EssAtelier in Solingen

We had a wonderful long evening at the restaurant. The ambiance is very pleasant, the food delicious, and the service excellent. We would love to come back ❤️

Highly recommended! Top-notch restaurant, from the quality of the food to the service and ambiance.

So honestly, I absolutely recommend EssAtelier! 🎉 As soon as you walk in, you notice that this isn't just a place for food, but that everything is made with love. The ambiance is modern, yet incredibly cozy – you immediately feel welcome. And the staff? Simply amazing! 🙌 Friendly, attentive, without ever being intrusive. You can tell they're really passionate about their job. They explain the dishes with so much passion that you're immediately even more excited about the meal. Speaking of the food: every dish is a small work of art. You can taste that they use really good ingredients, and the combinations are not only creative but also perfectly harmonious. Everything just fits – from the look to the last bite. In short: If you value exceptional cuisine and want to feel like you're in really good company, EssAtelier is the place to be. I'll definitely be back – and more than once.

The service is really great and the food is also incredibly delicious.

Super delicious food! Incredibly friendly service!

Friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere and easy to reach from the center.

An absolutely fantastic restaurant! The food is not only incredibly delicious and freshly prepared, but also lovingly presented. The ambiance is inviting – cozy, stylish, and relaxed at the same time. I'd especially like to highlight the team: super friendly, attentive, and warm, making you feel immediately welcome. I would definitely be happy to come back – a definite recommendation!

It was our first time there and we'll definitely be back! Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. The food was fantastic, with the meat and fish cooked to perfection. Everything is freshly prepared! There's a lot of attention to detail in this restaurant. Highly recommended.

The food was very tasty. It's a Greek restaurant, but 80% of the food was Italian.

I can wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. I came from Essen to spend a lovely evening with my friends. They set a high standard for future restaurant trips. The service, food, and ambiance are unforgettable. Thank you very much.

Here's a suggestion for your Google review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "We came here for pizza and it was simply fantastic! The pizza was fresh, crispy, and super delicious—exactly what you'd expect. I'd especially like to highlight the service: everyone was very friendly and attentive, but a very special thank you goes to Angelika. She looked after us with so much heart and dedication that we felt completely at home. Absolutely recommended—we'll definitely be back!" Best regards The model and the goat cheese 😉

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Mediterranean Gem in the Heart of Solingen-Ohligs EssAtelier is one of those rare places where everything just feels right from the moment you step in. The cozy, stylish interior instantly makes you feel at home — warm lighting, beautiful details, and a welcoming vibe. The food is absolutely outstanding. Every dish is prepared with love and fresh ingredients. Their Mediterranean-inspired menu includes perfectly cooked steaks, tender lamb chops, fresh pasta, pizza, fish, and weekly specials that surprise and delight. You can really taste the quality in every bite! What makes the experience even more special is the incredibly friendly and professional service. The team — especially Angelika and Vasili — go above and beyond to make guests feel like family. Their hospitality is genuine and heartfelt. The atmosphere is both elegant and relaxed, with lovely art pieces and a cozy outdoor terrace. Whether you’re visiting for a romantic dinner, a family meal, or just a relaxed evening with friends, EssAtelier is always a fantastic choice. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates good food, warm service, and an inviting ambiance. Reservations are a good idea, especially on weekends — it’s that popular, and for good reason!

The ambiance is nice and the staff very friendly. Unfortunately, I didn't find the cheeseburger and fries particularly special.

I was passing through Solingen and was intrigued to see a restaurant with 5/5 ratings from hundreds of reviewers. Well, i can now confirm that these ratings are well deserved! We were greeted by the lady owner of the restaurant, who was extremely warm and friendly. We immediately felt like we were being welcomed into a family kitchen. We ordered the Pumpkin seed pesto bruschetta, Greek salad, Taglione Neri Mare deluxe, pizza Italia con carne, and panna cotta. All the ingredients used are so fresh and flavourful, and everything was cooked to perfection. They are also very generous with ingredients. The pasta was swimming with seafood, and the greek salad was a sizeable portion. Finally, the panna cotta had an excellent consistency, it wobbled the perfect amount and held its shape without falling apart. One touch I really liked was that in the bathrooms, they offered candies, a lint roller, and women's hygiene items. A small but incredibly thoughtful detail! A place not to be missed when in Solingen!

Simply excellent! Ambience, superb food, generous portions, everything perfectly seasoned! Outstanding service. A must-visit! It will definitely become our regular! Special atmosphere, sophisticated clientele, yet not pretentious. Highly recommended. Angelika and Georg

The staff gave us a wonderful evening. The food was delicious and there was more than enough. We were truly full and thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service. Thank you! (I didn't get a chance to take a photo of the main course because I was so hungry that the food was gone before I remembered to take a photo...)

