Walkmühlen-Restaurant in Mülheim an der Ruhr

We were there for the first time on December 25, 24. We could only choose from one menu. For example, goose breast. Starter soup which was the best from the menu. But we will definitely come back again. And eat a la carte because we really liked the service and ambience.

Have been there again for a long time. Very nice service. We enjoyed the food. There are also little things on the map.

Actually everything was satisfactory when we ate there with 20 people at Christmas, until after we had all paid they said there were still 86 euros left for drinks...almost impossible. Then everyone would have only paid for their meal, without drinks, which was not the case. It's hard to understand when, as a guest, you no longer notice what is being recorded in the cash registers.

A top class restaurant! Beautiful, large fireplace room - lovingly furnished - pleasant service - at our family celebration (30 people) particularly tasty and imaginative dishes were served with starters, main courses and dessert - the children's room should also be highlighted - we were very satisfied! Volkmar Spira

The restaurant was cozy, with an open fireplace and generally nicely decorated. The food was very tasty, of course the portions were very generous and the prices were high. But that's how it is in this type of place and we knew that beforehand. We were there at Christmas with around 20 people and we were told by phone that in addition to the Christmas menu (3-4 course menus) the normal menu would also be served. That didn't happen, even after asking several times. Our small children, who of course didn't have a 3-course meal, didn't get any dessert, so they looked at it first and then ordered it separately. The worst thing was, after the first ones had paid and left, the rest had to pay an outstanding amount of 86 euros, which is actually inexplicable. This amount was supposed to have been made up exclusively of drinks. That would mean no one paid for any drink. Which of course wasn't the case. Unfortunately it couldn't be clarified, but something went wrong. One person had to pay for a drink that he ordered but didn't get. This annoying incident really spoiled our meal. This payment system, where food and drinks are only added to the back and the guest has no overview, should be reconsidered.

The veal roulades, never again!

We had a Christmas goose delivered. It was on time, but unfortunately not yet disassembled, which meant that the side dishes were cold in the meantime. Dumplings and red cabbage were from a jar, the marzipan apple was small. The sauce was very tasty, but unfortunately not enough. The goose was quite dry and not very seasoned. It was an experience, but next year we'll prefer to prepare the food ourselves again. Delivery is not recommended.

If you want good food, you've come to the wrong place!! The food was little and cold. The meat was dry and not edible. Staff unfriendly and very long waiting times...a German course would be helpful in the restaurant. Completely overpriced. No more!!

Very well attended restaurant with slightly upscale cuisine that has attention to detail. Even connoisseurs notice the loving details on the plates. Whether it was a change of table or a food allergy, no wish was left unfulfilled. The bill is passed unobtrusively, waiters are very attentive, and the interior is lovingly and cleanly decorated. Reasonably priced for this type of food/drinks. Anyone who has ever eaten here knows that you should come to the table here and not have it delivered. Then there would be fewer negative reviews. The kitchen thrives on “cooked to perfection”, so a delivery can always be a risk. Thank you for this first great impression. This means you have been able to gain new regular guests - us!

Christmas Day...disappointment across the board!! ...nothing worked. Despite reserving a table in the fireplace room, we didn't get one... Apparently something went wrong. We were offered a tiny table in one of the many rooms in the corner...an impertinence!! Finally we sat upstairs in an almost empty room....no Christmas atmosphere....and then a very bad menu!! ...the soup and the skin course were cold...just disappointing!! An espresso and a Ramazotti as compensation... very poor!! Huge disappointment at Christmas!!.....a shame...a shame... ...dear boss, think about it...

Disaster! On Christmas Eve the hosts ordered goose including side dishes for 8 people. The agreed delivery time would have been 6 p.m. Delivered around 8 p.m. after several phone calls. Unfortunately, the food was cold, the goose breast was dry and tough. The side dishes (red cabbage and dumplings) probably came from a supermarket shelf. The hosts felt really sorry for us. That was it for us with this restaurant. One star is still too many...

