Nevizade Essen in Essen

All in all, a really lovely experience. Delicious food, everyone was friendly, and the food arrived quickly. Highly recommended. 😊✨️

The staff are all very nice and friendly.

I would recommend this spacious, clean, and pleasant place to eat with the family to everyone.

We were there with friends for dinner, and before we'd even finished our soups, our food arrived. The saç kavurma was cold, but the pan was hot, and the meat was raw, as if it hadn't been cooked at all. We told the waiter, but since he spoke neither German nor Turkish, he wasn't interested in accommodating our request. What a shame. The service was extremely unprofessional, and we felt like we were rushed through our meal—eat quickly and get out, so we couldn't really enjoy it. On top of that, while I was eating, I was interrupted by a woman with a serving cart full of dirty dishes. While we were still eating, the woman brought us tea, which is usually done at the end. Never again! We'll never go there again.

Fantastic place. The service and atmosphere are outstanding. The food is on another level. Very fast service. They cater to all requests.

If you value good service and a pleasant experience, you should probably avoid this restaurant. The only good thing was the Dana Bonfilet. It was really delicious! My colleagues had a mixed grill, but the lamb smelled and tasted like steel. The rest of the food wasn't good either. The service was extremely rushed and stressful. The waiter said that fresh bread would be coming with our appetizer, but of course, it wasn't fresh. It was obvious that it had simply been thrown in the oven. We pointed this out, and he apologized and brought us stale bread. He also apologized, saying that a colleague had made a mistake and that it was difficult to find decent staff. The waiter who cleared the table at the end didn't even greet us or ask if we had finished eating. He simply took it for granted that he had to clear everything. In the end, we were presented with a bill without them asking if everything was alright. Apparently, they don't value criticism and improvement.

"This was our first time here – and definitely not our last! We were absolutely thrilled with the food; we haven't had such delicious meals in ages. The team is incredibly friendly and the atmosphere is very pleasant. Thank you so much for a wonderful evening!"

I was there with a friend for brunch and we enjoyed it. It was my first time today but I'm definitely coming again. The kazandibi and cheesecake are a must!

The food and atmosphere are good. The prices are high, but acceptable; you pay them if everything else is right. What isn't right, however, is the service. The waiters are very poor and don't know how to serve guests. Proper training or a course would be beneficial.

Absolutely amazing experience! The food was fresh, hot, and full of flavour. Everything arrived on time and was perfectly prepared. The staff were friendly and professional. You can really tell they care about quality. Highly recommended

Everything was great. I'd gladly go again. Second visit: Everything was great. I'd gladly go again.

Unfortunately, someone else deleted my review. I think it's absolutely outrageous that negative reviews are deleted. The review read as follows: "The restaurant was extremely crowded. I ordered the mixed meat platter for €29.90. The food was served quite cold. For that price, I found the portion very, very small compared to other establishments. The meat skewers were really tiny. This was my second time there. I don't think I'll be eating at Nevizade again. What a shame."

The food is delicious. The staff are friendly. I recommend it.

Clean, reliable, affordable, and comfortable for dining.

The diced meat; there's no diced meat like this. There's no fat in the meat, not even a gram of fat on the skewer, seriously? And like us, this is the first time I've seen a loaf of bread served with the meal. Now don't say that's just the concept, my eyes see what goes to those tables. It means kebab, what's the base, lavash, curtain, etc. It's known. Okay, I understand we're not regulars. We go once a year. But the ice-cold, hardened lavash you bring with such haste... I went all the way from Duisburg. Even the places here bring things running. And you don't ask for tea three times. You'll say it's very busy, but it's a weekday! You've ruined the service.

The place for good and delicious döner kebab 👍

We discovered it when we came for the trade fair. From the kitchen to the service, from the parking lot to the restrooms, it was absolutely perfect. Needless to say, the food was magnificent.

It's definitely worth the hype. I've eaten künefe in many restaurants, but this one was perfect! The food was also excellent! The prices are in line with everything else. I think it's totally reasonable.

Everything was great, I can only recommend it, delicious as always!

"We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The food was excellent, the service attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere very pleasant. You immediately feel at ease. Many thanks to the entire team – we will gladly return!"

