Karl Bäuerlein Gaststätte in Crailsheim

We ate there today, and unfortunately, I've never had worse Greek food in my life. The service was friendly and quick. After asking twice, we still didn't get a straw (they had some on site), but that can sometimes get lost. Unfortunately, both Diet Cokes were completely deflated. That was very annoying. We ordered nuggets with fries for our son. Three out of six were completely burnt. I complained about them. New ones were brought right at the end of the meal, but unfortunately, half of them were much too dark. The fries were brown but not cooked through. This unfortunately indicates used and old fryer oil. Unfortunately, they were inedible. The warm appetizer plate for two consisted of a bag of salad, deep-fried and breaded eggplant and zucchini, feta in filo pastry, deep-fried feta in breadcrumbs, and feta in paprika. Unfortunately, everything was far too salty. The "paprika jam" was delicious. Generally, for €25, there's hardly any real variety and it's very bland. Unfortunately, the menu doesn't say what you're being served. Had I known what to expect beforehand, I would never have ordered it that way. For my main course, I had gyros with calamari, tzatziki, and fries. The gyro was visible on a skewer when I walked in, but it wasn't tasty. Either it had been warmed up or it had simply been on the skewer for too long. It was far too dry. The tzatziki was tasteless, and the slight freshness from the cucumber and garlic was not noticeable. The calamari was completely oversalted. The fries were almost certainly pre-fried but not fully cooked. They were undercooked inside and full of fat. Unfortunately, I couldn't eat them. There was easily a tablespoon of frying oil on my plate. I ate most of the gyro and calamari, simply because I was hungry. My wife had calamari with tomato rice. The calamari was also completely oversalted. The tomato rice was unfortunately not tasty at all. When we were asked at the end if everything was okay, I explained the situation in detail. I emphasized that the meal was unfortunately a complete failure, but of course I would pay for it without question. After all, the waitress couldn't be blamed for it, and I ate it anyway. We then received dessert without asking, which—I'm really sorry—was simply not good either. It was a semolina dessert coated in pastry with the cheapest vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. It was so full of cinnamon that it simply didn't taste good. The kind gesture as compensation unfortunately didn't make up for anything but only reinforced the bad impression. If we hadn't arrived so starving, I probably wouldn't have eaten anything more than the fries. I'm really sorry to have to write such a review, but I've never experienced 75 euros for such a bad meal. I actually love Greek food, but this was truly beyond bad. I strongly advise you to replace the chef, because this food is the reason I won't be going there again. It's a real shame, as there's a great playground for children and the nice waitress even inflated a small bouncy castle. That was a great gesture, and the children were very happy. The rest of the atmosphere on the terrace is truly uninviting. Plaster is crumbling from the walls, and the tables are covered with plastic tablecloths. I don't want to write this review to complain for no reason, but rather to give the owner the opportunity to improve in many areas. I come from the restaurant industry myself and know how annoying it is when customers leave and say everything was fine, even though they're dissatisfied and advise everyone they know not to eat there. All I can say is, it's the food. Use the feedback and please send the chef to vocational school in Bad Überkingen.

Room very clean staff very friendly

The interior is very comfortably furnished, and there are also some outdoor seating areas, which are well shaded, although of course a bit noisy due to the street. Our chosen breakfast (the French one) was delicious and absolutely sufficient—we actually couldn't finish it all. The owner was very friendly—we had absolutely no complaints about the service and will definitely come back. Finally, we also have to try the waffles; they just couldn't fit in today, no matter how hard we tried 😉 Unfortunately, card payments aren't accepted, which is the only downside in my opinion at the moment.

Hi everyone, we ate together with the whole family and relatives today. You absolutely have to eat here. The service was so friendly, polite, welcoming, and fast. The ambiance and decor were really lovely. The food was delicious—a fantastic buffet, the salad was delicious and freshly prepared, the schnitzel, etc. It was warm, fresh, and so delicious—everything was great. You have to go. We'll definitely be back. 👍👍👍👍

The food was really good but the fries were a disaster. I think they had only been through the fryer briefly as they were missing the crunch. What a shame.
