LEUCHTENDROTER in Frankfurt am Main

Nice service, good food, delicious wines and a lively, pleasant atmosphere that suits a wide audience!

Delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere with truly wonderful hosts. You'll immediately feel at home. The only minor drawback: the tables could be a bit larger...

Stylish interior, excellent and attentive service, good acoustics, and the menu was impeccable. Thank you.

We were here for Sunday breakfast/brunch. The food was very varied and delicious, the staff very friendly, and the price, in my opinion, was more than fair. The only thing was the latte, which wasn't hot enough for my taste. But that doesn't detract from the good rating, and I'd mention it when ordering. We'll definitely be back.

The 9-course menu was a magnificent taste experience. A feast for the eyes, too. My highlight was the nori-wrapped leek in garlic sauce, which exploded on the tongue. And of course, the dessert selections. I'll be back!

Very tasty and great vegan selection with high quality! 😎

Super delicious food, everything fresh and homemade. Relaxed atmosphere and nice staff!

Great menu / surprising tastes / nice place for a long and sociable evening / exciting bar in the same building

We wanted to spend a relaxing evening here for the three of us. The evening was overall pleasant, the service was excellent, unfortunately I'm a bit disappointed with the food. My last visits (most recently on October 24) were always excellent with great, creative and super tasty courses. Unfortunately, something seems to have changed in the kitchen. The individual gears weren't outstanding, they lacked a certain kick and visually (illustration) it wasn't that great either. The main courses in particular were uncreative and too much in quantity. The spring sun at the end was somehow out of place and unnecessary. Overall, it was still a nice evening, but Leuchtendroter has unfortunately declined (except for the service, which is still perfect).

Nice atmosphere, very attentive service. Very good food, nice combinations. Was fun!

I can only speak for the breakfast, which unfortunately I didn't like. The selection consisted of croissants, a handful of dips and yoghurt with fruit, as well as filter coffee. Maybe my expectations were too high, but this can be done better.

It was wonderful - everything was perfectly coordinated: from the food to the drinks to the ambience. The very courteous and attentive service rounded off our pleasant evening

Absolutely recommended! After years in Frankfurt, we finally managed to stop here - and it was worth it. The food is excellent, the atmosphere is pleasant and the prices are completely reasonable for a business lunch. We'll definitely be back!

Very tasty vegan food. The price is expensive, but the quality is also good. Beautifully prepared and tasteful. Very nice service. Anyone who can spend around 40-50 euros per person on a meal will get a tasteful experience here. Recommendation.

We celebrated our anniversary at Leuchtendroter last week, and it was an unforgettable experience! This was our third time enjoying their tasting menu, and I strongly recommend going for it, even though they also offer an à la carte option. The entire menu is vegan, but the flavors are beyond impressive. Their wine selection is extensive, and the cocktails are truly out of this world. One thing that never changes is the exceptional service—always flawless! A special highlight is their homemade vodka, which is already waiting for you at the table. Always recommended! 🍷✨

very good service, delicious lunch

I'm not vegan, but with this kind of food you don't miss meat or dairy products. Everything was very, very tasty, fresh and innovative and very nice service!

Says it's open until 16.00 but it's not, only for a coffee. Typical lack of information, don't rely

Update: I also communicated my criticism again by email, which was received and explained in a very friendly manner. I was also offered an aperitif on the house for the next time, which I found to be a very nice gesture! They really make an effort here! Service was very nice and accommodating, I also really liked the ambience. However, my expectations regarding the food were not entirely met - we had the 3-course menu and unfortunately it tasted almost bland, which was a shame because the composition of the menu itself was very nice. In addition, the presentation of the food didn't look quite as nice. Since it's certainly not for nothing that the Leuchtendroter has such good reviews, we'll give it another chance, but probably in the evening :-)

I've probably been there 10 times and it's always an experience. The staff is super attentive, the atmosphere is great and the food is always a surprise with consistently good quality. Animal cruelty-free fine dining par excellence!

