Profi Grill - Inh. Raimund Ostendorp in Bochum

As if time had stood still. A real "chip shop" like before. Rarely eaten as good as there. Any time again.

Good snack bar with a decent selection of food, good taste, friendly service. Can be recommended.

This is a piece of the Ruhr area. Currywurst/French fries are typical and hard to beat. Plenty. Schnitzel is thinly pounded and breaded in the display case to be freshly prepared. Typical atmosphere in the small dining room, daily newspaper, deck of cards on the table (if you need a distraction), fast, competent and attentive service. Well frequented at any time of day and always worth a visit.

Hello, I went there on the recommendation of a work college and it wasn't a hit! I can't understand the currywurst that everyone is so excited about! There are far better ones out there. The fries were on point. Delicious 😋 but the frikandel-like meatball didn't work at all! Conclusion, once and never again!!! Too bad. Lg.

Just the way you want it and, when you're hungry or hungry, need it: delicious, reasonably priced, and the atmosphere is wonderful. Raimund makes you feel right at home. Treat everyone equally well, warmly and directly. Pure Ruhr area 👍🏻 Oh yes, the food. The schnitzel comes from the pan and not from the convenience store, the currywurst is solid and delicious, the fries are crispy and the homemade sauces give everything the finishing touch. Always my pleasure!

Quaint chip shop, the owner greeted us at the door with a handshake, even though it was our first time there. Fries were good, currywurst too. The Jägerschnitzel was okay. Furnishings were back in the past, but absolutely beautiful. Nice people with whom we shared the table, we'll come back and then hope for truffle mayo.

Had a currywurst with fries it wasn't bad but it could be better!!

I had a currywurst with fries and mayo. I found the curry sauce very boring. The meat quality was good. Fries were standard fries. High quality mayo. You can eat, but I wouldn't go there specifically.

The restaurant looks like it has fallen out of time, but it is clean and the employees used their time to clear away and clean. Every sauce we tried was homemade. The curry sauce could have used more bang for me but tastes differ. The shish kebab was tender and very good. The schnitzel was very tasty and the gypsy sauce was very tasty. The hunter's sauce tasted delicious like mushrooms. The portions are large. This wasn't our last visit.

Super friendly, tasty and sufficient. I can only recommend it. The boss even sat down with us. Probably because my boss is exactly the same height as him 🥳 2.2 meter men

Friendly, tasty and reasonable prices!

The currywurst was, as always, very tasty.

I gave five stars for the ambience because it corresponds to the zeitgeist of 1970 😁😎

Good french fries place!!! Everything is very personal 🙂. Often full, you may have to bring some time. Maumau is the “house game”!

The curry sauce is simply a revelation.

The menu is long out of date. On site, the currywurst now costs €3, small fries €2.50 and mayo €0.50. We drove straight back yesterday, let's not let ourselves be fooled. Too bad. -------- Addendum: There has been no price information on the online menu for months. There will be a reason for that.

First time there - super tasty - I can only recommend it 👍

Four of us were there for chicken on Saturday evening. My father, my brother and his wife were there shortly after 7:30 p.m. and placed the order straight away. I arrived about ten minutes later. The waitress behind the counter was complaining the whole time. She then asked us what we would like to eat now because she wanted to finish work. Even though the order was placed before I arrived, I had to pass it on again because she didn't remember what we had ordered. I used to come here very often, and my father also often came here for chicken dinners. From now on we'll let it go.

This is how I imagine a German snack bar!

Old school blacksmith shop with charm and delicious food. It is now rarely found

After a long time we 'returned home' to the professional grill. As usual, we ate delicious currywurst fries. Serviced quickly and friendly. Gladly again.

After 16 years I was back in my father's homeland and a visit to the professional grill was inevitable. The currywurst with fries is still a poem. The curry sauce is beautifully fruity and slightly spicy. Staff was very friendly. I really enjoyed the currywurst before we went back to Swabia.

Very good food in a retro atmosphere

Today I went to the former star chef with my son for the first time in 15 years. Food is still top But don't wait another 15 years

25 years ago I often ate currywurst fries there. There must be a new owner, the recipe for the sauce has changed, all the pictures on the walls are gone. It doesn't taste like it used to.

Based on the many reviews, I ate a schnitzel with fries and salad there. I was very disappointed. So you can get it in hundreds of food stalls. Miles away from star cuisine and culinary skills in general. The “homemade sauce” is the usual mix of ready-made products. The schnitzel is small and dark brown from the deep fryer. Loveless salad side dish. Fries are standard. However, the owner does everything to keep his image up. Completely overrated.

