This has been our favorite restaurant in Harburg since we moved here 6 years ago until today. We always emjoy the sevice and food but today...
We ordered the VARIATION „SILO 16“ as appetizer. It tastes good like always. This we wouldnt complain.
My son loved the kids menu magarita pizza and was very excited about it. NORMALLY it came like a smily face with ears(somehow like a mickimouse) Today it was just a normal pizza but smaller size. The server did appoligize for the pizza guy who forogt its supposed to be a kids menu. BUT they didnt even try to fix it. So I asked if they could at least give us some olive and tomato for us to make the face on the pizza. As parent , I dont really like to see my childchen to be disappointed.
My main was "LINGUINE ALLO SCOGLIO" which is clams pasta with white wine. I was expecting this "taste of the sea" from this plate. (If you ever eaten or cooked it before you know what I mean) it was a whole plate of clams and mussels BUT somehow it tasted very very very blend. First I thought maybe some salt might help to enhance the flavor but it didnt. so I ask my hubby and my mom to try small bite and tell me how they think. They were also agreed that it is missing the taste of this dish. I explained to the server and asked if the seasfood were all frozen, might because of that so it lost its taste... I grew up in Taiwan, which is a island. We ate a lot of seafood. If this dish was using so much mussel and clams, it shouldnt taste like this. I am sorry but I didnt want to even eat this dish to stuff up my belly. So I give it back. I was really disappointed because so far I always enjoyed my food here at Silo 16.
So here comes the bill, the dish I didnt really touch was still on it. First the server was taking back said he forgot to ask the Hostess about how to deal with the dish whice I sent back. At the end it is still on the bill, they offer us schnapst(I am 4 months pregnant) or Coffee(it was almost sleeping time...)We want neither of them. My husband was asking the hostess about it. But she was very much (I would say) arrogant, said this is the first time we have heard of it. ok....but this is how you solve the problem. maybe my point was not strong enough?! I dont know.. but her attitude made us decided that we would never visit Silo 16 again..it was once our...
Read moreFood very nicely done. Unfortunately the service ruined the experience.
Our party of 5 had a reservation. Though there was plenty of staff around and no other guests waiting, we were weren't seated for about five minutes.
Then we ordered. For drinks, we ordered beer, cola, and tap waters. The wait staff took the order and upon delivering the drinks said something along the lines of "we don't serve tap water, it's not like in Asia." This was shockingly racist and made the rest of the evening uncomfortable for our party. She brought bottled water to us instead (without our consent, but at least we got water).
The discontent is two-fold: (1) tap water is certainly available, it was just not served by choice; (2) tap water is not an Asian thing, and it was absurd to blame their refusal to serve it on Asia. It made all of the guests uncomfortable, Asian and white alike.
I cannot bring...
Read moreGestern zum ersten Mal im Silo 16 gewesen und zwar auf Empfehlung.
Ohne eine Tischreservierung gemacht zuhaben, sind wir einfach mal zu viert dort hinein spaziert. Der erste Eindruck: Wow! Was für ein großes Restaurant. Überaus freundlich wurden wir von der Chefin begrüßt und an einen runden Tisch begleitet. Zeit zum Umschauen: Der Blick bleibt an der Decke hängen. Im Eingangsbereich unter einer sehr hohen Kuppel befinden sich Malereien. Ähnlich dem Caesars Palace. Aber der Clou sind die noch erhaltenen riesigen Silo-Schächte, unter denen man sitzt. Die Lage direkt am Wasser mit der schönen Terrasse, hat schon jetzt Lust auf einen weiteren Besuch bei schönem Wetter gemacht. Insgesamt sehr sauber und großzügig eingerichtet. Sehr schön. Zum Essen haben wir uns für die Antipasti Variationen und zusätzlich eine Portion Vitello Tonnato entschieden. Ich kann gar nicht sagen, wie oft ich schon Antipasti gegessen habe. Doch diese waren anders und unglaublich lecker. Dazu gehörten Tomate mit Mozzarellaschaum, gebackene Aubergine, Mini Bruschetta, warme Garnelen auf unglaublich gutem Ratatouille, Carpaccio, Thunfisch Tartar, gebackenes Ravioli mit wildem Brokkoli und Vitello. Alles wohltemperitiert und köstlich. Beim Vitello vom Kalbsfilet !!! (Super lecker), waren die gebackenen und warmen Kapernäpfel eine echte Überraschung. Toll.
Hauptgänge: Rinderfilet mit Steinpilzkruste. Kannste nicht besser machen.
Tagliatelle am Tisch im Parmesan gewendet, mit Rinderfilet. Alles auf den Punkt.
Tagliatelle in Pernodsoße mit Garnelen. Muss ich Nachkochen. Himmlisch
Garnelen Aglio e Olio mit Salat. Was für eine Portion! Und der einfache Salat war so gut, dass er extra erwähnt werden muss.
Als Nachtisch eine wunderschöne Dessertvariation. Alles in Top Qualität!
Fazit: Bester Restaurantbesuch seit ewigen Jahren! Bestes Preis-Leistungverhältnis! Bitte unbedingt alle einmal ausprobieren! Aber das Reservieren bitte nicht vergessen.
