Mückenschlösschen in Leipzig

Super nice location, with lovely and friendly staff. Would love to come back

Dear Mückenschlösschen team, thank you for everything for my husband's 75th birthday. Our guests were full of praise. We really enjoyed the hours we were able to enjoy with you. The food for brunch, the service and the friendly service get full points. We'll definitely be back. 👍👍👍👍

Very nice atmosphere! And above all, very friendly staff!!!!! Price/performance is completely okay!!! We'll definitely come back!!!

I was given a voucher for this restaurant and tried to reserve a table within the validity period. Unfortunately this was not possible for various reasons. When the voucher had expired and I asked if I could still redeem it, it was refused. My request for a refund or an alternative solution was also rejected on the grounds that this would not be possible after the deadline had expired. Legally it may certainly be correct. From a customer perspective, however, I find it disappointing that a paid amount (€100) simply expires, even if you have tried to reserve a table within the valid period. My conclusion: I would no longer buy or give away a voucher here, because in case of doubt you are stuck with the amount, even if you tried to take advantage of the offer.

I was here on Easter Monday afternoon. The ice cream and the chai latte tasted great and the waiter was also extremely friendly. Next to the patio is the Rosenthal, which creates a nice ambience.

Essen schrecklich und Personal unfreundlich Unglaublich wie sich dieses Restaurant halten kann. Ich habe noch nie so schlecht gegessen…

Pleasant, with privacy, but renovation work necessary in places. See baby changing table, ladies' toilet, dirty wallpaper. Food ordinary, but nice.

We have been guests at the Mückenschlösschen for many years and are always very satisfied.

I highly recommend this restaurant. The problem is, there's no parking directly at the Mückenschlößchen.

Ah, it was very nice there for the crime dinner, nice atmosphere. 4.6**stars would be correct. Why ? There's something special there, at least for me. If the food is a little cold, you have to check whether everything is okay. I really thought about it for a long time, but the actors' performance was just great. But something really needs to be done.

We have a dinner show with 5 "courses," if you want to call it that. The "potato soup" with wild mushrooms (2 quarters of mushrooms) stood out in particular. It tasted worse than any Magi packet soup and, in terms of salt concentration, was more likely to kill an elephant. On the other hand, the fish lacked any salt, although that wouldn't have changed the fact that the fish had a terrible consistency, and the side dishes (obviously only warmed-up frozen food) were bland and incongruous. But enough with the criticism of the food; the "show" had everything from first-grade dialogue to a performance that only parents could have been proud of, to a stock image PowerPoint presentation that was equivalent to the quality of a student who realizes five minutes before their presentation that they're about to give it. The ambiance also matched the rest of the show. There were far too many people in the room, so everyone sat extremely close together. If one were to praise the decor, one would call it historic. Since there was no separation in the room (you sat right next to other groups), the noise level was deafening. For the price charged, the service was outrageous and disrespectful to the guests. If you're considering going here, please order food and watch a movie at home.

A great classic between Rosental and Waldstraßeviertel. Best seasoned meat in town! The house beer is great. Really highly recommended, especially suitable for larger groups!

I really like it here! Most of all because of the unique friendliness and attentive care of the people working there. There is a regular but varied menu with special offers, a kids menu and the inside and outside are very nicely arranged.

Restaurant Mückenschlösschen: A place to feel good The Mückenschlösschen restaurant impresses across the board. As soon as you enter, you will notice the inviting atmosphere, which is perfect for enjoying food and drinks. Particularly noteworthy is the extremely friendly and courteous staff, who make your stay an entirely pleasant experience. The Mückenschlösschen also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine. The Wiener-style schnitzel was a real pleasure and testifies to the quality of the cuisine. In summary: The Mückenschlösschen is definitely worth a visit. Everything is just right here – from the friendly service to the atmospheric ambience to the delicious food. A place where you like to stay and feel completely comfortable.

