Gourmet Tempel Forchheim in Forchheim

Always a lot of fun and good food.

Good buffet including drinks. Plates could be chosen. Is highly recommended.

Good food, great selection, friendly staff and everything was clean. The food could be just a little warmer, but that's a general problem with buffet restaurants. Overall, for me, one of the best I've visited so far.

Edit 2024: Still a great selection, as well as regional beer specialties and numerous types of wine. Not recommended at peak times, more likely during the week. In terms of price, it is only recommended if you really eat and drink a lot, otherwise a la carte is worth more elsewhere. However, you can try everything once. Only the marinade for the fresh curry chicken and herb beef was far too salty, the marinade definitely needs to be worked on here. —————————————————————————— The Best Asian All You Can Eat in the area The All You Can Eat buffet (with drinks) is more extensive than anywhere else High quality drinks such as Arizona, quality coffee machine and orange juicer. Everything is clean and fresh, numerous types of meat and everything else Very authentic cozy atmosphere Gladly again

it is written that admission is 18 euros, but upon arrival at the checkout we were told that it was 28

I heard different opinions, tried it myself and was very satisfied. Gladly again

Points deducted for dishes, very old and dirty.

The food was very tasty and the price-performance ratio was also top.

The greeting of the guests by the employee is very unpleasant

The food was not good at all as nothing was served fresh. The meat was hard, cold and dried, as were the mussels. Likewise, the dessert (chocolate fountain) was not chocolate, but a fatty glaze. The ambience is nice, but it is very hot in there. €30 is just not worth it for what you get.

The food is very tasty. Unfortunately, the service is very stressed and rather impersonal.

Food was great, used dishes were always cleared away very promptly, table (for 2 people) It wobbled a bit, everything isn't new, but that's normal, but still really good 👍

You have to go there every now and then 😊

Kantinenflär, large selection of Chinese/Asian dishes. 30,- all you can eat and drink.

Very crowded at lunchtime. Long queue at the buffet. Food good average, inexpensive

Once and never again. >30 min wait in line to get leftover lukewarm food. Depending on the number of visitors, airport or all-inclusive hotel atmosphere. Entertaining is difficult to impossible. If you need all you can eat & drink, you can do it. Everyone else goes somewhere else to have a good meal in a nice atmosphere.

Super delicious food.. large selection.. the cleanliness is not neglected either.. Overall 5 stars, I could now list so many things that were super delicious.. We'll be back

Rather average compared to other buffet restaurants. The only good thing is that all the drinks - from juice to beer to wine - are included in the price. Otherwise it was a unique “experience” for me

The selection of food was very good, something for everyone. The selection of drinks included in the price is also varied and the drinks are well chilled. Unfortunately the cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. Unfortunately, the plates, glasses and cutlery were not always clean, so you had to get new ones. I'd rather not mention the sanitary facilities here because it was rotten and dirty, and probably much worse for the women. The staff was very quick but unfortunately without any smile or word. The temperatures in the restaurant were almost unbearably hot and there was no oxygen in the entire restaurant. A door was only opened for ventilation shortly before closing. But price performance was ok. If the hygiene improves significantly and the staff smiles and says something nice, I might come back

Everything was great again, the food was very good and always fresh

Everything was very good except the interior was very warm.

The food was rich and good. The service was great, my guests and I really enjoyed it.

Overall, very tasty, but also greasy - we were all full relatively quickly But you can eat and drink as much as you want, that's really great!

At first it wasn't entirely clear where to go. But we found it 😃. Location is very inviting, you have a good overview of the buffet and the seats. I can only recommend it 👍🏼

Very good all you can eat concept. The first thing you pay at the entrance is €30 per person and €5 for children (prices for the evening). Afterwards you can decide whether you want to get food that has already been prepared or choose meat or fish to have fried. Everything is included in the price, including alcoholic drinks (wine, various types of beer) as well as juices, soft drinks, iced teas and many well-known brands. Hot drinks are included. Chocolate fountain with fresh fruits. Different types of sushi. You can go as a group or alone. There is no time pressure like in other locations. Lots of free parking spaces available right in front of the door. Accessibility available. Everything nice and clean.

