Platzhirsch in Pforzheim

First of all...the food was good, although the salad was free of any salad dressing. The music was way too loud for a restaurant. You couldn't even have a conversation and the waitress pulled your plate away while you still had the cutlery in your hand and the salad plate wasn't even empty. When I tried to make my presence known, I was ignored It almost seemed as if they wanted to have the table free again quickly. All in all, not very comfortable for a nice birthday...unfortunately

Very nice conditions and super friendly handling! When it comes to eating here, I would always opt for Swabian dishes.

Food was good, even if the Viennese style schnitzel was dry. Salad with goat cheese was delicious, even if the cheese was barely visible. Beef pasta dish was average. The house beer is great.

Very stylish restaurant. Very good menus. The service was very quick, attentive and friendly.

Unfortunately very disappointed with the staff and the kitchen! Ordered the cordon bleu. Once with fries and then with fried potatoes. My friend's meat simply had a broken/split piece of wood in his meat and mine had almost no cheese in his cordon bleu and there weren't any fried potatoes on my plate either - rather bland jacket potatoes in slices that tasted like nothing. After we asked the waitress about it, she agreed 1. Not apologizing for it 2. Just said "oh yes that can happen" 3. Left without further ado and cleared our plates. Overall, it must be said that the staff should be better trained. We were greeted warmly, our order was taken well, but then no one was there to ask whether we would like to drink something else, whether the food we ordered was okay or whether we would like to order dessert. I had actually planned to order dessert. But not like that!! First of all, because of the poor service and based on the waitress's reaction, it's apparently not unusual to have pieces of wood in the food. What could I have had for dessert then? Hair or a fingernail? An espresso or something similar on the house would have been appropriate. If this is not usual, then at least an apology!!!! I won't come here anymore. Unfortunately!! The ambience also deteriorates. Still really nice, but the chairs are just worn out and the leather is worn out. Women get full without an appetizer, men definitely don't get enough from the above-mentioned dish. In terms of price, everything is completely reasonable if the criticism of the kitchen and staff is passed on.

Very welcoming. Delicious and invites you to linger

The service was nice and courteous!!The food was delicious and the atmosphere was very inviting and cozy!!We would love to come back!

Simply ridiculous to offer the “spinach and potato pan” as a vegan main dish! If anything, this dish is a side dish. For just under €10 you get 5 small potatoes and 3 leaves of spinach, which won't even fill a child. The food I ordered took almost an hour to arrive and I ended up eating my friends' side dishes and getting full, it was a disaster.

Everything fits here... 5 stars fully deserved...

“I recently ate at this restaurant and was very happy with the food - it was really outstanding! The quality and taste of the dishes were simply top. Every bite was a delight and the menu offers a great selection. Unfortunately the service was not at the same level. The service was rather mediocre - not unfriendly, but not particularly attentive or warm either. Overall, I definitely recommend the restaurant if you value first-class food.”

Our favourite restaurant in Pforzheim 😊

Had dinner there yesterday. The service was a bit clumsy or too reserved but friendly. Music was clearly too loud at the beginning but was later turned down. The atmosphere is nice and we enjoyed the food. For the bowls we would have liked a little less rice and more of the topping (for me more tofu, more avocado, etc. and for the other bowl more salmon, etc.) and a little more sauce for both. BUT even if everything wasn't perfect, it was still very good! So definitely 5 stars because we not only had a very nice evening with good food but the prices were also really fair. For what we paid this is a high level of complaining. I can highly recommend a visit.

Nice brewery with an outdoor area when the weather permits, the food is delicious and the staff are very attentive, I would have expected more of the beer for a brewery

Super delicious vegan Buddha lots with the refreshing house drink. I would probably go there more often if it were closer to home

Very friendly staff. The schnitzel was great, would love to go back soon 😋

I discovered the place by chance. The restaurant is comfortably furnished and the food is delicious. 5 stars 🌟

Very friendly service and great food!

