Mati Halle in Halle (Saale)

We visited the restaurant one evening with friends, and everyone was more than satisfied. The ambiance is truly lovely, and the food was truly delicious! Large portions at a fair price. My partner and I paid only €50 together (including tip). The noise level was normal, and it was easy to have a conversation. I would definitely recommend it!👍🏻

We were celebrating a birthday, it was wonderful, and the child was surprised with a nice gift. Again and again

Thank you for the wonderful birthday party with my friends! The food, the service, and you as a team are simply fantastic. Keep up the good work! We're always happy to come back! Thank you sooooo much!!!! Best wishes from Torsten and Kathleen

Yes, it was the first time there and I was positively surprised. Only the dishes and cutlery are important, which is very nice. I myself am from the catering industry and I value cleanliness, especially the toilets.

Great atmosphere, always cheerful waiters, delicious food. A true asset to the Südstadt district. I'll be happy to come back again and again.

Very tasty food the best restaurant in the halle salle I even say

Very good restaurant with good cuisine and excellent service.

We eat here often and are always satisfied and feel at home. The service is very friendly and quick.

A fantastic Greek restaurant, second to none. The food is incredibly delicious and the service is excellent. The prices are also good for what you get.

Great atmosphere, large portions, lots of garlic, and excellent value for money. What more could you want?

After several visits, I finally have to write something. We came today for lunch without a reservation and got a great seat by the window. The server was very friendly and accommodating. The food is, as always, delicious, hot, and fresh. The price is reasonable, as is the atmosphere in the restaurant. It's very clean and well-maintained. Excellent service and very friendly.

I love going to Mati. I highly recommend it. Great service and incredibly delicious food. 🥘🥰

Attentive and friendly service, a pleasant atmosphere, and delicious food. Parking is also available if you arrive by car. We'd be happy to return! Update 07/2025: Nothing to add - still great!

Very spacious and lots of room! Very friendly staff! And a large restaurant with nice decor! Very good food! Highly recommended! 👍👍😊😊

We love it here. Everything from the typical Germanized Greek food to the authentic Greek Stifado tastes good, the ouzo is generous, and the service is usually very courteous and prompt. Despite the increased prices compared to last year, it still gets full marks. My personal favorite is the surprise plate.

Great food, superb service, and a cozy atmosphere. Everything was fresh and delicious, and the staff was very attentive and friendly. I'd love to come back!

Highly recommended The food was delicious And the staff were very friendly

The food is pretty good, but it's always extremely loud when you're inside.

Always worth a stop, great service and very tasty food.

The service and food are very good. We'll definitely be back 👍

Delicious food, ouzo-friendly service 😂 and you should reserve a table to be on the safe side, because it is very busy there

Everything was great, food, service and location.

I found it very loud. The service was attentive but overwhelmed. Starters, drinks, and main course all arrived at the same time, but the food was good.

Very tasty food. Very good price/performance ratio. Lots of seating, inside and outside. Very friendly, helpful/committed staff, good teamwork despite the high crowd😎💪. As a guest you feel like you are being treated to a lot of ❤️. Of course, due to its size and popularity, the noise level in this restaurant is slightly higher, especially on weekends. But it would be sad if we all had nothing more to say to each other 😉🥳. There is also plenty of capacity for large celebrations. Many thanks to the great staff on site🙏👏🤩💪😎🥳🤗❤️!

The staff is super nice and makes you feel comfortable. The menu is like that of almost every Greek restaurant, unfortunately without any highlights or variety. There were also reasons to return the food, but this situation was resolved in a very friendly and courteous manner. We love being here and would love to come back.

We were in a group of 10 people, with prior reservation. Staff completely overwhelmed...crowds of people, so you had no chance of getting to the buffet. Disaster. We ended up ordering from the menu, which was just okay... We also had to wait quite a long time for the drinks. In the end, the calculation wasn't right either. We cannot recommend this restaurant.

Have been to Mati several times and now for the second time at an event. Unfortunately we were disappointed again, there is a difference whether you go at normal times or to a concert/ - all can your eat. The staff is simply not adapted even though there are more guests. This has an extreme effect on the waiting time and takes away the feeling of relaxation. The six of us were really disappointed. In addition, there were no desserts other than a small number of fruits. Waiting time when paying 45 minutes was about to leave without paying.

