Pizza was solid and the cocktails hit the spot. Staff didn&#39;t rush me, which I appreciated since I was on a lunch break. Place is right by the station, so super easy to pop in and out. Got a bit noisy when the train came through, but inside it&#39;s actually chill. Good spot for a quick bite if you&#39;re in the area.

The owners are super friendly, made us feel right at home. I had the fish and it was really good. Nice little spot for a casual catch-up with friends.

Great spot for a casual dinner with friends. The Turkish food is solid and prices are fair. Staff were nice but looked a bit overwhelmed during the rush. Takeout was quick and easy though 👍

Solid pork knuckle, crispy skin, decent portion. Service was quick and friendly. Dessert had some burnt spots, slightly off. Fine for a casual dinner, nothing more.

Stopped by for dinner on a weekday. Place is tucked away in the old town, easy to miss. Had the lamb and a Greek salad. Both were fresh, well-seasoned. Portions are decent. Bill came to about 40 euros for two with drinks. Service was efficient, no complaints. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something reliable.

The truffle pasta was rich, the duck breast cooked just right. You can tell they care about the fish and meat dishes. Only thing&mdash;when it gets busy, the acoustics get a bit lively. Hard to hear across the table. Still, the food carried the evening for me.

Food was decent, honestly. Had the schnitzel and it came out hot and crispy. Portion size was fair for the price, not huge but not stingy either. Service was a bit cold though, nothing rude, just not super warm. If you&#39;re after a quick bite without small talk, it works. Probably wouldn&#39;t go out of my way for it again.

Plenty of parking right in front, which is always a plus. Food was solid and the price was fair for what you get. Quick in and out for a lunch break.

The pork knuckle was spot on&mdash;crispy skin, tender inside. I had their wheat beer at &euro;7.50, which felt a bit much for the size, but it paired nicely with the meal. Service was friendly enough, nothing to complain about. Prices lean high, but you&#39;re paying for decent quality.

Stopped by for dinner, place has that cozy Italian feel. Service was friendly, kinda international vibe. Got the pasta, pretty solid. Nothing mind-blowing but decent for the price. Menu&#39;s got all the usual classics. Wouldn&#39;t mind coming back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Food was fine, standard McDonald&#39;s stuff. Got a decent deal through the app, so can&#39;t complain about the price. Service was quick, in and out in like 10 minutes. Store looked clean too. Nothing special, but for a fast bite it does the job. Good enough for a lunch break.

Came on a public holiday, got lucky with a table. Veggie pizza was solid&mdash;artichokes and crispy crust did it for me. Herb butter on the breadsticks is worth it.

For &euro;33, the 3-course menu really surprised me. Portions are decent and the cooking feels way above that price point. I had the fish dish&mdash;cooked just right, flaky and moist. Place was pretty busy on a Thursday night, but service kept up fine. Already thinking about when I can go back to try the rest of the menu.

Nice spot for a drink. Kids liked the play area. Live music was decent, staff took requests without fuss. Drinks fine, nothing crazy. Good enough for a quick stop if you&#39;re in the area.

The gluten-free pasta was really good, you could tell they put effort into it. Nice spot for a catch-up with friends, just book a table first.

Loved the loungers outside &mdash; perfect for a lazy drink when the sun&rsquo;s out. Menu looked good on paper, though our food took a while to come. Not mad about it, just something to keep in mind if you&rsquo;re starving. I&rsquo;d still go back for the vibe alone.

The French onion soup was the standout. Rich, deep flavor, proper amount of cheese. Rest of the meal was decent, nothing wrong with it. Service was quick and friendly, no complaints there. I&#39;d come back for that soup alone.

The homemade cheesecake was the highlight. Fresh, creamy, not too sweet. Worth stopping by if you&#39;re near the market square.

The scampi with potato slices was the standout &mdash; properly cooked, not rubbery at all. Easy to find, and the staff handled our English without any hassle.

Great spot to catch up with friends over dinner. Service was super attentive and the place felt bright and cozy. Solid five stars from me 🌟

The 200g cheeseburger here is solid. Organic meat comes through in the taste. Probably one of the better ones in Essen.

The chef actually came out to tweak a dish for my dietary needs. No fuss, no eye-rolls. That kind of flexibility is rare. Service was quick too, and they take cards. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area.

The Mexican burger was really good. Staff let us hang around with our wine after we finished, no rush at all. Nice change.

The surprise menu with the pear dish and wine pairing was really nice. &euro;32.50 felt fair for what you got. Service was friendly and attentive without hovering.

First time here and honestly the meat was so tender. Really well seasoned too, not dry at all. Portion size felt right for what you pay. Service was quick even though it seemed busy. Would come back if I&#39;m in the area again.
