    This is a great place to go for a break from German food. The Argentinians are well-known for some…read morereally good steaks. 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.

    A customer of mine took me here for dinner and it was ok. Modeled after an Argentinian Steak House…read morethis place has been operating in Köln for a long time. 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.

    Cute pub right by the river. Yes, it's in the middle of the tourist trail through Old Town, but…read moresomehow the food and service made it seem a world away. I had the herring sample plate, don't remember the exact name, but it was something like Köln Sushi. In any case, it was herring served in a bout 6 different ways and I loved every one of them. This dish is for true lovers of those delightful little fish. They were smoked, marinated, raw, with beets in a salad, grilled, and so on. Everything was so fresh and tasty. I finished it all, something I seldom do. This was the best meal I had in Cologne, and I'd go back for more. That's saying a lot too, as I almost always prefer trying somewhere new. The riverside setting is great for people watching, and for us it was a great place to duck out of the rain for a Kölsch before we decided to stay and dine.

    A rude person seriously ruins your day. Before my dinner here I enjoyed my exploration and loved…read morethe city vibe. The service was good, the waitress and an owner-looking guy were both responsive and polite. However after I paid my bill, an older owner-looking guy stopped me from heading out and asked me to take my bottle with me. I bought a bottle of still water earlier, and finished it during dinner so I left the empty bottlethere. I was embarrassed at first thinking I had to take care of the plates and trash, until the old guy speaking to me with a condescending tone: German people come to a restaurant, order food and drink, they don't drink from their own. You take it with you unless it isn't yours. I simply don't understand the logic that if I have my water already, why do I have to order the unnecessaries from you? Plus, if you can't handle the culture diversity probably you shouldn't do catering on the most international corner in Köln. I welcome any German friend to enlighten me on this. Food wise it was average, I ordered tapas which had no seafood, so probably that was not their specialty.
