Restaurant Aresto in Hannover

Visit to the terrace in the late afternoon, which is beautifully located. However, leaves are not groomed. Drink selection is limited, there are no non-alcoholic aperitifs. Service was inattentive.

We sat in the wine bar in the basement, which was a bit dark for me personally. Unfortunately there were very few vegetarian options. I ended up eating a summer salad with feta and watermelon, which also tasted good, but wasn't anything special. The waitresses were very friendly, but often disappeared for a long time. However, it was also Friday evening.

The ambience is very luxurious, the waiter is simply personable and the food was the best Greek food I have ever had. All in all perfect and affordable too.

Very good and tasty food. The price-performance ratio matches the ambience of the restaurant and the surrounding area. With an ouzo before and after dinner it would be a perfect Greek evening...

The chicken was simply not cooked through, so deductions were made, as was the fact that there was neither a plate nor a knife with the bread and olive oil (in advance).

I went to this very busy restaurant on a Sunday evening. I was offered a small table. The service was quick and friendly. I got my food quickly and it tasted very good.

Very friendly staff and the food is very tasty

Jeg er i min gamle studieby Hannover med jevne mellomrom. Jeg er alltid innom den greske restauranten Aresto og det har HVER gang vært en god opplevelse. Veldig hyggelig betjening som gjør alt de kan for å tilfredsstille dine ønsker. Maten var svært god. Og vi følte oss som kongelige når vi ble bukket ut av restauranten . Veldig fornuftige priser og bra vinkart. Anbefales og det garanteres at det blir hyggelig !

The ARESTO is located in the heart of Hanover. Around a hundred seats within the elegant light brown seating underline the subtle elegance of the overall impression. The terrace directly on the banks of the Leine with the LEINEWELLE is one of the most beautiful places in Hanover. The ARESTO employees have been serving whatever your heart desires for over 3 decades.

Modern restaurant, beautifully located directly on the “Leine” in the government district of Hanover. The food, I had a grill plate, wasn't exactly cheap, but it was of high quality and taste. Also in terms of quantity, at least for me (183; 88kg) completely sufficient. You can put together your own starter salad beforehand. Good idea, you can leave out certain types of vegetables that you don't like to eat and instead eat more of the delicious ones, in my case olives or pepperoni. I, or the four of us, liked it. Afterwards everyone was full, happy and satisfied.

Beautiful ambience and good acoustics. The dishes were all great, vegetables were crunchy, meat was tender and the salad bar was fresh. Great service! And thanks again to the attentive young man who brought us the doggy bag that we had forgotten!!

Staff was very stressed. You had to wait a long time to even be able to place an order. The food that we saw on the tables looked quite good, but what I got outside of the house unfortunately looked completely different. A part was also missing and the prices were high.

Very nice atmosphere with very good service and excellent food. Dishes well prepared and good combination of meat and vegetables.

Totally weird moussaka in a cream sauce like Italian lasagne. Very strange

The restaurant was pretty busy for a Monday night. I had some feta cheese as a starter which was alright and an assortment of lamb meat which was very good and well cooked. The waiters that attended me spoke English and were friendly and attentive. The wine list is big and impressive, but unfortunately the more junior waiters (like the one who took my order) are not so knowledgeable about wine and grape varieties, which showed when I asked for a glass of wine. I suggest the waiters have a level in WSET so they can help the customers with their queries. Nice location and decor, I think this place is better to visit for lunch when you can enjoy the views outside.

Ended up here by chance. Really delicious food, I have never eaten such delicious gyros👌🏻👌🏻 Everything else was also prepared perfectly. Friendly service, after we received the food we had a lot of trouble with wasps (there is little they can do about it) and were immediately shown to another place, or possibly inside. Highly recommended!

We were there with about 40 people. Everything went smoothly, the food came for everyone almost at the same time and tasted very good. Special praise for the appetizer platter. The only, non-significant negative point: I would have liked a little more light in the basement. But that had no influence on the gastronomic performance.

