Rose am Dom in Aachen

The service was very rude. After ordering, they said, "The table is reserved." They simply left cards on the table without greeting me. Drinks were simply placed on the table without a sound. When paying, I had to go to the cashier and wait while the waiter cleaned the table. All the other customers paid at the table. I don't understand why it was different for me. The food is okay. If you look at old reviews, you notice they repeatedly behave so rudely with customers. There are enough customers, so they won't change. I've also noticed that they cold-bloodedly send customers away if they don't like something. It's usually about the table. I'm surprised that they do this in a restaurant industry and at such a tourist spot. I've even seen it twice; people feel insulted.

Mediocre food and service in a lovely setting

The service was friendly and quick, and the starter was good. However, the risotte was lacking salt and pepper, as was the meat. The mushrooms were also too coarsely chopped for my liking.

Extremely understaffed. Waited 40 minutes for a server to come to the table. Food also 60 minutes after that. Don't order mayo or ketchup because it's not included and they charge €2 a tiny cup. So we paid 4 euros for a tiny bit of sauce, felt very scammy. Quality of the food itself was great thankfully. Waiter didn't give us change at the end and continued on working, involuntary tip. Wouldn't come here again.

Great restaurant with a good selection. Unfortunately, I can only give the service 3 stars (5 for service 1, 0 for service 2) because the waiter was very rude. He took an order incorrectly and then got upset and tried to blame the waiter. It was hot, of course, and all the tables were occupied. Nevertheless, even in such a stressful situation, you shouldn't lose your temper.

The food is delicious🤩 The service is perfect and very friendly. I highly recommend it❤️ We will definitely be back on our next visit to Aachen.

Amazing restaurant in quiet place with delicious food. Highly recommended to visit.

Nice dinner! German specialty, as well as salads, pasta 😀

The food is wonderful, simply heavenly... I recommend it with all my heart.

An Italian restaurant in a prime location with excellent food. Not only is the food high quality, but the portion sizes are also very reasonable for the price.

Anyone who can afford to turn away customers who just want a drink at 4:45 p.m. in a bar that is very lightly staffed has probably succeeded, but will have to manage without me in the future.

The food... starter... main course... dessert... was simply wonderful... the boiled beef was delicious with a perfect horseradish sauce... many thanks to the kitchen and the super-friendly service. We'll definitely be back soon...

Beautiful location, but what a difference the staff can make. And in this case, a very negative difference. I've rarely encountered such unfriendly and disinterested service. Dramatic.

We ate very well. Delicious pasta and two very good fish dishes. The service was a little slow. They have two terraces, so we decided to go to the dining room because it was very cool.

We ate in yesterday around 4:30 PM. The service was, in a word, terrible from start to finish. We sat opposite the bar, and they could clearly see we were ready to take our order. However, they repeatedly walked past us disinterestedly. The food was mediocre for the price. We finished our main course and waited for the table to be cleared. Unfortunately, this was another missed opportunity... waiting and waiting... after coffee, we walked to the cash register so we could leave quickly. Too bad, the location is great, the service is poor, and the food is mediocre.

Delicious food, nice service, a place worth recommending :)

What a welcome! I was simply refused entry because I was alone! "Only One People? No!" followed by a casual gesture to make me understand that I should move away. I hope this casualness doesn't carry over into the kitchen!

The food and service were fantastic! Very plentiful and excellent value for money. Highly recommended!

Has declined considerably...but service is top-notch!

Delicious food in the old city centre

Saturdays between 4 and 7 p.m. The food was OK. Service and kitchen were much too slow. We had to order our food twice because the order was "lost" when we asked for it. The total wait time was about 1.5 hours, even though it wasn't that busy. Kölsch served in Pilsner glasses. Payment by card only inside. Conclusion: You can do it once, but it could be much better.

Right next to the church. Great location.

Very friendly waiters, really great people!

Beautiful terrace near the cathedral. I didn't eat, just had a drink, because they serve Leffe Bruin on tap. But my good mood was wiped out when I tried to pay by card. Card payments only accepted for amounts over 15 euros. These days, that's a no-go. The owners want to save on fees and continue to line their pockets, even though the place has been flooded with tourists. No one can tell me that the owners aren't making enough money.

Top notch! Great food, friendly service, dog-friendly. Sitting upstairs is a bit warm, but that's okay. Fresh beer, great schnitzel, large portions, great appetizers and desserts. Real German food with quality!

A beautifully located restaurant in Aachen's old town. A terrace with a courtyard feel. True to its name. We received attentive service. The dishes we ordered were excellent. Unfortunately, we had to skip dessert because the train was running. A real shame. We'll definitely make up for it. Thank you very much.

