January 2024
We visited the restaurant with 2 of my friends. The waiter first tried to sell us a bottle of wine, even though only one of us spoke about getting a glass. And he was just persuing the sell without letting me think of it or say anything.
When I asked about the wine menu he tried to avoid it. After I told him several times that I want to see the wine menu, he finally brought it.
He informed me, that the wine he was suggesting us was worth it of 30 euros. One not so cheap wine to be honest.
After we decided to do not get a bottle he took our orders a bit displeased.
I ordered the beef filett ( ordered medium) with thyme sauce potatos and grill veggies with salad which I upgraded for a Greek salad. Total cost 34 euros.
As appetisers we got some things for my friends that I could try due to gluten intolerance. So I can't say anything.
But we order the Feta in the oven with tomato and peppers.
I sweat to God when they Brough it on the table I thought it was a joke.
One slice of Feta, with 2 pieces of cherry tomato. 2 pieces of peperoni pepper and some olive slices.. Taste wise was good, was money worth it? Definitely not.
In one point the waiter points my friend and says, quite rude in my opinion, "you have been here before" and he does the same while pointing at me. And all this while addressing us "causally" with "du" something that I find really disrespectful as a costumer.
My disappointment continues when my food arrived. 2 thin layers, cause you can't call these pieces whey where literally thinner than my picky finger, of meat (max 100gr both combined) . 1 potato cut in half. 5 pieces of pepper and half(!?) Cherry tomato.
Some brown sauce on top and thats all. First I eat try the meat, dry with no flavour and nothing close to medium grilled.
The sauce was definitely not Thyme sauce. Probably just a regular brown sauce which brings me to my later problem.
The potato was at least a day or 2 old and just preheated which gave it a weird texture and taste. I mean if I wanted to eat 3 days old potatoes I would just stayed home. Not paying a ton of money for it
After we were done and we asked for the bill another waiter came, I guess he was trying to be "funny" but when my friend asked to pay some specific dishes that we order, he was standing next to her and leaning on the table. He just put the phone-like Maschine and saying loudly and multiple times to her " just press it" JUST PRESS IT " as if is her job to add the things in her bill.
We said goodbye and ready to leave we heard some comments about our appearance, apparently they were trying to be flirty just for fun by they end up being disgusting.
And even though this evening wasn't bad enough, I realised that even though in the menu was not mention, my food was with gluten in it, probably the brown sauce. So I spent the next 3 days, being in pain and bloated and having even trouble sleeping and eating. Which led me to loose a day of my work.
So for me, this restaurant is a no go. Even though when I visited few years ago the service and food were decent. This time is HUGE...
Read moreThis place is amazing. I would give it 10 stars if it was possible. These gladiators run a real restaurant! The preparation, drinks, efficiency, friendliness, food, and of course the ouzo at the end make it a true home fun.
I don’t want to be a hater, but often Germany is a “Service Desert” when it comes to customer service. These guys and gals will make you feel like you’re in another world (or at least Country) with their service.
I could keep writing and writing but the Ouzo is on its way! So the best thing you can do is come and check the restaurant out on your own! Make sure to make reservations because this place is ALWAYS popping. Of course, I never do and they ALWAYS make it work with a smile on their face. But let’s not press our...
Read moreGeleitet von den guten Bewertungen und auf der Suche nach einem guten Griechen, hatte ich für einen Geburtstag online ein paar Tische reserviert im Restaurant Achillion reserviert.
Als dann der Tag kam, war unsere Reservierung nicht mehr zu finden. Das stellte jedoch kein Problem dar. Wir waren kurz nach Eröffnung am Mittag im Lokal und haben im hinteren Bereich Plätze bekommen.
Das Restaurant ist schön eingerichtet. Es ist eine gute Mischung aus altmodisch und modern. An den Wänden hängen viele Bilder, bei denen man immer etwas entdecken kann. Alles ist sauber und ordentlich, so auch die WCs.
Als Vorspeise für alle hatten wir die Kalte Vorspeisenvariation sowie die Warme Vorspeisenvariation. Dazu gab es leckeres Brot. Die Vorspeisen selbst waren sehr unterschiedlich. Von Feta im Filoteig mit Honig bis zu Meeresfrüchten war alles dabei. Geschmacklich konnte mich vieles nicht überzeugen. Ein paar Aufstriche waren solide, ansonsten waren viele von uns enttäuscht.
Wir hatten viele verschiedene Gerichte. Alle kriege ich nicht zusammen. Hier mal ein paar und wie sie ankamen. Unter anderem gab es gefüllte Auberginen. Diede wurden leider nicht zu Ende gegessen, weil sie nicht überzeugt haben. Weiterhin hatte einer von uns die Penne mit der Hühnchenbrust, die lecker waren. Außerdem gab es Schweinespieße mit Pommes. Die Spieße waren okay, während die Pommes leider gar nicht gut waren. Ich hatte die Lammkottelets mit Ofengemüse. Das Gemüse war akzeptabel, die Koteletts hingegen waren lecker.
Zusammenfassend gesagt fanden wir das Essen im Schnitt solide, aber begeistert war keiner von uns.
Die Mitarbeiter waren stets freundlich und haben immer wieder geschaut, ob es uns gut geht und ob wir noch etwas benötigen. Auch Sonderwünsche, wie Dessertteller und Gabel für den mitgebrachten Kuchen, waren kein Problem.
Wir haben am Ende wirklich viel gezahlt. Etwa 35 Euro pro Person, wofür teilweise mehrere Personen gut essen gehen können. Dafür haben wir viel ausprobieren können, konnten jedoch nicht überzeugt werden. Am Lokal und den Mitarbeitern gibt es nicht viel auszusetzen, aber es ist definitiv noch Luft nach oben. Die guten Bewertungen kann ich in der Höhe nicht...
