Steakhouse Rodizio in Dortmund

Everything was great, felt very comfortable

Great food and great service!! Thumbs up, keep it up.

In my opinion, one of the best restaurants in Dortmund !

The meat is very expensive and dry. You really have to like the red filling.

Very snooty, unfriendly staff. I've never had such an unfounded, unfriendly, and snotty experience with waiters. When we came in, my partner and I asked if there was a free seat because we had called ahead and asked. Both employees looked at us and ignored us until one of them, after asking twice, said, "Just anywhere," in a somewhat unfriendly tone, and left. We then sat outside for a while, and when the drinks we wanted with our cigarettes didn't arrive, we wanted to sit inside and talked to the two employees who were standing outside. We asked again if it was okay to go inside and if they could perhaps take the light with us. He looked at us. There was no smile, and he first said to my partner, "I don't understand what you want from me now," and when he repeated himself and the situation was already a bit tense for him, the waiter said. Yes, they do have a candle in there. Afterwards, we ordered drinks, which, by the way, only arrived after two requests and an hour of waiting. Incidentally, I wanted to order a drink that apparently wasn't available in the restaurant, and I wasn't told that either. Everything was written down, and after an hour, when I asked again where the drinks were, he didn't say anything. He looked me straight in the face and said that the drink wasn't available at all. He asked again about all the drinks we'd ordered because he couldn't remember. When we wanted to order our steaks, the other waiter came over. The one who had initially been standing with the one who had already said so rudely, "Anywhere," when we asked for a free seat. And it started with his greeting. He acted like he was the greatest. We asked him several times for a recommendation and told him it was our first time there, and he kept beating around the bush, trying to belittle my partner and talk down to him. He treated us warmly, like the greatest steak expert, and simply made us feel like we didn't belong there at all, and I must say, we're a pretty good-looking couple.^^ The whole situation was just very uncomfortable and inappropriate, in our opinion. We've never experienced anything like this before. The steak was very tasty, but the rest, like the salad and the fries, looked more lifeless than at the last snack. The fries tasted like they'd been fried in old grease. We've always known that hospitality should come first, and you might even offer guests something as an appetizer beforehand, like some bread and olive oil or a small salad, but that varies from restaurant to restaurant. In my opinion, only one waiter was really friendly, and that was the gentleman who, I think, was of Russian origin. Although, as I said, the ambiance and the steak itself were really good. If we're very unlikely to come back, unfortunately.

Simply ridiculous; I have no idea why so many people love this place. The Bernaise sauce came from a packet. The waiter thought it was perfectly normal and emphasized that it was from Lucullus, as if that would make it better. This stuff was also poured over the snail appetizer. The meat was OK, but nothing special. Eating there once was enough for me, considering the price, it's a disgrace.

We only wanted to stay at the rodizio for about 30 minutes and have a drink, but not anything to eat, and we spontaneously dropped in since we were nearby. The waiter then informed us that we weren't welcome, but only if we also ordered something to eat. He then asked his manager, who then told us (even though she was standing 2 meters away from us) that we had to leave because guests who only wanted to drink but didn't eat were unwelcome. Even with a bit of decency and respect, the owner and the person in question could have said that. Well, the place was fairly empty, and there were plenty of free tables outside. We just wanted to have a cozy Coke and chat. Of course, we'll never go back to a place like that. If we were sent away like that, we certainly won't come back, even if we wanted to eat steak. You made a great impression 👍🏻

Not exactly cheap, but worth every euro

Very tasty and very nice service

Excellent steaks. Comfortable seating. Amazing ambience.

Absolutely recommendable, top ambience in the restaurant, great dishes, friendly staff, I will gladly eat here again

They haven't had a rodizio in years. A total disappointment. I paid almost €250, and we had to return the steaks twice; they were raw, even though we ordered them medium.

Once upon a time WOW, now the taste has changed a lot, I'd better not go into detail!