The name speaks for itself. FRESH (!) schnitzels, homemade sauces, fine salads! No longer an insider tip, but an absolute recommendation!

On the way to Bottrop we drove via Bochum. Ordered currywurst, fries, mayo and a cola, wonderful. The order was also brought to the table outside, great currywurst, good sauce. It was absolutely worth it, any time again!

I ate currywurst fries there. It tastes okay but the sausage is really bad. People are used to better things in Bochum and Wattenscheid. Just a standard sausage with standard fries. Please make the meal special. Thanks.

I still know Kurt's chip shop, my sister lived almost next door...it was a long time ago, we were really looking forward to Kurt's frikadelke with Kurt's sauce, unfortunately we were very disappointed, the sauce was definitely no longer Kurt's recipe.. .the consistency was more slippery, like jelly. A PITY

At Raimund's it's always delicious. Always available for a private chat - depending on the time

That was the last time I ate there...service and food were great as always...until the kitchen lady came out and wanted to take my plate...even though I was still eating...I just told her...that I just want to finish the schnitzel and she just said in annoyance...that she had enough to do and that I should hurry up...Where at that moment I really thought I wasn't hearing properly...She then went into the kitchen in annoyance and... complained to some gentleman about it...since I was sitting at the very last table...where the connection to the kitchen apparently is...you could hear them both very clearly as the lady and the gentleman complained loudly about me as a guest. .made fun of me and that kind of behavior is actually not acceptable

So for a star chef / or a snack bar that calls itself a professional grill, that's really a poor performance that is offered to you! The curry sauce is far too thin and has no power or taste at all! The sausage tastes mediocre, but the Aviko fries are okay! The meatballs for €2.50 taste like the pre-packaged ones from Lidl and are also dripping with oil The service is nice and works very quickly!

Yesterday, after many years, I ate a currywurst with fries mayo in the professional grill. Simply wonderful, the food, the ambience...The boss and his employees have hardly changed in 22 years. Friendly and competent as always. Thank you...and we'll be back.🍟👌👍

Delicious, authentic and simply great! Everything tastes different and wonderfully fresh! Thank you for this great meal in a real Ruhrpott atmosphere

Good food and friendly service. We would love to come back.

Everything is simply delicious and of the best quality. Homemade sauces, nothing out of the bucket. Friendly old school service. You can tell in everything that a trained specialist is working here. That's why I like to come to WAT from DO more often.

Absolutely tasty, especially for the lunch break. It's great that you can also pay by card. Good prices, friendly service and a cult ambience.

Hello, here from the county of Bentheim for a double currywurst and it was extremely tasty, plus a real, honest Ruhrpott ambience for free.

If you expect star cuisine, you're in the wrong place here. Anyone who is looking for something other than a kebab shop, Asian snack bar or pizza man and is open to Ruhr area nostalgia from the 70s will feel at home here. The 5th star would be there if there were also salt eggs.

As you can see, I have my driving address. I come from Oberhausen about 43km to enjoy my currywurst at Reimund's professional grill. And last but not least, I especially wanted to take the super sauce with me. Bon appetit.

The schnitzel was good, the portions were large. Very nice boss and very good and polite staff.

Super tasty and inexpensive, very friendly and the staff is always good

Eat good. If you are in Bochum, you have to go here. The salad is fresh, the sauce is homemade, no powder. I'll come back when I'm here!

The currywurst with fries wasn't as good as expected... but that's just my subjective opinion. But perhaps the expectations were too high. The service was quite ok, the ambience corresponds to the Ruhrpott cliché of the 70s - 80s. You have to like it.

A quaint little restaurant. The staff is very nice. The ambience is a journey back in time to the old Pott. The currywurst fries were very tasty, especially that the curry sauce is not sweet at all.

Traditional chip shop with a friendly owner. Always worth a trip.

Just had a meal. People who haven't been here have missed something. Great food and totally friendly. I haven't eaten such a good Jägerschnitzel and half a chicken for ages. We'll be regular customers from today on.

I don't understand how this can be the best currywurst. Our sausage was supposed to be warmed up in the deep fryer, which I find absolutely ridiculous. And yes, I saw it myself.

Best currywurst in the Ruhr area! High quality sausage (from your trusted butcher), fresh fries, fresh sauces. Eating in a typical chip shop in the Ruhr area.

