Salt & Pepper The City Diner in Friedrichroda

Really, really good... I think the chef is an artist 😉

Everything was fine, good food, friendly staff.

Great atmosphere and very good food at fair prices.

We visited last week. The food was okay, which annoyed us that at 8:30 p.m. we were always looking at the clock to see if and when we would leave. At 9:00 p.m. we were brought the bill without being informed in advance and we specifically asked how long it would be open (until 10:00 p.m.). Shortly after 9 p.m. we were shown the door. Very, very unfortunate.

Very good food. Requests for changes were addressed and implemented as requested. Perfect! We had the dog with us and called ahead. Wasn't a problem.

Very nice restaurant, delicious food and very nice service. Really recommended!

Unfortunately we haven't had a chance to try the food yet. We were turned away a few weeks ago when we wanted to eat around 6 p.m. There were 2 tables occupied, the rest were free. Apparently there is too much to do because of a celebration... The next failure was last night around 7:30 p.m. We saw the flashing “Open” advertisement from afar and were looking forward to dinner again. But when we were at the entrance, the "friendly" service person pulled the plug on the advertising and informed us that it was now closed... Actually, according to the opening times, it is open until 11 p.m.!! There were only two people in the dining room and I think they just wanted to call it a day. It's a shame because we were hungry. The catering industry complains, but with service like this no one should be surprised if certain places are no longer visited. I cannot recommend this restaurant or this service!!!

Food very good, as always very friendly.

Great food, great staff, prices are great, great atmosphere. Just nice to go out to eat. Clear recommendation

Very tasty food. Good price-performance ratio. And always friendly staff

.... best spare ribs I have ever eaten!

Cozy and super tasty. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Good, home-style cuisine and the prices are still reasonable and have remained so until now

I have visited this restaurant several times and can only confirm that the quality is always consistently high. Particularly worth mentioning is the cabbage roll, which is served in a generous portion and is really filling. The staff is very friendly and the prices are reasonable and fair.

Had reserved a table shortly beforehand. Very nice staff, very careful and friendly. Food requests were taken into account and so Sohnemann got exactly what he wanted and it tasted excellent. Thanks to the chef! Not only the children, but also us adults enjoyed it very much. The portions were pretty big. Keep it up.

In any case. It was very crowded but they made an effort to accommodate us. The steak we ordered was great.

We had the pleasure of dining at Salt & Pepper The City Diner in Friedrichroda and all we can say is it was simply perfect! The food was not only delicious, but also lovingly prepared and presented. Every bite was a delight and the selection of dishes left nothing to be desired. You immediately feel welcome and in good hands. The staff are friendly, attentive and always strive to offer guests an unforgettable experience. We can highly recommend Salt & Pepper The City Diner. It's the perfect place to enjoy good food in a welcoming atmosphere. We'll be back!

We were again spontaneously in Friedrichroda and in our “local restaurant” ✔️ It was well attended and everything was as usual, quick service and good food. Always happy to do so 🍀

Good and tasty food. Something for everyone. steaks; Burgers but also liver or unusual dishes such as Dead Grandma. The staff are friendly and always try to make you feel comfortable. Not our last visit. Tip: Better pre-order!

Six of us ate there today. Because we had read consistently good reviews, we made reservations in advance, which was certainly a good thing. The service was super friendly and we were able to order quickly. We all enjoyed the food. The burgers are amazing. We had to have the leftovers packed up because they were huge pieces. Other burger restaurants can take an example. The price-performance ratio is also very good. You can also go out to eat there with a large family. All I can say is we will definitely be back.

An all-round success with super friendly staff and delicious Thuringian food. Thanks for that.