My wife and I shared the "For Fish Lovers" dish and side dishes. The food was extremely delicious and the service excellent. I felt very comfortable and would gladly return.

The EssAtelier in Solingen is an absolute must! From the moment you walk in, the restaurant impresses with its tasteful decor, creating a cozy atmosphere. The food itself was a delight; everything was cooked/grilled to perfection and presented with love. All ingredients were fresh, local, and of high quality. The appetizer platter, with a large selection of antipasti, offered everything your heart could desire. The service staff, as well as the chef and manager, are friendly and accommodating, and cater to special requests. (And they're also available for a quick chat :D) In summary, the EssAtelier is the perfect place for a fantastic meal in a cozy atmosphere and good company.

Top-notch service and food! Highly recommended.

If you want to end the day on a positive note, this is the perfect place. A great menu, always great ideas on the daily menu, and Angelika always comes up with some exciting new twist to ensure that boredom never sets in.

I highly recommend it. Delicious food, a really nice owner, and excellent service.

The staff and workers are super friendly and polite, always up for a chat. The restrooms are super tidy, and there are even a few small items for your face and hands. The food is also delicious, and everything is homemade. I highly recommend this restaurant!

I was invited to EssAtelier and can wholeheartedly recommend it! After a friendly greeting from the hostess, who genuinely made me feel welcome, the ordered drinks and food arrived without long waits. The food was simply fantastic, as was the ambiance and service! We'll definitely be back and will recommend EssAtelier to our friends.

Everything was wonderful! Thank you very much!!

Friendly and delicious. A lovely spot in Solingen

We often come to visit the family and are always thrilled and go home happy. ☺️

I was there for a business lunch. Tiles' place, which you wouldn't expect in this 1980s shopping center. The atmosphere is really nice, the service is very friendly, and the food was delicious.

We stopped here spontaneously, and I can only agree with the other reviews. Great food, great atmosphere, great service. Highly recommended!!!!!

We visited this restaurant yesterday for a family celebration and were very pleasantly surprised. The food was truly delicious, plentiful, fresh, and prepared with love. We were particularly impressed by the warm hospitality of the restaurant owners. The atmosphere was very pleasant, and everything was clean and well-maintained. What we, as a family, particularly liked: The staff was very attentive – they regularly asked if everything was okay or if we needed anything else. The younger guests were also taken into consideration: There was special children's cutlery and dishes, which are particularly practical for smaller children. You could just tell that families are welcome here and that attention to detail is paid. We felt completely at home.

Everything was top-notch. Excellent food. Large portions. Attentive and friendly service.

SPECTACULAR The best fish I've eaten in a very long time, especially the octopus. The same goes for the service – super friendly, attentive, but not intrusive. Exactly what you'd expect.

Simply perfect! Comfortable seating, delicious food, super friendly staff, and delicious cocktails.

5 stars – A very special evening! We went to the EssAtelier for the first time on Saturday – and what can we say: it was just absolutely wonderful! As soon as you walked in, it felt like you were visiting good friends. This warm atmosphere, the sincere interest, the friendly smile of everyone - hospitality is truly lived here. You can feel the passion and love for being a host in every detail: from the warm welcome to the small, attentive questions at the table to the perfect timing between courses. And the food? A dream! Every course was a feast for the senses - sophisticated, lovingly prepared and full of taste. But what we took away was more than “just” fantastic food. It was a mood, a feeling of arrival, enjoyment and appreciation that we haven't experienced in a long time. Thank you for this special evening – we will definitely be back!

Great ambience, very good food (also for vegetarians and vegans!) and great service! Absolutely recommended! We'll be back!

The Estelier in Solingen is a real gem! From the first moment I felt incredibly comfortable - not only because of the stylish ambience and the fantastic cuisine, but above all because of the warmth of the owner. Their warm, harmonious charisma gave the entire visit a very special touch. You can immediately feel how much love and passion there is in this restaurant - both in the dishes and in the way we treat the guests. Every dish is prepared with great attention to detail - a real highlight in terms of taste and appearance. I was particularly impressed by the creative selection of dishes and the quality of the ingredients. I'll definitely be back - a real enrichment for the gastronomy scene in Solingen!

A restaurant run with an incredible amount of love and passion and you can feel it from the moment you enter the restaurant until you leave it! Here the guest is truly valued!💗

Everything was great! As much as the food, so is the service. The space is also very beautiful. Finally, the owners were very kind and made sure everything was perfect!!!!

We have rarely eaten cod as well as we did here. Fried to perfection. The asparagus, crisp and fresh. I'm not normally a fan of hollandaise - but it worked wonderfully here!!! Super nice service and nice atmosphere here! We will definitely come back!

The food was super good and the manager of the shop is just great! A very warm and friendly lady. The atmosphere in the store is also very pleasant. We'll definitely be back!

