Millerhaus in Gießen

What a disappointment! Went there for the first time with the family today! The only edible things were the soups and the freshly prepared dishes! The rest was inedible! There are also a lot of rules and children have to pay 3.50 per year of life... although they peck at the pasta 3 times and drink half a glass... absolutely not recommended! Sadly, 240€ was gone and we didn't get full because we really couldn't eat anything. The dishes weren't even lukewarm anymore, the consistency of the meat... horrible... I'm not spoiled, I sometimes order from the Asian snack bar... but that was a flop! The one star goes to the most delicious latte macchiato I've ever had and the Beijing goulash soup!

Buffet very tasty, friendly service

Great! The cost per person is 30 Euros and you can eat whatever you want, as much as you want. Everything is unlimited. The taste was great. I definitely recommend

Very rude staff service, we were in room 2, food was OK. I wouldn't recommend it.

We went there for dinner several times. Everyone enjoyed it. The birthday robot was also very well received. The big aquarium film on the screen is very well received.

Large selection and tastes very good

We were there for a birthday party (Room 1). The service was very unfriendly; no one checked to see if anyone wanted a drink, except once at the beginning. When a man (from the waitress) was clearing plates, a guest wanted to order a beer after ages – all he got was the reply, "But not my place!" Very rude! Furthermore, we were simply kicked out, just before the time was up. That's not how you treat guests. As for the food… many of the dishes were rather lukewarm, and the fried food, which arrived by robot, sometimes took a very long time. The taste is no different from other Chinese restaurants. Many of the plates at the buffet were also dirty. I wouldn't recommend it just because of the unfriendly service!

Visited this great location for the first time today. Great service, very large selection of food and drinks, you also have to mention the robots that bring the food to be grilled to the table. Thank you very much for being here🥰👍🥰

Drinks from the pump don't taste like anything, food is unsalted and doesn't taste good at all. Dark ambience, conversations not possible due to the background noise. Finished plates were not cleared away promptly. Empty containers at the buffet were not refilled for a long time. I also get extreme stomach cramps from eating. Never again.

Delicious food. Great ambience. Recommendation!!!

We like coming here. You have to be careful that there is a bit of activity and then the food is constantly fresh. Everyone is very friendly and even when it's full, the size makes it comfortable.

This is a huge cinema converted into an Asian restaurant. The interior is in Asian style, lots of lighting, buffet. Meat, fish, seafood, vegetables, fruits and sweets. Tables must be reserved in advance. I recommend

The grill was super tasty and very quick too Selection very good

Very large selection at the buffet

Was disappointed buffet wouldn't be refilled early, everything tasted the same.

Especially recommended with large groups. The large space with lots of separation makes it very good for eating together. It is very pleasant with colleagues, friends or family. The situation is special for children! Even if they run around alone, they don't disturb the other guests. And there is an extra area as a separate indoor playground. Unfortunately 8ch was too big to test this too. He looked very funny. The food was good. But the courteous, friendly, fast and helpful service was excellent. And the Bellabots are still an eye-catcher.

I lived in Giessen until 1992 and knew the Millerhaus when it was still The Miller Hall. I used to go there to watch basketball and work out. I stopped by to experience the concept of the Millerhaus restaurant. The food was okay, and I was not too impressed with the staff and atmosphere. The prices are a bit high, but considering the overall concept of the Millerhaus, I was told by other guests that they are okay with the price point. My score is a 4.0.

The last two times I was at the Millerhaus I got food poisoning afterwards. Even on my previous visit, I felt bad afterwards. The food often smells spoiled, which should be a warning sign enough. 34 euros per person for a buffet of this quality is absolutely outrageous. I considered for a long time whether I should involve the food authorities, but after a lot of persuasion I decided to leave it at this assessment. Hopefully this will lead to a rethink on the part of operators.

€34.50 per person is a disgrace! There is no service anymore anyway and the quality was also very poor, the food was too cold, the chicken tasted like pork and the duck was dry. The calamri was really not edible, but the shandy was good and deserved a star. Not quite finished eating, we were asked three times if we wanted to pay, and the comment that we weren't satisfied was misunderstood. Just keep it up 🍀

Buffet with flat drinks for €31.50, taste ok, quality. Well, ambience like a train station hall.

