Alter Godekin - Dortmund

Today no high kitchen and no trendy Burgerladen! An invitation to the 70th birthday led us to the “Alter Godekin” restaurant in DO-Wellinghofen. We were never here! My internet search was unsuccessful. no website, no Facebook, hardly reviews on gastronomy portals. from outside it seemed like a bourgeois pub. Sole eggs, cold hairstyles and mett rolls? to the left of me the expected long wooden steps and to the right – I looked at half-rounds everywhere: as a passage, as wall coverings, as backrests of chairs and benches. All right, a Balkan restaurant. They used to say they go to the “Yugoslavs”. So there are still them! Advertising, what is that, and yet they have existed with us for generations. from grandfather to father, from father to son, almost like erbdynastien. the decoration and decoration snapshots come from the 80s. rustic plastered light walls. matching ceiling lights over the tables. some wall arches are mirrored inside and should inoculate the alley even more space, while I count about 80 places. is not so small, and in the cellar there were two cones and the wc. it took a great time until after eating curiously the menu had passed through. at pos. 204 “Zagreb cell” I stopped counting. The contents of the card are loaded with meat. In addition to an offer of so-called “international” foods, there are also several Balkan dishes such as Satarasch 13 € and cevapcici 11 € with many comfort products on the supplements. fresh is only the salad buffet. They told me that the steaks were very good there. prices are moderate. e.g. BBQ plate with pads 13 €, Rumpsteak with pads from 18,50 €. Our anniversary had ordered a buffet for its 30 guests with cold and warm meals. it consisted essentially of good-bourgeois German or German. the necessary was really good. Tomatoes with mozzarella and basil, cheese, smoked ham, vegetable antipasti, small grilled chicken lobes, fresh small rolls, salad buffet, delicate bark with a dark roast sauce, delicate pork whip in creamy sauce without fat white asparagus had something else. three varieties dessert and two cakes rounded off the abundant food. I drank a dry white wine 0.2 l to 4 €, which was properly cooled at 10 degrees. it was a simple open weeping, nothing special but good drinking. the male service in black trousers and white shirts seemed inconspicuous, but attentive and friendly. the services were limited to drinks and the buffet was built. the restaurant made a neat and clean impression. Conclusion: a very clean load without heights and depths. suitable for family celebrations. Who lives nearby is tired here. I don't think – unless I try satarasch as before – but without cooked egg!

Service Inconvenient drinks you had to get yourself food ordered wrong food served Then came the statement when I reordered it may take then not recommend boss unfriendly

Canteens, dirty tablecloth, cellar wants to have enriched dishes, does not put the plate itself, but gives it to the guest, carelessly dressed food, is not worth the money, everything only rides, there is nothing cooked.

Delicious food, very friendly staff. In this restaurant I have eaten for 2-3 months almost every day. The place is almost always full, mostly the same people come. No restaurant, but a very nice and cozy place to eat.

We like to go to Old Godekin's athmosphere is casual and cozy. The service friendly and there is a good selection of dishes
