Gut Jägerhof in Erkrath

The two of us had dinner today and it was really great. The staff is very accommodating, friendly and simply committed. The food was very tasty and you can taste the passion and dedication when cooking. The dressings and sauces are all homemade and nothing comes from a bag. All in all, we were thrilled and will definitely come back. An absolute recommendation to anyone who appreciates very good cuisine.

I've been here again and again for years. Of course we also struggled with the recession, but we didn't overdo it. Food and service excellent.

We order the same steak every time, but the quality is very inconsistent. Sometimes it tastes very good, but sometimes not at all. We order it medium rare, but it is often served well done.

For literally over 20 years, this has been the place we go when it comes to steak. Good service, friendly staff and the food is super tasty. Update: still delicious

Good location, especially in spring or summer, with a beautiful view of the countryside. Food was good, but very expensive. Each supplement is charged separately. But that doesn't seem to deter anyone, we were there on a Saturday evening and the place was buzzing. The German likes to complain at the highest level. Service was very good, staff friendly and no waiting times. Recommended but then don't complain about the prices afterwards 🤣

Everything is fine, down to the worry-free package.

Very good steaks, friendly service 😊.

When butchers process and cook meat, the quality is simply right

Unfortunately, my visit to Gut Jägerhof was a bit disappointing, especially in terms of value for money. Charging 11 euros for a “large” and unique salad from the salad bar is quite steep. I found the price for a 300g fillet steak even more serious: an impressive 44.60 euros - and that without any side dishes! I would have expected at least a little more to be included in the price. Ambiance, service, etc. Overall, I unfortunately didn't find the prices appropriate in relation to the service.

As always, high quality meat, friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere.

Who knew you could be also be a hunter of quality vegetarian dishes at a steak resturant. Yes, in addition to the wide choice of meat dishes an excellent salad, salad bar and exquisite vege-burger are on offer here.

Actually, as always - friendly, non-intrusive staff! The food came pretty quickly after ordering! Everyone was happy! Thank you - see you next time!

I had a dish from the lunch/daily menu that was a delicious portion of goulash.

I ate a plate of 10 prawns and a salad here today for €45, And the food is no better than what you can eat at the buffet, and the quantity of dishes is mediocre, almost skimpy. Thanks for nothing Never again

That was our first visit, if that's the case next time we'll get the fifth star

The restaurant is a bit old. But they can still conjure up first-class steaks on the plate. My medium was medium rare, the others were on point. Huge self-service salad buffet. Delicious Side dishes are extra but you can combine everything freely

Top quality for less than EU30 for 600g of T-bone steak!!! Perfect attendance for 3 days!

Very tasty, friendly and above all inexpensive

We were in Oberhausen and decided to dine here for the 2nd time because of the beautiful view of the landscape, the area in front of the restaurant is also beautiful with the hanging branches of trees. The food here is actually delicious, a large piece of tender meat, various side dishes and a children's menu for a very good price. We will definitely come back here when we are in the area.

If you want to eat meat, definitely come here.

The view was great! the staff was friendly and the steaks were very tasty. Would definitely go again.

Very quaint, rustic restaurant, with the charm of the 80s with a large terrace and a beautiful view of the countryside. The service was very attentive and courteous, but it would have been desirable to tell us that we were the last guests and whether we would like to pay. Maybe you don't do that in an upscale establishment, but it's not nice when all the employees are already demonstratively tidying up and you have the feeling that you should please leave, so it's better to talk to them openly and honestly. The food came really quickly after ordering and was very good, although the price was already in the upper segment. It may probably be justified for the quality, but for the average citizen it is only feasible for special occasions.

Top Location. Top Essen. Top Service.

The food was very good but the service was so rarely unsympathetic that we won't go here again.

Top location. Great view and the food is really delicious. Plenty of parking spaces available

Best steakhouse outside America

Excellent service, perfect ambience, very tasty food combined with a great view

It is considered a relatively good German restaurant nearby, and the food is at the level of an average restaurant.

After about 20 years without visiting, I saved Gut Jägerhof as a middle-class, upscale address. Because of this positive memory, I decided to host my birthday dinner with the family here. Conclusion: -to order demolition cards like in a canteen -French fries unsalted -! Salad! -mayonnaise with the fries However, what is really crucial: -300g fillet steak for €45 rounded up WITH tendons (see photo - photo no longer available thanks to Google guidelines... policy violation...!?) - also not(!) buttery soft, somehow generally second-class quality (and I've already eaten a lot of steaks ... also for 80€ and up) -No regional beer in the Düsseldorf catchment region! Instead “Duckstein” (=Carlsberg). The Altbier is thin, quite light (little roasted aromas) and not really tasty. I would have expected delicious, regional Altbier here! The only positive thing for me: -the red wine from the Palatinate... (by the way, the only open red wine... also a really frightening selection...) Unfortunately we won't be coming back after this experience. The positive memory of the past could not be confirmed. Too bad.