Really great there. The prices are okay.

We like to go there and continue to recommend 👍

We were at the Millerhaus on the occasion of a birthday. We had our table in dining room 4. The Millerhaus is huge (there is room for over 400 people). The selection at the buffet is also huge. There is the typical Chinese Mongolian food, plus many different salads, pizza, dessert, sushi and so on. I have never seen such a large selection of food. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Everything was always available and the buffet was constantly replenished. Opposite the buffet is the drinks system. There are soft drinks, juices, teas and coffee as much as you want. Unlimited food and drinks. The atmosphere is very nice and friendly. We were all thrilled and would love to come back.

Went there again after years because we were at the cinema and wanted to have a quick bite to eat with the kids. But it was really disappointing. In addition to the prices (the 11 year old paid full price), the service was unfortunately bad and the food not good. A waitress offered/showed us 2-3 tables that were free. We sat down at one table. After 3-4 minutes another waitress came and made it very clear to us that the seat was not available (thanks for nothing), so we changed tables. Unfortunately the dishes were not refilled and even after going around 2-3 times, the 8 delicacies and the curry chicken were not refilled (it can happen sometimes - there is enough to choose from). The liver (I think it was chicken) had been in the container for a long time and was extremely dried out. The kids didn't finish the pizza they chose because it was already like leather and had probably been under the heat lamp for ages (the parents then ate it - because throwing it away is not an option). The soup was rated very positively. It's a huge sports hall and the atmosphere is just like that and the noise level is unfortunately very loud. But that wasn't the problem. We were used to it from before. Then at 9.32pm we were informed that the buffet would be cleared in 10 minutes (not the announcement that we had reached the 2.5 hour standard stay (we had only been there for 1.5-1.75 hours). The notice on site said that the buffet closes at 10pm. But unfortunately that wasn't the case. So we had to get dessert quickly. Was it worth it? No. The service was not positive and the people were not courteous. Even the serving trolleys were simply pushed in front of people's feet. The food was unfortunately not tasty overall (opinion of the adults and the kids there). And we were sure that next time we would go back to Linden or Wettenberg (despite the longer drive). And the price is simply too high for what is offered. If you like sushi, you can try it, as it looked positive, but none of us ate it. Or if you down 5-6 drinks in 2.5 hours, you get what you pay for. Money... But we as a group with kids, unfortunately not, because of all the points mentioned above.

Plates dirty, staff sometimes very unfriendly and extremely expensive!

Perfect... Everything just fits there. Large selection, everything delicious

We were so very satisfied. What we didn't like was that the 1 of us at the table decided to have food freshly fried, the 2 at the table did the same after 15 minutes and then everything came together with the robot, 30 minutes later and the food was almost cold. We've never waited so long for something fried.

We went here for the first time on Friday for the dinner buffet. At around 7:30 p.m. the Miller House was almost full and guests without reservations had to be turned away. The selection of dishes was quite large, but the quality was rather mixed. Sushi and cold starters were very good, but the cooked and fried dishes were often only lukewarm to cold and sometimes heated too long. A positive highlight is the selection of drinks, which are included in the price - provided alcohol is avoided. The coffee was also good. All in all, the buffet is reminiscent of the selection of an average 3rd star all-inclusive hotel. 3 stars would be justified for the gastronomy itself, but since the Miller Haus building - built in 1925 - is extremely interesting both architecturally and historically and the ambience sets it apart from other gourmet temples, there is one star on top. Children find the little robots that bring the freshly prepared food to the respective tables amusing.

Large buffet, lots of choice and the food tastes good, courteous staff... always happy

Hello, I'm very disappointed, rude service, if you ask something you get a stupid answer, I had to wait a long time for food, never again.