It was our first time at LEUCHTENDROTER - unfortunately we were a bit disappointed overall. The ambience, the welcome on site and the initial drinks advice were extremely good. We were also very satisfied with the first courses of the 10-course menu. Unfortunately, this level could not be maintained afterwards. The evaluation of the individual dishes is certainly very subjective. Unfortunately, these were often a bit too one-dimensional and simple for us. Unfortunately, the special twist or the special taste experience was often missing. The portions are sometimes quite generous even for a 10-course meal. What was much more serious, however, was that the time intervals between courses unfortunately varied greatly. While some courses arrived at the same time or a few minutes in a row, other dishes sometimes had to wait 45 minutes. We were told that we were (unfortunately) there on the first day of the new card and that's why there were these waiting times etc. Not ideal, but that would have been manageable if attentive service had at least ensured a refill of drinks. However, both of our glasses remained empty for over 2 hours and were not cleared away. This was simply ignored, which we found very unfortunate. The empty plates were also cleared away by the service in the meantime without asking. That also really irritated us. The dessert, in turn, stood empty in front of us for a good quarter of an hour. We also had to aggressively demand that we were allowed to pay because there was simply no more service coming to our table. We will still visit LEUCHTENDROTER again because we would like to know whether this was a one-off mistake. We generally think the ambience and the option of a vegan 10-course menu, as well as a great drinks menu, are great. A note at the end: I found it particularly unfortunate that I had made a special phone call in advance to say that it was my friend's birthday that day and that we should perhaps present her with a small gift at the dessert, such as a small candle, etc. This was also confirmed and noted by the nice gentleman on the phone. When we got there it was also noted that it was obviously her birthday because I had a present for her. She was also congratulated at the welcome. Unfortunately, the attention discussed was completely absent. Too bad.

My absolute favorite restaurant, far and wide. So tasty, high quality and therefore extremely digestible. Simply great, everything as requested and more🤩❣️

wonderfully balanced and delicious vegan lunch menu. Great ambience and excellent service.

As always wonderful. Delicious, great atmosphere, great service.

A bright red highlight of vegan fine dining cuisine! My visit to Leuchtendroter was an absolute experience – perfect from start to finish. The restaurant combines a stylish ambience with exceptional hospitality, and you can feel the attention to detail in every moment. The 10-course menu was simply magnificent. Each course surprised with sophisticated flavors, artful arrangements and a perfect balance of creativity and taste. Here it is shown that vegan cuisine can not only keep up, but also set culinary standards. Every bite was a delight that celebrated the diversity of plant-based ingredients at the highest level. The hotel is also a real oasis of well-being. The rooms are modern, stylish and invite you to relax. The vegan breakfast in the morning continues the culinary experience seamlessly - fresh, varied and simply delicious. Leuchtendroter is much more than a restaurant – it is a place where enjoyment, sustainability and hospitality harmonize perfectly. An absolute must for anyone who wants to experience vegan cuisine at its best. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

We had a wonderful evening at Leuchtendroter. The ambience and the food were very special and every course had its special highlight. We would be happy to come back.

WOW, great serve from the whole team! The ambience is great anyway, the service is first class and yet totally personal and relaxed, the food is sensational and very varied, a real variety of flavors. An absolute recommendation for a unique evening!

A wonderful atmosphere with a wonderful team and extremely good food. It's unbelievable how much taste and sophistication you can conjure up from vegan ingredients.

Everything is great! Great service - great food

It was our first time for lunch at Leuchtendroter and I would visit again at any time. For €25 we were served a high-quality 3-course meal. I've never had such good pumpkin soup! The main course was also very tasty - I can definitely recommend the green sauce. We also really enjoyed the chocolate mousse at the end! The service was always super friendly and accommodating, but never intrusive or “over the top”. This is exactly what I expect from a perfect restaurant visit!

Always a special kind of experience! And I was particularly careful about my allergies! I love this place and everyone and everything that makes it so ❤️!

Service was the best we ever had in Frankfurt! Markus was exceptionally good. He helped us with the selection of food and wine. Many thanks we're soon back again!

Very nice restaurant and great outdoor area. The service was very pleasant and courteous. The restaurant is highly recommended as a special experience. Many of the dishes on our menu were fried or very fatty, but tasted very tasty. You could drink a small bottle of vodka with the meal on the house, which we have never experienced before.

Amazing experience, the Menu option was delicious, food is really well prepared, and the waitress explained in detail every dish.