Dear staff, We had a lovely evening with you yesterday. The food was very good. We didn't have to wait long for the orders. Everything is easy all around. We are guaranteed to be with you again. Kind regards Fam.Tanz/Schaak

It was just super delicious 😋. My wife and I are on Husky Musher training in the neighboring town. After a long, tiring day, Salt & Pepper approached us from outside. That we were there twice during our short vacation. The food, a simple bomb. Very tasty, portions huge. In any case, everyone is fed up. Highly recommended is the DDR burger but also the spare ribs, really tasty. My wife also raved about the steak plates, and the turkey strip salad on the second day was also delicious 😋. (She just thought, with so much meat, I'll eat some vitamins today) 😆😆😆😆 Big compliments to the kitchen, BUT also the ladies in the tip top service. Thank you for food and drink. Kind regards from Salzburg / Bruck an der Glocknerstrasse

Food was great. They are large portions. The burgers are highly recommended. 😀👌🏻

The people were very friendly and the food was great for the price. There was also a nice selection

IT WAS EVERYTHING GREAT! Cozy, beautifully decorated and very delicious food!!! The service was outstanding! I had a lovely little birthday party and would like to say thank you to Doris and her team! Warm greetings from Bad Tabarz Kurt and Angelika

Very good food, very nice service

The food was very tasty and the service was also very good 👍. Price/performance was also right. You should be hungry because the portions are big and delicious 😋. Definitely recommended 😋😋😋😋.

A restaurant that can only be recommended. Service great and friendly. Food great as always.

Unfortunately I can't agree with the others. We ate there on January 1st, 2025. The menu was so small that I overlooked it and asked the waitress for one, which was embarrassing at first. Was probably heavily discounted because of the holidays. I had steak with seasoned meat. The steak definitely didn't see a pan and was also tough. Was probably Just cooked the cutlet strip and then cut thin slices out of it. The spiced meat was just a flour mush. The piece of paper that was supposed to be a menu was already filled with sauce. That's why there is only one star for the friendly service.

Were there because we were traveling around town. We didn't know that you had to make a reservation. We asked for a table and were immediately told “no”. No information that you have to reserve. No attempt to encourage us to wait in case something becomes available or to sell something to take away. I imagine something different when it comes to service. But the store has enough sales and doesn't need every customer. Our view; never again.

We ate here twice within 4 days because it was so beautiful. We can only recommend it. Super comfortable and cozy. Nice ambience. The menu is varied and has something of everything. Price-performance ratio completely ok. Free parking is just 200m next door. The service was very friendly. We felt comfortable and welcome here.

Food was very tasty and service was very friendly.

Very tasty and generous portions, friendly staff. We'd love to come back

One of the best restaurants in Friedrichroda

Great restaurant with delicious cuisine - good value for money

Veal liver is highly recommended (if you like it).

Great atmosphere and the service is very friendly. I celebrated my birthday there. And all of my guests thought it was very nice and the food was delicious. Thanks again to the entire team for the lovely evening 💞

We had lunch today in the beautiful courtyard. The courtyard is surrounded by a wall. This means it is protected from the wind and quiet. The service was quick and competent. We chose veal liver and steak au four. Both met our expectations. The prices are reasonable, the beer and wine were at the perfect temperature. All in all, we felt very comfortable and would love to come back.

Very good food and moderate prices

The restaurant is awesome. Had dinner there today with my cousin and his family. All of the food was delicious I had the Salt%Pepper 🍔 🍔. Mega tasty and a real men's portion. People here are already giving 6 stars. We'll be back - promise. Greetings Michael

We were very satisfied. The food was plentiful and tasty, the service was very friendly and the prices were absolutely reasonable. We would definitely come here again. It is advisable to reserve a table.

Eat like grandma's. The restaurant offers good food, a bar and also a room for celebrations

Home-style German cuisine and more.

A very nice restaurant, the atmosphere has a good mix of modern and rustic. The food is very tasty and the portion size is also very good. We'll definitely be back. 👍 The beef cheeks with the braised cabbage were fantastic.

Very tasty food and friendly service. A dignified atmosphere invites you to linger. Would love to come back.

We are in Friedrichroda every year and regularly eat here. Simply delicious 😋

Food is good, service is fast... However, it really bothered us that the waitress petted the guests' dogs and then "forgot" to wash their hands!!! It wasn't unique, there were 2 different dogs during our visit alone...

Not great, staff is not unfriendly but not really friendly either. Food was mediocre

Went there with a large group for the first time for our birthday. It tasted great. All the food came at the same time and quite quickly.