Went from Freiburg yesterday with the family. Friendly, nice, food tastes great. All in all great 👍🏼 gladly again

Top restaurant always friendly, prices ok. great service

The schnitzel, Viennese style, was a disaster. Probably been through the deep fryer twice already. To put something like that on a plate. Just because it's cheap doesn't mean it's bad. The house beer is good, but expensive at 4.90.

Great beer garden with very good service. We were there as a group and were very satisfied. The food was very tasty and I can definitely recommend it.

Very good gastronomy, very attentive and friendly staff. The outdoor seating area or beer garden is a very nice place, but the chairs are not particularly comfortable and it has no seat cushions. The food was good again, only the schnitzel was very thin, the salad was very good, perfectly prepared. Highly recommended.

This evening we ate onion roast with homemade spaetzle and salad - the best in the 50 km area - a taste orgasm that was really awesome. Great ambience and nice service

The schnitzel with fries is highly recommended! It's a super large portion - the schnitzel in particular almost doesn't fit on the plate - and tastes really delicious on top of that. A beer or shandy goes perfectly with this. The other dishes also tasted very good, as I learned from my companions. The service is very friendly and we didn't have to wait long. The Platzhirsch is conveniently located and offers a very pleasant atmosphere. If we lived in Pforzheim, we would definitely be guests here more often. We can recommend this restaurant without exception.

Super nice restaurant to sit outside. Food is very good and plentiful and highly recommended.

According to the provider, card payment possible. After a happy evening at the Öchslefest Pforzheim, the nasty surprise: no card payment possible. No information from the service. Just empty discussions. Never again

Bei diesem Sommerabend war der Aufenthalt im Freien gerade richtig. Das Essen war , wie erwartet, rustikal. Die Qualität und die Portionen waren gut. Die Bedienungen waren zuvorkommend und nett. Es gab nichts zu beanstanden.

Warmly received in English; received good help with translation of the German menu; Fast service with large & tasty portions; Price/quality very satisfied; Also child-friendly: mat with games on it, children's menu available

Very good food, reasonably priced by today's standards, and friendly service. Are very satisfied

Hartelijk ontvangen in het Engels; goede hulp gekregen bij vertaling v/h Duitse menu; Snelle bediening met ruime & lekkere porties; Prijs/kwaliteit zéér tevreden; Ook kindvriendelijk: Onderlegger met spelletjes op, kindermenu beschikbaar

I've given this juice shop two chances now. Once in the restaurant and once at the stand at the Öchslefest. In the restaurant, instead of serving customers, everyone was smoking the entire time. I waited 30 minutes JUST to be allowed to pay. I was charged 10 more, luckily I checked again. At the Öchslefest I was talked to as “Alter & Digga” and the employees had no respect whatsoever. I would be charged €19 for an Aperol Spritz and a Coke. When I pointed this out, the employees gathered around and whispered. Apparently they do that more often. Garbage and rip-offs

The onion roast is a stunner ;-) super tasty and plentiful including a salad that is well dressed. The lunch dishes are rather small, but are very tasty for the price/performance and are therefore okay. The service is on point and is freshly prepared; you can get your food within 20 minutes, even at peak times. I think it's great that you can come over for lunch all the time ;-)

Beautiful interior with a large garden, tasty and affordable food. Always friendly staff!

Simply always good, the service for me is by far the best in the city. Delicious non-alcoholic drinks and a super tasty crunchy burger. The price-performance ratio is still right here! Very friendly owner, the guest is always king. Even for spontaneous visits, a space is always made as far as possible, despite the restaurant being full. Keep it up!

Great service and quick preparation. The food was served to everyone at the same time and tasted delicious. Always very good 👍

Essen war nicht schlecht, aber auch nichts außergewöhnliches. Es machte den Eindruck, als ob es in der Küche nur um die Ausübung eines Berufes geht und nicht, um ein mit Liebe zubereitetes Gericht erstellt werden sollte. Die Bedienung war super freundlich und zuvorkommend.

