Ristorante Zum Paradies in Gelnhausen

Great terrace with a great view 👌😄

We were there today with 14 people, including three children – everything was absolutely perfect. The service was prompt without being intrusive, and when the food arrived, we were served to four people. When a thunderstorm started, the ladies with their shoulders off were given blankets. You won't find service like this anywhere. A solid A+.

Beautiful location with a fantastic view above Gelnhausen. Easy to find with navigation. Outside at the edge of the forest. Very large, therefore slightly stripped card. Good in pizza, lasagna, pasta. No specialties like Saltimbocca or Vitello Tonnato. All in all good. Large portions. Leftovers are packed up. Thank you for that. Despite the busy atmosphere, friendly and quick. Good and appealing for a destination. Dessert was disappointing, unfortunately. Please revise the tiramisu recipe. Classic only with mascarpone please. Filled chocolate cake was a muffin with chocolate sauce on top. Change the description and it will be fine.

I always enjoy eating here. Great view of the Kinzig Valley, good food, and friendly service.

Great restaurant with a beautiful view and select, high-quality food. Delicious. Great selection of drinks, including homemade lemonades. Highly recommended.

They're not Italian! It's okay, but nothing special! Only recommended for the view!

We visited this lovely place today at the invitation of friends. I think the service staff does a fantastic job in every respect, and the food is very good. Highly recommended. Lovely seating inside and outside for dining. We'd love to come back.

Very good restaurant with a great view over the Kinzig valley

Great food, excellent staff, always happy to come back 🤗

Very, very tasty and the view is amazing

Great food. Great view. Always happy to come back. Very good staff.

The food was very good, the staff was attentive and very friendly. The view was fantastic. I'd happily go back again.

Very tasty food and a magnificent view

Yes, everything's fine! Enjoy a great view and good food!

Great restaurant! The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was simply beautiful. I highly recommend it!

The service in the restaurant is really good: friendly and attentive. The fantastic view is particularly noteworthy—a place where you'll want to sit a little longer and enjoy the view. However, the whole thing comes at a price. Around €20 per person gets you a drink and a meal, which is okay for the quality, but certainly not cheap. If you value a good atmosphere and friendly service and are willing to pay a little more for that, this is the place for you.

Whenever we're nearby, we like to go there because of the great view. The food is good, but I don't like a lot of Parmesan cheese on the dishes.

Beautiful view, very good southern Italian food. Very friendly.

One of the best restaurants in our area, where service is still done with passion. Italian cuisine at its finest.

The service was truly exemplary and very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, they served pre-made sauce, which you could clearly taste and smell. It's a shame that they hardly ever cook anything fresh anymore. Hence fewer stars.

An excellent restaurant with very abundant and delicious food and a beautiful view of Frankfurt.

Very nice place. Great view. We only had a drink.

A very nice restaurant. Plenty of space with a lovely terrace and a great view. All the staff are very friendly, courteous, and attentive—but not intrusive! The food is delicious. The value for money is very good. Highly recommended

An absolute insider tip! This Italian restaurant on the hill above Gelnhausen not only offers excellent food at great value for money, but also breathtaking views over the Main-Kinzig Valley. The terrace is beautifully situated, ideal for a relaxing break. The staff are extremely friendly and attentive – you feel completely at home. We'll definitely be back!

My wife and I went there for lunch. We had reserved a table. It only took a short time for us to get the menus and be asked for our drinks. It didn't take forever for the food to arrive either. The food itself was truly excellent. The ambiance is pleasant and the atmosphere quite tranquil. The terrace offers a wonderful view of the Kinzig Valley.

The location in the middle of the forest & the view over the Kinzigtal - simply fantastic... In the early 80s there was a beer garden with wooden folding chairs where there was Äppler & Handkäse... What became of it: A blast... Everyone should see for themselves!

Nice staff, good service and delicious food. All in all we were completely satisfied, hence 5 full stars.

As always, WORLD CLASS... our regular restaurant is and always will be nice to have you... THANK YOU for the great birthday surprise!