Very beautiful and very tasty 🥰

Great restaurant with a great ambience, nice service, delicious food, like a day on vacation

The food was very good and sufficient 🍽️ My recommendation is also the Tartufo Pistachio dessert 👌🏻

Been here a few times now! And I have to correct myself from 4 to 5 stars. The best Greek for service and food in the greater Hanover area! Always worth a trip.

There were 9 of us with a dog and children, a table was quickly prepared for us, everything was very professional and quick, the waiters were attentive and very friendly, the starter and main course were delicious, lamb chops, hands and the pasta were all very good delicious and very nicely prepared. Price performance ratio is absolutely fine, we will definitely be back soon.

Lunch goes like this, but something nice was missing.

Friendly service, good food, what more could you want.

My husband and I can highly recommend it. Everything was great. The only thing they could do would be to sweep the area where the tables are. Because everything there is full of acorns. That looks very unkempt

The food was great. The view is amazing. And the waiters are really nice. Sea food is highly recommended

Quite tasty in itself, but the price is too high for the quality. You can do it. Next time I'm expecting an ouzo at the Greek!

Unfortunately, the prices of the dishes were too high for what we ordered because the portions we received were very small. Otherwise we were more or less satisfied. My previous review (3 stars with similar content) was blocked for "defamation". I assume that they probably wanted to remove the “worse” reviews. I am therefore giving a new rating, but with one star deducted. If this review is removed again, I can also reduce it to one star. After all, other guests have a right to honest reviews and opinions.

The spectacular place on the banks of the river, the food very good and the waiters super attentive and friendly

Very good Greek food, very friendly waiters and the restaurant's location is unbeatable.

We were there for the first time. Very good food, great staff and great ambience

The ambience was good but the prices were way too high for the quality of the food

The food came quickly and was really tasty. The service was excellent and the ambience was very pleasant. We would be happy to do it again.

Nicely located Greek restaurant, service was good and attentive. The food was OK.

The food, turkey gyros, was really good. Unfortunately the service is not that good. Yes, it was full, but well-known guests were treated differently by this waiter. We had to order our second drink ourselves; we weren't asked whether we needed anything else.

Posto carino a ridosso di un canale al centro do Hannover. Ci hanno accolto con cortesia. Dopo l'ordine sono passati 45 minuti prima che la cena venisse servita. Nel frattempo ci hanno comunicato che l'insata era self service, una per ordine, con fare scostante. Mi sono servita una seconda insalata e un addetto si è avvicinato seccatamente per dirmi che la dovevo pagare...veramente scortesia per ospiti. Si mangia bene

What's wrong with a pleasant restaurant? Don't come to this place again.

Very tasty food, very friendly service. You will be screened (thanks!). The portions are a bit small, but the location is even nicer!

Great location right on the leash. Food sensational, wine top and service first class.

Beautiful restaurant on the banks of the Leine next to the Lower Saxony state parliament. Stylishly furnished, great service, very good cuisine at fair prices. Again and again! Highly recommended!!

Beautifully located and totally nice and attractively furnished outside and inside. The first irritation right at the beginning: If you want to sit outside, you won't be seated, but instead have to choose a free table. I find it extremely unpleasant when you're competing for tables with other guests who arrive at the same time. We then waited more than an hour for our food, while neighboring tables that arrived later had already eaten. The apology came, but rather half-heartedly. In general, you didn't see much of the service. Food mediocre: rice and meat tasted average. At the end there is the sudden request that you want to cash in. Without offering a dessert menu or anything similar and of course further justification. It will probably stay with just one visit.

Authentic Greek food, good view of Liene. A pretty vibrant ambience, good customer service. Vegetarian mains options are minimal, Lamm and Fisch are good.

Everything delicious and fresh. Service was very, very nice and friendly

Very nice restaurant on the leash. Directly on the “Leinewelle”. The food was very good and the portions weren't too small.

Top food and super attentive service .

