Luisenhof, Dresden in Dresden

Very busy and a bit noisy on weekends. The food is excellent and the service is very friendly. The terrace offers a great view of the city.

Nicely located with great views. Service was top notch, food ok.

Great ambience and everything first class!!!!!

Luisenstrasse is an upscale address in Dresden with wonderful views. There is plenty of space in the restaurant and large groups can also be accommodated. Pre-ordering is highly recommended. There is a play area, children's chairs and children's toilets. Unfortunately there is only a changing table in the women's toilet.

We were there on December 6th, 2024 as a small wedding party. It was fantastic again: friendly high 10, very child-friendly, very high quality food. THANKS

A restaurant with a very nice atmosphere. Unfortunately, the quality of the food is rather mediocre and since it was very full, the service staff rarely came by.

Great restaurant ambience, but that's it. The quality of the food and service have significant potential for improvement. A family friend and we gave the Luisenhof a second chance, but unfortunately it wasn't used. We won't be coming back!

Great location and very nice employees and boss

We had brunch and it was delicious. The only thing that was a shame was that the Actimel was always empty so quickly and wasn't refilled. Overall it was still very nice.

Food was okay, unfortunately nothing more (anymore). Allergens not identified correctly. That shouldn't happen in a house like this. The view is of course gigantic. Also some vegan and vegetarian dishes to choose from.

We were super satisfied, drinks were great, food was great, children could play and next time we will be there for lunch so we can still enjoy the great view.

After being very disappointed at the reopening, we were able to convince ourselves again on Saturday for my 40th birthday. Food and ambience were perfect. But what we were most happy about was our great waitress, Ms. Pfeiffer. She does her job with passion. Thank you!

Dessert great, coffee above average, service very nice

Very, very beautiful, a gigantic view and the food is delicious. Prices are completely reasonable and the service is great.

My grandchildren felt comfortable, as did we. There is a super nice play area with great toys and a view for small and large children🤩😅

On the balcony in Dresden. Recommended in every respect.

Yesterday we went to the Louisenhof for Martin's whole meal. Unfortunately our reservation had been forgotten, but we still managed to get a spot. Unfortunately the food wasn't worth much. The meat was tough and hard, dumplings and vegetables were okay.

Very unfortunate. We were part of a registered 60th birthday birth party. A service fee per person had to be paid in advance for a special table setting. When we arrived, the special request was forgotten. Instead of formally apologizing, the lady took care of putting on the tablecloths including 2 candlesticks in an extremely grumpy manner. The restaurant was set up for the evening, tables were moved, etc. It wasn't a comfortable atmosphere and there wasn't really time for us, even though there were hardly any other guests there at the time. One might have expected a glass of champagne or something. The birthday child came especially to spend the afternoon at the much-praised Luisenhof.

Wir waren zur Lions Veranstaltung am 15.11.24 bei ihnen zu Gast. Leider sind wir vom Essen sehr enttäuscht. Die Teller waren viel zu klein für die Gänsekeule und die Beilagen Die Gänsekeule war auf dem Rotkohl, darunter etwas Soße und 2 Klöße. Man mußte die Klöße trocken essen, weil man nicht an die Soße kann. Der Rotkohl schmeckte überhaupt nicht. Es gab auch keine Teller, wo man die Knochen legen konnte. Für diesen Preis kann man nur sagen, es war völlig überteuert.

Nicht zu empfehlen. Die Reservierung am 12.11.2023 wurde vergessen und wir mussten warten, bis man dann doch einen Tisch gefunden hat. Das Martinsgansmenü zog sich über mehr als 3 h hin, obwohl man das Aktionsmenü doch gut vorbereiten kann. Allein bis zur Bestellung und zum ersten Getränk verstrich fast eine Stunde. Die a-la-carte-Gäste an den Nachbartischen waren da schon lange fertig. Die Mitarbeiter jammerten, dass zu viel los sei. Der Service ist scheinbar überfordert. Das Ambiente ist für gehobene Gastronomie eher fragwürdig: Kunststofftische, keine Tischdecken (nur kleine Tischläufer), Papierservietten, viel harte Oberflächen mit entsprechendem Geräuschpegel. Wer das Kantinenmilieu mag, ok, dann gehört das Restaurant eben in diese Kategorie. Das Essen war Mittelmaß, die Suppe nicht richtig warm. Wir hatten es beide anschließend äußerst eilig zur Toilette, was sehr stark auf die Verwendung industrieller Vorprodukte schließen lässt. Da sind wir regelmäßig empfindlich. Die Googlerezension wurde vom Inhaber mit der Behauptung "Verleumdung" entfernt. So viel zum Aspekt Fehlerkultur im Unternehmen.