We went during Ramadan, it was extremely crowded, and we had a reservation. We noticed that the waiters couldn't attend to every table; we waited 10 minutes just to order water. One waiter was serving 15-20 tables, and we even waited for the table to be cleared before we could have tea, but nobody cleared it until we were finished. The prices weren't very reasonable.

We came with a large group. Friendly service. Quick and attentive staff. The food was hot and delicious. The complimentary items were plentiful and tasty. Thank you.

The meat was really good, the beyti had very thin dough, almost like thin dürüm bread, and the shrimp and vegetable pot (I forgot the name) was very tomatoey, almost like pizza. The rice was very bad, watery, and not fully cooked. The bulugur was salty but actually tasty, and the fries weren't salted, but you could theoretically add salt at the table.

Amazing taste, quality service In foreign lands

From the valet at the door, to the manager İbrahim abi, the owner Gökhan abi, and all the staff inside; from the waiters to the busboys, everyone's attention to the customer is truly wonderful. They fully deserve the money I paid for this establishment. The taste is, of course, undeniably top-notch. If you really want to understand the success of a restaurant's culinary scene, I suggest you try their Adana kebab — everything will be revealed there 🙂 Thank you for your hard work and dedication. Thank you for everything.

We had breakfast there. Delicious and lovely. Unlimited free tea.

I used to eat here regularly and enjoyed it. I even gave it 5 stars back then. Unfortunately, it's now only 2 stars. We ordered three dishes, and we weren't satisfied with any of them. For example, my meat wasn't cooked through. It was generally too cold in the restaurant. The baklava was really good, though. Nice and crispy. The food used to be very good. So good that I used to eat there with colleagues. Back then, the food was still good, but my colleagues and I felt like we were just expected to pay and leave quickly after eating. I understand that when the place is full, but none of us felt comfortable after eating there.

Dinner at Nevizade is very good; the food is truly delicious. However, the open breakfast buffet unfortunately didn't impress me. While everything was fresh, much of it, in my opinion, doesn't fit with Turkish breakfast traditions. Who eats potato gratin for breakfast, for example? The dessert was particularly disappointing and urgently needs improvement. The İrmik Tatlısı was practically watery and tasteless, and the brownie wasn't very good either. I understand that it's primarily a kebab shop—but then perhaps they shouldn't offer such desserts at all. The prices, however, are reasonable.

Nevizade Restaurant is simply outstanding! The quality of the food is perfect – everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. You can immediately tell that the food is cooked with great care and skill. The team also deserves high praise: incredibly friendly, attentive, and very welcoming. You feel welcome and well taken care of from the very first moment. For me, it's one of the best restaurants in Essen – I will definitely be back. A clear 5 stars and my absolute recommendation!

Absolutely delicious food during Ramadan. We've rarely eaten such a delicious Iftar meal. We highly recommend it!!

Best place in Essen! We were there for the first time, the food was delicious, the service was very nice and friendly, everything was clean and perfect. The food arrived quickly and hot, the people were very nice and the staff were very friendly, everything was perfect. I highly recommend it.

We went there for dinner for the first time. The bread was burnt and cold. The food is quite expensive, and we were charged too much for drinks. The drinks are expensive and only 0.2 liters. We also had to constantly ask for cutlery and glasses. The waiter at the register was unfriendly and annoyed. The decor is very nice, but I wouldn't come back.

The place is wonderful, the food is delicious. And the prayer room is truly superb. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

The design is top-notch The food is top-notch The service is top-notch The attention to detail is top-notch The prayer room is top-notch There's nothing to give a negative rating to; everything is perfect. First of all, I would like to thank the owner and staff for providing such a beautiful prayer room and ablution facilities. The food is delicious, everything is wonderful. You can come with peace of mind.

Second time we are here and its realy realy good..The porcion is very big and the food taste realy good.You get free salad and when you finish meal they bring you tee..The price is okay its not too expencive..For two with main meal amlmd drinks 50e..

Excellent quality, the food was amazing, very friendly staff, highly recommended.

I enjoyed the food...the atmosphere and service were also very nice...I wish them continued success.

I was very disappointed with my visit. I ordered a lamb skewer, which was served completely raw. After I pointed this out, it was grilled again, but then it was incredibly tough. The salad was yellowed. I understand that mistakes can happen, especially when it's extremely busy. But there were only six tables occupied, and while there was staff bustling about, they seemed unenthusiastic. In the end, they only asked if everything was okay when we were about to leave. For this quality, even when it's not busy, I unfortunately won't be returning. It wasn't always like this.

