Wüstenblume Fulda in Fulda

Today was our second time there. Apparently, we had made a reservation at the wrong restaurant (Pars), 😂😂😂 which caused some confusion. Despite the incorrect reservation, they did everything they could to get us a table for three. Our waitress took this with great humor, despite the circumstances, and we had a very pleasant evening. The food was amazing again, just like last time. Many thanks to the team.

A wonderful evening at the Wüstenblume. The entire crew was super friendly and on top of their game. Despite booking incorrectly, or rather, incorrectly by me, we got a spot and had a fantastic time. I'd love to come back. Thanks to everyone.

We've been here several times. Today there was a lot of confusion because the table was accidentally reserved at the Persian restaurant instead of here, but the staff took it with good humor and squeezed us in with a lot of effort. Best wishes to the team :). The food is a solid 11 out of 10. The service is the best I've ever had in a restaurant. You can have a lot of fun with the staff. Otherwise, the ambiance and setting are perfect. All in all, a highly recommended and wonderful experience.

A dream restaurant. The staff were so polite and welcoming, the food was absolutely fantastic, and the decor was truly beautiful, even in the restroom. I would 100/10 recommend it to anyone who enjoys good food. A must-do when in Fulda. As a tourist, you should eat there at least once.

Unfortunately, this scale is very limited. I'd like to give it 6/5 stars. The food was amazing, the vibe was out of this world. I'll definitely be back. P.S. the owner is the most chill guy ever.

Beautiful restaurant with friendly staff and delicious food. A great selection of African dishes, and the drinks were also delicious. We will definitely be back. Thank you for this wonderful evening.

An absolutely exceptional place to eat, with absolutely exceptional food. Highly recommended, but best with a reservation, as it gets very busy.

Very nice gastronomy and very nice delicious food there and very friendly, super recommended, worth coming again 🤗🤗🤗

We were there for the first time today and will definitely be back. The food was very, very good and the staff was extremely friendly...

I haven't had such a delicious meal in a long time. Absolutely recommend it! The ambiance is perfect, and the service is super friendly. We'll definitely be back 👌😍

A truly fantastic African restaurant! The service is super friendly and attentive. Even though the restaurant was fully booked, they found a spot for us. The food was incredibly delicious, authentic, and prepared with love. The spices, flavors, and fresh ingredients – simply perfect!

Super delicious food and fun service. It was a great evening! 😁

Very tasty, beautifully decorated and very friendly people 🥰

Best African restaurant in Fulda Superb service

We girls go to Fulda once a year and discovered the "Desert Flower" by chance last year. The authentic food is "incredibly delicious." You can eat with your hands, but cutlery is also provided upon request. You definitely have to try the "Desert Flower" drink! In Bavaria, we say "saulecker" 🥰

It was fantastic. The interior was super atmospheric, stunning, and fitting. The food and cocktails were truly delicious. The value for money was absolutely justified and not excessive. The entire team was accommodating, friendly, open, and well-organized. We also received a brief introduction to the concept (including the idea of ​​tasting food with your hands) and good recommendations to help us choose. We then read on the menu that they don't serve alcohol to create a family-friendly and safe environment, which we really liked—nothing was missing. Everything was super appreciative, and it was a fantastic evening. We felt like good friends from the very first minute. It's even worth traveling from Kassel or Erfurt—I'm so thrilled and glad we found you on our short trip to Fulda. Next time, we'll be back with glasses that convey African vibes, or maybe even with two—insider 😉🤣

I would give it 6 stars if I could. Delicious food with exotic spices. Eat with your hands, super friendly staff, and a great atmosphere.

Superb food and a super cool atmosphere, and the staff are all fantastic! We've been here many times and have been completely satisfied every time! I really can't praise the food and the staff enough!

It was absolutely wonderful! Everyone was so attentive and friendly, and the food was so delicious. This evening was more than just "going out to eat"; it was a true experience that we'll always remember fondly. We'll be back when we're in Fulda <3

Super super super. Highly recommend. Food is great and generous quantity. The owner of the place and waiters are also kind and polite. Must visit !

We were in Fulda for one night and spontaneously had dinner at the Wüstenblume. We really enjoyed it. The ambiance, service, and food – all very good. Definitely something different; we would come back.

A very nice, stylish restaurant with delicious, exceptional food. The service staff was also very friendly; we felt very comfortable and had a great evening :)

A truly fantastic restaurant! The ambiance is incredibly inviting, and you immediately feel at home. I'd especially like to highlight the incredibly friendly and attentive waiters, who made the visit a pleasant evening. Thank you for the wonderful time and best wishes from Bad Brückenau!

