Tante Maja in Saarbrücken

We have been there several times with a larger group and everyone was satisfied. Very tasty, fresh food, good portions and very good taste.

Great food, good ambiance and very nice staff. Highly recommended. Just book earlier, as tables are limited. Small comment for improvement, if the seats can be brought closer, people would be able to speak quieter and hear each other better. (Facing 2 seats tables are 1.2 meters long.)

Very good food. We've eaten here a few times. Even with a larger group, around 15 people. Everything went well and tasted good.

I was there with my family for dinner on December 25th. The ambience, the service and also the food were good. Unfortunately, all but one of us had food poisoning afterwards. This was a very bad experience and I absolutely cannot recommend it when it comes to pasta, especially for the price.

Friendly service, good food at reasonable prices, cozy atmosphere.

First of all, the food tasted great 😋 The tables stuck. No information about ingredients could be provided. All in all, an average restaurant.

Very tasty, but the potatoes would have taken a little longer, but the salmon steak tore it out and therefore still five stars.😅 I ate a really great steak, I can highly recommend Steak Maya and Thursday is steak day 😃. 5 stars for that.

A good restaurant with a great ambience. There were four of us, we had 4 different dishes and we were all more than satisfied. The service was also very friendly. Tables should definitely be booked, but it is only possible every 2 hours, which is more than enough. Gladly again.

Nice restaurant, prices are okay. The taste of the food matches the price. However, if you want to eat and have a conversation, you shouldn't get a table downstairs. You can't say anything negative about the service.

A bit disappointed, the price performance is not right. Small Jägerschnitzel, 3-4 mushrooms in the sauce, a few fries, no salad, not very lovingly served. Too bad.

Super delicious food! The prices aren't exactly low, but the portions are reasonable. The service was very hardworking and attentive, there is nothing to complain about here. All in all, a really satisfying visit! What you could complain about (but that's complaining at a high level): the tables are quite close together. But that's because of the building and so you might be able to talk to others.

Price-performance is very important here! And always great changing food offers in addition to the menu.

My place in Saarbrücken for excellent, super friendly service and fantastic food in a cozy atmosphere. There's nothing else that matters to me!!!

Nice little shop with very good food

Cozy pub with well-kept beer freshly tapped. Staff very nice

Super nice inside, great and delicious food at fair prices, would love to come back! Highly recommended!

Great ambience on the upper floor

I visited the restaurant on the first weekend of Advent. It was very busy because of the Christmas market. We had reserved and were able to sit in the very cozy room on the first floor. The service was very friendly and professional. We ordered from the seasonal menu. The food was very good and was served quickly. The prices were also acceptable. We will definitely come back.

Take the window seats upstairs, you'll get a nice view overlooking the Christmas market. Simple and good food, not too many options to be confused.

The salads were, as always, delicious.

Overall really nice, staff is nice, I just think it's a bit dark there and my salad had way too much dressing.

Very cozy and super friendly staff. Gladly again!

A wonderful establishment with very attentive and charismatic waiters. I haven’t tried the dishes yet, mostly we go with friends to drink wine. Love the vibe of this place

The food was good, the fried potatoes are particularly recommended. The service is super friendly. It might be a bit noisy when it's full, but it still has a nice atmosphere. Gladly again

Sat on the terrace for a nice sunny lunch. The service was excellent. We tried many entrees and the were all great. The prices were very reasonable. Will definitely go again

Very good cuisine. Copious plates. Very welcoming staff

Pleasant café-restaurant located on the St Johan market. Good food and friendly service, what more could you ask for?

Totally delicious. Service was great with a few exceptions.

On Saturday morning, watching the market from the second floor, we were able to enjoy a varied and delicious breakfast. The lady from the service was cooperative, structured, courteous and quick. The price-performance ratio is reasonable. The toilets are also on the 2nd floor.

Friendly staff, good food and nice ambience. Here you can start the evening relaxed.