Meanwhile, at €33.50 per person for a buffet, my price-performance limit has been exceeded. If you would like to try fish and exotic fish, lobster etc., it is definitely good for you. But in the long run it's just way too expensive. The service by the robot is worth a grin, but when you get to the end and 20 people and mostly children have had my plate in their hands to see whether it is their plate or not, I avoid the grill for hygiene reasons but rather. The same applies to the brackets with table numbers and the sauces, as well as the ice cream scoops, which apparently never get cleaned. We urgently need to look into this more! Sushi selection is good. But it doesn't justify this amount either. This is cheaper and even better in Giessen. Charging full price for children aged 10 and over is completely excessive. As an adult, you don't even eat or drink that much. On Sunday the quality of the finished dishes was really not good. Some of the beef was still raw and completely wobbly. Bruchetta completely dry and hard as a bone. The second load was limp and soft. Doesn't the chef look at what he puts out? 2 people still had stomach problems in the evening. We won't visit the restaurant again in the future at this price.

I had the pleasure of eating at Millerhaus and it was a wonderful experience! The food was fresh, aromatic and perfectly prepared - I particularly loved the seafood. The service was attentive and friendly, and the ambience in the restaurant was pleasant and inviting. Everything was clean and well organized, which made the stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely come back!

We always enjoy eating here. And have never had anything to complain about.

First of all, the basics: You pay €33.50 per person for the buffet on the weekend. This includes food, two alcoholic drinks (excluding spirits) and unlimited non-alcoholic drinks (including coffee, espresso, etc.). The stay is limited to 2.5 hours. Now my impressions: The location is huge (the building was previously a kind of multi-purpose hall for various events of the US armed forces) and has a few lounges on the side that are separated from the large hall. Despite the many guests, the noise level was surprisingly low. The staff was friendly, courteous and very quick in their work. (Dishes, for example, were cleared away quickly so that nothing piled up on the table). The selection of dishes was very extensive. From soup to dessert, everything is available in several variations. In addition to the ready-made components, there is the option of having the dishes freshly prepared. (Little gimmick with this thing, you hand over your ingredients + your table number and a kind of moving cat robot brings them to the table when they're ready. Now to the important thing, the taste. To say the least, I was extremely disappointed. Contrary to the recommendations from my wider circle of friends and acquaintances, I unfortunately have to say that the taste quality is rather below average. Almost everything is more or less standard. Also often only lukewarm. The real pizzazz that I expect from Asian cuisine was missing. There was a complete lack of spicy versions of dishes or sauces. Even with the so-called "baked chicken, spicy" I didn't taste any hint of spiciness and apparently everything was taken out of the animal, including cartilage and small bones. The quality of the beef in soy sauce was similarly poor. Of the 5 pieces of meat, 4 were pure fat. You searched in vain for a taste of beef. Only the duck was acceptable, although it naturally lost some of its crispiness as it was kept warm. I can't comment on fish or seafood because I'm not allowed to eat them due to allergies. The side dishes, rice, noodles etc. were okay. Conclusion: All in all, it was very disappointing for me because the quality doesn't rise above average. I have eaten at many Asian restaurants that were cheaper and much better. For this considerable price, I definitely expect better performance. The only option then remains to correct the price-performance ratio a little by consuming high-priced drinks (which are included / e.g. Bionade). My conclusion is that I will definitely refrain from visiting again.

The robot just falls asleep every now and then and you have to wait 2 hours which is a bit stupid but otherwise great

Nice hotel and great service but the price is a bit expensive

An interesting peculiar service and approach when you pay a fixed price of about 30€ per adult. And eat anything and as much as you want. From all the variety of food, you can choose something tasty and interesting.

Great restaurant with a first-class buffet. Something for every taste 👍.

The buffet in the Millerhall in Giessen is really tasty and offers a varied selection. I particularly like that drinks are included in the price, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. However, I have to say that it can be quite loud there at times, which spoils the atmosphere a bit. If you are looking for a quieter environment this could be a disadvantage. Overall, the Millerhall is a good choice for a rich buffet and a sociable evening.

Nice restaurant with very tasty food and drinks as well as great service. It is also freshly prepared in the evening.

Were there today. It was delicious and it was midweek and quite pleasant and quiet. Very tasty food lots of choice. Great atmosphere, you feel comfortable. Would love to come back.

