masons Restaurant Kaiserslautern in Kaiserslautern

The concept of Mason's is unique...and my favorite dining experience I have had in a long time. For 40 Euros, you can take a trip around the world , eating basically all you can eat....there's a two hour time limit, but I only was able to eat 13 items, and my colleagues each only had 9. And almost all of the items were very tasty. At least five were incredible , including the Barbajuans from Monaco, the Buttermilk Chicken from Nigeria, and the Lotus Cheesecake from Belgium (I ordered two), and I think there were only two that were a disappointment, including the Whiskey Cola Currywurst from Germany (I liked it a lot.. just not an improvement over a wurst stand and everything else was so amazing I may have been expecting too much). I will be eating here every time I come to Kaiserslautern. I'm so glad my company forces us to stay in Hilton Hotels, otherwise I would never have eaten at this restaurant located in the same structure as the Hampton Inn.

Interessantes Konzept. Die Location war gut besucht entsprechend hoch der Geräuschpegel. Service total chaotisch, mehrfach wurden uns falsche Speisen gebracht und die zweiten Getränke dauerten über 1/2 Stunde. Erst nach extra Bestellung bei der Restaurantchefin bekamen wir unsere Bestellung. Insgesamt ein freundlicher und bemühter Service jedoch etwas überfordert. Die Speisen kommen in kleinen Portionen und sind geschmacklich gut. Wobei die Soßen oft etwas Mayonnaise lastig waren und oftmals gleich schmeckten.

As always, a pleasure. Repeat guaranteed.

Very good food around the world. Everything was appealing and delicious. A lovely, enjoyable evening in Masons Kaiserslautern.

Unfortunately, we can't really understand the positive comments here. One thing in advance. The service was top. You can't fault anything here. The ambience is inviting, modern and warm. However, there is a big point deduction for the narrow seating. At tables for two, you sit almost closer to the table next to you than to your partner sitting opposite. The food was at least OK for us. Unfortunately everything is very uniform. Only a few spices that are “typical for the country” cause a change in taste. It seemed to us as if "standard sauces" or meat (e.g. pulled pork) were used in several dishes. Furthermore, all dishes were more than greasy due to fried parts or oil. This has little to do with real finesse or culinary art. Unfortunately, the desserts were extremely oversweet. If you put the above points in relation to the price of 40 €/p. (only food) I can neither give a recommendation nor a final positive conclusion. Therefore no further visit.

Very nice entertaining evening with mostly very good food.

Food was INCREDIBLE. Staff was great. We will definitely be back.

A very good gastronomic concept that allowed us to travel around the world at a high culinary level. Thank you to the entire Masons team!

Great experience, cool concept, nice atmosphere.

Fast, good food with a large selection. The portions are appropriate, as you would like to try a lot of things. What's great is that you can order almost everything vegetarian. Always my pleasure.

Very tasty, my wife and I really enjoyed it there.

Great restaurant in K-town! The food is freshly prepared and you can order new food from the tray every 6 minutes. (You can always order drinks immediately) The food is really, really tasty and fresh, kudos to the kitchen. The service is quick/friendly/helpful, great service staff! There are enough parking spaces available. We'll be back :)

Fantastic concept, around the world please, highly recommend. We'd love to come back

Great experience! Food and drinks were delicious and service was quick! Will definitely be going back.

Food is sensational! But be careful, the small portions are deceptive! I've overindulged! The only thing that was a bit annoying was that the service staff often left the empty plates on the table for a longer time and drinks took a long time even though the restaurant was quite empty But I'll definitely come back anyway!

Had super nice waitresses. Food is bomb. He was also very fond of children.

Great Service and Fun Dining experience! Made for a great Bday dinner

Very tasty food, great service and a unique concept!

Very good service, the food was very tasty with a large selection. Only the acoustics in the restaurant are not that good.

Loved our first outing to Masons! The food and drinks are absolutely delicious! The only issue we had was our IPad screen didn’t always work and it took a while to order sometimes, but the food was definitely worth it!

A great culinary journey. Homemade lemonade delicious but very sweet. Diluted spritzer to order. A matter of taste! Great courteous service. Again and again

Food was super tasty. It was great to find something new. Will come often, even if the chairs are not made for larger butts. Unfortunately I have to reduce my rating to 3 stars due to the change in the concept of the specials. When we were there for the first time three years ago, we had to pay a one-time surcharge for the specials. Now you have to pay an additional charge per portion for each individual portion of special ordered. I find this too much. You really need to rethink the concept here. I would like to see a waiter call button for the tablets. The food was again incredibly tasty.

