Seecafe Italiano in Hanau

Forks, tables, and toilets have been very dirty over the past few months. I don't want to be a customer here anymore because I've seen for so long that the problem hasn't been addressed.

Such a delicious breakfast. It was perfectly prepared! I haven't had such a good breakfast in a long time.

Service was very nice, ambience very chaotic, the food unfortunately has nothing to do with Italian cuisine

5 stars if the boycotted Coca Cola is no longer available otherwise very very nice accommodating and incredibly tasty

Such a delicious breakfast. Truly the best breakfast I've ever eaten.

I heard about this place through my brother and was beyond impressed. The food is simply amazing, and the ambiance is very inviting, cozy, and beautiful, especially the outdoor area in summer. The service is excellent and very friendly! Highly recommended!

A lovely evening in a modern Italian pizzeria with a delicious Italian dish and a nice glass of white wine?? None at all!!! I nearly fell off my chair and thought the waiter was trying to make a fuss when I ordered a glass of white wine with my meal and he told me they no longer serve alcoholic beverages. When I asked in disbelief why, I was told it was a new concept. What kind of concept is that???? An outpost of a day clinic for people at risk of addiction? Here in Central Europe, a glass of wine or beer is part of a good meal; there are people who like to enjoy it in moderation when they go to a restaurant. It's a shame, that's not a restaurant for me anymore; I always enjoyed going there.

An Italian without wine and beer? Donato, what's up with that?!?!?

A good restaurant but unfortunately it's not nice to sit outside in the middle of a parking lot except on Sundays when the shopping center is closed.

Unfortunately, there's no proper Italian cuisine. An Italian pizza doesn't belong with beef salami. There's no beer or wine to drink. Alcohol is apparently haram.

I don't understand what the name "Italiano" is doing in this place. The menu is more like a kebab shop! A disgrace for any Italian. But thank goodness there are plenty of authentic Italian restaurants in the area. To anyone reading my review, save yourself the trip!

Is there a reason why the See-Café no longer serves alcohol? Only non-alcoholic wine and non-alcoholic beer. When you ask, the answer is simply, "We don't have any," but the restaurant itself doesn't seem to know why either. That's why I'm writing it here.

I've been a guest at the Seecafé since it opened and am always impressed by the consistently high quality and freshness. With a new menu, modern ideas, and lovingly selected tableware, the team demonstrates their care and passion. A place with taste – in every sense. 👍🏻 Respect

Unbelievably bad! I had to wait 30 minutes before I finally got my bill after what felt like a hundred inquiries – I've rarely experienced such audacity. No alcohol was available, and as if that wasn't enough, I was fobbed off with the worst ice matcha ever – disgusting and inedible! This place is an absolute disaster, unlike before; customer service is nonexistent. Save yourself the trip; SeeCafe Italiano is a disgrace, apart from the outdoor terrace!

We were there on Saturday evening, wanted to have a nice meal, a table was reserved and free. Everything was fine up until then, then I looked at the drinks menu 😳, oops, all non-alcoholic drinks 🤔🫣, the menu only had beef and poultry 😢, no pork 🐖, now I know why. This isn't my restaurant anymore, sorry, that's how you drive your customers away.

Waited for 10 minutes, you are completely ignored and not served

Good atmosphere, poor service. We ordered two drinks and a cake. The first came immediately, the second 10 minutes later, and the cake 20 minutes later. It was as if they were serving in installments.

We've been regulars for years, even during Corona and after the lockdown, we were always there. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming, and the food is good. Last week we noticed that the new menu no longer includes alcoholic drinks. We wanted to celebrate my husband's birthday with 10 people, but a glass of alcoholic beer or wine with Mediterranean food is simply part of it for us and our guests. As older Christian people, we feel discriminated against. WHAT A PITY!!! It seems that in the future it will be a lakeside café for Muslim guests only. Many thanks to Dadan and Vesta; you were always very kind to us; we will miss you.

It's super nice to have a long breakfast with your girlfriend ☺️

Highly recommended. Amazing ambiance, super delicious food, and friendly service.

