Gaststätte Am Hopfenberg in Leipzig

Stopped because I was hungry. The taste was terrible, I couldn't get it back.

Nice idea, but the quality of the food doesn't match the exorbitant prices. The staff is friendly and helpful. The ambiance inside is well-designed, but the outside feels rather cheap. This weekend, the "Wildpark Wiesn" is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. However, the staff are only just getting ready at 11 a.m. The restaurant opens at 11:30 a.m. as usual. So I'm wondering what happens after 10 a.m.? The climbing frame is already very weathered and, in our opinion, should be completely overhauled or replaced. There's a risk of injury in some places! All in all, very disappointing and not recommended.

Very friendly staff and delicious food, would gladly come again 🙃

I had reserved seats for today after the opera performance (by phone). When we got to the restaurant, it was closed, and we were told there were no reservations for tonight.

I've ordered from here often. I always found it worlds better than Safran (which is next door), both for the food and the service. But that's mainly because, in my opinion, Safran is THE worst Indian restaurant in Leipzig (and one of the worst I've tried anywhere in the world). The quality here is actually just average. Nothing is particularly good, and some dishes are rather bland or somehow disappointing. Good enough if you just fancy lamb with curry or something similar. Nothing more. I'm writing this review because I was very disappointed yesterday: The hot, deep-fried Keema Somosa was delivered in a Styrofoam container that doesn't meet DIN standards and is only permitted for cold food. As a result, the container partially melted from the heat, which was clearly noticeable in the taste of the Somosa. In other words, the food tasted like melted plastic, and we had to throw it away. Attached are some pictures as proof. Aside from the plastic packaging, the somosa tasted okay (though nothing special), but they were incredibly dry, with the meat constantly falling out. The matar paneer wasn't bad, and still better than Saffron's (whose sauces are ALWAYS very watery, quite bland, and far too sweet), but it was prepared rather carelessly, much like Saffron's. They'd crammed in far too many peas as a cheap filling, used far too little paneer, and the sauce tasted like they were aiming for the World Championship in Mediocrity. The rice, however, was good and cooked well. Therefore, 3 stars for the food, and 2 for the service because, even though they were relatively nice, IT'S COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE that a professional wouldn't realize and consider that Styrofoam and hot food = disaster. And because THEIR delivery driver (not from Lieferando) was rather unfriendly.
