Steak cooked on a hot stone [Stuttgart, Germany]…read more Took the train to Stuttgart City Center. The restaurant is located in the central district near the commercial and cultural core of the city. It was busy with many diners opting dining in the huge outdoor patio shaded by huge umbrellas. We chose to dine indoors which was nice because of the openness of the patio and indoor dining. We were handed the lunch menu and were only available in German. I must say the prices even in Euro was, dare I say... pleasantly reasonable! We each ordered an Argentinisches Huftsteak (Google Translation: Argentinian hoof steak). My 200 grams (roughly 7.05-oz) steak was 16.90 € ($19.28). The experience was the best. I've never had to cook steak over a hot stone before. When the hot stone was getting cool before consuming all meat you can request for a replacement. Customer service was great especially when we were one of the few who chose to dine indoors. We weren't forgotten. The steak was served with House Fries and came with 3 dips: Barbecue, Meerrettich (Horseradish), and Chimichurri. No soda refills. The bar at the entrance, which is over seven meters long (that's at least 23-ft), was an impressive eye-catcher. 5-Star experience at Abacco's Steakhouse! Review #4061

My first visit to a German steak house. This review is written from an American perspective…read more The steak was cooked properly; medium rare; but was not seasoned. Normally when going to a steak house the meat is prepare so one doesn't require steak sauce or some other condiment. Not here the meat was flavorless. Big disappointment. The other thing was the meal was several without a side of veggies. Again, not sure is that is a local thing, but I was surprised. The baked potato was well prepared with sour cream and butter. The service was nice. The food was brought out hot. This was a very average experience for me.

It was light, refreshing, and flavorful. Served with bread almost crustini-like which was a nice touch. Main course was a ribeye with a baked potato and bread side. The ribeye was cooked medium rare as requested. But not with the proper technique. It was cooked on too low of a heat not allowing any sort of crust to form on the outside. Seasoning was mediocre. The baked potato was smothered in a delicious sour cream dressing. The bread was buttered and slightly seasoned which was delightful. For dessert was the lava cake with a scoop of ice cream. The lava cake was delectable. The ice cream was nothing to write home about but complimented the cake well. The downside was the berry purée that came with the dish. It was as if they poured an entire bowl of the purée onto the plate. It completely overwhelmed the dessert with sourness and tartness. I had to dodge it as best as I could. Overall was satisfied and would be interested in coming back to see if things would improved.

Best Gin and Steak Place in Stuttgart! No Kidding!…read more Wow, where do I begin? Ampulle is an amazing place! It was originally an apotheker (pharmacy) long ago. I remember it from years back when it was a high end Schwaben restaurant. Now it is THE dry gin and steak place in Stuttgart. Over 200 gins, and nearly 30 tonics, an incredible food menu and dry aged steaks. Also possibly the best ceaser salad I have ever had... The incredible food and drink are complimented by an absolutely wonderful staff to serve you and make for an enjoyable experience. The staff, Dennis, Marius, Marcel, Mahte, Alina, Chiara, all make coming to Ampulle not only a special event, but make it feel like home. If you love Gin then there is NO other place in Stuttgart with the selection of gins this place has to offer. If you love steak, you will be extremely impressed by the quality of the beef, and the skill of the wonderful chefs who cook it for you. A very nice Biergarten awaits you outside for the fine Stuttgart evenings. A great location in the best part of town, Stuttgart West. I have been coming here a couple time a week for the last two years and this place is one of the many reasons that Stuttgart is such a great town. So... What are you waiting for?! Get your Gin and Steak on!!! Yeee Haaa!

We decided to look at the bottom of the menu and treat ourselves with a pricy (25 euros) mixed platter of 'Schwaebisch' delicacies (apparently prepared at the Staeffele restaurant next door) served on a huge, well-stuffed plate. The overall impression is that it is authentic and well prepared. Mjummy maultaschen! We also loved the side-dishes of sauerkraut and lentils which go great with the bacon. However, good but not the best seasoned meat we had. The quality/price ratio was in this case unfavorable, but the massive quantity, side-dishes and sweet waitress & waiter make this a solid 4 stars, with a narrow escape to 5.

We were seated promptly and it did not seem too busy at all at lunch. The setting is a little bit dim and the dining room is fairly sized as it's located inside a hotel. The concept here is quite interesting in that the steak is just seared on the outside and they bring you hot plates so that you can keep the meat yourself however you like. I did have to get a couple hot plates for the full meal. I ordered the US ribeye 250g which was a good amount of meat and got the fries that are unlimited and also added a salad to get some fiber. I enjoyed that the meal also comes with BBQ sauce, horseradish sauce, as well as chimichurri. Definitely a nice place to get a steak.

I ordered the Carpaccio and the meat was cut way to thick and served on a pizza type bread. When I order carpaccio the past meat has been paper thin and this dish should be very light. My husband ordered the skirt steak and it was not good either. The truffle mac and cheese I inhaled because I was super hungry and the grilled cauliflower and broccoli was delish.
