The Small Steakhouse in Köln

Highly recommended, as it's right in the city center, especially after a long shopping spree. They serve not only steaks but also fish and delicious salads. The service is excellent. 👍👍. Nice atmosphere, and, as mentioned, everything is within easy walking distance. Just a few steps from the cathedral and the main train station. The only downside is the cramped restrooms.

Great service and delicious food. Always my pleasure.

Is the best steakhouse have been at recently. 1st time was in March, everything was perfect. Some time later a colleague asked "Tell me a goodnl restaurant to visit" I was surprised and said that "good" means different for people. She said- a place you would like to visit again...I said is the small steakhouse in Cologne. Today I visited it again.

Food is very good, nice staff, ambience was good, air-conditioned, price-performance ratio is good,

Very good food, fast and friendly service. Nice atmosphere and decor.

Delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere and great staff

Super delicious food, attentive service, good quality meat—all in all, very good! We'll be coming back more often 👍🏼

We come from Lohmar to Cologne city center about three or four times a year to shop, and "Das kleine Steakhaus" is a must! The food is always delicious, the service is always friendly, and we're always completely satisfied.

Cozy and good, as always. Steak and more is delicious. Very cozy there. All the staff were customer-friendly and very attentive. One thing to note: don't drown the salad in the dressing; less is more. That's the only criticism, otherwise it's top-notch.👍👍👍👍

Everything was perfect. No long waits, a beautiful location, delicious food, and the highlight: we were served by probably the nicest waiter in all of Cologne!

If you're looking for great food in Cologne, this is the place for you. I highly recommend it.

Very good food, very good service, would come back anytime!

Very good food. Thanks to the superb kitchen.

We had the beef medallions, the vegan burger, and a cheeseburger. It was absolutely delicious. Shaip's service was truly excellent. I definitely recommend this little steakhouse. Thank you.

Based on a recommendation, we experienced a wonderful restaurant with fantastic cuisine. Warmth and product quality are paramount. We would never have believed something like this was possible on Hohestrasse in Cologne. Another highlight is the open kitchen and the value for money. Simply an experience and definitely worth another visit.👍

Nine of us showed up spontaneously, and they pushed us together to seat us. The service was super friendly and the food was delicious! Everyone found something they liked. I highly recommend it, and the prices were reasonable, too.

Highly recommended. All the chain restaurants, whose names I don't want to mention, don't stand a chance against this small steakhouse. I'm a trained chain restaurant expert myself and have been working with steaks for years. Everything is just perfect here. Everything is super delicious, and the prices are almost too reasonable. Top!

I've walked past it hungry several times, but the timing was never right. Now, at lunchtime, it finally arrived, and it worked out. The restaurant was busy, but we got a table without any problems, and the service was prompt and attentive throughout. Depending on the dish, the prices are certainly on the higher side, but in my opinion, the value for money is good. We were more than satisfied for a reasonable price, and it was definitely delicious. We'd love to come back...time permitting 😉

Good steak and good service in the middle of the city, easy to reach on foot!

This was our first time eating at this steakhouse and we have nothing negative to say. But the second time we went, just wanting a drink, we were turned away even though the restaurant was empty. We were in Cologne as tourists and will definitely not go there again.

Exceptionally good and definitely worth the money! I like that there are both set menus and the option to mix and match everything, choosing the piece, side dish, and sauce yourself.

Incredibly delicious food and an all-around wonderful experience! The super attentive service is particularly noteworthy – friendly, fast, and very attentive. I highly recommend Das kleine Steakhouse and will definitely be back!

Service desert with side salad The food was okay, but the service – a true masterpiece of indifference. White wine is simply served without asking which one, the steak is cooked to perfection without asking, and there's no interest in the guests. Three waiters, all deeply engrossed in their cell phones. Not once in three hours were we asked if everything was okay. Instead, the noise of constant chairs being moved, as if we were in a furniture warehouse. We definitely won't be back – but if you like being ignored, this is the place for you.