The best vegan breakfast I've had in a long time. Filter coffee included is just right for me

The evening at Leuchtendroter was a real highlight. Excellent service, great food and a very nice atmosphere. Zack, 4 hours had passed unnoticed and the vegan 10-course menu was varied and even convinced my omnivore friend. We'll be back :)

The food is of super high quality and is explained in detail. It's really a great taste experience and highly recommended. Dogs are also very welcome. The only drawback is the portion size with the recommended “sharing principle”. For a few dishes, it could have been more generous and much difficult to share the portion. All in all, we were very satisfied and will definitely come back!

A lovely evening in a great ambience with very good vegan dishes. We also received great advice when choosing wine until we found something that all five of us approved of :)

If I could, I'd give several extra stars just for service. We had the most pleasant evening at leuchtendroter. The staff was welcoming and warm from the first interaction, putting a personal - and personable - touch on the dinner. The food is extraordinary as well, even though there were clear favourites amongst the 10 (+2) courses. The drinks are refreshing if weak, which is more than compensated for, considering there is a complimentary bottle of vodka included in the experience. In short, we'll be back (once there are new items on the menu).

A nice restaurant, a nice atmosphere, but there is always a lack of supplies at brunch. We were there for the second time and it was like the first time. At 10 a.m. the buffet was full to the brim, but at 10:30 a.m. the situation was already serious and you were looking at quite a few empty bowls. I couldn't tell when the replenishment came. It's a shame, but we won't dare make a third attempt.

I can only recommend the restaurant. The 10 course menu has it all. We really enjoyed being there. The waiters were really friendly and told us something about each course. There was also good wine and a really good ambience. It was worth every euro to me.

We experienced very friendly service at a business lunch, the food was outstanding and the atmosphere was right: lots of “young professionals” and “urban people”.

Been there several times. Always absolutely delicious, just something different and really an experience even for non-vegans. It's nice to share individual courses (if you want that). Great ambience. Great service.

A great evening, great food, great service and a must have experience

We had a great evening at Leuchtendroter. Nice atmosphere, very good service and very tasty vegan food. We felt very comfortable. We'll definitely be back.

Nice breakfast buffet, completely vegan and very nice employees

Wonderful! Service, food, lunch very good!

Just great from start to finish! The food is incredibly tasty and varied and the service is very personal.

An absolutely wonderful evening! Food, service and ambience were great! Definitely recommended :)

Amazing food, nice atmosphere. However, the service person gave us the feeling we were difficult and a nuisance to deal with. Service is such a big part of the experience especially if you intend to eat for a few hours and if you feel you're treated unfairly, it just ruins the night. Wouldn't go there again.

The 10-course menu was truly an experience! It's impressive what combinations were conjured up. The service was also very attentive and courteous. We are happy to recommend the restaurant!

Always great and delicious! Thank you very much

Their lunch special is really affordable with really good quality. Great vegan option for lunch.

Great food, great service, tasteful ambience, every piece of vegetables has an intense taste

Great service and a pleasant atmosphere. Special requests were also well addressed. I think it's great that there are now some vegan star restaurants in Frankfurt. The portions of the 10-course menu are tiny, but at some point you will actually get full. Unfortunately, I found the taste to be anything but special. Unfortunately, crusty bread with margarine and carrot 🥕 with a little dressing doesn't convince me. It was okay, but not something I would go back for. That was a bit of a shame, but it was still a great experience.

From start to finish it was just perfect. Super nice, fast and friendly service. A chair was immediately brought to us (without asking) for our small, old dog so that she didn't have to lie on the floor (of course we put a blanket underneath). The food was also fantastic, every course was new. Very good quality for the price and absolutely sufficient even for someone who is very hungry. We love coming back again and again.

Visiting this restaurant was a great experience. The food is very good and what I would like to particularly emphasize is that the ingredients chosen create new creations and taste experiences. There is no attempt to imitate meat or fish dishes. I would also like to mention the very friendly and courteous service - we felt completely comfortable 👍🏼

Worth every penny! Great service and every course was a taste experience. Everything is delicious and the place is really cozy. We were also able to bring our dog - there was even a course for him (small carrot snacks 👍🏻

Very nice and cozy location. Friendly reception. Comprehensive explanation of the menu flow. Starting with the great house cocktail until the sweet end, a real revelation of flavors. Each course was explained in detail when served. The drinks menu also leaves nothing to be desired. Our first time in a vegan restaurant and it certainly won't be our last time here. Thank you for this great evening!