Today I went to the Rodizio Steakhouse. They offer a wide selection of high-quality meat dishes. It was really good. Everything tastes good here. The only criticism I would have regarding the food is that some dishes contain "flavor enhancers." That's a negative for me personally. The service is friendly, but I would have liked a bit more attention. You had to call the server for every little thing. The ambiance is dark but coolly decorated, which fits the mood.

It's become extremely expensive over the last ten years, but the quality is as high as ever. I'm happy to be there.

Very good steaks. The service was simply excellent. Highly recommended.

Excellent steak, great service. Highly recommended.

The service was first class and our every wish was literally read from our lips.

A fantastic lunch. Near the BVB stadium. Great atmosphere.

The food is excellent, the price/performance ratio is perfectly balanced, but the best part is the service. The ambiance is a mix of rustic and modern. The well-maintained restrooms and the great bar offer everything you need. Highly recommended!

We went there without a reservation. We received a friendly welcome, the service was excellent, and the food was incredibly delicious. A steakhouse I highly recommend.

I'd like to describe the only criticism I have with the help of a little analogy: If someone goes to a pizzeria and orders a pizza, the pizza chef says: "Pizza? No, we don't have any." But you're a pizzeria, right?

Visit on Friday: I was disappointed with my visit. The occasion was actually nice, but a waiter humiliated me for "ordering too much" – in public, with fewer side dishes even though I consciously wanted to eat more. That's not what you expect in a good restaurant, nor as a paying guest. I felt uncomfortable and humiliated by the behavior – and it overshadowed the entire evening. It's a shame, because the food itself was very good. But that's not how you treat guests. I will therefore not visit the restaurant again.

Very tender steak, large portion, atmosphere, super friendly staff, food served quickly

The decor was very dark, but the service was fast and good. Unfortunately, the various steaks weren't as ordered. They were all dry. The side dishes were delicious.

Very tasty, the steaks are prepared to perfection, and the staff is very attentive, only occasionally asking for further requests, even after sitting and chatting for three and a half hours. The interior is nice, but the decor is a bit dark. Outside, the industrial-area ambiance takes some getting used to, but that doesn't detract from the experience.

We had a really good time here for 50€ per person.

We've had the pleasure of spending our team meals with you several times... We would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the entire team, especially dear Fabian, for his attentive and charming service. The Pieper Ladies 🥰

Best I've eaten in a long time if not THE BEST. Took a Rib-eye M/R (300g) which came on a plate that was so hot that the meat was cooked on it, so WOW! Very service-minded staff all the way! If you go to Dortmund you MUST visit this place! I promise you super good food and service. Fresh everywhere. And cool football shirts signed by world famous football players, next to the toilet.

The steakhouse served one of the juiciest and most flavorful Argentinian steaks I've ever eaten. The steak was served with a homemade barbecue sauce—although the meat was so good that I completely forgot about the sauce. The side dishes were solid, like you'd expect from other restaurants, but also very good. The service was excellent, true to the old-school philosophy: the customer is king—something you unfortunately rarely experience these days. The wine, in my case a Primitivo, paired perfectly with the steak and wonderfully rounded off the flavor experience. One small drawback regarding the ambience: It was very rustic, but you still felt comfortable. Conclusion: Despite a small drawback regarding the ambience, I can definitely recommend this steakhouse—especially for true steak lovers. I'd be happy to go back!!!

Unfortunately, it's overpriced for the quality. The service left a lot to be desired until almost all the customers had left. I wouldn't want to be there when the place is packed. The parking situation is a disaster. Luckily, we were invited. We won't be back anytime soon.

Very tasty. Portions are very generous. Perhaps a bit pricey, but the atmosphere is very nice.

We had just returned from the flea market and were hungry. A pleasant atmosphere, a good music selection, very friendly staff, and truly delicious food awaited us on a Sunday at 12 p.m. The only problem was that I'm 50 and didn't have my reading glasses, so the menu, which seemed to be in Arial 3, was annoying. My wife, however, was able to compensate for that...

