Gaststätte Zum Ast in Markranstädt

The food was great and the prices are justified for the quality

We had dinner here today with our Rotlicht e.V. trade union association and we have to say it was excellent. The staff is trained to answer your own questions. The portions are larger as stated. Even an additional sign would be put up for us. Drinks were pleasantly cold and the decoration was in early style. We were allowed to park our porn SUVs in the yard free of charge and use the staff entrance because of our perfume and the girls in makeup. Prices OK as cash is required here. DJ responded to requests. Thanks for everything, see you next time. Your union federation. Your Kurt Krömer In December 20% off the annual membership

Service quick and friendly, a bit too intrusive. Croquettes and fries too dark. Portion of meat ok, fries and vegetables too much.

Very plentiful food. Thanks again to the kitchen. It was very tasty. Good beer selection. And excellent service. We felt very comfortable. Thank you very much.

We (my friend and I) have eaten here several times now. The service is very accommodating and regularly asks whether we are OK or missing something. The portions are also very generous, especially for the Astschnitzel or Astboulette. Just one small point of criticism: please put more sauce on the plate 😄😄 my friend had the branch schnitzel and I had the boulette, 4 drinks, dessert and 2 shots for 73 euros, very reasonable and super tasty! 🙏 We would love to come back 😊

Very pretty little garden restaurant with a cozy atmosphere. The “Astschnitzel” was mega and unbeatable for this price. It's a shame we couldn't test the beer garden due to the weather...

Such a mega schnitzel and despite being hungry I couldn't finish it....tasty and the service was great....I'd love to come back.....

Giant schnitzel okay. But the taste was so-so. Price okay too.

Today we had dinner here with our swingers and sauna club and it was fantastic. It was super tasty and... Spot cheap! The fish in particular was delicious and edible; for us it often varies depending on the age group of the guests. We were even able to gain a new club member! S. Will take over the live buffet with his many years of gastronomy experience. Result: Really great shop. Our next general meeting --> definitely here again. Best regards, your Ulli.

We chose the classic Ast Schnitzel And as always it was a pleasure and a lot to eat for a small price

We have been here for many years and what can I say? 😅 We were not disappointed. Staff nice and accommodating. Food, tip top. We'll be back. Keep it up.

A very nice restaurant in the garden restaurant Lock 👍

Good home cooking, tasteful, very plentiful. Great service, would love to come back

The food is plentiful. But the fried potatoes are lukewarm, the fries are weak and too salty. The ragout was also better and more.

It used to be better, but the food still tastes good.

I was traveling from Karlsbad via Leipzig via Munich and friends from Markranstädt recommended that I stop here to satisfy my hunger. I had the schnitzel plate. My goodness, are you crazy!? The thing was huge. Plus the cauliflower. 😄 I feel the need to be able to enjoy you again as quickly as possible.

Absolute tip for people who are very hungry. There is nothing wrong with the food and given the quantity, the price/performance is unbeatable. Very nice and friendly staff. You have to make minimal compromises with the rooms, but that doesn't help. We really enjoy being here.

Great restaurant would go again and again, great food, huge portions and a good price

Very nice restaurant, super nice service and very good, plentiful food, especially the schnitzels!

Very large portions and very tasty. Can only be recommended

Cauliflower was gray, schnitzel was disgusting and service was unfriendly I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone!

We recently celebrated our wedding in the hall. It was just great. The employees were super friendly and always asked us before they did anything. The food was again incredibly tasty. 🤤 I would always celebrate my wedding there or another big party. We and our guests felt really comfortable. Thank you very much for everything, dear Ast team

Ordered branch schnitzel with cauliflower and fries Was served Cauliflower plate with a schnitzel and a few fries Sorry never again

The staff is great, the boss is super friendly when he comes out of the kitchen. The food is delicious and I'm there often. Personally, I don't like the atmosphere that much, but if you like it rustic, you'll like it there. Personnel are always needed, if someone is looking for a pleasant part-time job with a really friendly team and a good boss, then you've come to the right place.

Home cooking. Price/performance top. If you like XXL portions in a beer garden atmosphere, like me, you should have been here before. Always my pleasure.

delicious. super friendly. huge portions. a really great garden pub!