Restaurant in a scenic location with a large parking lot and excellent cuisine. The steaks are fried to perfection and the side dishes leave nothing to be desired.

Thank you, again and again Thanks alot

A nice restaurant. Winding and multi-story, with a fantastic terrace. Very cozy and the food is also very good.

There are always tables available, no matter what time of day. We have enjoyed coming there for more than 30 years. Nice large terrace with great views. The inside is now showing its age, but it's not unpleasant. Lots of wood, lots of half-timbering. Cozy. Prices have increased steadily and steadily since 2001. Let's see how long we can afford this, it would be a real shame. Because the food was and still is of high and delicious quality!

Very nice, friendly service, there was nothing to complain about with the food either

Well, it was delicious And the portions were great! The staff is nice and friendly

If you want to eat a good steak in a quiet and friendly atmosphere, this is the place for you. This time we sat on the terrace. The view is great. The service was friendly and accommodating. The food arrived quickly and, as always, excellent. The prices are reasonable. Was a great evening.

I have never felt so welcome in a restaurant. Immediately upon entering we are asked whether we want to sit inside or outside, whether we want to sit in the sun or in the shade. After we take a seat on the terrace with a beautiful view, an extremely friendly waiter immediately comes to take the order and also has a chat. Smooth service and delicious food! A top restaurant!

The Gut Jägerhof is a very good restaurant where you are welcome. Because it's a little out of the way, you can usually get a table even without a reservation. We like going there because the dishes taste great and fill you up.

After eating it for 10 years, today I asked my children to calculate how much they had tipped over the past 10 years, and it turned out to be more than 5,000 euros. But the service was not good today. From now on, there will be no tips. I am planning not to come again this year. well

The steak was good, side dish overpriced: 1 croquette almost €1. Service unacceptable

The restaurant is not recommended. There are many better restaurants - a shame about the money.

A table on the terrace with a wonderful view, a well-tapped Pilsner and a steak that melts in your mouth... delicious...

Huge restaurant with a large terrace Steak was perfect to the desired doneness. Staff very friendly I'd love to come back when I'm nearby

I have been here many times. Compared with the steakhouses in Dusseldorf that are now experiencing rising prices, this place has an advantage in terms of price. As long as you don’t pursue the steak with great taste and only pursue affordable prices, you can come here to eat hard! The fried onions here are more delicious!

All I can say again and again is that Gut Jägerhof is a great restaurant. The best steaks in the area are served here and the rest of the menu is also highly recommended. The staff is super nice and the view from the terrace (if you sit outside when the weather is good) is absolutely beautiful. We always enjoy eating here. The price is absolutely worth the quality of the food.

We expected more. The medium-rare steaks were good, but the side dishes were quite bland. The fried potatoes weren't crispy and didn't taste strong. The Mediterranean vegetables were limp, meaning they were overcooked and not particularly aromatic. You searched in vain for the garlic flavor in the garlic sauce. All in all, pretty average for the price. While we were there, only Japanese guests ate there with a corresponding level of noise. Despite the wonderful atmosphere, we probably won't go there again.

The steaks and side dishes were tasty, nothing special but solid. Unfortunately our waitress was unfriendly and seemed very annoyed. That's not possible at this price level!

On our last visit the food was tastier, this time the Gutshof steak wasn't that good and the quality of the beef medallions wasn't that good either, there was a lot of stuff that had to be cut out, a shame for the price.

We went there to celebrate the 42 yrs birthday, it’s quiet and nice dinner. Service lady was super nice, and the steak is amazing.

The meat is fresh and tastes good. We come here almost once a year.

We were here in the late afternoon, very nice place with a great view outside. We had US beef, striploin with baked onions and fillet steak. Both on point medium. Side dishes were also very tasty. The service was quick, friendly and competent. It's a shame that the "quality wines" on the menu are not named according to origin, winemaker, etc. In this price segment, a classification similar to that for meat would be desirable.

The salad was good, the fries were good, and the steak was average. The tall male waiter at the door was picky about foreigners and ignored them. The waitress who served the food was nice. The price is not cheap, at least not in line with the quality. Will not be returning. Maybe his attitude is to prevent foreigners from coming. you made it!

You can't choose a better restaurant 👍everything is just right 😍😍😍

Great view, great food and super friendly service, not very cheap, but also great quality

The owner with the glasses discriminates against foreigners because of their skin color. I felt like that. He doesn't give the Asians any seats and says as if the foreigners don't speak German. Apart from that, it was tasty. Personally I wouldn't recommend it to foreigners.

