Loved it

I enjoyed the evening a lot. I had eight courses and I couldn’t even say which one my favorite was because they were all very good. The staff was very friendly and attentive. When I am in Frankfurt next time, I will definitely come back.

Major letdown in every aspect

Practically every course was either way too salty (sometimes unbearably so), or just really bland. The wait between each course was insufferable: after 1 hour we had only gotten to the first one, and the total experience lasted no less than 3h30 (all of that on a rather uncomfortable chair). For the final course we were asked if we wanted to have a little break before it (lol) or if we wanted to have it "straight away", which we obviously opted for. It took 30 minutes to arrive.

The staff kept making mistakes, such as opening the wrong bottle of wine, randomly switching to German, or just being rude/passive-aggressive. And they never even apologized for anything 😭

Compared to other vegan fine dining experiences with a similar price range (e.g. Gauthier Soho in London), this was a major letdown: the food, the environment, the attention, the professionalism and the overall quality definitely did not live up to our expectations and were not worth the price (~100€/person).

I will say though the desserts were quite nice (violet ice cream, lemon cheesecake).

Beeindruckendes Menü

Das Menü hat uns beeindruckt. Alle Bestandteile werden im Restaurant zubereitet mit teils hoch aufwändigen Techniken. Besonders zugesagt hat uns zum Beispiel der Chili-Schnee und die gefilterte klare Tomatensuppe!

Pros: Service, Atmosphäre, Lecker

Richtig gutes Essen

Mega Restaurant, super freundliche Bedienung und überragende Weinauswahl! Wir hatten das 10-Gänge-Menü und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Vor allem der Cheesecake als Dessert war ein Traum. Nicht ganz günstig, aber das Geld auf jeden Fall wert. Ich komme gerne wieder 😊

Leckeres Essen in angenehmer Atmosphäre

Ein schöner Ort für eine entspannte Mahlzeit. Besonders die Tomatensuppe als Vorspeise und das Joghurt-Dessert mit Mandarinen waren ein Genuss! Die freundliche Atmosphäre macht den Besuch noch angenehmer. Die Grüne Sauce war in Ordnung, aber kein Highlight. Trotzdem eine klare Empfehlung – wir kommen gerne wieder!

Pros: Leckeres Essen, freundliche Atmosphäre, tolle Nachspeise

Cons: Die Grüne Sauce

Perfect restaurant for special evenings

Came here with my colleagues, we booked the menu with 10 courses. The staff was lovely and did explain everything. The food is extraordinary and tasty. What I also appreciated was the big selection of interesting non-alcoholic drinks. Of course the price is higher, but you pay for a truly exceptional experience with very, very tasty vegan food.

perfect brunch for 19€

the brunch is everything you’re asking for. they have the best pastries: croissants, franzbrötchen and even lye croissants (laugenecken), which i never had in vegan before. drinks as water, juices, tea and coffee are included. you pay extra for espresso based drinks.

Good but not Great

Very nice atmosphere, service started off fantastic when restaurant was empty, but dropped off considerably once it got busy (on a Wednesday night it was packed). Vegetable forward food, but for our tastes, a bit pricey for the actual food. We tried the Bao buns (my favorite), oyster mushroom tacos wirh kimchi, and artichoke with tomatoes. Tapas style allows tasting of multiple dishes. Servers describe each dish which is a nice touch, just that everything we had would not seek out again (at the prices charged). Each table has a flask of vodka that is free to drink.

Pros: Ambiance, Entree descriptions

Cons: Uneven service, Food good but not great (expensive), Limited beer options

Fine dining for reasonable pricing

If you want to experience fine dining but don’t want to spend a total fortune this is the place. It’s all very chic, the staff really knows it all about the menu. The food is simply amazing you can try so many different things, since they have a tapas kinda menu. One of the best vegan experiences I’ve ever had.

Top Empfehlung

Wir hatten das 10er Menu und die allermeisten Gänge waren eine Offenbarung! Sehr kreative Küche mit saisonalen Produkten und wechselnder Karte. Das Personal ist extrem freundlich und wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt.
Ein Kleinst-Kritikpunkt ist, dass es sehr lange dauert, für das Menu muss man schon mal 4 Stunden einplanen. Wir waren darauf nicht eingestellt, wenn man es vorher weiß ist es ja auch kein Problem.

Pros: Freundlichkeit, Ambiente, Geschmack

Cons: Dauert sehr lange

Very creative fine dining

I'll start with the good: the courses were full of fresh ingredients that balanced each other well. All of the combinations were so creative and flavorful! This was my first time doing fine dining, and I was expecting the portions to be so small but for a ten course meal, they were surprisingly big and very filling! Some highlights for me were the whipped herb-y butter (so rich and creamy), the ramen bowls, the dumplings with some kind of gingery paste filling, and the chai foam with little cakes as one of the desserts. A really nice culinary experience overall.
The downside was that the pacing of courses was off. I had read reviews (and the waiter also mentioned) that they are quick to replace courses when you finish. But we found it to be the opposite, we waited for long periods of time in-between courses and were quite tired by the end and honestly just wanted to leave while we still had a few courses left (our entire meal took 3.5 hours). It seems like this may be because we chose the 7:30 seating. There were people who came at 8 or 8:30 who caught up to us in courses by the end. Perhaps if we had come earlier or later, we wouldn't have spent so much time there.

