Restaurant Knossos in Bad Soden-Salmünster

Today I had a very good small lunch menu. A small beer, soup, salad, fries with souvlaki and tzatziki, and a quzo for €12.60. Highly recommended.

I visited for the first time during rehab, and everything was delicious. I'm thrilled and will definitely go back a few more times. The baklava, in particular, was heavenly! Indescribable! The service was excellent; the chef personally stops by every now and then to check if everything is okay. Simply a wonderful, welcoming atmosphere. The interior is also very tasteful. Excellent value for money! Conclusion: I'll be eating dinner there more often now than at the hospital. Best, Simone

Everything was perfect. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was so lovely. I'll definitely be back.☺️

Here, the cooking and baking, serving, and conversation are carried out with incredible love. The servers regularly make the rounds to see how they can extend the hospitality to guests even further. Appetizer: Unfortunately, the octopus is often sold out, which is a testament to the quality. But the mixed appetizer plate with spinach cream, fish egg paste, tzatziki, and chili feta cheese cream, along with roasted vegetables in olive oil (especially the hot roasted eggplant, which doesn't soak up the water) and baguette, was close to the size of a main course. The truly aromatic pita bread with olive oil and oregano wouldn't have been necessary, but even that: a delight! Main Course: The gyro and the souvlaki I ate were good quality: not tough, not stringy, simply really good. The meat was cooked to perfection, beautifully roasted, juicy, and had everything you'd expect. And a BONUS: Don't oversalt it, which increases the drink bill. Someone here truly understands that, to ensure adequate succulence, well-cooked meat shouldn't be salted too much in the pan to prevent it from seeping through osmosis (balancing the salt concentration). Instead, salt and pepper are the way to go. The tzatziki is also not too salty and not too garlicky, but just the right balance between garlicky spice and the freshness of the yogurt, with a bit more of a freshness factor. Dessert: I tried baklava because I'd heard that the Greek version uses different nuances than the floral notes in the syrup or filo pastry, and...I wasn't disappointed: This flavor is perfectly rounded off and gives you a Christmassy nut wonderland feeling, transforming you into a little kid again! Dessert: I tried baklava because I'd heard that the Greek version uses other nuances than the floral notes in the syrup or filo pastry, and...I wasn't disappointed: This flavor is perfectly rounded off and gives you a Christmassy nut wonderland feeling, transforming you into a little kid again! The honey-flavored syrup is perfectly balanced with a nut filling made of coarsely chopped walnuts, pistachios, and almonds, which were obviously roasted in a pan before being mixed into the mixture. That's attention to detail. There's also a subtle hint of cardamom and spices in the mixture. These, along with the roasted aromas of the nuts, give the entire filo pastry a special kick that you can smell and taste. This dessert, baked in-house in the restaurant, truly blew me away, so I tipped it 15-20% without hesitation. The ouzo at the end is, of course, a must. This shop is a golf treasure that deserves to be appreciated and enjoyed much more in the region. As a spa guest, I visited several times and really enjoyed it!

We chose the Greek restaurant because it has a lovely enclosed terrace with plenty of sunshine. After ordering our food, I noticed that many guests were smoking, even though it was a private setting. After asking the waitress, we were told that this is common practice, although other guests politely preferred to go outside to smoke. The waitress tried to move us to another table in the non-smoking area, but all the tables were occupied or reserved. It's also relatively dark and sunny, and doesn't have a great view. The food and dessert were excellent, but unfortunately, they don't have the typical Greek mocha coffee... Next time, make a reservation.

Very friendly staff. Very good food. Both the starter and main course were very tasty. Good value for money. We'll definitely be back.

Friendly, attentive staff. Lovely ambiance. Excellent, delicious food. Restaurant just a few steps behind the thermal baths. The restaurant is located on the edge of the spa gardens. We'd gladly return.