It couldn't be better. Everything is right here.

On July 31, 2024 I visited a restaurant and was extremely dissatisfied. It is very hot in the hall, there is no air conditioning and no fans. Green flies crawl on the food. The attitude of the staff and management towards guests has changed. Cookies that used to be free now cost 50 cents.

I go there at least 5 or 6 times every year, it's not cheap but I've always had good experiences.

The food is good, but it's best to have fresh things that you give away for the grill.

Food is not fresh, waitresses are rude. Price is far too high for the performance

Not everything is perfect in this hot weather, you could just turn on the air conditioning then the guests would feel a little more comfortable while eating! The food was ok for a buffet but given the price you can't complain any further! You can tell that on some days when there are probably more staff, the store runs better!

Nice location with good food, as you would expect from a Mongolian buffet. A great selection of fish, meat and vegetables. The plates are cleared quickly and the ambience is just right.

Super good, there is a lot of choice there and you can also try food from many countries, there is plenty of space there with a dog and you can also order warm food there

Very nice place, large amount of great staff

The quality is ok, but nothing outstanding, the whole place is already showing its age, the lighting in the refrigerators partially works. no longer, there is only a careless Tupperware container on the table for the plate clamps, places are partly. very narrow,... Too warm and stuffy in the restaurant in summer. Price at €30 per person (as of June 2024) is only ok if you really eat a lot and don't have any great culinary demands.

- a large selection of dishes - really tasty prepared - enough space for large groups - unfortunately the plates are very old and pieces are missing everywhere

Great selection, everything delicious, something for every taste

Great buffet food with a huge selection and fresh. Gladly again

A beautiful restaurant with an incredible selection. The only thing I noticed is that the food sometimes isn't as good as the previous visit, but in and of itself it tastes very good. The Suhsi is freshly made and also tastes delicious. There are many different types of exotic meat to try (they are freshly grilled). The atmosphere is also very nice and the staff is always friendly. All in all a good restaurant with lots of delicious dishes and desserts.

Unfortunately, the food is not always fresh during the week, which means that prepared dishes are sometimes only lukewarm. It gives the impression that the staff doesn't speak a lick of German and as soon as you've finished eating or drinking, it's immediately cleared away. I realize that this is normal with all you can eat, but leaving a little more time in between certainly wouldn't hurt

Fair entry price, good selection of food - something for everyone, always well prepared and the waiters are very busy collecting empty plates and glasses from guests. Pleasant temperature and ambience. 4/5 stars because in some places like under the tables it's not completely clean, but don't worry, it's always clean on top of the tables.

The food is very good. Service is quick and friendly. Always come back.

What should be highlighted positively is that even without a reservation, you could get a table with 6 people without waiting. (The restaurant is also accessible to wheelchair users. There is no parking problem.) This is mainly due to the size of the Gourmet Temple. You pay the flat rate per person upon entry, drinks are included in the price. Otherwise the atmosphere was more like that of a canteen. The range of dishes was varied, but not very tasty. As a lover of Asian cuisine, I expected more. It was quite loud in the restaurant, the dishes were broken, coffee spoons and cake forks were nowhere to be found. The used dishes were cleared away quickly, although the staff left a stressed impression.

The food is okay, nothing more. I've eaten better. It is incredibly loud in the restaurant itself. For the price, I'd rather go to a restaurant where I can sit more comfortably and the food is served at my seat. I found it very unpleasant to be greeted by a gentleman who initially shouted at me that I had to pay before I eat. For info. I'm on crutches and I was just looking at where the rest of my troops were sitting. You could simply tell new customers in a friendly manner that this only works with advance payment. Well, not a second time...