The otherwise very good food was very mediocre today... dry bowl with ready-made sour cream... not for a while now - service was very nice, ambience under the trees with a bubbling fountain was very nice

Yummy ! Staff very friendly. Gladly again.

Centrally located, beer garden with trees where you feel comfortable, large and good selection of food and drinks. Service was friendly but not always readily available. The onion roast was good and plentiful - even if the meat was medium instead of English as ordered.

I've been there for dinner several times now and I have to honestly say that my friends and I always end up at the top dog. Because the food is simply top. The staff has always been polite and nice. The ambience outside is easy to enjoy when dusk falls in summer. Of course it's just as beautiful inside. I think it's a nice place to enjoy your evening after work.

- Top food, top quality, top prices, top staff, you can't put it better :D - The restaurant is beautifully set up and the atmosphere is great! - Ordering in the restaurant is quick and easy, as is ordering from home [own experience] - The review looks bought, but it's not, feel free to try it yourself ;)

Als wir, heißt meine Frau und ein befreundes Paar das Lokal betraten,stellte man fest,das der von uns reservierte Tisch vergessen wurde. Man platzierte uns dann vor der Theke,an einem Tisch der zum Essen recht ungeeignet war,da zu hoch oder die abgewetzten Ledersofas zu tief waren. Es war abartig laut,da der Wirt ständig hinter seiner Theke rumbrüllte und mit wutverzerrtem Gesicht mit Flaschen und Gläsern hantierte. Nachdem wir unser Essen und die Getränke bestellt hatten warteten wir in dem Lärm ,es war wirklich so laut das man sich nicht unterhalten konnte. Getränke kamen dann auch, lauwarmes alkoholfreies Bier ohne Kohlensäure. Das Essen kam,ausnahmslos lauwarm bis kalt, Salat ohne Dressing bzw. Suchet ihr findet. Wir beschlossen zu gehen. Nachdem der Kellner fragte,ob alles okay gewesen wäre, verneinte ich das. Dies bekam der brüllende Wirt mit und kam an den Tisch. Ob ich ihm erklären wolle wie er sein Lokal führt? Ich erklärte ihm das er weder Anstand noch Respekt hat vor seinen Gästen, sonst würde er sich nicht aufführen wie ein Vollidiot. Er verwies mich dann aus seinem Lokal. Er wollte mich dann noch anfassen,wobei ich ihm erklärt hab er solle es lassen. Ob ich überhaupt wisse wer er ist und dann noch irgendwelche andere Kraftausdrücke. Fazit. Ich war schon in vielen Ländern und in Vielen Lokalen. Aber dieser Abend bleibt in negativer Erinnerung.

2 vermeintlich leichte, schnelle Gerichte zum Mittagstisch, draußen sitzen... in der Theorie gut gedacht. Leider warteten wir 40 Minuten auf Linguini aglio olio und Chimichurri Bowl. Die Linguini waren ok, Pasta etwas weich - Geschmackssache. Die Chimichurri Bowl sollte bestehen aus: Duftreis, Eisbergsalat, Kichererbsen, Gurken, Rote Zwiebeln, Tomaten, Chia-Sesam und Zitat: gekrönt mit Chimichurri Black-Angus - Der Chia-Sesam : Fehlanzeige und das arme Chimichurri-Angus war mehrfach totgebraten, schwarz bitter auf jeweils einer Seite und von Chimichurri keine Spur. Also eigentlich verbranntes Rindfleisch mit Reis (ohne Duft) und Salat. Einfach enttäuschend. darauf dann 40 Minuten zu warten zur Mittagszeit und von der Mittagskarte, da fällt mir nichts mehr ein. Für die Wartezeit wurde sich entschuldigt, ok - aber das Ergebnis war dann einfach nicht gut. Die Kellnerin wollte die Beanstandung beim Fleisch (lag unten) und den fehlenden Chia-Sesam weitergeben.