Superbly prepared dishes, creatively different and always delicious. The service is always good and the atmosphere is also very pleasant. A top address in Frankfurt!

Just a little too dark in the restaurant for my taste.

Been there for dinner for the fourth time. Nothing has been lost in terms of creativity or quality. The visit to the restaurant is worth the money to me. You don't do it every day either. Service top, food varied and more than sufficient. Definitely caters to all senses and needs. Keep it up!

We chose the 10-course menu and it was truly an absolute experience. The atmosphere was unique, from the furnishings, music to the lighting concept, everything was outstanding. The service was very nice and accommodating. I thought it was particularly great that we were first told something about the overall concept and then about each course. You really noticed how much passion there was behind it! The food was very special, the creations were really something new. Still, I would have liked a little more food. Personally, after a 10-course meal, I really want to be 100% full :-) Be sure to try the vodka on the table to neutralize between courses!

It was a pleasure. Every dish is a perfect composition, the service is incredibly friendly and the atmosphere is cozy and chic. We always enjoy coming back

We were here for the first time and loved it. We'd love to come back 🌅

All vegan breakfast buffet - I am in heaven !!!

We were at the LR on Friday the 13th for our wedding anniversary - and only because the fantastic team at this store was able to organize a place for us in the guest room, which was actually fully booked! For that alone we are incredibly grateful! The evening itself was a dream for us: great ambience, incredibly nice, attentive and fast service and a 10-course menu that completely picked up both of them. Portions that fill you up, a great selection of drinks - also non-alcoholic. We were simply spoiled from start to finish - thank you for that! This morning we treated ourselves a second time and went back for breakfast. Great selection of different spreads, granola, croissants, crusty bread, fruit, vegetables, coffee and juices - here again we didn't miss anything. The prices at Leuchtendroter are more than fair - we honestly think it's crazy how much people get for their money here. We felt that you love what you're doing - and that's always amazing! Just don't stop, you're amazing! See you, for sure 🖤 S+Y

I think this might be my favourite restarurant in all the world. I was recently at a conference in Regensburg, travelling by train. I literally planned my travel around visiting LEUCHTENDROTER. It's that good.

Great food, worth it. Stylish seating, but a bit cramped and not very comfortable for 2 hours

We were here for a special date and had the 10 course menu for €80 per person. Despite all the variety, it's not even noticeable that the dishes are all purely vegan! The atmosphere is calm and upscale without being aloof. You're on your first name and it's comfortable. Schedule time! We were there for 3 hours for the 10 courses...

It was a great evening with great service and fantastic and exceptional food. Also very great was the wine discovery on the recommendation of the sommelier. Thank you for the very nice and special evening!

It was a real joy so good to be able to enjoy vegan food, In a relaxed atmosphere with a really attentive, highly trained service. Thank you very much for that, we would love to come back.

Wir hatten das Menü bestellt und jeder Gang war maximal lauwarm serviert worden. Bei diesen hohen Preisen erwarte ich neues Geschirr und neues Besteck zu jedem Gang. Ich hatte einen Wein bestellt, der mir überhaupt nicht geschmeckt hat. Ich hatte das volle Glas zurückgegeben . Dieser wurde voll berechnet . Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt in keinem Fall.

I was invited by my children to the 10-course menu. The staff was extremely friendly, described each course in detail and was very attentive the entire time (6:30 p.m. to 11:15 p.m.). The stay was wonderful. Every course was different, specially presented and super fine and tasty. The menu was an experience that won't be topped any time soon. So creative, detailed and tasty. I give top marks with full conviction. I will happily visit this fantastic vegan restaurant again on a special occasion and perhaps invite someone to eat there. My tip: Don't forget to reserve a table in good time or not at the last minute! Thank you for the wonderful evening (it was a birthday present). I would be very happy to come back.

Selection of ingredients, variety and taste are great. I eat an omnivorous diet myself. If you are convinced that vegan food is boring and always the same, you should treat your taste buds there.

Beautiful restaurant, great atmosphere, extremely courteous service and of course delicious food! You can spend a really wonderful evening here.

We were there for brunch. The service staff gave us a friendly welcome and were always attentive. The atmosphere was relaxed and nice. The music was upbeat and subtle in the background. The selection of food was completely sufficient to start the day well-fed. The overnight oats are amazing :-), very, very tasty. We'd love to come back.

