Vesttafel in Recklinghausen

A thoroughly enjoyable evening! The food was outstanding, the service attentive and with a charming touch of humor. We were particularly impressed by the excellent selection and matching of the wines. The atmosphere was stylish yet cozy—perfect for relaxed conversation for two. Highly recommended; we'll definitely be back!

We went to the Menükarussel and went back just two weeks later because we enjoyed the food, the ambiance, and the great service so much. We'll definitely be back next year for the Menükarussel. Huge praise goes to the kitchens, led by the friendly chef, and to all the staff. We received consistently friendly and courteous service.

Four of us were here today as part of the menu carousel. The food was delicious, imaginatively decorated, and served on beautiful china. The accompanying wines were available as non-alcoholic wines, and the overall ambiance was truly pleasing thanks to the stylish furnishings and tasteful decor. An all-around successful restaurant visit that left us wanting more.

Two of us went to the MK at Engels in the Burg, and I'm blown away. We're definitely regulars from now on :). Chef Daniel Webels takes time for each guest (where else can you find that?) We will definitely be back for Daniel's culinary journey. All in all, an unforgettable evening ☺️

Today I was a guest at the Engels restaurant in the castle: for the first time, I remember, thanks to numerous recommendations). I am still blown away by the exceptionally perfect food and the very good service personified by the restaurant manager This type of cuisine is rare to find, especially since the chef personally comes to the table, makes recommendations and, what I found particularly great, explains all the questions you might have as a guest in a professional and understandable way. In conversation with the chef Daniel Webels, it quickly became clear that I was looking at someone who loves what he does there. Very down-to-earth, personable and determined - that's what I think describes him best. I hope he stays with us in Recklinghausen for a very long time. Thank you for the unforgettable evening 💯

A wonderful evening with the menu carousel. Very nice staff, great food and perfectly matched wines. It couldn't be better.

We spent a wonderful evening. The food was excellent, the service attentive and very friendly. The Menu-Karussell menu was very well coordinated with the accompanying wines. The atmosphere in the restaurant was pleasant and very relaxed. A big compliment to the entire team!

Very well eaten, great service and pleasant atmosphere. Always my pleasure

The carousel menu was very tasty and creatively prepared. Plus a very cozy atmosphere.

It was an exceptionally creative menu with fantastic taste. The ambience is great and the service is first class.

The menu was excellent. The wines were very well matched to the menu. The service was very friendly and caring. The atmosphere was very cozy. We felt very comfortable. We'll be back.

We enjoyed the Carousel menu yesterday. It was really extraordinary, special and very tasty. The eye eats too. Plus extremely attentive service. Thank you for a great evening in a lovely atmosphere!

Highly recommended, exceptional restaurant, the best in the area! Upscale, comfortable atmosphere and competent, warm people - and a boss who obviously has big plans - and can do it! Again and again!

Menu carousel 2025 an absolute highlight. Professional service from Mr. Menke and Mr. Benz. When the chef comes to the table, the evening couldn't be more enjoyable! Gladly again!

I can recommend the restaurant, but you have to have a lot of time and patience, almost 3 hours (!) for a 3-course menu!

We had a wonderful evening. Culinary highlights, friendly service and a cozy ambience. We had the “Engels Menu” and can recommend it to everyone. Great ideas, bold creations and very good quality.

Thank you very much for the wonderful hours in your restaurant. We always felt like we were the center of the evening. Our waiter Jürgen was attentive and friendly. The menu was great in all its facets. An experience that invites you to repeat it.

We were in the restaurant as part of the menu carousel and the menu was really delicious. In keeping with the upscale atmosphere, the service was professional, relaxed and polite. We felt comfortable and well advised. What is particularly noteworthy is that some thought has also been given to non-alcoholic wine accompaniment. This is not yet the case in many restaurants. Please keep it up!

Have the carousel menu with friends Enjoyed with the accompanying wines. In a very pleasant atmosphere with excellent service. The chef Daniel Webels amazed us all with his creativity.