Friendly and fast service. Food is tasty for the money. Unfortunately, the salad had some brown spots and didn't seem quite as fresh. Our son got a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the house for dessert. Gladly again.

I had breakfast here with my wife. We both ordered the top dog breakfast. My wife wanted a latte macchiato, but this wasn't possible because it was too big. She then ordered a hot chocolate which was 40c cheaper. Then we each had to order butter even though it was supposed to be included? The regional egg was a hard-boiled egg, which in my case already had a dark discoloration around the yolk. Unfortunately, the crispy bacon was anything but crispy. The selection of sausages was definitely good, but there didn't seem to be more than one type of cheese. Overall really disappointing. The only positive point would be the orange juice, which is generous at 0.3l (the ice doesn't bother you either). The ambience was nice in downtown Pforzheim right by the fountain.

As always, delicious food, nice staff, shady, cozy place. We recommend.

Really not good food! I don't understand all the good reviews. The ambience and service are good. But unfortunately the food is really not good! The cheese spaetzle and the bowls tasted like ready-made products and hardly contained any fresh ingredients.

Super satisfied. Good food at good prices and friendly service.

Price performance is right, service and food are top 👍🏻

Eggs Benedict Avocado is a tasteless failure. No salt, no pepper. It just didn't taste good. The service staff are very slow!

Very tasty food, very friendly staff

Sat out here on the terrace in the summer, and there was a really nice atmosphere, good food for a good price, and really nice quick service. Perfect for a quick bite.

Very cozy but above all very tasty restaurant. Staff works quickly, efficiently and is very friendly. Steak was superb and the schnitzel delicious. Highly recommended if you are passing through. Very affordable and definitely worth repeating.

What luck... I just managed to get a delicious daily menu at 3:25 p.m.!

The staff are friendly and approachable, we have eaten here twice now and are very satisfied with the food and the price. At these high temperatures it is nice and shady with trees and parasols. Clear recommendation!

Good, inexpensive restaurant with many regional dishes

Nice beer garden, very cozy inside, nice staff

Were there for lunch. Everything tasted good to us.

By far the worst cordon bleu I've ever eaten. The meat had a strange color and taste, very little cheese with a strange texture and a very thick breading. I expected a lot more from a veal cordon bleu for €20, it was a total disaster.

The innkeeper shouts at his employees even though the shop is full of customers. Then a guest is threatened who did not like this treatment and made this known in a calm, matter-of-fact tone! The screamer banned the guest from the house with the words "don't you know who I am?" You're really at a loss for words!

We were there with 13 people and everything was perfect. The staff was very friendly and responded to all requests. The restaurant is really nice and you can sit inside and outside. The food was very nicely prepared and everyone really enjoyed it. We'll definitely come back 😊

I've never felt so badly treated.

Forgot the reserved table (a week ago). Lukewarm terrible food. Forgot salad, dressing. Non-carbonated beer, stale. Unfriendly, short-tempered innkeeper. Yells at his employees with no regard for the guests. After I complained, he kicked me out of his restaurant with threats of violence. If I didn't know if he was. Conclusion, loud unfriendly and bad food too.

Sluggish service and a lot of the food consists of pimped-up convenience products. It's a shame, I expected more.

Very cozy restaurant that is located in the center and yet not directly in the trouble. Large selection of delicious dishes, it's difficult to decide. The home-brewed beer is an absolute recommendation.

The service staff is very unfriendly

June 24: Six of us inside today with a reservation. Food was great again, service was really friendly and attentive, but then one thing or another didn't really work July 23: Three people without a reservation, outside. As always, the food was really delicious, the service was totally fine, although the male part clearly scores ahead of his two female colleagues👍 And you can't really do anything about the spatial conditions, outside, in the middle of the city, right on the street, on display, so to speak. Today in December 23 indoors with reservation for four. Staff relatively attentive but very friendly. Food onion roast, cheese spaetzle, Buddha bowl and veal cordon bleu were all very good. Espresso quite bitter. House beer great again.