The salad wasn't fresh. The leaves were brown, the mango mushy. You should pay €20 for that. Furthermore, the food was poorly presented. The cheese was simply sliced ​​on top, not even chopped. The bread was dried out. It's a shame, we used to love going there. But definitely not like this anymore!

Exceptionally delicious and of excellent quality! A fantastic atmosphere, modern and flooded with light. It's an excellent location for a first date or a cozy evening with friends.

I usually love the café. I always enjoy going there. Especially in the summer, outside on the terrace. Yesterday we had the Pasta Amore... unfortunately, it was too dry, with almost no sauce. The pine nuts were burnt and took away the flavor of the pasta. We had to ask the waiter two or three times for salt. (He didn't bring any and fetched a salt shaker himself.) The dish now costs €20 (prices were raised), so I expected more... Prices like these make you think twice about eating there. What a shame!

As always, very good food, friendly service, great location...

We were there with our company. The food was very good 👍 As was the service, even though it was very busy. We'd gladly go back ☺️

We wanted to have breakfast there... We arrived at 11:30 a.m. and were told that the breakfast buffet would cost €17.90 instead of €12.90. The reason given was "because of the summer holidays." When we asked if the buffet was still being restocked, as we could see upon entering that there was practically nothing left! The answer was no, because the breakfast buffet was only open for another 30 minutes. But we were supposed to pay full price! We then left... We thought they should either lower the price or have everything available by 12 p.m.!!! We also thought it was a disgrace to raise the price by €5 because of the summer holidays. It's a shame, because it's a really nice place.

Pizza bombs passsstaaaaaa bombs

A very nice café on the outskirts of Hanau. Unfortunately, the smell of gasoline from the neighboring gas station occasionally wafts up to the table, which is very unpleasant outside. Inside, it's unnoticeable, and you can easily switch if it bothers you. The food is very good, and I highly recommend both the small and large menus.

A truly beautiful atmosphere...it feels like you're on vacation when you sit outside. My husband and I were definitely able to unwind. And now we're called Holunder...the delicious iced teas are highly recommended :D

Went there for breakfast with colleagues yesterday. The buffet was very extensive, with many Italian specialties. Freshly prepared and delicious. A great place to have an unusual brunch, as the dishes don't match the standard German breakfast. The service was very friendly, but you always had to look around and make yourself known if you wanted to order another coffee, for example, so it loses one point.

Yes, definitely. The breakfast buffet is constantly checked and restocked. It was just a shame that the various types of bread shown in the corresponding picture, as a description, weren't in the selection. For example, spelt bread. There was only white bread. It would be perfect if the various sausages were provided with food labels, for example, whether they were beef, pork, or poultry.

The breakfast buffet is varied, but I would have liked more fruit. The selection of cold cuts and cheeses unfortunately didn't meet my expectations. Salmon would have been a personal highlight for me. Service was excellent. The price is OK at €12.90, including a cup of filter coffee or a glass of water. €15.00 would have been perfectly reasonable for a larger selection.

It's not like it used to be...an Italian restaurant that doesn't serve wine or alcoholic beverages isn't Italian anymore; you should say so upfront and not leave it on the menu...the food was OK, but nothing great....

Consistently good quality for 10 years. From the owner to the employees, everyone at the company is very friendly, fast, and hard-working.

We were here for the midweek breakfast buffet during our vacation (€17.90). There was a sufficiently large selection (salmon, lots of antipasti, see pictures). Unfortunately, no cereal. A water or coffee was included in the price. The atmosphere was good. Unfortunately, much of the food was very oily.

A little more expensive here, but quality has its price. Everything's just right here!

Just because it's a holiday, the breakfast buffet will be charged at the weekend rate without any notice. Our company will enjoy its monthly breakfast elsewhere.

"Absolutely abysmal! We learned at the table that the buffet price had increased from €12.90 to €17.90 during the holiday season. Even the waitress couldn't understand the price increase and blamed the manager. On top of that, we had to ask the staff several times to refill the empty buffet. What justifies such a €5 price increase when the service suffers so much?" The service manager acknowledged the criticism and apologized.