As always everything was great!!

Very cool location, great food and super nice staff

More appearance than reality... not really clean... food was ok but nothing special either

Enjoyed the buffet with our family at Christmas. The food, ambience and service were very great. Except at the end, we had to wait a long time for the waitress to pay. Otherwise great!

Unfortunately we had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. The staff (a woman) was unfriendly and made us feel unwelcome. We were pushed into a dark corner, which made the atmosphere very unpleasant for us. Overall, not a place we would want to return to.

Unfortunately, the food was a disaster, everything was too soggy or burnt. The fresh things that were given to the kitchen were overcooked and it was all pretty much inedible. Fish and meat were fried for too long that they had no taste at all and were completely dry. I was asked several times in an unpleasant way that the children's plates were still quite full. When I then mentioned that the children didn't like it and couldn't eat it, they said quite cheekily that the plates had to be cleaned (as if it was about the money for me) This is not the way a restaurateur should treat their customers. Unfortunately an absolute disappointment. I wouldn't recommend anyone.

A good place I recommend visiting

Today's meal was mediocre as some of it was cold and it didn't meet my expectations. This is my personal opinion.

We were there for the first time. Very large Chinese buffet restaurant. Lots of employees who were constantly refilling and cleaning. We found service, alcoholic drinks only, a bit slow, but that's ok with me. The food was ok. What doesn't work for me is: We had a man with walking difficulties with us and of course we parked in the designated parking space. Parking permit is available. BUT, the fact that the entrance is not the one next to the parking lot, but on the OTHER side of the house is extremely cheeky and mean. Well, there is a large space in front of the "main entrance", put up signs and let people with walking disabilities park there.

We were very satisfied. Food and drink all good. The offer is huge and sufficient. The robots are a great idea. Unfortunately the background noise wasn't that great.

Cold dishes, of poor quality for €40.50 per person….. We were there on Christmas Day. Had reservations for 7 people. Despite Christmas, the location was far from fully booked. When we arrived, we were put in a corner by the kitchen where it smelled extremely like grease. When asked, we were implemented, small + point. The location feels like a gymnasium (it was probably once a cinema) except for alcoholic drinks, it's self-service. The walk to the buffet revealed a disgusting picture. All, but absolutely all, spoons or tongs (for putting food on a plate) were extremely dirty and greasy. You could only touch them with a napkin if you didn't want to mess up your clothes. Unfortunately, the food (everything that was tried) was at most lukewarm and the meat was not of good quality. You could also have your food fried, which took on average around 25-30 minutes and was brought to the table by robots. Here, too, the food came to the table lukewarm, but far too fried. The price, the quality and above all the cleanliness of this mass processing contribute to this rating. We're not coming anymore.

It was a very nice evening and the staff was very nice and very friendly We will definitely recommend it to others 😊 and what's very good is that you have a very good regulation: if you return the plate with more than 100 g of food you have to pay an extra € 10 👍👍👍 that's how some people dig Don't fill up your plates, just put a few things on your plates to try.

Very nice shop, would love to go there again and again.

Bad price/performance. Booked in October at the old price, now at Christmas more is being asked because the price has been increased. Food so-so, crowded, long wait.

Very large selection and good atmosphere

Very good buffet with a lot of choice. Thumbs up! However, you should avoid it at Christmas.

Highly recommended for families with children. 👍

Good selection of different dishes. Large dining room, but there is a reasonable background noise due to the high ceiling. I also really liked the selection of drinks, which are included in the price.

Went there today with 13 people for a “work Christmas dinner”. Sat in a separate room. Service was friendly and attentive. The food was good and the selection was huge. Restaurant is clean and well maintained. Everyone liked it. The general conditions can be viewed everywhere and can be read in advance on the Internet. So you know what to expect. We didn't have any problems. Gladly again.

Always my pleasure. Great selection

Super tasty. The robot cats that bring the prepared food are cute. I really like the regulation with the food and drink that goes back, which has to be paid for extra.