We arrived early and had trouble getting a seat inside. A visit to this restaurant is highly recommended; very friendly and attentive service, excellent Greek cuisine, generous portions, and reasonable prices. Reservations are recommended; smoking is permitted in the enclosed, covered outdoor area. Reservations are advisable. The restaurant was completely full by 6:00 PM on Friday, which also speaks volumes about the restaurant.

The dishes on the menu are varied and high-quality, and the prices are excellent. The team is very friendly and flexible. We've made new friends here. Thank you for your hospitality, Team Knossos ❤️

You sit in a closed room where everyone smokes. The indoor smoking area is much smaller, darker, and already reserved. We didn't know that people are allowed to smoke here. Is it possible that something like this could happen in a spa? I'll report it. The food and service are excellent. We ordered appetizers, wine, and Galakto beer. Very good.

A very pleasant and friendly atmosphere. A good and large selection of dishes. From snacks for a light appetite to a more substantial meal. The portion was more than sufficient. The service was very friendly and attentive. Definitely worth a visit.

Very good food. Reasonable price. Average service. We would visit the restaurant again anytime.

We recently visited for the first time, enjoying the best weather. The extremely positive reviews were a deciding factor. Now I'll allow myself to share my own experience. This results in another 5 stars for the restaurant. We long for more enjoyable hours there! The friendliness, attentiveness, and quality of the food are what motivate us. The attractive view of the well-kept spa gardens rounded off the experience.

Great, definitely back. The food was great and so was the service.

Without decoration the food...simple

Very nice waitress and can be recommended

Very nice owner and waiter, can recommend and the food is incredibly delicious

We've been here a few times. The food is simply delicious. Just what you'd expect from a good Greek restaurant.

We actually wanted to eat there, but the waitress (a blonde woman) was sitting at the table drinking Coke and smoking a cigarette. The boss should take a closer look at what his employees are doing.

As always everything was very good... special praise for the service

Knossos Restaurant: Visited for the first time. I ordered a grilled platter with liver souvlaki, steak, and gyros, along with a side salad. The meat was very good, but unfortunately it got cold quickly (I'm a slow eater). Instead of fries, I got some kind of wedges, which were good. A downside: the side salad was too simple for me, with cocktail sauce and a few olives and feta cheese. The service was quite friendly, but he forgot the salt and pepper, even though I asked for them. The restaurant is right next to the park. There's plenty of parking.

A solid restaurant with very friendly and helpful service. Very fair value for money and a good selection on the menu. Unfortunately, wheelchair access is limited. The restrooms are located in the basement. There are no accessible restrooms. The entrance is accessible with an escort via a steep ramp with a threshold at the end.

A superb, stylish restaurant with incredibly fair prices. I discovered this restaurant a few weeks ago and have been showing it to new friends ever since :) You can really taste it; only high-quality, fresh products are used in the food, and before the main course, there are delicious appetizers and salads. The schnitzels are always tender as butter, and the Metaxas sauce tastes like heaven! Simply cloud nine...👌 The staff are incredibly polite and accommodating, simply of the highest quality. The indoor and outdoor areas are cozy and inviting. The washrooms/restrooms are always freshly cleaned and smell wonderful; everything is simply spotless. There's real attention to detail in this restaurant. The large, covered outdoor area also offers plenty of space to breathe and linger. If you're looking for a truly beautiful place to celebrate your birthday or anniversary with family and friends, this is the place for you. That's why I recommend it as often as possible...👌

Quietly located near the spa gardens, with wheelchair access. Friendly, attentive staff.

Having to wait 90 minutes for food is clearly too long. To justify it by saying that our order "somehow slipped to the bottom"... well, okay. The service at the table was good. But good service also includes answering questions when such delays occur. Repeatedly saying "coming right away" as you walk by isn't enough. Especially since the business was manageable at that time, and neighboring tables were already being served, which hadn't been occupied for 30 minutes. Other guests also wanted to pay for their drinks and didn't want to wait any longer. We had four different dishes. Everything was OK, but unfortunately, what was served wasn't much more. Above a certain price point, one naturally has higher expectations of quality, taste, and quantity. I had hoped for a bit more. The location and ambiance are quite good. Whether that's enough is up to each individual to decide.

