Desperado Mexikanisches Steakhouse — Restaurant in Mönchgut-Granitz

For a German "Mexican" restaurant, this place wasn't completely horrible. The food was, however, very Deutschified: everything was covered in parsley, the only beans used were kidney beans, the salsa was more like ketchup with a few chunks of veggies, and they had squash in the fajitas. They used imitation Doritos as the chips that they served with guacamole rather than plain, salted corn chips. The nachos were actually covered in a decent amount of melted cheese, making the best nachos that I've had yet in Germany. The steak in the fajitas was well cooked and high quality but chopped into tiny pieces that aren't the right size for fajitas. They used Jose Cuervo in their margaritas, which is a slight improvement over the Sierra tequila that is ubiquitous in Germany. Having said all of this, the food still tasted decent even though it was neither authentic Mexican nor...

I'm giving this place 1 star for the friendly staff and service but sadly that's the only thing I can say that's good about it.

As a Mexican who has known Mexican food all her life this isn't even remotely close. I don't know how this place has such great reviews... probably cause not a single person has tasted real Mexican food...

Anyways... their idea of "chips and salsa" was Doritos and a very sad tomato sauce.. Then comes the burrito I waited nearly 30 minutes for... it was a terrible mess of random veggies so poorly wrapped I had to eat it with a fork and knife... (my ancestors were rolling in their graves) and to top it off it's overpriced!

I'm sorry but this was NOT Mexican food... not even close! You're better of driving to Chipotle in Frankfurt to get an idea of what it's supposed...

One of the best stakes we've had. Black Angus filet stake, exactly as ordered: medium rare. It was juicy, tender with a perfect crust on top. The port-wine-suose was well balanced with nice acidity and sweetness. The fried veggies were crispy and full of flavour. There was grain pepper and salt available to season it all to your liking. The wine selection was not too wide but well chosen and reasonably priced. We took a Mexican Cabernet Sauvignon and it was very good. Served at the right temperature and well presented. The desert (chockolate lava cake) accompanied with a glass of Henessy Cognac and a very good espresso made it all. The service was professional and very friendly. All in all, a PERFECT exceperience! In my opinion the best restaurant...