The service didn't serve us for the first 15 to 20 minutes. After that it went. Food ordered and ready and served in record time.

Absolutely excellent. Food, ambience, service and view are excellent

Very diverse offering. Prices are justified. The food is very tasty and is appetizingly draped and served on the plates.

Beste Pasta , und eine tolles Team !! Freundlich und immer zuvorkommend 🌞 Wir lieben Dieses Restaurant Es ist wirklich paradiesisch und einen Ausflug wert.

Good food with a great view and nice staff, we go there again and again.

Beautiful excursion restaurant with a breathtaking view over the Kinzigtal. It's just unique in the region. The food is very good in terms of price/performance ratio. Unfortunately, the food has changed little to nothing in recent years. They rely on ratings, which is a shame because Mediterranean cuisine has more to offer. However, you can't go wrong if you stop by there. The service and the friendliness with which you are welcomed is very good. The various events with dinner and entertainment are also recommended.

Good food, super nice staff, great view of the Kinzigtal... Highly recommended!!

If you want to enjoy the sun and peace, this is the right place for you. The large terrace invites you to linger and the service is very nice. The pizza tastes great. Unfortunately I didn't really like the truffle pasta. They were too greasy and very dry at the same time. I would love to come back for another dish!

Nice restaurant. Location, view, service and food are very good. One star deducted because the restaurant is harder to reach (narrow streets up a hill, critical with oncoming traffic). This has nothing to do with the restaurant per se, but it still had to be said.

Wonderful view, good food, Italian and German cuisine, good service, always happy to come here. Clean and upscale restaurant. Update July 2024 I've been to paradise for a long time and ordered Pizza Diavolo again, my favorite pizza. Great taste and well topped. Staff is friendly and quick. Everything is great and always happy. And the view is always great. August Went to paradise again with wonderful weather and a great view, this time we ate the “Paradise” pizza, it was super tasty, simply the best pizza far and wide. Update October - Today I made a salad with chicken breast, super tasty. Great weather and view. Update 03/2025 Ate another Pizza Diavolo in great weather. Simply outstanding. That's why I like to drive the 75 km.

Great location and very good food

Courteous service, good food, beautiful view.

I'm incredibly excited. The view is fantastic, the staff very quick and friendly and the food! Hammer! It also happened very quickly.

Highly recommended, great view, great restaurant. Food was very tasty, service was good. Come again

Very nice restaurant, very tasty food and very nice staff. We'll be back

Very pumped prices and very little choice on Valentine's Day! Staff was also a bit annoying, asking 5 times in 3 minutes if we were ready... I had the feeling they wanted us to leave quickly. Well 40€ for a portion of pasta and schnitzel without salad... Never again

We wanted to have a nice dinner with my boyfriend on Valentine's Day. They made a special Valentine's Day menu where there were simply 10 main courses and perhaps 5 starters. I've had stomach surgery and I'll never be able to eat a normal portion. Wanted to eat a salad. There was nothing on this menu, no salad, no soup. It was a pasta dish. And a pizza that was the choice and 4-5 different meat dishes with side dishes but unfortunately that's not an option for me. I find that extremely embarrassing from a restaurant. The glass pane was full of stains where I could enjoy a view of the garden chairs that were stacked on top of each other... Then comes the dot on the i. I have to take a break between dinner and 5-6 waiters in 10 minutes asked 5 times, each of them asking me that I'm done now, should I pack up? no, just a break? One took the plates from my friend and he just took a break with me. Unprofessional. Dirty.

We celebrated our baptism there and it was really beautiful. (I added images on Google) A great atmosphere, super delicious food that came almost at the same time for 25 people and the staff was also super nice. So always very, very happy.

We got a table even on Sunday without a reservation and the food was very tasty and the staff were quick and friendly as always. Always my pleasure

Very nice staff, cozy decor and good food.

A special place. Certainly even more beautiful in summer when you have a great overview of the Kinzigtal from the mountain. Good selection of food, nice service and attentive!

