The cafe has a lovely patio area full of wooden tables and shade umbrellas, and staff will bring your orders to you there. The menu offers a variety of paninis, coffee drinks, and wine. I opted for a housemade lemonade, which came in a big wine glass and made me feel very cosmopolitan as I sipped on a sunny day. We wanted to order the caprese panini, as this is my companion's favorite, but it was sold out-- which goes to show how popular and delicious an item it is. We opted for a pepper and cheese focaccia, which was a great substitute. The service was good and the ambiance of outside was very nice. There's a neat wine shop attached, and we stopped in another day to pick up a couple of bottles as well.

The food is good but the waiters are incompetent, ignorant, absent and disrespectful. After…read morespilling a liter of ewe's milk over a costumer, the waiter did nothing but clean the chair. The costumers' clothes were completely soaked in milk forcing him to leave the restaurant and come back an hour later. In the meantime the waiters just served the food, which was of course cold when the costumer came back. Again no comment, no apologies, and the costumer had to insist for the food to be warmed up at least. Everything was put on the bill as if nothing had happened. I definitely won't go there again. It is not worth the food, there are other good Persian places.

I found this place as I was searching for a place to have dinner and, was very keen to try it, as…read morethey served Persian cuisine. I have had a lot of Persian cuisine in the past and really enjoyed it, so I was keen to try this place out. If you did not know this place, you are not likely to find it. It's located in a quite residential street and there is nothing but apartments around here. It's away from the city centre and obviously popular with people in the area. The name Djadoo in Hindi means "magic" and I suspect the same in Persian, as they have their napkins with Alladins Magic Lamp under the logo ;-)) The place is reasonably big, yet cosy. The place was packed but they were kind enough to get us a table. Our waitress was really sweet and very friendly and was quite happy to make recommendations for us. The menu here is huge and has many classical Persian dishes and many North African dishes from Morocco and Tunisia with a bit of turkey thrown in. They have a varied wine list from Lebanese, Turkish, Moroccon, Tunisian, French and Israeli wine. They also have some classic Persian drinks like pomegranate juice and so on. We decided to have a mixed starter and some tagine for main. The food here is excellent and full of flavour. The lamb was simply amazing and it just fell of the bone and no knife was needed for it :-)) It is relatively mild and has lots of piquante, fruity, saffrony and other sweet spice flavours. Persian food is slightly more greasy and creamy, but tastes heavenly. The saffron rice pudding with the pomegranate sorbet for dessert was a hit and once again a recommendation from the waitress. I usually do this in a new place, ask the staff for recommendations and try a few things. Service was super good and despite it being full it was quick and friendly. I found out during my conversation with the waitress that the restaurant has been open for 3 years. I would come back here in a heartbeat. This is excellent Persian / Oriental / North African cuisine with beautiful flavours, good service and not too expensive. It's certainly not a cheap place to eat but the quality is excellent. If you want to try something out of the usual this is really a great place to try. Ask for some recommendation and enjoy your meal. I could not fault our experience here tonight.

Upon receiving our mains, we told the waiter that our brown pasta was way undercooked and another pasta was not very flavorful. Instead of the waiter accommodating and welcoming our comments, he broke into a tantrum and a fit about how we should not come back here if we don't like the food and that this is how they make the food and he will not change the way they cook for us. He started yelling about the truffles and that he is italian and knows how it should be. To be honest their home made spaghetti was closer to udon noodles, and their pesto sauce was not a pesto rather an infused oil. We paid our bill and left, and will surely never return there - not because of our bad experience with the food, but because of the very angry and aggressive attitude and energy. People can have bad cook days, but an aggressive attitude is not acceptable.

Hands down the best paella in whole Darmstadt. Been going there since my childhood and it never…read moredisappoint! The paella is gigantic so order one for two if your are 4. It will still be plenty! The flavor is exactly what you get in Spain. The seafood is fresh and so are the peas. The rice is al dente and overall the texture is just plain amazing! The waitress was a little slow and didn't understand our drink order (we are Germans and talked German so no language barrier) still we had a great time. They also have a "biergarten" so you can sit outside in summer. Only really bad thing is that there's no parking and it's very difficult to find a spot.

La Bodega is a small Spanish restaurant in Darmstadt. It specialises in Paella, and I have to say,…read moreit was pretty good paella. I had the chicken, but they also do rabbit, seafood and a mixed one (which hubby had). There is a limited tapas menu, but the bread and garlic mayonnaise was nice and the prawns in garlic were delicious (we like garlic). The waitress was very friendly, and the portions generous. A nice wine list too, I had a lovely glass of Rioja. it's a bit off-putting when you walk in, as you are faced with a bar, with local customers sitting and chatting, and you feel a bit - blocked. Just push your way through and grab a seat - it is small, so you might want to book. The prices are very reasonable, and I enjoyed my evening.

Bembelsche, it was at walking distance from my Airbnb and i ate here 3 nights. Being an authentic German restaurant. It offers actual traditional german dishes. Obviously, Schnitzels are on the menu. My first try was the Frankfurter Schnitzel. It was good. This restaurant doesn't do small portion. For all the 3 night, i either have to take the dish home or walk away in a full belly. Now the waiting staffs, only the waiter speak limited English but they are all very friendly and ready to serve. I left my Schaufelchen half finished. The waitress checked on me looking concerned. I just told her that it was too much. Seriously, i never had a restaurant serving me a WHOLE PORK SHOULDER. Lastly, the restaurant has a great beverage menu. They are German. It is Bier and they are all great!