First time there. Table pre-ordered at the beginning of April, eaten on April 30th. Everything worked so far, air-conditioned room and we were on our own. Have ordered Buffett food, and I really recommend it, it's just delicious and it's always beautifully refilled. BUT the service... At the beginning everything was great until one of us didn't like the Paulaner. Something else was ordered to drink and that took... Took... Took... After 30 minutes I went to the counter and asked if the drink had been forgotten.... ANSWER: I'll be right back... 40 minutes later, a MAN goes there, the drink is there. ________________ Are they misogynistic?

😋 Food, friendly staff, good parking, short-term reservations possible even on public holidays (Easter)

Great team, great food. We are almost regular guests.

Delicious, and super loud when full. Great service.

I can only recommend it. Delicious.

A wonderful Greek restaurant. Friendly service and quick order processing. Food tastes very good. Toilets clean. T

The food was really excellent! Very fast, friendly and competent service! Gladly again!

This Greek restaurant is highly recommended, good value for money, the ambience is also appealing

Fast, friendly service and delicious food.👍

This was our first time at Mati and we were very positively surprised. Service exemplary, very friendly. The lunch menu was sufficient and tasty for the price. We'd love to come back. Also a recommendation for other guests 😃

More of a big pub atmosphere than a restaurant atmosphere! We went for a birthday dinner with 14 people. Despite booking 4 weeks in advance, we didn't get any consecutive seats. After us, many people were turned away despite reservations. Because there were so many people, there was a penetratingly high noise level the entire time. The service staff seemed extremely annoyed with every order and a lot of things were simply forgotten while eating. However, there was nothing to complain about in terms of quality or taste. Conclusion: Not a restaurant for a cozy evening!

If I only rate the food, definitely YES. The four of us were in this restaurant today from 6:00 p.m. Every meal we ordered was delicious, without any compromises. But the later it got, it got extremely loud at times, and it was very busy - which speaks for the quality of the food. Unfortunately we didn't receive anything from our second drink order. After a long wait we decided to go to the counter and pay.

The service and food there is first class

Best gyros in front of the gentleman with a sufficient portion of tzatziki. The tomato rice is always just overcooked rice with ketchup elsewhere, but here the rice is really well made and delicious. The outside of the building is ghetto-like but the inside is okay. I liked the high benches on the left side because they offer privacy.

Top food, top service. We had a great evening :)

When you come across the back yard, it doesn't really look inviting and you think about turning back. When you arrive inside, you are greeted politely and taken to your seat. The food tasted good, but not amazing or plentiful. All in all, you can do it, but you don't have to, there are better Greek restaurants.

The food at Mati tastes very good and is served quickly. We feel very comfortable here! If you wait a little longer, a quarter liter of ouzo will help. Always happy ☺️

Everything was great especially the ouzo

No ouzo, neither before nor after the meal. Food was carelessly prepared and you had to wait a really long time. The ambience in the back area was like a beer garden. Waiters walked around haphazardly. To pay you had to go to the counter and say what you had ordered. You could have just left and no one would have noticed. There are plenty of other Greeks who are much better. Never again

There were 20 of us in the restaurant and we were very surprised. Typically Greek, large and cozy. There was something for everyone to eat and the prices were also very reasonable. It was delicious and definitely recommended.

The gyro was cold but tasted good. The salad is presented a bit carelessly and the sauce from the bucket is simply slapped on top. Metaxa sauce tasted like ready-made sauce. There was an extra children's menu, which is good, but the prices for the children's meals are completely overpriced. Almost 9 or 10 Eur for fries with 4 chicken nuggets. Unfortunately, despite the lack of activity, the staff wasn't very attentive. Too bad.

Why there are so many good reviews is a mystery to us, we don't need a restaurant for ready-made sauces and fried foods. Price/performance doesn't fit here!

Very tasty food and cozy atmosphere 💪After having a (Greek restaurant) disappointment this week, I'm looking forward to Mati👍Please stay as you are. See you next time 💪

Very friendly and attentive staff and the food was delicious

Mega friendly staff, very tasty. Absolutely recommended

We often eat at this restaurant. The service is always very friendly. The food tastes wonderful, the portions are large and fill you up.

Hello, we were in your restaurant for the first time today. Thank you so much for the great food and great service. we would love to come back.

We sat directly on the left when you come in. I think it's great that the benches are so high so that you don't notice anything from the neighboring table and have peace and quiet. The staff were very friendly and the food was also super delicious and the portions were large. We'll definitely be back :)

Very friendly staff, fast service and delicious, plentiful food.