Beautifully prepared, good quality, and a varied menu. Friendly, attentive staff.

We had a very nice evening yesterday: the food was very tasty, the service was friendly, humorous and on the ball and the atmosphere was very nice. Many thanks to the whole team and we would be happy to come back at any time.

The EssAtelier is a real insider tip! We got a table spontaneously and were greeted by name right away – very friendly! We haven't had such a good meal in a long time. The steak was cooked to perfection and of outstanding quality. The service was excellent and very attentive. The restrooms were also very clean. The value for money is absolutely reasonable. We'll definitely be back!

We went to EssAtelier for a surprise dinner. It was incredibly great, I haven't experienced such empathetic and loving service in a long time. The food is excellent, the ambience is very tasteful. It wasn't the last time we were there. Absolute recommendation.

This great location is far too hidden. A gem of Solingen gastronomy. Very nice ambience, such attentive and friendly service, some competitors can learn a lot from this. And the food……mmmmmmhhh. I will come back!

Went there spontaneously for the first time today. Absolutely recommended!

We recently visited friends in Solingen and visited this restaurant. Pleasant and quiet atmosphere, friendly and polite staff. And the steaks there are simply incredible – my utmost respect to the chef! Absolutely recommended!

We ate at Essatelier for the first time today and were thrilled by the vegan selection, the service and the warmth with which we were served. We would love to come back and can highly recommend it!

I've never had such an amazing experience at a restaurant! The service is world class, the food is excellent and the atmosphere created by the service ladies is nicer than in your own living room. We are regular guests from now on 💚

Incredibly beautiful and cozy restaurant! Very friendly staff, an incredible atmosphere and the food is simply amazing! I definitely recommend you spend an evening there at least once - you definitely won't regret it and will come back again and again!

I was thrilled on the first visit and not disappointed on the second visit with high expectations😁 Great food, great service and a stylish ambience. We'll definitely be back!

Top! Thanks. Thank you that there are still restaurateurs with passion and quality standards. Easily hidden and found by chance... we'll be back! Fresh food, friendly service. Greeks with non-typical Greek food. Very considered, not everyday and tasteful. Four of us came here spontaneously and were very excited. At the latest when we sat together at the table on a first-name basis and were recognized as “newbies,” we knew we were in the right place. The food was above average fresh, prepared with ideas and love. Absolutely right in terms of price. Keep it up! We recommend you!

We were guests at the EssAtelier on Saturday evening. The reception was very friendly and you immediately felt at home. There was a family atmosphere. The service was nice and very attentive. The food was really tasty, everything is freshly prepared and of very good quality. The selection offers something for every taste. Thank you for a fun and lovely evening! We'll be back. Dani & Micha

In the EssAtelier you feel like you are with friends. Super warm boss, attentive service, great food, delicious cocktails. All in all highly recommended. Thumbs up

We were at the EssAtelier for the first time today. A calm, comfortable and inviting atmosphere! We felt very comfortable there and were warmly welcomed and accompanied throughout the evening. The dishes arrived at our table at the same time, freshly prepared, hot and beyond tasty. The portions are generous and beautifully designed. We'll definitely be back!!

Great food paired with a unique ambience. The family who own the restaurant have been running the restaurant for a few years now and are always friendly. Absolutely recommended.

We were very satisfied. Always my pleasure.

Great restaurant with a lot of heart! We're always happy to come back! Maria ♥️

A place to feel good. We will recommend you.

I don't normally write reviews, there's no other option here: A 10 out of 5 at least Been there for the first time and guaranteed to be our future place to spend an all-round perfect evening. It wasn't just our friends we were there with who made it perfect. From the ambience to the excellent food to the wonderful feeling that Angelika and her team gave us of being REALLY WELCOME!!! Came as a guest, left as a friend - that has rarely happened to us in our lives 🙏 authentic and endearing Thank you for this wonderful time, the perfect food and this special experience!!! See you very soon

We had a wonderful evening with nice friends in a great atmosphere. We would love to come back there

Delicious food, cozy atmosphere with attention to detail and friendly service

Thank you for the lovely evening and the particularly delicious food. The vegan burger was fantastic. The service is great, everyone is casually friendly and has a very pleasant atmosphere. We really loved it and will definitely come back. Absolute recommendation.

We spontaneously went to eat here and were unfortunately a little pressed for time. The staff was still super friendly and did everything they could to ensure that we were able to eat and enjoy not only the main meal but also the dessert promptly within our time frame. We will definitely come back and spend more time with us.

We felt wonderfully comfortable and really enjoyed the food. A real highlight!

Were there for the first time. Excellent food, very nice staff, great service!! Absolutely recommended!

