MENDOZA Argentinisches Steakhaus in Mönchengladbach

Fast, friendly service. The food was delicious and there was something for everyone.

We had a great evening. Reservations are recommended. The food was delicious, and the service was polite and attentive.

went here with colleagues from work, it has a large selection of steak, lamb and seafood dishes. all the food was cooked well and everyone enjoyed it, so much so that we revisited again on our next business trip. the house red wine was particularly good. Staff were pleasant and attentive. would definitely recommend. there is no menu in English however that's easily surmountable by using google translate.

A wonderful evening! Thank you for the great stay. We would love to come back!

We've been coming here at regular intervals for years. The quaint, visually appealing design with slightly separated areas, slightly dim lighting, and rustic wooden tables immediately creates a unique impression (in a positive way). The steaks are excellent and come in various sizes depending on your preference (the waiter will happily serve 400g steaks + side dishes as a "kids' plate" :-D). The taste is nothing to complain about. Other dishes highly recommended include the shrimp cocktail (starter), the rack of lamb (main course - FYI: not served in one piece, but individually on the plate + only if you like garlic), and the pepper sauce (side dish). The restaurant isn't exactly cheap, but it's delicious. The waiters are always friendly and attentive, and as mentioned above, they're even occasionally ready with a humorous remark.

Top 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Love the food and the ambiance... The quality and preparation of the food is always top-notch!!! We've never been disappointed here... Thanks to the chefs and the service.

The food was very good and I liked the decor. The service by Marina and her team was excellent.

Very delicious food, excellent service from Marina. I'll be back❤️

Very tasty food, I've been eating steak there for years and can only recommend it.

We have been going to Mendoza for several years and the quality is always consistently very good. Both the steaks and the seafood are grilled to perfection. I particularly enjoy taking my customers to this restaurant because I have always received good feedback so far. Dear Mendoza team, keep it up.

Always a good address. Friendly, quick staff and all non-steak dishes are really good too. The steaks are a delight. No matter which one, no matter how fried, it's always perfect. You should plan for the fact that you will have to spend a few euros more. But every cent is worth it.

We were with 7 adults and a small child. The food was really great and the service was very attentive and willing to have fun.

The staff was friendly and OK, but unfortunately the food wasn't convincing at all. The steak just didn't taste like anything - no typical meat taste. The condition of the restaurant was also disappointing: everything seemed unkempt, the tables were dirty and not cleared. Overall a very disappointing experience.

Haven't been there for a few years. The inventory is very outdated (the fur covers on the seats are worn through and some have hand-sized holes), there are only paper table sets left, everything is yellowed. The quality of the food also deteriorated (one of 2 baked potatoes was only lukewarm, and the meat was no longer hot at the table). It was okay, but it didn't do justice to the price (at Penny I get fillet steak with the same quality and taste for much less money. Otherwise I always got full from a 200g fillet steak and a baked potato... now I wasn't even full of the grill plate of approx. 300g with baked potato and a portion of princess beans with bacon (I wonder if the quantities given are actually served). The staff was very friendly and... It's a shame, Mendoza used to be the "better" steakhouse in Mönchengladbach, but now it's just mass-produced.

Very friendly staff and boss, unfortunately it smells very unpleasant and the ambience really leaves a lot to be desired. The hygienic conditions could also improve. The food wasn't bad but nothing special either.

Unfortunately, both the food and the ambience have deteriorated significantly since the change in ownership. We actually gave it another chance several times but unfortunately it got worse each time. Meat quality is still top but side dishes and starters unfortunately sometimes tasteless, fried onions wobbly, sauce was more like pudding. The bread that is always available in advance is now only served with 2 dips instead of 3 and instead of the rustic and authentic brown plate it now comes on a sterile white plate. It seems as if they are trying to change things in some places - removed wall decorations, for example. The back door is now fenced off with artificial turf. Sanitary facilities that needed to be changed would have remained unchanged - the toilet lid had been broken off and placed next to the toilet. Unfortunately we are now looking for a new restaurant after 34 years The original staff is still very friendly and accommodating

Wow, such a great steakhouse! The food is fabulous and the waiters are very nice and personable The quality of the meat is outstanding You will receive a very warm welcome and always have the best service I really enjoy coming here See you soon !