We love going here, for example it's a dream to go there on Christmas Eve. You feel incredibly comfortable. The food tastes very tasty and the atmosphere is just great. For the next few years, this restaurant will be our save place on Christmas Eve.

Nice view, service always nice, food well... I was there a year ago and it was better there.

I regularly eat here with my customers for work. Mostly at lunchtime it's not too crowded but always busy. The waiters are attentive and the food comes quickly. The large appetizer platters are very popular with my customers. We like to come here every few weeks.

Really liked it, I recommend this restaurant. Everything's great 👍

First of all - based on the location with the view over the Kinzigtal alone, one should rate it better, but after our experience yesterday I unfortunately have to make deductions here. We had an express reservation confirmation (by email and telephone) for Boxing Day at 1 p.m. When we arrived they suddenly said we were too early, we were booked in at 1:30 p.m. and the previous guests were still at the table. We (4 adults, 3 teenagers and 1 baby) had to wait in front of the counter at used tables, there was no service to bridge the waiting time. Our table was in the middle of the next room, quite cramped and almost unbearably loud. Despite a number of wait staff, we had to wait almost 30 minutes for drinks and another hour for food. Unfortunately, the food was pretty bland, especially the pasta lacked salt. Yes, it was a holiday, but if you let the service and food suffer because of it, you have to reduce the number of reservations. We can certainly imagine visiting again in the summer to eat pizza on the terrace, but not on a public holiday.

Very tasty food and friendly service

Das Paradies war mal bekannt für solide italienische Küche. Aber leider war es diesmal nix. Die Pasta war gruselig. Überkocht in ungesalzenem Wasser. Zumindest schmeckten sie so. Auch die Saucen waren geschmacksarm. Die Sterne gibt für den Service und den Ausblick.

🇩🇪 In my opinion the best schnitzel in Gelnhausen and the surrounding area 💪. Other things are also delicious: pizza, pasta, soups, noodles, everything is generally very tasty. The interior design of the restaurant is also very positive, the view from the garden 💪 It's really worth coming here. Despite the fact that there are many places available, I would advise you to reserve a place. Top service always happy to visit. I recommend 💪 🇬🇧 in my opinion the best “Schnitzel” in Gelnhausen and the surrounding area 💪. Although other things are also tasty: pizza, pasta, soups, noodles, generally all very tasty. the interior of the restaurant is also very positive to that the view from the garden 💪 It's really worth coming here. However, despite the fact that there are a lot of places available, I would advise you to book a place. Top service always happy to visit again. I recommend 💪 🇵🇱 good morning in Gelnhausen and ok 💪. Chociaż inne rzeczy też smaczne: pizza, pasta, zupy,makaron generalnie wszystko bardzo smaaczne. wystroj restauracji też bardzo pozytywny do tego ten widok z ogrodu 💪 Naprawdę wasto dotaj przyjść. Every time you want to have a good time, you can do it again. Obsługa top zawsze chętnie ponownie. polecam 💪

The location high on the mountain with a view of the Kinzigtal is unsurpassed.

Very good food with very pleasant service.

Das ist kein Italiener und auch das Essen kann man nicht als italienische Küche bezeichnen. Wer trotzdem gerne hier Essen gehen möchte. Sollte sich Pommes oder etwas Frittiertes bestellen.

The food is very tasty, but the service can be improved, it's a shame the location has potential

The view is simply beautiful. Food was very good despite our celebration, the food came very quickly with so many people

Very tasty food with many different loving dishes. My personal highlight is the spaghetti tossed in a parmesan loaf with black truffles. The boss is usually present and very friendly, the staff is very service-oriented and accommodating. In summer there is a huge, beautiful, partially covered outdoor area. The monthly(?) dinner theater also sounds interesting. But we've never been there before. We come here for dinner very often and are almost never disappointed! Very child-friendly, prices slightly high, but appropriate for the excellent food!

The food is really very good, all dishes can be recommended! It also fills you up well. The only problem is when there is a lot going on and the parking lot is full, then you have to search.