Soup and dessert were good, the rest of the buffet was lukewarm and hard because it was dried out. Freshly cooked tastes worlds better!

Still very good. Food...yes, as always it's a matter of taste. And it's unlikely that you'll like everything. But there is one drawback for me. I miss the normal fries and the scallops that used to be available here. Therefore 1 star deduction in the food section.

Very good selection. But too many people, there's no chance of an eternal queue at the normal buffet. A pity. Went there again today and tested the lunch buffet.... Great👍but the chocolate fountain doesn't work at all....that has nothing to do with CHOCOLATE but nothing at all, unfortunately just fat icing, and even that tasted burnt. 👎👎We were there again today and everything was fine. Unfortunately, only the chocolate fountain was covered in grease icing...

It was really tasty there and there was a lot to choose from

Rich selection of food and drinks, the children also loved it. The waitresses are on their toes when it comes to clearing things away. Prices are reasonable.

Our favorite family restaurant. Everything is very tasty and beautiful.

Super tasty, versatile, inexpensive, simply great!

The food was very bad. The selection is very small in contrast to other Asian restaurants with all-you-can-eat offers. The staff didn't speak German, so they couldn't help if you asked. The plates were mostly wet and some were poorly washed. In addition, despite it being 7:20 p.m., some items such as the grilled pork belly were not refilled. What was good were the drinks and

Was very disappointing!!! We had pre-ordered a round table for 6 people, when we arrived at opening time we were offered a table that was much too narrow and said: We are fully occupied today. No staff responded to our pre-order, which was made days in advance. The motto is: take this or go. This doesn't exactly show customer focus. The food was rather mediocre, the specially fried meats were grilled to death. No recommendation from me

Some of the food seems old, the cleanliness could be better If it's possible, I'll only come at lunchtime, where it's cheaper, otherwise I can eat better somewhere else for the money

30 euros for a large evening buffet including all drinks of your choice, even alcoholic drinks. What more can you ask for in this crazy inflationary time?

30 euros per person is quite a lot... It's not really good...

It was OK The Mongolian buffet is okay although I missed a few sauces Everything is a bit confusing and very rushed Nothing worked at all on the finished buffet The system is the last Everyone stood in a circle around the buffet and no one could get close A huge queue and nothing is moving forward I have no idea how people managed it, but nothing worked The sushi was good The vegetables, meat and fish were also fresh The drink selection is okay For the price, probably not again on Sundays A pity

Ordered a large round table for a birthday. Over two weeks ago. Just to give us a normal table in the last corner now. No, thank you never again.

I was there twice and got food poisoning. I didn't think it was that bad

Everything was great, the food and ambience were great.

Price performance is great 👍🏻 tastes great & the selection of drinks (Arizona, now & Co) is great. Also quite spacious - gladly again!

For 30€ all you can eat & drink is not cheap. The food is varied but rather below average with only a few exceptions. All hot dishes are no more than lukewarm. Many service staff who unfortunately don't understand German and are therefore of little help when you have questions about the options at the buffet. The employee at the grill doesn't respond to your requests regarding the cooking point. Everything is fried to death and then listlessly put on the plate and brought to the table by a service person. The selection of meat types for roasting is large and also includes alligator/crocodile. Anyone who doesn't have any special quality requirements and is more into quantity will be satisfied here. There are various starters, main courses and desserts that can be taken individually directly from the buffet. However, if the plates are not eaten empty, the guest will be charged an additional fee. It is therefore better to always take a very small amount of the dishes first so that it doesn't get too expensive if something doesn't taste good. Connoisseurs should avoid the sushi on offer, which can be found in large quantities at the buffet for quite a long time, in order not to be too disappointed. The appearance alone reveals the above-average service life. By the way, the visit is limited in time. The drinks offered are also limited in quantity. If you drink more, it will be charged separately. Taking leftovers with you, even if they don't taste good, is not allowed. If the plate is not empty, a waste surcharge will apply.