Unfair pricing during the holidays We discovered that the prices for brunch had been significantly increased without warning – from €12.90 to €17.90, simply because we were on holiday in Hesse! A disgrace for families! Neither online nor on-site had this been mentioned beforehand. We were only informed of the higher price at our table. The waitress was friendly, apologized, and explained the situation, but that doesn't change the fact that this is very annoying for guests. In addition, the buffet was not regularly refilled. This will be our last time here! The only positive thing to mention is the really good service.

We visited the Seecafé for breakfast yesterday. Due to the holidays in Hesse, the buffet cost €17.90 instead of the usual €12.90. We find this significant price increase, at a time when families in particular want to take advantage of the offering, to be unreasonable and not very customer-friendly. Unfortunately, the quality of the food did not justify the higher price, and items were not replenished promptly. The behavior of the staff, who repeatedly served themselves at the buffet, also left an unprofessional impression. The condition of the restrooms was once again particularly disappointing: During my last ten visits, the toilets were always dirty, paper towels were regularly missing, the sinks were leaking, and the unpleasant odor and dirt contributed to an overall very poor impression. Due to the disproportionately high price and the aforementioned deficiencies, we will refrain from visiting in the future.

We were there on a Saturday evening. We were told in the morning that no reservation was necessary. That evening, however, it became clear that you do indeed need a reservation. You can wait up to 30 minutes for a table, even if you want one. The entire outdoor area is packed with tables, and it's so loud that you can hardly hear the person sitting across from you. Furthermore, it's very cramped outside, so you either sit in the hedge or in the small lake. The food is average. It arrived so quickly that a lot of preparation had taken place, but that didn't help matters. The pasta was still a bit chewy. In general, the pasta portion was very small. The tomatoes and basil were chopped rather than shredded. This was definitely not a pleasant atmosphere.

Hello, We went to the breakfast buffet for the first time in a long time. The selection is much smaller than before. Many things that are part of a breakfast routine, like bacon with scrambled eggs, were also missing. Furthermore, the women's restrooms are so dirty and disgusting. When you go to breakfast at 9 a.m. on a Saturday and go to the bathroom at 9:10 a.m. and everything is dirty and uncleaned, it's disgusting and cries out for help. You don't want to know how the kitchen is cleaned. You also think that broken things like the sink in the restroom will be fixed at some point.

It used to be a good restaurant with excellent food. But recently they stopped serving alcohol. Why??? Italian food without wine...??? None of the many employees could give me a reason for this change. It lacks professionalism. On our last visit, the food arrived very late, so that the first person was almost finished. Unfortunately, the wrong food arrived, but it tasted just as good as before. It's a shame, because of the new alcohol-free concept, we're no longer customers. And we're probably not the only ones.

The ambiance and the buffet are excellent. The service is also mostly friendly. HOWEVER, we find it a complete disgrace that you have to pay the same price for the buffet every day during the holidays as you do on weekends or public holidays. So, from now on, they'll have 13 fewer guests.

Very nice café with a small lake. Seating around the lake. Very friendly and attentive staff. Great breakfast buffet.

If a bar can't offer beer or wine, even though it's listed on the menu, then the business is in pretty bad shape financially. Once, never again.

Unfortunately, we were disappointed with the breakfast buffet. For €17.90, we didn't expect constantly empty displays, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. The salad selection also left a lot to be desired. Two stars are due to the very good rolls and friendly service.

Unfortunately, the breakfast was very disappointing. The rolls were good, though. The food selection was okay, but nothing special. All the dishes were always empty and were rarely refilled. It's a shame. Maybe it'll be better there another day.

A really nice restaurant and cafe. Sometimes a bit overpriced. The staff is generally friendly, but sometimes a bit pushy. We've been going there every now and then for years.

Was invited to brunch, I really enjoyed it, I can only recommend it 👍

I always love ordering a salad here; they're simply delicious! It's just a shame that the service doesn't always match the quality of the food. And to my surprise, they recently stopped offering alcohol. What's wrong with a glass of white wine with dinner? Unfortunately, they were sold out of white wine, so I had to order an Aperol.

I was very disappointed today. The menu was completely messed up, the tables were shabby, and my friends couldn't get a beer. I couldn't order it anymore because it's supposed to be alcohol-free in the future?! It's a good idea in itself, but we'll look for another restaurant. Considering I was there when it reopened, it's unfortunately no longer the way I knew it. Very sad 😢

I'm just disappointed. The wait for two pizzas is 1.40 hours, and then you get a burnt pizza crust. My spaghetti Bolognese was just a tomato mush.

