Restaurant Kuhlinaria in Cuxhaven

Ate schnitzel with pepper sauce and fried potatoes, very tasty and top service For me the best schnitzel in the north 😎

Unfortunately, I can't really agree with the enthusiastic reviews. My husband had the schnitzel Viennese style, which was fine. I treated myself to the hanging surf and turf skewer for 28.90 euros. The shrimp were okay, the potato chips and dip were very tasty. The steak meat was a disaster, I ate 2 pieces, it was almost impossible to chew. I couldn't chew the third piece at all. Completely tough. As we were clearing away the waiter asked if it was tasty. I showed her the piece of meat and also said that it couldn't be eaten. Well, she wasn't interested, and apparently she didn't pass it on. We paid and left. We won't be coming back. “Feel-good service” looks different.

We are repeat offenders and would not be disappointed. Simply great!!! Despite reservations, a table was made available to us at short notice. Service and food were absolutely great!!! Prices are absolutely fine for today's times, almost too low!

Were there for my wife's birthday. Very friendly staff and the food was super tasty. We'd love to come back.

Very good steak and schnitzel house. Quality and quantity excellent.

We waited 1.5 hours for our food, which came out completely bland, unseasoned and without any sophistication. This chef doesn't know his craft. Too bad, no recommendation.

Wir sind das erste mal hier gewesen. Super Service und sehr freundliche Bedienung. Getränke, Brot mit Salz und Öl und dann das Essen kamen sehr schnell. 10 Sterne für die Küche alles aufn Punkt gegrillt und die Zutaten auch bestens. Wir werden nicht das letzte Mal da gewesen sein. Tisch sollte man aber reservieren. Vielen Dank für diesen Abend. Speise :Grillteller, Scholle

I was eating at Kuhlinaria with my girlfriend at the weekend. We booked online and everything worked out. The meat was a dream and Susanne the waitress, probably also the owner, did everything to make you feel comfortable. Thank you very much, we'll be happy to come back. Steffi with Frank🙏🏾🫶🏻

The schnitzel was very good, a good price-performance ratio. Unfortunately the service was a bit overwhelmed and it took a long time.

Yesterday I was in the mood for a proper schnitzel. And what is closer to the Seedeich and the Alte Liebe than the Kuhlinaria Restaurant. As a greeting from the kitchen there was fresh Mediterranean baguette with oil and seasoned salt. - Very tasty 😋 I ordered the lumberjack schnitzel (I think that was what it was called 🤔🙈) i.e. the schnitzel with mushrooms & braised onion. You could see that the schnitzel was hand-beaten and breaded. Big, tender and deliciously seasoned. The mushrooms and onions were also great and tasty. The service was friendly, quick and attentive. There was nothing to complain about and the price/performance ratio was absolutely great. It is therefore advisable to reserve in advance, especially if there are several people. The Kuhlinaria was well attended👍

Top service, the food was just great.

MEGA!!! Super mega delicious food, friendly service, pleasant atmosphere. We felt completely comfortable!

Food and location TOP and a very friendly boss!

Very good steaks. Perfectly fried medium well. Fried potatoes were also very good. It is advisable to choose a side salad with it. Then it's perfect. Elaborately furnished. A little color didn't hurt. Still 👍🏻 Steak prices ok.

We were there spontaneously after a call on a Sunday evening - and got a table reserved. The service was very quick, very nice and uncomplicated as well as extremely humorous. The order was received quickly and then processed very quickly. The food came promptly and was really well crafted. The greeting from the kitchen in advance was also nice. We will definitely visit this restaurant again and are looking forward to it.

Super nice service and first of all the food. Super delicious 😋, and I also thought the decor was really great.

Visited the restaurant for the first time. Highly recommended. Super friendly service. Food came quickly, was super tasty and plentiful. In the season you should reserve in advance. We'll be back.

We were here on New Year's Eve 2024. Food was great, service was very friendly, atmosphere was good. We would love to come back and can highly recommend the restaurant!

