crispy and it didn't really suit my taste, but tastes are different, unfortunately I found it a bit expensive 3 tacos €19.90. We reserved a table in advance, it's easy via the website. We'd love to come back.

Great service, Isa guided us through the evening really well. The grill buffet was delicious. Espitas in Erfurt highly recommended!

Very friendly staff who warmly welcomed and served you The food wasn't bad either But if you're there on an evening where there's no all-you-can-eat buffet, it's definitely very good

Extremely friendly staff, they also speak English and that helps for tourists, the food is extremely delicious, also the coffee and the drinks, I recommend everything on the menu because everything is cooked absolutely delicious.

Had a spontaneous meal there last night. The staff welcomed us in a friendly manner. We ate a buffet there and it was my first time eating something like that and eating a buffet was my first experience and I have to say it was super, super tasty. There was a lot of choice where everyone could find what they were looking for. The price was also right for this delicious meal. Maybe a little tip from my side is to have chairs ready for smaller children. Unfortunately, my niece saw it far too deeply and quickly lost interest in eating, which is unfortunately a shame. But otherwise everything was great.

The restaurant is very beautiful on the outside and inside, the customer service is excellent, the food 10 out of 10

We went to the evening BBQ buffet. Booking a table is an advantage! There was a wide selection of food and dessert. The service was very friendly.

Highly recommended, but definitely make a reservation. We were invited to the buffet meal. There was always plenty of everything, and if something was needed, it would all be refilled. In terms of taste, everything I was able to try was very tasty. It is also very comfortably furnished. We'll definitely be back.

I went there for brunch with the family; The staff in advance is very friendly and personable, and above all motivated. The atmosphere seemed quite comfortable to me, everyone felt comfortable and the food was good too. No complaints at all, everything was prepared perfectly and was clearly presented at brunch. Recommended for some people out there :).

Every detail was amazing: food, drinks, atmosphere and service! Definitely worth every cent.

Un excelente lugar con trabajadores muy educados, gran ambiente que crea fácilmente la sensación de México en vacaciones (como mucha gente quiere imaginar) y comida fantástica y sabrosa con deliciosas bebidas. El momento en el que quieres elegir y probar todo desde el menú. El mejor lugar para ir con una pareja / amigos / familia.

Wonderful place to briefly enjoy the Mexican flair, from the ambience accompanied by very pleasant music, to the super friendly service, to the delicious food! We spontaneously went to the buffet on Saturday evening at 7 p.m. and got a place for three people without any problems. Larger groups should reserve. The selection is varied, including plenty of vegetarian options. The price of around €27 for the buffet is justified. Personal service, all the employees we came into contact with were very courteous and in a good mood despite the full house. Thank you! :-)

A very chic restaurant with really tasty food, the service was also very good.

We had a great evening and great service thanks to Isa. She accompanied us very well throughout the evening and was super nice! Thank you very much for that, dear Isa!

The service was excellent, quick, friendly and unobtrusive. Big praise. The buffet was very good, there was a wide selection for every taste, including vegetarian.

We had a lovely evening there yesterday. The food was very good, but for me personally it was a little under-spiced. But since we were there for the buffet, that makes sense since not everyone likes spicy food. I would like to eat there again à la carte. The staff was great! Thank you! Note: For people who are not good on foot, it is a good idea to ask when making a reservation whether there is a table available downstairs because the restaurant is on two levels. And also important, you first have to go up a flight of stairs to get into the restaurant.

The food was very bad and we were very disappointed. Service was friendly and polite. The cleanliness needs improvement.

If you would like Mexican food, this is the place for you. Children are also welcome here. The restaurant offers a games corner.

Have a Mexican breakfast in Erfurt? Arriba! Arriba! There's a great mix at the buffet: Mexican specialties and classic delicacies. We went there twice with the family: it was always delicious! A very good service, very family friendly. The ESPITAS is also coolly decorated. Very funny and creative. This is a real eye-catcher for the Erfurt/Thuringia region! We'd love to come back.

Good restaurant with an appealing atmosphere. Food was great. Price performance is very good. 10 wings, corn on the cob, potato wedges and 0.5l beer for €28.50. Couldn't be any better. Very nice staff.

Great food, nice service and overall a nice restaurant

The ambience in the restaurant was very harmonious and definitely contributed to the flair and mood. The food was very good, there were a lot of vegan options that were also very well presented and recognizable. But what I have to praise most is the service, the service was first class and customer oriented. Very well done!

The food was good, the service was great and the ambience is great 5 stars in all categories

We had dinner with you today (January 3rd, 2025) and really had a great evening. The buffet was super tasty and very fresh. 😊 The staff was super friendly and very quick across the board. Isa served us… you have a great person on your team! We really enjoyed their service. See you again soon. Best regards.

We were there for our birthday with a great buffet. The service was fabulous, thanks go to Isa! She made sure that we were all more than satisfied!

It was delicious, even got a table without a reservation.

Super!!! A slightly different cuisine with a variety of offerings. Top keep it up

We were traveling in Erfurt and spontaneously decided on Espitas. Super good food, nice staff, great ambience. The staff was present but not intrusive. Even our 10 year old was thrilled. We'll definitely be back.

Wir waren sehr zufrieden, vor allem mit der Kellnerin ISA!!! Sie ist freundlich, lustig und aufmerksam. Sie hat uns den Aufenthalt sehr angenehm bereitet 😁😁😁😁😁
