Gourmet Tempel Forchheim in Forchheim

Black sesame ice cream is simply awesome!

The rolls are tasteless, there is not much choice, the food gets cold very quickly, as if it was prepared yesterday and only heated up a little today

Always delicious but at the moment absolutely overrun, always full and yes 🙂‍↕️ The food and selection is really outstanding, you can't say it's a cool all you can eat restaurant

We ate here on February 14, 2025. Were received very unfriendly even though we had reserved. We were given a piece of paper with a number and sent to find our table. When we then asked the staff (not exactly friendly) about our table, she looked very surprised and then gave us another seat (coordination is out of place here). There's no need to speak too much about the food, the food was far too greasy. But you can enjoy drinks here.

The best institution in Bavaria. The design and interior are also delicious - for everyone 💯🌹❤️🍰

Cozy, good food and pleasant staff.

The food was delicious and was extensively offered at the buffet. Action would be necessary with the porcelain bowls for dessert (ice cream). These are no longer beautiful because almost every shell has already chipped off.

Great, we go there at least once a month. :D love it! 😋😍 a highlight every time.

Very good food and a very wide selection...

Sunday lunchtime had an atmosphere like in a canteen, Mass production, large selection of drinks, food tasted good

Very tasty and even drinks are included in the all you can eat menu. 30 euros per person.

We were there for dinner with 8 people. Were more than satisfied. Food was great. Would love to come back. Can't understand the negative reviews.

Great, had a great evening. Staff very attentive, great food, huge selection. Gladly again 👍🏼👍🏼

Very good price-performance ratio 👌

Wir waren mit 8 Personen zum Essen da. Zuerst hatten wir wegen den negativen Bewertungen bedenken. Wir hatten einen super schönen Abend mit abwechslungsreichen und guten Essen. Ich komme gerne wieder.

Went to the lunch buffet with the family at the Gourmet Tempel in Forchheim at the weekend. The selection of food is large. However, the food is sometimes lukewarm by the time you get to the place. Furthermore, the food tastes very greasy.. The meat buffet, which you can have fried, sometimes took a very long time or took too long, even though the grill was sometimes empty, the plates were still on the counter without being fried.. At the end we ate dessert and drank coffee. The coffee, whether cappuccino coffee etc., was much too strong.

It's good but there are better ones ^^ The buffet is a bit small because there are too many people waiting in line.

No more cocktails from 8:45 p.m. 👎

The staff doesn't really speak German and is very difficult to understand, which wouldn't be a problem because we were there to eat, not to have conversations. What is not possible, however: due to the lack of language skills, a harmless misunderstanding arose, as a result of which the staff, including the boss, became completely unselfish and unreflectively aggressive, shouted at us in front of the irritated other guests and then threw us out of the restaurant. We go out to eat regularly and have never experienced such impudence. As you can read here in the other reviews, the unfriendliness of the staff is already legendary; With us, however, it has probably reached its most inglorious peak. For the average quality of the food at best, you don't have to put up with this excitement a second time.

Das Personal ist der deutschen Sprache nicht wirklich mächtig, ist sehr schwer zu verstehen, was nicht weiter schlimm wäre, denn wir waren zum Essen dort, nicht für Konversationen. Was allerdings gar nicht geht: aufgrund der mangelnden Sprachkenntnisse entstand ein harmloses Missverständnis, aufgrund dessen das Personal, inklusive des Chefs, völlig unselbstkritisch und unreflektiert aggressiv wurde, uns vor den irritierten anderen Gästen anbrüllte und uns dann aus dem Lokal warf. Wir gehen regelmäßig essen, so eine Unverschämtheit haben wir noch nie erlebt. Wie man hier in den anderen Bewertungen lesen kann, ist die Unfreundlichkeit des Personals bereits legendär; bei uns allerdings hat sie vermutlich ihren bisherigen unrühmlichen Höhepunkt erreicht. Für die höchstens durchschnittliche Qualität des Essens, muss man diese Aufregung kein zweites Mal in Kauf nehmen.

Busy and loud, but it was still worth it.

Delicious food.. big selection.. you can leave the cleanliness. , I could now list so many things that were delicious... ------------------------------------------------------ From October 2024, new prices will now be imposed on you for 2 drinks, but you will pay 3 euros more per person. Duck is also becoming less and less... and 15 € was already a lot... but I think whoever is greedy will lose out in the end... fewer and fewer guests come... 3 stars have to be enough.

I always think it's great to visit there and the food is delicious 😋

We had a great lunch and excellent food. There was something delicious for every taste, even the children got their money's worth. Thanks for that

Very nice big restaurant. Food very good. Attentive wait staff, tables are cleared quickly. Broken plates and cutlery needed to be replaced. A tip box for employees would be nice.

We had already made reservations by phone for New Year's Eve for 8 people 6 weeks in advance. Our reservation went under. So we had to spontaneously look for food for 8 people at 8:30 p.m. on New Year's Eve. What a shame.

There's a lot going on at the weekend 😬

Eat a good buffet. At times the bowls at the buffet were empty.