Established institution for many years. Very good steaks and very friendly service. A bit outdated atmosphere.

Amazing location, amazing food. Very nice dining experience.

The food was average. The beef fillet was already going bad. The service was mediocre at best.

Service is extremely bad. You don't get an additional plate upon request. Orders are accepted with a shout. Not recommended

The best meat and alcohol in the best location. On the last day of my business trip to Dusseldorf, my senior colleague took me there as a consolation gift. Enjoy a hearty steak and a glass of German beer while looking out at the grassland scenery outside the window. It's a great restaurant. They came in a group, no matter what country they were from, but it was a little rude, and I hope it doesn't ruin the atmosphere of the restaurant. This may be the fate of popular restaurants. Personally, I would like to come back to relax and enjoy the delicious food and beautiful atmosphere. Thank you for the meal!

Last weekend I ate at your restaurant with my family. Unfortunately I have to inform you that we are very dissatisfied with the service! During our family dinner we realized we were missing a plate. When we reported this to the waitress we were told that there can't be too many plates. We were very surprised and disappointed by this statement, as it was a completely normal and understandable request. One of our guests simply didn't have a plate, which is of course not acceptable in a restaurant. However, the waitress's rude and unprofessional reaction wasn't the only problem. Even when the manager was called in, there was no apology for the inconvenience. Instead we continued to be treated rudely. Such behavior is unacceptable in the catering industry and leaves guests with an extremely bad impression. I hope that you will take this complaint seriously and take appropriate action to ensure that such incidents do not occur in the future. Unfortunately, due to this negative experience, I cannot recommend your restaurant and will not visit it again.

This was a very bad dining experience. The quality of service from the staff was poor. I hope the restaurant owner can better manage the service attitude of the employees.

Unfortunately, service is subpar

The service is absolutely bad!!! When you want to order something, the waitress stands 2 meters away from you as if you were a virus!!! You ask her to come closer because you don't want to scream... Then she impatiently says that she can hear from there!!! I don't understand this, is this still normal?!!!

Very enjoyable, good service, delicious food, good service

In this restaurant you can't even ask for a plate!!!

The service is really annoying, I will never go there again, very unfriendly!

Very good food, both meat and fish are well prepared and of very good quality. The side dishes and the salad bar are also highly recommended. There are enough parking spaces directly on site. When the weather is nice you can also sit outside. Definitely worth a visit!

Very good value for money, the food was fresh and tasty. Gladly again, I look forward to the next time.

Rest area ambience... Outdoor terrace could be nice but unfortunately it was closed. Service was slow and unfocused (forgot to order and then brought the wrong food and just a normal wheat beer instead of non-alcoholic beer). 44€ euros for fillet steak without any side dishes is more than outrageous (usury) and a 0.2 apple juice for more than 4€ is more than cheeky to be served at the cat table with no prospect or hope. The first and last time, it's not too much to ask for something warm to eat with your partner and this should be what you order. Can't understand the many positive reviews. Even if the crowded parking lot does me an injustice, I will continue to drive past this local and now be certain that I won't miss anything.

We ate there yesterday and the waiter was super nice and was able to help us even if we had gluten intolerances. Food came in a reasonable time and was very tasty. The decor is very funny, just like it was back in the 80s. However, the seating is very tight and when guests arrived at the neighboring table it became difficult to move. In addition, the drinks are all only 0.2l which I think is very small for the price. It is shown by Google with a €. That is definitely not true. It was already expensive, which isn't a bad thing if the quality and performance are good. But if you rely on Google, it's annoying when it's so expensive. Didn't have a salad but the salad bar looked really great. Definitely coming back.

The food is good, but the service attitude is rubbish! The waiter who served the food swore at me.

Great ambience Food is okay but very expensive! The steak had no taste of its own, you only tasted it being roasted, but the meat inside didn't taste like anything. The fried onions were great! The side salad was half a tomato, otherwise just leaf lettuce. Here in Leverkusen at the don Camillo Steak House it tastes better and is a little cheaper!!

I can't understand all the positive reviews here. The service is sublime. I was showered with a drink by the waiter, no one cared. The meat was great, but hidden under so many onions that after a successful search you were shocked at how little 200g of meat was. Prices are out of this world €30 for a portion of meat with onions and sauce are cheeky. You have to order the side dishes separately and pay (expensively). Special requests were laughed at by the waitress, sayings like, "If the boss pays more, the service will be better / We don't specialize in drinks, etc." Been here for the first and last time.

Courteous and friendly Great view (sat by the window) Great steak, loved the food. Advice and service quickly and competently. We were happy with dessert and espresso.

Bad service. Food totally overpriced, no side dishes, they have to be ordered. 0.2 ml drinks for an outrageous price. Fries totally salty. Once and never again

Plenty of food, good atmosphere

I ate 600g 42 times. I think it's a bit tough.