Super friendly people, delicious food, and a great atmosphere. 10 out of 10. We'll definitely be back!

With best wishes from Gelsenkirchen ⚽️, I'd like to thank you for the fantastic evening on Saturday. The food was amazing, and the waitress, who's now a friend 😉, was incredibly nice. I also thought your music was fantastic, even though I didn't know it at all. In the hope that everything stays the way it is, I highly recommend it and will definitely be back soon 👍 Keep up the great work. A little gem for Fulda 😍

We visited you again on Sunday with our family and friends; we were able to bring two more people with us at short notice by phone. You welcomed us warmly again, explained your cuisine to the "newcomers," and repeatedly asked about our wishes and satisfaction without being intrusive. The food is delicious, beautifully presented, and always freshly prepared. Your youthful, uncomplicated, and fresh approach makes it easy to feel completely at home.

Superb food and a beautiful ambiance. :) Jasmin took such good care of us. Best wishes from table 11 ;-)

We were passing through and stumbled upon this interesting restaurant by chance. The service is incredibly professional. Everything is explained to you. The food is an incredible explosion of flavors. The ambiance is dreamy, with fitting African music. Best wishes to the lovely waitress 😉🫶

All in all, it's simply very satisfying. If you're looking for a change, this is the place for you. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, and the food is also very good. We were very satisfied and will definitely be back.

A very nice restaurant. The service is super friendly. And the food is very good.

We drove an hour especially because we really wanted to try fufu, and it was definitely worth it. It was incredibly delicious, and everyone was incredibly friendly. We'll definitely go back.

Great service! It was worth the trip! Fufu was amazing! We'll be back! ☺️

Super delicious African food, great ambiance, and very friendly hosts. Simply fantastic. Best regards from Aachen.

Very delicious food in a lovely atmosphere. There were nine of us, and we received a very friendly welcome.

I really enjoyed the restaurant. The food was delicious and fresh, and the service was very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was also very pleasant; I immediately felt at home. I would definitely come back! ☺️ Thank you to the whole team for the lovely birthday surprise! 🧡

It was our first time there with four people. We received a very friendly welcome. The ambiance is fantastic, and the restrooms are especially worth mentioning. We ordered a variety of dishes so we could try everything. A taste experience. The cocktails were incredibly delicious. Kudos to the entire team that was there that evening. We'll be back (Andi Seven Worlds 😂 with his three wives.)

Wow! We stopped here while passing through without knowing much about the restaurant and managed to snag a table on a Sunday evening. We were truly blown away by what they offer. The food is absolutely delicious! With a starter plate and a main course with a variety of options (both intended for two people), we were able to sample a wide variety of dishes for just two people. Yes, you eat with your hands (which is why a thin slice of bread is served with it) – but cutlery is also available if you prefer. Above all, you can experience how the restaurant team wholeheartedly serves their guests! If we didn't live 250km away, we would definitely come here more often. Thank you!

A truly special experience – the stylish, unique ambiance, eye-catching lamps, and eating with your hands make the visit truly special. A big compliment to our friendly waitress Jasmin: She was not only very friendly, but also extremely attentive and competent. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she was very sensitive to my food intolerances – even with small, much-appreciated gestures of consideration. All in all, a thoroughly successful evening with a great overall concept and warm service. If we're ever in town again, we'll definitely be back.

Super delicious food, attentive and friendly service, and a great atmosphere. The restaurant is a bit cramped and therefore a bit noisy, but I don't think it could be changed. All in all, highly recommended.

We were really looking forward to the meal. Our first impression was very good. Nice ambiance and friendly staff. We then ordered food and waited 55 minutes for it. The food was good, but there wasn't enough injera for the sauce. The price/performance ratio isn't right for me. In my opinion, this meal isn't worth the price.

This place was by far one the best experiences I've ever had and using my hands to eat at a restaurant was definitely a first for me. The atmosphere and decor was just gorgeous and the waitress we had was so friendly and welcoming. Now lets talk about the food! I honestly had no idea what to expect because I had never had authentic African food before but the flavours were beyond amazing and the different stews we got on our plate had different spices, heat levels and texture the meats in some of them were tender and the flatbreads were so good! Definitely recommend if you want a unique experience.

I can only agree with the other reviews. The staff was super friendly, the food was excellent, and the atmosphere was cozy. We'll definitely be back.

We came here as a family for dinner and were all thrilled with the excellent food, the strikingly beautiful interior, and the pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant. We were particularly impressed by the attentive and very friendly staff. We would love to come back!