We had a celebration and ordered a buffet for dinner, unfortunately that wasn't the delivery, we should have ordered Allachart instead. Things were better a few years ago.

Anyone who likes rustic, hearty cuisine in sizeable portions will quickly be satisfied here. Very nice service in a cozy garden restaurant atmosphere rounds off the picture. Recommended!

The restaurant, food and staff are highly recommended 🥰

You don't like to praise it too much. Otherwise you won't get a place. It was a very nice Saturday evening

Highly recommended for anyone who likes large portions of good food.

Were there for the first time and immediately loved it. An inconspicuous garden pub that offers everything a guest could want. The young lady from the service was also super nice and absolutely accommodating. The food was great and the price was absolutely reasonable for the portions. Anyone who goes home hungry has done something wrong.

It was delicious and plentiful as always. As a gardening club, we are extremely proud to have such a great restaurant. Thanks to Toias Seidel and his great team. Many greetings Dirk

If you like big schnitzels, “Zum Ast” is something special. Despite the huge portions, the quality of the food is very good. It's fun to eat home-style here.

We ate here about 15 years ago and were pleasantly surprised that the dishes are still so big and tasty. Whatever you can't manage is often packed up to take with you. Super young team but incredibly friendly and accommodating. A small problem is that the toilets are very small and difficult for older people to use.

Very friendly and funny service. Food was very quick and plentiful. We would love to come back to the beer garden. Unfortunately payment with Visa is not possible.

Beautiful garden restaurant! 👍😁

We went spontaneously after visiting a zoo (without reservation) there. Since they don't open again until around 5 p.m. on Sunday afternoon, we were probably lucky to get a table around 5:30 p.m. I chose this restaurant based on Google images of the food 😅 At first glance from the outside you think it's a sports bar. Inside it is also kept quite simple. There is also an outdoor area. Once you have wiped away the first impression, you will receive very nice and friendly service😀 Food was, there is no other way to put it, amazing😄 I had already seen the cauliflower in pictures, but when we were on the way to our table, the cauliflower at the next table literally jumped out at us, it was so big. Covered with an even more gigantic schnitzel😅 The schnitzel with tomato & mozzarella, however, was a normal portion. My meatball (meatball/beefsteak) was also huge, absolutely impossible to manage with fried potatoes and 4 fried eggs, at least for me! But everything was super delicious and the Google images I looked for are absolutely true 🥰 So if you complain in most restaurants that the portions are too small, I can only recommend “Gaststätte Zum Ast” is your destination 🤗 Price performance more than fair. Finally, a big compliment to our waiter. Despite the lack of staff, he still gave us a table. And despite the stress, always friendly and helpful. Greetings to the kitchen team "keep it up" your food is absolutely delicious. Haven't eaten so well in a long time. ❤❤❤🤗 THANKS

It was super tasty again, as always. Bye until next time.

Very very large portions when eating, but tastes like mother's

We had been in the area for a long time and had a look. We weren't disappointed, just as tasty as before and even the branch boulette and the branch schnitzel 😁👍simply a classic. We also ordered a warm/cold buffet - there was really nothing to complain about - all the extras were taken into account and all of our guests praised the food. You can't want more. We will definitely come back and order again.

nice atmosphere with very friendly service and equally delicious food Gladly again

The food was super tasty, I had the Ast Schnitzel and I almost made it 😀 All in all, a very nice evening. I would love to come back again

Very tasty and mega portions for a good price. Always my pleasure!!!

Eat good. Very large portion. It's calmed down. Very nice service. Was a great evening.

Great food, great service... unfortunately we have to drive 2 hours... but we'll be back! P.S. The salad was super fresh and a great dressing.

Was there on the weekend. I'm always impressed by the nice people there, the cuisine is nothing extraordinary, but still very good home cooking. For 4 people with drinks 85 euros very inexpensive given the portions. I like being there, unfortunately far too rarely. With these nice conditions, every other restaurant can learn a thing or two. There is no overreaching, there is always someone there if something is needed, even if the house is full, always a smile, always friendly, worth every penny of tip. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Went to the restaurant for a family dinner on Sunday, what can I say it was a lovely evening. Our bellies were “FAT” We had to have a lot of things packed up because it was very plentiful and delicious!!! 🙏🏻👌🏻We would love to come back.

