The fried chicken is solid, but the spice level really sneaks up on you. Portions felt a bit smaller than before, and it was pretty chilly inside. Pickled radish on the side was a nice touch though.

Went back for the tasting event&mdash;staff actually remembered me. That never happens. Cozy spot, felt like hanging out at a friend&#39;s place.

The risotto milanese was the standout. Cooked properly, creamy, not heavy. Service was attentive without hovering. Place is easy to get to, right in the middle of things. Prices are fair for what you get. I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m in Heidelberg again.

Loved the Indian decor here&mdash;felt really warm and inviting. Staff was polite too, didn&rsquo;t have to wait long for anything.

Decent coffee and cake, though service was a bit slow. Cash only, which caught me off guard. Fine for a quick stop if you&#39;re not in a rush.

The Hong Kong rice was exactly what I wanted, cheap and pretty filling. Noodles were decent too. Place is a bit cramped though, not much room between tables. Fine if you just want a quick bite and don&#39;t plan to sit around for long. I&#39;d go back for the rice.

The late-night spaghetti deal is what keeps me coming back. For the price, the portion is honestly generous&mdash;enough to fill you up without feeling ripped off. It&#39;s not fancy, just simple pasta when everything else is shut. Place has that proper local Heidelberg feel, nothing touristy about it. Good if you&#39;re hungry and don&#39;t wanna spend much.

We stopped by for dinner and the staff were really friendly. They even brought out a complimentary appetizer and limoncello at the end. Pasta tasted fresh, pretty good overall. Place was a bit busy but fine. Decent spot if you&#39;re in the area.

The staff actually remember your name after the second visit. That&rsquo;s rare for a place this busy. Pizza came out hot, crust was decent. Pasta was fine too, but honestly for the price I expected a bigger portion. Still, it&rsquo;s become our regular spot. Can&rsquo;t complain much when the service is that personal.

Big portions, fair prices. Ordered a couple paneer dishes&mdash;fresh, solid chunks. Enough for three easily. Service was friendly, nothing to complain about.

The pork schnitzel was actually decent. Crispy outside, juicy inside, seasoned well. For a cafe right on the main square, I didn&#39;t expect that quality. Cash only though, which caught me off guard. Had to run to the ATM around the corner. The meat itself made it worth the hassle.

Solid spot right in the city center. Nothing fancy, but the prices are fair for what you get. Had a decent glass of wine with my meal, no complaints.

Had lunch here last week. Tagliatelle with black truffle was decent, pasta cooked right. Portion size though... for what you pay, I expected a bit more on the plate. Place was nice and cool inside, which was a plus. Not mad about it, just wish the serving matched the price tag.

Stopped by for a late lunch. The apple strudel was the best part, honestly. Meat was tender too, cooked properly. Staff were friendly enough. Place is surrounded by greenery, which is nice if you can get a seat outside. Just wish the service was a bit quicker, but I wasn&#39;t in a rush anyway.

The pizza was really good - thin crust, just the right amount of char. I sat near the window and the light made the whole place feel calm. Staff left me alone until I needed them, which I appreciated. Only thing: it got a bit loud later in the evening. Still, solid spot for a quick dinner.

Curries were solid and the portions fair for the price. Nothing fancy, but a decent spot if you&#39;re craving Thai in Heidelberg.

The shawarma platter for two was huge. Plenty of meat, decent seasoning, easily enough for three actually. Location is convenient, right near the main square. Service was quick even though it was busy. Only minor thing, the fries got a bit soggy by the time we finished. Still, solid spot for a casual meal.

Went twice during my Heidelberg stay. Potato soup and sausage salad were solid, but that homemade salad dressing is what I keep thinking about. Second time I had the Hirschgulasch with sp&auml;tzle&mdash;also really good. The room felt warm and cozy, plants on the tables made it nice to sit in.

Loved the old-school vibe, felt like a proper local spot. Just remember it&#39;s cash only, which caught me off guard. Service was on point though.

We showed up with a big group without a reservation and they handled it fine. Outdoor seating is really nice, food was solid. Just a bit slow getting everything out.

I highly recommend this place for its cool atmosphere and interesting wine selection. The tapas are great, and the service is generally friendly and competent.

The currywurst here is solid. Sauce has a good kick, not too sweet. Fries were decent but could&#39;ve been crispier. Fine for a quick bite.

Cozy spot, I&rsquo;ll give it that. Sat near the window with my laptop for a bit, and the vibe was calm enough to actually focus. Coffee did the job, carrot cake was decent&mdash;not too sweet, which I liked. Only thing: chairs aren&rsquo;t super comfy for long sittings. But fine for a quick catch-up or some solo work.
