Unperfecthouse is one of the coolest places I have visited anywhere in the world. It is part bar,…read morepart hang out, part art gallery, part bar, and all you can eat buffet serving everything from traditional German food, to Latin food, and Vegan/Vegetarian offerings. I was with a large group from the Uni-Essen and we had the party room on the second floor. The other plus was that the "all you can eat" came with all the beer you can drink as well. This was a cool place to have a party for sure. Now it was mainly university folks but young kids came in and ate, drank beer, surfed the Internet, played music and there are many rooms in this sprawling place to eat, mingle, and basically hang out. The Men's bathroom is famous for its scrolling films on the walls. The website lists all sorts of other things going on in this mixed-use-space, but after hanging out here, drinking a few good beers, and eating all sorts of amazing cheap food, I have to say I was happy our hosts brought us here. All I can say is wow. Now, I have no idea what it is like if you are a solo traveler who happens to be in Essen, but I think it would still be a great bet for a place to eat (take your time) have a few beers, check the email with the free wi-fi, and take advantage of this unique space. If I had the money I would open a place like this in the USA. Think Warhol's Factory without all the creepy people and with good food.

We came with a group of friends and it was fine and cheap. For a buffet place it was huge and…read morepretty clean. However the selection of fried food was up the charts vs. other food to eat. They did have an option to cook chow mein noodle dishes on top of the other foods available, but that's it-- and their dessert selection was fruit that's been laying out for a few hrs, and maybe some ice cream tubs that people have dipped into with multiple flavors so it's a bit messy. I'd say this is the place to be if you love fried foods, but for me the food was really oily and not so many choices of non fried foods at a buffet.

Very good range of foods for decent price. Nice interior and good service. I will definitely come…read moreback when I have a chance.

This place is good for fresh seafood. The choices are not what you would expect at a Buffet in the…read moreUS. However, they do have good selection for sushi and fresh oysters. The desserts are worth saving room for, because there's quite the variety and lotta good ones to choose from. Would recommend to try it out for a special occasion, service is great, however the prices are somewhat on the higher side. Must try for oyster lovers.

Excellent buffet. We happened to stumble upon this restaurant while driving around trying to find a…read moreplace to eat open late enough on a Sunday. Many good restaurants in Eindhoven require reservations over the weekend in order to dine in. After being rejected prior at other restaurants due to a lack of reservations, we were pleasantly surprised and happy to know there were many seats available at this restaurant. We were also pleasantly surprised when the host told us about their gourmet buffet. The upstairs is an ala cart Japanese restaurant while the downstairs area is devoted to their buffet. The buffet offerings included everything from raw oysters, sushi and sashimi, to delicious warm entrées like mushrooms and garlic and sautéed bok choy along with fried rice and fried noodles. The salad offerings were fresh and absolutely delicious. They have cold plates for the cold food options and heated plates for the hot food entrées. The service staff was amazingly kind and helpful. All reasons we would definitely come back to this establishment.