Very good steak, well prepared, but although the restaurant was below 1/3 of its capacity, the waiting time was too long. More than one hour between entering the restaurant (18:07) and receiving our food (19:13) is too long. I had the impression that the restaurant was understaffed.

Super delicious food, perfectly reasonable prices for a steakhouse, and a good selection of wine and spirits. Service was also excellent; we were asked about our food every few minutes, refilled our glasses, etc.

A truly fantastic restaurant! The service was absolutely top-notch: attentive, friendly, and fast. The price/performance ratio is completely acceptable, especially considering the food: The meat was simply divinely tender, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. You can tell that the food is cooked with quality and passion. I'll be back!

Everything is great, one of my regulars in Dortmund. I can only recommend it to everyone, whether for business or pleasure; it's always a wonderful experience.

A thoroughly successful evening! The four of us went to the Rodizio Steakhouse in Dortmund today – and we were all absolutely thrilled! The atmosphere was fantastic: stylish, relaxed, and lively at the same time. You immediately feel at home. The steak was simply a dream – 10/10, we couldn't have asked for anything better. Nothing was lacking: super friendly service, a great selection, and excellent quality. We'll definitely be back – an absolute recommendation for anyone who appreciates good food and a special ambiance!

Everything was top-notch again, and we especially loved the parking space right in front of the door ;-) We'll be happy to come back. Jürgens and Schwinn

I've been to this steakhouse several times now and have been impressed every time. The steaks are cooked to perfection – crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. You can immediately tell that they use high-quality meat. The side dishes and sauces are also top-notch – especially the homemade peppercorn sauce and the sweet potato fries are a dream. The service was always friendly, attentive, and competent, without being intrusive. The ambiance is stylish, cozy, and ideal for a relaxed evening for two or with friends. If you're looking for a true steak experience, this is the place for you. I'll definitely be back!

The food and service were good. However, the prices are overpriced. Perhaps this is due to the fact that it's a celebrity restaurant, with several BVB players frequenting the place.

This is a restaurant visit we won't soon forget. The atmosphere is absolutely cool, the waiter is incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food is fantastic. The steaks are cooked to perfection, and the fried potatoes have rarely been so delicious. We will definitely eat there again.

It's a very nice restaurant, large, and offers plenty of space for a birthday party, for example. The food was good, but my ribs were undercooked.

Some of the best food I've ever had. Great service with extremely attentive staff.

Yes, the food was good and the staff was friendly and competent

Carne di ottima qualità forse un caro. Location molto caratteristica, il cameriere ci ha consigliato bene. Torneremo

Hier wird man von der ersten bis zur letzten Minute mit außergewöhnlicher Freundlichkeit versorgt. Das Essen ist ein Traum. Vor oder nach einem Spiel im fussläufig erreichbaren Stadion vom BVB eine gute Idee in diesen Restaurant einzukehren. Speis & Trank sind ein Genuss und merklich von waschechten Italienern zubereitet.

The taste sensations that one experiences at Rodizio are worth everything. Everything here definitely says yes. To recommend it to another person. Say yes, go there, it's worth it. Because it's really worth it. 100% quality

The steak was okay, but unfortunately we were served the most expensive red wine I've ever drunk - and it was really disappointing. The wine was completely over-aerated and only tasted sour and bitter. The service also left a lot to be desired: we had to wait a long time before anyone came to us. Overall a rather disappointing experience. Really a shame.

Not for Hartzer the shop that cattle hate. Four of us were there last night. Food is not wrong. Beer Starnberger Hell personally didn't convince me in terms of taste. Service not friendly, not unfriendly, but ok. Toilets only partially clean. All in all, I would go again. But it's not the Ritz either. It's ok. Kammamamake.

Good food, attentive service, good atmosphere and the prices are really okay. We're there often. It is my husband's favorite restaurant. Recommended!