Unfortunately I can't rate the food because after 2 hours and 15 minutes we still hadn't received anything. Unfortunately, no apology and no accommodation. The atmosphere is great, but the staff is unfortunately completely overwhelmed. You shouldn't accept so many reservations if the kitchen simply can't handle it logistically. The food was also returned to the next table. Too bad!

Were there for the first time, highly recommended. Food was very tasty, large portions. Nice atmosphere, nice employees. Price/performance is completely ok

First of all I have to say that I was here a few weeks ago and was satisfied at the time, not thrilled but satisfied, so much so that they said you can come back. We were there yesterday on a Saturday evening for 7 people with a reservation. It's logical that you can't expect to have your food within 20 minutes or so, especially at times like this, it was busy. However, after about 15 minutes we had all ordered our food, which was around 7:45 p.m. It was mostly schnitzel, 1 steak (more on that later)... As I said, we had to wait a bit was to be expected... But that only happened at 9.30 p.m. - 9.45 p.m., without even a comment in between like "we're sorry "We haven't forgotten you" left us more than annoyed and we said several times that we actually wanted to leave (since we were all hungry as some of us were still working, we stayed). But what was also great was that we were able to observe that guests came after us (2.3 parties) and those in front of us had to eat. Well, food came. We all had schnitzel, most of them XXL with the toppings we wanted, and said: The schnitzel itself wasn't really seasoned and was very bland. You decide for yourself what topping you want, so you can't really complain, unless you actually want a tomato sauce like I did and since there wasn't any, they simply cut cocktail tomatoes in half and put them on top, well, that wasn't my thing. The positive thing is that you can apparently wish for anything, I had asked for spaghetti on it, that was done and THEY were really tasty. So now to the steak I just mentioned. At this point it can be argued whether it was ONLY the waitress's fault BUT, we were guests, of course we drooled endlessly, you don't always think about it, but that's why I'm going to eat and pay for the service. They did NOT ask how the guest wanted their steak, I have NEVER experienced that. Of course the steak was wrong and was not liked that way. When we asked after a few minutes why we hadn't eaten the steak, the complaint was that it was too much to discuss. So please, after a good 2 hour wait, dare to discuss things with a guest. I think it's very brave. We also didn't understand why schnitzels take so long and joked that a funeral service was held for the poor pig before they were prepared. So the plates were empty (except one person who refused to get a new steak, which wasn't charged either, would have been even nicer). We actually asked for a menu for dessert, but it still didn't come after 2.30 minutes. It was more important to the person to play and chat on their cell phone, which was clearly visible just a few meters from us. Last but not least, a new waitress came (the first one probably didn't want to come to us anymore, ok, I would probably avoid it). They then apologized and offered a schnapps to make up for it. What could have been done better: If there is a lot going on, I let my guests know straight away and don't make them wait as ordered and not picked up. If the waiting time is longer, I offer something in between, bread or something like that (some bread was put out at the very beginning, but sorry for 7, I put out more than 6.7 slices of baguette) a schnapps or something similar, give that to the guest Feeling like you haven't been forgotten. And above all, if something like that happens to the steak after such a long wait, I don't argue with the guest - he could have said something and then it will be fried the way you want. Well, in conclusion, if you have to apologize to your friends for recommending the place, you don't have to say much more, we won't be coming back.

Phenomenal! Truly the best schnitzel I've ever eaten! Steak was as requested, to the point & super tasty! A very attentive & friendly service! Highly recommended!

Der Besuch im Kuhlinaria, der Dritte notabene, dürfte der Letzte gewesen sein. Die Karte nach ca. 15 Minuten, die Bestellaufnahme nach einer halben Stunde. Die Vorspeisen 45 Min nach der Bestellung....das geht nicht. Es sind noch ein paar andere Ungereimtheiten gewesen, aber das würde den Rahmen hier sprengen. Was auf dem Teller war, war frisch und gut zubereitet. Lecker. Das Lokal schafft sich ab, es wäre grundsätzlich gut, tolles Interieur, gute Küche, aber man geht raus und fragt sich, weshalb man so lange auf jede Bestellung warten musste. An den anderen Tischen dasselbe. Wir gehen nicht mehr. Eigentlich schade.

