Jumbo Café Bistro in Erlangen

We had the appetizer here and were unfortunately disappointed. We skipped the main course afterward. For example, the baked cheese (Jibneh maqliye) tasted and felt very similar to simple baked Gouda/Camembert from the supermarket. The dips served seemed like premixed products and lacked depth of flavor. The other dishes also gave the impression of being frozen or convenience food rather than freshly prepared. Therefore, we felt it wasn't good value for money. It's a shame, as we had expected significantly more authenticity and freshness from a restaurant serving this cuisine.

Absolutely fantastic. I can only say the food was top-notch, the service was top-notch, and the owner was incredibly cool! We'll be back.

When I was here a year ago, everything was great. It seems a bit more expensive, but the prices for burgers are normal these days, and they also offer special burgers, so I think the price is justified. A few months ago, I wanted to make a reservation. October wasn't possible, but in November, the system offered me a free date, which I booked because the shop was "temporarily" closed. When I asked early whether they were actually open, I didn't get a response. The phone doesn't work. The website displays all the information as if they were open. I think it's a shame that this isn't communicated clearly.

Excellent food, I highly recommend it!

Very tasty food and amazing vibe. Felt really at home.