Very nice restaurant nice staff is quite David a really friendly guy had a nice evening it gets full very quickly. But the food is extremely wonderful. Kind regards to David and David is the best waiter #David

David is the best waiter, was nice to us the whole time and gave us a surprise at the end. Just a very likeable person, funny and adaptable. He deserves a raise😘

Service great, food interesting and quick. Gladly again! A few negative points: Dogs are allowed and the farting dog at the next table had a significant impact on our evening...

Great restaurant and nice employees Greetings go out to David #Bestwaiter

A restaurant with a difference: the food was delicious, the ambience was exceptional and the service was excellent. A real highlight that is definitely worth a second visit!

Good service, hardly any waiting time and all the dishes tasted great. The individual portions are relatively small, but you will be more than full in the 2 hours and can try several dishes. The price is a bit higher but definitely justified for what you get. We'd love to come back.

Everything was great! We would love to come back!

Despite a slow start to the experience (I misunderstood a couple of dishes), the staff recovered magnificently. Everyone was receptive to my complaint (even though it was my fault) and quickly took action to correct my issue to my satisfaction. After that, the staff explained everything again and with a tableside tablet, we were able to browse thru the menu and order dishes we thought looked good. Between the 3 of us, we shared a bite or two of each dish. By keeping note of the 6 minute count down between orders, we were able to keep food being delivered to our table constantly and the staff definitely was hustling thru-out the evening. Every dish was delicious and the food was of a very high quality. Deserts, my only complaint would be there were too small (;)... Overall a fantastic dining experience that I highly recommend for everyone....

The service was a little chaotic, but a wonderful experience, I would go back. The food was delicious and very fresh!

Beautiful location, delicious food, friendly service, again at any time.

I'm a chef myself and come from a top-class restaurant background. I've already eaten some dishes in the respective country and was skeptical at first, but the food and drinks were phenomenally tasty, there were 3 things that weren't so tasty, the sticky rice tasted like chicken nuggets Not great, the salad was boring and the Cyprus dish unfortunately couldn't keep up with the aromatic other dishes. I'll come back and look forward to the next trip around the world.

We were guests at Masons in Kaiserslautern on December 26th, 2024. The concept is simple: you can order something from the menu every 6 minutes. Dishes around the world in tapas size. The waiting times vary, the preparation methods are too different. But it never lasted more than a few minutes. Theoretically, around 20 rounds of orders are possible in 2 hours. Food: Extremely delicious. The smaller portions make it possible to "eat" your way through many countries around the world. We didn't have a dish that we didn't like. With every plate, with every bowl a new “Aha” feeling. Incredible. Service: You order drinks and food via a tablet. The service delivers the order within a very short time. All service staff were extremely friendly and attentive. This made us all feel welcome. Simply perfect as a guest in a restaurant! Ambiance: There are enough parking spaces available. Cozy inside, it wasn't as noisy as other descriptions suggested (even though the restaurant was at full capacity). Conclusion: The price is absolutely justified. First-class food around the world combined with great service. We have rarely driven home so satisfied. Many thanks to the Masons team, that was great!!! We'll definitely be back!

It's very nice in the maisons. There were 14 of us and it was perfect. The food was very tasty and the service was great. We like to come here regularly

Masons was an incredibly great experience for our group. We were there for a birthday. It would be decorated for us, even though we didn't specifically request this, and the birthday child was warmly welcomed by the team. The entire team was simply magical. There was a lot going on and yet EVERYONE had a smile on their face at all times and patiently answered our questions. Huge praise for that. The concept is also crazy. The process went smoothly and the food was sensationally good. For us, the two hours were completely sufficient and we had really good eaters with us. We will definitely make the trip from Ansbach again and come back. But then with sweatpants🤩 thanks again for a more than successful evening!

Food is very tasty Friendly staff Interesting concept

We made a reservation, we had a lovely evening, delicious food, great atmosphere, we'll be back with this delicious selection

Mansons Restaurant in Kaiserslautern offers a great menu with dishes from all around the world. The food is delicious, and there are plenty of dessert options to satisfy your sweet tooth. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick and timely. It's a great place to enjoy a meal with a variety of flavors and excellent service.

Super delicious food... Great atmosphere and very friendly staff...

The food was delicious and the staff was very nice and accommodating. That was really a nice evening.

The food was good but sometimes there was too much mayonnaise. Two portions were forgotten It was very loud.

The concept is good, the food is really good! It's great that you can try so many different dishes from all over the world. I just didn't like the ambience that much, it had something of a "train station hall" feel to it. It is very noisy and due to the many waiters walking around the restaurant all the time (of course they have to bring new dishes all the time), the atmosphere is just not that nice. That's a shame because you actually want to enjoy the good food.