Der Service war nett und super freundlich, aber leider nicht besonders aufmerksam. Getränkebestellung wurde erst nach 20 Minuten aufgenommen, danach kamen die Speisekarten. Irritierend war, dass die Preise nicht in Zahlen, sondern in Worten ausgeschrieben in der Karte standen. Getränke kamen dann auch nicht so schnell. Erst danach wurde die Essensbestellung aufgenommen. Bis das Essen kam, dauerte es auch nochmal 30 Minuten. Zum Essen kann man sagen, es sah schön aus und war reichlich. Leider wurde an Gewürzen gespart. Dies empfanden wir alle so (10 Personen). Salz und Pfeffer standen aber in großen Gewürzmühlen auf dem Tisch. Als die Gläser dann leer waren, fragte der Service nicht, ob wir noch etwas trinken möchten. Knapp 45 Minuten saßen wir auf dem Trockenen, bis wir selbst bestellten. Man hatte etwas den Eindruck, das Personal würde keinen Umsatz machen wollen. Die Getränkekarte war auf Auskunft der Besitzerin nicht aktuell. Die erfuhren wir, als wir nach einem Absacker fragten. Natürlich gab es welche, diese musste man aber erst erfragen. (Gibt Schlimmeres) Wie gesagt, Personal war super lieb, aber der Service könnte aufmerksamer sein. Habe diese Kritik nämlich schon öfter gelesen u. offensichtlich ändert sich da seit Monaten nichts.

Where are we for dinner? Yes in the Kuhlinaria in Cuxhaven 👌🥰😋 Very juicy and delicious schnitzel, it was difficult to choose because the menu offers many delicious variants to please the palate, we really liked the selection we made, next time we'll have steak 😉👌😋

Super great little restaurant, definitely recommended

One of the BEST schnitzels I have ever enjoyed. Fresh, crispy, juicy and flat as it should be. I had the Schnitzel Cuxe and my husband Mediterranean. We'll be back 🤩

Super nice staff and delicious food

A pepper sauce as it should be, the steaks fried to perfection. The schnitzel in XXL format. A great steakhouse in Cuxhaven 👍👌 we personally lack a wardrobe when it comes to the ambience..

The food here is really great! Mega tasty, large selection, very nice & polite service, cozy atmosphere. We can only recommend it and would be happy to come back :-)

This is the third time we have been to this restaurant and all I can say is high quality, nice service. If you're in Cuxhaven, you can't pass by here.

If you find yourself in Cuxhaven in Grimmershörn and want a great schnitzel or a steak then definitely visit Kuhlinaria!! At the flood gate, passage to the water shipping office just before the bascule bridge. I can only recommend it

Sehr netter kompetenter Service Speisen sehr gut Preis Leistung passt Immer wieder gerne Gemütlich eingerichtetes Lokal

Very tasty and plentiful food. Well prepared. Price performance very good 👍

The food was okay. The service could have been a little less annoying. The idea of ​​prices on the menu is just plain wrong.

Super nice service. The food came to the table quickly and hot. Delicious!!!

Can be recommended to everyone...

Very good rump steak, good service. With great attention to detail. Gladly again

The food is really great, the meat is of great quality, the fries were a bit salty but good, tasty portions. The service started off very unfriendly right from the start. The ordered table was half-heartedly pointed to without a word. The service was alone and overwhelmed given the full restaurant. Everyone around us received a greeting from the kitchen, but we didn't. The majority of the customers seemed to be familiar because as soon as someone came in the gentleman came out of the kitchen and greeted everyone. Everyone around us was asked for drinks, but we weren't. When we wanted to pay I was looked at ten times but always ignored. There was still a tip, which wasn't much because the service wasn't really great. The waitress seemed visibly annoyed and didn't even wish us a nice evening or anything else. Great food, unfortunately poor service.

Vegetarians are at a loss here, there are far too few options and very inflexible when you ask the staff about alternatives. Waiting times are not possible at all, you wait almost 2 hours for the food! No go! Food tastes great, A1. Really big praise there. But the service, friendliness and, above all, the waiting times need to be worked on.