It's a pleasant place, the food was very good. However, I think the tables can't be cleaned completely because of the high traffic, so they need to pay more attention to this. It's a small detail, but it's important.

If there were 10 stars, I would give it 10 stars, it's amazing, ماشاء

The food was good, the service was great, I recommend it.

We dined at Nevizade with a group of ten and were absolutely delighted from the first course to dessert. We haven't eaten so well in a long time! The food was of high quality and tasted superb. The service was impressive, characterized by friendliness, attentiveness, and professionalism. Highly recommended.

We had breakfast. It was delicious and cost €16.50 per person. There were about 50 different items.

We went for the open breakfast buffet. The place was clean and tidy. Baklava would have been a nice addition for dessert, but unfortunately it wasn't available. Pişi, which is usually part of a Turkish breakfast, was also missing. The cleanliness was a plus, but the tea service took quite a long time each time.

Nevizade Sokak is a bustling and possibly the most famous street in Istanbul. Anyone who has visited and dined there knows the renowned Turkish cuisine. Nevizade GökhanCan at Gladbecker Str. 285-287 in 45326 Essen comes very close to the culinary culture of Istanbul. We dined here with friends and were extremely satisfied. The grilled specialties and the presentation by the service were simply outstanding. We tried everything from appetizers to main courses and desserts. The owner himself greeted us personally. The staff were also very friendly and attentive. A big thumbs up! Keep up the good work! We will definitely recommend the restaurant and will visit again soon.

The food was delicious. The service could have been a bit faster, though, as we had to wait a very long time.

We attended the ATE event. The breakfast was absolutely fantastic.

The decor is nice to very nice. The place is quite large and crowded. The food is also highly recommended, but the service is lacking, as is often the case.

This was our first time visiting this restaurant with my family, and we were extremely pleased. The staff were friendly and sincere, especially waiter Muhammed. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for clean and delicious food.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The food is outstanding – fresh, perfectly seasoned, and of very high quality. The wide selection of meat dishes is particularly noteworthy. In addition, the hospitality is exceptional: the staff is warm, attentive, and makes you feel welcome immediately. Highly recommended!

Service and quality are top-notch. From the huge breakfast buffet to dinner, it's simply unique. Gökhan Can is a strong, exemplary brand! The atmosphere is very pleasant. Despite the distance, we drive there once or twice a week to Essen. Whether you're eating alone or in a large group, there's plenty of space, and they even frequently celebrate birthdays there. My favorite, nationwide and across Europe. Mashallah! 👍🤲

Very friendly, fast service, good food

A very good restaurant: delicious food made with high-quality ingredients, attentive service, and a pleasant atmosphere. A place you'll want to return to.

There is parking available in the courtyard, the menu is relatively large, and the food was delicious. The service was attentive and frequently available even in the more remote areas.

Overall, we were satisfied, even though there were a few things that could be improved. The lamb skewer with yogurt and tomato sauce was very tasty; the meat in general was delicious and of high quality. I also enjoyed my chicken beyti, although the yufka was a bit too firm. Unfortunately, the bread quality was not convincing: The bread served with the appetizer didn't seem entirely fresh. With the lamb skewer, the bread was initially soggy inside and hard at the same time. After we complained, it was replaced, but it quickly became soggy again in the sauce. That was a shame, as the meat was really good. The service, on the other hand, was excellent – ​​very friendly, attentive, and quick. The restaurant was full, but the noise level was perfectly acceptable. We felt the price was a bit too high for what we got, especially considering the bread quality. Overall, a good restaurant with very good meat and great service, but not a place we would visit again.

Fast and friendly service (thanks to Sabah 🙂) (we ordered for 16 people and didn't even wait 30 minutes!!)! Prices were okay. The parking service was also great.

Very tasty, great service and friendly staff.

We've had breakfast and dinner there several times now. Every time, everything is fresh and delicious. You can tell that everything is prepared fresh daily. Everything is perfectly organized.