The Desert Flower is a definite recommendation! Everything is just perfect! A beautifully decorated little restaurant with very friendly staff and incredibly delicious food and drinks! We're already looking forward to our next visit!

Love your work guys, this was definitely a one of a kind experience

We were very impressed. Beautiful ambiance, very friendly staff, and really good food. We'll definitely be back.

It was a wonderful evening at the Wüstenblume. The restaurant's ambiance was decorated with great attention to detail. The team is very hospitable; we felt completely at home and welcomed. The food, from appetizer to dessert, was a delight, especially because you eat with your fingers. The special highlight of our evening was the spontaneous birthday serenade for my boyfriend. What a lovely surprise! Thank you so much for this wonderful and extraordinary experience! We would love to come back and recommend you to others.

10/10 experience! Both the service and the food were absolutely world-class! I can honestly only recommend it.

WOW!! I've NEVER experienced anything so friendly, especially child-friendly! I can recommend it 100%. The chef was super attentive, even washed the children's hands, and we were 100% welcome. The food was amazing; I can't fault it. WE'LL BE AGAIN!

We were there on a Saturday evening. We reserved a table. The reception was pleasant, and we were seated immediately. Taking our order and receiving our food was quick. The only thing to keep in mind is that you eat with your hands, which can be difficult with some dishes. The drinks were delicious. The atmosphere was nice, but very cramped compared to the neighbors.

Undoubtedly delicious, but in my opinion, overpriced for the food. A cutlery alternative would definitely be appreciated, as not everything is easily accessible with flatbread. A nice ambiance in itself, but you sit too close together and overhear all the conversations at the neighboring tables, whether you want to or not. Therefore, not 5 stars.

The food was very tasty and the staff was very nice

If you could give six stars, it would also be justified for this beautiful small restaurant, with its employees, who were hard to beat in terms of friendliness.

Highly recommended! Warm welcome, attentive service, and the ambiance is worth seeing. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

The Desert Flower offers authentic African cuisine in a modern atmosphere with neon accents and African imagery – even jungle sounds in the restroom! The dining room may be quite small and somewhat dark, but it's cozy. The food was excellent: tender chicken with fufu, Somali rice, and a deliciously aromatic peanut sauce. A highlight was the spectacular dry ice presentation for the main course. Those who like can eat with their hands in the traditional way – cutlery is available upon request. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and we felt completely at home. We particularly recommend the Luqiman (sweet dough balls with Nutella and coconut) and the Desert Flower cocktail. Be sure to make a reservation in advance!

I've eaten there three times now, and each time I'm impressed by the delicious food, the very friendly service, and the beautiful ambiance. I'll definitely go back and can definitely recommend it.

We really enjoyed it. The service was very friendly. The food was excellent. We'll be back.

I can definitely recommend this restaurant. The food was delicious, well-seasoned, and the service was extremely friendly and attentive. If I'm ever in Fulda again, I'll definitely stop here again (reservations are recommended).

The food was delicious and the service was really nice! Although I had problems paying via PayPal, the staff was friendly and resolved the issues very quickly!

We went to the Wüstenblume for dinner at short notice on the recommendation of friends. The restaurant, the two owners, their service, the food, and the ambiance were truly impeccable. The food was extremely tasty and the service was excellent. Everything was thought of, and the time was very pleasant. We would be happy to return as guests!

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. Very friendly staff and the food... sooooo delicious! Thank you.

Absolutely great place with great service!🫶🏻 we'll be back

The food was delicious. However, we had to wait a long time for it. This, combined with the stuffy air, made the wait unpleasant. However, the service was super friendly. You're greeted right at the entrance and given helpful advice when ordering. The shop is a real eye-catcher. The decor is well-coordinated. Everything is fancy.

It was amaaazinggg! The waitress was really nice and kind, you could really tell she loved working here. The food was a whole experience, everything was cooked fresh and it was delicious 😋. The restaurant it’s beautiful and the prices made totally sense. It’s affordable. You don’t only get to eat but also to have a good experience and a memorable moment. Good job. 👏🏻

The food was excellent, the atmosphere was great, and the service was very friendly. Overall, we had a great experience at this restaurant.

The Wüstenblume restaurant in Fulda is a true highlight for lovers of African cuisine. The dishes are freshly prepared, aromatically seasoned, and served with great attention to detail. The extraordinary ambiance, inspired by African elements and a touch of the jungle, makes a visit a special experience. The service is friendly and attentive, ensuring you feel completely at home. If you appreciate authentic African cuisine and want to immerse yourself in another world, this is the place for you. Be sure to make a reservation in advance – seats are in high demand!