Hello, it's been a long time since I went out to eat again, but due to Corona, nothing was really possible. So reserve a table two days in advance and head to paradise, the reputation is pretty good, or rather it was!?! I've rarely seen something so careless, there was no table reservation, so the search for a free table began, despite the reservation... Outrageous! The waiter slapped the rather unspectacular menu on the table and upside down, which is not what I describe as “attentive” and “great service”. However, the food was better! The noodles tasted almost the same even though we ordered completely different dishes. If you compare service and taste to the price, it's a pharmacy. I really imagine paradise differently!

The food was very tasty! Starter pumpkin soup and bruschetta And two main courses were all very tasty and there was nothing to complain about. Two Cola and Aperol spritz as well as cappuccino 66 euros included. Price performance absolutely top

The name of the restaurant actually says it all because as a guest you actually feel like you are in paradise. The selection of excellent dishes is large and the quality is simply outstanding. In addition, the unique ambience with the fascinating view, i.e. the view over the Kinzigtal, creates the best atmosphere. The waiters are very on the ball and extremely friendly and helpful if, for example. B. has questions about certain dishes. Conclusion: For a restaurant with this fantastic location up on the mountain in Gelnhausen, the prices are moderate and the quality is still absolutely first-class. It couldn't be better or tastier! Eating there is a wonderful experience for all the senses. Or as an Italian would say: Solo meraviglioso!

Top food, great ambience, great view 👍👍👍

Great ambience, very good cuisine and above all great service. Only recommended 👍

Enjoy a beautiful view over Gelnhausen and Gründau while enjoying good food. Top conditions...

Great restaurant with authentic Italian cuisine.

Delicious food, super nice team and absolutely fantastic view. You feel absolutely in paradise 😍👍🏼

Beautiful restaurant. Nice staff. Mega view.

We celebrated my father's 90th birthday and it was great again in "Paradise". All 16 guests received their food at the same time and were very satisfied with it. The staff was very pleasant and all guests aged 6 to 90 felt very comfortable. We'll see each other again when my grandson starts school. I'm looking forward to.

Thanks for your reply. I'm sorry if my feedback was misunderstood. As a restaurateur myself, I know how important honest and constructive feedback is. Unfortunately, I really didn't like the food during my visit - from the salad to the pasta, it didn't live up to my expectations. The chanterelles in particular were tasteless, and the shrimp were overcooked and had hardly any flavor. In addition, the dish as a whole tasted far too strongly of white wine. I am not giving this feedback as a competitor, but as a guest who values ​​quality and taste. We are also located in different cities, so there is no direct competition. If you still feel that my feedback is inappropriate, please feel free to report it. I wish you continued success.

Who would have thought that when I visit the restaurant I would not only get a delicious pizza, but also a free bike cracking session? After I had returned to my bike, refreshed and satisfied after a hearty meal, I discovered that my lock was not working. No chance of opening the thing. But salvation came from an unexpected direction. Within seconds, not one, not two, but **three** waiters had removed their aprons and gathered around my bike as if they had been training for years for a moment like this. With a mixture of improvisation and a hammer and pliers, they set to work as if it were a Michelin star for bike cracking. After what felt like two minutes the lock was open. I stood there speechless - not only because my bike was ready to ride again, but also because I was now convinced that these guys clearly have a second source of income as lockpicks in addition to their waiting skills ;-) Conclusion: Great food, service... creative! So if you want to eat really well and also need help with your bike lock - "Paradise" is the place to be. We'd love to come back - thank you very much!

Was invited to a party in Paradise. The waiters and the boss were very friendly and attentive. The food was very tasty.

Definitely go! A wonderful experience! EVERYTHING perfect! A huge THANK YOU and a huge compliment to the great team with an unforgettable atmosphere. Kind regards, Karin Seipel-Welzenbach

Good food, great service, reasonable prices. Nice view of the Kinzigtal. Always happy again.

Great ambience, great service, super fast despite the full house. Always happy to get value for money.

The food wasn't bad but unfortunately it wasn't convincing either. Garlic bread way too dry. And the pasta with chanterelles and shrimp was a bit bland. Only the grilled mozzarella was a hit. Because of the nice staff and the great ambience we will give it another chance. Maybe the rest can keep up next night.

