Super netter Herr, durchgehend glücklich und super Service. Eigentlich wollte ich Kuchen. Dann hat mich das „egg drop sandwich“ überzeugt. Der Preis ist sehr fair und die Menge puh ! Leider bin ich nur auf durchReise. Ansonsten wäre ich wieder gekommen. Kein Café was für Veganer oder gesundes Essen geeignet ist. Aber günstiges soulfood! Danke

Durch Zufall in das Bistro gekommen und positiv überrascht worden. Total freundliche Bedienung, die auch gerne Extrawünsche erfüllt. Das Essen ist wirklich sensationell, die Soljanka war sehr lecker und das Schnitzel schmeckte auch sehr gut. Ich komme gerne wieder her, weil man sich hier richtig wohl fühlt.

Zu Besuch in Rostock, wollte meine Freundin in alte DDR Erinnerungen schwelgen. Die Soljanka und das Würzfleisch haben uns hervorragend geschmeckt, die Bedienung war sehr freundlich! Wir kommen gerne wieder.
