La Paloma Tapas-Bar & Burger in Bad Soden-Salmünster

Ate the most delicious Dürüm there. Everything is homemade, simply delicious and friendliness is also very important here.

Rustic, home-style restaurant with great food! The schnitzels are the best in town! Price-performance is unbeatable and almost unbelievable these days!

Surroundings - a fountain, old von Hutten castle and a small room in front of it. We were there about an hour before opening. We thought we would reserve a table here. The door to the room gave way. Inside there is coziness and all sorts of things from great-grandma's times. A row of laid tables. At the last one a gentleman sits and reads from the large book of quotes. "Good evening, we would like to reserve a table for this evening" The gentleman is barely visible, his head down, his face covered by a cap. But he continues reading. No. "He's sleeping," I said. "Truly," said my husband. We are greeted by a “grey woolly” old dog. “Hello,” I said again and repeated the question. Nothing. The Lord sleeps deeply and blissfully. "What do we do now?" I asked. We ring a bell once, twice... Mr. Conrad wakes up, rubbing his eyes and wondering why he slept so deeply. We reserve and come back. When Mr. Conrad doesn't sleep, he goes to his workshop, which is what he calls the kitchen. There he cooks delicious things for us. We feel like we're visiting our own grandpa, simply wonderfully well looked after. In this way, he also provides the other guests with peace and comfort. We don't know if something like this exists again in the world. Dear Mr. Conrad, we wish you the best of health for many years to come so that you can run your workshop.

The ambience was, well, a bit unimaginatively done in Greek, the service was more busy with their own cell phones than taking care of the guests. The food was completely gone. The meat was just fat, the fries were half raw and the Metaxa sauce was as thin as water. I expected much more from gyros in Metaxa sauce and gratinated with cheese. This work wasn't calculated for that, otherwise one point would be too many.

Mit meiner Familie (9 Personen) haben wir an Weihnachten das Lokal aufgesucht. Mal abgesehen von der Doppelbelegung an Weihnachten kamen wir in einem riesigen Speisesaal ohne jeglichem Ambiente an. Die Massenabfertigung begann mit einer Suppe - Brühe mit einem Markklößchen - der ein paar Kräuter und oder ein wenig Gemüse Julienne sehr gut gestanden hätte, aber leider Fehlanzeige. Danach die Hauptgänge zur Wahl: sie waren lieblos angerichtet, keine Garnitur, kein Salatblatt, nichts - nur die Hauptbestandteile auf einen mittleren Teller gesetzt und serviert!? Das geht aber wirklich besser ! Das Dessert ebenfalls lieblos ohne Verzierung in kleine Gläschen geknallt :/ schade!! Das Essen war soweit in Ordnung, eine Dinge gut, andere schwammen im Fett, leider keine herausragende Qualität! Wir Frauen sind im Menü satt geworden, die Männer sind hungrig nachhause! Ein Kindermenü „Eiskönigin“ zu nennen und dann einfach nur Komponenten des Menüs zu servieren, geht leider an den Kids vorbei !! Alle Eltern mit Mädchen wissen, was ich meine... meine Tochter war enttäuscht, denn mit Eiskönigin hatte das Essen nichts zu tun und wir mussten eine Kugel Eis nachbestellen, weil Kinder keine bzw. nicht gerne Creme essen. Fazit: Preis-Leistung leider nicht konform, lieblose Massenabfertigung und kleine Portionen - schade