As of January 2026/ Although the VAT rate for restaurants has been reduced since January 2026, I couldn't detect any price difference during my visit. The prices remained unchanged. It seems to me that the tax reduction is being kept solely for the restaurant's own purposes and not passed on to the customers. This practice disappoints me, which is why I will no longer be going to this restaurant in the evenings. Ocak 2026’dan itibaren restoranlarda KDV düşürülmüş olmasına rağmen, son ziyaretimde fiyatlarda herhangi bir fark göremedim. Fiyatlar aynı kalmıştı. Bu da vergi indiriminin misafirlere yansıtılmadığı izlenimini veriyor. Bunu şahsen üzücü buluyorum. Bu nedenle akşamları artık bu restorana gitmemeye karar verdim. December 2025: I went to the open breakfast buffet in the restaurant and overall I enjoyed it. However, what wasn't so good was that the desserts weren't fresh and didn't taste very good. Better quality or a fresher selection would be desirable here to make the buffet more appealing overall. All in all, a good breakfast with room for improvement regarding the desserts. I'd gladly come again – but I hope for fresher desserts next time. -- Kahvalti acik büfe güzeldi fakat icinde bulunan tatli türleri maalesef komple bayatti.

Nice restaurant and lots of delicious food

It's very tasty, but not the highlight my colleague made it out to be. In my opinion, it's not worth the 45-minute drive. It's on the pricier side. Two drinks, a rice dish with veal, and dessert cost €45.

The food was good, the staff friendly, but it was too crowded; you could hardly have a conversation.

So, our visit was on Saturday around 6:30 PM. 4 adults Conclusion: A long blonde hair was literally tangled in the rice. The waiters smelled strongly of sweat, but seriously!! We complained to the tall, bald man, but he showed absolutely no interest (the crowning glory of the day). A catastrophe! I've never experienced anything like it, I'm serious! We didn't order anything else, just the Adana platter, the Tavuk platter, and two Beyti, all still almost 80% full! So now we're at the checkout. The man with the gray hair, about 45 years old, explained the whole situation, and he was even worse than the other waiter—he couldn't listen at all! ... No way! I work at a huge car dealership near Essen, selling VW, Audi, etc. Everyone knows it. I'm going to tell every customer and colleague from Essen and the surrounding area this story! With all due respect, I've never experienced anything like this!

I'm writing this as a discerning person, but this is a place our family has frequented since it first opened. It's an elite establishment that everyone should definitely experience; those who follow my recommendation will surely be satisfied. I'd like to thank the entire team once again from here.

One of the best Turkish restaurants in North Rhine-Westphalia. The food is fantastic! The drinks are fantastic! The service is absolutely top-notch! (They call you Abi&Abla 😉) I highly recommend coming here!!!

The food was satisfactory. However, the initial interaction with the usher was extremely rude. We had a reservation for about 20 people. When I asked for our table, he simply pointed in the direction. When I mentioned that I would get the other guests, he made dismissive hand gestures, turned around, and began shouting. In a private setting, I would have reacted differently. However, since we were an engagement party with family and children, I handled the situation calmly. There are numerous good restaurants, so despite the acceptable food, this one is definitely not recommended.

On our last visit, we definitively decided it's a place we'll never go to again!!! The service and taste are terrible for the price. You have to wait in line every time. The meat was very tough, undercooked, the appetizers started to smell bad, and the salads were inedible. Menu 720, called Aldinta, had very little of everything: one spoonful of eggplant, one spoonful each of two types of rice, and three pieces of meat for €35??? We managed to fill our stomachs with lahmacun and pizza. My wife ordered ribs, all burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. The drinks are 0.2l and cost €3.50; even the glasses that come with them aren't enough to fill them! My other daughter ordered meatballs and Pommes, and I think it would be much better if they offered a baby menu instead of a children's menu. They might forget they're a restaurant soon... All customers will see how much understanding you expect when you encounter such a problem on a day!!! *Als Antwort auf den Admin: Ich verstehe aus Ihrem Schreiben, dass Sie, wenn Ihre Kunden, wie es mir passiert ist, verdorbenen Salat und ungekochtes Essen bekommen und Ihre Speisekarte als unzureichend bezeichnet wird, lieber angreifen, als den Vorfall zu kompensieren!!! And zwar Verachtung!!! and als Gewissen. Diese Antwort von Ihnen wird für Leute, die verstehen, ausreichen.

Meals cost around 15 Euros per person on average, but the atmosphere is great and the food is delicious. I recommend it.

