Le Petit Chef - Düsseldorf in Düsseldorf

It was something completely different and we really enjoyed it; my wife gave it to me for my birthday. Highly recommended!

It was an unforgettable experience and a culinary extravaganza.

Simply magnificent, beautifully designed and all around 🤩

Quite amusing, but more hype than substance. Not enough to fill you up.

I have made a reservation at this restaurant one week before via the phone, because their web site does not allow to book for less than 2 persons. When I showed up they informed that they cannot find me in the reservations list and refused to offer me a seat. I was really disappointed with their bad service!

The food is okay, but not even remotely worth the price. The whole show is rather silly and doesn't create an appealing atmosphere. Service was very good.

We celebrated a birthday at Le Petit Chef in Düsseldorf – and it was simply extraordinary! The five-course menu was not only a culinary highlight, but also presented as an interactive experience that delighted us both. Throughout the two and a half hours, we were constantly surprised by the engaging animation and the beautifully presented courses. The relaxed atmosphere and the attentive service from the team were particularly lovely. A truly perfect evening for special occasions – we are thrilled and will definitely be back!

It was a wonderful and unforgettable experience!

A truly fantastic restaurant! The food is fresh, lovingly prepared, and full of flavor. The service is friendly and attentive, and the ambiance is cozy and inviting. Absolutely top-notch value for money—I'll definitely be back!👍🏽

The "little chef" was a bit out of focus and that detracted from the show, but the food and service were top-notch!

We really enjoyed the show. It's creative, entertaining, and fun. The menu was also delicious, with both a vegetarian option and a special menu for children. I would definitely recommend it for a special occasion. However, the total price was almost €400, which is comparable to a Michelin-starred restaurant (except the food here doesn't have a Michelin star). It was also somewhat disappointing that they charged an extra €15 for water, despite booking a wine pairing.

Excellent menu and wine pairing with a great show in an exclusive ambience.

Great event with fantastic service, fantastic entertainment, and exceptional food!

The entire event was perfectly organized, from the reception to the farewell. The food was outstanding, the projected films were a never-before-seen experience, and the service was impeccable. For me, it was an unforgettable experience that I have already recommended to many of my friends and acquaintances.

A great experience, but very expensive. The quality was acceptable for adults, but the children didn't eat half of it (the first few things were too unusual or not child-friendly, and later they were full from the pasta in the starter course and the "fries"). We would actually like to repeat it for a special occasion, but the children's menu is simply too expensive for the children to not eat half. I do have to say that they were charged for water. On the one hand, I assume that water is included when a wine pairing is included, but on the other hand, especially when soft drinks for the children are included in the menu price, they don't have to pay extra for the water. So, at this price, water wasn't even included for the children (although it's listed under soft drinks on the menu). As a result, our children drank significantly more sugary drinks than we would normally allow.

A fantastic culinary and visual experience!!! The food selection for adults was excellent, everything beautifully presented and very, very tasty. The dishes – with the exception of pasta and meat – weren't well-suited to children. Unfortunately, there was no complimentary water for the wine pairing option booked, and even for children – despite the soft drink package – water had to be ordered and paid for separately. Overall, though, highly recommended!

The food is fantastic. The ambiance is top-notch.

Le Petit Chef is a unique culinary experience that delights both young and old.

It's a creative and culinary-sophisticated dinner that playfully introduces children to a sophisticated, stylish ambiance without being boring or stuffy. And it's sure to bring a smile to adults' faces, too.

A wonderful event with great food.

The show is very good. It's a unique idea to present the food in this way. The opening introduction/explanatory remarks by a hotel/restaurant employee were somewhat disappointing; they were inaudible (too quiet).

Great idea, well executed with the little chefs from different countries. The preliminary explanations were a bit difficult to follow, as they weren't loud enough. Nevertheless, an absolute recommendation for young and old.

In summer, the terrace is a wonderful little oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of the city. The service is good, and the food and drinks are highly recommended. The interior is a bit dated and uninspiring.

Delicious food combined with entertaining entertainment. The staff was very accommodating.

It's an interesting event. Two of the selected wines were unavailable, and we were given one that was €17 more expensive.

The food was very good. The ambiance and service at the Steigenberger were as excellent as one would expect.

A unique experience with great attention to detail and outstanding food. The combination of show and food, with plenty of time, is fun and relaxing. I will be back.

Everything was great, I just wish the food was more in keeping with the entertainment. A great experience, though!

My expectations were exceeded! I'm thrilled!

