It was an honor to dine at Germany's first Iberian Steakhouse and to try my first authentic Iberian…read moresteak. We were at Royal Iberico for a Yelp Elite event and were greeted by a well-decorated, chic atmosphere and our warm and friendly restaurant hosts. The restaurant is small but intimate and cozy. On to the food- we started with a delicious and smooth Cava Apertif which was refreshing and tasty, and an olive bread with a garlic dip. The appetizer was a beautifully presented zucchini hors d'oeuvre, and we also enjoyed a charcuterie platter with Serrano ham, cheese, and chorizo. The main course was the highlight of our evening- Iberian steak with potatoes and mixed vegetables. The steak was both crispy and tender, flavorful and delicious. It had a tad too much salt for my taste, but overall it was very good. In between courses, we enjoyed live violin and accordion music, which was a great surprise. They played dynamically and romantically and added to the charm of the evening. Five stars for a lovely dinner and evening.

This was the only place to ever go to if you wanted a really good steak…read more As an American after so many months and years here, you broke down and really wanted to get a good steak. This is where you had to go to get a decent stick in the cologne area. They know how to make steaks here, they're thick, fresh and juicy. I really know how to prepare the meat here, better than anywhere else. Every so often I would crave a steak after eating so much chicken and pork, prepared the German way. It's a little bit on the pricey side, but it's well worth it. If you're going to get any kind of steak in Germany, make sure it's at an Argentinian restaurant. Go to where you know they know properly prepare the meat and get the right cuts as well. A lot of German steak dishes, usually consist of behind her back side of the animal. Not always the best cut of the animal.

Moment of honesty, I think a lot of people come across this restaurant because they feel like…read moreeating steak and find that El Gaucho is fully reserved... and then with the help of the all steak gods, come across La Casona. This is how we were first introduced to La Casona a while back. We revisited on Saturday and were blown away. If you enjoy eating good food and can forget about counting calories for a night, then here's my bullet proof recommendation: Start out with the bread and the amazing garlic/Kräuter butter that will be offered to you. Take it easy on the bread, regardless of how delicious the butter is. You have to remain hungry. Order the Gamba's appetizer - it is served in hot delicious garlic oil in which you can dip your bread. But again, take it easy on the bread. Then, for your main course, order the lamb dish (see provided picture in the business overview). Oh yeaaaaah.....

Everyone of us of course had steaks, with some potatoes and a bit of vegetables. The red wine was flowing, some of the best Argentinian wine of course. The inside is reminiscent of an old-school steakhouse. It's dimly lit and lots of wood and dark furnishings. There's shelves and walls of bottles and more bottles. Besides a great company and the good food, there was also bands serenading us through our dinner. Can't beat the abundance of entertainment at every corner of this dining room. The place felt so alive and vibrant. This is touted as one of the best steak houses in Cologne. There's a lot more competition today, but this one is still running strong.

The menu has a number of starters, salads, steaks and desserts. You can order your different cuts of steak cooked in different ways and with pepper crust or a few other combinations. You can order sides and sauces as well. My steak was cooked ok and lacked flavour for what was supposed to be a piquante :-) Portion was fairly big and normally I would have no problem with it but, the lack of flavour put me off it. All in all an ok place for meal. I am sure there are better places in town for a good steak.

All the servers were taking care of me and there was no confusion from server to server. They all communicated on my needs, what I ordered, and what I was looking to do. Everyone spoke English and there was no problems with communicating. It was pretty quiet. It was a Wednesday night and I walked right in. No reservation was needed but I wouldn't count on that.

I was able to pay with cash - although they do not accept it. Just have more than one payment method on you, so you don't run into problems.