The food is very good, very rich and there is something for every taste, dessert with chocolate fountain, various types of meat or fish, sushi starters, fruit and vegetables, so there is actually something for everyone, which I really have to move. It was generally a bit louder over the course of the evening due to the room and the many guests and it got very warm. The air conditioning should be overhauled or put into operation

Was there for the first and last time. The restaurant was very busy. The air was bad. There was a large selection of food, but everything had no taste. The dessert was older, the fruits were carelessly cut into large pieces...e.g. the melon 🍉.

Good restaurant with a large selection of food and drinks.

Wer sich mit maximalen Mengen vollfressen und nachher wie das Essen selbst riechen will, ist hier richtig, “Gourmet” allerdings Fehlanzeige. Es geht nicht um Genuss, sondern um dumpfe Voellerei. Vorsicht Rutschgefahr auf fettigen Böden.

It's always an experience. Buffet food, nice gathering with friends. However, thanks to inflation and taxes, it is no longer in the price-performance ratio. It used to be possible to eat whatever you pay. This is no longer linked from €30 per person. Unfortunately it's also extremely full with people getting food but not eating. It's very shameful how people from other nations behave. It's a shame for the operator. We still like being there.!! Tip - time/clock like in chess. Then the tables are not occupied for 2 hours. Price areas: students, pensioners, disabled 25% discount

Affordable all-you-can-eat buffet (€30 in the evening including wine, beer, juices and soft drinks). Unfortunately very loud and long waiting times for freshly prepared food. Unfortunately, due to the low price, the quality also leaves something to be desired. In terms of taste and quality, the dishes are more reminiscent of mediocre canteen cuisine (soft-boiled vegetables, dry, tough meat, floury seafood). If you like a lot and cheap, this is the place for you. It is precisely this audience that is addressed here. Otherwise, how can you explain that people in jogging suits go to dinner and get a table at the same time? 2 stars only because the drink selection is good, the service is friendly and fast and the price is low.

It used to be better Staff only plays on their cell phones Food is loveless and no longer tasty

The most “tasteless” all you can eat restaurant I have visited so far. Even glutamate no longer helps. The service from the staff was good. The toilet was clean, was the highlight of the visit.

The shop is open until 10 p.m., we came at 8 p.m. There was no sushi, no café, no orange juice, no real food. Only the grill and only until 9 p.m. When asked, the only answer was that there was nothing new left to eat, only the leftovers. From 9 p.m. everything was cleaned up and some of the lights were turned off. It used to be a nice shop but now I can only say that for €30 I can eat somewhere else. You can't even have a nice drink

Food was good... drinks were included in the buffet... but unfortunately very loud like in a canteen...

The selection is very large and it tastes delicious. It was a bit loud

Unfortunately the food is subpar. In terms of taste, nothing here is convincing. Price performance not available.

Delicious food. I was always full afterwards. And a huge selection.

The food was very good . And it wasn't too loud for its size. Price/performance ratio was also very good.

Yes, quite a lot of choice when it comes to dishes...

It's really delicious there and also nice and clear... Only when it's really too crowded then I don't think it's great anymore. You stand in line forever and everyone just pushes their way in somewhere, that's really not nice... But otherwise, highly recommended and the price is right 👍

Very rich buffet of food and drinks. The service came to the table regularly and cleared away. At 8 p.m. everything was packed and the volume was quite high. But otherwise I can recommend it

The first impression counts: a long line of people who have reserved. When it's your turn, an obviously overwhelmed pensioner complains about why you're late. When you answer that you stood in line for 20 minutes, which you caused yourself, you get the payment receipt thrown at you [literally]. At least on Saturdays and in the middle of the month the store is completely overcrowded with people who just get their money in the middle of the month. The service staff makes a real effort, but cannot keep up with the guests' cravings. Prices are now 30 euros for the buffet. Understandable, given the amount of free alcohol that is poured there because it doesn't cost anything. But the audience has one good thing: the typical Chinese pierogi that are now being served are really excellent