We celebrated our 25th anniversary there. The dinning experience was impressive. We had a lovely memory. Thank you Le Petit Chef team

The food was just perfect :) the ambience could definitely be improved

Hello, We ate at Le Petit Chef yesterday at the Steigenberger Hotel. We had booked a wine pairing with our meal in advance. Both were good, and we had a pleasant evening. Of course, I could make a few critical comments, as I have many years of experience in the restaurant industry. But I don't have to, because the overall package was perfect. However, I have to address one point that first caught my attention today: we were charged for water, even though it was supposed to be included in the wine pairing, just like soft drinks and coffee.

The atmosphere of the dinner was very stylish, the entertainment very exciting and entertaining, and the food itself was outstanding—high quality and beautifully presented. All in all, it was an outstanding overall experience.

The experience fully met my expectations. I would particularly like to highlight the quality of the multimedia component, which exceeded my expectations. The food and service were good, as expected. It's an extraordinary and unique experience that you should definitely try at least once—and it's especially good if you're traveling with children.

The experience was very enjoyable, even though there were longer wait times at the beginning due to technical issues. In our opinion, the format also didn't fully realize its potential. A better adaptation of the dishes to the show would have been great. Furthermore, the price-performance ratio isn't entirely justified, in our opinion.

So far, everything was very good, but I have to deduct one star because the drinks at this hotel are absolutely extortionate. We paid €19.00 for a small glass of wine, and a Hugo cost exactly the same. Somehow, the price is completely out of proportion.

Le Petit Chef is a truly unique experience! Incredibly delicious food and watching the little chefs prepare the dishes make the evening truly special. Even though it's quite expensive, we highly recommend everyone visit the little chef at least once!

The food was amazing, the service was very friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was wonderful. We'll definitely be back 🥰

The atmosphere was very pleasant and the food was really good. And considering it was also a birthday surprise, it was a truly wonderful experience overall, full of fun, imagination, and delicious dishes. Thank you very much, we would love to come back.

A unique experience. A special evening for me and my wife. Creative and varied. Exquisite and delicious. A feast for the palate and the senses

It was a special experience. We enjoyed the food very much. We'll definitely be back again.

We received a very warm welcome as soon as we walked in. Even though we didn't order any additional drinks or anything else (because we were very satisfied with the wine pairing, which was a great match for the meal), and we were expecting a miracle from the kitchen at short notice due to an intolerance, the service was more than accommodating and genuinely tried to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The whole experience, with the table as a screen, was very entertaining and well-integrated (the children at the table behind us seemed to be having a lot of fun). The five courses were magnificent, with intense flavors and delicious ingredients, without over-seasoning the food. Dreamy mussels, tender meat, and delicious vegetables. But the dessert exceeded all expectations, and the kitchen surprisingly performed the expected miracle. Instead of simply giving me a different version of the planned dessert because of my rudeness, or leaving me hanging, the kitchen really went above and beyond and actually made me a heavenly crème brûlée, with fresh raspberries and little biscuits that melted in my mouth like cotton candy. I really wasn't expecting that. All in all, a successful evening. It wasn't cheap, of course, but it's not something you do every day. We won't soon forget the evening and will definitely do it again. A tip wasn't expected, but it was all the more welcome. Thanks to the service and the team.

The only positive thing is the show. The rest is just a rip-off. :(

An unforgettable experience with great food and performance

It was a birthday present for our daughter. As an 11-year-old, she's a true reflection of how boring or entertaining something can be. She followed everything with great curiosity and enjoyment. As a young vegetarian, she enjoyed eating her first piece of meat in months. Many thanks to the team in front of and behind the scenes.

An original event with a combination of 3D animation and culinary delights - the price level, however, is very ambitious.

Overall, it was a lovely evening and an interesting experience, but I don't think the price is justified at all. If it cost €100 per person, I could recommend it, but not at the current Düsseldorf price.

The show was fantastic, and so was the food at the Steigenberger Düsseldorf. A great event, even if it's a bit more expensive. It's worth it.

It was a real experience for us, the event and the service with its staff we really enjoyed and the food was excellent... thank you for the lovely evening

Delicious food in a beautiful setting, paired with a witty, innovative presentation concept. We also had a birthday cake for the occasion, making it an all-around wonderful evening for all of us.

