Date of visit: 9/6/2024…read more Not sure what to eat for our last meal in Frankfurt. We were pretty much done with German food so we went with Italian instead. Our first choice was located outside of Frankfurt, leaving only Quattro on the table. Our orders: - scallops with truffle: scallops were perfectly prepared and I thought the truffle shavings were pretty generous. The sauce however, was WAY TOO SALTY! Like...reallyyyy...you don't taste your cooking before serving it to paid customers? - Spaghetti Quattro with scampi, mussels, clams and baby calamari in white wine butter sauce: pasta was al dente. it was delicious with plenty of shell fish, BUT again, it was on the salty side. If the amount of salt could be toned down a bit, this would be a winning dish! - Spaghetti ala vongole: almost the same with the spaghetti Quattro above but with only clams. Sauce was not as salty which is awesome! - Lemon sorbet: served partially melted already. I hate melted ice cream and sorbet! BUT it was surprisingly good! I would never voluntarily order a lemon sorbet but we were not in the mood for a tiramisu or a soufflé that night. It was light & refreshing & exactly how we wanted to close our meal. House bread was served cold and hard. I hate cold hard bread. I had to ask them to warm it up. They did. On a side note: when we came, indoor dining area was empty. The waiter asked us to sit at the full patio without letting us know it's a smoking dining area. It was not fun being a second hand smoker for the next 90 minutes, so unless you are ok with cigarette smokes and/or a smoker yourself, do your lungs a favor a get indoor seats instead!

A waitress from the other side of the restaurant noticed and immediately came over and fixed it. I ordered the gnocchi, it is not your traditional potato style. I asked the manager and he gave me a whole lesson on the different regions and styles of gnocchi. The food was absolutely incredible, everytime I tried to put the fork down I kept going back for one more bite. When I sat down they provided tapas which was my favorite part of dinning in Italy, makes you feel like family.

We were definitely not looking for Italian food in the heart of Germany, but we're extremely happy…read morewe found this place. And it has all of the romance you expect from fine Italian dining, and the food truly is phenomenally good. My wife got a large serving of salmon, with some very nicely prepared potatoes. But, we both loved the sirloin that I had, with mushrooms and potatoes and zucchini. The steak was buttery soft and packed with flavor, and the mushrooms made every bite that much more savory. The salmon was very good, served in a tomato sauce, but it paled in comparison to the steak. The only gripe was that we asked for the salad before the meal, and instead we got it with the meal. It was a very good salad, but it would have been better before the meal. The atmosphere certainly deserves mention, since it was the ideal romantic location for any couple.

After exploring the city to the fullest, we were looking for a spot to grab a drink. I had done a…read morelittle research on the most reviewed bars in town (with good ratings) and Eschenheimer Turm Cafe was one of the ones that I jotted down. It was also close to where we were so we walked over for happy hour. Ambiance (3.5/5): This bar and restaurant is known for it's tower. From doing a little research, I found that there's limited seating in the tower. Unfortunately, this wasn't a possibility when we were there, so we sat out on their spacious patio. A bit of a bummer, but we made the most of it. The weather was nice so the patio wasn't a bad consolation prize. Al fresco dining is the way to go in Europe. Service (3/5): Pretty much your standard European service. Not terribly attentive, not terribly efficient, but it does the job. You'll have to track down your waiter here and there, but that's pretty much the standard in Germany and Europe as a whole. Food (N/A): We only stopped by for drinks so I can't comment on the food. Drinks (3/5): They have a pretty extensive cocktail list, and it was happy hour, so we were able to get a good deal on their adult beverages. The cocktails are pretty much standard cocktails, not a lot on the inventive side of things. I'm talking things like margaritas, mojitos, Hugos, etc. Eschenheimer Turn Cafe made for a nice break during a day of exploring. It just would have been fun to sit in the tower as it's their most distinctive feature.

What a delightful experience!…read more I was a little surprised when we got here to find out that we wouldn't be dining inside the tower, which was what I had previously expected, but we had a great time nonetheless! You can make a reservation ahead of time online, but we found it didn't do anything special for us as we were told to just pick anywhere to sit and eat as it wasn't very crowded when we arrived. There is SOME indoor dining, but sitting outside is much more pleasant, especially in the summer. They have VEGAN SCHNITZEL on the menu, which was very exciting for me as I am of German heritage but am now vegetarian, so I haven't eaten schnitzel since I stopped eating meat. It was delicious and very satisfying! Also, you CAN go up in the tower. The restrooms are actually up at the top of the tower, which I found very interesting as I wouldn't think it would be ideal to install plumbing at the top of a 15th castle tower. Be sure to go check it out, even if you don't have to pee! Tip: if you order extra sauce, they will charge you for it. We were unaware of this as extra sauce is usually at no charge where we're from (the U.S.), so this is a warning to any Americans who plan to come here.

We had a reservation cancelled at a different restaurant so I made a last-minute choice to give this place a try. The reviews were decent, it's Italian, it was close. The service was great. I have no complaints there. The atmosphere is nice too. But everyone at our table (party of 6) was disappointed in their meal. My colleague ordered a salad as a starter. It was so huge and full of random stuff, we all ended up sharing it. A couple of us ordered a shrimp starter and it was bland and flavorless. My main was octopus, which was well-cooked, but the plating was horrendous and looked like a child splashed lumps of random sauces all over the place. The potatoes that came with it were mushy and bland. A couple other guests had the ravioli and reported that it was not al dente - it was HARD. Chewy and hard. That just ain't right. We won't be coming back. Luckily Frankfurt has a load of amazing Italian options as alternatives.

Well - this place is clearly family run, and GOOD GOD is this food fantastic! DO NOT HESITATE! We were thankful that the staff understood English, but they also speak German and Italian, which was really wild to hear while you're away. They have a pretty extensive menu, so I went with my eyes instead of what my stomach could actually handle, and opted for the whole experience - wine, appetizer, and the main course. To start, we each got some lovely white wine and got two heavy pastas that were from creamy, rich heaven. I got the tortellini stuffed with meat in a lovely light cream sauce with ham while hubby got gnocchi with four cheese alfredo sauce. Mine was BELLA and my hubby's was nothing to stick your nose up to. They were homemade; they were FRESH; and they were meant to be eaten slowly. Admire that fork full of delicious pasta and cry inside quietly; this is some of the BEST pasta I've ever had outside of the USA. We even went back the following night and opted for some personal pizza and I got the seafood pasta. I had originally ordered the seafood risotto, but the waiter actually came from the kitchen and said that the risotto was not good enough to serve and would make my dish into a pasta dish. That was completely nice to even tell me that, and to make something even better than I expected! The pictures speak for themselves; this place is a GEM!