The New Year's Eve party in the Mati restaurant was very nice. Great meal according to menu!!!! It's crazy for so many people. The food was hot, super tasty and the wait staff ran like rabbits. Hats off to the boys. There was also dessert shortly before midnight and, according to the menu, drinks too. We would love to come back and thank you again to the entire team!!!!!!!!! Greetings to magician Handoni and his wife and friends

Very nice restaurant. Despite the size and number of guests, we got our food in a very short time. Can be further recommended.

Had a small celebration today with about 30 people. The whole place was full. The service was quite quick. The food is highly recommended. We'll definitely see each other again 🍻

It was my first time at Mati. Me and my family really enjoyed it. Very nice team, they accommodated all changes from special requests when putting together the lunch.

Super tasty, very large portions, nice attentive staff, unfortunately prices have risen extremely like everywhere else but we would be happy to come back.

We waited a very long time before we were even served. The food was tasty but unfortunately very little. Everyone at the table had eaten and was still hungry…despite the starter. Unfortunately, price/performance ratio is not good.

Courteous welcome, escort to the table, quick drink service, free welcome schnapps, free starter, quick food delivery and always a friendly smile, a little fun and a typical local ambience in the most beautiful presentation. The ceiling lighting looks fantastic. Simply a dream of color play. Even when it's busy, the food comes quickly. You just feel good!!!

We always like to go here, the food is tasty and plentiful, the staff is very friendly and tries to serve quickly despite the restaurant being full, which has always worked so far. We order in advance by phone on weekends or public holidays, so we always get a table. During the week there is a lunch menu, smaller, cheaper dishes, you will still be full and everything is freshly prepared. For us in the south of Halle it's a perfect place to eat. 😊👍

Top food, the service is very attentive. We'll be back! Simply GREAT! P.s. For me it's now by far the best Greek in Halle!

I have never experienced such unfriendly Greeks. Full plates constantly wanted to be cleared away. We couldn't enjoy the starter in peace. We ordered 2x tzatziki for 4 people, unfortunately only 2 slices of bread were included, for 4 people??? Food was very good. Ambiance is reminiscent of a train station hall.

We were there for the first time and were pleasantly surprised. The food tasted great and was quick too. Service was very nice. We sat outside, I don't know what it looks like inside. Gladly a second time! Today I was at Mati, the food was great again, but the service left a lot to be desired today. After we had our food and drink, the service took a long time before anyone came again. Paying was the worst part, we waited for over half an hour, then we asked and finally everyone had to go to the checkout. Nobody came to the table to pay. Very bad!

It is very loud in the hall. Not a pleasant meal.

I was there for a buffet at the end of November 2024. €19.99 excluding drinks that was okay. The restaurant is large and spacious, very clean. The buffet itself was very adequate and was constantly being refreshed. It also tasted good. It was all there. Fruit and vegetables available separately. The service was good it went smoothly and quickly. With 2 drinks 30€ that was okay. Negatively, I missed fries and no honey balls that I had been looking forward to for so long. All in all a successful evening. Thanks for that. I'll come back again in January 2025. Best regards from me and from the heath north

We have been here several times since it opened and cannot change our very positive rating. Very attentive and friendly staff. Although the guest room is quite large, the successful furnishings make it easy to find your own space. The food is delicious and freshly prepared. I can only recommend Mati

From the outside, the Greek restaurant Mati looks like a dilapidated former GDR department store, circa 1980.... But when you turn the corner, the sight of the large, spacious outdoor terrace makes your eyes widen. The restaurant itself is beautifully designed, has a nice atmosphere and is cozy. The service staff is very friendly and hardworking.. The food is very tasty and the waiting time from ordering to serving was very good, about half an hour. We really, really enjoyed our time at Mati. We will come back and recommend this restaurant.

Cozy atmosphere even though the shop was full. Fast drinks service and the food was super fast and very tasty😋. The Bifteki is simply incredibly tasty.

Tip Top! After our first visit, we were immediately recognized the next time and received a very warm welcome. The dishes on offer are varied, the quality is impressive and the service is in no way inferior. There's nothing to complain about here, big praise to the entire staff and see you soon. Greetings from Schkeuditz.

As always, it tasted good and the service was great again. We really enjoy going here

The food was okay, I don't think you can expect much more given the size of the restaurant. The staff was super nice and quick. There was also ouzo... sometimes in between. The background noise is terrible. We were there on Saturday...every table was occupied...it was hard to communicate because of the noise at the table. It's a former department store...

The food was very good, but the service was overwhelmed by the very full and very noisy restaurant.