Very friendly Excellent value for money Highly recommended

Very tasty steaks and excellent service. The only downside is that the furniture is a bit dated. But this is about the food. There's nothing to complain about. I'd happily go back anytime.

Delicious food and friendly service, we can only recommend it!

Highly recommended. Simply fantastic. The food, service, and atmosphere are fantastic. We honestly weren't expecting this, as kebabs usually reign supreme in this area. So, thank you again for the time we were allowed to spend with you.

Once again, very, very delicious👍 You receive a friendly welcome and the service is very attentive. The food is excellent. We'll be back! Thank you🌞

We've been visiting this small steakhouse for many years now; the food is always great, both then and now.

Checked out this steakhouse in Cologne when we were there. Fantastic steak and wonderful service! Other than the loud bangs when main door slams closed, ambience was great. Food is really good! Thanks 👍

We came here from Baden-Württemberg just for the rump steak, as we haven't found anything as good yet.

very fair prices. I really enjoyed the food and it arrived super quickly. From this you can of course conclude that the food, at least in part, has already been prepared, but that really didn't bother us. The aperol was a bit thin, so I would have liked a little more pizzazz for the price and the atmosphere was a bit busy or everything was relatively "close together" but that didn't bother me either, which is of course a matter of taste. the tables could be a little cleaner. All in all we were really satisfied and I would come again

A very pleasant restaurant with very tasty food. We ate a steak that tasted really good. We received excellent service and everything went smoothly. Highly recommended!

Reservations should be made for lunch and dinner

Very disappointing, it was our first time there and we ordered salmon fillet and cordon bleu. The cordon bleu came out of the deep fryer and was in there too long - the meat was so dry that you could hardly swallow it. The salmon fillet was also "fried to death" and just as dry. The only bright spot was the fresh vegetables. There are also some dusty, dirty corners in the restaurant.

As always, it was delicious in the small steakhouse. 🤩😋 The restaurant on the 1st floor above the dm in the high street seems rather inconspicuous, but is absolutely worth a visit. There is a great selection of food - even if you are a vegetarian in the steakhouse… My parents' steak and turkey schnitzel must have tasted excellent and my truffle pasta was simply divine, to die for... Always a pleasure - preferably at the window to watch the colorful hustle and bustle on the high streets...

There were three of us and we didn't order much. Our order was noted, but then the rosemary potatoes and pepper cream sauce were missing. But the entrecote beef steaks were delicious and just right, medium rare. Despite the air conditioning, it was quite warm in the restaurant.

Our favorite restaurant in Cologne

Very tasty food for a good price. I was very impressed with the service because I hadn't had such an attentive waiter in a long time - thank you very much and keep it that way!! :)

very accommodating and responded to many special requests

...what kind of waiters are they? They're kind of grim. Just don't ask the wrong question...

Absolutely fantastic experience! The food was awesome, and the service by the staff was truly exceptional—friendly, attentive, and very helpful throughout. The ambiance was pleasant and comfortable, making it a nice setting to enjoy a good meal. We had the king prawns to start, which were fresh and full of flavor. For the mains, we went with the rumsteaks and the entrecôte, both cooked perfectly medium rare—juicy, tender, and packed with taste. We finished with the strawberry cheesecake, which was the perfect sweet ending to a great meal. Every dish was spot on, and the overall experience was top-notch. Highly recommended!

The steak is very good, but I advise you to make sure that the medium rare is not too raw.

We have rarely had such delicious fresh food. The meat was on point. Super recommended!

Essen ist super lecker. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

The meat and service are very good, I definitely recommend it.

Seems to be a very popular steakhouse in the heart of Cologne. I had prawns for starters which were unexciting. A bit overcooked and served plain. The steak was a 300gr Rump that was served with a baked potato and salad. It was a good piece of meat. Cooked well to my liking (medium). I'd give the steak a 9. The salad wasn't good in my opinion. The dressing was aggressive and inedible. The baked potato was decent. It is exploding with butter and cream, and is dominantly sweet from the oven and butter. We didn't have desert. The service was quick, pleasant and to the point. We had local beer with our meal, which I personally liked (dry, bitter, light, German lager).