It was a truly magical evening with the little chef and his colleagues from all over the world... My daughter recommended "Le Petit Chef" to me, and I can wholeheartedly recommend it... The courses were all excellently prepared, and the service was very friendly and competent, but that wasn't the focus for us this time. The entire virtual event surrounding the "preparation" of the menu, each course a new story, a new entry in the culinary competition. Each course prepared with a pretty, lively scene on the tablecloth, accompanied by appropriate music... The Spanish chef's waving fields of corn and the Japanese competitor's koi pond are particularly memorable for us, and now, when we stand by a field blown by the wind, our thoughts always return to that evening. We remember them fondly. We celebrated a 70th birthday and our 44th wedding anniversary that evening. We had booked the "little surprise" and were expecting a small decorated muffin. We were surprised when the little surprise turned out to be a rather large, delicious chocolate mousse cake, even labeled to match our occasions... It was truly a very special surprise, and thank you again for that. We left the restaurant that evening feeling exhilarated and happy; you couldn't ask for more from a night out... and, as mentioned, the impressions still stay with us today... Certainly not the cheapest way to spend an evening, but worth every single cent, truly priceless...

It was truly something very special. Fantastic food, great wine pairing, and very attentive, friendly service. The animations are sweet and immerse the table in a little other world... I definitely recommend it 👍👍👍

It was a nice experience, something different, but not one I'd want to repeat. The food was good, but not necessarily worth the price. The service was poor, especially considering the location. I had hoped for more.

10/10 food, very nice event - but too expensive!!!

The show itself is cute and nice. That is a unique experience that might be worth the price for some. If you count in the food and the quality compared to what you pay then it's not the best alternative. The food was lacking a bit of flavor although well prepared and the portion size very decent. Overall nice but factor in the price and the atmosphere then it's not worth it. When the dinner is over they had one waiter that took payments from all tables, which means that you feel like just sitting and waiting to be allowed to leave.

The best experience ever. The food was so delicious and well prepared. Great staff and an awesome place o have the most delicious pasta or salad for lunch.

The first time was a great experience and a culinary delight. The second time was disappointing because the food arrived very late and there was a disturbance in the hall. We also had 2 disruptive factors in the hall: two young ladies sitting directly at the next table who were passed by an education. Cell phone, loud conversations and legs on the table... it's crazy that none of the waiters threw them out. Apparently they didn't have to pay anything for the tickets themselves. Disrespectful.

A culinary and visual highlight. Very attentive staff and the dishes were a feast for the palate.

The food is really high quality and excellently prepared. The experience with the “little chef” is very amusing and makes it what it is. :-)

The experience was great. My wife was thrilled with the food as well as the show and ambience. Happy wife happy life.

A fantastic evening with excellent food and exceptional entertainment.

It was a great experience. We laughed a lot and it was delicious. The service was top. The only thing you have to worry about is the price of the drinks and just enjoy it

A real experience! Great presentation and something very special. Unfortunately, there were major delays in both food and drinks. There was one experienced waiter and otherwise only beginners, which limited the experience somewhat.

It was a great experience and a perfectly prepared menu ♥️

An all-round successful evening. We liked it very much. The evening was entertaining and entertaining, and the food was delicious.

Very good food and great entertainment!

The food was fantastic! However, in the overall context of the price, it is also very expensive and of less value due to the animation character. 4/5

The food is great and you have a few funny moments through the show!

An extraordinary idea that was implemented perfectly. The projections were varied and funny, the food was excellent and the proceedings were consistent.

A wonderful evening, great experience! The food and the films weren't perfectly coordinated, but they were incredibly tasty.

Both the food and the service were excellent. The whole ambience was extraordinary and definitely worth a visit!

Really something different. Very good food with unprecedented entertainment. Great for families. The ambience was also great, but the event wasn't that well attended, which then took away some of the atmosphere.

Very nicely done, entertaining and an excellent menu. Was a great experience.

It was just a great experience and the wine pairing was definitely worth the money.

Dinner at "Le Petit Chef" is a unique experience that is a feast for both the palate and the eyes. The combination of delicious food and impressive 3D animation creates an atmosphere that you won't soon forget. The dishes are carefully prepared and offer a wonderful variety of flavors. Each dish is presented with great attention to detail, making the meal a real pleasure. The animation, which shows the little chef preparing the dishes, brings a playful touch to the evening and provides a lot of entertainment. The service is friendly and attentive, which makes the entire experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, ideal for a special evening with friends or family. Overall, “Le Petit Chef” is a recommended choice for anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. It's not just a meal, but a little journey through the world of cuisine that shouldn't be missed!