We celebrated my mother's 85th birthday in the Mückenschlösschen with 14 people. The entire package was absolutely amazing!!! Starting with the nice and very good preliminary discussion and advice, to table decorations, food, etc. everything was to our complete satisfaction. We had a great afternoon/evening. The service was super friendly and extremely attentive. We felt very comfortable and would like to thank you again.

Very nice and considerate employees. We went on a Sunday and it was packed. Under the circumstances, I'd say it was absolutely OK. The entire buffet was also very rich and varied 👍 absolutely top. The warm dishes were OK. but nothing that knocks you off your feet.

Unfortunately I have to give a sobering review of the brunch. We were really looking forward to the day, but first let's talk about the positive. The staff was very friendly and not too intrusive. We stayed in the smaller room downstairs and to our surprise it wasn't full. Visually well furnished. Unfortunately that was it. A lot of things just didn't convince us, four different people, in terms of taste. For example: the salmon, fruit, cheese or even the scrambled eggs all had a dismal taste and were therefore not of good quality. The rolls were all hard, ok they are baked rolls, but I have had better experiences. Tiramisu was also described online, which is what I was after, but unfortunately it wasn't served. We hardly got any hot food because we were so hungry. But there was a lot of meat and few alternatives. I hope the review stands. Unfortunately it is not invented. Unfortunately, you paid too much money here. Very unfortunate!

I celebrated my birthday here and it was great. All of my guests enjoyed it.

The food was very good. Despite the full house, the food came quickly.

Great service, great ambience and delicious food

Great place for a cozy meal. The dishes were creative and tasteful, and the staff was very accommodating.

Very tasty food and friendly service.

A perfect experience! The food was delicious, the service was attentive and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

Very attentive staff, good food and delicious mixed drinks.

Great house, great service, gladly again and highly recommended.

Everything is great except for the lighting (the bulbs are partly defective) and the pendant light flickers.

I can highly recommend the gourmet brunch. Delicious breakfast, followed by a hearty lunch.

The two of us went to the crime diner. Persona was super nice. Food was super delicious. The only thing I would say was the atmosphere, with apparently various company parties being held in the hall, was a disturbing factor. You should know that you are taking part in such an event with around 100 other people. Oh, what would also be cool would be a hint where you can park cheaply.

We were here for a crime dinner with a 5-course menu. Everything tasted very good. Special requests were fulfilled (allergy to certain foods). Vegan guests were also well catered for.

Christmas party with a crime dinner “One brush stroke too many”. We were very satisfied. I would be happy to repeat it again for another crime thriller.

We were there for lunch and had a burger and the beetroot gnocchi. The food was very tasty and the service was extremely friendly and attentive. Prices are high but reasonable. Gladly again.

We had pre-ordered to end a lovely afternoon. We had also been to a few dinner shows. Everything is wonderfully organized, the staff is very friendly, polite and accommodating. Always a good address and the food is delicious, highly recommended.

I went to the Christmas party, we were received very well, with a glass of champagne or juice. Afterwards we were dressed at the table. There was a 4 course menu. There was already bread and various bread toppings at the table, all of which tasted wonderful. There was starter soup, salads, duck with red cabbage and dumpling. Then dessert. It I really liked it and tasted it too. I just thought it was great. I can only recommend it. The waiters were very hardworking and friendly, we didn't miss anything. I can do the mosquito lock recommend.

Great food. And the duck out of the house for Christmas was really great.

Ambiente ist gut.brötchen knochenhart,wurst aus der tüte.mittagessen unter niveau.nicht so schnell wieder.sehr aufmerksames peronal

A very nice house and a very friendly staff.

After a long time we were eating in our favorite restaurant (until now). Unfortunately the service (male) was the last thing!! Rude, arrogant, totally incompetent!!!

We went to Christmas brunch in a beautiful little castle in the middle of the Waldstrasse district. The food was good and plentiful, the selection was also okay. The service was friendly and hardworking. Overall everything went well :)

We had booked the Scottish Christmas. If you expect something Scottish and Christmassy, ​​stay away. The ambience and execution were reminiscent of a coffee trip, but unfortunately without an electric blanket. The quoted price of €110 per person is a disgrace for this “service”.