It's been a long time since I've had such a delicious rump steak. The creation with sheep's cheese crust and baldamico sauce was completely to my taste. The waitresses were all very friendly and attentive. You can have a good time here in a cozy atmosphere. It makes sense to reserve in advance, otherwise there could be waiting times. The next day I had the Mexico salad. Extremely tasty and plentiful, I couldn't finish it all.

Absolutely recommended 😊 Super tasty, and very reasonably priced!

Delicious. Staff very friendly!!

Essen: Das Essen war sehr gut, sowohl Fleisch als auch die Vegetarischen Gerichte sind sehr lecker Ambiente: Innen hat man ein schönes, gemütliches, rustikales Ambiente. Außen sitzt man mittem im Trubel des St.Johanner Marktes, was durchaus seinen Charme hat. Service: Trotz starken Besuche wurden wir relativ schnell bedient und das Essen kam sehr schnell Preis: Es ist nicht günstig, sondern eher gehobene Preisklasse.

If you value good and friendly service, this is the place for you. The prices are absolutely reasonable for the portion sizes and above all: IT TASTES! If you like to watch people strolling in the summer (or with a thick jacket in the cooler seasons), the outdoor area is the perfect place to sit and you can see the entire St. Johann market. I always like to come back and recommend the restaurant with a clear conscience!

Completely overpriced. The 200g schnitzels come for €20 without additional salad and are absolutely average (e.g. with the cream sauce). There is also a small amount of bland garnish. It's actually great for drinking there.

Pleasantly surprised. Food was good and the service too

Food and drinks are very good. The cocktails are highly recommended. The atmosphere is rustic, the service is great. My recommendation: Monday is schnitzel day.

Nice food Friendly service, very good quality, reasonable prices

Great for the nightcap afterwards!!

Very nice old-established shop... Good food, very nice attentive staff... we like coming here

Delicious food, nice staff... I will go there again.

Very nice restaurant, food also very tasty

Very nice evening on the market square. The service was very attentive and courteous. The food (meat dish) was very tasty, the large salad could be a little bigger for the price. All in all, highly recommended.

Nice coffee, good scrambled eggs

I had lunch at Maya's today. I just have to say a lot of praise now. The staff is just delightful and so friendly. My meal, salmon with potatoes and spinach salad, was a poem. The ambience of the store is warm and cozy. Thanks to all of you for this wonderful lunch.

But the toilet leaves so much to be desired

Die Qualität der Speisen war ungenügend. Das Rahmschnitzel (Fertigschnitzel frittiert) war trocken und die Soße leicht säuerlich. Das Wiener Schnitzel war ebenfalls trocken und zäh. Der Feldsalat in der Joghurtsoße ertrunken. Zum Speck im Salat: Wer sucht der findet. Bei zurückgebenen fast vollen Tellern interessierte man sich auch nicht dafür ob es geschmeckt hat. Fazit: Wir werden keine Wiederholungstäter

Poor reception, staff not child friendly, but the worst thing was when I asked for my bill just after I had paid. They couldn't give it to me because it was no longer in the register. Is that even possible and legal? Suddenly the team was quite aggressive. :(

Schlechter Empfang, Personal nicht Kinderfreundlich, aber das schlimmste war noch, als ich meine Rechnung gefragt habe, gerade nachdem ich bezahlt hatte. Sie konnten es mir nicht geben, da es nicht mehr in der Kasse war. Ist das überhaupt möglich und legal ? Auf einmal war das Team ziemlich aggressiv. :(

Great restaurant right on the St. Johanner Markt in Saarbrücken. Delicious food and friendly service.

Delicious food for a good price. Beautiful outside terrace.

We spent 10 days in Saarbrücken to get to know the Saarland, the French and Luxembourg surrounding areas. We visited this restaurant three times in 10 days. ... I think that says it all. We would like to have a restaurant like this in Schwerin / Mecklenburg. It was a culinary tour.