Great food at a reasonable price, but watch your bill, you might find an “extra portion”! Complaint was regretted and should be corrected next time; Unfortunately it was forgotten again on the bill and when it was mentioned again, 1 schnapps was offered (for 3 guests). We “ordered” 3 and received one full and two half-full glasses; how embarrassing! The waitress on the first visit also forgot drinks several times and set dirty cutlery. However, both waitresses were friendly and polite.

Nice restaurant and tasty food. The owners were also the ones who welcomed and served us. All in all, a solid, charming restaurant. However, there are two main points of criticism 1. The sauces were thin as water, tasty but not thick 2. The grill plate came at a hefty price of around 25 euros, which would be fine if you were full. Dear owners, it really should have been a little more for such an amount. Overall, you can't do anything wrong by stopping there, but personally I would prefer an alternative if you have a big appetite.

Super tasty, highly recommended the food

Very nice and attentive service. Very good quality food. Dogs are welcome!!!

Great food, good service and good price 👍👍👍

Good food with nice service. The owners are very hard working. We sat in the winter garden and it was a bit of a strange atmosphere. Felt like being at home in the dining room only with lots of strangers. The chairs are very worn and the decoration is neglected (e.g. the lamps don't work on any of the tables).

A very friendly welcome. Reservation is definitely recommended. A very good menu. Service very attentive and nice. The food was excellent, really prepared with love and fresh. Great balsamic vinegar.

A full 5🌟everything was great. Not a long wait, the service was very nice and very friendly. I therefore cannot understand various reviews. 🤔 When we are in Cuxhaven we would love to come back.

Very tasty and also very good service!

Very very tasty!! Top service!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Alles wie es sein soll.... Das nenne ich essen gehen...mega Das kann sich 90 % der restlichen restaurantbesitzer mal anschauen wie es funktionieren kann....echt Super sind jetzt 5mal zum Essen gekommen...und glücklich gegangen

Great food. Very good in quality and quantity Nice service in a great location. Ambience adapted to the food on the menu.

There are often frozen goods on offer there. Such as the pancakes or the sandwich ice cream.

The food tasted good, but we waited an hour for the starter alone and another 40 more went by before we had the food, while the people at the next table, who came 20 minutes after us, had already had their food long ago.

We were here for the 5th time in 4 years and are absolutely thrilled with the food and service. Just great!

Very good food at reasonable prices in a cozy atmosphere. The service was friendly and attentive.

Just great! I have never eaten such a perfect schnitzel! Great restaurant with super friendly service! Keep it up!

We recommend. Great food, super friendly and attentive staff.

It's just great how this experienced waitress ran the place. Always have a suitable saying on it. The food came very quickly and tasted good. It's just a shame that there was almost no fish on Monday. A reservation is recommended.

Very good offer. Excellent dishes. Very nice staff.

Slowest service ever. Sauce tastes precisely Like they came from a can. Unfriendly staff….more make up than estee lauder

If the restaurant were in our home, I would become a regular. Top quality, super friendly service at reasonable prices!

Great place, really great!!! Kind, funny and fresh service as well as good understanding for your needs. Came at closing time, and restaurant was filled... Even so, They took us in, 3 grown men, and we had the best dinner ever. Food was perfect, the service was in top, and the whole atmosphere was perfect as well. Everybody cared for all, and it was an eye opener for me regarding restsurants in Germany, as this was tje first time i tried something like this in all Germany. Travelled thwre for 30 years +!!! Absolutely recommendable, quality food and service and really good prices. This is a Totally "MUST Go" if you are in cuxhaven and looking for a good meal and desert!

We were there yesterday and had reserved a table. It all worked out great. The service was very nice and while we waited there was bread with olive oil and salt, which was very tasty. The restaurant wasn't completely full, there were still tables available, but we waited 45 minutes for our food. That was really tasty but I wonder how long you wait when the restaurant is full.🤷🏼‍♀️

Super delicious food and super lovely staff!

Food very very tasty. I can only recommend it. Unfortunately the waiting times were a bit long.