Good food quality, excellent taste and sufficient quantity. After visiting it once and looking at the menu, the restaurant became my new regular restaurant. Anyone who doesn't find what they're looking for here can rightly be described as picky. The waitresses were all nice and dogs are also welcome here. However, it is advisable to pre-order during peak times. I would have liked to give more stars!

We sat in the beer garden, the service was very nice and quick, the food was very tasty and the prices were quite reasonable. However, without pre-ordering we wouldn't have been able to get a seat.

Solid and filling burger. Price-performance fits. The service is nice and hallelujah - you can pay by card. Unfortunately, this is the exception in Friedrichroda. The ambience could be improved a bit. The restaurant exudes a typical outdated small town flair with its non-linear furnishing style.

The food is very good and the service is always friendly. The prices are also acceptable.

Sat in the beer garden today, had a delicious meal like mom's, ice cold drinks and very nice service... we'll be back!!!

Inconspicuous from the outside, classic inside and a wonderful beer garden. The service is courteous and the food is delicious. The price-performance ratio is absolutely fair. The Salt'nPepper isn't for "fine dining," but that's probably not the crew's goal either. Robust and robust without sacrificing anything. A restaurant with its heart in the right place.

Very tasty and great value for money. Very nice staff. Only recommended!!

If you love traditional regional cuisine, this is the right place for you.

Wir sind 3-4 mal im Jahr in Friedrichroda für ein Wellness Wochenende und jedes mal gehen wir in der tollen Gaststätte essen. Das Ambiente, der Gastraum, das Personal und natürlich die gute Küche sind der absolute Hammer. Große Speisekarte, sehr sehr lecker. Der tolle Biergarten ist sehr zu empfehlen. Gemütlich und alles sehr sauber. Wir kommen 100%ig wieder.

Wir haben dort zwei sehr nette Abende verlebt. Die Speisekarte ist sehr umfangreich und die Speisen sind sehr lecker. Das Personal ist sehr nett und kompetent.

Very tasty food and very good service. The prices were also very good for the portions. Very good. Keep it up. We would love to come back 😋😋😋

Great service, large portions, we enjoyed it very much

Great restaurant. The food was very tasty and the service was friendly.

Wir haben mit 6 Personen nicht vorbestellt und haben trotz vollem Haus noch nach kurzer Wartezeit Platz bekommen. Obwohl der Name des Hauses andere Speisen vermuten lässt, haben wir hier eine regionale Küche vorgefunden, die qualitativ hochwertig und bodenständig und reichlich von freundlichem Personal serviert wurde. Wir waren rundherum zufrieden und gesättigt.

We were in Friedrichroda for the first time and discovered the restaurant by chance. It is quite inconspicuous from the outside but the inside is very nice to relax and eat. Thank you for the friendly hospitality.

Good prices, great service and absolutely delicious food. Always happy

Food is okay, although the sauerbraten wasn't really pickled... there's a lack of friendliness and empathy towards the guests. But since every evening is fully booked, that doesn't seem to be necessary.

Delicious food. We'd love to come back. The staff is great!!

We decided to have lunch here today. It was rustic, tasty Thuringian cuisine in a modern atmosphere. Value for money and service was good and friendly! We'd love to come back.

We were "received" at the entrance by guests who told us where to go to the guest rooms because we didn't know our way around and didn't know where to go. We were served after about 20 minutes. My husband enjoyed the goulash. I decided on Königsberger Klobse, which unfortunately wasn't cooked and had a strange taste. The caper sauce didn't have that slightly sweet taste as usual. Unfortunately I could only eat 2 potatoes. We then had to wait another 25 minutes after eating until we could pay. We wouldn't eat there again. The waiting time is too long and the price is simply not right, but that may also depend on the court.

The food was very tasty. But good things also have their price. The atmosphere is more like a bistro.

The restaurant has a bit of GDR charm, but super tasty food and very friendly service.

Highly recommended, reasonable prices.