The food is very good. The service too. I don't give full stars because the price is not proportionate. If you leave 75 euros per person, then everything should be perfect. My glass of wine was empty, only the second waiter who walked past asked if I would like another wine. The meat should have been hotter and the plates weren't preheated enough. I got my own salt and pepper. After the prawns as a starter, wet wipes were only available when we asked for them. As I said, the price justifies an attentive service. Too bad

As an Argentinian I didn’t really feel identified with this restaurant, food was ok but I wouldn’t really say Argentinian, the meat was good but that was the only Argentinian thing. The fact that is called Mendoza (main region of Wine in Argentina) makes you think you will be able to try some Malbec wine which goes perfectly with a good cut of meat, but there was no Argentinian wines… the side dishes, entrees and desserts were mainly a mix of Spanish food and Argentinian meat. For me a disappointing experience, I was really enthusiastic for this dinner, but the restaurant didn’t meet my expectations at all.

Super, super interesting and delicious food. I can only recommend it. The ambiance was also very nice. Top service.

We've enjoyed going to Mendoza for a long time. Unfortunately, last night was very disappointing. We ordered the grilled platter for two, as usual. Our anticipation was quickly dampened. This time it took an unusually long time. The meat and vegetables were lukewarm. We complained politely. The platter was taken away, and we were told it would take another minute. The cold vegetables remained at the table and were only taken away after further warning. After a long wait, we finally got the platter of reheated meat back. The pork was dry. The quality wasn't up to our usual standards. Unfortunately, the service didn't ask if everything was okay, nor did it offer an apology. No one else came until the table was cleared. After no one came to pay, despite a long wait, we went to the counter. There we were left standing and waiting. I've never experienced such poor and ignorant service at your place. A real shame!

Wir sind Stammgäste seit Bestehen des Restaurants. Das Fleisch war immer schon super, aber nun nach Übernahme durch das Ehepaar Yaramis ist die Qualität noch einmal angehoben worden. Super lecker, immer von Koma und Toni auf den Punkt gegrillt. Wir lieben es und freuen uns immer auf einen schönen Abend mit sehr netter und sympathischer Bedienung, ob Matheo, Leonard oder deren Kollegen. Bernd und Andrea Krauss

Best steaks in Mönchengladbach We have been regular guests since the restaurant was founded. The meat has always been great, but now that the Yaramis couple have taken over, the quality has been raised again. Super tasty, always grilled to perfection by Koma and Toni. We love it and always look forward to a nice evening with very nice and friendly service, whether Matheo, Leonard or their colleagues. Bernd and Andrea Krauss

Always a pleasure. You can't eat steak more perfectly than this. English to the point.

As always, everything was incredibly tasty and we absolutely loved it. The portions are very generous - so much so that we even had to take the rest with us this time. The atmosphere and service are simply great, 10 out of 10. Thank you for the wonderful evening, we will definitely be back!

We have enjoyed going to this restaurant for many years because we have always been very satisfied with the food served there. Even after the change in ownership, which is also noticeable due to the new menu with significantly increased prices, we ate there again. Unfortunately, my wife's favorite dish, the small sirloin steak, is no longer on the evening menu, which we find very unfortunate. The 200g ordered as a replacement. Unfortunately, the meat quality of the sirloin steak was not nearly as good as the small sirloin steak used to be! The pepper sauce I ordered was also a little too thick! What was again top notch was the grill plate with the super tasty lamb chops! The langostinis with the lobster sauce were also a poem! We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Good food, very very good service and a smoky atmosphere 😊 The food today was amazing as always...we keep coming back...and now there's snow crabs too, we're looking forward to it...see you next time 😃

Very good and fast service. Food was very good.

Highly recommended. Very good quality of the food

Delicious food, good service. For the price, getting a bowl at the salad buffet isn't worth it.

We went here for dinner with two couples on Sunday evening. Very good beef and great fish dishes. As a starter we had a salad plate for two people each. This was large, sufficient and with various salads. The service was very good and friendly. So 100% satisfaction, good thing we made a reservation, the restaurant is popular and very well attended.

So first of all I have to thank the excellent staff who are extremely accommodating and friendly. Always there when you need it! Let's get to the food, it's a real treat! Regardless of whether it's rump steak, turkey steak or salmon, the meat dishes are simply amazing. I'm very grateful to have discovered this shop. We have been visiting this restaurant regularly for about 3 years now and can warmly recommend it to anyone who really values ​​quality. The ambience is appropriately rustic with an Argentinian flair, as befits a real steakhouse. Thank you Mendoza

Always my pleasure! A great stop for great steaks for years. However, the flambéed figs are second to none. The staff is super friendly, courteous and competent. A great place to go for a nice and cozy evening.