Good German restaurant, with great cuisine!

The quality has deteriorated a lot.

A nice restaurant with super friendly service

We had a successful Christmas party with retro comedy.

We went to the Advent buffet and unfortunately it wasn't convincing. As a meat eater I would probably give the food 4 stars, but as a vegan I would unfortunately only give it 1 star. Apparently oat milk was supposed to cost €2 extra and the vegan selection was very disappointing and not signposted. Of the warm food, potato dumplings, red cabbage, Brussels sprouts and frozen mixed vegetables were basically the only vegan food. As a hearty bread topping there was only sausage and cheese and no other spreads. The cake and stollen were supposedly vegan, but somehow the statements were generally a bit confusing, as the scrambled eggs were also supposed to be vegan, which makes me think that the chef doesn't know the difference between vegan and vegetarian. My meat-eating companion described the rest of the meal as mediocre, not bad but nothing special either. Otherwise the building is very beautiful. But the rooms were very full with many guests. Parking in the area costs €1.50 for half an hour and is limited to a maximum of 3 hours.

I just found our seat very awkward. Everything else was fine. It was "rammed full".

You get this as a substitute for an Advent brunch for €37.50 as a vegan alternative if you get unexpectedly ill and can't go to the restaurant yourself. The restaurant had 4 hours to pack the brunch replacement to go. Disappointing and inedible.

Very nice house and great service. The food is good, but you could make a lot of improvements with small changes

The service is really behind, we had a great place for 10 people in the middle room with a long sofa bench and we completely consumed the goose, roast pork and desserts. Really great.

It was OK, but I've also eaten better

Yes, it is the ideal place for brunch... attentive service, sufficient buffet quiet atmosphere

Family celebration, 12 people, very attentive staff, excellent food...

We were there for brunch. It was full and therefore very loud. The food, medium restaurant quality, the meat like shoe leather, the side dishes (potatoes, etc.) like they were made for a retirement home, so much too soft. The cake was very dry and the pudding tasted like it came from a tetra pack. The best thing was the parking space in front of the door, 8.50 euros for 3 hours.

We went to this lovely restaurant for brunch for the first time and were very impressed.

Nice atmosphere, nice service, very good food.

We spent a lovely evening there with our family. From reserving the table of 14 to paying... EVERYTHING was TOP 👍🏻 Absolutely delicious food and therefore an absolute recommendation!

Everything 5 stars, service food drinks 👍🏼

I recommend the chocolate cake as a desert 🤗

A lovely evening at the crime dinner with great actors (and I don't just mean the actors 😉), excellent service and good food and drink. Highly recommended. However, the parking situation is still catastrophic. We would love to come back 😊

The food itself was really great... Only lunch is served for breakfast and is cold at lunchtime. All the waiters were very friendly and always had a smile on their faces... The ambience is very nice, but at brunch There are a lot of guests... There are probably too many guests (or not enough waiters)... Nevertheless, you can recommend it with a clear conscience...

Very pleasant atmosphere with incredibly friendly and attentive service staff. The food was great, even if there were only two soups - pumpkin and spinach-broccoli. I'll be back!

Very nice different rooms, stylishly furnished. Very good for smaller celebrations. The staff and the operator are very nice..

Pleasant atmosphere, good service, tasty food at fair prices.

Very nice restaurant and very friendly staff, food great.

Very nice Or! Food very tasty and plentiful, service great and there are many events. Will definitely come back.