Great! It was a wonderful evening. We both had the menu and were completely satisfied.

We had a great evening! The service was A1 - very nice and attentive! The 10-course menu also surprised us very positively because we don't normally live a vegan lifestyle. Very very tasty and beautifully prepared. Really a great evening - we'll definitely be back :)

Wow, I've rarely eaten such bad food. The okra beans were still hard, half of the food was cold. We had to leave halfway through the menu. Huge fanfare with little taste

A great evening, in a very nice ambience with style, with friendly people, competent staff and fantastic food of top quality and perfection. I just say wow - wow - wow! 🤩 That was fantastic and terrific! In any case, I'll be back soon and I'll be happy. Glad you exist!

Outstanding, no more words are needed.

Get pampered by this team, the service is the finest, very attentive and friendly. We chose the 8+ course menu (autumn) which was absolutely divine, beautifully prepared, use offset tweezers which was a nice experience. The ambience is inviting, a lively atmosphere and sends good vibes. The menu changes as does the season. We will be back for our next vegan adventure!

We really enjoy being there! The service staff is extremely friendly, the food is excellent!

First of all the positive, the entire staff was really great and super friendly. However, the eight-course menu was not to my taste. Unfortunately, I only enjoyed two of the eight courses. Unfortunately, the portions were also far too small for me, so I ate a full meal somewhere else afterwards. If you don't drink alcohol or sugary drinks, you're out of luck - Cola Zero or something similar is unfortunately not offered.

an experience of a special kind :) you have to have it!

The food, service and ambience were a 10/10!! Definitely worth a visit.

Absolutely recommended! Great experience.

We had never eaten vegan so well before! It's fantastic what they conjure up in the kitchen and the service is also excellent!!

Dear Bright Red Team, It was a pleasure to be with you again! It's nice that you haven't forgotten me and that you manage to make me feel comfortable right away. You have such a warm nature, I really like that. My girlfriend also felt comfortable again. As usual, the food was great and the drinks were of top quality with that certain something. That's what everyone is looking for in life ;-) See you next time! @Lukas: I hope I can do it more quickly this time. Thank you. Best regards Xenia

The two of us each had the “TAKE IT ALL” menu. The “greetings from the kitchen” and the courses were served, explained and given “eating tips” by the very friendly, unobtrusive service staff. There was also the Rheingau Pinot Noir "Blanc de Noirs" from the Krone in Assmannshausen (once open and once in the glass as a second helping :-)) We liked it very much. Gladly again.

Very, very good food, great ambience and fantastic service.

There were five of us and we had the 10 course menu. The food was really tasty. Everything tasted good without exception, and you always got a little explanation about the course. Overall it was a bit much, or the bread at the beginning was very filling. We had to ask again about the drinks, but everything was fine. So overall, definitely worth a visit, also in terms of price.

I found the evening very, very nice! The food tasted extremely good (we had the menu) and especially the “tacos” were a hit. However, everything depends on the service. And it was really great! Super attentive, nice, charming. I had also stated my allergies beforehand - everyone knew about them and dealt with them very easily. Looking forward to next time!

Very tasty food. A feast for the eyes and the taste buds A visit to Leuchtendroter will remain something special as I have to keep my money together. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Food was fantastic. Service friendly, fast and competent. Ambiance cozy. Eating purely vegan but no one missed meat or dairy products. If the store isn't even on the way to a star...

We had a great time. We appreciated that the staff spoke to us in English and even a few words in French. We made a great vegan culinary discovery.

Atmospheric atmosphere. Exceptional flavors. Extremely friendly service. Filling portions. Variety of taste. Overall, probably too unpretentious for one star, but five stars from me.

Wonderful, aromatic food and wine

A smile is the shortest path between two people... unfortunately, in bright red, the paths are long. We were there for brunch. Not once did one of the employees smile at one of us, from the first 'hello' to the 'goodbye' there was simply no warmth. The music is classic and a bit dark - maybe that's why. It was more like a hardware store where the staff looks past you with a serious face and makes sure you get rid of it. The selection of food was okay, although hearty spreads alongside lentil cream and herb quark would have been really nice. That was really not enough for the bread. There was nothing surprisingly new. The tables weren't cleared for a long time, which is why at some point our own and other tables appeared chaotic. Friends had recommended us to come here, but unfortunately we were disappointed in every way and will not be coming back.