We were there in a larger group. Went up by cable car. We had a wonderful evening at the Luisenhof, good service and great conversations at the table. Everyone enjoyed the food very much, typically Saxon and home-style. In addition, the price-performance ratio was very good!

It was a very, very nice evening. Very nice and friendly staff. From what I could eat, it was very tasty. Unfortunately, “it was addressed to ME” too quickly. But yeah... But the service apologized for it. All in all, it was a very nice evening. The price is appropriate for these quantities. Thank you and gladly again.

Wir waren heute , seit langem wiedereinmal hier . Zum Kaffee u Torte . Die Wartezeit , bis überhaupt mal eine Bedienung kam , war sehr lange . Sie waren auch nicht gerade willig ,was zu machen . Die Tische wurden auch nur sehr zäh abgeräumt. Was uns aber überhaupt nicht gefallen hat …. Das Hunde in das Restaurant kamen . Wie kann ich das als Restaurantleiter zulassen ? Wo ist da die Hygiene? Unmöglich , den anderen Gästen gegenüber u eigentlich garnicht zulässig ( wohlgemerkt… große Hunde ). Kurz u gut , die Torte hat geschmeckt … aber …den nächsten Besuch werden wir uns überlegen …… Schade …. Um so ein Haus mit toller Lage u Aussicht …..

On November 9th for St. Martin's goose dinner, once again great! Food and service were great!

Mit einer großen Gruppe (ca. 20 Personen) mit Reservierung von 12:00 Uhr bis 14:00 Uhr an einem Samstag hergekommen. 12:45 Uhr wurden dann unsere Bestellungen aufgenommen. 14:00 Uhr hatten wir zwar die Vorspeisen (3 Personen hatten eine bestellt), aber immer noch keine Hauptgerichte. Auch die Kinder nicht. 13:30 Uhr hatten wir das Personal auf unsere Situation hingewiesen, 14:00 Uhr dann die Restaurantleitung kommen lassen. Diese reagierte pampig auf unseren Hinweis: „Naja sie hatten auch Vorspeisen“ und „Na wenn wir jetzt noch weiter reden, kann ich nicht in der Küche nachfragen!“ … von einer Entschuldigung keine Spur. 14:12 Uhr war dann das Essen da. Die Speisen waren in Ordnung, der Preis rechtfertigt sich eher über die Lage als die Qualität der Küche. Die Restaurantleitung sahen wir nicht wieder, auch wenn sie meinte, wir würden später nochmal sprechen. Knapp 30 min, nachdem wir mit dem Essen fertig waren haben wir uns einen Kellner zum bezahlen organisiert. Zu dem Zeitpunkt waren immer noch nicht alle Teller abgeräumt.

Greeted personally by the boss and assigned a table that was reserved in advance. Furthermore, perfectly served and looked after by the waitresses and waiters. And last but not least, the perfect kitchen should be mentioned. I had a tomato soup as a starter and a whole dish as a main course, which was simply delicious. Your house will definitely see us again. Now I had almost forgotten the beautiful ambience and the unique view over Dresden. All in all a successful evening. Thanks to the whole team for the wonderful hours.

Always worth a visit with this view over the city and the nice service today with delicious cakes for coffee.

What can I say about the Luisenhof, it's simply a great excursion, gastronomy, a beautiful view over Dresden from the outside terrace, which is shaded by plane trees, it's just wonderful, the beer tastes good, the coffee is delicious, the food is also good I can only recommend it at the entrance area There are steps to the top but there is also the possibility 10 meters further on for people with walking difficulties to take the elevator up. If you ring the doorbell the door opens then you are guided to the elevator and then you follow above. And you arrive directly at the top of the restaurant. Look at the pictures, such a great view.

Very nice and decent environment. Everything is clean and the service is very nice. The decoration, especially in front of the toilets, is very attractive and beautiful for me.

I gave each category 5 stars, which is the quickest way and is also accurate. We also made reservations, the restaurant has 260 seats and almost all of them were occupied. The view from Dresden's balcony Looking at the Blaue Wunder and Blasewitz is something special.

The brunch was really nice. We were able to experience a successful family celebration in a wonderful atmosphere.

Great place to have food snacks drinks. This has a good view from top to see the Loschwitz Bridge and the Elbe River and the Dresden city. Amazing place. I ordered a fresh juice and chocolate pastry.

Were here today for Sunday brunch. We were very satisfied. The food selection was very varied and everything was constantly replenished. A special thank you at this point to the chef, who explained to us very patiently and with a high level of expertise about vegetarian options. We felt very well looked after. Everything was delicious. Thank you !

