Lodge - Reservar uma mesa

The "Lodge" in Kronberg is indeed a good restaurant, no question. It does not live up to the expectations though created by all the great reviews available.The quality of food is good, but I had better steaks. The service is good as well, but on the other hand I experienced more attentive staff. And since this is supposed to be one of the best Steak Restaurants in this area, I have to compare to other, similar locations.And based on that, even though everything is "good", the overall experience was just average. The value you get for your money is poor, which reduces the overall rating. While I would be willing to accept prices for the (quality of) meat served, sides to your main course are overpriced and simple additions are charged disproportionate amounts of money. The sauce included with every steak is basically ketchup with odd seasoning (it tastes a bit like "Christmas ketchup") and will most likely spoil the good taste of your steak. The expensive side salad is very basic, at least the dressing is tasty.The location itself is neatly arranged, you might want to go for a window table giving you a nice look over the nearby Zoo. However, you will be seated on "safari chairs" which are way to uncomfortable for a nice and relaxed dinner. In addition, they are too tall - short people will have to actually climb up these chairs to sit down. Once achieved, you're always too far away from the table but unable to get your chair closer. While these chairs are somewhat OK for sitting and talking, they are rather impractical once your food has been served. They also have "normal" chairs and tables, you might want to go for one of the round couch-like chair/table corners, they seem to be the most comfortable seats there.I liked the idea of presenting the bill in a little drawer containing some sweets which you are free to pick some from. Service was friendly.Overall, it's really good, but not outstanding.

We spend the days with our little one @ the Opel zoo and afterwards with some friends for dinner @ the LOGE – In fact: I was surprised about the service, the quality of the food and the service. All steaks (I had 500gr steak and the cream potato) and burger are excellent, the other side and dishes (my wife had something called salad) – really good, even the service was as good as you can expect. Next time I hope to get a table near to the fence, so you can see the animals even better. Thanks to the Lodge team for a nice evening, we will come back soon again

If you are a big steak fan then here you will not be disappointed. Their meat is really good and the side dishes too. Don't miss their homemade lemon sorbet / colonel. Probably wise to book in advance. Grab the first empty parking space otherwise you may end up having to make a large detour to get back to the entrance again. A location for that special occasion but priced accordingly. Service is good but they have to keep a lot of tables happy, so grab your chance and be ready to use it !

...having lunch in the sun while watching the giraffes and other beautiful animals walking around in front of you is an experience of its own...the food was ok, portions big (a lot of chicken on that Caesar's salad), taste good but not extraordinary with the exception of the Cremer brûlée as dessert. Will definitely be back to enjoy the views in the afternoon while enjoying a nice drink...

Located next to Opel Zoo we decided to dine in The Lodge after our zoo-trip and we liked it a lot. We had the filet steaks with quite a few side dishes and it all was delicious! The service was nice and forthcoming and we felt very comfortable. Only downside were the restrooms: overflowing towel-bins, dirty floor, basins and stalls. Not cool! :-(