Just bad. Apart from the location and the nice places in the sun, the restaurant has nothing to offer. 20€ for a frozen schnitzel with ready-made Maggi mushroom sauce. €7.50 for a water - as if you were in a high-class restaurant. You probably only pay because you can sit in the city center. When asked for feedback, the response was unprofessional and embarrassingly rejected. Never again!

cozy restaurant with German-French flair. Nice service, great food, good wine. I'm a regular at Tante Maja

Food was ok. But the waiter could be a little more friendly

Service does not proactively come to the guests, long waiting times

Not very pleasant service, poor food, I recommend other places

Schöner Name für ein unkompliziertes Restaurant Café in sehr guter Lage. Freundlicher Service, gute Auswahl an Speisen und Getränken. Nudeln und Gebackener Feta mit Lillet und Aperol - sehr lecker und zum guten Preis-/ Leistungsverhältnis. Vielen Dank

It's very nice to sit there with a view of the St. Johann market. The food was okay, the service was a bit unfriendly.

I'm always impressed by how nice and attentive the staff are, even when it's really busy

Drinks full of ice and unfortunately incredibly overpriced. Not worth a visit. Here you are more than just ripped off.

2 people for lunch. Fried potatoes with beef salad, dumplings with goulash. 👍Highly recommended

Sirloin steak tough fries cold! Not recommendable!!

Very nice atmosphere and very good food! I always enjoy coming here😊

Very nice staff. With the expansion of seating to the middle of the St. Johanner Markt, good seating is also available. Very good! The food is good. I would particularly like to highlight the salads. Keep it up! The selection of food offers something for every taste. The drinks list is also good. So just enjoy a nice, cozy evening.

We'd love to come back. Super friendly staff. Food arrives quickly and tastes really great

We discovered the restaurant by chance and luckily got a seat outside. The food was good and the service was friendly.

Sharif saved my evening! On a beautiful summer evening when I wanted to enjoy the last rays of sunshine, I treated myself to a glass of rosé at Tante Maja. After a sip I realized that the wine unfortunately contained too much acid for me. It gives me heartburn. I told the waiter this immediately. He contacted the shift manager about this and offered me to make a spritzer with either sparkling water or Sprite out of the wine. That wasn't a solution for me because it ultimately doesn't take the acid out of the wine. I was disappointed that I wasn't treated with more understanding and wanted to pay and leave. I would never have gone to this restaurant again. The other waiter, Sharif, noticed this and said he couldn't let it go. I told him he couldn't help it. I wanted to go. He said he would find a solution. I didn't want it to be at his expense. Finally, Sharif brought me the other rosé to try. I didn't like this one. I told Sharif that he was really an excellent waiter because he responded to my requests without any ifs or buts. And when I go out to eat or drink something, I expect the “experience” to be good all around. But Sharif didn't give up! He asked me what drink he could bring me. All's well that ends well. I found a very fine Pinot Gris and enjoyed the best service ever and the good atmosphere. Thank you, Sharif! You saved my evening and I'll be happy to come back to Aunt Maja's when you're there :-)

We ate here based on the many good comments. However, upon arrival the service was very unfriendly! Disinterested, curt, grumpy. We thought he was having a bad day, but his colleague was the same!!! To top it all off, we saw that the waiter was drinking quite a bit. As a result, he became less and less sharp (dropped glass and kicked a chair to get it behind the table). ). Food was decent, but it took almost an hour to be served. We are normally not complainers, but this experience was really too bizarre not to write a review.

Today I was at the Tante Maja restaurant in Saarbrücken and enjoyed the schnitzel day. Each schnitzel was available for €16.60, which is a great deal. The schnitzels were excellently prepared, juicy and well seasoned. The homemade iced teas are also particularly delicious and offer a refreshing complement to the meal. The service was friendly and attentive, the atmosphere cozy and inviting. You immediately feel comfortable and in good hands. Children's portions are prepared upon request and every request is treated with great care. We had, among other things, cream schnitzel with fries, spaghetti Bolognese in a children's portion and the homemade style schnitzel. The breading was perfect, the fries were delicious and crispy. A big plus point for the freshness of the food: the schnitzels are only beaten and breaded when ordered. The restaurant offers a nice selection of dishes, all freshly prepared with love. A visit to Aunt Maja's is definitely worth it, especially on schnitzel day!