Good foods, good taste,big portion. Outdoor seats are breeding at that time, will come back if we have another chance to Aachen old town.

We had dinner here this evening and were very satisfied overall. We received a friendly welcome and luckily got a table outside even without a reservation. We were on the side near the cathedral, and the seating there is really nice. The service was attentive and very friendly throughout the evening. The drinks arrived promptly, and our request for a colder beer was responded to promptly and professionally. The food was excellent. From the onion soup to the ravioli to the boiled beef, everything tasted really good. It was presented on beautiful plates, and the knives were actually sharp. We can only praise everything. Thank you for a great meal and a pleasant evening. We'll be back.

Well-balanced dish between meat and side dish. The meat was excellent, cooked perfectly medium/rare. Friendly staff and precise service, especially for drinks. The wait for the dishes was a bit long, but I was in good company, so it didn't matter. Positive experience, I will definitely be back.

A portion of fries for 9 euros. This was the result of a "special order." Fries aren't on the menu, but they made them for my daughter anyway. That was nice, but the price was not worth it: 9 euros!

A great location, delicious food, friendly staff, stylish presentations...

Very nice terrace, good food, very unfriendly, disinterested waitress.

Tasty surprise in the heart of Aachen During a day in Aachen we ended up here – and it turned out to be a bull’s eye. Familiar dishes, but surprisingly executed. The onion soup with fennel was deliciously full of flavour, the beef carpaccio got a fresh twist with artichoke, figs and mango dressing, and the salad with serrano ham, pesto and mozzarella was delicious – the tomatoes in particular stood out because of their flavour. The local Weissburgunder was a fine, fresh white wine that went well with the summer weather. What was also noticeable: a quietly situated terrace at the back and a livelier terrace at the front, so you can choose what you like. It is also pleasant to sit inside, with a warm atmosphere. And not unimportant: clean, spacious toilets – always a plus. The service was friendly and relaxed. A place where attention is clearly paid to both the food and the experience. Recommended if you are in the centre of Aachen and fancy good food in a pleasant environment.

The food was really good, you can notice the quality ; unfortunately for this kind of restaurant I expected a better service . The view and place is really comfortable and nice with the Dom.

Good food and good service. Pleasant atmosphere.

Pairing schnitzel and cranberries is a delightful idea. So good!

25 minutes to get beer and a Cappuccino on an empty terrasse on a rainy Thursday ... Just to learn at the last minute that you can't even pay with card (not mentionned before) 😅 I guess the beer was good tho

The three of us sat at a table in the outdoor lighting, where there was no reserved sign. The waiter came and asked if we had a reservation, which I said no. We were then asked to vacate the table for five. We could sit there when a single woman was ready. I explained that I had been driving for 10 hours (and still had 270 km to go) and wasn't going to wait for someone to vacate a table. We weren't served afterward. I can't comment on how the experience would have been. However, the restrooms, both men's and women's, are not a reason to visit this restaurant.

We were meeting up with friends and luckily had reservations. It wasn't too loud, though, and we had a good conversation. The food was delicious. Everyone in our group was satisfied.

Nice place with a price-performance ratio

We went to the restaurant without a reservation. All the staff were very friendly. The food was beautifully presented and very tasty.

Lovely food, good choice and service

Excellent restaurant with interesting and high quality dishes. Above expectations. Fast, friendly and effective service.

Excellent service and we loved the traditional style, it has that breath of the past. Fresh flowers at the table too. Most of the places where we've been in Germany and Netherlands had plastic. So, nice effort. The food was really delicious. I had an excellent roast beef, and others the Viener Schnitzels that they really liked. Certainly a recommendation.

Very tasty food with very good service and a nice cozy atmosphere.

Tasty food and good service. Great location right near the cathedral

Starter Sour meat is tasty. The homemade beef is very good.

Excellent food - incredibly tasty/ from the salad dressing to the saffron noodles and the perfectly fried pike perch. And very nice and loving staff / very attentive - top We ate here twice and can only recommend it. LG Conny and Gerd from Hamburg

Very tasty food, friendly staff, beautiful old building with beamed ceilings.

Our company outing went to Aachen. The table was reserved in the Rose at the Cathedral. An excellent decision. We received a very friendly welcome and the food was simply delicious and plentiful. Very happy again.

Service was friendly, but everything took an extremely long time, even though not all the tables outside were occupied and everything inside was empty. I had to go in to pay because no one came to the table (even if they tried to make themselves noticed). A glass of water was more expensive than a coffee (!). When paying, the boss was a bit overwhelmed with calculating the change. It's better to go next door to drink coffee.

Very nice restaurant right next to Aachen Cathedral. The atmosphere is cozy. The food was fantastic. Price/performance definitely fits. The service was very friendly.

