Hensoldt Kantine in Ulm

The room appears flashy, comfortable, warm, almost luxurious. Almost........In fact the tables are not covered by tablecloths but, as in a diner, recently hygienic placemats, on which plates and cutlery, probably synthetic, are placed. The waiter, when the customers leave the table, passes us a sponge and voilà, on to the next one. We took advantage of it on 23.XII. 2023 of the buffet (cost €38 each, €19 for children). The choice was wide and of good quality. However, the tray with smoked fish (also excellent) was sadly almost empty at 7.30pm and was only replenished when we were leaving. The spoon for the warming dish with "mediterranische gratin" (modest) was encrusted with potatoes, making it difficult to serve, and it remained so. The fact that the beer served to me was not cold was very typical of a GDR restaurant. Ditto the failure to clean some obvious food remains that fell onto the carpet while the waiter was serving us. The cost for drinks was, of course, generous. But charging a bottle of water (0.75 cl.) the sum of €8.20 is like raiders in the desert. When it came time to pay the bill of €230.10, I only had 0.90 cents left. to the waiter who had treated us with disdain and inefficiency, perhaps because he considered us modest and inexperienced customers, given that we did not dress elegantly.

The cake was so-so. The cappuccino was decent. The waiter was a bit tricky with the bill. Oh well, it's entertaining. The best part is the view of the Leaning House and the location by the river.

The ambiance is debatable, but the view of the cathedral and the cathedral square is beautiful. The service was good, and the girls were friendly and hard-working. The coffee and cappuccino were okay; it's a shame that the milk was served in a single-serve container. In a coffee shop, I think it should be served fresh. The selection of cakes (no tarts) was meager; there were only four different varieties. And frankly, they didn't look particularly "homemade." My husband had a peach cheesecake that was set with so much gelatin that it could have been casually sliced ​​into thin slices; it tasted mediocre. All I remember about my plum cake was the mushy crumble covered in some kind of gelatin. The real highlight, though, was the canned whipped cream... Two slices of cake, one with whipped cream, a coffee, and a cappuccino for €15.90. The friendly waitress was visibly uncomfortable with my complaint about the whipped cream. Since I was aware that she had no involvement in the quality of the cream, I asked her to pass it on.

We placed the order at 6 p.m., and it was supposed to arrive by 7:40 p.m. at the latest. After nothing happened, I called at 7:30 p.m. and was assured that the food would arrive in 20 minutes. When the order didn't arrive, I called again, but no one answered, and my call was declined. The food arrived at 8:20 p.m., almost 2.5 hours later. The order was declined, and I'll never order from here again. Miserable.

Ich war mit meinem Freund dort und wir hatten eine richtig schöne Zeit. Das Essen war super lecker, frisch und authentisch – genau so, wie Ramen sein sollen! Das Personal war total freundlich und aufmerksam. Kommen auf jeden Fall wieder! 😊