Thank you for the great hospitality and attentive service! I was very excited

The food looked good but was very salty and the schnitzel was really dry and tough. There were very few guests but we had to wait almost an hour for two meals

I came here before a concert around the corner and was very impressed by the ambience of the house, the very nice waitresses and of course the delicious food. I will probably always fly in here before concerts 👍🏻

We went to the Mückenschlösschen for the Celtic night. The reception in the garden with a campfire and mead was lovely. The mead is very, very tasty and was a good start to the evening. There are parking spaces on the street, we were lucky and got one, there aren't really many that are empty because the residents can also park, the parking fees are very high and have to be paid by 11 p.m. The buffet food was good. The suckling pig was outstanding, as was the Breat and Pudding dessert, as well as the Irish casserole. We were very positively surprised. The starter was served in bread which was cool too. The moderator/singer of the band led the evening very well. The program of singing, tap dancing and a fire show was very beautiful and worth seeing. What isn't well solved is how the tables are set up and what you really see at the back. In our opinion, we need a stage that brings the dancers and singers further to the top. You have problems seeing anything, especially with the dancers, and there isn't enough space for everyone to stand up. Then the others can't see anything anymore. Unfortunately, that's a real shame. You have to put the tables differently. The mood was very good. We just had problems understanding what was being sung or said through the microphone. That's a bit of a shame. What really needs to be improved in our opinion is the service and logistics. You ordered something to drink and waited a long time. There were table numbers that were asked for when ordering and yet the drinks were not delivered in a targeted manner. The appetizer was served, it took a long time, just like the first round of drinks. This can be organized much better.

The three of us visited the mosquito castle on the edge of the forest. When we ate there, there was only one other table occupied by guests besides ours. This didn't change significantly during our visit. I found the ambience to be a bit sophisticated but appealing. The service was very friendly and quick at the table. The food itself also came quickly enough. We left satisfied.

Super tasty burgers, very nice beer garden, great service...

Went there with several people, the atmosphere was great and the staff was very nice! Unfortunately, in our opinion, the food was not recommended.

I had fond memories of the Mückenschlösschen and that's why we went to see it. I decided on the venison goulash and was really looking forward to it. However, in this case the price/performance ratio did not match. My girlfriend and I had three pieces of meat on our plate, loads of thickened gravy and garnish on the puree with sprouts... doesn't fit at all for a Christmas/autumn meal. How much does €21.95 cost? The portion was sufficient, which was fine. You can make such great sauces from deer meat 🙄 I'm really disappointed and wouldn't recommend it! Don't just increase the prices but also pay attention to quality and don't satiate the guest with thick gravy. Too bad! The staff was very friendly!

Not suitable for disabled people as there are steps into the restaurant and the men's toilet is on the 1st floor and without a lift. Even though we had reserved a day in advance, the table was not set. The service was fine. The food was just average, we expected more here. Both dishes were not hot. The plates were overloaded and there was no separate plate for the duck (bones) with the duck. The red cabbage was under the duck, if you wanted to eat it you had to move the plate. This style of serving existed in the 80s. We expected more based on the positive other reviews. Unfortunately, not a successful visit to the restaurant.

Very friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. Very good food. We've been to brunch several times and once for a crime thriller dinner. Just great. Intolerances are also addressed without any problems. I can only recommend it. We'd love to come back.

We chose the Mückenschlösschen (the restaurant) as our wedding location and were totally satisfied. The food was delicious, the staff was friendly and quick, the organization ran smoothly and the atmosphere was very nice. Big praise especially to the restaurant manager, who kept an eye on everything throughout the entire event. Highly recommended.

We were here last Saturday for the Celtic Night 🌓 and this event was just great, entertaining and very funny 🤩 surrounded by a very delicious buffet 👍😋Also a big thank you to the entire Mückenschlösschen team for the great service and the very nice evening 🥳🫶

Anyone who is happy with mediocrity will get their money's worth here. The service is good, although the lack of staff causes noticeable tension.

Cozy atmosphere! Delicious food! Nice service! Great concept!