It was simply a great evening as part of Gabriele Denninger-Lach's menu carousel

Menu carousel at its finest. Very friendly staff and also very competent. Wine recommendation 🔝 Very nice ambience with great attention to detail. All courses are an experience and at a very high level. We felt very comfortable. Thank you for the lovely evening

Today we went to the menu carousel in Engels in the castle for the first time and were very impressed with the cuisine. The chef is unique, personable and totally attentive to guests. We have been to the Ratsstuben in Haltern several times but this kitchen is a step higher! We are regular guests from now on Thank you Daniel and see you soon :)

Wonderful ambience, the food was pure enjoyment in terms of appearance and taste, and the service from Larissa Bahlo was highly professional, very pleasant and extremely personable. So: nothing to complain about 🙃

Four of us were there last night at the menu carousel and had both the fish and the meat menu - we were all thrilled. Plus really good wines and very nice people who served us everything. A really lovely evening. The restaurant is definitely recommended! We'll stop by outside of the MK soon!

The food was super tasty and beautifully prepared. The service was very nice.

Very tasty food and friendly, dedicated staff

There is something special about coming through the curtain and being led to a beautiful table. The waitresses and waiters are very accommodating, take your coats, give advice and pamper you. The chef himself asked how we liked it. The dishes are cleverly and decoratively arranged and taste delicious. The drink selection is very good.

The a la carte food was of excellent quality. The service was quick and very attentive. We'll come back to the menu carousel.

Yesterday evening the two of us enjoyed a lovely evening with excellent food and very courteous, friendly staff. We have been guests at this restaurant many times and have always gone home satisfied.

Great hotel. Quietly located, beds, bed linen, pillows top! Kitchen especially. High quality food. The eye is with. Great quality.

Excellent food, great service and a relaxed atmosphere. Angels in the Castle did what it was supposed to do. A top gastronomy in Castel Sant’Angelo. We enjoy every stay there. Thanks for that and keep it up!

We were treated to wonderful service with wonderful food this evening. A service that we haven't been able to experience for a long time, we are happy to pay the amount for the quality that it is worth. Many thanks for the nice conversations to Mr. Menke (?), a very professional, knowledgeable employee. If more people with this charisma and expertise worked in the catering industry, then we think many more people would value this work. The food was to our complete satisfaction! We would love to come back.

I went to Engels in der Burg for the first time during the Christmas season for the Engels goes X-Mas evening - and it definitely won't be the last time. The individual courses, some served at the table, some in buffet form, were perfectly coordinated and tasted an absolute highlight. The service staff was extremely friendly and accommodating, and even the chef took the time to personally ask how satisfied we were. A clear recommendation for everyone who appreciates special enjoyment and warm hospitality!

Yesterday we visited the restaurant in a group of five people. Everyone was impressed by the excellent cuisine as well as the attentive service and the welcoming atmosphere! I would particularly like to highlight the goose breast that I ordered - it is definitely one of the best two goose dishes I have ever eaten! P.S. I was at Engels again today, December 20th. The goose was a little drier than the last visit. You should definitely order an extra portion of sauce (at an additional cost). I did that with my first order, I just forgot to mention it.

Very nice and friendly staff. And if you're not happy with the food here, you can't help it. And also an excellent Pinot Gris. Great and thumbs up.

Had a very nice evening there. The staff were all super accommodating and friendly, great praise for the kitchen, highly recommended.

We had goose dinner in the Engels restaurant in the castle. The food was really unique and the service was top. We felt completely at home and would be happy to come back. Thank you very much.

It was delicious and plentiful. We enjoyed the evening!

Again, absolutely great. We always enjoy coming back to you, and we weren't disappointed today on our first wedding anniversary!

Great three course menu. The roulade was a delight. Very attentive service and the chef personally inquired about our satisfaction. Gladly again.

Chef Daniel Webels surprised my husband and me with a colorful multi-course menu that left absolutely nothing to be desired! There was everything there that would make a gourmet's heart beat faster: caviar, oysters, lobster, Wagyu, sole,...accompanied by selected wines and a very friendly team. Thanks to Susanna Goesmann, managing director of the Engel in der Burg in the Parkhotel Engelsburg, Daniel, service manager Sebastian Benz and the entire team for this unforgettable evening. You are an enrichment for Recklinghausen. Keep it up!

Great chef seeks contact with the guests and accepts criticism! The goose meal [menu] was very good, dumplings could have been better! We will come back!

Very pleasant atmosphere, friendly service. Eating casually yet elegantly.

Exceptionally good service!!! Food of the finest quality!!! Best ambience, cheers to the chef, we will definitely be back!!!!! An experience 💪

Very tasty food, nice ambience and exceptional service (Annika & Lena). The two of them served us yesterday and were very friendly and attentive.