Pros: High quality food

Cons: Could be a very long meal

Fantastic!

Last week, my boyfriend invited me to dinner at Leuchtendroter. I'm vegan, he's not, but we both enjoyed it very much.
The good service deserves special praise.
We ate the take it all menu and were both full and happy afterwards.
We would love to come back.

Amazing vegan breakfast

TOP NOTCH VEGAN BREAKFAST/BRUNCH!!

This is so far my absolute favorite vegan place for breakfast! Why so? Let’s get started!

THE SERVICE:
deserves 5 from 5 stars! I was asked if I wanted the light or heavy breakfast, I decided to choose the heavy. I could not decide rather to start with the salty or sweet dishes first… so she recommended to surprise me with dishes one by one and if I liked it, I could just say so and order it again! PERFECT! Also! I never had to wait or ask for more food, it was noticed by the staff and I immediately received the next dish as I finished the last!
Although! I was recently told, it now serves an open buffet.


THE FOOD:
Literally everything… everything was fresh, tasty and beautifully presented! From the soup, to the fresh bread and pesto, all the way to the French toast and porridge; absolutely fantastic!

COSTS:
about 26€ per person for the full heavy breakfast offer. If you ask me, it was worth every single cent!

ENVIRONMENT/ATMOSPHERE:
As you will see through my pictures, the restaurant offered a spacious and clean view. Creative pictures and paintings as well as nice tables and decoration filled the room.
I do however recommend eating indoors! I saw how guests were annoyed outside with all the wasps that also wanted a taste of that delicious food. :)

All in all, I can say that this place flawlessly delivered at a high quality standard.

Must visit! #Veganuary

Pros: Amazing food, Nice service , Great atmosphere

A great fine dining experience that fell a little short in some areas

So many good things to say about our dinner here but some disappointments. We travel a lot and try to find these dining experiences at least once per trip. It's always a treat! We found the atmosphere to be great - very busy but not too loud. Service was extremely friendly and they did a great job translating complicated dishes to English. That said, some courses were brought out before the previous round had been finished and/or cleared which was a bit sloppy for this level of dining. The 10 course meal was good, the right amount of food, and well-balanced but some dishes seemed to be missing a sauce or lacking salt while others were excellent. Few dishes "wow'd" us though, which we were expecting. Overall it was a great experience but far from perfect. Cheers!

Guter Einstieg in die vegane Küche

Ordentlich Auswahl. Zum teilen kreative Umsetzung. Allerdings nicht mit wow Faktor. Möhren Hot Dog macht satt, ist jetzt aber nicht das „Erlebnis“. Highlight für uns war das Brot. Für den Einstieg ist das sicherlich auch für „Nicht-Veganer“ super.

Köstliche saisonale regionale Gerichte! Das Warten hat sich gelohnt. Der alkoholfreie Sekt war extrem gut. Mittags sollte es mehr Gerichte geben.

Outstanding in food, atmosphere and service

A fine dining experience that I’m very happy I could experience. I made a reservation and when I entered I was immediately by welcomed by very friendly staff. They explained the concept and the food 🍱 and gave very helpful tips finding the right drink.
I took the Riesling from Leuchtendroter which turned out to be a natural unfiltered wine 🍷 and they let me taste it beforehand to see if I like it. The food was incredible delicious, thoughtful and unusual and I could not think of what was better. The staff explained each course on ingredients or howbit was prepared.
If you come with 2 or more you can take the 10 course menu. I chose 3 courses and loved every bit of it. You get bottled water and I got a little free dessert 🍮 at the end.
The atmosphere is cozy and beautiful and the staff went out of their way to make sure everyone has a good time and knows what they’re doing and eating. The prices in fine dining are never cheap, but they were reasonable for the outstanding food and service you get.
There is outdoor seating and parking available.

Pros: Outstanding fine dining flavor combinations , Friendly and knowledgeable staff, Beautiful venue

Wow

Had this on my list for ages and finally went there yesterday with a friend. We took the whole menu and it was truly top notch. Definitely on the pricier side of things, but worth every cent. Every single course was so creative! I love that they use regional/seasonal products and don’t just try to veganize things but come up with highly individual dishes. A great experience & highly recommend for both vegans and omnivores!

Unbelievable experience, truly a MUST

I have been here twice and both times were, to be quite honest, magical. Food presentation was playful, creative, and simply beautiful. Each item was better than the last and kept me guessing. Using seasonal ingredients keeps the focus on the star vegetable, staying both simple and yet complex and surprising. Flavor combinations are varied, with many creative pairings I’ve never seen before. I am so impressed, what more is there to say? My ONLY complaint is that the two hour window was very tight, you don’t have much time for breaks or conversation if you order the whole menu.

Bonus points for an extensive wine menu that also impressed (try the orange wines).

The menu is best ordered in its entirety with another person. The mood is romantic, intimate, and warm. In a word, perfect.

Pros: Creative menu, Great wine selection, Seasonal ingredients

Cons: Time window was very tight

10 stars … or more

The food was not only always delicious but also always had surprising twists which showed that there are creative minds behind the menu. The “tapas share” concept allows one to taste a lot of these creations which I find great. Topped by super friendly service … This was quite something. Applaus and chapeau.