Wow, they grill the meat to perfection. Simply delicious and melt in your mouth

Good service! Tasty food and very friendly!

Very nice stuff and delicious food

Thank you for the delicious steak. Salads and burgers were great.

Very simple reservation system Extremely friendly welcome and service Starting with the crisp, fresh salad with tasty dressing, over a superbly cooked baked potato, for the perfect steak with excellent Pepper cream sauce, rounded off with a fine crème brûlée and finally the obligatory espresso! Spoiled guest...what more could you want?

One of the best food experiences in Cologne

Delicious dishes and very attentive, friendly waiters 🫶🏻

You can also visit spontaneously without a reservation. Something for everyone.

Good, honest quality! No frills and no false hype. Consistent quality

The Kleine Steakhaus in Cologne offers a cozy atmosphere and friendly service. A positive feature is that dogs are welcome, and a water bowl is provided upon request. The menu is concise, but the quality of the dishes leaves much to be desired: the 400g fillet steak tasted only average, and the pasta with prawns disappointed with poor ingredients and bland seasoning. Furthermore, the prices are unreasonable—a bottle of water for €7 seems overpriced. The central location on Schildergasse lacks charm. Overall, the value for money isn't right, so a return visit isn't planned.

The food wasn't bad for the price. The atmosphere was good and people seemed to flock there. However, the server's attitude was not friendly to the visitor. I didn't even ask about how the meat was cooked. The evaluation is average.

Very nice ambiance and really well-prepared steak. Service is also very friendly!

The food and the service was great. I had the Cordon Bleu and it was very tasty, including the side salad.

The food was very tasty, but your appetite disappears when a mouse is spotted in the restaurant. The waiter saw them, but simply let the guests sit even though the mouse was under the tables.

We had Bordeaux mushrooms as a starter. Super tasty! A steak (ribeye) and a cordon bleu for the main course. Both were cooked to perfection and the portions were fine. The side dishes (baked potatoes and the vegetable platter) were just as tasty and didn't skimp on the quantity either. The service was nice and very professional. Waiting times were moderate despite the high number of guests. We will definitely dine there again.

Very good food, excellent service, reasonable prices

Nice waiters, tasty food and good prices. Come back in 2 weeks. In the middle of the pedestrian zone

Once at the carnival in Cologne there was a challenge with my best friend 🫶, it takes a good foundation 😏 We had a really good meal here and the service was very attentive. We had a wonderful evening together!

Food was okay, waiter was an absolute disaster, totally unfriendly, listless and derogatory. Mayflies on the move. No recommendation

The main course was very tasty, the side dishes unfortunately not so much. Nice, cozy atmosphere, but a lot of very annoying fruit flies…

Highly recommended. Centrally located in the city center and quite inconspicuous as the restaurant is on the 1st floor. But it's really worth a visit, super tasty steak and very nice service. Fair prices. I will definitely come back.

A nice place, the 200g steak was tasty, but not a fan of a boiled potato with sour cream, as a side dish. A bit expensive as well.

Fresh, nice, great service, always happy.

Always nice and friendly today very unfriendly and my mezzo mix tastes more like water than mezzo mix. The bread was only brought after he asked, apparently he had forgotten it and the waiter then corrected him on how to ask for bread Maybe the waiter was having a bad day

Nice little inconspicuous restaurant, very nice accommodating service, meat was great. Vegetables top. Fresh salad.

Very tasty steaks, I especially liked the lamb!

Very tasty food, fast service and pleasant atmosphere.

Short and sweet. A good steakhouse. I had a grill plate that evening. The meat was fried to a perfect medium rare and tasted really good to me. The staff is friendly and helpful. You visit guests regularly and you don't feel neglected. The restaurant is no longer the newest, but everything is very well maintained. If you want a delicious steak, this is definitely the right place for you.

