Gecko-Torhaus in Oberhausen

Were there with several people for a St. Nicholas celebration. The restaurant is more of a pub, which is cozy and has plenty of parking. The service was a little overwhelmed, probably due to the number of people. But they tried hard. Now about the food. Some had aoli ​​with bread, which was probably really good. Others and I also had pizza, which was more of a souped-up ready-made pizza. And overpriced for that. I was full and I could eat it. However, if you mainly want to eat pizza, you should eat somewhere else. I can't say anything about the other dishes. What bothered me, however. I think it was the owner. He was standing at a bar table with some guests and some of them and himself were smoking. So inside the restaurant. Then he blatantly made out with a lady. He really wanted to do this, but none of us found it appropriate.

Once and never again. Pizza overpriced and the base was totally hard and burnt. Looked more like a pimped frozen margarita. The service staff was very friendly, but completely overwhelmed as she probably didn't receive any proper instructions. There is smoking in the pub, ashtrays for what. No, no

The ambience was great. Small cozy bar/pub. We were there with a good 20 people for the regulars' table. Service, disaster. Ordered non-alcoholic beer and the waitress put her nose in to smell whether it was non-alcoholic. Ordering food was very difficult. Serving wasn't any better. The pasta dishes are probably quite good. Definitely not the pizzas. Burnt in places, the ground very hard. Taste went so far. On my pizza there were 4 small slices of salami, for €1 + a few onion rings and for €2.50 + a few mushroom slices.

We were here with almost 50 people. Nice location in the context of an old mine. Great host, super friendly and attentive staff. In-house catering for birthdays (e.g. the spinach lasagne is great). Great tapas, pizza and other delicacies outside of closed groups. We always like to come.

Attentive, cool boss, cold drinks and cuisine on an old mine site. Great terrace with a view of the former winding tower.

A perfect host with great staff and good value for money! Very nice and cozy location. I celebrated my birthday there as part of a private party. By the way, there are a lot of parking options. Thank you very much and gladly again! 😊

It seems a bit chaotic inside. But the staff is friendly and has a sense of humor. Our food (pizza with spinach and feta, currywurst fries and Capriccosa salad) was very tasty. It's not exactly cheap, but it just fits into the price structure in mid-2024.

Original and something special. Quite interesting.

Great meeting place for scooter friends, great atmosphere.

Small but very nice. Just take a look. Only recommended

Ambience is a problem on the mostly asphalted area, but the beach area makes up for it. Otherwise a wonderful piece of Ruhrpott next to the winding tower. Nice crowd and, as always, good food and fresh Stauder. We always enjoy coming back, even if far too rarely.

Cozy, rustic and quaint restaurant. Food was great.

Food is not good at all. Steak tastes like the sole of a shoe and the pizza couldn't be cut despite using a steak knife. The dough was so hard. We had hoped for more. Not worth a visit

A super nice, cozy restaurant with really, really good food and really great, friendly sheff and chef were there today with the whole family and can really be recommended. Keep it up, we'll be happy to come back.

Good atmosphere....nice place...just had a drink....

Cool atmosphere, pleasant service and good food for a completely acceptable price. Plus a glass of Lugana...what more could I want?

We were in the “Gecko” for the first time a few days ago. A very nice location in a very old building. We ate pasta and pizza there and were very satisfied. Everything was delicious and also reasonably priced. It was a lovely evening in a great atmosphere. We will definitely come back again.

We visited the Gecko for the first time on Thursday from Düsseldorf. The service was so friendly and attentive that you unfortunately rarely experience it in restaurants these days. The location is beautifully furnished in a cozy atmosphere and is a mixture of restaurant, bistro and bar. The owner cooks himself in an open kitchen with fresh ingredients and it tasted so delicious. From the starter to the main course, including wine recommendations and drinks, everything came together. The boss also came to the table personally and greeted his guests. An absolutely successful evening in all areas. Sasha K.

Excellent. A friend hosted a party here and the staff were amazing!

Were there for the first time on Friday. The voucher book inspired us to visit this restaurant. We were completely thrilled. Nice service, great relaxed boss, food freshly prepared and really very tasty! Also a great cozy atmosphere. We felt very comfortable. We will definitely come back! Thank you for this great evening.

Went to the Gecko Torhaus for the first time last night and were very positively surprised, super nice people, service was great and the food was very good 🤤 will definitely pay the Gecko Torhaus a visit again.

Got married there on Saturday, great atmosphere, good food, everyone was very nice and helpful

The restaurant does justice to the location in which it is located. Friendly owner who knows how to serve his guests well. Fair price-performance ratio.