We were there on December 24th. It was our first time there with 5 people and it will definitely stay that way. Price and performance were out of proportion that day! Food lukewarm to cold, wrong drinks, careless piano player (no Christmas songs), overwhelmed service staff. However, the playroom for children is of course a great idea!

This year, a father-daughter goose dinner in the run-up to Christmas was a welcome reason to visit the fulling mill. As a result, we also ordered two goose legs, which turned out to be a great choice; both the taste of the potato dumplings (one more would be welcome), the delicately seasoned chestnut sauce, the deliciously prepared red cabbage, the aromatic braised apple, and of course the taste of the main characters themselves - goose legs - was simply heavenly! Like homemade might be well-intentioned in this context, but it doesn't really capture the experience... The individual components were seasoned so well that we were in complete agreement as we ate that it was clear for 2025 where our father-daughter goose dinner would take place. If the service is good in a wonderful atmosphere - not annoying, absolutely friendly - then the service is absolutely worth every euro. Gladly again, absolutely recommended!

Today I had dinner at the Walkmühle again. I've been going there off and on for several years. The food, service and ambience are at the same high level throughout. I'd love to come back.

Food served carelessly, goose leg and breast looked very dry, very small veal schnitzel - overall too expensive for what was on offer. However, nice atmosphere and nice attentive staff

Yesterday, December 8th, 2024, we had dinner with 5 people in the Walkmühlen Restaurant. I would like to start by saying that mistakes are human. When it comes to mistakes, it is important to deal with them openly and honestly. As well as a confident approach from the business owner to ensure that the guests still have a nice evening. We definitely reserved the table 5 months ago because there was a special occasion and we were looking forward to the evening. We come to the fireplace room, where there are definitely 8 round tables set for up to 10 people. The tables were beautifully set, but the room is simply far too small for the number of guests planned. It looks like a wedding party is expected. We sit down at the table with 5 people and only 3 people get a menu. We wait 2 minutes, but nothing happens. Luckily we saw where the menus were and then took two more menus ourselves. We sat in the middle of the room, next to our table there were already two other tables occupied with guests. Suddenly the staff brings another table into the room, for 4 people. The table was, so to speak, carried over our heads to a window front. So that there was room for the table there, the table for 10 people was moved behind us, including the chairs. And did this several times until everything found its place. The background noise was unpleasant. Of the starters ordered, only 4 out of 5 were served. We had to wait 10 minutes for number 5. Three starters were ordered identically. Of the 5 main courses, only 4 were served. The missing main course was identical to another one from our group. The subsequent delivery took almost 15 minutes. We politely declined. Explanation and apology only upon request. It was not asked whether there should be a total bill, not whether cash or card. We only received a partial invoice. Thanks to the Walkmühle team. You spoiled our dinner for a special occasion. And no restaurant needs a boss who ducks away when things get difficult. Absolutely no recommendation.

We had a really nice and cozy evening with the best food! :) gladly again!

The food was very tasty, the ingredients were fresh. The plate was appetizingly prepared. Service: friendly and fast. Ambience is rustic, but with a lot of atmosphere. We'd love to come back!

We are currently in a hotel in Essen and for this reason we decided to order from this restaurant. After waiting 1.5 hours for our food, we decided to call the restaurant in question and ask. Our order came, but unfortunately we were very disappointed. The noodles had no salt or other spices. The pizza was absolutely unconvincing in terms of taste. The dough was way too thick and you chewed on it like it was a WHOLE pack of HubbaBubba. I've never left a negative review, but that was really a disgrace. I would love to give -1 stars!!

We went to the restaurant for dinner with our family on the occasion of our "golden wedding anniversary". It was a very nice evening. Everything fit. A separate room, the table very nicely decorated, good food, good service. Although the restaurant was full to capacity this Saturday evening (November 30th, 2024), everything worked perfectly. At the end the boss congratulated us with a bottle of Prosecco!! Unanimous decision: this will be the family restaurant for the next celebration.

