Lodge - Kronberg

We spend the days with our little one @ the Opel zoo and afterwards with some friends for dinner @ the LOGE – In fact: I was surprised about the service, the quality of the food and the service. All steaks (I had 500gr steak and the cream potato) and burger are excellent, the other side and dishes (my wife had something called salad) – really good, even the service was as good as you can expect. Next time I hope to get a table near to the fence, so you can see the animals even better. Thanks to the Lodge team for a nice evening, we will come back soon again

Located next to Opel Zoo we decided to dine in The Lodge after our zoo-trip and we liked it a lot. We had the filet steaks with quite a few side dishes and it all was delicious! The service was nice and forthcoming and we felt very comfortable. Only downside were the restrooms: overflowing towel-bins, dirty floor, basins and stalls. Not cool! :-(

...having lunch in the sun while watching the giraffes and other beautiful animals walking around in front of you is an experience of its own...the food was ok, portions big (a lot of chicken on that Caesar's salad), taste good but not extraordinary with the exception of the Cremer brûlée as dessert. Will definitely be back to enjoy the views in the afternoon while enjoying a nice drink...

I should say that I have no problem at all paying silly prices for good food or a good evening. Unfortunately, the quality of the food does not justify the high prices charged at the restaurant. Given it is a steak restaurant one would expect that the steak is prepared to a high standard. All I can say that I have had much better steaks at Block House for a fraction of the price. Our steaks were extremely bland and overcooked. I didn't finish mine and I still feel slightly nauseous today. Also, the restaurant is always uncomfortably warm.

If you are a big steak fan then here you will not be disappointed. Their meat is really good and the side dishes too. Don't miss their homemade lemon sorbet / colonel. Probably wise to book in advance. Grab the first empty parking space otherwise you may end up having to make a large detour to get back to the entrance again. A location for that special occasion but priced accordingly. Service is good but they have to keep a lot of tables happy, so grab your chance and be ready to use it !