Als langjähriger Gast des Gourmet Tempels haben wir als Familie nun auch den in Forchheim versucht und wurden sehr enttäuscht. Ich bedauere zutiefst, meine Erfahrung mit einem Stern bewerten zu müssen. Das Personal zeigte sich unfreundlich und unkooperativ, indem sie uns während des Essens vier Mal aufforderten, den Tisch zu verlassen, um Platz für eine größere Gruppe zu schaffen. Auch die Bitte, das Gericht in Ruhe beenden zu dürfen, wurde nicht erhört und wir wurden in kurzer Zeit mehrmals gestört. Diese Unterbrechungen beeinträchtigten unser kulinarisches Erlebnis erheblich. Zudem war der Restaurantchef / Vorgesetzter nicht bereit, mit uns über diese Unannehmlichkeiten zu sprechen, was die Enttäuschung nur verstärkte. Wir wurden von der Bedienung gebeten entsprechend eine Bewertung zu schreiben, da sie nicht weiter mit uns sprechen wollte. In Anbetracht dieser Erfahrung kann ich den Gourmet Tempel nicht weiterempfehlen.

Unfortunately, you didn't get the right Asian flair here. Seems like a big “eat and go” The selection is plentiful, from normal finger food to your own plate on the grill where it is freshly prepared. The toilets are in rather poor condition (men's toilet) and I can't say anything about the women's toilet. The choice for the chocolate fountain is plentiful, ice cream and fruit are no problem. All in all a 3.5 when I look at everything.

As long-time guests of the Gourmet Temple, we as a family tried the one in Forchheim and were very disappointed. I deeply regret having to rate my experience with one star. The staff were rude and uncooperative, asking us to leave the table four times during the meal to make room for a larger group. The request to be allowed to finish the court in peace was also not heard and we were disturbed several times in a short space of time. These interruptions significantly impacted our dining experience. Additionally, the restaurant manager/supervisor was unwilling to discuss this inconvenience with us, which only added to the disappointment. We were asked by the waitress to write a review because she didn't want to speak to us further. Given this experience, I cannot recommend Gourmet Tempel.

Good food, friendly staff generally a bit noisy when everything is full, but the buffet is always refilled quickly

It's just a temple for eating, but it's a pretty good one and, above all, it may sometimes feel and smell like a cafeteria, but that's basically necessary and that's what the temple is designed for, namely mass for real noble enjoyment, but it is for many a good way to have some Asian feeling without spending 90 euros for three rows of sushi

The food is of consistently good quality. I prefer to put my plate together at the "raw" buffet and then put it on the grill so that it is freshly prepared. I've never felt bad after eating (based on other reviews). The selection of drinks is really very good, including Lammsbräu beers, lemonades, Arizona iced tea, coffee machines, and much more... What is consistently negative: - The noise in the restaurant is really enormous and often makes eating out unbearable - If you're smart, go at 5:30 p.m. during the week if possible; on weekends it's purely mass processing with long lines - two broken urinals in the men's toilet since January '24 (now it's mid-March and you get the feeling that there's no interest in fixing this) - At the dessert buffet there is only one (!) ice cream ball maker for around 8 different types of ice cream. Every flavor of ice cream is constantly contaminated with a different flavor. Even the cup that goes into the ice cream ball maker is just a disgusting mess. Something urgently needs to change! The ice chest itself is also very rickety and old. A small investment with a new idea for portioning ice cream would really be worthwhile in order to offer appetizing ice cream again - Often dirty plates at the buffet, you have to be careful to get a clean plate - Many small bowls are chipped at the edges - Staff could be more friendly and sensitive when clearing up - The baked duck at the buffet is always sold out because people like to eat it. It's not bad, but it could definitely be topped up more regularly - When you bring your "raw" plate to the grill and the food is later served to the table, it often has one or two ingredients from another guest on it because it is partially mixed on the grill. More attention should be paid to this

Good food in a pleasant atmosphere.