Very tasty, best rump steak 😋 great service

Ordered steak-Spieβ medium rare and it was cooked as i wanted. Very soft and tender. Great combo with baked potato filled with cream. And what a better way to accompany with a Lagavulin 16. Excellent service and fast. Atmosphere as it should be for a proper steak.

Nice steakhouse right in the city center. The service was very friendly and the food was good.👍

When we visit Cologne we like to be here. A little more expensive, but food is good

It's that time again for a few clear words in the restaurant industry! The first impression is always clear and simple. A friendly welcome, a clean table and a menu card. Everything was good so far. After I ordered, I could observe how some waiters were just standing around, like, "I don't have anything to do, I could just take a quick look at my cell phone." Hello?!? That's completely dubious people! You can do this during your break! Your guests want to have a nice evening with you and be pampered. So do your job well. Sorry guys, I went a little off topic. I ordered a “Mixed Grill for €27.90” as you can see in the photo. The portion was very manageable. The beef steak tasted great, nice and juicy. I only specifically requested the herb butter, which should actually always be put on the table with a steak. I also liked the turkey steak or rather a piece of turkey fillet and then a minced steak should please my taste buds and what do my eyes see on my plate?!! Now hold on to your hats: “A Burger Patty”! A bland and unseasoned normal patty is declared as a "steak" and the waiter knows that it has been served for a long time. I found THAT very bold of management to fleece the paying customer's wallet. Then I ask myself, how much did my cola cost if I paid a total of €33.10? A little over €5? Or were those the fries instead of the dry baked potatoes, or the pieces of herb butter that were already packed together from the fridge? There's something wrong with you if you're trying to rip me off. Then make a proper invoice where I can understand everything I'm paying and not a scrapbook that just has a number on it with a little scribble. From now on I will find out what my order looks like before I order it. I'm curious how patient the waiters can be on my next visit. This time I was really very disappointed with the little steak house!! I hope it gets better...

Good steak house, excellent food

Everything was top and definitely recommended!

Extremely basic place with below average food. Soup was served almost cold and burger was simple and not tasty. Table was dirty and radler goes in 0.25 glass...

We just found everything great here! Service, ambience and food are simply great! Very nice and competent service. Thank you, thank you ❤️

Attentive staff, very friendly, we recommend!!!

Very nice restaurant and delicious food

Excellent food in a modern atmosphere

Very tasty, very very friendly staff and prices are also great 🤙🏽💪🏽

This restaurant should not be missed in Cologne!

Really unfriendly chief staffing

Everything was just right, so a clear recommendation

Was very satisfied and would like to come back

Always great... nice service and delicious food. We'll be back.

Sorry but customer service is really bad first forgot the starter salad and then give stupid answers for once!!!!!

The food was very good. The service was very attentive. The price-performance ratio is good

Absolutely top class. Very good food with a lot of choice and very good service. What more could you want? Oh yes, the location is of course great, in the middle of the pedestrian zone. Only recommended.

The service was good. We were greeted warmly and got our food quickly. The ambience was also great. Had a great seat by the window. We had turkey steak with vegetables and grilled potatoes with salad. The steak and vegetables were very tasty. The salad wasn't quite to my taste but OK. Unfortunately, I hardly had any grilled potatoes on my plate. It was already wrapped and very mealy. Add a huge portion of sour cream on top. The chili cheeseburger was quite good. You'll definitely get full and the price is right.

I thought the food was very good and the window seat was also very nice. I also really enjoyed the fries.

Great little steakhouse. We had garlic mushrooms to start. For mains I had the lamb cutlets and my boyfriend had the 400g rump steak. Food was amazing, only slight issue was my boyfriend asked for his steak to be cooked medium, and it was more on the rare side. Cocktails were also lovely.

A nice steakhouse. However, I have eaten better fillet. Service was very good