It wasn't our first time here and we were always satisfied. The price-performance ratio was right. But today it was really anything but good, we had reserved for 6 people because it was my wife's birthday for 8 p.m. As usual, we arrive and pay in advance for the buffet and all you can eat and drink, at least €64 for two people. We sit down and wait about 10 minutes for the rest of our party. As usual, we were looking forward to a rich and great range of food. When we were complete we started and made the first round at the buffet in feudal anticipation. Luckily there wasn't that much going on. But when we were all back at the table after the first round, we noticed one or two long faces. But we assured each other that more would definitely be added to the buffet soon because the restaurant is still open for at least another hour and a half. When the first ones set off for the second round at less than 8:50 p.m., we noticed that not even one bowl had been refilled. When I asked politely whether one or two things could be refilled, I was told by one of the waitresses that the kitchen was already closing time and that it was finished. And be careful, O Ton, you first have to show me the invoice that you paid. I then told the lady that I found this behavior and this statement very unclear. And went back to the table to report what had just happened. Mind you, we weren't the only table still occupied in the restaurant. But I think such behavior is really a shame and we wish we could have been told on the phone when the kitchen was closing. But I think you can certainly invest your money better elsewhere! So we probably won't come back after this performance!

Absolutely recommended and delicious 😋 even after several years the food is very good and the atmosphere is nice

I don't understand the praise here. We've often heard that the one in Forheim is so good. And yesterday we experienced the opposite of good. Visually the food looks really good, lots of choice but taste! Everything is over-seasoned, duck tastes like cheap chicken nuggets. Meat for the Mongolian barbecue floats in bowls with oil. Why?? Probably so you can't eat so much of it? Everything is generally very greasy. And the worst thing - the sauces contain glutamate, I have an intolerance and I can taste it straight away. This morning I had a terrible headache because of it. The only positive thing is the selection of drinks. So this was the first and last visit for us, we'd rather eat in Bamberg again.

I was there for dinner. For me there is enough choice of different dishes. Everyone has to judge for themselves whether the all-you-can-eat is right for them for the price or not, for me the price fits what I ate. Nice staff, clean, tidy and quick to clear up. Gladly again.

The food was very good, worth the money, I will definitely come back

We enjoy going here with colleagues. Lots of choice of food and drinks. We like it better than in Bamberg.

Delicious food, service is normal for a chain of this type..

A must for all all-you-can-eat fans. Eat until you want, the main thing is a lot.

Unfortunately, you always eat way too much, the food, the ambience are all great

Always delicious. Price/performance top

The food is ok to good, but nothing special. The price for it is already very high. The staff is friendly and attentive. The atmosphere has something of a hotel dining room!

Stuffy air, mediocre food, cramped at the table, never again, that has nothing to do with Asian food, that's mass processing at the lowest level

Saturday 5.30 p.m. The wild mob is lining up across the parking lot. The receptionists have the zodiac sign of turtle. An hour of waiting has quickly passed before you sit at the table. You will be charged before you are allowed to feed. And when you see the buffet, you immediately know why you pay here first. A small buffet with warm dishes for countless hungry people. The conditions in a beef cattle farm are more pleasant. And probably the food too. Unfortunately, the food doesn't have much of a classic Chinese flavor. Sushi and Mongolian are ok but not outstanding either. A plate didn't reach us anymore. The selection of drinks is okay and there are also 3 alcoholic drinks. Probably for distraction. There isn't much on offer for children. Neither food nor entertainment. The tables are placed far too closely. This makes it almost impossible to get through the hallways and step on other people's jackets. We don't need it again...

The Gourmet Temple deserves its name. Great selection of fresh and unusual meats, fish, seafood, vegetables, ready-made dishes, desserts... And drinks are also included in the buffet price, which is really reasonable per person. The ladies in service are very quick and the used plates were cleared away quickly. Really recommended. But you almost definitely have to make a reservation (especially on weekends).

Waited outside in the cold for half an hour with the baby. And they said we had no space, even though the store was half empty

A wide range of ready-made and freshly prepared dishes. The fixed price including drinks makes it easy to calculate your budget. However, it would be very desirable that you receive the selected dishes after they have been prepared and not some of those of another guest.

The price-performance ratio is really unbeatable. There is a very large selection of drinks that are included in the buffet price. The variety of the buffet is also very large. Here everyone will find something to suit their taste. Absolute recommendation!

They took away our alcohol and drove us away, bullshit.

Poor communication, unable to update their website and unavailable by phone.

The location and food are excellent. It's worth a visit

Simply amazing.....when you get an available table. They should put something on their website, letting costumers know to 'always' get a reservation or to not show up for opening hours.

We went to the lunch buffet and it was very tasty and varied. Particularly noteworthy was the friendly service who always cleared plates straight away.

The poor employees. Actually I should give 100 stars. They're really trying hard. Food is great, location is as usual, but things are probably quieter in the predator enclosure during feeding.

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.

You have to go there every now and then 😊

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 👍

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.

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!

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.

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 👍🏼

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

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.