As always it was very nice :) We are very happy to come every time, regardless of whether you have a dog or without, you are warmly welcomed. And our dog loves the restaurant. We'll be back very soon Best regards Allen family

Great concept with delicious dishes and very friendly staff, we'll be happy to come back :-)

Food was great. Staff was very nice. A nice experience compared to conventional gastronomy.

The basic price is high at 38.90. The desserts are incredibly sweet.

Food was good, but not outstanding. The concept is interesting, but there is also a certain hectic pace. I imagine a cozy and enjoyable meal a little differently. I was a bit disappointed with the service because it was often simply turned off without comment and you often didn't know what it was.

Five of us were guests here this evening and everyone was thrilled. Not only was the huge selection of different dishes convincing, but also the quality of the food. In addition, all the employees are super friendly, very attentive and very on the ball. We would love to come back - even if we have to travel a good 2 hours for it :-)

The opportunity to taste many different dishes is a very good model. Price performance fits. The selection of dishes from 23/24 were changed a little. So it doesn't get boring.

We had reserved a table for the “second shift” at 8:15 p.m. There was a small line at the door. But we got in quickly and were shown to our table. The concept and the tablet were explained to us. Unfortunately, the tablet reacts a bit sluggishly, but that was the only thing to complain about. The food was delicious, the service was quick and we loved the concept.

Were there for the first time today, were skeptical at first, but I have to say, it's very great, super friendly staff, the food is just great, lots of choice, we'll be back. AMBIENCE ALSO GREAT

Always delicious, service courteous, I can recommend it 100%. Almost every dish is also vegetarian and many are also vegan. The only small criticism: the soft drinks often have very little carbonation ☝️

Well prepared, delicious food and very attentive staff. Tried it once across several continents 👌

Everything perfect. Very large selection of different, delicious dishes from all over the world. The small portions make it easy to try things out. Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff.

A great experience where you can eat your way around the globe. The quality of the food is good and the selection of dishes on offer is varied. The service is quick and very friendly. The price is relatively high, but since it is a special experience, it is worth the money. Unfortunately, it is incredibly warm in the restaurant and so loud that it is difficult to have a conversation because it is one large room. Air conditioning and a few partitions to trap noise would probably help here. But Masons in Kaiserslautern is definitely worth a visit.

We had dinner there for our anniversary. The table was set especially for this occasion, the waiters were extremely friendly and congratulated! There is something for everyone when it comes to food! Vegan, vegetarian, fish, meat... everything was extremely tasty. We would love to come back from Mainz to Kaiserslautern :)

The overall experience was awesome! I am a bit of a foodie and this have me an opportunity to try a small enough portion of several different types of dishes from around the world that I didn't fill up too fast and if I didn't favor the dish it wasn't a whole portion so no wasted food or money. It was also almost like a personal challenge/game ordering round after round and trying the next dish. The staff were so attentive and kind whenever we had a question or any dishes. My overall favorite was the butter chicken and my husband's was the barbajuans de Monaco (we tried over half of the entire offering). This was a fun date night!

Always a friendly and helpful service team A special compliment to the chefs and kitchen team Every dish was delicious

As always, the food was delicious and the staff were very courteous and attentive. Is highly recommended and we will definitely come back

Nothing works here without a reservation. We had booked a table for 8:15 p.m. and therefore ended up in the 2nd shift, i.e. at exactly 8:15 p.m. the first shift leaves the hall and the change takes place. So coming early doesn't help. Then you just stand outside in the cold for longer. Once you arrive at your seat, there is a short introduction to the order tablet. A dish can be ordered every 6 minutes, meaning a maximum of 20 dishes. We were full after about 12 dishes. For some signature dishes there is a small additional fee (1-2 euros), but I found that reasonable. I found the constant ordering a little stressful because you constantly have to make decisions. Basically you only spend 2 hours dealing with the dishes. These were all very good, I can't criticize anything. The processes are also perfect and you are served quickly. My conclusion: If you want to try out a different concept, this is the place for you. If you are looking for a relaxed evening to talk, I would prefer a classic restaurant. Oh yes, the room acoustics are bad, which makes conversation difficult or sometimes impossible. But most of the time you are busy ordering.

Very tasty food, you can choose which continent you want to go to on the tablet and choose something typical in the restaurant's interpretation. You always have to wait 6 minutes between orders. Drinks are available at any time. Good eaters can manage a good 10 to 12 sessions. There is a lot going on at the weekend and you should be prepared for a certain level of noise. The tables are then limited to just two hours.