The owner was very friendly and cut my currywurst with fries with additional chili peppers for me if I requested. Price performance here is definitely very good 👍

Average grill. No outliers in taste. Everything is edible, set up pretty much like a chip shop for a professional grill. Simple and tasteless. Still very popular. Must be doing something right after all.

Pott fries shop - but the schnitzels don't go into the deep fryer - only the fries were even better. Friendly people, just outside and quite clean, chip shop furnishings - just as you would expect. I'm glad it's still there!

A good classic chip shop and they even have real gyros! Fine! Authentic ambience.

I always enjoy eating a currywurst here. It tastes good here. Today we visited a shop nearby and finally thought, let's eat a currywurst! Less than 10 minutes later we were in the restaurant and ordered. You can park on the street, if you're lucky there are a few parking spaces. Attention, it's a 40 zone ;-) The waitresses were, as always, very friendly and nice and we also received our food quickly. Lovely garnished with a bit of parsley. The fries were nice and crispy and the currywurst was outstanding. If you're ever in the area, don't hesitate and try the sausage! The best currywurst in the pot ;-)

Addendum: I definitely got food poisoning! 😤 HANDS OFF!!! After all the good reviews I thought I'd give it a try there. Sorry but, the currywurst smelled strange, the fries may have been next to the salt but never saw any and the curry sauce was watery and not good. And the fact that the sausage was bad this afternoon is now evident from my extreme nausea and stomach problems. I should have trusted my nose and taste, but hunger at least accounted for half of it. And for 10€, you can get better for less money elsewhere. Conclusion: Unfortunately not recommended at all.

Nice and friendly. It's easy to sit there and the food is good too.

Very good fast food restaurant, everything tastes very good. The employees and the boss are very friendly.

Top snack in Wattenscheid! When we're out and about and drive past Wattenscheid, we go to the Profi Grill. I come all the way from East Westphalia and I'm totally thrilled. We recommend the gypsy schnitzel with fries. The service and the boss are very friendly. See you next time .

Absolutely delicious 😋. Fresh deliciousness 😋. Can be recommended without hesitation. I'll be back

Yes I can recommend this place. I've gotten fries several times. They're not so mushy and they're light and just really crispy.

A solid currywurst at a fair price.

We were there for the first time and ordered two gypsy schnitzels and a hunter schnitzel. The taste of the food was an 8/10, the portion was totally appropriate, the fries could have been a little more salted but they were also super tasty. The food was warm, as was the staff - very friendly. The place is really cute, the floor was a bit slippery but not a problem. We would like to come again!

A very good snack, simply part of the Ruhr area!

In Wattenscheid there is certainly an “institution”, the good old chip shop from “around the corner”! Real Ruhrpott style and nostalgically furnished. If you want to eat fresh schnitzel (made in the frying pan - not in the fryer), with fresh and homemade sauces and fried potatoes (there are also delicious fries 😉), this is the right place for you. Tastes great! In addition, the boss is very attentive and usually asks every guest whether it tastes good and whether they are satisfied. Guys, try it out and go! Clear recommendation!

Chip shop at its very best. Very, very tasty. Friendly service and an ambience as befits the Pott.

The restaurant took part in the culinary scavenger hunt. We were greeted very unfriendly. The staff seemed to be relatively annoyed by the visitors to this event. Only when asked was a vegetarian alternative reluctantly offered. The food is ok. The service needs improvement.

Original Ruhrpott "Frittenschmiede"

Everything great! Rustic atmosphere, very friendly staff and delicious food. We come more often now.

Good quality of the food. The schnitzels are traditionally fried and not deep-fried. The fries are crisp and fresh. The only small point of criticism: the sauces could have been a little hotter. The ambience has probably been intentionally unchanged for years and is “typical for a snack bar”.

We went out to eat for the first time today and had the classic Manta platter. We went there on the “recommendation” of the book “Ruhr area for lovers: The handbook with heart” We were treated so warmly, felt very comfortable, we would like to come back and have the book signed.

The name is program! Good food at friendly prices.

Simple, rustic like in earlier times. Familiar and delicious food. Always my pleasure. 🤗

Delicious food, nice service, chip shop

You can hardly find the original wire anymore. Food delicious... Ambiance... Simply original

A real chip shop with all the trimmings.