Very tasty😋!!! Only the service was a little busy that day. (Events nearby) Which wasn't a problem for us in the group; we had a little more time to chat. About the food: It was very tasty. But maybe a little tzatziki with the feta cheese wouldn't be a bad idea.

The food was delicious and the service super friendly and attentive. We'd love to come back.

The food is super delicious; I always enjoy going there with my friends. The staff is very friendly and humorous, especially the young, handsome waiter with the blond curls who does a wonderful job. I'm always very satisfied and hope to see the blond young man again.

Don't bother going here. Arrived 40 minutes prior the published closing time for lunch but was rejected as the kitchen was not willing to offer even a salad. Zero customer service.

Today, on July 9, 2025, we ate there again. Totally satisfied. Very good food. A very nice lady served us very friendly. The chef is also extremely accommodating. It's very important to him that everything is perfect. The Knossos restaurant is highly recommended! The food is delicious. See you next time :-)

We were there for the second time and, as always, were not disappointed. The food was delicious and highly recommended. The chef and staff are very, very friendly. The portions were large and flavorfully seasoned. Plus, the atmosphere is great, right next to the spa gardens. If you like Greek food, you'll love it here. Very good value for money. We'll be back!

Very good food at fair prices. Very friendly service.

The staff was very friendly...but after 50 minutes, I politely asked when my gyro with extra salad would arrive. Unfortunately, it was forgotten. It happens sometimes. Not so bad. The salad arrived immediately. I ordered extra onions for my gyro because there were far too few, unfortunately without coleslaw, which I wasn't used to, but when I asked, they kindly explained to me that it wasn't common in Greece. Oh well.... I found the gyro itself too greasy and not crispy enough. The fries were very good. The ouzo on the house was unfortunately lukewarm. That would also be common. I've only ever had it ice cold, which I always preferred...oh well. Unfortunately, I left it there. As a non-smoker, I didn't like the fact that smoking is allowed in the "awning." It's described as "outside" with two openings...oh well. I'll try a different restaurant next time.

Not recommended, chef not open to criticism - ordered medium...received well-done...service was friendly but lacking in service! A real shame...

I was at this restaurant yesterday, and it was absolutely fantastic! I ordered a fish platter and it was absolutely delicious! I've never eaten such good fish before; the salmon was really juicy, the scallops were crispy, and the prawns were too. I can recommend this restaurant to everyone! Everyone can eat really well there. The waiters were also very nice and helpful. I recommend it wholeheartedly!

The Knossos restaurant impresses with authentic Greek cuisine, fresh ingredients, and a warm, family-friendly atmosphere. The gyros is wonderfully tender, the tzatziki fresh and spicy – ​​you can taste the quality in every bite. Vegetarians will also find delicious options. The service is fast, friendly, and very attentive. You immediately feel welcome, as if you were visiting friends. A glass of ouzo completes the experience. Definitely a place to feel good – we'll be happy to come back!

The service, the food, and the chef are amazing. We were both guests and friends.

Partly. It was only when I was paying that I was told that card payments were only possible for amounts over €50.00.

Nice staff, especially the young waiter with the curly hair did a really good job, incredibly personable! 🥰 The food was delicious

A great restaurant, highly recommended! I ate here with my family last weekend and was truly surprised. The food was first-class, truly delicious, and the staff took their time and treated us wonderfully. We'll be back!

I love eating there with my children. It's always an unforgettable experience. I definitely recommend it. Everything is top-notch, the food is always fresh and delicious.

We visited on Sunday – the food was absolutely delicious, especially the calamari, which was once again very good. The staff were very friendly, attentive, and child-friendly. You immediately feel at home, and the value for money is also good. See you soon!

Delicious delicious delicious 😋

Very good Greek cuisine. friendly staff... price-performance ratio is right... always happy.