Yes, the food was very good. I had reserved for 5 people. What wasn't nice was that we were very cramped and the fifth person even sat at a side table - a narrow table that was attached to the larger table. Otherwise everything was really good.

Great food, we have never been disappointed and it is our top steakhouse of choice :)

Perfection of taste. The food simply melts in your mouth.

Yes, it's always a matter of evaluating something, but as you can see, I'm traveling all over the planet... but let's stay here in Germany. One of the best addresses for steaks in Germany! Absolutely recommended! Update 2025: my opinion has not changed

We spent New Year's Eve in Mendoza for the third time today. This year with a new owner. It was fantastic and very tasty. Thanks also to the service staff, you were great. Looking forward to the next time.

Tasty, but sitting at the front door doesn't have to be, it's loud, cold and all that noise therefore points deducted

Lovers of good meat, don’t hesitate.

Our favorite restaurant for steaks for years. Always have a great evening, with the best food, delicious drinks and top service. We also had the pleasure of getting to know the new boss, very personable!

Service and food first class, ambience also very good. Would love to come back

An excellent restaurant. Here you can spend a few hours having a good time. Very good service and very good food.

We go there for a delicious steak every three months. It's always a treat to get such a delicious piece of meat. The food, service and ambience are great. I can only recommend this restaurant, but you should make a reservation here in advance.

The steak was only lukewarm and was not medium rare but well done. My friends' meat wasn't warm enough either. It took a long time to get our drinks even though it wasn't very busy.

Looks like there has been a change of ownership. Already at the entrance you are hanging in front of a chain like cows in a stable 😂: Service catastrophe, extremely unfriendly lady. Food very mediocre. Were there at lunchtime and were forced to eat quickly because they had to do it. When I asked for salt and pepper there was no answer and was subsequently slammed on the table. We were freezing in the draft and there was no heating on. I've been going to this restaurant for 20 years. But that was it for now. 12/17/24 Update: This is not a platform for discussions, but for evaluation. As you can see from my profile, I rate almost every place we have been, whether good or bad. I had dinner with my wife 3 weeks ago and paid by card. Midday. So your open table system is of course very vague, because firstly I don't have a reservation for lunch and secondly, my wife or my brother usually reserves. Thank you for accepting criticism so well, it shows self-confidence and security.

The finished sauce taste urgently needs to be revised. The meat was delicious. Price too high for that. Not again.

Everything tastes delicious there

Wir sind seit langer Zeit Gäste in ihrem Restaurant. So enttäuscht wie bei unserem letzten Besuch waren wir noch nie. Sehr viele Gerichte nicht mehr auf der Karte. Wein bestellt es kam ein ein Glas und nicht mehr eine kleine Karaffe Kellner sagt gibt es nicht mehr. Rumpsteak völlig lieblos suf dem Teller ohne irgendeine eine kleine Garnitur. Weisser Teller Steak drauf fertig!!!! Preise total überzogen. Wir werden ihr Lokal nicht mehr besuchen.

For many years, Mendoza has been our first stop when we want to eat good meat. The greeting from the kitchen has been reduced in size, but it doesn't detract from the taste. Even if the hearts of palm can no longer be found on the salad buffet, there is still a good selection available. The lomo fillet is still of outstanding quality, a vegetable side dish and baked potato go well. Finally, espresso and Crema Catalana or Carlos Primero, recommended. . UPDATE in December 2024 A change has taken place, the ambient air smells fresher. Ordering, service, payment, all very prompt. Until August, 1 liter of Chardonnay/Cabernet was available for Euro 28.90. Now 1 glass costs 0.15 Euro 5.70. A sharp increase! I was surprised by the surcharge of Euro 2.40 for the salad buffet, now Euro 9.90. The prices for meat dishes, on the other hand, have changed only slightly. Do I have to understand this??????

Great place. Very nice service! Food very good! I recommend !!

I recommend Mendoza wholeheartedly, very tasty food, very nice atmosphere. I will definitely come back again. Greetings to everyone 🥰

I recommend nice and friendly service. Quick waiting time for food. Very delicious food, everyone will find something for themselves.

We were very satisfied and would love to come back! Service, waiters - top! 👌 Thanks so much!