Everything was positive throughout. The food was excellent and the staff very attentive. Highly recommended :) Despite the stated opening hours of 10:00 PM daily, you can relax and enjoy your meal and order even after 10:00 PM.

Wüstenblume Fulda – A Culinary Highlight The African restaurant Wüstenblume in Fulda impresses with authentic cuisine, lovingly prepared dishes such as injera, fufu, and bris, and a unique jungle ambiance. The service is warm and attentive, and the food is fresh and aromatic. If you want to experience and enjoy African flair, this is the place for you. A definite recommendation – reservations well in advance are worthwhile!

Delicious dishes from various African countries with wonderful spices, accompanied by drinks and cocktails. Everything is lovingly and exceptionally prepared! An unusual and bold concept: eating with your hands to convey even more authenticity (cutlery is available upon request). The overall ambiance is harmonious, and you feel at home right from the start. Always happy to return! 👍

very nice service and the food is extremely yummy and the atmosphere and ambiente is really special I liked the music in the toilet and the effect of the dry ice a nice special effect for me as someone how knows some other good restaurants in Fulda this is my favorite.

We had African food for the first time today and can only recommend it to everyone. Absolutely delicious. It's unusual to eat without cutlery, but that's part of the experience, and we enjoyed it. We'll definitely be back.

It was a try, and I'm thrilled. Everything worked out perfectly. Thank you.

The food was amazing, from appetizer to dessert! The drinks were also top-notch. Add to that the friendly and attentive staff and the very pleasant atmosphere. We really enjoyed the evening and would be happy to come back anytime. It's truly worth every cent :)

*A culinary highlight in Fulda – highly recommended!* The *Desert Flower* restaurant in Fulda offers a unique experience for anyone who wants to enjoy authentic African cuisine in a lovingly designed setting. The dishes – from traditional injera with various sauces to spicy fufu with chicken leg – are delicious and beautifully presented. We arrived on a Friday evening shortly before the kitchen closed – and yet we were welcomed with open arms and spontaneously put together some fantastic platters. An absolute wow moment, as you rarely experience such warmth and flexibility. The attentive and friendly service is particularly noteworthy. The staff take their time, explain each dish with enthusiasm, and ensure that you feel welcome from the very first moment. The ambiance is stylish and detailed, the atmosphere relaxed and inviting. Those who like are welcome to eat traditionally with their hands – this makes the experience even more authentic and vibrant. For anyone looking for something special: The Desert Flower is a real insider tip. We'll definitely be back! 🌍✨

Unreserved recommendation – friendly, dedicated service, great concept, delicious food and drinks, friendly chef, felt like being invited to a friend's house... Thank you very much and please keep up the good work!

I have to admit that I haven't been this impressed with a meal in a long time. It was really incredibly tasty and we tried everything on the menu. The chicken was nice and tender and definitely recommended. I particularly liked the rice - it had a flavor that I wasn't familiar with, but I really liked it. The service was also very friendly overall and explained everything well. But what I enjoyed most was eating with my hands (you can also use cutlery). It was something new, and even though you weren't used to it, you quickly got used to it. I will definitely go there again and highly recommend it to everyone. Thank you for the great experience!

A big thank you to the entire Desert Flower team! The food was really excellent, prepared with so much love and authentic taste. We were very positively surprised and felt completely comfortable. The atmosphere is just as warm as the service. We would be happy to come back and recommend you with full conviction!

A real insider tip in Fulda! The Wüstenblume impresses with a warm atmosphere, loving furnishings and a culinary offering that impresses not only with its freshness but also with its authenticity. The dishes are prepared with a lot of love - the oriental dishes in particular are a taste experience that you won't quickly forget. The staff is warm, attentive and makes you feel welcome from the first moment. You immediately notice: there is soul in this. Whether for a relaxed dinner, a special evening or simply tea in a quiet environment - the desert flower is an enrichment for Fulda. Clear recommendation for anyone looking for good food, a relaxed atmosphere and a bit of desert flair in the middle of the city!

Very nice, helpful, dedicated service from Nadine. Small, very well designed menu with pictures for each meal. Eating with your fingers is expressly encouraged. Cutlery is also available upon request. Cozy little restaurant. Gladly again Thank you

Absolutely recommended!💯 Everything is just right here: delicious food, a beautiful location with attention to detail & the staff is just great! Unfortunately, it's not that often anymore that everything fits - everything has always been perfect here and I'd love to come back'🥰

We ate "Injera with Signi and all sauces" for two people and also ordered an extra portion of warm flatbread. The standard practice is to eat with your fingers, but you can also use cutlery if you wish. Of course there is also a sink in the restaurant room to wash your hands before and after eating 😉 The service was very courteous and instructed you in the special features of the restaurant, such as that no alcoholic drinks are served in the restaurant.