When I ordered over the phone, I could have guessed that the food wouldn't be good this time, the lady on the phone was very unfriendly even though we often order from the Walkmühle and are often there. After 1.5 hours the order arrived, 2x XL schnitzel with fries, the fries were half cooked and the schnitzels had a pile of breading and an indefinable rag (meat) inside. This was by far the worst meal from the fulling mill we have ever had. I regret giving another 9 euro tip.

We ordered artist catering. Our wishes were taken into account, even when changes had to be made at relatively short notice. The staff was great! Took very good care on site. I can absolutely recommend the catering service! Price and performance are right here! Thank you!

We ate goose leg and breast there with side dishes. 😋😋

We ordered catering from this restaurant. We are a large group of artists, and we have many nuances in food, it was important to choose a catering company that listens to us. It was incredibly tasty, with heart and they tried to take into account all our wishes in preferences. Thank you for listening. Thank you, it was delicious. We wish you not to stop, develop and give pleasant emotions to millions of people for many, many more years❤️

Cozy restaurant The food was very good, the service was very professional, the table was beautifully set for an 80th birthday and the games room was the absolute highlight. Thanks

Both the service and the quality of the food more than met our expectations. The friendly contract, the nice ideas for our company lunch as well as the successful implementation are reason enough for us to book the Walkmühle team again. It was really delicious! Thank you for everything!

Great food and great service from Irina. 5 stars and gladly again.

Price/performance top. All service staff were very friendly and nice. We and our guests really enjoyed the visit and the food.

Cozy restaurant with atmosphere. Good to very good service.

It's a shame that a restaurant as renowned as the Walkmühle is declining in such a way. We ordered two schnitzels: an "XXL" pork schnitzel and a Viennese veal schnitzel. However, XXL was only the packaging in which the small, poor, half-burnt schnitzel for 18 euros seemed completely lost. As a special attention from the chef, there was a little addition on the salad: a dollop of some other dish with rice (yuck, the salad ended up straight in the trash). The portions of salad and fries were also quite small. I'm happy to pay a few euros more (18 euros for a pork schnitzel!), but then I expect the same quality. A little tip: Instead of the fancy, personalized stickers that indicate that the Styrofoam packaging can be put in the oven (probably only when it is switched off, because the packaging itself says "max 90°"), it would be more helpful if to write the dishes on the packaging. At first glance, pork and veal schnitzel were indistinguishable from each other. It's a shame about the good old fulling mill. We won't be ordering here again.

I celebrated my 70th birthday there today with my whole family. The food deserves 5 stars, the service was excellent and d Has ambience as well. Since we had 4 small children with us, the playroom was just right. They conquered it straight away and we were able to spend a relaxing afternoon. I will definitely recommend the restaurant.

Great restaurant in a good, quiet location, very tasty dishes and very friendly and courteous service. Absolute recommendation!

The food was really good as always. Great wine on the menu. The service was friendly and cheerful as usual. Thank you.

Food is great, service is great and all in a nice atmosphere!

We celebrated our wedding at the Walkmühle in June and were thrilled. The wedding celebration was actually planned in the beautiful garden. Due to the weather, we changed our mind the day before to celebrate the wedding celebration in one of the rooms with Irina from Walkmühle. I can only say that Irina exceeded our expectations by a lot. Not only did she decorate the room beautifully with a lot of love and heart, we are endlessly grateful for that. She always had an open ear for us when we had questions and fulfilled all of our wishes. Thank you so much for that, she also made our wedding something special. But I would also like to thank the other service staff who were very friendly and attentive. The food was fantastic, all of our guests were thrilled with the delicious food. We really had nothing to criticize and were thrilled with everything. That's why we can recommend the fulling mill and its staff 100%.

Absolutely recommended. Especially truffle sauce and beetroot carpaccio.

Very friendly team. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very pleasant, I want to come back!

