    (Translated by Google) A very strong campaign of the Maximilian Lorenz restaurant was the catering for flood victims and helpers with a BBQ on 08/28/21 on the village square in Rech in the Ahr valley. The steaks, burgers, and side dishes were more than delicious; the quality was top and the cooking points were hit perfectly. To get more of this quality outdoors, you have to cook excellently in the restaurant. I will definitely pay this restaurant a visit to eat on my next visit to Cologne. (Original) Eine ganz starke Aktion des Restaurant Maximilian Lorenz war die Verköstigung von Flutgeschädigten und Helfern mit einem BBQ am 28.08.21 auf dem Dorfplatz in Rech im Ahrtal. Die Steaks, Burger und Beilagen waren mehr als köstlich ; die Qualität war top und die Garpunkte wurden perfekt getroffen. Mehr so eine Qualität Outdoor hinbekommen, muss im Restaurant auch vortrefflich kochen. Definitiv werde ich bei meinem nächsten Köln Besuch diesem Restaurant eine Visite zum Essen abstatten.

    Came here when the restaurant was under a different name and ownership, my expectation was high upon returning. This is the closest thing to a food experience I have had in Cologne. Food, service, wine menu are all top notch. We went with the traditional menu and were very impressed. The taste and presentation were perfect, I cannot wait to come back here again. Absolutely delicious!

    Excellent menu from the first amuse gueule to final Petit fours. Extensive wine list. So recommended, but make sure you don't get the table in the corner next to the service station - uncomfortable light and of course a lot of traffic there. At least we received a glass of bubbles as an apology.

    Leider nur 1-Stern. Aber ich will auch erklären warum: hab mit meinem Mann Jahrestag gefeiert und uns was gegönnt. Aber die Art und Weise wie man sich als "normaler" Gast behandelt wird, wenn man nicht noch extra Weinbegleitung nimmt ist nicht schön. Essen war okay. Will ich erst mal nicht beurteilen, denn jeder Geschmack ist anders. Aber leider sonst ein Nein und kein weiterer Besuch.

    Pleasant dining room and great food. Service was friendly although a little inattentive at times.

    Everything was splendid and I might consider it that was one of the best experience I have ever had with michelin starred restaurants.

    Ein schönes, legeres Restaurant mit leckerem Essen. Wir waren zum Valentinstagmenü dort. Die Speisen waren sehr lecker. Jedoch hatte eine Person am Tisch bei der Vorspeise keine Rote Beete. Dafür kam leider keine Entschuldigung oder Anderes. Schade! Das Brot kam nur auf Nachfrage und wurde nicht nachgefüllt. Der Service war sehr im Stress, aber sehr nett und aufmerksam. Die Weinbegleitung war stimmig. Wir kommen gerne wieder und hoffen, dass es beim nächsten Mal besser klappt

    Went in May and only getting round to reviewing now but still felt compelled to. Food was undeniably interesting and tasty but that’s where the positivity stops. When we arrived we felt unwelcome. The atmosphere was stark and cold, borderline rude. We were given two choices of menu but zero assistance was provided and when we chose they actually started by bringing out the wrong menu - we had to convince them this was indeed the case. Each course looked fantastic but was plonked on the table by the waiter without further explanation. Wine tasting was not offered nor was assistance provided and as a result, the hefty price tag felt way beyond what was reasonable. The magic in these places is not just in the food but also the journey and unfortunately I think this restaurant has got it way off. Disappointing - recommend saving your money for the fantastic bars and restaurants in the old town where the service is fantastic.

    We celebrated NYE there. The food was ok but expected a little more for 1 star Michelin restaurant. At the other hand we didn’t spend much. Was just 80 euro per head + drinks. My steak was little cold. They didn’t ask how we want our steak done. Nice atmosphere…we will try again

    Came here with two friends from the USA, who had never had a fine dining experience of this level. We were extremely happy with the food, the service and the overall feel of the restaurant. We received some great wine recommendations from the wait staff and our requests to avoid anything fish-based for one member of our party were met with great alternatives. Would 100% come again, if in the area. I want to emphasize again that the staff was absolutely on point and were a major factor the experience was as great as it was.