Addition January 28, 2024: Happy without end! Caught parking space in front of the door. Tastiest bowl on earth! Man happy with Ossi cards ❤️🥰 Thank you very much. We love it here 😁💃 January 2023: We were a bit unlucky today because we didn't get the promised table by the window, even though there were enough free ones and people who came after us without a reservation were seated directly at the window. The service was also a bit unpleasant, as the lady constantly yelled at the trainees in our presence. Last but not least, the food took forever - even though we were the only ones who still had lunch. But in terms of taste it was a poem 👌💃 I never actually mention the cobwebs on the ceiling lamp, but today they just fit in with the not-so-well-rounded visit to your place. Too bad

Went for St. Martin's goose dinner. It was very tasty. Very friendly and attentive staff. An all-round successful visit. Highly recommended.

Wir sind extrem enttäuscht und werden so schnell dieses Lokal nicht mehr besuchen. Nach der Ankunft wurden wir mit 3 Erwachsenen und 1 Kleinkind mit Reservierung nicht gegrüßt. Im kalten, zugigen Bahnhofsambiente mussten wir die Kellner dann nach Ewigkeiten selbst nach den Karten fragen. Diese kamen dann, Bestellung und das Bringen der Speisen klappte auch. Das Gänsemenue für 32,50€ hat leider nicht geschmeckt, das Fleisch war trocken(alt) und die Beilagen nicht gut. Die Ochsenbäckchen waren sehr gut, die Beilage hat nicht geschmeckt. Das dritte Essen wurde mit halbwegs bewertet. Beim Abräumen sagten wir das die Gans ziemlich trocken ist, das wurde komplett ignoriert 😂 und obwohl wir in dieser Situation noch freundlich waren und viel Trinkgeld gegeben haben, wurden wir wieder auch nicht verabschiedet. In dieser kalten Halle wurde dann noch ein Buffet für einen Nachbarraum angeboten, was für noch mehr Ungeselligkeit sorgte. Alles in allem sehr schade, zumal man auf dem Weißen Hirsch zu Hause ist und jetzt lieber weiter weg fährt, um Essen zu gehen.

A great view of Dresden... Very good food and really nice staff. In any case a recommendation.

The city is famous for its beautiful and scenic views and I recommend anyone reading this to also visit this place which offers a beautiful view of the city.

It was nice today in the Luisenhof, a great restaurant, the food was excellent and reasonably priced, just a nice experience, many thanks to the kitchen. I will definitely come here again.

Once again a visit to the Luisenhof, unfortunately my telephone reservation was forgotten and unfortunately there was no table with a view of Dresden. The boss still had a very pleasant table for us, the first impression of the waiter (the first impression counts), well, then things got better. However, the food is absolutely great and so tasty, people like to be here, the ambience is also great, a big thank you to the Rühle family for bringing the Luisenhof back to life. If the reservation works out next time, we'll be happy to come back.

The Luisenhof, a great experience for the senses. It starts with the clear, modern ambience and a view from the terrace over Dresden, indescribably beautiful. This goes smoothly into the service. A friendly, courteous service. For our large number of people, the food came to the table at the same time and then we get straight to eating. It was an experience for the palate. Thank you very much for this lovely evening, we will be happy to recommend the Luisenhof and pay a visit again.

Very nice and good service and with very good cuisine.

What a view on a golden autumn day....service friendly and attentive.

We ate at the Luisenhof today, a good address in such fantastic weather because of the great view! The service was also very friendly. But unfortunately the food didn't score that well, the sauerbraten was very tough and the sauce was very greasy, next time I might choose a different dish.

Great service with very great food with a very, very great view and equally great weather.

We celebrated our anniversary in the panorama room with around 100 people. Everything corresponded to the agreements made beforehand. The service was quick, careful and, above all, very friendly. Food was excellent. A big thank you to Mr. Rühle and team. We were very satisfied and will recommend the Luisenhof at any time.

Great view over Dresden. Good food - large portions! Very friendly service. No to few parking spaces in the immediate vicinity.

Great place, delicious coffee, amazing views.

Mega ambience with a fantastic view over Dresden. The service was friendly and very accommodating. The food is simply outstanding in terms of value for money!

Very nice restaurant, I will come back again

Exclusive restaurant and a breathtaking view over Dresden.

Great ambience, great terrace, great view.

Food was good, price performance okay. No games for children and a beautiful view.