Very tasty. I'd gladly go again.

Everything was wonderful, highly recommended!

Dies war unser 3. Besuch in diesem Restaurant, aber mit Sicherheit auch der letzte. Wir hatten reserviert, aber leider wurde uns nicht gesagt, dass an Ostern nur eine gekürzte Karte vorhanden ist. Da ich kein Fleisch esse, blieb mir nun nur der Lachs. Das war schon mal sehr schade. Der Kellner war äußerst unfreundlich und meine Nachfrage nach den sonst vorhandenen Calamaris wurde sofort äußerst barsch abgeschmettert. Eigentlich hätten wir da schon gehen sollen…. Meine Schwiegermutter entschied sich dann für die Vorspeisenscampis, die für den Preis ein absoluter Witz waren. Der Lachs war in Ordnung, aber der Steakteller meines Mannes war qualitativ wirklich schlecht. Als es dann ans Zahlen ging, wurde der Kellner plötzlich freundlicher und rang sich sogar ein Lächeln ab, welches aber ganz schnell wieder verschwand, als er nur 3,80 € Trinkgeld bekam.😂😂 Somit haben wir das Kapitel Rodizio für uns ad acta gelegt.

We ate at Rodizio for the first time today. There were enough parking spaces available for Easter Sunday. Very nice atmosphere Very nice and courteous waiters. While we were still ordering the food, the drinks arrived. Food was also served relatively quickly. The meat was of excellent quality and taste. Side dishes were also 1a. All in all really great!

The restaurant was once again very busy. This is not least due to the consistently very good quality. We got a perfect steak with equally perfect side dishes. The service was excellent, nice, friendly and always a smile. All in all, it was a perfect meal with excellent service.

Simply top 👍🏼… Great service… Great food

Zum Teil merkwürdige Kombinationen auf der Karte. Gemüse überhaupt nicht saisonal (TK). Fleischqualität gut, Atmosphäre etwas chaotisch. Total daneben ein fast ausschließlich grüner Beilagensalat, der für die Qualität VIEL zu teuer ist.

Mediocre food, we are no longer thrilled as we once were. Unfortunately, Steak Rodizio (all you can eat) is no longer available either. Too bad

Lunch menus inexpensive and delicious. Drinks are relatively expensive though.

Great steakhouse, always a pleasure 😋

Steaks are great, even if the price is high, but you get something for it. Nice atmosphere, service was ok too. Anyone who likes meat is in good hands here. Recommendation!

Mega. As always. 100% consistent

Nice atmosphere, food is very good and really friendly staff! Be sure to reserve!!! 5 ⭐️!

Unfortunately, my medium-rare rump steak was raw. After complaining, it came back hard on the outside and half-raw on the inside, and was smothered in gravy. My feedback to the waiter: "The fried potatoes were delicious." That was it, no further reaction. Still, I had a great time with my girls!

Food was good but I've had better. Unfortunately, the service is completely incompetent. You wait more than 15 minutes for drinks to be taken and you are not asked in between whether you would like to drink anything else (the glasses had been empty for more than 20 minutes and given the small amount of drink (0.2l) of cola, I would have expected that people would ask more often). Instead, the waiters converse privately with other guests in Polish. I think it's a real shame because the restaurant itself made a good impression both in terms of the ambience and the food.

Was very good. Service good, atmosphere good. Food good.

A very good steakhouse in Dortmund. The friendly staff responds to the individual wishes of the guests. In the rustic atmosphere you can spend a few nice hours with good food. The quality of the individual dishes is also very good. I can highly recommend the Rodizio steakhouse.

Unfortunately, the steak went back several times because the doneness was not met. Service takes far too long for everything.

The lunch menu is extremely cheap. The portions are large. The meat was very tasty and delicious. Point fried. The service is top. 👍. The atmosphere is cozy and the toilets are clean. I will definitely eat there again.