This restaurant alone would be a reason to go to Aachen. Varied menu, delicious preparation, beautiful, well-kept atmosphere, top location, fair prices and incredibly nice, friendly and courteous service. The visit was a pure pleasure!

Down-to-earth German cuisine. Good but nothing outstanding

Probably my favorite German restaurant in Aachen. Typical German cuisine, nice to bring foreign friends and tourists here!

Very friendly and nice service in a historic location. The “Berlin liver” was excellent.

Delicious food, nice place, nice service. Fast service

Typical German cuisine restaurant. Very good dishes and generous portions. Excellent beer. Espresso coffee similar to the Italian one. Courteous staff.

Unfortunately, the sauerbraten was far too dry and the dumplings were only lukewarm. The liver dumpling soup for €9.90 is far too expensive for just a dumpling with a bit of broth. The soap in the toilet was already empty upon arrival and was not refilled during the visit. Overall, the visit there was rather disappointing.

Unfortunately, the reservation went a bit bumpy because the day was entered incorrectly. However, in the end we still managed to visit on the day we wanted. I had a salad first and the beef fillet as the main course. What I remember positively is the delicious vegetables and meat. Although I wanted my steak medium, it was very close to done. Nevertheless, the meat was very tender and good. Unfortunately, the potato gratin tasted too strongly of cumin and didn't go well with the meal. The salad beforehand was okay, but the mustard dressing was too spicy for me personally. Unfortunately, the meat quality of my companions wasn't that good and was quite dry (duck breast and sauerbraten) After we were asked whether the food was tasty, we passed on the criticism or constructive criticism, which unfortunately wasn't really noticed. Overall, I would only rate the restaurant three out of five stars because we waited a long time for the food, it really wasn't great in terms of taste and the price is absolutely not justified!

Unfortunately I couldn't enjoy my duck breast with potato gratin and red cabbage. The duck and the gratin were too dry, the red cabbage looked like it came from a can. For the price, I expected a dish that exceeded that of a run-of-the-mill restaurant. Unfortunately I was disappointed. When criticism was expressed to the waiter, he fled the table without comment. After the bone-dry experience, I was full but not satisfied. That's why there are 3 stars for this.

I recently visited the Rose am Dom restaurant and was absolutely thrilled! The food was simply outstanding - every dish was a highlight in terms of taste, beautifully presented and made with high-quality ingredients. The house specialties, which are both creative and authentic, are particularly recommended. A big compliment also goes to the waiter HAKKI, who made the evening even nicer. He was not only super nice and accommodating, but also extremely competent and attentive. With his warm manner he made us feel really welcome and was always helpful with questions about the map. The restaurant's ambience is stylish and cozy - a perfect place to spend a special evening. I will definitely come back and can warmly recommend the “Rose am Dom”!

Very old and beautiful restaurant

A culinary masterpiece in the heart of Aachen! The Rose am Dom restaurant combines exquisite cuisine, perfect ambience and first-class service to create an experience that is second to none. Every bite was a firework of flavors – simply irresistible! The attention to detail, both on the plates and in the service, is impressive. If you don't dine here, you're definitely missing out on one of the best restaurants in the region. Absolute recommendation – 10 out of 5 stars!

The fried potatoes were warmed up and very mushy

Food inedible, staff so uninterested.

Best Wiener Schnitzel & Creme Brulee ever!!

Restaurant with a great atmosphere. We were a very large group for supper and the waiting time was long, we got the cream soup an hour and a half after ordering. The main meal was almost immediately after eating the cream soup, it's okay. Service in English at a very good level. The chestnut cream was delicious, it was the first time I ate something like this and I was positively surprised. Main course - steak. The service did not ask us about the level of doneness of the meat. Despite this, it was delicious. Huge portion! Dessert average, did not suit me. Overall, I rate the stay very good and give a strong 4!

Very tasty food and cozy atmosphere.

I'm thrilled! We were there spontaneously today with our little son (3.5 years old) (not always 100% suitable for a restaurant) and were treated very courteously. The food absolutely convinced me and everyone else at the table; it is a successful mix of fine cuisine and home cooking. The only criticism is that one dish came a little later, but the overall impression is positive. We'd love to come back!

Ate very well. If you're still looking for artisanal cuisine, you'll find it here.

Always ask for the detailed bill!! We asked for the bill, the waitress told us the total anount, we paid.. it all happened very quickly.. then we insisted receiving the bill… we got it, they overcharged us 18 euros hoping that we wouldn’t ask for the details.. we were immediately reimbursed and the waitress gave us a lame excuse.. the food was okay.. we did not feel welcome.. we felt this place was dishonest , so tourists beware!!