We took our family here for a nice evening and ordered Ochsenbachen , Steak and Truffelpasta. We came for the Ochsenbachen , it was good and tender. However the truffle pasta was very bland, no salt, no truffle taste nor smell and we talked to the waiter. They only provided a bit more truffle oil , that’s it. The pasta was still very tasteless, worse that making it at home. Very disappointing . We used to tell friends that this place serves our favorite food and best view, not anymore.

When we visited again, we weren't quite as impressed with the service. There were a lot of very young service staff jumping around, but some of them barely understood German or orders were forgotten or not understood. Nothing against trainees, but so many technical errors were made there that it would have been nice if an instructor had stood there and corrected them or evaluated them later. Otherwise the food was again very tasty. With the very expensive drinks, I would like glass or metal straws instead of the unspeakable cardboard straws.

The best location in Dresden. Food top, service excellent, view of Dresden from the “balcony” is incredibly beautiful. Visited again after 40 years, I was very touched. The ride on the funicular to “Luisenhof” is definitely one of them. A thank you to the staff and boss of the house, as well as to his nice, friendly mother, who I got to know. All the best and we'll be back next year. Kind regards from Lake Constance, the Mauer family

The view is great. The atmosphere was pleasant and the service was good too. The food was very good. Not huge portions, just right. We were thrilled.

We were treated like second class guests. The food (casserole) was partly charred. The price-performance ratio doesn't fit at all. That was our last visit to this restaurant. The view is actually magnificent.

Very nice view and also very nice staff. We only had coffee and cake. It worked

Went to Sunday brunch, everything was great, the selection of food was great, everyone also enjoyed the lovely hours. They'll be happy to come back 👍👍👍❤

Beautiful ambience, the kitchen is a dream, very friendly service, the 🍰 offer is also good, and if you haven't seen Dresden from above, a wonderful view. The 🍻 garden is also impressive. Otherwise suitable for every occasion. I would like to thank you and would be happy to come back.

A wonderful restaurant with foresight, delicious food and very friendly staff. Children are also welcome :-)

Recommended restaurant, nice view over Dresden. Friendly staff, prices reasonable.

Great food, great view, just all around.

Great food, friendly, attentive service! However, I didn't like the atmosphere that much: too big, too impersonal.

Very nice staff, great atmosphere

Very tasty, upscale gastronomy. You notice the experience and the long tradition.

Beautiful view of the Elbe valley and the blue wonder. Cable car stops right next to it. The trip is worth it.

The view alone (when the weather is good) deserves the rating “sensational”. The upscale ambience continues seamlessly throughout the rooms. The food is excellent, the service is good to very good. The waiting time we experienced was certainly due to the fact that it was very crowded. We'll definitely be back.

Very nice restaurant, the view is simply incredible even in the evening. The food is great and the service staff is very friendly. To reach the restaurant, I recommend taking the funicular. It's best to park downstairs and take the train up and down again. If you are there for dinner, of course, ask in advance when the last train leaves. It's worth a visit to the Luisenhof whether for an evening or a coffee (the cake is homemade there).

Spontaneously went for dinner here for 8 people. 🍽️ We wanted to go to the funicular and the Luisenhof is directly opposite. We had lunch here and I haven't had such a good meal at a restaurant in a long time! Everyone was more than satisfied with various dishes. I don't have to say anything more about it. Absolutely recommended. The view of the Elbe and the valley is very beautiful. 🤩

We went to Luisenhof for Sunday brunch. The ambience is beautiful, the view from the terrace over the Elbe valley is wonderful. You can sit both inside and outside. The food was varied, plentiful and tasted very good. There was a large selection of hot and cold portions. It was always refilled if something became empty. The service was quick and very friendly and quickly brought the drinks we ordered, which were exclusive. We enjoyed the view and the food in the beautiful weather What I didn't like was that the brunch didn't last until 2:30 p.m. or 3 p.m., as usual (in other restaurants). Then everything would have been perfect.

As always, very nice and exciting and highly recommended

We went for brunch with friends. Everything was very tasty and filling. It was always refilled straight away, cold and warm. It all worked out. We will definitely go to Luisenhof for brunch again.

"The Balcony of Dresden" A very good restaurant with a spectacular view over Dresden from the balcony. Very good food and very attentive and friendly staff. We would love to come back. A little tip: you can easily go up with the funicular (which you should definitely do when visiting Dresden). The upper station is just a few steps away from the restaurant.

Nice view of Dresden, highly recommended

The food is delicious, the service sometimes takes a while and the prices are OK. Parking spaces are in short supply. It's best if you park in the valley and take the funicular up.