Nice restaurant in the middle of the St.Johanner Markt

In the heart of the old town, good Saar cuisine, but also varied cuisine, mixed salads, very good steaks, friendly atmosphere and staff, terrace, everything you need to enjoy the moment

Today I went to dinner at Aunt Maya's. I chose a dish from the daily menu, which was only posted on boards in the restaurant. The food quality was very good.

Always worth a visit. Good food, nice ambience and the service is good. Right in the city center of Saarbrücken.b

Very nicely located, we had already tried a lot of things here and the steaks are very good. Our favorite, rump steak Maja with sheep's cheese crust and balsamic vinegar. Very attentive staff.

A cozy restaurant in Saarbrücken's old town. Delicious food and a cozy atmosphere simply belong here. The salads are highly recommended. We'll definitely come back

Great place to see what's going on at the market.

Of course everything will be more expensive in 2024, but ideally only three stars, because in my opinion the prices have risen significantly and the quality has declined. Maybe this time I would be unlucky and the chef would have a bad day. For me, it's no longer my favorite restaurant at St. Johanner Markt

So we've been there at least 10 times now and there's never been anything major to complain about. Yesterday, however, that was different. I had a Swiss-style sausage salad. The fact that the sausage isn't hand-cut doesn't cause me any problems, but I find the fact that you can't cut 3 slices of cheese by hand but simply sprinkle grated cheese on top very weak considering the price! Mine As always, my partner had pasta, which was good as usual.

Very tasty food. Friendly service. Nice outdoor seating.

Cozy restaurant located on the St. Johanner Markt. We only enjoyed a cappuccino. Friendly staff.

Super great atmosphere and good food. Service was top and the food was extremely tasty. We had a pleasant evening and will definitely come back.

Delicious, tasty food, apparently freshly prepared. Highly recommended

Unfortunately disappointed - there were old potatoes that had been warmed up several times on the salad and brown leaves... The espresso that was promised as compensation never arrived...

Good food, very unfriendly service

Nice atmosphere, the food was delicious, the waitresses were nice, only the blonde waitress behind the counter was unfriendly and arrogant...

Food very good, service friendly, toilets clean. The portions are too big for older people, unfortunately we couldn't accommodate the request for a small or half portion, it was simply too busy to accommodate special requests. Outdoor tables are hard to come by, the restaurant is very popular.

Das Essen entsprach genau dem was wir bestellt haben. Es war richtig gut. Die Bedienung war äußerst nett und flott. Wir waren rundum zufrieden mit Holzfällersteak und Lachsforelle.

Nice service. Food came super quickly. Everything perfect

Very good cuisine and the service was also good.

Nice service and good food in a very cozy atmosphere. Everything really went well during our visit. We recommend!!!

0.4 beer for 4.80 euros. In Zweibrücken it costs 3 euros

Really nice and cozy place where you can get traditional german cuisine and, of course, German beer. Everything is really tasty, with great service.

Cozy place in the heart of Saarbruken. 1st floor elegantly decorated with flowers on the tables. All the plates we ordered were very tasty. The service was excellent. In case I find myself in area I will definitely visit this place again.

I like sitting at the market, I find the conditions to be all friendly and attentive and the food is super good!

We really enjoy coming here to eat! Always delicious and the staff are in a good mood:)

The service was courteous, friendly and helpful. The quality of the food was very good. We had a very comfortable table on the upper floor, with a great view over the St. Johanner Markt. My guests and I were very satisfied and found this evening to be a complete success. Lovely again!

Sehr leckeres Essen, große Portionen, war den Preis definitiv wert. Sehr freundliches Personal aber zum Zeitpunkt unseres Aufenthaltes sehr besucht (spricht für sich) und dadurch fast zu laut, aber dafür kann Tabte Maja ja nix! Kommen definitiv wieder . Tip: reservieren!

It was a beautiful sunny evening. We found a nice and relatively quiet spot outside with a view of the evening hustle and bustle on the square. The service staff were friendly, attentive and quick. The food tasted great and was good value for money. I look forward to my next visit there.