The show is funny and very amusing. The matching food is exciting and rounds off the evening's story well. A dinner that not everyone has and is welcome to experience. Since we didn't have a voucher, we were allowed to pay the full price, which is already very demanding. But then the show pulls it out again. Still nothing for every week. We stayed in Düsseldorf's Steigenberger Hotel. The ambience of the show room there is more reminiscent of a dining room on the Titanic. Certainly anything but modern. Even the armchairs were hardly movable because of their weight; something like that was built and used more around the 1940s. You could say that the old paint is gone, but it's still somehow interesting here.

A unique experience - both culinary and visual. It's not boring for a second. We have been there three times now and will be back for the fourth time!

It was a really nice evening at the Steigenberger Düsseldorf. The service, projection and food was great.👍

An extraordinary show with excellent food in an absolute top address in Düsseldorf. An all around lovely evening.

We ate very well and the Petit Chef show was really great.

Everything went well and was a great experience

Very tasty food, unique experience and great atmosphere. Of course, it's not exactly cheap in terms of price.

Super delicious food and excellent ambience

A pleasant evening! Intended as a birthday present for my 87 year old mother, who also really liked it. Can be recommended.

Venue is 👍👍👍👍👍 Food is amazing Entertainment is superb❤❤❤❤❤

I think the little boss is cute and I think it's nice to be able to offer something new and not just standard dinner. I thought it was funny and I really enjoyed it. The staff was very friendly, the food was great!

An extraordinary experience of how to prepare dinner and serve it to the guest

Very good and tasty but also really expensive.

It was nice. Unfortunately, the animations in the videos I saw looked much more graphic.

The whole event was entertaining and the waiters took excellent care of us

Extraordinary experience to experience food differently - gladly again 😊

We have already been to the Steigenberger Le petit Chef twice to see or eat. Both shows were great. It was very pleasant that it was never full, so there was no noise or cafeteria feeling. Waiters always very attentive and the animation with the food always transitions perfectly. Of course the food was always great. We would immediately book another film in Düsseldorf.

An absolute dream for the eyes, nose and palate! Everyone MUST experience this once.

It was wonderful to watch the little chefs and enjoy an excellent meal. I will definitely always remember it fondly

The experience was great and perfect for children too.

Unfortunately disappointing and not recommended Unfortunately, our visit to le Petit Chef in Düsseldorf at the Steigenberger was a big disappointment. Despite a hefty price of €811 for four people, the quality left something to be desired in many areas. The food was served cold, which is absolutely unacceptable for a restaurant of this price range. The lactose-free version was particularly disappointing: while the other guests received dessert, I was carelessly served three scoops of sorbet. The difference also became clear at the final chocolate service: everyone got chocolates, but I got half a strawberry, a raspberry and a blackberry - a disproportionate and loveless offer. The ambience also didn't contribute to the feel-good atmosphere. The seat with a view of the hallway and a jacket rack was not very inviting. The service seemed cold and emotionless, as if the employees had no joy in their work. What was particularly irritating was the animation on offer, which was more geared towards children and seemed inappropriate in a 5-star hotel with an inappropriate sound concept. All in all, our visit to this restaurant was a disappointment. For the price we would have expected much more - in service, quality and ambience. Unfortunately we cannot recommend the restaurant

Great idea, terrible implementation. It's absolutely not worth the price. It's a two-hour dinner, of which exactly 12 minutes are entertainment. That's it. Each course is introduced by a small animated chef, but this mini animation lasts no longer than 3 minutes. During the meal the projection remains, but nothing happens anymore. No stories are told. No jokes - in short: you stay far below your possibilities. The only nice thing about the evening was my children's friends. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, really anyone. Watch the videos and save the money. As soon as Disney or an American company addresses this issue, things will be fine. Until then, go to the cinema or stream a nice cartoon, order something to eat or go out for a nice meal afterwards. The sound blares from the projector's cheap speakers. What's also really cheap is that the music runs on a continuous loop, repeating a song over and over again. For the money, eating isn't fun either. The beef fillet tasted like it came from a steakhouse and the elegance was missing for the price.

Ok but just too expensive for almost 400€ for 2 people.!!

The food was good but rather average. We found the "show" rather cheesy - perhaps only for children. We found the price for the evening (€370 for 2 people) overpriced. The drinks prices are cheeky: bottle of water €15, cappuccino €8.50, wheat beer €10.50. We will not recommend it.

Negative reviews are deleted here under the pretext of slander! That should be enough information for anyone interested.
