Nava's Imbiss in Ritterhude

Once again we stayed at Casa Mariana - and for good reason: the welcome and service from Mariana are always very warm and attentive. Combined with the ambience, you immediately feel at home. The dishes, prepared by her husband, come to the table beautifully presented and hot. All ingredients are fresh, the dishes are wonderfully seasoned. Steaks are perfectly prepared to the desired doneness. The daily specials are also highly recommended. Even special requests are fulfilled immediately. Mariana is a very friendly host who never loses her calm, even under the greatest stress. You can tell that the guest is still king here.

The three of us went there for dinner for our silver wedding anniversary. The food was very good, and the price/performance ratio was right. Only the drinks were overpriced, which is completely out of proportion. What bothered me personally was that we were automatically addressed informally; I don't think that's appropriate in a certain setting. At the very least, people should be able to judge for themselves who they're comfortable with. However, the service was otherwise very friendly and attentive.

Things have deteriorated considerably. A few years ago, I gave it 5 stars, but unfortunately, not anymore. There were five of us there, and we ordered a bottle of Prosecco and other drinks. When the Prosecco arrived, the glasses weren't brought; we had to specifically ask (how should we drink it?), and then the waitress asked us which glasses we wanted, regular or wine, and how many... huh? There were five of us, and it was Prosecco. Which glasses? Plastic would be best 😂... Then, instead of Hefeweizen, they brought Alster beer, and we had to say again that it wasn't right. And the waitress was also confused about the salads for the main course. The food was okay, but not like it used to be. At the end, they either didn't tip at all, or they gave a small amount... but only out of politeness, not because they liked the food. Unfortunately, my last visit..... 😟