When our friends were visiting, we decided to have dinner here at short notice. We had a lot of fun and the food was great. Very tasty and large portion. Staff was very nice, we found the price to be ok. Would love to come back.

The food and especially the service was great today 👍😃

I like to stop here when I'm hiking nearby. The food is delicious and the service staff are very friendly. The furnishings/decoration are a bit mixed together, but in the end they somehow fit. I can highly recommend the spare ribs.

The food was great. The service very good. The ambience, well. There are plants in the windows that require care and don't make a good picture. There are all sorts of knick-knacks on the tables. It all looks like it was sorted out somewhere. A pity. We'll still go back because of the good food.

It's worth a look. Everything tasted good.

Excellent German cuisine, with dishes that you know from home but don't necessarily cook anymore, e.g. B. Tafelspitz. Because you can no longer get it without ordering it from the butcher. Just go and let yourself be pampered! Everyone will find the right dish for their palate. Promised!!!

Great food. Nice personel. I'd love to come back.

We were there today with two families and were really positively surprised and made another reservation for the next few days. We particularly liked the GDR classics. Great praise for the service and cuisine.

Delicious food from Thuringian cuisine, everything was very tasty. Had dinner here three evenings. Prices reasonable. My companions thought it was great that many dishes from the GDR past were being recultivated in the menu in a contemporary way. It brought back memories and tasted great.

Very tasty, large portions highly recommended

Top service! Great value for money! Pleasant atmosphere...you don't need to know anything else, just visit and enjoy :)

Always my pleasure! Great service!!!

Bedienung nett, das Essen war nicht ganz so lecker. Teller viel zu klein für viel Speise.Da kann man noch was ändern

Es war einfach super super lecker und die Bedienung hat uns jeden Wunsch erfüllt.....wir kommen gerne wieder

Alles top. Sehr gutes Essen, top Service. Nette Leute und tolles Ambiente. Wir kommen gern wieder.

Immer wieder ein Besuch wert, gutes Essen, freundliches Personal

Nettes Lokal um etwas zu essen wobei die Preise für diese einfachen aber schmackhaften Gerichte relativ hoch sind - Schade !

Wir waren zum Weihnachtsessen es war sehr lecker und reichlich,ein ganz grosses Lob an die Küche und Service

Es passt einfach alles bei euch Preis-Leistung, Qualität........es schmeckt ist sehr zu empfehlen,Das Personal ist auch sehr nett ........ Kinderfreundlich ...es passt einfach alles wer bei euch nicht essen geht ist selber schuld......

Eine solide Kneipe, von der man kein Gourmetessen erwarten sollte. Das Essen war ok, aber nicht überragend. Viel Fertigzeugs im Essen. Die Bedienungen kamen irgendwann nicht mehr zum Getränke aufnehmen und waren evtl zu wenige für die vielen angemeldeten Gäste.

Im Bus wurde mir diese Gaststätte empfohlen, die Erwartungen wurden übertroffen. Deutsche Küche auf hohem Niveau. Wir empfehlen weiter.

Also das Ambiente und den Namen finde ich etwas verwirrend... Aber die deutsche Hausmannskost ist dennoch sehr lecker. Auch der Bürger hat überzeugt.

Das Essen war wie immer lecker, die Bedienung schnell und freundlich, so kann man sich wohl fühlen. Wir kommen wieder 🫶

Wir haben gut gegessen, es war lecker. Die Bedienung war freundlich und hat auch mehrmals nachgefragt ob alles okay ist. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Sehr freundliches Personal, Essen ist sehr schmackhaft, Preis Leistung passt, Gaststätte kann man nur empfehlen

Sehr angenehmes Klima Essen war super und die Kellner bzw.kellnerin war sehr nett

Wir waren zu 6. mit Reservierung vor Ort. Entgegen einiger Bewertungen hier: Trotz vollem Haus und offensichtlich angespannter Personalsituation, war die Bedienung freundlich, das Essen kam recht flott und hat zudem allen auch noch geschmeckt. Die Spareribs haben zwar nicht wirklich was mit Spareribs zu tun, waren aber trotzdem lecker.