Always difficult for an Italian found good meat, good steak in a restaurant. Here there's a nice choice and the quality is not so bad. Amazing restaurant and location.

Outdated restaurant. Beautiful view and large terrace. Weizen was delicious and the steak was also great. Salad buffet well stocked and lots of choice. There is room for significant modernization.

The steak on the bone was ok. The burger patty was far dry and tasteless. The wheat non-alcoholic is massively overpriced at 6.50 euros. The bottle costs maybe 70 cents in the retail store. Facility is very outdated. A little work with a broom and a bucket of paint could do wonders. Never again!

We've been here a few times for steak, the meat is of impeccable quality (which of course has its price!) Yesterday evening I received my fillet through instead of medium for the first time, I gave a short notice and the management offered two suggested solutions to choose from without any fuss - it couldn't be better! The furnishings, like everywhere else, are a matter of taste; it is a converted barn, so the ambience is rustic. When it comes to service, it depends on who you get. Was served yesterday by a nice young lady, 14 days earlier on the terrace by an older lady who I think was wishing for the end of the day.

Quaint restaurant with a beautiful view over the Hubbelrather Bachtal. The food is very tasty, especially the Düsseldorf-style sirloin steak is a clear recommendation.

Very nice view, overpriced very average food, but still worth it due to the beautiful view.

Very sad to see this old manor house falling into disrepair…. Property maintenance and simple things like cleaning windows, tidying up, etc. are not seen here, or only to a very limited extent. The menus were changed by hand 😮 the whole thing is reminiscent of a slightly better Yugo chip shop. There is one plus point: the meat was completely fine.

Very nice, friendly staff 😍😍😍😍 Steaks super tasty including side dishes 😋😋😋..everything clean and perfect...gladly again 👍🏻

If you want to eat great steak in a good atmosphere, this is the place for you.

The terrace wasn't open when the weather was nice, a shame 😔 The furnishings inside were all getting old, quite old. Unfortunately, the food didn't appeal to me at all. The food is simply too expensive, so I only ate two side dishes.

As it has been for decades: The meat is worth kneeling down on.

Very good cuisine in a rustic atmosphere

The meat selection is great. The toilet can only be reached via awkward stairs.

Recommended, at least for those who like to eat good meat and also have a soft spot for Mediterranean cuisine, although there is also local cuisine, such as sirloin steak with a wonderful mustard crust. The whole thing is garnished with a beautiful view. I will come back and by the way, dogs are welcome. Spacious parking lot, attentive service

The steak was really great, the rest was nothing special. They want to play in the top league, but ruin everything with cut place mats and laminated menus with corrected (with ballpoint pen) prices. Apparently the change would be too expensive. It's a shame actually.

Update April 2024: Prices increased, we were no longer satisfied with the food. The service was friendlier. We were there on Ascension Day 2023. The weather was great, but you couldn't sit outside. Unfortunately it was very loud inside. Not a cozy atmosphere that invites you to linger, but rather a canteen feel. In terms of volume and appearance. The service staff seemed stressed. Food was ok so far. Unfortunately, every side dish, even sauce, has to be ordered and paid for separately. A lot of money for food in an uncomfortable and noisy environment.

Guest there for decades but yesterday Pure disappointment Prices increased smaller plates of estate steak no longer what it used to be, it's a shame it was always cult I have to let it sink in for now

Ever since I could think, pay and drive myself (80s) we have been going to the GJH for steak dinner. Unfortunately, the furniture, lamps and decorations are also out of date! The prices are no longer funny and the meat was better. The dust on the lamps and decorations is now clearly visible. So walk slowly past the tables otherwise it will trickle onto the steaks. A complaint was only dealt with with the advice “then you should choose the meat yourself at the counter”. For us, the tradition has now come to an end. 40€ for our steak without any side dishes is simply too much for this atmosphere and fast food restaurant. Off to a new provider. Everything old is not good.

The steaks here, very good. Each side dish costs extra but it's worth it. Very clean, friendly staff. I'm already looking forward to summer because there is an outside terrace with a unique view. We will be back! Highly recommended for me! 👍

Fast service and relatively short waiting time for the food

Guthof Steak. No questions asked. Good food, fast and friendly service.

Pleasant ambience with a view of the valley, unfortunately due to the levels and the toilet is not wheelchair accessible, excellent quality of meat (e.g. my double veal cutlet/veal saddle) upper price range, friendly and fast service, disadvantage: almost all side dishes have to be ordered separately, overpriced e.g. Mustard sauce, roux with mustard 5.50 euros, small piece of apple strudel, scoop of ice cream with lots of cream 10.50 euros