Im ARESTO wurden wir noch nie enttäuscht. Das Fleisch schmeckt uns immer sehr gut und auch der Lachs war frisch und hervorragend zubereitet. Tolles Salatbuffet! Es ist zwar etwas teurer als beim „Griechen um die Ecke“ - aber das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis passt einfach. Wenn man draußen sitzt, kann man sogar die Surfer auf der Leinewelle beobachten.

Great location and nice decor. The service staff was very friendly. It wasn't particularly busy but the waiting time was still quite long at over an hour. The food was ok, but unfortunately nothing more. We were disappointed with the starter plate as it consisted exclusively of dips/creams. We've had much better Greek food and at a much lower price. There was bulgur with the gyros, but unfortunately it didn't taste good. With fries there is an extra 5.50 euros. Price performance doesn't fit here.

It was delicious, I really liked it. Good red wine🧡

We had a great lunch with a friend and enjoyed both the food and the service. Definitely worth recommending.

The greek place in hannover - I would always recommend!!! We had a variation of gyros and some delicious starters. Wine Menu is crazy

Disappointing service despite a nice location We visited the restaurant today, on a Sunday, and unfortunately had a disappointing experience. While most guests sat outside, we decided to sit inside. Unfortunately, this turned out to be a mistake as the service was absolutely poor. The waiters seemed to completely ignore us and we had to actively draw attention to ourselves every time to even be served. The friendliness of the staff also left a lot to be desired. The food itself was OK, but definitely nothing special. Unfortunately, the meat was completely cooked through and therefore no longer juicy. After this experience, we skipped dessert because it just took too long for someone to come to our table - our patience was at an end. It's a shame, because the location of the restaurant is really nice and promising. Unfortunately, the poor service severely spoiled the overall impression.

Very good lunch at a correct price in a nice place with a view of the Leinewelle.

Every dish tasted excellent, very interesting combinations.

Very good cuisine....... CALAMARIS LACE

High end Greek cousin made from fresh ingredients. Very good wine selection.

The dishes are very attractively prepared and of the best quality. We'll meet Again.

Everything perfect, super good. Were very happy with our gyros.

Children's portion for €18 I don't want to know what the correct children's portion looks like.

La Piazza has really good and tasty food. Always my pleasure.

We went here for dinner with the family. The food was simply perfect from the starter to the lamb plate to the dessert. Thank you also for the wine cellar tour! We will definitely come back on our next visit to Hanover.

Quite a wonderful place to have a nice time. Culinary, ambience, everything.

Where can you eat delicious food and watch the surfers at the same time?

Everything was super tasty and friendly service 👍😋

Rarely eaten so deliciously. Service was also great.

The traditional dishes tasted excellent.

The food was very tasty and the atmosphere was really nice. The only reason I give it 1 star is because there were 6 of us. And 4 of us had a stomach ache after eating. Otherwise everything was good.

A total of 7 people visited the Aresto restaurant. The group included a wheelchair user and a person with a walker. The service was great and unique. People with disabilities were also welcome in the Aresto restaurant. Unfortunately, access is not barrier-free. But here we immediately got help going up and down the stairs. The friendly waitress immediately organized help and was also empathetic to the guests with disabilities. We were amazed 😲 how cool we were helped there. We ate and drank something there. The entire group would like to say thank you very much. With kind regards the group with the 7 guests

The staff and owner always provide first class service and the food is excellent.

Very good food, at a fair price. The staff very friendly and attentive. Very nice and large wine list. The location right on the water. We'll come back again.

I was at Aresto Essen a few days ago with my wife and children, the service and the quality of the food were great. I can recommend it to everybody.

Service at the end with a long waiting time and ignorance

The restaurant is in a great location, right on the banks of the Leine, it is super idyllic and romantic. The service was ok, it always took a while to get someone's attention, despite the restaurant being quite empty. The food was ok, solidly cooked, not extravagant. Only one piece of the chicken skewer was a little too pink on the inside. Prices are really ok. But it's all fresh. The calamari are not frozen goods.

Just perfect. High quality food, attentive unobtrusive service. The interior and terrace are very attractive. And not to forget, very, very tasty 😋 Thank you for the lovely evening.