5 stars Four of us were there today without a reservation and got a table straight away. The boss greeted us personally and introduced himself to each of us - a very personal and pleasant gesture! The staff was attentive and took the order straight away. The wait for the food was short and everything tasted excellent. All in all a perfect visit – we would love to come back!

Super delicious food and really nice service. Top: there are 4 or 5 dishes for everyone as a small person. Not just for children or seniors. Many restaurants can learn something from this 👍🏻 The price-performance ratio is right for both the small and normal-sized portions.

It's all ok. Reasonable portions at fair prices.

Gyros, skewers and liver to the point, the liver is world class, super friendly staff, gladly again!

Unfortunately the salad was not with vinegar and oil but with cocktail sauce. I'm not familiar with Greek food like that. Gyros was very dry and my rosemary potatoes and pite were unfortunately drowned in oil. Lamb chop was tender. Portions are ok, value for money too.

Very nice restaurant with very tasty food. The staff is so friendly and warm. I'd love to come back again and again.

Is this the best Greek? I don't know, I haven't been to everyone yet. But you get super tasty food and that's topped off by the super friendly and courteous service. Anyone who comes here will definitely not be disappointed. Gladly again!

Highly recommended, menu flawless and good, everything perfect

It was okay, but the taste was nothing special for us. Service was nice. Portions were sometimes quite small.

Very tasty food and great friendly service. We really enjoyed it yesterday. If we are in Bad Soden again, we would be happy to come back.

I had very good meals here 4 times. The people I brought with me were also very happy with the food. Everything you eat there is delicious. Even an acquaintance from the rehabilitation clinic in Bad Orb was so overwhelmed by the food that he moved his farewell dinner here and all his fellow patients were enthusiastic about the food. Enjoy it.

Great food, very friendly service, and good prices. I'd gladly go again.

Very tasty, friendly service, happy to smile at guests—simply excellent. I don't like the huge plastic tent in front of the entrance, but that's just my very subjective opinion. Everything else is really good. When you're in rehab, you'll definitely enjoy eating there again and again.

Wir sind hier immer Willkommen, fühlen uns wertgeschätzt und lieben diese Atmosphäre direkt am Kurpark. Das Essen ist lecker, die Weinauswahl gut. Ja, wenn viel los ist und neues Personal da ist kann es mal länger dauern aber das trübt unseren allgemeinen Eindruck nicht. Sehr freundlich, sehr lecker! Immer wieder gerne

Friendly staff and delicious food.

Nicht satt geworden aber die kleinen Portionen haben gut geschmeckt.Schade das man Salat extra zahlen muss sind wir wo wir herkommen anders gewohnt.Dann haben die Kellner oft gefragt (uns zu oft)aber als wir wirklich was hätten brauchen können kam Keiner mehr .Für uns der erste und letzte Besuch wenn wir im Urlaub wieder hier sind

Cozy atmosphere, very friendly service and delicious food. Highly recommended!

Knossos...you can't go wrong there. Nice attentive staff, good food at normal prices. We'd love to come back.

Had reserved a table for 4 people at short notice. Got the last table that evening. The service was very friendly and attentive. The food was very good for everyone and the price was also normal. The owners are both very friendly and attentive. I can really recommend it to everyone, I would love to come by again.😋

The service in this restaurant is above average friendly and accommodating, very pleasant! This is a reason for me to have visited this restaurant several times even though I don't live nearby. The food is good and the seating is comfortable too. I will definitely come back.

Closes at 2:30pm on a Saturday I can't rate the food service, unfortunately I didn't enjoy it because it was closed and didn't open again until 5:30 p.m

We ate there for the first time today because we are on the motorhome parking space. We were warmly welcomed with 2 dogs. Service and food came very quickly... Quantity was plentiful and very tasty 😊... Absolutely recommended.. We had the No.45 and 46 and a side salad

Great food, super friendly staff, came spontaneously and got a table. We felt really comfortable. The food was really great

Busy Greek restaurant. Friendly service.