Yesterday I wanted to pick up an order. Before I could say "Hello", there was an unfriendly answer without any explanation: too early, wait. What is the lady at the reception actually imagining? Every additional guest received the same "friendliness"...we wanted to make a reservation there with several people for the holidays. We rejected that. I don't need to be treated so unkindly. And in addition to the poor, impossible to speak German. Dealing with guests is not for everyone!!!!

We were there with a larger group and sat in a separate room, which made the visit to this huge hall more pleasant. We had a few children with us who got their money's worth in the play area. The last time we were there was 4 years ago and it got so bad. Starting from the quality of the food, the price including the limited time. The service was a disaster. Sometimes we had to wait over an hour for the plate from the grill. The highlight came at the end. We also had to leave our table because of new guests. The grill plate, for which I had to wait an hour, arrived when we were already cashing in. We had additional alcoholic drinks and they tried to charge us twice!!! And last but not least, a tip was boldly given that we should pay! That was our last visit there.

We really enjoyed being here, now for a long time. In our opinion, the buffet time of 2.5 hours for €33.50 per person is a disgrace for this price. We were with a group of 14 adults and 11 children and they paid meticulous attention to the 2.5 hours and we were thrown out on the spot. Grilled food took up to 75 minutes to arrive at the table. Much of the buffet was not warm and not as spicy as it once was. The quality has deteriorated a lot. We won't come anymore.

A table was reserved for an event with 16 people, unfortunately we were practically thrown out after 1.5 hours because our table was supposedly further reserved. Unfortunately, we were not informed that the table can only be reserved for a short time, so it doesn't matter what the amount is paid. If we had known, we would have reserved somewhere else. They have lost us as customers. Won't recommend anyone.

Food good. Fight on Saturday lunch buffet. A lot of people, sometimes too many.

Good ambience, but the food was lukewarm/cold and often had a watery aftertaste. My stomach didn't like it that much either.

Nice selection of food and drinks. But ordering Mongolian on Saturday doesn't make much sense, we waited 45 minutes for the food and by then I was full from the buffet. Otherwise ok. Nice selection of sushi and dessert too.

Very tasty, food prepared quickly, staff very friendly

Were there with 4 adults and 6 children on a Saturday evening. The two 6-year-olds were not allowed to play in the play area and were also harshly attacked, so that one of them cried. Disappointing that the waiting time at the grill was long because there was so much going on, it didn't matter, you could kind of understand it. But when it came, everything was fried very dead (shrimp and lamb). But some dishes at the buffet were not refilled, even after several inspections. No bananas, no churros. Unfortunately the sushi was nothing either. It's a shame overall, I've eaten better here before. Guess somewhere else next time.

Good food, good drinks and very nice ambience. Very nice service. We were there with the children and the children were super busy. There is a great play area for the children, so that parents can eat in peace and relaxation. The chocolate fountains are a real eye-catcher 🤩

Delicious food, good selection at the buffet. But it has become very expensive for families with children compared to last year. It's also a shame that you can only sit for 2.5 hours otherwise there is an additional charge per person. The playhouse is great for the children. But it's still a nice visit every time. Once again very rude service towards the children. In the future, we'll prefer to cook at home with the family where the children can play in peace and the parents can sit as long as they want. The wedding day didn't have the lovely evening that we thought it would be! The food has become very neutral. We're not coming anymore!

Unfortunately, it's also a restaurant where you have to say: it started off strong and then faded quite a bit 😞 In the beginning we enjoyed eating there often. In the meantime, not only have the prices risen significantly, but at the same time the offering has been reduced. But what mainly bothers me is that all the dishes from the buffet are only lukewarm at most, and some are even cold. We have pointed this out on the last 3 visits, but nothing has changed. Savings are being made in the wrong place and the heating elements under the food are on the back burner 😞 On the last visit, there was also half raw chicken with the food. We pointed this out to the waitress, but it was not removed from the display. We will not be visiting the restaurant again and based on our experience I cannot recommend it.

