They always seem a little overwhelmed, but their friendliness and charm are unbeatable. The food is amazing, meticulously prepared, and delicious. My only criticism would be the lighting. For such small spaces, wall lamps would be preferable to central ceiling lights. This would make the room feel larger and brighter. It's always a bit too dark, and energy-saving bulbs tend to be rather dreary than radiant. Some tables are almost completely dark… But overall, a gem.
Addendum (December 26, 2025) to the previous review. We visited for Christmas dinner after making a reservation in advance (absolutely necessary for holidays). We ordered wild boar roast. The portion was generous and very tasty. Delicious dumplings with red cabbage and wild boar roast with a very pleasant gamey flavor that wasn't overpowering.
Excellent value for money.
Highly recommended with a reservation.
A very cozy inn on the edge of the forest. We went there as a family for lunch. The place was very busy, so a reservation is strongly advised. Very friendly service and only short wait times for our order. The pre-warmed plates were a nice touch, so the food stayed warm for a long time. Very tasty food, well-seasoned, and the meat was incredibly tender. If you have a big appetite, you shouldn't skip the small appetizer.
This inn is highly recommended.
The imitation mozzarella on the vegan pizza had an extremely sour taste, like Gouda from a Shell gas station, and the consistency of cream cheese. When the next table wondered what Fior di Latte was, the reviews were clear to me… The second pizza had spinach instead of broccoli. 0/5 stars.
We were greeted warmly and a table was prepared for us even though we hadn't made a reservation.
Unfortunately, we had to wait quite a while for the food, and it wasn't piping hot, more like lukewarm. Having only one slice of bread per person was a bit unusual.
What a pleasant surprise! We had an excellent dining experience here. The sushi is outstanding, made with super fresh fish and perfectly prepared rolls. Everything tasted fresh and high-quality.
We were also positively surprised by the Thai dishes, which were full of flavor and clearly prepared with care. It’s great that the restaurant offers more than just sushi, and that these additional dishes are just as good.
Overall, the quality exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended if you’re in Cologne and looking for great sushi and delicious Asian cuisine. We would definitely come back!
Wonderful restaurant! Very cozy, delicious food, and very friendly service. Wide selection of dishes, both soups and main courses. Delicious beer. Thank you!