The view is clearly indescribably beautiful. The taste of the food was good, but some of it was very dry. It was also delivered quite quickly. Subsequent drink orders were a bit slow. To be honest, it got pretty busy shortly after we arrived and the staff had a lot to do. So the service was very good.

Food standard, ambience very nice because of the view.

Our food was very tasty! We ordered number 70, ricotta-spinach tortelloni in a zucchini-saffron sauce - they were really extremely good. Big praise! The service was also excellent, very attentive and extremely friendly. The view was worth highlighting. The prices are also a bit higher, and the vegetarian selection is unfortunately very limited. On Friday afternoon around 12 it was very quiet, only one cat complained a lot :D All in all an excellent stay.

At first glance a mess of staff. The food and the price-performance ratio is super good. View over the Kinzigtal with a beautiful terrace.

Great food, very friendly and the view is stunning

We can't say anything about the food, but it looked good to the neighbors. But we didn't want to risk it anymore after going to the toilet. Since we always wash our hands beforehand, we gradually went to the toilets and only ordered drinks in advance. In my eyes, the toilet was an “experience of horror”. The heater next to me is full of dust, urine and visually sticky substances, so I probably don't need to bother with the toilet itself. No soap and the guests either have to act like animals within a very short time and/or no one checks for hours, but the sink was wet, dirty, germy up to the mirror and the soap dispenser was unscrewed and lying in a colored (makeup?) puddle. Even the door handles were sticky. I sincerely hope that this restaurant, which is actually so beautifully located, gets their hygiene under control very quickly. Truly well-intentioned from the heart. But I was disgusted. 3 stars for the nice staff and the location.

Super delicious pizza and super nice staff! Worth a visit :)

As always, it was sensationally delicious, fresh and sumptuous. The service was great and very friendly. We always enjoy coming there +++++and dogs are welcome.

Hello, me and my wife are regular guests for what feels like 20 years. We have also had a few private celebrations at Ristorante Paradies. The restaurant, in a kind of winter garden with an opening window front, has a nice atmosphere. The large covered terrace with its distant view over the Kinzigtal is phenomenal. The food is of high quality, as you would expect for an upscale Italian restaurant. The landlord is great and welcomes all of his guests even when there is a lot going on. Lots of staff in the Servive, all friendly, fast and attentive. The prices reflect the slightly higher demands but are not exaggerated. If you want to have a nice evening with good food and drinks and enjoy the great view, this is the right place for you. Highly recommended. Detlef Göddel 64 years old.

Great food, great service and lovely ambience. We are always happy to come to you.

Nice restaurant with a great view. We will come back. Service and food was good

Fantastic view from the mountain of the Rhine-Main region. The staff is extremely friendly and attentive. The preparation of the food was always quick, loving and fresh. Everything is very tasty: whether salad, bruscetta, pasta, pizza, steaks, fish or seasonal. I've been here many times: a true paradise! Thanks Kawa!

The food was super tasty The service is on point and very friendly. You have a wonderful view and a great ambience. We had bruschetta as a starter, with salad. Splendid. For the main course I had a vegetarian pizza and it was very good. The dough and the topping were delicious. For dessert we had fantastic pana cotta. The resteraunt is worth every visit.

The food was delicious, the view of the valley is sensational, the service is good. Dasokal is beautifully situated in the countryside and the menu is varied.

Great food, beautiful view and friendly service. Highly recommended!

We were here for the first time today. I'm really more than positively surprised. The food was delicious, the portions were more than generous. There was nothing wrong with the price and the service was friendly and accommodating. The ambience is simply fantastic. Highly recommended and definitely worth a short trip from Hanau again in the future.

We're not from the area and came here spontaneously and it was a hit! The food was really very good and the service was quick and very friendly. The atmosphere is cozy and from the terrace you have a great view over the valley. If we come to the area again we will eat here again!

Great location, great service, great food. Gladly again at any time. 👍

Great view, good food, good service