Delicious food and good atmosphere” The steakhouse offers really tasty food and a pleasant atmosphere. The prices are reasonable and fair for the quality. It is well attended, which speaks for its popularity. The parking situation is also fine. There are some parking spaces right on the street, but not very many. Alternatively, you can park behind the house, there are additional spaces available there. Access is barrier-free and also suitable for wheelchair users. Overall, a recommended restaurant for anyone looking for good food in a pleasant environment!

malerservice-bongartz@t-online.de ich hatte für meine frau und mich am 26.10.24 tisch 27 reservieren lassen über open table dies wurde auch bestätigt mussten aber am platz 18 platz nehmen.wir sind seid 20 jahren stammgäste haben immer 200 bis 250 euro an verzehr gehabt.bin masslos enttäuscht. rolf bongartz.

As always, the food was perfect and super tasty. Came at a good distance and in a timely manner but not so crowded. We always made sure that everything was in order. And that was definitely it!!! 💯

Very tasty food, nice ambience and friendly staff – absolutely recommended! 👍🏻

The food is really great. The service is also very attentive and friendly. We'd love to come back.

Very good steakhouse. Almost my number 1 in Mönchengladbach

Ich war sehr spät im Restaurant Mendoza habe aber trotzdem noch etwas zu essen bekommen das fand ich total nett obwohl die Küche kurz vor Schluss war. Mein Steak war war leider nicht Medium so wie ich es bestellt habe und obwohl ich es aufgegessen habe aber danach bemängelt habe hat man es storniert. Die Kellner waren wirklich sehr nett und bemüht mein Anliegen im Nachhinein zu begleichen und haben mein Steak storniert. Das findet man selten in einem Restaurant und ich bedanke mich ganz herzlich. Der Wein und die Papas Bravas waren auch wirklich sehr lecker und man bekommt eine wirklich großzügige Vorspeise mit sehr leckeren warm gemachten Brot. Ich komme auf jeden Fall wieder😃

We love the Mendoza. The food is very good, the price is good, the quality is good, the service is very attentive and friendly, the employees here take care of their guests. The atmosphere is very cozy and inviting, you just feel comfortable. We love the entrecote and fillet steak but the skirt steak (fat-free) is also very good. The meat is always tender and tastes simply excellent. The selection is diverse and yet manageable. We have been coming here for many years and are already looking forward to our next visit. Many thanks to Leonard, who always served us very politely and attentively from start to finish.

The best steak that I've ever eat in Germany. Bravi, good food, good bier, good staff and finally I found an Argentinean restaurant with people working there that speak Spanish. Wonderful.

It used to be better here. The quality of meat used to be better. There were hardly any peppercorns in the pepper sauce. You smell like kitchen when you leave the restaurant (modern draft-free ventilation would help.

Delicious food and friendly service

The food isn't bad, but it's not a highlight either. The whole restaurant is quite dark and outdated. Also a bit “crunchy” in some corners. Waiters were nice. However, it took a very long time until it was cleared away. You can go there, if not you haven't missed anything...

Beef fillet excellent ***** very friendly service 😀

We were very satisfied. The food and service was good. We would love to come back.

I had dinner at Mendoza yesterday and I can only recommend it. The service was super friendly and the food was amazing. Such delicious meat and the dips with the bread were also world class. Will definitely come back 😊 Kind regards to the boss 🤗

Food is very tasty. Always worth a visit. Service is top, super nice staff. You can also leave a little more tip there. Unfortunately, the last time I had to cancel an hour before the reservation due to health reasons, I was met with little understanding, which is a shame.

Mini meat, cold thin fries, long waiting time and extreme prices. The breads with the dips were the best. Wife had stomach problems all evening with the fillets in pepper sauce. That's not what it was anymore.

The staff is always super friendly and the food is super delicious. The new owner also has some new items on the menu. Clear recommendation 👍

Very tasty and authentic steak house. I recommend the 174 - beef skewer with patatas bravas. So for real, you have to treat yourself to that. Even if you pay a little more, it is worth every cent. The waiter Leonard simply knows every dish on the menu by heart and looked after us splendidly throughout the evening. Rarely have I had such nice service 🥰

Had a very nice evening! Food was very good, Leonard was friendly and very attentive. The entire atmosphere is just right, we would love to come back.

Great steak! Mega delicious appetizer. All in all great quality 😋 We'll be back!

If you want very good food, with friendly service in a nice atmosphere, you can only recommend the Mendoza Restaurant.

