Gaststätte Zur Grillschranke in Geilenkirchen

I've been to Carpaccio several times now and have only had positive experiences. The food is fantastic, the service is first-class, as is the ambiance. They cater to all special requests and go out of their way to ensure guests have a wonderful evening. Thank you so much!

At the Capitol "Bei Manni," you're always in good hands if you like a pub atmosphere combined with good (schnitzel) cuisine. The fries are always freshly prepared... including excellent fries... plus a changing draft beer... and all at very reasonable prices... the old-school atmosphere fits perfectly... everything just like it used to be... a real treat in these fast-paced times... A foosball table and even a bowling alley perfectly round out the rustic offerings... so: always happy to come back...🍟🍻👍

Okay. Thank you for your hospitality.

We went to the aforementioned restaurant for our Christmas party with about 15 people. We started at 6 pm, and the appetizer platter arrived promptly. This was the last positive impression of the evening, as the main courses didn't arrive until around 9 pm. The owner/chef started lecturing us as soon as we ordered our main courses, claiming the Wiener Schnitzel wasn't actually called Wiener Schnitzel, but "Tender Temptation," even though the name was clearly labeled Wiener Schnitzel. It's one thing to politely repeat the name of a dish instead of snapping at a paying customer. One pasta dish was completely forgotten, which can happen, and it arrived five minutes later. So far, so good. However, the pasta was overcooked (not quite tender), the fries were rock hard, and I've never seen so much fruit (peach, pear, honeydew melon, and grapes) in a salad with honey-mustard dressing. ... We had to request our drinks more than once from the ground floor (we were seated on the first floor). The woman who served us honestly seemed like she'd rather be anywhere else. No smiles, no thought to take away the empty glasses in exchange for the full ones, no exchange of water bottles at the table, etc. The real kicker of the evening, however, was the fact that there was a €15 deposit for taking away leftover food. This alone deterred six out of seven of us from taking our food home. So much for sustainability. When we asked for some napkins, the owner replied, "No, he'd have to pay for them too." While the restaurant is already quite expensive, whether that's justified is another question. All in all, unbelievable. My first and last visit to this restaurant, whether for personal reasons or for a business trip.

We go there regularly. Unfortunately, the service is getting worse and worse—well, not really the service itself, but the owner's mood. You feel very unwelcome. Lately, they even kick you out around 10:30 p.m. with the words, "One last round." To be clear, we're customers and not sitting at a table all evening with a €30 bill. If you're no longer welcome in a restaurant at that time on a Saturday night, then they really need to rethink things. The quality of the food is excellent, but the owner's mood is ruining everything. It's a real shame.