Eating was great, a little quick after each other. Service disinterested and not interested in sales. Waiting time after the main course was an enormous 25 minutes. We just wanted to order something and then just paid. The restaurant wasn't more comfortable, unfortunately it wasn't for us - there are better ones.

We've eaten here several times. The food and service are great even though the restaurant was packed. The food is reasonably priced. It's just very loud when it's full.

Very tasty food and a beautiful atmosphere. Always friendly people there. Reasonable waiting time after ordering.

Waiter very friendly. Ambiance is good just a bit noisy. Price and portion size OK.

That was a successful dinner. The food was delicious, the service was very friendly and the atmosphere was very nice. What I immediately noticed was that the children got their food first, and I really liked that.

We were there on Sunday around 12 p.m. Although it was very busy, the food arrived in a reasonable time after ordering. The service staff, as always, were super friendly. The calamari was perfect. The gyros and garlic potatoes were completely sufficient.

I am of the opinion that it is not recommended

For me it's currently the best Greek in Halle. Really very tasty, even the vegetarian dish is not just standard fare. The surroundings are not nice, but the interior is nicely decorated and the food makes everything great. Great cuisine and nice service 👍

My favorite Greek. 5* Update: Were here again for lunch today, October 20th, 2024. I can only say it again and again: It is the best Greek in Halle! Reservation worked great. The staff is great, the food is delicious, the atmosphere is wonderful. We look forward to next time. Kind regards from Halle and MSH

Very friendly service, delicious food. Unique hospitality. 1% deduction because it is very loud due to the amount of people. But what's 1% when the remaining 99% are for repeat visits. 👍🏻

Already the third time for the Greek evening. 🇬🇷 Rarely have we experienced such an exuberant atmosphere. Always beautiful! 🥰

The food was okay and came quickly. Recommended!

I was looking forward to a nice evening and unfortunately I was very disappointed, we were served the wrong food and then we sat for two hours with empty glasses. After we expressed our displeasure, we were told succinctly that we saw something going on here is. This is not how I imagined a relaxing visit to your restaurant.

Nice and quick service. Highly recommended.

Very very tasty food! Super fast service and very friendly! Really recommended

A department store used to be housed here, which meant that the guest room could be designed to be very spacious, open and “airy”. Together with the bright choice of colors and good lighting, it is fun to sit here. The staff is friendly and doesn't allow themselves to be stressed, even though the restaurant is always busy. Unfortunately it doesn't seem very organized. It can happen that you are asked several times whether you have already ordered. Unfortunately, the waiting times until the order is taken or you can pay are very long. The restaurant is clean, and this also applies to the toilet facilities. Unfortunately, in the last few years since opening, the quality of the ingredients has declined and the portions have become smaller. Ouzo is also no longer available quite as freely. However, the price-performance ratio is still above average. A special highlight is the regular buffet. There is also live music here. That's what makes it authentic. Unfortunately the guest room is very loud. We'd love to come back.

Greek food with a difference, the location is a former department store converted into a restaurant. So probably unique in itself. So from the food/taste to the cleanliness and the staff, I can't say anything negative. I left this place with a full stomach and very satisfied and will definitely go there again. The outdoor area is simply a covered area where there are tables and chairs. Personally, I would decorate it with maybe a few Greek statues or something similar. Large parking lot available right next to the restaurant.

It was a very nice evening, with a great ambience and great food... the service tried hard to serve everyone... it was the first time and definitely not the last time we were guests... Great tip for birthdays....🥳

I was a little disappointed yesterday. It was very loud inside, the food was okay without being exciting, we would have liked to have ordered something to drink, unfortunately we sat around unnoticed for 25 minutes. There was also no water bowl for the dog. You should be a little more attentive.

We really enjoyed it, the food was delicious and sitting outside was also very pleasant. Unfortunately, card payment with Visa or MasterCard is not possible, which unfortunately limited our payment process quite a bit.

I can highly recommend it. Staff very friendly.

Rarely experienced such nice staff! Food tasty and plentiful!

We were in this restaurant for the first time today and we were really impressed. Very nice staff with a smile for everyone. The food, which was sumptuous, tasted extremely good and was delivered in a reasonable amount of time after ordering. The price/performance ratio is very good. All in all, we clearly recommend coming here and enjoying yourself. Keep it up👍 Addendum September 7th, 2024: it is full to the brim, almost all seats are occupied. The staff is quick and, despite the stress, has a nice smile for the guests and takes touching care of everyone. We feel very comfortable here! A big thank you for that 👍😘 ...and it was really nice again! We would love to come back 👍 Thank you

Very tasty food, great service :-)