Delivery via Lieferando took over 2 hours! Absolutely unacceptable. The driver was very nice and promised to issue a voucher for the inconvenience, but it hasn't arrived even a week later!

Super delicious food and ambience. The prices are ok and the drinks are very tasty.

We had reserved a table at 8:30 p.m., but it only became available shortly before 9 p.m. In my opinion, this is an absolute nonsense and unacceptable. The owner was friendly but also overwhelmed. The service was very nice, polite and accommodating, but it didn't work very well. Both with the drinks and the food, a lot went wrong or didn't come at all and was forgotten. Not recommended for a larger group or a more formal occasion. But certainly nice in a small, private atmosphere.

The service was unfriendly and unprofessional the food had a waiting time of Uber 1 hour

Food was cold and service was very unfriendly

We ordered food on a Saturday evening. Two salads and two schnitzels. In terms of taste, the schnitzel with the fries was worth a maximum of 2 stars. The salad was already better. Maybe 4 stars. Overall, delivery took longer than stated. It can happen, but it's not that wild in itself. I don't want to spread that too much. The schnitzel was completely bland (considering the price). When I consider that given the portion size and design, I have to pay an extra 0.50 cents for the sauce, I think that's cheeky. We paid around 27 euros per person. In my opinion it wasn't worth it. Sorry top dog, you have a great card. But you have to significantly optimize the taste and appearance (at least when ordering). The schnitzel and fries were nothing special. Especially not for the price. Other restaurants approach the matter with more love and taste. Often it's little things like that. Labeling the packaging according to the contents. A small greeting like “Bon Appetit” or something similar. That wasn't the case. In short: the order disappointed us. But you got full.

We ordered from Platzhirsch. Respectively Cheese spaetzle with chicken & mushrooms Chimichurri steak (see photo) Onion roast with spaetzle First of all, when ordering, very friendly over the phone and the driver was also very friendly. Unfortunately we had to wait almost 2 hours for our food. Then it was still lukewarm. Cheese spaetzle without cheese but with a kind of cream sauce?! Still tastes OK. Onion roast is unfortunately fried to death and the consistency is very tough. Spaetzle is good. Chimichurri steak was delivered without the typical chimichurri and careless fries were thrown in, I ordered medium and unfortunately they were also fried to death. I don't understand why it's so difficult to sear a steak and let it sit... We paid €64 We already eat on site and concluded our wedding there with a meal a year ago. The food was a solid 7/10. Unfortunately, even after repeated requests, they were unable to fry/grill the steaks medium rare. Service and ambience on site are tip top. Won't be ordering anymore.

Very long waiting times, food is not tasty and poor service

Very nice restaurant, staff and delicious food 🍰

Very tasty and friendly staff, I can really recommend it

The schnitzel was completely cooked through and very dry. That's probably why everyone eats their schnitzel with sauce there 😅 But the wheat beer was very good and ice cold. It was quite nice to sit outside and the service was very nice.

Nice here, but have you ever been served by Nydia Buchenroth?👀

We were at the top dog for the first time. The restaurant itself is very nicely designed. The waitresses were also very nice. We ordered drinks. I ordered a Coke Zero but then got a Diet Coke when I asked and was told there was no Coke Zero at the moment so you could have asked if you wanted to drink a Diet Coke or something else. Afterwards we ordered the bruschetta which was unfortunately a bit bland. But the tomatoes were very fresh. Afterwards we ordered the steak twice at my request with fries instead of the grilled vegetables, which was also taken into account and I thought it was good. The steak was ordered medium rare and was unfortunately a bit too well done and unfortunately a bit tough. But the herb butter was very tasty.