Actually it is very nice place, nicely decorated inside and outside. The waiter who served us seemed a bit annoyed, maybe it was because it was a very busy day because it was very busy. I really enjoyed the food, but unfortunately an hour later I got a terrible stomach ache and spent the rest of the day in the bathroom :(

Absolutely delicious food, good price-performance ratio, we were a group of 16 people, everything was reliably arranged and reserved, gladly again!

We went to Aresto for a business dinner. The food was really delicious and the portions are generous. The wine list is very extensive.

Chic but cozy restaurant, very good food, great service!

I've eaten here twice now and each time the experience was lovely. The service is great, the food is simply indescribably delicious and the restaurant itself is also great. It is located directly on the water, which offers a beautiful view with outdoor seating. It is also close to the city center and the old town. The price-performance ratio is perfect. It's worth a visit! It is definitely recommended😍🤗

In der Altstadt Hannovers an der „Leinewelle“ gelegen. Wir haben schon mehrmals im Aresto gespeist, das Essen war immer lecker. Besonders empfehlen können wir das mit Käse gefüllte Rindfleischbifteki und das schottische Lammfleisch. Gutes Salatbuffet! Achtung: Wenn an der Leinewelle eine Veranstaltung stattfindet, kann es bei geöffneten Fenstern im Restaurant zu Lärmbelästigung kommen.

Great restaurant, great food, great service.

The food is always delicious and the service is consistently great.

Good food in a pleasant atmosphere If you want to eat Greek, this is the place for you

Very nice atmosphere and delicious food!

Great location, great atmosphere, but got ignored twice for service.

Delicious food, good service, great location right on the leash. Food and drinks very tasty, but higher priced

Stopped here for lunch and were very satisfied. Gladly again

It was great, service was great, very friendly!! (especially Rena's ;) )

Located directly on the Leine, the restaurant is top class. Very nice atmosphere inside and out with special highlights. The food is tasty and the price is absolutely reasonable. Maybe season a little more intensively beforehand. The friendliness of the staff is particularly exceptional.

Delicious food, outside on the terrace in the sunshine. Splendid!

The food was delicious for everyone in the group. The service is good and friendly. The restaurant offers pleasant hospitality indoors and outdoors.

Baywatch coach Sebastian Winkler gives 5 stars for the best lamb I've ever eaten. The service was great...the salad buffet wasn't great, but the food was well prepared and tasted just as good. With sporty greetings, Baywatch coach Sebastian Winkler from the Rent a Trainer Club Berlin

Unpleasant service, unfriendly, evil eye! Lemon on the plate not fresh. Funny.

Great terrace on the Hohe Ufer! And if you're lucky, also with a view of the goings-on at the "Leinewelle". The food is very tasty, so you're happy to pay a little more for the quality. The service was very friendly! It's always a pleasure to come back.

The atmosphere, the food, the service (especially from Samir) are bombastic. We will be happy to visit this restaurant again and again and can warmly recommend this restaurant as a first stop for Greek food. The portions are absolutely reasonable for the price. All in one: great!

We spontaneously went for lunch and came across the “Aresto” by chance. As soon as we were greeted and entered this beautiful restaurant, we were thrilled. The location is ideal on the banks of the Leine and we look forward to being able to sit outside in the summer. We can only describe the culinary offerings in one word: legendary! Samir's service was great and we can recommend Aresto as one of the most beautiful Greek restaurants in Hanover.

Fantastic food, nice and courteous service from Samir. Great, relaxed atmosphere. Great value for money!

Delicious food, gyros are available from pork or poultry. Salad from the buffet. Large selection of wines. Service is nice and polite.

Great location. Unfortunately, the food didn't convince me at this price. Unfortunately, the cleanliness in the beer garden left a lot to be desired. I don't know what the dried out bread on the table was supposed to do either. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this restaurant. The service isn't exactly hospitable either. A PITY

The visit, the food, the staff just perfect. Thank you and anytime

Stylish restaurant. Cozy outdoor area by the water. Very courteous staff, delicious food.