Highly pretentious place. If the setting is charming, the service is deplorable and above all the food is very disappointing. The menu, presentation and prices give the impression of a high quality place but the reality is bland cuisine in small quantities without much interest.

New Year's Eve 2024/25 A very nice restaurant with top landlord and service Food and drinks are a feast for the palate

Authentic German cuisine. Very happy family of 7 from the UK. Thank you!

Very tasty food! friendly service. The employees were approachable at any time and clearly enjoyed their work. A restaurant that we can recommend. We'll definitely be back!

friendly welcome and despite the crowds (Christmas market), we were able to settle in without any worries.

Very good restaurant in the heart of Aachen. They serve local cuisine with a smile. Prices are democratic.

Very good restaurant, very generous, everything was perfect

It tasted very good. Ambiance was also very cozy. Despite a very harsh tone from the boss, the employees remained calm and professional. I'd love to come back

Very well eaten, very friendly service and excellent fried potatoes.

Customers who are satisfied with the food at an average all inclusive hotel in Alanya will appreciate the level offered here. The food served truly indicates uninspired and uncommitted kitchen staff. One thing that might be less important, but perhaps still worth mentioning is that the female waiter tried to be nice while her male colleague's self-image was not anywhere near in sync with reality. If you feel it's so important to signal disapproval of certain customers or customer types, perhaps you shouldn't work in a service profession. But in the end it's all about what comes out on the plate. This place serves truly mediocre food, it's as simple as that. Poor food equals poor review.

Impossible to get a table. Unable to book. Come back in 1 hour. Still not possible. And rude staff

Very tasty and above all high quality food. Nice and attentive team.

It was good, the food was tasty, the service was friendly

Rustic food in a rustic atmosphere. Very good quality home cooking. Recommended.

We felt really comfortable with Rose am Dom, very nice service and super delicious food, nice, rustic atmosphere! We would love to come back on our next visit to Aachen!

Excellent lunch today with super service from the waitress and Owner!! Schnitzel a sensible sized portion and the Berliner calves liver eat to die for.... thank you to the chef!!))👍✅

Excellent 😋 the perfect place to eat

Wir haben sehr gut gegessen. Bekannte Gerichte etwas moderner gekocht, sehr lecker, sehr frisch. Es gab einen tollen Service. Die Mädels waren sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und schnell

De kaart is erg gevarieerd: soep, salades, vlees, vis en vegetarisch. Eerlijke Duitse gerechten. Wij waren met onze drie pubers en iedereen kon vrijwel moeiteloos iets vinden op de kaart. De bediening was vriendelijk en toeschietelijk. Wij hadden een Duitse rode wijn besteld, die uitverkocht bleek en de ober kwam direct met een Italiaans alternatief. Mijn tafelgenoten bestelden een dessert en ik een Grand Marnier. Dat bleek er niet te zijn en ik kreeg een dom likeur van het huis aangeboden.

Is a tourist trap really a tourist trap if it’s actually good? My son and I visited Aachen in July and had lunch here before our tour of the dom. It was a beautiful day so we ate outside. Two servers helped us; they were patient with our attempts at German and kind about accommodating a special request from my son. We enjoyed our food very much - I had a schnitzel, my son had pasta, and we shared dessert. I will happily return if we visit Aachen again.

Delicious food and nice service! If you want to enjoy delicious food in a beautiful setting, this restaurant is a good choice

Just dropped in by chance and was totally thrilled! Great wine list, very selected very good wines on the menu. The food was good, homely and very sufficient... we'll be back next time we're in Aachen.

A restaurant in a good location right next to the cathedral. I came for dinner without a reservation, but was able to sit down. The staff's customer service was very polite and friendly. Ordered beer and 3 dishes. The beer is cold and delicious! The meat dishes were very delicious. It was soft and the saltiness was perfect. Unfortunately, the pasta was overcooked and had a dull texture. However, the sauce was delicious and had a strong seafood broth. It would have been 100 points if the pasta was well-cooked! The amount of desserts is large! I was happy.

Very nice restaurant, we had a very nice dinner. The food was good, the portions quite large. Delicious beer, of course 😀

It is a stylish place where the owner is incredibly hospitable and where you can drink the best food and drinks. Thank you 👏🏼

Es ist unglaublich dass einen Lokal dass um.23 Uhr schließt kann kein Kaffee um 22 Uhr mehr bedienen. Wenn Ente auf die Karte ist, der Kellner muss fragen wie es bereidt muss sein (rosé oder ..). Mein Essen war zu gekocht.

Wanted to have a drink inside, but unfortunately that was not allowed. Only as a restaurant. And it was virtually empty. It has 2 parts, you would say at certain times you can just have a drink.... but unfortunately... The building looks great from the outside. A bit sterile on the inside.

I would like to visit again - simply very good 👍 in all respects