Gute Küche...seht gute Ausblicke...alles hat Flair

We were in the beer garden with a wonderful view over Dresden and were able to enjoy the sunset. The food was very tasty and came relatively quickly despite the many guests. I have to deduct one point for my water glass, which looked very unappetizing on the edge. When we sat down at our table, the dishes from the previous guests had been cleared, but the table was not wiped down. However, this was done immediately upon request. Otherwise, I can really recommend the restaurant.

Perfect place for a dinner accompanied by a sunset! Service is very friendly yet slow. Food is superb! Atmopshere great...extra tip: if you come by foot, avoid the steep uphill way

The restaurant is really stylishly furnished and the super modern ambience is very nice no matter whether you are inside or outside. The staff is very, very friendly and on the ball, thank you, you are great. The food is prepared with love and tastes excellent. The view from the terrace is really beautiful over Dresden

Everything was very nice and the view was beautiful

On the 14th I celebrated my 22222nd day on this planet at the Luisenhof. First of all: all 22 guests were very satisfied! The food was really above average, our service staff was very friendly and on the ball, the design of the room was great and the prices were reasonable. I can therefore recommend the Luisenhof for all kinds of celebrations.

Unfortunately this place is not for us. Our lunch took 1 hour to be served, and what's worse was we were served later than two other tables that arrived much later than us. Generally, the servers and manager were not friendly, and there is nothing to brag about the place, at all. Food was just okay, not flavourful at all. Don't expect too much. If I were you, save your money elsewhere. If you need a photo of Dresden balcony, walk over the Terasse, snap it and leave. The servers are too ignorant and busy to worry about you. I have no photos of the food, we were starving and couldn't bother at all.

Welcome to the restaurant with the best view in Dresden. The menu is diverse, the food is top-notch, and the drinks suit my taste. The service is good, the place is clean, and the view is outstanding. I am from Indonesia and hope to dine at this restaurant again💯🤤

Really great view from the terrace of the Elbe and Dresden.

Very nice restaurant with a wonderful view over Dresden. A little more upscale and therefore more expensive. Definitely worth a visit!

Had a drink there. Beautiful terrace with a view of Dresden.

Excellent hospitality that can only be recommended! Super!

You definitely wouldn't expect a place like this in this corner of Dresden. Worth recommending! The location, the service but also the cuisine is a "MUST" visit when you visit Dresden. Thank you very much, I felt very comfortable as a guest

The food was excellent, our wishes were catered for, the service was always friendly and competent, and the ambience speaks for itself. A beautiful place with a great view over Dresden. We liked it very much.

Very tasty food, child-friendly staff, indoor and outdoor play area, still quiet atmosphere with a beautiful view. Thank you very much, we'll be back.

Simply fantastic on the balcony of Dresden, the city and everything beyond it is at your feet while you enjoy a fantastic meal.

Unfortunately I cannot give a positive review. My brother celebrated his birthday here yesterday. We had to wait a long time until someone came and took the drinks and food. After that it took a very long time before the first starters arrived. Some starters were forgotten and only came after we asked for them. Then there was another big break and then the main courses only came in bits and pieces. As compensation there was some bread with dip. Unfortunately the staff was understaffed and the Luisenhof was probably fully booked that evening. You can't take on so many orders if you don't have enough staff. The food and drinks were ok. Unfortunately, I also have to say that the side balcony had a lot of weeds. That's not a pretty sight, especially when you know that it's actually an upscale restaurant. The view of Dresden is unbeatable. I don't need to talk about parking options. They've always been catastrophic but the restaurant can't do that.

We were completely satisfied. Super nice staff, great food and a fantastic view from the terrace. Highly recommended.

Long waiting times, despite pre-ordering, service unfriendly and annoyed, food was ok, but nothing special

Very very very expensive, the burger was raw and the schnitzel, even for that price, you can eat better elsewhere

Super nice view. However, if I e.g. If I pay €16.40 for a schnitzel with fries, then I expect it to be at least well done and not raw on the inside. Same with burgers. Goulash was cold. Once we pointed this out, we had to argue with waiters to have our food returned. Staff is extremely unfriendly. If the food were “done”, I don’t think it would taste very good either. So it's not worth the price. A small STILL tap water costs €3.50 (0.25!!!). You simply don't WANT to afford something like that under these circumstances!

Great view, beautiful atmosphere (inside as well), very friendly staff, and great food (albeit not entirely on the top of the game when it comes to fusion dishes). It's an absolute recommendation!

Waited 1.5 hours for food despite pre-ordering. Speci €6.20 (0.4l) way too expensive. The taste of the burger was okay. However, the meat was still very, very red and no one asked beforehand how they would like it. That's nothing for me. Staff not so friendly, intentionally ignored us several times and took forever. They also saved a lot on fries. Then the beer comes in a wheat glass, once and never again!