Great restaurant, very friendly. I was able to take my bike battery to the restaurant to charge without any problems. Everything is great. Come again

Very very tasty and great service. Under new management you notice that immediately. We were completely thrilled.

Recently (September 2024) there are also several large seafood dishes, on the menu as a “Seafood Boil” for one or more people. The platter for two people includes a lot of different shellfish, as well as mussels and squid, as well as rice (but not on the platter for one person). The sauce for the seafood was very good, but we found it a bit too intense and we thought it would be better to serve it separately. You also get the necessary cutlery (which is unfortunately missing in many other restaurants) and even gloves and a bib to hang around your neck. The wine list is also new, but unfortunately the Malbec is now missing. Previous visits: We really enjoyed the French onion soup, the lamb chops (loin) and the rump steak and the service was friendly. Exemplary: Not only was the menu available digitally on a tablet at the table, but there was also a note that, in addition to the QR code with the URL to the menu, also contained the information to connect your smartphone to the Internet via WiFi (a note that I miss in most other restaurants - even if a QR code is offered for the menu). On our return visit we chose Chateaubriand for two people, which was carved at the table and garnished with various vegetables. The meat was cooked excellently. So-called filling side dishes, such as potatoes or the like, were not included. Because of the amount of meat and vegetables, that wasn't necessary or would have been too much.

In my opinion the best steakhouse in Mönchengladbach. Highly recommend the lamb fillets flambéed with Pernod. It's a shame that with the new menu the chipirones are no longer offered and only open wines by the glass instead of the carafe. I also think it's a shame that the yellow light bulbs were swapped for cold white bulbs. I personally don't like that because it makes the lighting atmosphere cooler, but I'm perhaps a little too old school in that regard. The food is excellent and the service is courteous and friendly. As I said, in my opinion the best steakhouse in MG.

Went there for the first time yesterday evening. Were thrilled. Very good quality of meat. Service very attentive and super friendly. Definitely coming back.

Today I was in Mendoza again after years and what can I say it was awesome. Keep it up and we'll see each other more often now. Kind regards to the whole team.

Mega steak with everything your heart desires. Plus an owner who cares about the well-being of his guests. It was just awesome. Always my pleasure

The Mendoza in a nutshell, simply brilliant!!! 🤩 My wife and I decided to eat at Mendoza for our anniversary. We couldn't have made a better decision. The staff are very friendly, cheerful and attentive. The atmosphere is very cozy and the food is to die for! The flambéing at the table is another special highlight (not for all dishes) that you should have seen. 😉 We had a wonderful evening and are looking forward to repeating it.

Very good food and friendly service

Very nicely designed restaurant and a very fine selection of dishes. The grill plate is definitely enough for two and the Creme Catalan is highly recommended!!! The salad with the hearts of palm and the white sauce was also super tasty and is also recommended My personal highlight was definitely the Creme Catalan with the crunchy sugar layer on top ❤️✨

Delicious steaks and a nice atmosphere.

Very nice restaurant with extremely courteous staff. The owner even sat down with us for a moment, a very friendly gentleman. The food, especially the meat, was of very good quality, was perfectly fried and simply delicious. The starter was great, the sauces with the bread were incredibly good. Above all, the prices there are still really reasonable. I'd love to come back again, I still have to try the dessert ;)

Top service, top food, there were 8 of us and everyone was very happy.

Very tasty food. Ambiance is very good and the staff is friendly.

If you like meat, this is the right place for you! Great ambience. Mega delicious food. We recommend!

Stopped there for lunch today. Hardly anything has changed in the last few years. The interior is the same. And the food is just as good and tasty as ever. I ate a steak 🥩 with me. We will definitely come back.

Overall okay, salad bar not recommended

6 people and a dog. Staff very friendly. Food very good. I can only recommend. 👍 But make a reservation.

It was very good here, price-performance ratio was completely ok. We will visit more often in the future.

Everything tastes good. The waiters are also very nice and attentive.

Perfect, delicious food and friendly service...that's how it should be!

.....you can safely go out to eat here....something for everyone...see you again soon.....

Very friendly and courteous staff

Don't understand the good rating? The whole place had a musty fryer/garlic smell. When we got up, all of our clothes and hair smelled like a deep fryer. Potatoes, rice and other side dishes were not tasty at all and below average. Steak was okay. I expect more than an “okay” from a steak shop. By the way, I went out hungry because the food made me sick and I couldn't eat it all.