Hello! Were here for the first time. The reception alone was really friendly. The restaurant's facilities are a dream. Ate a rump steak with side salad. The steak was tender and super tasty. Price was surprisingly cheap. Steak and a Jever mushroom are a special treat. Would love to come back.

The food was great, but unfortunately the service was not at all. We arrived outside (near the harbor and were hungry) , and wanted to sit at a free and unreserved table. The older waitress then told us in an unfriendly manner that we should go in first and wait at the counter because all the tables were reserved. When I said that there was no sign on the table and so we wanted to sit down, the lady replied that there were probably just not enough signs (but here too, the sound makes the music). When we arrived inside (6 p.m.) she asked if we would be gone by 7:15 p.m. I said that we had just arrived and that I didn't know how long it would take for the food to be served. She then told us that we could sit outside at the last table on the edge (of the street). You should have left straight away, but we took a seat there. While we waited for our food, we were able to watch other guests arrive and simply sit down, where nothing was said because there were several of them. When our food came, which was really very good, the waitress asked if we liked it, which was again positive. After I paid and gave a tip despite the bad first impression, she said again that they were always full and so you should call ahead. We are not from Cuxhaven and only went on holiday there. Hospitality looks different.

nice place with perfect service and very good food

Good morning. We ate outside. Biker schnitzel with potato wedges... Great 😋. Everything freshly prepared. Super nice service and reasonable prices. Full marks...

Great food, very tasty 🤤 Great dishes for children too, great price.

Food tasted good But the waiting time of over 1.5 hours is not possible at all. And unfortunately there was no apology or - It could take a little longer today, Just the statement Everything is made fresh, hence the waiting time.

Been there for the second time now, the food was good, the steak was grilled perfectly. Unfortunately, the waiting time was a catastrophe, that's really unacceptable, waiting 120 minutes for a meal is simply a no-go, especially the restaurant wasn't completely full. Unfortunately there was no compensation or apology. The men's toilet was a mess, the water was on the floor, the pipe from the toilet was also gone and needed to be completely renovated. Unfortunately I will avoid the restaurant in the future. Shame about the food.

+ delicious food + Friendly and child-friendly service despite the restaurant being full The restaurant is busy, you should make a reservation.

The schnitzel is good, the portion is also decent & the price is okay for a tourist resort. The location and ambience are beautifully done and seem very inviting. Unfortunately, there was an extremely bad atmosphere in the shop as everyone waited well over an hour for their food. We waited 1 hour & 20 minutes. Other guests really messed around. That was very unpleasant. If you can't make it on one day due to e.g. understaffing, simply refuse guests. If it takes longer, just keep it up to date and offer free drinks. That would make everything better.

After 1 hour the salad came, after 1 hour 45 we left. Sham arguments and no excuse - on the contrary - it was impossible to wait 1 hour for the food!

One of our favorite places when it comes to schnitzel. Thinly pounded and crispy in the pan, with in-house homemade fries - super tasty....and the original Wiener Schnitzel is my absolute highlight for me - generally very, very fine meat the price/performance ratio is great. Modernly furnished and yet cozy, you can stay a while after your meal for an espresso or a cappuccino. It was a pleasure

We had to wait over 40 minutes for our food. The tagliatelle with the sliced ​​meat was a disaster. The sauce had a terrible taste and didn't go well with the other ingredients in the dish: spinach and tomatoes. We cannot recommend this dish under any circumstances. The schnitzel was ok.

The best food I have ever eaten in a restaurant. The atmosphere is super nice and cozy and the service is top notch. We will come back.

As soon as we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and quickly shown to our previously reserved table. The drink order was quickly taken and before we ordered our dishes, we already had them. Since the restaurant was very busy, it only took a little longer until we received our dishes. The service did everything to make us feel comfortable. The schnitzels were very large and tasted excellent. Plus the sweet potatoes... just perfect. We'll definitely be back. ☆☆☆☆☆

I had dinner here today with my colleague. We waited 1.5 hours for the food and were almost ready to leave. The food didn't taste that good either. We won't eat there again.