Cult snack bar in Bochum Wattenscheid. The former chef of a star restaurant took over this snack bar over 25 years ago and it seems like time has stood still with the furnishings. That's probably how it looked there in the mid-80s. The shop particularly scores points with its excellent homemade sauces and pan-fried schnitzels. Definitely worth a visit.

Were there on Saturday April 6th, 2024 at 6 p.m....the service was very unfriendly and it tasted much better...what's going on 🤔

Everything, literally everything I ate there tasted incredibly delicious. The Jägerschnitzel is served in a homemade sauce - and it shows. The boss and team are just very friendly and I always feel like a welcome guest there. Short and sweet: Super tasty, always.

We were there with our car club, great snack!! Here the schnitzel is still fried in the pan, everything is handmade. At the end I was given the shish kebab to try...what can I say, top top top as it should be, it fell apart in your mouth😁 Very nice and quick Personl just like the boss! Greetings go to Bochum, I'll be happy to come back... Peter

What a beautiful thing that was. French fries shop like it used to be when I was a child. It's been a long time. Please do not renovate. Then the flair is gone. Delicious schnitzel. Not from the deep fryer. Of course there are even better currywurst and fries. But everything was very tasty and it was clean too. We'd love to come back when we're in the Pott again. Stay as you are.

I've been coming for more than 20 years. You are always recognized, welcomed and people talk about the old days. The food is very tasty, especially the homemade sauces

Hotel located in the middle of the mountains with a beautiful panorama. Arrival only possible on foot, approx. 2 hours from the top station of the lift. Not recommended for untrained hikers.

Nomen est omen: The professional grill, our absolute favorite chip shop, if you're nearby, a visit is a must.

After years we were back at the Profi Grill, fries with mayonnaise and currywurst. The quality of the sausage was below average and the curry sauce was absolutely watered down. However, the fine taste of red Thai curry was positive, which unfortunately didn't get rid of the poor quality. The fries were good. The mayo is inconspicuous. Overall the food was disappointing. Visually, the snack bar is very old. The limit to the charm of the Ruhr area has been far exceeded. The service and the warmth of the boss remain good.

I've been going to Profi Grill all my life, but I have to say that the quality of the place has gone down quite a bit in the last two years. Just getting a gyro plate (~10€) is impossible. Of the last 5 times I tried it, 3 times the gyros grill wasn't even on, and 1 time the gyros had to be warmed up in the microwave, which again doesn't justify the price. A real shame

My currywurst with fries tasted good, the deciding factor was the curry sauce, which tasted very good! I took the food with me, but wouldn't eat there on site, a bit grubby. Unfortunately, the currywurst and fries were in a kind of plastic pot, with the currywurst lying under the fries! A wider bowl would be more practical when eating where you don't have to dig for the sausage 😉. The service was friendly, but should have seemed a little more well-groomed 😉. My request: Please ensure a well-kept atmosphere!! The eye eats too 😉

Great store. Great prices. Ruhrpott ambience.....fresh salads! Sauce is perfect and homemade. Again and again!

Excellent! Raimund has a nice chip shop and when I drive through Wattenscheid, I can't do it without stopping at his place.

If you want to eat the best currywurst in the Ruhr area, you can't ignore the professional grill. The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is truly Ruhrpott. Here you meet people from all social groups. Great !

Very very tasty👍 a real pot grill in pot style😎🖖

Currywurst fries mayo - what more could you want?

Curry fries mayo, awesome! That's how it has to be! Greetings from Ösi 😉

Simple eatery, sober but very clean. With pick-up service. Large selection of small meals or snacks, but of unsurpassed quality and taste and yet very reasonably priced.

A snack with heart! You meet people from near and far. On our way from Cologne to Münster we like to stop at Raimund's to eat a currywurst and a Holsteiner schnitzel. The professional grill proves again and again that even a snack bar can offer good quality and flawless preparation.

French fries mayo currywurst, absolute recommendation. In a chip shop from the 80s. Just go there

Currywurst as it should be and even better HOWEVER: you slip now, the floor is so greasy. Somehow a little disgusting

Everything was tip top, the store was extremely full and the service was totally relaxed, we were thrilled!!!! Keep it up, we had fun. 7 people were so quickly satisfied, it was great and it tasted great too!!!! Perfect !!!!

What feels like the only German chip shop. We drive from Düsseldorf to Wattenscheid to eat real currywurst fries. The cucumber cream salad and the mayo are also awesome.

Drove 30 km for a curry sausage. It was worth it again. Luckily he's not renovating the store. Everything clean and friendly. Thanks to the professional team.