Great, incredibly big, great selection, delicious food and drinks, of course a little louder but the food is worth coming back. 👍👍👍👍👍

The food was buffet style at lunchtime. It was attractively prepared and also tasted good. You have to complain about the cold plates. The plates are not warmed up, so the food gets cold very quickly, especially in the colder seasons. It would definitely be a small purchase to remedy this.

Good but the price is very high

Buffet at its finest. Relaxed atmosphere, well organized.

Of course, with such a wide variety of dishes, you can't expect everything to be a culinary delight, but I had to say that the buffet was generally bland and tasteless. From cheese balls to pizza 🍕 etc. everything had the same taste but luckily that's in the eye of the beholder. I think the price is quite high for what's on offer and what you're offered. Basically, you're sitting in a gym with a projector on the wall and loops on the ceiling. All in all OK but not recommended for dates etc because of the scenery seems rather restless because of the many people. The robot that brings the prepared food is funny + but can also be slightly annoying after the 5th birthday song

The staff are very friendly and the food is very good as it has a very family atmosphere

The "food" was terrible! No taste and way too greasy, so you spend half the night in the bathroom! The children were sent out of the play area in regular checks with very cheeky words, others were told to play more quietly, that's not possible at all, they are children!!!! A walki talki was attached to the wall and used to repeatedly announce that children over 6 years of age should please go outside. Price/performance is not right at all! It tastes better in every cheap Chinese snack bar! You'll never see us again

Achtung: Nicht für Besuch mit Kindern geeignet. Kinder werden verfolgt, unfreundlicher Manager läuft zwischen den Tischen und der Spielecke um Kinder zu kontrollieren und sich die ganze Zeit mit Eltern beschäftigen.

I would not think about visiting this restaurant again. Some of the waiters were ugly unfriendly and intrusive, which made our restaurant visit today stressful and due to waiter’s repeated interruptions we could hardly enjoy our meal in peace

This institution is not suitable for families with children! Children are NOT allowed to play in the play area. Expect unpleasant hints from the store manager, who walks around between the tables and play area. Food ok without variety, staff is acceptable. We'll never go there again for a friendly meal with kids!

We thought it was great, the food was delicious, fresh and the selection was simply amazing! The price is also great at €31.50 per person and the drinks were included in the price 😉

Find the food delicious Ambience is very appealing Lots of space, very nice service So everything is good :)

I don't think I need to write more 😊

Definitely something different, great ambience. Choice of food is standard. The dishes that are freshly prepared include everything from chicken, kangaroo to blue shark. The buffet was always well filled.

So far it's fine, if it were written in Chinese it would be exactly right

A great experience that requires self-discipline so that you don't burst with the great offer :-) 2 beers etc are included and non-alcoholic drinks can be enjoyed freely as desired!

We really enjoy eating there. Especially with a lot of people, as there is a lot of space there. Unfortunately it's always a bit cool there because it's a huge complex. There is even a nice, large play area for children up to 6 years old.

We had a lovely evening. The buffet is very varied and there is also a chocolate fountain. The robot that serves the food from the grill and occasionally congratulates you on your birthday is cute but also strange when it replaces people.

It was my first time there. Despite its size, it wasn't overly noisy. The food was good, there was a very large selection of different food and drinks. The service, when it was needed, was quick. The two R2D2 are funny. We'd love to come back.

Huge selection, I didn't find a dish that wasn't tasty. Great, I'll go there again soon

A huge palace. But despite the size, the noise level is pleasant. Very tasty food with a large selection. You can either choose ready-made. or have raw things put together and prepared, which are then brought to the table by the robot cat. Also very nice for family celebrations, as the rooms are somewhat separated from the rest of the guests.

Completely satisfied... food was delicious, selection was large and everything was always there

Food was cold and everything tasted the same or was plain. I wanted fried vegetables, but they smelled like fish and tasted like fish. I find fish disgusting. We definitely won't be coming back.

Everything was great, tasted wonderful, friendly staff...

The ambience is very good. The food was cold to lukewarm, deathly fried, bland overall, too dry. The selection was very large, although less is often more. Non-alcoholic drinks are included in the price.

Individual tables in a huge room. Anyone who likes it. Small rooms are also available.