We had dinner at Masons for a birthday party with 14 people. At the entrance you had to queue briefly because from 8 p.m. the guests are “swapped” and the tables are cleaned. We received a very friendly welcome, a bowl was offered for the dogs and we were given a vase of water for the bouquet of flowers. The waitress explained to us the ordering process via the tablet. This was really easy and intuitive to use. Despite the large number of people in the restaurant, we never had to wait long for drinks. The dishes were also served quickly. You had to wait a little longer for one or the other, but that didn't bother you at all since you could order again every 6 minutes. All the waitresses who served us food or drinks were very nice. The food was extremely good considering the concept, the size of the restaurant and the resulting large selection of different dishes. Almost every dish tasted very good, the portions were perfect and there was plenty of choice (including vegetarian and vegan). The drinks were also delicious and at absolutely fair prices (beer around €4, homemade lemonade around €5, cocktails around €8). Payment went absolutely smoothly, despite split bills. It went quickly and everything was billed correctly. The concept of the restaurant is very cool because, unlike an Asian AYCE with a lot of similar dishes, you don't feel disgusted here. You can also try a lot of dishes and get to know new things. It would be nice if more locations were added in the future. I am convinced that the concept would also be well received in Mainz/Frankfurt/Koblenz etc.! We will definitely come back again as soon as the menu has changed.

A great concept and delicious food. We were thrilled!

Food was great and was delivered quickly. Waiters were all friendly and attentive. Unfortunately the toilet wasn't very clean. We'll definitely be back.

This concept has to be experienced to be believed. Here culinary delicacies from all over the world meet friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere.

Good food, but a bit high price

Modern, chic furnishings Food very varied and super tasty Staff very friendly and accommodating

Mega! Can't be surpassed in terms of exceptionality. Constantly changing dishes. Been there at least 6 times!

Really great store and great concept. The selection is great and delicious

Very friendly and accommodating staff

So I can only give high praise, the service staff were very friendly, attentive and courteous, the food was perfect and I can only recommend it.

So it's really great here. Food is delicate. Service is courteous and the ambience is nice too! The only reason I "only" give it 4 stars is because you eat too much to "recoup" the €40 it costs, it makes you sick... And if you go there just to eat normal amounts, it's worth it the 40€ per person is not... I would prefer to pay €20 but only eat half as much.

Cool location. Definitely an experience that is worth it.

..a wonderful selection of small dishes and great service throughout the entire evening. Unfortunately, the restaurant is a bit too small for the high demand and therefore a bit too noisy and restless overall.

Once again a lovely evening with lots of delicious food! The service was also very friendly and attentive! Always my pleasure!

This is the second time we have been to Masons in Kaiserslautern and we are absolutely thrilled! The menu offers an impressive selection of dishes from around the world, perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. No matter whether Asian, American or European cuisine - there is really something for every taste here and there is always something new to discover. The ambience is modern and cozy, and the service is attentive and friendly without being intrusive. All in all, a real highlight in Kaiserslautern! We will definitely come back and can only recommend Masons!

Really nice. You feel good. Service was super nice. Food on the table every 6 minutes on time. Wonderful. Always my pleasure!

Great concept to try out the world's cuisine. I'd love to come back. The service was attentive, despite the large number of visitors. The ambience is very nice, unfortunately a bit restless due to the many visitors.

Food is really good and an experience! Price performance absolutely utopian! It's definitely too expensive. The volume is loud, you can't have a conversation.

The Maisons in Kaiserslautern offer a really high level of cuisine. The dishes, which are divided into continents according to origin, are not too lavish and each one is beautifully prepared. The service is very, very friendly, attentive, polite and as a guest you feel like you are in good hands there. A little advice apart from the whole thing: in order to have a stable network connection on the tablets side and to protect them from too frequent "crashes", I would not let them run on the same WiFi network that the guests have access to with their smartphones.

We were here for dinner with 12 people. The food is consistently good and the atmosphere is also very nice. Unfortunately the store itself is a bit noisy as it was very busy. The setting looks like a train station hall. I personally don't like that in a restaurant. The staff (service) was ok. Unfortunately, all the dishes always get mixed up, which is probably due to the logistics of the kitchen. But I can also understand that with so many small dishes that have to go. As always, our visit was a culinary journey through the world. It's also nice that the dishes always change. Now about the price...it is of course very high. When I think about it, with 500 guests in the evening. 20,000 € and more sales. I can't understand why the food has to be sold so expensive here. Clearly a negative point. Sry, but a lot of things are now cheaper again, but the restaurants are becoming more expensive. Otherwise everything is ok. 4* from me.