Very tasty, plentiful and quick. I can only recommend trying it out yourself.

It is very unfortunate that everything is off the map from 2020 or Corona times are. But the branch schnitzel is well put together and delicious. Only the map isn't on it new status.

Beautifully decorated restaurant, delicious food and friendly service. We 4 girls had a lovely evening and would love to come back 🙋🏼‍♀️

The dishes taste really good! Recommended! The schnitzel is a good size and the side dishes were well seasoned. The salad was delicious! The ambience is kept simple, which gives the restaurant a certain charm. Only the tree trunk in front of the restaurant could be removed. You can't see him. :( Bye bye oil pan. Otherwise, really a nice, cozy location! The service is very friendly and the food comes quickly! I'd be happy to come back.

We were at "Zum Ast" for the first time today and were very impressed, especially by the friendly, courteous service, friendly, polite and correct, an A+ for us....now to eat....very tasty, plentiful and the price was completely ok.. ...we would be happy to come back to try the other dishes...thank you for the lovely evening...table reservation via Voit

A small restaurant with great cuisine, huge portions and service staff that leaves nothing to be desired!! Always happy!!

On Sunday we were here again for a long time in this nice restaurant (pre-booked, of course). As always, there was delicious, down-to-earth food. Even though we come from near Grimma, the journey is definitely worth it. Thanks. We'd love to come back!

Friendly service, great food, very happy to come again and highly recommended.

Spontan hier gewesen: gut- bürgerliches und sehr sättigendes (!!) Essen 😀

Richtig gute Hausmann's Kost . Schnitzel mit Pilzen und Kroketten , sehr lecker , knusprig und gute Portion zum satt werden.

Leckeres deutsches Essen in urigem Ambiente. Mahlzeiten sind üppig und reichen teilweise noch für den nächsten Tag. Immer wieder zu empfehlen wenn man absoluter Fleischesser ist.

Das Essen ist einfach nur gigantisch, und das nicht "nur" vom Geschmack her. Es ist immer wieder amüsant, Gäste zu beobachten, die das erste Mal ein Astschnitzel bekommen. Das Personal war wie immer sehr nett. Wir gehen immer wieder gern im Ast essen.

Essen war sehr lecker und preislich i.O. , Service war in Ordnung, aber kam nicht so oft um Getränkebestellungen aufzunehmen, waren aber auch nur zu 2. für mehrere Weihnachtsfeiern. Ambiente ist in die Jahre gekommen, könnte mal modernisiert werden. Toiletten sind in einem sehr alten Zustand.

Super leckeres Essen für einen akzeptablen Preis in netter Umgebung und super netter Bedienung 😊

Seit vier Jahren das erstemal wieder dort gewesen, viele sagen es sei nicht mehr so gut wie früher, ich muss sagen, wir waren Weihnachten dort essen, Bedienung schnell, Essen sehr heiss und auch lecker gemacht. Ich freue mich, nicht auf andere gehört zu haben und mir selbst ein Bild gemacht zu haben. Portionsgröße wie immer riesig. Es war lecker gemacht, das war Handwerk dahinter und nicht nur mal schnell was aufgewärmt.Ein Stern für das Ambiente fehlt in meiner Bewertung, aber dies wäre sonst unfair anderen Gastronomen gegenüber.

Essen verdammt lecker, verdammt viel....kleine Karte, aber für alle etwas dabei. Preise völlig in Ordnung. Service super und natürlich kann man die Reste mitnehmen.

Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend.

Super zufrieden Der Service ist sehr gut, schnelle und freundliche Bedienung Die Essensportionen sehr reichlich, kann man mit gutem Gewissen weiterempfehlen Wünsche dem Team alles Gute, macht weiter so

Sehr freundliches Personal, leckeres Essen. Ambiente etwas wie in einer Bahnhofshalle. Aber alles in allem ist es sehr schön gemacht. Vielen Dank.

Über geschmack lässt sich ja streiten, von daher war es für mich lecker. ABER auch mal ein wort zum Service bzw. zur Bedienung, denn diese ist hier wirklich Topp. Freundlich, humorvoll und nicht zu aufdringlich aufmerksam....könnten andere Lokalitäten eine scheibe von abschneiden.