If you like schnitzel, this is the place for you. My schnitzels were always super tasty. Addition 08/02/24 Like every year on our Cuxi vacation, Kuhlinara is an absolute must, but this time I was very disappointed. There was no more greeting from the kitchen (it was always delicious pepperoni baquette with oil). Unfortunately, my "baked" Mediterranean schnitzel didn't have much to do with being gratinated and it didn't taste like anything. The specially ordered side salad just crackled in the mouth, it must have been washed quickly. Has the owner changed? There is also new staff... Compare the pictures of the same meal this year and last year.

Great leggaaaaa... we'll be back...

You can eat very tasty food there and they have a generous menu. In terms of price, I would say it's a little more expensive, but it didn't really blow me away.

The tables outside are on a street. My schnitzel was large but extremely thin.

Wonderful cuisine, fresh and aromatic, very well done.

We have been to Kuhlinaria several times. So far everything has always been good. However, something went wrong during our visit today. Half of the rump steak I ordered consisted of fat and the degree of doneness was not at all satisfactory. Medium is medium and not rare. The real highlight, however, was the fried fly under my son's schnitzel. A new meal was brought, but nothing else was offered to make amends. No discount, no drink, just nothing. I think it's a shame because we always enjoyed going to Kuhlinaria. By the way, one also has to complain about the condition of the hygienic facilities. A urinal may or may not be defective for 3 weeks. And the cleanliness can also be improved. Yes, I know, it now sounds like: something went wrong once and immediately everything is bad. But it's more the case that so far we've overlooked a lot of other things because of the good food.

Very good food and lovely service. Thank you 🥰

The food was delicious and the staff was also super friendly and helpful. We ordered 2 different versions of schnitzel and both were great 👌. One came with croquettes and the other with fried potatoes. The best schnitzel in the district that me and my partner have eaten so far. So really recommended. We have lived in Cuxhaven all our lives and unfortunately it was the first time there 🙈 But now again and again.

Nice but long-lasting service. Food so well for the price

Great schnitzels, never had a better Cordon Bleu.👍

The Kuhlinaria is beautifully decorated on the inside and looks warm. The staff was super friendly, which I would like to explicitly mention here. The drinks came quickly, the food took a long time, although it was relatively busy. As a result, you have to take some time with you when there is a lot of activity. The wait is worth it: the portions are large and everything tastes delicious. Accordingly, the price-performance ratio is also good. Again any time.

Simply great...an absolute must...surf and tour.

After a small traffic jam in the kitchen, the wait was worth it, the wait was very, very tasty and the Jägerschnitzel was really super big and very tasty. I can only recommend. Service was super nice, even if it was busy. I'm already looking forward to next time, hopefully again with a traffic jam in the kitchen.

Das Essen war gut, das Personal zwar bemüht , aber unqualifiziert und überfordert. Es wäre schön gewesen, wenn die Bestellung so umgesetzt worden wäre, wie aufgegeben. Trotz (kurzfristiger) telefonischer Reservierung mussten wir ca. 20 Minuten warten. Weitere 30 Minuten haben wir am Tisch gesessen, ohne dass eine Bedienung erfolgte. Erst danach Konnten Getränke bestellt werden und wurden die Speisekarten gereicht.

The restaurant is highly recommended for schnitzel. Price-performance ratio is very good and not overpriced. Spontaneously going out for a meal there is always possible when the weather is good and there are seats available outside. Reservations are recommended for the interior. The service (gorgeous blonde woman) was great. The next visit there won't be long in coming.

The best restaurant in all of Cuxhaven. Here you will be welcomed by really super friendly service🤩🤩. The food itself is really top class, which probably means that the cuisine is also top notch. We recommend. We will be back

First of all: There were two of us without a reservation and we got the last free table. Reservation in advance is recommended. The food was very tasty. Steaks are grilled to perfection, i.e. medium is delicate pink. The potato chips are a great alternative to the usual fries. Everything is very nicely and appetizingly prepared. And the staff is very friendly and attentive. We will be very happy to come back.

Best schnitzel and best steak! Simply great food

Unfortunately, on a Saturday when it was at full capacity, there was only one service and it was new.