Top service, nice waiter! Made sure I got my sauce in a gravy boat! (Fortunately) Béarnaise sauce tasted like store-bought hollandaise sauce with minimal herbs mixed in. In any case, unfortunately it didn't taste homemade. Steak perfect (300g) medium 👍 Herb butter for the steak was unfortunately frozen, completely inappropriate and impractical for the price (also with my father)! According to the menu, fried potatoes with bacon, no bacon in my fried potatoes. Pan-fried vegetables were okay, relatively fatty and about 80% zucchini. Well, at over €50 per person there should probably be better quality. Update, unfortunately had to be reduced to one star. When we arrived, a couple was brought to their table in front of us and the service employee saw us. After he brought the guests to their seats, he walked around a few tables and did something (take orders or ask about their well-being, etc.). Meanwhile, 2 service staff stood behind the Baar and kept about 2-3 people in sight. Not particularly bad but not pleasant either. The sanitary facilities were not particularly clean; everything is visible because of the black color. Somehow this review left me uneasy, hence the update.

Absolutely recommended, the service is consistently first class, always responds to my wishes, apart from that, absolutely attractive and personable. The eye eats with you😅

Completely satisfied. Good service, very tasty food. Recommendation.

Food and the ambience were very good. The waiter and service were also very good. The only drawback was that you couldn't pay with Amex. Given the price range and level, this shouldn't actually be the case.

A highlight every time at every family birthday party

Good quality and cool concept! Unfortunately the air in the restaurant wasn't that good

Food as always very good. The special feature is the spinach, you just have to try it. Meat fried to perfection.

Excellent service and pretty good food👌

Nice place Expensive however quality of meat is here!

Great place to eat before the game

Tip top everything was great. Starter and steak tasted very good

Service top, food simply out of this world

I've been to the Rodizio every now and then for years, it was always something special. Unfortunately, the last visit wasn't so nice. The restaurant wasn't half full and the reception wasn't staffed. The lady who normally staffs it could be seen in the back of the restaurant, deep in conversation, but also making eye contact towards the entrance. Where we stood and waited. Well, after a few minutes the lady came because the line behind us was slowly getting longer. You could actually ignore this thing if the rest had been okay. It's a shame that the Rodizio event no longer exists. But on the evening we were there, unfortunately the chef was probably newly in love. All the food we got was very salty. Unfortunately, the fries weren't edible at all... Unfortunately, it was as if they were soaked in fat, which was a shame. The minced steak was completely unpleasant, I don't know exactly what the chef tried to cook that evening, unfortunately he didn't succeed. The tomato soup and the goulash soup were too salty, Also add salt to the fried potatoes and the spinach. As I have already visited the restaurant several times, I can assure you that this result was by far the worst. This time I would even go so far as to say that the food would have been cooked better in my own kitchen. Unfortunately I can only say that this visit was our last visit. The passion and whistle that this restaurant once had as an insider tip is missing. Very unfortunate

6:30 p.m. The location was too dark; According to the waiter, we should use the flashlights on our cell phones to read the menu, which was very dark, almost black. The steak, which was baked with cheese, tasted good, but we had to put the cheese aside because it really wasn't edible. He looked like a bacon rind. Both of our plates were so broken and chipped that I was afraid to even eat them. The small bowl that the cheese was in was also broken. According to the waiter, it is normal for the plates to be broken; except the bowl, that shouldn't be, he said. The cheese the meat was baked with was supposedly Gouda... supposedly. The waiter then said that if I came back to eat here, I should say that I wanted a clean plate... laugh laugh laugh... So to be honest and direct... I'm definitely used to a better and, above all, cleaner atmosphere and, above all, I get my food on plates that are clean. To the toilets…sticky floor, worn out toilet seat… In summary, we won't eat there again.

A lovely evening in a lovely setting with very good food.