It was a special experience. Culinary and particularly noteworthy service! Annika Rataj and Lena Thiel, thank you! It is no longer usual these days that the chef personally came to each table after the meal and asked questions. A return is certain.

I had dinner there with my wife on Saturday. We chose the fantastic 5-course menu with wine accompaniment, it was excellent. The chef himself came to our table to make sure everything was OK, a very friendly, professional man who gave us a wonderful evening with his creations. We will definitely come regularly and let ourselves be enchanted.

After a long time we visited the restaurant “Engels in der Burg” again, which recently had a new chef (Daniel Webels). It is always a pleasure to dine in this elegant restaurant. We were warmly greeted by the restaurant manager, Mr. Benz, and shown to our table. After a short conversation our champagne arrived. This time we tried the à la carte menu. As always, we were pampered by the creative cuisine and the entire service team and were able to feast the whole evening. I don't want to write anything about the food, the pictures speak for themselves. At the end of the evening, Mr. Webels came to our table and briefly introduced himself. It was a wonderful evening that we will definitely repeat more often.

I had the pleasure of the restaurant Visiting "Engels In der Burg" and all I can say is that the food was excellent! The beef fillet was cooked perfectly and looked very attractive too. The wild boar fillet was also very good and exceeded my expectations. A special highlight was the greeting from the kitchen - a real taste explosion! The service could be expanded a bit, but the overall package is right. For dessert I tried the chocolate mousse variants, which were very filling; One serving is definitely enough for two. All in all, a successful evening that I can only recommend!

I was a guest in this great restaurant today. It started with a warm welcome and 2 great greetings from the kitchen, where you immediately feel that there is someone in the kitchen who clearly knows what he is doing there. The main course was visually a feast for the eyes and tasted sensational. .

Dishes with a taste and visual perfection that you rarely find

We were more than satisfied with the service! The chef is a professional through and through!!! I don't know when I've eaten so well!!! Keep it up! We'd love to come back.

Thank you for the pleasant time in your hotel and restaurant. Our visit to Recklinghausen had a sad occasion, but I enjoyed the time with my mother and the friendly and quiet environment even more. The calm radiated by the reception and all the employees did us good. I would particularly like to highlight the restaurant because all of our wishes were fulfilled there. The short conversations with the staff and even the chef about the gourmet magazine gave the evenings and the food a special touch. Thank you for the pleasant time during a difficult family time. We can highly recommend the hotel and the restaurant. Joanna & Helga from Warnemünde

Everything was delicious, the service was perfect and we would love to come back 😊

Very good food and really very good service. Pleasant atmosphere and a reasonable portion size. Price / performance 👍

From a warm welcome to excellent service and food of very good quality. This is how you can enjoy an evening.

Attentive great service. Wonderful greeting from the kitchen. We had, among other things, sauerbraten, veal schnitzel and sea bream and were more than satisfied. Atmospheric, stylish and cozy. Beautiful gem in the city near the old city wall. P.S.: Let us recommend an alcohol-free appetizer - wonderful.

Went to the Engels restaurant in the castle today. The food was great and beautifully prepared. I would also like to emphasize very positively that the chef goes to every table and asks for feedback

We went there for dinner today and I'm still impressed. The food is so delicious and so well prepared that you think you're in a star restaurant! The staff always attentive and very friendly. All in all, a great evening 🥳 Gladly again…..THANK YOU

A perfect evening in every respect. Attentive and extremely competent staff. Fantastic cuisine, perfect wine pairing. It couldn't be better...

Really big cinema... very attentive staff, the food is a poem and prepared with so much attention to detail. Just great

Best quality and a fantastic ambiance, great friendly service, highly recommended

The food is delicious dishes are beautiful and full of taste! Made with love Recommended!!

We went to the "Wild Evening" at Engels in der Burg: various game dishes, some served at the table, some in buffet form. Ambitious cuisine, extremely friendly and professional service, good wines (not exactly cheap), this combination is unfortunately rare in Recklinghausen. The included aperitif was a great introduction, the saddle of venison in a herb crepe coat was my personal favorite. Soft pink inside, buttery soft and aromatic, despite the presentation in buffet form. Here and there the seasoning could have been a little more refined, but all in all an enjoyable evening that was worth the money.