I'm in rehab here and I have to say grade 1 from the reception to the farewell. Thanks for that!!!!!!

Very nice restaurant. Food was top. 5 dishes, all great.

The restaurant has had a tent-like porch for years, which leaves a lot to be desired. It is damp and very cold in the room. It is also very cold in the restaurant. There is a tiled stove in the restaurant. Unfortunately the oven is not heated. This deteriorates the whole ambience. Especially in December you are looking for warmth.

Very nice service, very good food, I highly recommend it

Very nice service, you feel like you're part of the family. The food is delicious💋💋

Great restaurant and incredibly tasty. The grill mixes can be ordered blind. Great service, friendly service and moderate prices.

Very good food! Very attentive, professional staff, we were very satisfied 😊

We went here for a girls' holiday and were really lucky price-performance As well as great service and the very nice owner, we can only recommend it and would come here again and again 😍

Top restaurant!!! With the best Greek in the area 😍

Nice place, very friendly service, food great

Very tasty food and super nice service. Even though it was very busy, the service worked wonderfully. We can recommend the restaurant with a clear conscience.

Very nice restaurant with a very pleasant atmosphere. You immediately feel good! Very nice, courteous service. The food tastes very tasty and is freshly prepared. The empty plates are removed immediately. Gladly again! We haven't felt so comfortable in a restaurant for a long time!

The guest is still welcome. Good food and nice team.

Outstanding, Top 5+. Quality and warmth are great, always happy again

Nice atmosphere right next to the park. Definitely even nicer on the terrace in summer. Good selection of different Greek dishes. There is even something delicious for vegetarians. Service very fast and super nice. We'll definitely be back.

It's too uncomfortable for me and the food is rather untypical for a Greek... A matter of taste!

It's always delicious and the employees and the boss are just great!

Very good taste, nice staff and reasonable prices👍🏼

A lovely evening with delicious food and very friendly staff.

Very good Greek restaurant, great value for money, plenty on the plate and really very tasty 😋

Wir waren anlässlich meines Geburtstage im Restaurant Knossos. Das Essen war soweit ganz in Ordnung, allerdings war das Personal völlig überfordert mit dem Service. Das Essen dauerte fast eine Stunde bis es auf den Tisch kam. Nachbestellte Getränke mussten mehrfach angefordert werden. Auf der Endrechnung stimmte einiges nicht.(Hätte ich aber gleich an Ort und Stelle reklamieren müssen, habe es erst zu Hause bemerkt) Der übliche Ouzo nach der Begleichung der Rechnung wurde uns leider auch verwehrt, aber das ist Sache des Restaurant´s. Wir waren schon einige mal in diesem Restaurant und waren immer sehr zufrieden, bis an diesem Tage. Schade!

Clean, tasty and very friendly service. Top!!!!! I would love to go there again and again.

Very tasty food. Nice service, portion was large for the price. Additionally Metaxasauce costs €4 or €4.50, which is a bit expensive. You sit outside in the spa gardens, nice atmosphere

Very good food and super nice and attentive service

Very long wait for the food to arrive but the food was very tasty

Very tasty and the price seemed cheap. But the portion was far too small. I wasn't full. My 12 year old son grabbed the same portion.

Very good Greek restaurant! The food, especially the meat, is fantastically seasoned and very tender. Absolutely friendly and courteous service. Here they try to fulfill every wish. Large terrace with many seats invites you to look out over the spa park. Reservations are recommended on weekends. Be sure to try the desserts too.

Very good Greek food. Fresh ingredients.

The food was very tasty. It was very well attended.

I was very disappointed Only the price differences for the same side salad. You forgot to change it. Then no hackstaek. Ok, ordered souflaki. A blonde waitress came and we didn't have any more. Only gyros. Afterwards they could only give us bifteky. Hellooo, they won't see me again anytime soon, despite my attempted friendliness. There are other Greeks too!!!!!!!!

It's like a day on vacation. Great food and absolutely nice service. You'll be happy to come back