Leider konnte das Essen ( Rostbrätl mit Bratkartoffeln ) nicht so überzeugen. Die Portionen waren zu groß, und deshalb wohl teuer. Es war jedoch möglich, die Reste mitzunehmen. Vielleicht sollte die Größe und der Preis der Portionen dem Bedarf angepasst werden können. Die Bratkartoffeln waren frittiert,ich denke, sie sollten in einer Gaststätte frisch gemacht sein. Hinweis an Brillenträger, bitte bringt diese mit, da die Schrift in der Speisekarte doch recht klein ist.

Das Essen ist Phantastisch. Was zuviel ist kann man mitnehmen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und das Essen ist super fix auf dem Tisch. Bitte vorher anrufen ob ein Tisch frei ist. Wir hatten Glück als wir spontan dort waren. Aber um nicht enttäuscht zu werden Reserviert bitte. Es lohnt sich dort zu Essen.

Sehr schönes Lokal, super Service, gerne wieder

Dort gibt es schmackhaftes Essen zum guten Preis.

Sehr lecker und große Portionen.

Sehr leckeres Essen in einer urigen Gaststätten mit sehr netten Mitarbeitern.

Super Gaststätte ebenso der Service

Sehr nettes Personal und freundliche Bedienung. Essen war sehr lecker.

Unser Essen war ok, Personal wirklich super nett. Ist halt alles sehr Fritteusen lastig. Sehr große Portionen

Super lecker 😋 und sehr freundlich wir kommen wieder

Super lecker und Personal super nett immer wieder gern

Super schneller, mega freundlicher Service. Die Portionen sind riesig und die Preise mehr als angemessen. Deutsche Hausmannskost in einem gemütlichen Gartenlokal mit Köchen und Kellnern die ihren Job noch lieben. Danke für den schönen Abend...

Der "Ast" ist nicht umsonst eine überregionale Legende, und "groß wie ein Astschnitzel" hat sich im Laufe der Jahre geradezu als Redewendung etabliert. Ich hatte das Vergnügen, diesem Lokal mal wieder einen Besuch abzustatten und war nicht enttäuscht - das Wildgulasch mit Waldpilzen war hervorragend. Nur die recht hohen Preise haben mich etwas überrascht; sie sind aber angesichts der Portionsgröße durchaus berechtigt. Entgegen der Info auf der Webseite kann man übrigens auch mit Karte zahlen. Für mich ist das ein zunehmend wichtiges Bewertungskriterium. Noch kurz zum Ambiente: Es ist ein Gartenlokal mit traditioneller deutscher Küche, und genau das spiegelt sich auch in der Einrichtung wider. Sehr passend und liebevoll gestaltet. Komme gerne wieder!

Der Ast … ein Kult der überlebt und immer lebt . Der Service spitze … tolle Speisen … und meine Jugendherausforderung - das Astschnitzel - kann nun mit meinem fülligen Bauch und großen Hunger geschafft werden ! Weiter so … euer Fan :) Micha

Dort bekommt man für sein Geld ne Menge ..... zu viel, wie wir alle feststellen mussten....konnten am nächsten Tag nochmal alle satt werden 😁

Gutes Ambiente, immer volles Haus, wird schon seine Gründe haben, war sehr zufrieden, gerne wieder!

Mega leckeres Essen, top Personal sehr freundlich immer wieder gern wer auf große Portionen steht sollte unbedingt mal dort Essen gehen

Sehr schmackhaftes Essen-sehr große Portionen 😅- super freundliche Bedienung. Wir kommen wieder 👍🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️

Das Essen ist eine Wucht👍 , Preis Leistung stimmen hier, der Chef ist sehr freundlich und Wasser gab es für unsere Fellnase auch🍀wir empfehlen diese kleine Gaststätte auf jeden Fall. Leider ist sie nicht 7 Tage geöffnet , weil Personal fehlt. Also wer Interesse hat , meldet sich beim Chef 👍

Sehr freundliches Personal Das Essen ist hervorragend große Portionen Wir empfehlen die Gaststätte zum Ast weiter Wir freuen uns schon aufs nächste mal Lg Familie Dollmeier

Wahnsinn die Portionen und sehr lecker jederzeit wieder gute deutsche Küche ...