Suschi very bad this year just glue like a rubber teddy beer

A huge selection of starters, main courses and desserts. Large selection of drinks from water to various beers and wines, all you can eat. You can also put together your dish from raw meat and other ingredients and have it prepared on the grill and then brought to the table. Food very good and large selection of drinks too. However, the volume in the restaurant is very high and it is usually very crowded, especially on weekends. Reservations are definitely recommended.

Nettes Restaurant mit unbegrenztem Angebot. Sie fügen häufig neue Speisen hinzu. Das Essen ist schmackhaft, frisch und es gibt eine große Auswahl an Speisen. Desserts, Schokoladenbrunnen und Eiscreme sind vorhanden. Es gibt auch Sushi. Abends wird der Grill angeworfen und man kann sich seine eigenen Zutaten zusammenstellen, die dann mit einer Sauce ggrillt werden, die man selbst wählt. Bei den Getränken können Sie zwischen alkoholischen und nicht-alkoholischen wählen. Bei den alkoholischen Getränken gibt es eine große Auswahl, es gibt viele verschiedene Flaschenbiere und Wein vom Fass. Bei den alkoholfreien Getränken gibt es viele verschiedene Säfte und Eistees und Kaffee aus der Kaffeemaschine oder Tee. Ich war schon in mehreren ähnlichen Lokalen, aber das Forheim gefällt mir am besten. Nice restaurant with unlimited food. New foods are added frequently. The food is delicious, fresh and there is a wide variety of food. There are desserts, a chocolate fountain and ice cream. There is also sushi. In the evening, they turn on the barbecue and you can assemble your own ingredients to fry it with a sauce that you also choose. For drinks, you can choose from alcoholic and non-alcoholic. There is a wide variety of alcoholic drinks, there are many different bottled beers and wine by the glass. For non-alcoholic drinks, there are many different juices and iced teas and coffee from the coffee machine or tea. I've been to several different similar establishments, but most

Mass processing. Not good quality from the buffet and desserts. “Sushi” is also poor. The drink selection is good.

I recommend eating as much as you can and they even have crocodile, zebra, kangaroo food. It's not a joke, it's true. They have super delicious food

You just can't eat here anymore. Until 2021 it was still good, undoubtedly the best Chinese buffet in the region. During Corona and until 2023 it was already noticed that things are continuing to decline. Fewer and fewer guests. Since 2024 you can't go here anymore, the food is truly rubbish!! - Poor selection, certain dishes were deleted and replaced with cheap stuff like fries - There are no hot dishes anymore, everything is kept warm at a maximum of 20 °C, the food not only looks old, it is also old and inedible - Finding clean plates is a matter of luck - The staff is unfriendly and taciturn - The toilets look bad, you don't want to know what the kitchen looks like - The last visit resulted in pain and diarrhea; Apparently we fell victim to mild food poisoning (see the countless other posts reporting similar things). WE WILL NEVER SET ONE FOOT HERE AGAIN!!

After a while the food had slowed down a bit and is now good again. Recommended for lunch as a menu. It has everything that Asian cuisine offers.

Long queues at the buffet, lukewarm food and sushi that had apparently been there for a long time. Only the drink selection is good.

Something to dream about!! I recommend with confidence...

Queue at the entrance to pay. Long queue at the open buffet. Catastrophic! Stay limited to 2.5 hours. If you leave more than 100 grams on your plate you have to pay extra. Alcoholic drinks limited to three per person. Way too many people in the restaurant. €30 is too much money for that. Is it better to eat somewhere else in a more comfortable setting? It's so loud that you can't have a conversation. Never again!!!!

The food was good all can you eat but what's annoying about it is that you only have 2.5 hours left to eat then you have to leave.

Bad experience, the smell inside the restaurant is very strong, and you pay money, but you will be surprised when the food, like sushi, is finished. They will tell you that you came late. I will not enter here again.