Great place! Regional cuisine and very courteous service

Extensive food and drink menu. Balanced price performance. ♿️ Wheelchair users can contact the service on the ground floor and will then be taken via the house entrance and an elevator to the tables on the 1st floor. It would be desirable that the service does not give the wheelchair user the feeling that he actually has no time to accompany the wheelchair user to the elevator. Or simply offer more wheelchair-accessible tables on the ground floor. Outdoor dining is cozy...only the car posers get in the way every now and then...🤷🏼‍♂️

Incredibly good, we are currently enjoying your food at home. We look forward to a visit soon. Definitely the best food you can get delivered in Pforzheim. Thanks for the restaurant feeling at home. Keep it up.

Long waiting time Untrained staff

Hey, it's really nice here! Faith is my favorite place here! No joke! The beer alone is so delicious and the service is super cool!

Great gastro. Very tasty homemade beer. Nice ambience. Very nice staff! Gladly again and again!

Completely disorganized staff Food was forgotten to be included And I had to wait almost 65 minutes. I feel really ripped off

Very bad and untrained staff Waited over 1 hour for the food and then the main course was forgotten! Ridiculous

Rarely have I had such a bad breakfast overall! There were 10 of us and only 2 of us went home happy. Several Eggs Benedict were completely raw. The bread was definitely not fresh, but it wasn't toasted/fried either. Oranges/decorative fruits were dried. 2 dishes were completely cold. The salad was partly brown, two coffees were forgotten and at 10:30 a.m. (breakfast takes much longer) there were no more rolls or pretzels, which is why you also get slices of bread. One waitress even became cheeky and stroppy when we pointed out the things. Her friendly colleague tried to save the day and everyone who had a raw egg got coffee for free. I will definitely not visit this restaurant again and will definitely not recommend it to anyone! (The table next door also complained about cold coffee)

Great, very friendly and attentive staff. The selection of dishes is large and it tasted great. I think the restaurant is tastefully decorated and has something to offer. Price performance also fits, is recommended.

The apple strudel tasted very tasty 😋 Very nice service and a nice ambience. We'd love to come back

Really good food. Can just be recommended. Jasmin was a very good waitress. Good and nice service.

Nice restaurant with a great ambience. The food and drinks were very tasty. The staff super friendly. Thanks for the birthday surprise for my friend, he was very happy. TOP!

Went by spontaneously and got a seat without any problem. Orders were taken and delivered personally by the boss and the food he recommended (pork knuckles) was excellent. Super nice staff and a good price/performance ratio. We'd love to come back!

2 x 5 stars for No. 66 + 67, including Maulbronn beer + rosé with the salmon

I visited platzhirsch because of the big variety of veggie and vegan options. Finally I decided on the falafel bowl. In retrospect I am a bit sad and would have chosen a different meal. It was a very different interpretation of what I envisioned. There was no mention of tomatoes or lettuce in the menue. Since salad made up for almost half of the bowl (at expense of the other ingredients) a heads up is definitely necessary! For example it was only a hint of mango. On the positive side - dessert and the house beer were yummy and made almost up for my disappointment. Apple rings with ice cream and vanilla sauce always a treat. Super service and nice location so all things covered on that part.

Very good located. Nice and friendly waiter, but we wait very long for our dishes. Local food was very good but pasta wasn’t ok, too long cooked. Beer was delicious!

I was here for dinner for the first time with friends today, I'm thrilled it was beautiful, the food is super tasty, the staff are very friendly and the food was quick because we'd love to come back ☺️

Steak was great! Unfortunately, only the fries were lukewarm. Service was really courteous. I could have complained, but I was really in a hurry.

Were here for dinner. Large selection of regional and international dishes. Very tasty dishes from starters to dessert. The service was really great, attentive and customer-oriented. The hosts greet you as soon as you enter and say goodbye when you leave. Truly a rarity these days. Many thanks to the hosts, kitchen and service.