Friendly staff. Good food. Prices are starting to get a bit pricey. Very pleasant outdoor seating.

In any case, the restaurant is very good 👍

We were here for the first time today. The ambiance is good. You can sit by the water or inside. The staff were all friendly. Our food was delicious and the quality was very good. The value for money is good. The service was attentive. I can recommend Seecaffee Italiano with a clear conscience. Reservations are recommended in the evenings and on weekends.

I think it's really nice there, you have a nice view and the service is super nice, I'm satisfied

Good food. Very friendly service. Worth it :-)

Nice ambiance. A bit crowded during the breakfast buffet (9 a.m. to 12 p.m.).

Very friendly staff. I always enjoy the food. I enjoy coming here and can only recommend it.

The food has always been excellent on every visit so far! The service could be a bit better, though. Reservations by phone were rejected and one was told to just drop in, but they couldn't guarantee that a table would be available (logically!). The service in the restaurant itself was sometimes unmotivated, and at times it seemed as if they had received little training. You should also order drinks in advance, otherwise you'll be left without food for quite some time. The ambiance is good, nicely decorated, and clean, although I personally found it very noisy, especially in the evenings. I think the price/quality ratio is perfectly reasonable for these times.

We wanted to pay and were told, "Yes, right away," but 40 minutes later, they arrived, freezing cold. And the menu really has very little choice compared to the small restaurant.

The service is absolutely terrible. The simplest order of cake and coffee is brought separately, 7 minutes apart. Never again!

Best pizza I've ever had. The price is far more than the quality. I understand from friends and family that it's halal, even though they sell alcohol. I think it's great that you're hosting a Ramadan buffet 😁

Simply top-notch Here, the food is cooked with passion and the guests are taken care of – simply fantastic.

According to the Consumer Protection Agency of Hesse, which works with reports from the health department: "Repeated and, in some cases, significant deficiencies in operational hygiene and food handling were identified and documented in several areas of the facility. Good food hygiene was not ensured in several areas of the facility. Several food items (including rice and shrimp) were found that were not cooled to an appropriate temperature as quickly as possible after preparation. Furthermore, food was stored in contaminated blue vegetable crates."

I have to rewrite this review. I can't describe how angry I am with this restaurant. I've given this place enough chances. You wait at least 30-45 minutes for service. Even when you call the server, they say, "I'll be right there" (and then they never come). Everyone else gets served first. It's catastrophic. It just annoys me because the food is really delicious. I'll simply never go back. I've had enough.

We waited more than 30 minutes for waffles and ended up not getting any, even though the waitress told us we would get them within 15 minutes. It was a complete disgrace to wait there like that, and even without compensation.

I love going here for the breakfast buffet. They have a good food range and a lot of space to sit. The price is also really good.

Never again! I’m a tourist visiting from England. There was a bald server who was extremely rude just because I couldn’t speak German. I kindly asked if he could speak English or find someone who could, but he kept speaking German and told me someone did speak English — yet never called anyone over. A few minutes later, I politely asked to cancel one of my drinks because I have a gluten allergy and needed a non-dairy option. He refused to cancel it, even though the drink hadn’t been prepared or served yet! I ended up paying for something I couldn’t even consume. It was one of the most upsetting and unwelcoming experiences I’ve ever had!

We ordered 2 pizzas and they arrived as if they hadn't been made with love but rather as if they had been made quickly. However, it wasn't quick either as we waited 25 minutes for the pizzas and some of them were burnt and not cut by the staff. All I can say is that it took us a long time to order as the ladies who came after us were more important.

Excellent breakfast buffet, very friendly and fast staff. For that price, you can't just go for breakfast anywhere else. Even if the price goes up tomorrow, July 4th...it's worth it!!!! Great!!! I can't understand why so many people are giving negative reviews!! Today is July 3rd, 2025 Unfortunately, I couldn't change my attendance from 5 years ago.

