"This very smart and attractive restaurant has an unusual outside seating area. On the main road side is a large stone picture frame water feature with many water spouts pouring down like a waterfall. The inside is very attractive and looks elegant and comfortable. My dining partner and I sat outside. She was not very hungry so has a wild leaf salad with a raspberry dressing. The dressing tasted great, the wild leaf salad & herb leaves were a little too bitter for her. I had a dish of tagliatelle with chanterelle mushrooms, garlic, white wine, cherry tomatoes and spring onion. The sauce was a little too runny but the flavours and al dente mushrooms tasted very good. My house chardonnay was also crisp with a light touch of fruit. Their 'fresh' fish dishes at over EUR 30 are top of the range prices more in common with Frankfurt. I would however go there again."

"Wir gehen ganz oft dort, das Essen ist lecker, Service auch ok, Personnel sehr nett und freundlich. Ausser von Speissekarte gib auch immer Menu of the Day von Fisch, Pasta, Fleisch oder Steak. Meine Kinder essen gerne dort Pizza. Im Sommer kann Man im Hof sitzen, aber drinnen auch sehr gemütlich. Mann muss am besten Reservieren, sonst immer voll. Ich denke das Restaurant ist ein von Best Itallienisches spezialität in Darmstadt. So viel Plätze drinen auch nicht zu viel aber trotzdem sehr angenehm. Gib Parkplatz am Restaurant aber leider nur für 2 Autos, aber in der nähe gib auch Parlk möglichkeit. Das Restaurant hat Montag ruhetag. Der Preis ist ja akzeptable."

""What is not to like?" says the BF, about this cozy English pub featuring incredible Indian food?!? After being seated we were greeted by a friendly Indian woman who suggested we try a couple of dishes that she personally oversaw. We were delighted with the tomato based chicken curry and rice served with a delicious lentil soup and the crown jewel, a speciality platter with small bowls of rice, lamb, a potato mixture, paneer (cheese curds), yogurt with carrots and a mint sauce. Both dishes were accompanied with paper thin crispy Nan. (They also offer a vegetarian version of this specialty.) If you prefer something other than Indian food, there are lots of options available on the large menu. If you are curious about the steak with cheese sauce mentioned by other reviewers the chef that offers that specialty is there on Fridays, otherwise you can cook your own steak on a stone. Check out their website as the menu changes. We have definitely found the best Indian food around and will be going back SOON!"

"The place was packed on an early Saturday night, but we had reserved. At first we were assigned a tiny table at the hallway where everyone who needs to go to the bathroom passes closely behind one's back. We expressed our dissatisfaction with this and then were offered a table close to the entrance that was somewhat better. Why not from the beginning? The staff was stressed and each time a different person appeared at our table. Some were friendly, others curt. The atmosphere was loud and hectic, which was not helped by the very narrow spacing of tables. In any case, in due course our order was taken and it did not take too long to arrive. This was possible, because clearly much of the food is prepared in advance and only heated up. For example, the Tajine dish was served in one, but it was clearly not prepared in it. The food tastes ok, but we would have expected more seasoning, it was a little bland. Portions are generous, perhaps even too large. There is a short list of bottled wines, but prices are marked up steeply. Altogether, the price tag seems a little high for the delivered quality. In summary, while there is nothing deeply wrong with Djadoo, we were left with a mere average impression. But they were turning three or four seatings per table, so many other customers are clearly more pleased."

"This family-run restaurant has long been our favorite. We first ate here in 2000 when we moved to Graefenhausen. Meanwhile we have moved away, but we still stop by to eat when we are in the neighborhood. The prices are still very reasonable, the quality is excellent, and the service is very friendly. The homemade bean soup (Bohnensuppe, 3.00€) is a good appetizer. For a main, we like the ground meat filled with cheese (Spezial Plejeskavica, 9.90€) or the schnitzel in a creamy cheese sauce (Schnitzel König Tomislav, 10.50€). Both are served with fries and include the house salad. Opening hours are daily from 11:30-14:30 and 17:30-24:00 except Tuesday. After 13 years, we were happy to find the Family Donlic there to welcome us for dinner. Nothing has changed, it is still excellent!"