    (Translated by Google) For me, Maximilian Lorenz is one of the best chefs in town! I love going to both the starred restaurant and the bistro. Maximilian's team is very nice and highly professional. The selection of wines is outstanding! (Original) Maximilian Lorenz ist für mich einer der besten Köche der Stadt! Ich gehe sowohl in das Sterne-Restaurant als auch das Bistro wahnsinnig gerne. Das Team von Maximilian ist sehr nett und höchst professionell. Die Auswahl an Weinen überragend!

    Ein legeres Restaurant, welches nicht mehr verspricht als es liefert. Service hatte sehr viel zu tun, dementsprechend gestresst waren sie. Trotz vollem Laden gab es keine langen Wartezeiten und das Essen war sehr lecker. Klar ist das für die Preise auch zu erwarten, aber es ist ja trotzdem nicht selbstverständlich. Am besten gefiel mir, wie mein Auge genau so verwöhnt wurde, wie meine Geschmacksknospen. Komme bestimmt nochmal wieder! (Translated by Google) A casual restaurant that promises no more than it delivers. Service was very busy, so they were stressed. Despite the full store, there were no long waiting times and the food was delicious. Of course, that's to be expected for the prices, but it's still not a matter of course. What I liked best was how my eyes were spoiled just as much as my taste buds. Will definitely come again!

  • 5/5 Frank E. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We had already indulged in one of the great out-of-home menus several times, for about 50 euros per nose. Great option during these times! You still have to prepare / heat up a little yourself, but then you have a great 5-course menu! It was a pleasure. 100% recommendation. (Original) Wir hatten jetzt schon mehrmals eines der tollen ausser Haus Menues gegönnt, für ca 50 Euro pro Nase. Tolle Option in diesen Zeiten! Ein klein wenig muss man noch selber anrichten/erhitzen, aber dann hat man ein tolles 5-Gang Menue! Immer gerne wieder. 100% Empfehlung.

    Wir fahren zu einem schönen Sommerabend im Restaurant Maximilian Lorenz. Das Menü war top! Leicht, lecker, besonders! Die Weine harmonierten und somit ein schöner Abend. Die Kellner waren sehr zurückhaltend- was ganz ok war, da wir zu viert waren. Die Einrichtung ist modern, dunkel (schwarz), Edel. Passt! Das Essen war so lecker wie es aussieht! Gerne wieder 👏😊 (Translated by Google) We go to a nice summer evening in the Maximilian Lorenz restaurant. The menu was great! Light, tasty, special! The wines harmonized and thus a nice evening. The waiters were very reserved - which was ok as there were four of us. The decor is modern, dark (black), classy. Fits! The food was as tasty as it looks! Gladly again 👏😊

    很开心能够在这里庆祝女朋友的生日,餐厅准备良好,同时也送了两道非常好吃的菜,主厨的菜也是非常有创意,菜品也非常好,但是在这里我想提两点建议,第一就是服务质量有待提高,服务的人员身上有烟味,这一点我非常介意!第二就是以及上菜过程中服务员的手碰到了菜品,整体都非常好,就是希望下一次服务能够更加提高。谢谢

    Amazing gourmet journey

  • 5/5 Andreas Z. 10 months ago on Google
    Étant un fin amateur et connaisseur de cuisine gastronomique,je peux vous le dire, ce restaurant vaut bien son étoile Michelin. En effet, les plats sont très bien effectués, ils sont raffinés et très savoureux. Si vous êtes comme moi en voyage seul, n'hésitez pas à y faire le détour. En plus, le restaurant n'est pas trop loin de gare. Le service est au top du top, très à l'écoute du client et très cordial. Si vous hésitez entre deux restaurants, allez chez Maximilian Lorenz. Vous ne serez pas déçus!

    Gutes Essen in stilvollem Ambiente. Definitiv eine top Adresse in Köln.