I'm reviewing the breakfast buffet, which was truly outrageous and meager for the price. There was neither water nor coffee. When we asked, we were told the coffee machine was broken. Water had to be ordered separately and—just like coffee—paid for separately. The fruit selection was limited, and forget about dessert: no cakes, no baklava. Everything that's included in the price at other restaurants had to be ordered and paid for separately here. We won't be coming back.

We had a delicious meal and were completely satisfied.

On December 23, 2025, after 6 PM, we were there as a family of five. One section was extremely crowded (we sat in that section), while the other seemed quieter (they had seated 2-3 people in the quieter section, and you can tell the difference, but in a positive way 😊). We had been to this place a few times before, under its old name, but this time we were much more satisfied (despite it being very crowded). Because we were so pleased this time, and to ensure this same level of satisfaction continues, I wanted to write a long, detailed review. Thank you for everything 😊👍 Reasons for our satisfaction: 1. Before we even ordered, they brought appetizers, bread, and salad to the table. (Many places bring these depending on your chosen menu (if you order a large menu) (or charge extra), but here they were offered as complimentary items). 2. Then the food arrived very quickly and was "very hot." (When I came under its old name, I had to wait longer and the food sometimes arrived almost cold.) 3. First, the youngest child's food arrived, followed by the other children's and ours (parents' meals). (Many places don't pay attention to this, and parents can't eat comfortably, but the timing was perfect this time. The children didn't have to ask where their food was, or the parents could eat comfortably while the youngest child was busy with their meal.) 4. The waiters are very polite and friendly. They don't serve as if they are forced to. They serve in a sincere and friendly manner; you don't hesitate to ask for anything or have difficulty reaching them. 5. They had Fritz cola and its varieties as drinks. In some places, you can't find drinks other than boycotted products, but we didn't see any boycotted products on the menu here. 6. The portions were large and sufficient. (In some places that offer complimentary appetizers, the portions are small, but here both the appetizers and the portions were sufficient and generous.) We were very pleased this time, and to ensure this same level of satisfaction continues, I wanted to write a long, detailed review. Thank you for everything 😊👍

Unfortunately, a very disappointing experience. The food was of poor quality: one dish was still bloody/pink inside and clearly undercooked. Another dish arrived cold and very hard. We complained to the server. The food was taken away, supposedly to show the chefs – but then it simply disappeared 🤣. No solution was offered, and the dish wasn't removed from the bill. This is especially frustrating since we drove 70 km specifically for this restaurant. A real shame; we had much higher expectations.

Far too loud and it resembles mass processing.

Great and clean atmosphere. The staff is courteous and very friendly. The breakfast selection was very generous, simply fantastic, and there was something for everyone. TOP!

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The food is wonderful and delicious... and the prayer area is very beautiful, like a mosque. Thank God, may there be more places like this, InshaAllah.

Perfect shop, there's also a prayer room, very clean and nice, the appearance is also really good and the food tastes 100% good.

Visit this evening around 6:30–7:00 p.m. We entered the restaurant this evening and were greeted by an older waiter with black hair. We were immediately shown three tables and told to choose between them right away. Even at this early stage, I found the service very pushy, even though we only wanted to take a quick look around the dining room, as we were specifically looking for a quieter corner. These three tables were practically forced upon us. After we sat down, it turned out that we were sitting in a very noisy corner with screaming children – exactly what we wanted to avoid. Since there were many other free tables in the restaurant (including tables for two by a wooden partition in the middle of the place), my wife politely called the waiter over and asked to be moved, explaining that it was too noisy for us there. The waiter's response was extremely unprofessional and essentially said: "It's a restaurant, you'll have to live with it." Instead of accommodating our request, we were simply offered a table on the opposite side of the room – without any discernible improvement to the situation. All other available tables were categorically ruled out, without any comprehensible explanation. The tone and overall demeanor, especially towards my wife, were disrespectful and lacked customer focus. We felt ignored and genuinely offended. For this reason, we decided to get up and leave the restaurant. Anyone who values ​​friendly service and the consideration of legitimate customer requests (such as a quiet seat) should be wary. Unfortunately, our impression was that customer satisfaction is not a priority here.

My brother and I visited Nevizade this evening and were not pleased with the service; the food wasn't hot, more like lukewarm. I expected more. It must be said that the place has a nice atmosphere, but the service and food are not up to standard. You have to place your order with the waiters more than once, and it takes forever before anything arrives. It only deserves two stars.