Great location with exceptional flair. First class service, very friendly and warm! Interesting and tasty selection of food. Feel-good restaurant!!!

Good African cuisine and nice setting but bad commercial experience. Payment only in cash but this is only announced in small letters on the card in German. During the addition, by emptying all my small coins, I was missing 1€. They forced me at 10 p.m. to go look for an ATN on the other side of the city to bring them the 1€ coin. Really not commercial. Damage.

I ordered fufu with chicken thighs and peanut sauce. Unfortunately, the food overall was very disappointing. The chicken leg was good, but the peanut sauce didn't taste good at all. The “fufu” was particularly disappointing – it was hard, crumbly and more reminiscent of pressed rice starch than real fufu. Overall the taste was very poor, especially considering the price. We were also offered bread on the phone, but without any indication of the price. In the end we charged €5.60 for two wraps, which is completely overpriced. Overall a very disappointing experience. I wouldn't order here again.

I can only recommend the restaurant. The food is super delicious and it's a completely new experience to eat with your fingers. The service is very nice and open, she gives tips and is friendly. Inside it looks very cool, lots of colors and very unusual furnishings. Very great, I can only recommend it. :)

Ich habe Fufu mit Hähnchenkeule und Erdnusssoße bestellt. Leider war das Essen insgesamt sehr enttäuschend. Die Hähnchenkeule war zwar gut, aber die Erdnusssoße hat überhaupt nicht geschmeckt. Besonders enttäuschend war das “Fufu” – es war hart, bröckelig und erinnerte eher an gepresste Reisstärke als an richtiges Fufu. Geschmacklich insgesamt sehr mangelhaft, vor allem in Anbetracht des Preises. Zusätzlich wurde uns am Telefon ein Brot angeboten, allerdings ohne Hinweis auf den Preis. Am Ende wurden dafür 5,60 € berechnet – für zwei Wraps, was völlig überteuert ist. Insgesamt ein sehr enttäuschendes Erlebnis. Ich würde hier nicht noch einmal bestellen.

Very centrally located restaurant. Very nice and detailed interior. Very friendly and attentive service. The food selection offers something for everyone. Price-performance ratio is great.

That was really tasty and the service was excellent 👍

very good food and a nice staff , it was good experience

Very tasty food, extremely friendly and attentive staff, very tasteful decor

Wonderful atmosphere and really nice service with excellent food! When can you eat with your fingers? ☺️

Had dry ice show and candlelight… 10/ 10 star(s)

A beautiful, small restaurant. It's always busy and I recommend making a reservation in advance, but if you forget it's no big deal. The food is fantastic. You eat with your hands and no one looks at you wrong if it doesn't work out perfectly right from the start. The waiters are very courteous and friendly, have good taste and can help choose dishes. The recommendations were perfect for us.

We had dinner at Wüstenblume today on the occasion of our wedding anniversary and had a very nice evening. The food was very tasty, the service was super friendly and there was even a very attentive surprise for the two of us from the staff, which made the evening perfect. Thank you very much and see you again soon :)

Everything was great! Very tasty food, nice service and nice atmosphere.

An absolute insider tip! The food at Desert Flower was simply incredible – authentic, freshly prepared and full of flavor. I can particularly recommend the Bris Bajio, Sabaayad Suqaar and Fufu with peanut sauce, they were all taste explosions! The spices were perfectly balanced - spicy, but not too hot, and simply wonderfully aromatic. The ambience was also very pleasant – warm, welcoming and furnished with great attention to detail. You immediately feel welcome. The service was super friendly, attentive and happy to explain what was behind the different dishes. I will definitely come back and can only warmly recommend this restaurant - a piece of Africa in the middle of Fulda!

Super nice staff. Delicious food.

My friend from Munich and I (from Osnabrück) met in Fulda this weekend. We had a really great first evening in the Wüstenblume! The food was delicious and the staff was remarkably friendly! We felt very comfortable! Thanks for the lovely evening!

Delicious food and super nice staff!

From entering the restaurant to the delicious, traditional meal, everything was perfect. The service was always friendly and accommodating, we didn't have to wait long for the food (that alone deserves its own entry here - 10/10) and the atmosphere was great. We'll definitely be regulars!