We had reserved a table for yesterday. The reception was nice. The drink order went quickly, but that was about it. The lady who brought the drinks didn't have a friendly smile and couldn't even pronounce the names of the drinks and whispered. The food reminded me of cafeteria food. The schnitzel we ordered was just dripping in fat. A huge scoop of peas was carelessly put on the plate and the taste of the food was a 3 out of 10. The salad with chicken with mustard-honey dressing that we ordered was well prepared, but that was it. Tomatoes hard like kohlrabi, only greens and the chicken and the sauce you had to look for. After we finished eating, the plates remained on the table for half an hour. Nobody came. I had to get someone to order drinks because we had been sitting dry for a long time. There were 3 tables occupied inside and one table outside. They preferred to chat or take care of other things, but not the guests. There were enough staff. No recommendation from me!!! The money would be better spent in another restaurant.

Fantastic wedding celebration in the Mückenschloss ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you are looking for a perfect place for an unforgettable wedding celebration, we can warmly recommend the Mückenschloss! Professional and friendly team: The entire team at the Mosquito Castle, led by Mr. Kursawe, was extremely professional, friendly and courteous. We were deeply impressed by their attention to detail and commitment. Personal preparation: The preparation with Mr. Kursawe was almost family-like and very friendly. This personal touch made us feel like we were in good hands right from the start. Perfect organization: The team's smooth organization and professional collaboration made it easy for us to enjoy every moment of our celebration to the fullest. Everything went like clockwork, which is testament to the excellent planning and implementation. Magical ambience: The ambience of the mosquito castle is simply breathtaking. It formed the perfect backdrop for our wedding celebration and enchanted not only us, but also all of our guests. Special highlights: A special highlight was the traditional sawing of tree trunks, for which the Mückenschloss team had prepared everything perfectly. The idea for this tradition was also provided - great service! All-round feel-good atmosphere: We and our guests felt extremely comfortable and cared for at all times. The atmosphere created by the team contributed significantly to us being able to fully concentrate on our party. Culinary highlight: The food also deserves a special mention. The quality and presentation of the food was first class and exceeded our expectations. Unbeatable value for money: What particularly surprised us was the prices. Compared to other locations in Leipzig and given the excellent service, the price-performance ratio at the Mückenschloss is incredibly good and unbeatable. Conclusion: Our wedding celebration in the Mückenschloss was simply perfect. The professional and at the same time personal team, the magical ambience, the excellent organization and the excellent price-performance ratio made our big day an unforgettable experience. We can highly recommend the Mückenschloss for weddings and other special occasions. A big thank you to Mr. Kursawe and the entire Mückenschloss team for their exceptional service and hospitality. We are looking forward to being guests at the Mückenschloss again soon!

I was last in the Mückenschlösschen about 10 years ago and remembered it better. The building and the outdoor space are still beautiful. The playground for the children is also great and relieves a bit of boredom while waiting. Like many other locations, there is probably a shortage of staff here too. It felt like the service staff were rather untrained, but friendly. We were there for a company party. It took a very long time for drinks to be brought to the table or for new drink requests to be asked. The food was buffet style and unfortunately not that good. The vegetables are mushy, the meat is dry, the tomato mozzarella is no longer quite fresh. There were certainly a few tasty things there, but overall the Mückenschlösschen was not convincing that evening.

Unfortunately the food was terrible. Drinks such as beer, wine, etc. were served warm. We had to order ice cubes to be able to drink these drinks halfway. The only thing that was cold was the espresso. You can't laugh about it anymore!!! Apart from that, the drinks only came after repeated requests. Unfortunately I can't give a better verdict.

Morning and lunchtime brunch great, great staff and great price, everything ok

Unfriendly staff, the drinks are placed at the beginning of the table with the words: "You can distribute them. We were looking forward to the burger weeks that they advertised on the website...unfortunately this promotion was no longer valid.

Excellent service, especially with a large group. Tables are set up, everything is served quickly, all with a smile.