I was a guest with two other people in the Engels restaurant in the castle and was treated to two greetings from the kitchen, followed by a sensational 3-course menu. You can tell that an expert is at work here 👍 Not to mention fabulous service Keep it up 👍 We are regular guests from now on 👌

This year's "Vest Menu" with the Vestischen Weinkonvent took place today in the Engels Restaurant. We were thrilled with the 4-course menu, both by the quality of the food and the quantity of portions, which for me could have been less. The visual presentation was particularly great. The chef Daniel took the time to communicate with the guests. I have already booked another menu in November.

We went for the Wednesday menu: excellent cuisine with a culinary experience (2 Amuse Gueule, excellent saddle of venison), very friendly service, convincing price/performance ratio. Gladly again!

We award the stars for a really good, tasty and lovingly served meal (main course very clear in terms of quantity). However, there were quite long waiting times, which were shortened before the soup, with two greetings from the kitchen. At the end the chef came to the table, questioned our food and told us about his future plans and made recommendations. We found it absolutely negative that the wines were poured extremely sparingly (no calibration mark, so that's just our feeling) at exorbitantly high prices, e.g. the red wine, a Palatinate "Incognito" a bottle for €13, beats Engels i.d.B. per glass with 0.2L? Book for €18! That leaves a bad aftertaste. Our recommendation; Keep your eyes open when it comes to wine (the other drinks were within the usual range), it's best to ask for the wine list, then you'll be safe from such surprises, then the whole thing will be a nice, enjoyable evening, with competent, friendly service in an upscale atmosphere.

Yesterday we were guests at the “Wild Evening”. The quality and presentation were a dream! Quite remarkable: the chef took his time with everyone and went from table to table! Gladly again!

A successful (wild) evening! The two of us enjoyed the game evening yesterday. Everything was perfectly prepared and tasted extremely delicious. My highlight was the wild tail fillet with the porcini mushroom sauce. Our conclusion: first-class cuisine, very professional but still personal service in an absolutely stylish atmosphere!

On our last visit we had a Wiener Schnitzel, the best of its kind outside of Vienna. The potato salad with it is not the usual warmed one but crunchy with a subtle note of mustard, very refreshing. Overall a great evening

This restaurant has always been top class and the food is of the highest quality, but the new chef has managed to raise the standard even further. Incredibly good!!! Thanks for the experience.

We were as a couple in the Engelsburg restaurant on September 21st, 2024. ...ordered a 3-course menu and were extremely satisfied. The ingredients and preparation of the dishes were excellent. The service, the ambience and the delicacies completed the overall picture. Thank you very much for that!

I recently visited a restaurant and I have no words to describe how great my time there was! The chef really surprised us with his culinary masterpieces. The truffle and shrimp linguine was to die for — the pasta was cooked to perfection, and the combination of aromatic truffle and fresh shrimp created an incredible flavor that will be remembered for a long time. Furthermore, the service was excellent. The staff was attentive and friendly. The location of the restaurant is also very successful — an atmospheric place with a cozy interior, ideal for both a romantic dinner and a meeting with friends. Overall, I absolutely loved this restaurant and would recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy exquisite cuisine and excellent service!

Very friendly staff, the excellent food was kindly brought to my room as I was unable to eat in the restaurant due to illness

Super friendly staff, delicious food, nice atmosphere, suitable background music

The four of us sat in the courtyard of the hotel. That was really very nice. The service is very attentive. All the food came at the same time on preheated, very nice plates. The dishes were wonderfully prepared. Unfortunately the taste is a bit disappointing. The names of the dishes and the prices promise a first-class culinary experience. That is definitely not the case. The selection of ingredients may be special. However, the restaurant doesn't seem to be able to bring these together into a harmonious composition. Too bad.

A successful evening with friends in the Engels restaurant in the castle Four of us recently went to the Engels restaurant in the castle with friends and had a really wonderful evening. As soon as we entered the restaurant, we were impressed by the charming and cozy atmosphere - a successful mix of historical flair and modern elegance. The food was excellent. Each of us tried a different dish and everyone was completely satisfied. The dishes were not only visually appealing, but also a highlight in terms of taste. You can tell that the attention to detail and high-quality ingredients are worked here. The service was also impeccable. The staff was attentive, friendly and always available without being intrusive. We particularly liked the relaxed atmosphere, which was underlined by the warm nature of the team. Overall, a thoroughly successful evening that we would be happy to repeat. The Engels restaurant in the castle is definitely worth recommending to anyone who wants to enjoy good food in a great ambience.