Stylishly furnished restaurant. Thanks to the beautiful furnishings and the subtle background music, I immediately felt at home. Very attentive and friendly staff. Good selection of food. For me a highlight in Solingen. I'll definitely come back!

Where do I start😌 I was able to spend a very nice Monday evening here. Starting with the warm welcome at the door, to the beautiful ambience. Here you can quickly forget the stress of everyday life and immerse yourself in an oasis of well-being. You have pleasant conversations with the courteous young lady of the house. The food and drinks of course speak for themselves. Here you can clearly see the attention to detail. The service is friendly and on hand, but not intrusive. Even in the toilets you feel welcomed and welcomed. I will definitely come back.🥰

We always enjoy coming here. The service is super attentive and the food is varied. No matter what I've eaten so far - everything is delicious and freshly prepared. The next visit has already been scheduled.

We had a great evening as a couple, thanks to Angelika and the kitchen team.

Very, very good food and great service, would love to come back!

Unfortunately I only ate one dessert but the portion of tiramisu was incredibly tasty. The staff is very competent and professional. You just have fun when you eat here. Highest recommendation 👍🏽

Very tasty food, friendly, warm atmosphere, also unusual dishes, very attentive service, competent advice, also regarding allergies. Simply highly recommended ♥️

The EssAtelier in Solingen is an absolute highlight! The elegant and cozy ambience creates a wonderful atmosphere. The service was first class – warm, attentive and highly professional. The food was a pure taste explosion!! An all-round fantastic experience in which cuisine, service and atmosphere harmonize at the highest level. Absolute recommendation – we will definitely come back!

I invited the family here for my birthday. It was perfect all around and I would love to come back 🥰

The restaurant impresses with good service, great food and love of gastronomy. The dish “for fish lovers” was outstanding. I like to come to eat at any time because the cuisine is second to none. Thank you for building such a high-quality restaurant in Solingen :)

Very friendly environment and excellent service!!! Warm welcome and the menu simply amazing, I highly recommend it 💯

We are amazed, very warm atmosphere, delicious starter and very good service

Very warm and friendly boss and employees. Food great! Will definitely come back.

We definitely recommend the EssAtelier! We had a great evening and we all felt completely comfortable!

We were there yesterday for my friend's mother's birthday. There were five of us in total and we had a very successful evening. The service, the ambience, the food were great and the owner was also very nice. This will be our new favorite restaurant!

I have often heard about this restaurant from friends, it was often recommended to me, I took the plunge and traveled from Würzburg to Solingen to try it out, I was very positively surprised, the staff were all very friendly and understanding, the food pleased me Expectations exceeded, I can only recommend it from the bottom of my heart. We'll definitely be back Thanks so much! Khitam and Radhwan from Würzburg

The food was excellent, the waitress was great and the owners were great!

Congratulations on over 600 reviews. My special thanks to Vaseli for the delicious food and beautiful presentation. With friendship and neighborly greetings. Bernd

Very friendly team and very tasty food, everything was great 👍🏻

Very nice atmosphere. The owner creates an environment in which you feel very comfortable. The food was delicious and the portions were more than generous. We really enjoy going to the EssAtelier on a regular basis.

So I really have to say, you come in and you're immediately greeted by everyone!!!! Warmly welcomed by everyone! You feel right at home and totally comfortable. The service is really great - fast, attentive, nice! You rarely see it like that. We'll definitely be back 😍

It's a nice ambience, beautiful Christmas decorations, to feel good and for a moment you really felt Mediterranean :)

Super nice service, very attentive. Food delicious, delicious, something different. 👍😋

As always, a warm welcome and a delicious meal!

We were there for the first time today and certainly not the last time. Everything is just right here, it's very cozy, super friendly and very nice service, you feel really comfortable there and you're served as if you've been a regular guest for years! Everything is lovingly decorated, the atmosphere is very nice and the food is absolutely delicious, everything freshly prepared! We were more than satisfied. The restaurant is highly recommended and 5 stars are definitely not enough!

We had a wonderful evening in what we consider to be the best restaurant in the Rheinisch-Bergisches Kreis (and we've been to many)😃 The starters and the fish platter were amazing! Full marks for the food and an exceptionally nice boss! We recommend a visit to everyone!

It was a really nice evening, very tasty food, incredibly friendly and courteous service and a great ambience, we would love to come back

Went there yesterday with friends and had a delicious meal. There is a relaxed atmosphere and both the owner and the waitress are very nice.

Eating at Essatelier is like spending a cozy evening at a friend's house. You are warmly welcomed, a little chat every now and then loosens up the atmosphere and the food is excellent. Absolute recommendation ❤️

Ate there twice, super friendly staff 👍 Salmon perfectly prepared. If I could give more stars it would be 10. I'd love to come back and I'm a chef myself

This is the third time I've eaten there, it's simply delicious and you feel very welcome there.