The kitchen was closed early and there were no cold dishes or sandwiches. The drinks are not provided to the guest with the emblem. Overall the visit was disappointing, maybe it will be better next time. August 2023

We celebrated our wedding there & had the greatest celebration & hottest party! Food, location & staff top.. we were very satisfied

Schöne location und herzliche Gastgeber, für ein Bier oder einen kleinen Snack gut, darum die 3 Sterne. Das Essen war leider richtig schlecht. Die Pizza hatte einen labrigen Teig, der nur marginal besser als der einer Tiefkühlpizza war und die Tappas waren ebenfalls nicht der Rede wert.

Tolle Atmosphäre, meeegaaa leckere steinofen Pizza 🍕 die anderen Gerichte der anderen Gäste sahen auch sehr schmackhaft aus 😄

Waren heute zu viert da mit dem Schlemmerblock Und wir waren alle begeistert hier stimmt alles.Der Service war super und das Essen auch. Also ohne Schlemmerblock wären wir hier nicht hingegangen 😅aber wir kommen wieder auch ohne Schlemmerblock ihr seid mega macht weiter so bis demnächst wir können es nur jedem empfehlen ❣️

Hey, wir waren vor ca 2 Wochen bei euch und vollends zufrieden. Das Essen war super lecker, die Bedienung aufmerksam und das ganze Klientel einfach nur herrlich Familiär & gemütlich. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder ♡

Super leckers Essen zu günstigen Preisen. Pizza und Nudeln waren top, sowie auch der Wein ;)

Wir waren heute zu viert dort. Sehr freundliche Bedienung, netter geselliger Chef, gutes Essen und ein sehr gutes Preis Leistungs Verhältnis. Wir kommen wieder.

Ich kann mich den vorherigen Bewertungen überhaupt nicht anschließen. Ich war mit meiner Frau am 09.03 vor Ort. Vorweg hatten wir Aioli mit Brot und waren sehr zufrieden. Als Hauptgang hatten wir beide ein Nudelgericht. Eins war leckerer als das andere. Der Service war sehr nett und zuvorkommend und insgesamt ein sehr schönes Ambiente. Wir kommen wieder😀

Toller Ort, zum Verweilen mit Gleichgesinnten.. ❤️

Essen war sehr lecker, Bedienung war super. Wir kommen gerne wieder

Oh Man super Lokal klasse Essen, und eine Bedienung die bitte und danke sagen kann [alleine dafür wären 5 ⭐️ nötig) ein Inhaber der mega Sympathisch ist.

Sehr gemütliche und angenehme Atmosphäre und nettes Personal.

Sehr freundlich lecker preisgünstig aber leider keine Kartenzahlung möglich schade

Leckeres Pils, nette Atmosphäre, freundliche Bedienung!

Netter Abend bei Bier und Essen, freundlicher Betreiber, kommen gerne wieder!

Ich war jetzt 2x sonntags bei den 'Sonntagsvespen ' im Gecko Torhaus. Das Team ist sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Die Getränke sind top kredenzt und die Preise moderat. Ich werde zeitnah dort zum Essen einkehren , da dort auch im größeren Stil BBQ angeboten wird . Liebe Grüße ans Team , macht weiter so!!!! .

Wir waren sehr zufrieden 😊 aufgrund von Corona mussten wir unsere Hochzeit zweimal verschieben und es hat endlich geklappt. Preis-Leistung ist sehr gut, die Location ist sehr schön 🥰 das Essen war super und das Ambiente auch

Sehr gutes Essen und optimales Preis/Leistungsverhältnis. Das Personal ist immer aufmerksam, freundlich und zuvorkommend. Top !

Sehr schönes Ambiente, gute Bedienung und sehr leckeres Essen. Im Sommer toll draußen zu sitzen

Innen tolles Ambiente, draußen im Biergarten der Blick auf Förderturm und Olga Park. Waren 21/22 mehrmals zu verschiedenen Zeiten und Tagen da und haben uns immer wohl gefühlt. Keine unpersönliche Massenabfertigung. Eine Gastronomie mit Charakter und einem sympathischen Inhaber. Immer wieder gerne!

Gemütlich mit 'nem Bierchen in der Sonne sitzen und dann gut essen. Super.

Bedienung Klasse. Bissl Laute Musik. Da kann man nix für, das die Heizung kaputt ist . Essen war gut.

Top,hier passt alles, von der Location angefangen, Service, Essen,Musik, der Chef selber. Macht weiter so.