Certainly not the cheapest restaurant in Dortmund, but it's hard to beat in terms of quality and service. Steak hit straight to doneness (rare comes on a hot plate). The side dishes and starters are also super delicious (whether soup or snails)! It's a shame that I'm not in the region too often.

Very nice atmosphere and good service. Food very good😎We'll be back😎

Ambiente,Essen und vorallem das Personal waren großartig. Heute am Valentinstag waren sehr viele Paare da. Es wurde extra romantische Musik gespielt. Die Atmosphäre war sehr schön.

Great food, attentive service and a very good atmosphere - it couldn't be better

The price is clearly higher, but the quality of the meat is also very good. The side dishes can't quite keep up, but they're also ok. The ambience is good, but sometimes loud and noisy. All in all a lovely evening and recommended.

Always top for 10 years!!!!! Steaks and side dishes always Great roast and taste!!

So - the good reviews are incomprehensible to us (four of us were here today). The steaks were mediocre, unfortunately the degree of doneness wasn't right at all. The service... which service? It was an experience that we would have liked to have missed. We are used to other steak houses (better and cheaper)…. Too bad...

Positive: The service was friendly, but didn't ask for more drinks, so it was just a cola (0.2 for €3.80) The ambience is stylishly furnished, but kept very dark. On the “couch” it wasn’t tasty, everything was full of crumbs and leftover food. It would be nice to vacuum or wipe it off The food was tasty, but nothing special. Fries are just fries and the other side dishes are nothing special either. I doubt whether the meat reaches the number of grams offered, but I can't refute it. The prices are extremely high. The store hasn't been this outstanding since the Rodizio menu is no longer available.

The steak was perfect, but the price was not. I had the sweet potato fries as a side dish and unfortunately they tasted like pure fat. For such a high-priced restaurant, this was a bit disappointing. However, the meat and the ambience are absolutely top notch. But the parking situation is a disaster.

Unfortunately, there now seems to be an extra ticket for BVB games with extra prices. In my opinion it was completely excessive, so unfortunately we won't be coming back. It's a shame actually.

We spontaneously went to eat here after the fair. The ambience is great! The service is excellent and fast! The quality of the food was also perfect! We'd love to come back next time!

We are regular guests at the steakhouse and feel very comfortable there. There are only two little things that are annoying and could be easily remedied. The first thing is cold plates. You get great steaks and it's just a shame that the last bites are just cold since the steaks are served on cold plates. You can order the cooking level medium-rare and then get a piping hot plate on which the meat continues to fry, but in my opinion that can't be the case if you just want a medium-rare steak and a warm piece of meat for as long as possible want to enjoy. The second point concerns the pieces of meat that are carved at the table by the waiters. Why are the slices placed on napkins that soak up the delicious meat juice? That's too bad. Otherwise a great restaurant that is absolutely worth a visit.

We celebrated a birthday here with several people and were invited here. Our expectations were absolutely met. The reception and service were absolutely impeccable. When we asked for advice, we were shown different types of meat at the table and told something about their origins. We all chose steak and capriccio and burrata as starters. The steak was a 300g ribeye, which was grilled to perfection - perfect. The American cheesecake was recommended as dessert, which is also recommended. The decor is very special and not everyday - and I really liked it, it's not mainstream. If possible, you should keep an eye on BVB's game schedule, as this will lead to increased traffic and the journey and search for a parking space can take a little longer. It's definitely not the last time we've eaten here. A clear recommendation when it comes to steaks!

3 stars for the very good steaks. Otherwise the visit was unfortunately not convincing. Reserved 6 weeks in advance and then received a very cramped table right in front of the toilet/kitchen. The bell rang every 2 minutes and you also sat on the approach path to the toilet. Unfortunately, service otherwise left a lot to be desired. No questions were asked about the main course and empty glasses were overlooked. The drink replenishment is correspondingly slow.

The food was great, the steak was perfect, the combination of vegetables and fried potatoes was perfect, and the taste was a highlight.