Very cozy, attentive service and good food.

Were at Masons shortly after the reopening. The food, ambience and service were excellent. When it comes to the selection of dishes, everyone will find something - even children. We will definitely come again - I think it is also suitable for company dinners. See you soon! Update 10/2024: We were loyal guests at Masons, but we now find the prices extremely high. For just under 40 euros per person, you pay almost 140 euros for a family (children 12+14) and that doesn't include a drink. And we all know that children eat practically nothing from the fancy menu. Hope it changes again in the future.

Great meals. Suitable for vegetarians. Drink selection great! Good service despite the restaurant being fully booked. Great ambience, but very loud and extremely warm.

Was a lot of fun. Very good food. You choose the countries on the tray and choose dishes that are served in the size of tapas.

It was very nice there ☺️ the food was really delicious ☺️. Unfortunately we were there before 7pm and could only stay for 2 hours. That made it really stressful. And you were constantly looking for what to order next. The staff was very friendly.

... the first impression when we arrived was: "many people"; but: After being assigned a table, we had a pleasant feeling of privacy despite the many guests. The furnishings and decoration are very harmonious and warm, not intrusive, so that a nice feeling of relaxation arises. Since we are very "analog" people, it's nice that there are paper menus; Using the ordering tablets that come to your table is absolutely user-friendly and hassle-free. The staff is very courteous and friendly, the processes are perfect. We think that the variety, portion sizes, appearance and taste of the dishes are exactly what is offered here. The price/performance ratio is absolutely reasonable and (in our opinion) very good. The *masons* definitely has the potential to become a 'we'll go there more often' restaurant...

We went there on the evening of my bachelorette party. A friend had reserved a table in advance, I think without a reservation you have a very poor chance of getting a table. For the JGA I got a small drink on the house and small rolls with dip. 👍🏻 The tables are then booked for 2 hours, during which time you can order food every 6 minutes, which you can choose from different 'countries'. Drinks come extra, the food is basically a fixed price unless you order specials which cost around €0.50-€2.00 extra Unfortunately, right at the beginning, a young waitress had a mishap; a friend had half a liter of beer poured on her because the glass tipped over from the tablet. 🙈 They responded immediately, apologized a thousand times, offered to take over the cleaning if stains remained, and the beer was also on the house. We were very satisfied, the food was great, very tasty. We would definitely go back. One star deduction for the ambience because it was unfortunately very loud due to the busy shop. Sometimes you had to speak very loudly and communicate.

Very good food delivered quickly. The staff was super friendly 👌🏻

Everything went very quickly and all the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Even though there was a lot going on, no one seemed annoyed or stressed. The food was very good, the selection is very large, there is something for every taste. Unfortunately it was relatively loud during our visit. Otherwise great.

Good food and good service.highly recommended!

Fast and attentive service. The new card is the stunner. The atmosphere is nicer than in Saarbrücken. Any time.

The food was good. However, most dishes are very spicy, so you drink more. There's not much for the slim line. However, in mid-October it was far too warm in the restaurant. You have to cope with the fact that a lot of waitresses are constantly scurrying past you. Therefore, if you want it to be comfortable, you should think about it beforehand. In my opinion you can eat well there, but not that often.

Very nice experience. The food and drink was really great in terms of taste and appearance! You will be more than full. The smaller portions allow you to try your way through the menu. There are many vegetarian and also some vegan options. Ordering via the tablet was really easy and you never had to wait for waiters to take your order. The ambience was nice. But we found the air very stuffy. It would also be good if the sign outside was illuminated. All in all, a very nice evening with high quality food, which justifies the price. We can only recommend it.

Wonderful! Food and drinks were super delicious. Service was top. Towards the end of the evening we found it extremely warm.

Wie immer ein Highlight, Essen top, Service fantastisch, Ambiente unschlagbar. Konzept einfach Mega. Immer wieder gerne.Wir lieben diese Location

Fantastic, unbeatable. Great concept. Service fantastic.

We had a very nice evening. The food is simply delicious and very lovingly prepared.

Unfortunately, we are now quite disappointed. Less than a year ago we were still quite satisfied, especially when it came to the vegetarian and vegan selection. We were there yesterday and it's really sad what you can now get as a vegetarian and vegan alternative. Especially with the choripan, the difference is extreme. On our last visit there was a really tasty option with vegan chorizo ​​and now it's just a salsa Tomatoes, onions and chili... It's a shame that such savings are made on these dishes. Meat dishes are also becoming increasingly poor. Only the desserts were, as always, extremely delicious. ❤️ Hopefully the standard will change again, we always enjoyed coming.