Great dinner in a beautiful atmosphere. I'd love to come back 😀

Really great service, really great food. We had a wonderful evening!

Yesterday we went to Engels in the castle for the first time for a Latin American barbecue evening. It was an absolutely perfect summer evening in the castle garden. Courteous, friendly service and a fantastic ambience at the Engeslbrunnen, which gave us a special holiday feeling. The grill buffet was unusual and very, very tasty. We have booked the next barbecue evening straight away. ☺️

Great place to stay and celebrate. As a service provider you are also in good hands here. Thank you for this great first experience in your house. Best regards Schubert's photography

We visited the Engels restaurant in the castle again on Tuesday and were very impressed again. The new menu impresses with great dishes, such as the “Caught zander on black pudding risotto” and “Two kinds of venison with pointed cabbage and homemade Schupfnudeln” that we selected. First of all, we decided on Vitello Tonnato, which was served once as a tartare and once in one piece, and a wild garlic tea with dim sum. Everything is super delicious. We were treated to fine wines by the super friendly service. The ambience with velvet sofas is cozy and homely. We also think it's particularly great that increased emphasis is placed on animal welfare, sustainability and regionality when selecting products. Commendable and worth supporting!

Exceptional service combined with perfect food. Annika makes a special evening the perfect evening. We drive here for 2.5 hours because it is always an experience. The attention to detail and the incredible service is an absolute unique selling point. Whether with or without children you simply feel welcome and it is always an experience. Thanks to the team!

Visit as part of the menu carousel. As always, a special experience with nice service.

Very good and fine restaurant with a very elegant menu. Service was extremely friendly and accommodating.

sehr gutes Essen Top Service und ein sehr zuvorkommender Küchenchef 👩‍🍳

Great service, very attentive and informal. Although we have often eaten in Recklinghausen, it was our first visit to Engels. But we will definitely come back. The service was very pleasant and available at any time. The food was really very good (the tartar 1A) and in a good portion size. There were also various intermediate courses and attentions such as sea buckthorn sorbet from the kitchen. Keep going as you are, improve little things!

An upscale restaurant with very good cuisine and very good service. The ambience has slight hints of the 80s, but is consistently upscale and appropriate. There is a pleasantly relaxed, casual atmosphere. Whether the background music needs to be unobtrusive is certainly a matter of taste. The only (and relatively insignificant) point that I noticed is that the espresso cup apparently wasn't preheated and therefore my espresso cooled down relatively quickly. But the taste of the espresso was perfect. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

As always, everything was great.

Very nice atmosphere, food was tasty to ok, but the waitress was very arrogant.

Great! We had a wonderful birthday dinner and chose the goose menu. Perfect all around, the wines and the service. We look forward to the next dinner.

Everything was fine but they have a lot of scope to improve the service.

The food was good, no question, but what impressed me even more was the attentive, friendly, competent and unobtrusive service. All in all a very successful evening.

Sehr gut gegessen. Gerne wieder.

We went to the restaurant with friends last week. We already knew Angel in the Castle as a Vesttafel from the menu carousel. The ambience has been made even more open and inviting. The food is simply excellent. The advice and hospitality provided by the staff is professional, very friendly and unobtrusive. As a whole, Angel in the Castle is certainly the top address in Recklinghausen at the moment. We'd love to come back. Thank you for the hospitality!

Ate there again on Friday, as always everything was of a high standard! Certainly the best address for good food in Recklinghausen

We had dinner there with friends yesterday and we all had the 4 or 5 course menu, some with accompanying wines. The individual courses were so delicious😋😋😋, so beautifully presented🤩🤩🤩 and the accompanying wines went perfectly with it. It's a great art that everything is so perfectly coordinated! The atmosphere is very pleasant and the service is absolutely top ❗️ And we think the prices are very fair for what you get there ❗️ Absolute recommendation! Thank you very much for the lovely evening and the good service ❗️

We were there again 14 days ago for our anniversary. As always, it was a successful evening. The desired 4 course menu became 6 courses. The recommended wine was a delight at its finest. The service was attentive, communicative but not intrusive. We always enjoy coming there. Anyone who appreciates good cuisine will definitely not be disappointed.

Friendly, nice communication, helpful... and it wasn't too crowded... I personally liked that... also a nice experience with our lovely little Havanese! Top!