The pizza was delicious, but a bit greasy. The super-thin crust made it difficult to eat. The staff should wipe down the tables more thoroughly, or even just wipe them down occasionally. The pages of our menus were stuck together, which wasn't exactly appetizing. Maybe the manager should keep an eye on that! Otherwise, the atmosphere was friendly, and the outdoor seating was nice.

Highly recommended, always good food and friendly service! We'll be back

We always come to the See Café, whether for coffee or dinner, but what's been happening lately is a bit odd. The beer tap has been "broken" for several weeks (supposedly), and they only serve dark wheat beer or non-alcoholic pilsner. It's a shame there's no alcohol selection at all; the atmosphere and staff are great. Why doesn't the owner take care of this?

A great buffet with a diverse selection of breakfast, salads, pasta, and antipasti. Advance reservations are essential. Decaf coffees are also available, and the selection is sophisticated. It's quite noisy inside, but you can sit outside around the lake. The service is very fast.

I have been there many times, everything tastes very good 👍🏻😋🥰 here are some pictures

Great breakfast, huge selection, and simply delicious. The service was very friendly and prompt. Sitting outside by the lake is like a little vacation.

We regularly visit Seecafé Italiano for breakfast – especially because of the open breakfast buffet, which is very popular with many of us from the Turkish community. Unfortunately, the included drinks are missing something that is simply essential for us at breakfast: hot tea. While coffee or water is included in the price, you have to pay extra for a glass of tea – and not only I, but certainly many other guests, find this very disappointing. A glass of tea for €3 at a buffet that has already been paid for seems unwelcoming and casts a shadow over the otherwise very pleasant experience in your café. The ambiance, the food, and the service are truly great – but an unlimited tea service, especially at breakfast, would be a huge improvement and would surely delight many guests. I sincerely hope that you take this feedback seriously and reconsider your concept accordingly.

We were there for breakfast today – which was, unfortunately, an absolute disaster. We had a reservation for 10:30 a.m. and when we arrived, the buffet was already half empty. Nothing was refilled – what was left of the buffet was partly inedible. Even the coffee was abysmal. One star is only for the ambiance. We definitely won't be coming back.

Nice ambience and great brunch (something for everyone). Advance booking is required.

Delicious and very nice service

Best waiter best restaurant Dardan super person very friendly and super accommodating

Pizza is good but the rest in the kitchen everywhere mold the service is not good

Delicious food, a large restaurant, and always quite busy, so you might have to wait a bit to order. Nevertheless, the ambiance and location, as well as the friendly waiters, always make a visit worthwhile. We enjoy our visit and like the selection on the menu.

Always delicious. The food is very good. Still the best pizza I've ever eaten! The brunch buffet also offers a wide selection—there's something for everyone. I always enjoy coming back.

Incredibly delicious breakfast with homemade bread, rolls, and coffee pieces. Super friendly service, especially if you can sit outside. It's okay inside, but that's subjective.

Unfortunately, this restaurant disappointed us. Not only was the pizza tasteless, but the spaghetti was half-soaked in olive oil. We won't be going back to this restaurant.

The pizza was very hard; I won't be coming back. We took it with us, but after two hours it was inedible because it was rock hard. It was very loud; you could barely hear each other. The air quality was bad, and it was very stuffy inside.

Very nice location in the middle of a shopping paradise. Very friendly and attentive staff...

Had a lovely evening with customers. Food was great, service was attentive, everything was great.

The atmosphere is great. Brunch is really great and the price-performance ratio is great too! The service staff was a bit overwhelmed! But brunch with the family on Sunday is worth it!

We were only there for a coffee - it turned out to be a bit more because it was quite nice there. Top service The cakes were great

There is cigarette smoke everywhere in the hall. How can non-smokers and those with children eat there?

Great, delicious pizzas, very nice service, nice, long kitchen times, unfortunately usually very loud with a lot of hustle and bustle

Good portions. Very nice employees. Short waiting times.

Very good selection and tasty And the prices are good too

Very pleasant coffee with friendly service.

Very nice terrace, you can't see it on the website. Breakfast with everything your heart desires.

I had a delicious seafood pizza yesterday. One of the best I've ever eaten. Everything fresh and the salads 👌
