Pleasantly surprised by this place. I was a bit skeptical as my wife suggestedit, however ended up really liking the food. A heavily Persian influenced vegan/vegetarian restaurant, and that is exactly what made it interesting for me. No we did not go for pizzas as there were more interesting things in the menu. Service was particularly good. Beer / Malzbier selection quite nice. Atmosphere also pleasant. Only minus I see is the place being rather small and tables close to each other. I would however return to this place. Cash only place Parking can be tricky on a Friday evening in the area.

Today I ordered Gheyme, especial day offer. Fist of all, it was incredible delicious!! It was exceeded my expectations. As you can see on pictures it was so worthy to eat because of the food material, amount of food in the plate and the taste. Even I like to describe the environment and atmosphere of zodiac restaurant such as polite waiters, the greatest inner design and so on! They have so many offer between Tuesday and Thursday with just follow the Instagram Account.

I do not discover 5-star restaurants that often, but this one clearly is one! The menu could not be more original, the dishes are extremely tasty and bring out different and new flavors compared to what can be found in all other "mainstream" places. And being served by such a friendly and caring waitress can only make you enjoy this delicious food even more! Thank you to the whole Zodiac team for this fantastic experience 😃

Positives: the place is nice and the restaurant people are also nice. Negative: Food quality is really not original or something to be noted. They have from different lands but in reality it is all Iranian style and comparing to the price it is not what I expected. Also the amount of served food on the dish is very low and you may need to order again another one or several other things. This was mainly problematic as I joined two guests of mine and paid what I could pay for another restaurant within better quality and quantity. Drinks: I ordered a coffee and it barely had the taste of coffee rather more water like. It seems they don't have a proper coffee machine and the cost of coffee is almost double to places where you can get a good quality coffee. Payment: It is very pity they do not offer card payment and you also don't receive a real bill. I find it much problematic. Overall, in my view it is more of decoration and nice gesture of the people who works but this is not all what I personally expect. In restaurant it is is expected to have a good taste of the food and drink and to have a fair size especially with the costs they represent...

Heute wird das letzte Mal gewesen sein, dass wir jemals hier essen oder besser gesagt, versuchen, zu essen.

Um es vorweg zu nehmen, wir sind seit ĂŒber 15 Jahren bis zum Besitzer*innenwechsel 2020 Stammkunden des Zodiac gewesen. Es war mit Abstand eines unserer Lieblings-Restaurants in Essen und Umgebung. Das Zodiac ist mittlerweile allerdings nur noch ein Schatten seiner frĂŒheren Selbst, was den Service, die AtmosphĂ€re und die QualitĂ€t des Essens angeht. Das Zodiac sollte heute nicht mehr diesen Namen tragen dĂŒrfen, denn es hat nichts mit dem alten Restaurant zu tun. Wenn ich 0 Sterne vergeben könnte, ich wĂŒrde es tun.

Was heute passiert ist: Wir waren vor Öffnung am Restaurant und haben gewartet. Als sie geöffnet haben, haben wir uns draußen hingesetzt wĂ€hrend andere GĂ€ste drinnen Platz genommen haben. Nachdem wir 10 Minuten nicht beachtet worden sind, haben wir noch einmal auf uns aufmerksam gemacht und gemeldet, dass wir draußen sitzen und gerne die Speisekarte hĂ€tten. Darauf wurde nur mit "Achso" geantwortet und dass wir gleich die Karte bekĂ€men. Weitere Minuten vergingen, in denen alle zustĂ€ndigen Personen miteinander gequatscht haben, statt uns die Karte zu bringen, und das, obwohl wir in Sicht- und Hörweite saßen. Man ignorierte uns schlichtweg. Als wir zum dritten Mal meldeten, dass wir bestellen möchten und eigentlich auch die ersten GĂ€ste waren, wurden wir erst vertröstet und dann wurde auf die schnippischste Art und Weise der Versuch unternommen, unsere Bestellung aufzunehmen. Hierzu muss man sagen, dass die zustĂ€ndige Person meine Begleitung, die mit ihr gesprochen hat, stehen lassen hat, um zu mir an den Tisch zu kommen und zu sagen "Na bitte, was wollt ihr." Daraufhin sind wir gegangen und kommen nicht wieder.

Dies ist nicht das erste Mal seit dem Besitzer*innenwechsel, dass wir so unfreundlich behandelt oder gar ignoriert worden sind. Da denke ich an ein Mal, an dem wir frĂŒh dort waren, mit Reservierung, und Pizza bestellt haben (nach 30 Minuten warten, dass man unsere Bestellung aufnimmt...), und uns nach weiteren 60 Minuten (!) mitgeteilt wurde, dass es etwas lĂ€nger dauern wird. Ein weiteres Mal wurden wir ebenfalls draußen schlichtweg ignoriert, dann vergessen, dann frech behandelt, und dann war das Essen auch nicht heiß, als ob es zu lange am Service gestanden hat. Einmal haben wir Pizza vorbestellen wollen, zum Abholen. Wir haben angerufen und am Telefon wurde gesagt, vorbestellen und abholen ginge nicht. Also sind wir hingefahren, haben bestellt und 30 Minuten gewartet. Ein anderer Kunde kam nach uns und bekam eher seine Pizza. Auf meine Nachfrage hin, wie das sein könne, sagte man mir, er habe vorbestellt... Dazu muss ich wohl nicht mehr viel sagen.

Die neue GeschĂ€ftsfĂŒhrung scheint sich auf dem alten Ruf und Namen des Zodiac ausruhen zu wollen, ohne auch nur im Ansatz das bieten zu können, was das alte Zodiac ausgemacht hat: Freundlichkeit, willkommen fĂŒhlen, leckeres Essen, guten Service, eine schöne und herzliche, warme AtmosphĂ€re. Das alles fehlt. Zudem scheinen die Mitarbeitenden im Service nicht zu wissen, wie man vernĂŒnftig und respektvoll mit seinen Mitmenschen umgeht. Wenn man so viel Geld fĂŒr simple Speisen nimmt, sollte man wohl wenigstens wie ein willkommener Gast behandelt werden.

Nein Danke und...

We arrived at 2010 and asked in English whether there was a table. The friendly smaller and younger waiter who could speak English told us we could return in half an hour. We returned 2040 and the older waiter with the beard and glasses who could not speak English gave us a small table next to the main door where there was a draft while there were clearly other tables free - he told us (he did not speak English, only German) we could not sit at the other table while it was free all the time while we were sitting there. Next he “forgot” to bring some garlic butter and generally was rude all the time. I think the guy is the new owner who other people also have mentioned as rude in reviews here. It also seemed to us he was treating the younger waiter in a rude way. The food was actually pretty good, four stars, but the waiter was zero stars therefore I...