I recently visited the Walkmühlen restaurant and was very impressed. The food was delicious and high quality, especially the octopus. The service was friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was very inviting. I can only recommend the restaurant!

Had a great time Delicious food Nice staff We will be happy to visit again

Super tasty, great dishes of good quality, very friendly and competent service, nice ambience

Great location, very good food, extremely friendly staff

Very tasty and high quality food, the service is quick and pleasant. Lots of nature around, so you can go for a walk after a good meal. Is highly recommended if you want to have a good, quiet meal

Today we enjoyed a very nice evening for two on the terrace. Very tasty food, lovingly served, really hot, absolutely perfect! Chanterelle soup, plaice and beef fillet tasted excellent. Thank you for your warm hospitality!

Finally an old school restaurant. The food was excellent, the service was excellent and so was the ambience. Can only be recommended. The price is a little higher but that's just due to the quality. We are from the catering industry ourselves and will be back. Spaghetti with Parmesan cheese was particularly good

Cool place for your celebration! A beautiful terrace, a gorgeous photo zone for an unforgettable memory! Located in a cozy, quiet place in a building that is rightfully considered a historical place, an ancient monument.

Light and shadow A waiter who doesn't know the menu (regardless of whether he's new to the role or not, you can learn the menu by heart), who puts in a lot of effort but is obviously working in the restaurant for the first time Dishes that tasted good (oysters, pelmeni) Dishes that were served too cold (Pasta made from Parmesan cheese) Dishes without a kick (veal cheeks) Overall, the price/performance is not right

I had the pleasure of dining at your restaurant and loved it from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious and perfectly prepared. The service was exceptional - the staff were friendly, attentive and very professional. The atmosphere in the restaurant is warm and inviting, which made the evening even more enjoyable. I'm already looking forward to my next visit and can highly recommend your restaurant!

Great dishes! New superior experience

So at the culinary mile the octopus was horrible. More appearance than reality. 14 euros for an octopus that tastes stale with a bit of salad. No grill aroma, nothing! Never again

Good food at a higher price than comparable restaurants, nice outdoor area

Very tasty! And the place itself is beautiful, breathing history

More to appear than to be. The price is disproportionate to the food and ambience offered.

Always happy, beautifully located, super quiet with a beautiful green outdoor area

We celebrated a big birthday here and had a wonderful, relaxed and enjoyable evening in a small group. Josepe served us the most delicious meal and filleted the fish at the table. The oysters were the freshest I have ever eaten in Mülheim. Overall a great evening with delicious food. An absolute recommendation is the truffle pasta made from a parmesan wheel.

Very nice, courteous waiters. Very tasty food.

Very friendly and attentive staff. There was nothing wrong with the food. Simply great

Warm atmosphere of German countryside

Cozy restaurant with a great outdoor area. The food and service are always great and the atmosphere is familiar. Last time Giuseppe served us exceptionally well. We always enjoy coming back.

Good food, classic restaurant....

I went here for dinner and I didn't regret the time I spent here. It has a very nice atmosphere as the place is very old. The service is quick and professional, and the food is delicious. I will definitely come here more often to enjoy all their dishes. Thank you very much

Nicely located restaurant. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate so we had to sit inside. But it didn't detract from the whole thing. The food was incredibly harmonious and delicious. We had asparagus which was super fresh and aromatic. Spaghetti made from parmesan and liver. All dishes were convincing. The highlight was the dessert. A lemon sorbet, what a dream!

very good food, courteous waiter, relaxed atmosphere, thank you very much

Nice atmosphere, very tasty, everything was great

Very tasty food with excellent service in the rustic Walkmühle. We felt in good hands and will celebrate our next wedding anniversaries here!

Very good food, particularly good advice 🫶

Ordered for the first time and very satisfied:) Good selection, friendly & fast delivery and DELICIOUS FOOD. Thank you very much 🙏

The service was very friendly, courteous and personable and the food was really tasty and lots of it. There are enough parking spaces available and directly at the restaurant. The furnishings feel very loving both inside and out.

