Let me start by saying that maybe we got it all wrong - our expectations vs. what Tischlerei staff thought we wanted and that's where it all went wrong. Nevertheless, it was awful. As a group of 15 colleagues we booked a six course degustation...menu marked as 'let us surprise you' - boy were we surprised. Maybe other companies spend their business dinners discussing charts and projections but we just wanted a nice dinner which won't last 3.5 freaking hours.
Let's get into detail - the dinner was supposed to start at 7pm, some of us didn't get drinks until 7.30. Note the service was very slow the entire evening which made things even more frustrating. First appetizer came in around 8pm, next one 8.40 every other meal went out slower than the previous one. I'm not a frequent 6-course dinner goer but I don't suppose you need 40minutes between appetizers or soup and main course, that's plain wrong. We finished our meals some time after 10pm and left as fast as we could because everyone was half asleep. After we waited 20 minutes for the bill of course. The entire evening was a horrible drag. Let me say that the place was full with one more group of 8+ people. Definitely no apology to me because that's not supposed to be a problem in a fancy restaurant where you spend ~80EUR p.p.
I wish I could say that everything was saved by the delicious meals we were presented. Unfortunately I can't. Everything we got was mediocre to average, from appetizers to soup, even dessert was nothing you would tell your kids about. The only thing that realy stood out was veil medallions with silky rice - those were absolutely delicious.
Please note that I'm not writing this just on my behalf but on behalf of roughly 15 people that felt the same.
tl;dr: Super slow service, below average meals, wannabe fine dining but can't deliver, not super expensive but definitely not cheap (~1200EUR / 15 ppl) - wouldn't come back.More
