Terribly unfriendly staff. Overall very bad attitude. Stand-offish when I asked questions, like…read morewhen the cloakroom would open or if there was any food available at the venue. I got yelled at for wanting to walk into the completely empty men's toilet after a long concert - there was a row of 50+ people in the women's. I don't understand what the big deal was. Everything was very unclear. I had VIP tickets to a concert at E-Werk which offered me some extra privileges, but while standing in line I found out (from other people queueing with me) that we had to get wristbands from a member of the staff, but this person was nowhere to be found. I did eventually find them, but I lost my place in the queue and had to start from the back. When we got inside we got some t-shirts that came with the VIP package, but later I heard from other fans that they didn't even get the merchandise that they paid for because the people handing the shirts out were nowhere to be found. I will never visit this place again, and I hope the employees of E-Werk will learn how to treat their guests with some respect. If people that visit your venue need to pay € 3,90 for a glass of coke, I think they at least deserve to receive some warmth and courtesy of the personnel. The overall unfriendliness left a very bad taste in my mouth to what was otherwise a lovely evening and I'm pretty bummed about that.

I like this place. Loud, noisy, good drinks. Really good White Russian too…read more Missing one star because getting a drink can take AGES. Despite there being lots of staff. They can't always seem to handle big crowds and tend to purposefully ignore people when the going gets tough. Other than that, not bad.

Oh, Maya. Why must you be so smoky inside? Haven't your owners realized that smoking is best done…read moreto raw meat, not to the lungs of its patrons? *sigh* The 'Mexican' food at Maya is the best in Bonn, outside of my kitchen. But I cook Tex-Mex, so maybe that doesn't count... but I digress. I must admit that I've only eaten at Maya once, due to the aforementioned smokiness. I just have a serious problem with not being able to taste my food for the smell of smoke in the air. All things considered, the meal I had at Maya was one of the better ones I've had in the area. After a starter of the typical Poco Loco-variety tortilla chips and questionably "homemade" dips, I had the Palenque enchiladas with ground beef, avocado, and salsa. The plate came with a side of rice, beans and a small salad. The ground beef had pleasant, although not spicy, flavors, and the avocado was more guacamole than avocado strips, which is what I expected from the description. The rice and beans were only slightly seasoned, but were an acceptable complement to the main part of the dish. Bear in mind that my idea of good Mexican involves a generous portion of chiles (preferably poblanos, jalapenos and/or chipotles) and cumin, so I was a bit underwhelmed by my meal at Maya. However, if the smoke and lingering stale smokiness would go away, I would definitely be back to try more of the menu.