We were really impressed with the restaurant. We only had soup, but it was very good. We'd love to come back soon for grilled dishes or the breakfast buffet. Large restaurant with a very nice atmosphere. The service was very friendly and attentive.

The Adana kebab and lamb chops were delicious, but the köfte and shashlik were far too heavily spiced and didn't taste like meat at all, just like spices. The mixed grill for four was expensive and, in my opinion, not worth the money; it didn't offer a sufficient variety of meats.

Food was great Prices were okay Service was very poor, they didn't speak German

Excellent, nothing to complain about, everything was top-notch! Very friendly waiters, top-notch and fast service, delicious food and hygienic!

Last time when we went the food was super delicious

Everything was excellent as always: the high quality of the food, the outstanding service, and the friendly demeanor of the staff.

We’ve been coming to this restaurant almost every two weeks for about a year. At first, the food was excellent, but over time we noticed the quality dropped and the portions got smaller. Still, the meat is good quality, and the balloon bread is delicious. However, the rice was very oily and had a strange taste ,I couldn’t eat it at all, even though I usually like Turkish rice. On the positive side, they offer unlimited tea after the meal.

all recommendations for this wonderful restaurant that offers excellent quality halal food. prices are normal, service is excellent. they also have a mosque which is great for people who travel

Great food and a fantastic atmosphere. Fast service!

I didn't even know where to begin. We were here on November 28, 2025, and celebrated my daughter's 18th birthday with 14 people. I can only say: It was simply fantastic. Anyone planning a birthday party should definitely choose this place! The manager and the entire service team were incredibly friendly and attentive. The waiter who brought us the cake made the atmosphere even better and made us feel right at home. We also received special attention because we're from Azerbaijan, which really touched us. Our next big celebrations will definitely be held here again. This is already the second time we've come all the way from Bielefeld to Essen. Thank you so much for everything! A huge thank you to all the staff and the manager – we were completely satisfied. The prices are also absolutely fair. For anyone planning a birthday party: I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Everything's great! Thank you so much!

A great restaurant with delicious food. Parking was a bit tricky, but the parking attendant had everything under control. 👌 All the staff were polite and helpful.

I went there with two colleagues and ordered a set menu for four people for €150. Unfortunately, the menu contained more fries and rice than meat – quite disappointing, to be honest. And there was no baklava or çay included for free. As for drinks, they are very expensive. A 0.2-liter Coke costs a whopping €3 or €3.50, I can't remember exactly. We definitely won't be going back.

The breakfast buffet for €16.50 is affordable. Besides some cheese and cold cuts, other dishes are offered. My criticism is that I would have liked jam, honey, butter, or other classic breakfast items, not in pre-packaged portions. You also have to find your own plates and bread baskets. Overall, there's nothing particularly special about the breakfast selection that would make it worth going there.

We went for breakfast, the variety and freshness was great

Very tasty and they had a great selection. The waiters were all very friendly and helpful. As soon as your tea was ready, a waitress came right away to refill it.

Everything is very, very good. Only the prices are quite high.

Friendly staff. The food was delicious. I recommend it! 😉

Delicious food. Excellent staff 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

A complete disappointment. We ordered a mixed grill and a chicken platter – the portions are ridiculously small compared to how they used to be. The fries were cold, and the salad smelled downright rancid. No one should be served that. When I pointed it out to the owner, there was absolutely no reaction. No interest, no apology, nothing – simply ignored. And this despite the fact that I used to be a regular customer and even ate there with my company. As far as I'm concerned, this place is completely dead to me. Anyone who treats their customers like this shouldn't be surprised by losing them. I definitely won't be coming back.

Super nice people ☺️ again and again.

We visited Gökhan Can in Essen and unfortunately had a rather hectic experience. The atmosphere was more like a cafeteria than a restaurant. Salads were placed in front of us as soon as we arrived, before all the other guests had even settled in, and only a few minutes passed between the appetizer and the main course. Our appetizer and main course were practically taken away from us while we were still sitting down. The service seemed geared towards quantity and speed, and even the clearing of dishes was rather inattentive. Overall, the food tasted okay, but the atmosphere and service were disappointing. We wouldn't go back.