We like to eat out as a group in various places in Leipzig, especially breakfast/brunch. This time we chose this restaurant. Ambience was really nice, with the different rooms. It was well attended, but not too loud. The buffet was very neatly prepared. Unfortunately, the food was very average, which didn't really match the ambience. We had reserved a table for 4 people, unfortunately a friend was unable to attend at short notice, so the three of us ate... Shortly before paying the bill, we were informed that we also had to pay for the 4th person.. I've never experienced anything like that in a restaurant. I can only strongly advise against reserving a table there if you are a larger group (e.g. family celebration) and you cannot calculate whether everyone will actually show up, as you will still have to pay. We thought that was a real impudence and will no longer eat there. Of course the restaurant has to plan, but then you should communicate this early and not just before paying the bill. All in all, a decent but average experience. Ambience is really nice, the rest was ok, but nothing more

When we visit Leipzig, we love eating at the Mückenschlösschen and inviting others to do so. We haven't been able to use all the possibilities of the house, which looks back on a long and interesting history. In addition to the restaurant on the ground floor, there are rooms on the first floor and outdoor spaces in the immediate vicinity of the Elstermühlgraben. In addition to freshly prepared dishes a la carte (we can recommend), meeting for brunch (we have also tried it) is a nice experience. The many events for special occasions such as Christmas are still on our list. The service is friendly and attentive, we are already looking forward to the next time.

Yesterday, Sunday August 25th, 2024, I was invited by my mother-in-law to brunch at the Mückenschlösschen. There the six of us enjoyed brunch together at a beautifully set table. The brunch left nothing to be desired, it was very varied and very tasty. Everything tasted very good. The service and staff were very friendly and accommodating. I can definitely recommend it. But I would go there again. 5 stars *****.

The Mückenschlösschen restaurant is really an insider tip in Leipzig! I went there for dinner with friends and we absolutely loved it. The ambience is very cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxing evening. The menu offers a great selection of dishes, all freshly prepared and incredibly tasty. I was particularly impressed by the quality of the ingredients and the sophisticated preparation. The staff at the Mückenschlösschen also deserve the highest praise. They were extremely attentive, friendly and always had a smile on their faces. You can immediately tell that they care about the well-being of their guests. We felt very well looked after throughout the entire visit. I can recommend the Mückenschlösschen to anyone who is looking for good food and a warm atmosphere in Leipzig. A big compliment to the entire team for a wonderful evening.

We were there for the gourmet brunch. The service was friendly and attentive. Unfortunately the food was nothing special. Yogurt was only available upon request. The scrambled eggs were quickly empty and were only refilled after a while. The same thing at lunch, the dumplings and sauce were empty and only refilled upon request. The potato soup tasted like packet soup and the vegetables were frozen imperial vegetables. All in all we were disappointed.

We held our wedding reception at the Mückenschlösschen and it was just perfect! The preparation for the wedding was top, always friendly staff, great service and the price-performance ratio was just right! I can only recommend it to everyone for a wonderful wedding! ☺️

Service was nice but unfortunately very busy with preparations for a larger celebration in the evening. The drinks took a bit of a long time and unfortunately there was a normal one instead of Rabarberaperol.

Always nice here. One of our favorite restaurants in Leipzig...

We went to the summer theater Alice in Wonderland, which was also really well done. Food wasn't exactly world-changing. But what bothered us the most was that every now and then there would be a cloud with a strange smell (we assumed it was a toilet smell). This actually made us miss the evening.

A nice inn, a bit too busy for our taste. The food is good, buffets could be filled a little more quickly.

Delicious food in a nice atmosphere with good service and a central location. The prices are also reasonable.

We went to Mückenschlösschen for brunch. Very good, varied and plentiful food. This was constantly being refilled. Very nice and attentive staff, also child-friendly. Ambience to feel good, in the guest rooms as well as outdoors. Thank you for the great time, we will come again. Many greetings from the Rasche family

Great food and very friendly service.

Unfortunately no selection of vegan dishes, otherwise the food and atmosphere were great

Very good cuisine, very courteous, friendly staff, great restaurant in the outdoor area as well as inside.