Today was the second time we went to the Walkmühle for the rehearsal dinner for our wedding in July and we can clearly say that it was the perfect decision to do so. From the menu creation to the detailed discussion, everything was implemented very professionally and tailored to our wishes. We are 100 percent convinced that your wedding day will be wonderful.

Very friendly and competent service. Good advice for a family celebration - so I can't judge the food at the moment

Very courteous service and the food was delicious. The vegan offering could be expanded, but that's complaining at a high level.

Very nice restaurant with great service! The Wiener schnitzel was a dream, I've never had such a delicious schnitzel before, the meat was super tender and the breading was nice and crispy.

The food was incredibly delicious. The service was great, we were served straight away and didn't have to wait long for our food. I was here with my boyfriend and neither of us had ever eaten such a delicious schnitzel. The fries and dips were also perfect. We'd love to come back. :)

We celebrated my son's communion there today. We have never eaten so well. Service super friendly. Everything is great. We had a 4 course menu which was really great

Very friendly staff and super delicious food at a fair price. Of course, this is a matter of personal interpretation, but quality also has its price. Furthermore, the outdoor area has a cozy flair when the weather is nice☀️

When the weather was nice, we were able to use the outdoor area for the first time today. Wonderful ambience and great food. What more could you want?

Everything was very tasty and the service was perfect, an asset to Mülheim ❤️

Very tasty food. Nice staff. And a great restaurant. We'd love to come back.

We went for asparagus today. The food was very delicious and the selection was impressive. The service was first class - friendly, attentive and professional. An all-round perfect meal in a great atmosphere. Absolutely recommended!"

Very nice restaurant, very friendly and courteous staff. The food was also very tasty. I would happily recommend it.

delicious food, good value for money, attentive service... completely satisfied and would be happy to come back.

We have tried a few dishes so far. We have been very satisfied so far. In short: the food and service is top notch, the toilet is clean, the garden and outdoor area are very well maintained and invite you to drink a beer. Highly recommended from our side.

Very nice location, very friendly staff, food is top if you don't go you're missing out on the best part!

The food and the ambience are very good. The service is very friendly, but could be more attentive. We had to reorder drinks several times. The plaice Finkenwerder is recommended. The prices are reasonable. Plenty of parking spaces are available.

Were outside on the terrace, very tasty!

The first Walbeck asparagus. A delight and highly recommended as a dessert crème brulee

Our waiter Guiseppe 5 stars. Nice, friendly and very attentive. Price/performance ratio very good.

Today we ate our first asparagus once with veal schnitzel and once with entrecot. Everything was exactly on point.

Very tasty and high quality food and nice service. For my taste, the ambience is a bit dated but not convincing. Relaxed music playing in the background.

Their flyers pollute the district In week 11, the restaurant in Essen Kettwig distributed or had flyers distributed, which are now flying around the entire district, as those who distributed them obviously did not put them in the mailboxes, but simply left them in piles everywhere, which, when there is a bit of wind, means that These are now lying around in many places as garbage and flies. That is not how it works.

Very nicely located restaurant, service also great, I loved Tiramisu

Very good food, portions large enough and friendly and competent service. We recommend :)

A variety of good cuisine, something for everyone, from saddle of venison to pizza. And everything was very tasty. The staff was very attentive and friendly.

We were served very nicely and had a delicious meal.

It was wonderful. We were welcomed in a very friendly and attentive manner and served by Giuseppe! An absolute recommendation!!!

Fantastic! Without words: simply recommended.

Delicious food, nice and attentive service. Gladly again PS: child-friendly with its own play area

Very nice ambience, service A1, followed by delicious food

A wonderful afternoon at the Karussells restaurant. Excellent menu with well-chosen wines. Simply recommended.

Very nice service and good advice. The food here is super tasty and served very nicely.
