"Wir hatten eine Auswahl von Tapas, die wir uns geteilt haben. Alles war köstlich . Das Ambiente war passend zum Namen im Industrial Style eingerichtet. Es kann schon mal sehr laut werden, da es eine Halle ist."

"Tolle Location wenn man vegetarisch essen gehen möchte. Der Service ist zu Stoßzeiten zwar etwas langsam, aber dafür kann man während des Wartens die tolle Atmosphäre des ehemaligen Maschinenhauses des Schlachthofs genießen. Besonders die belegten, großen Brote sind empfehlenswert. Nicht zuviele der Tapas gleich zu Beginn bestellen - denn man ist schnell bei 30-40€ angekommen…. Im Sommer ist es sehr schön auch draußen zu sitzen. Reservieren ist auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert - besonders am Wochenende."

"Ich bin keine Veganerin oder Vegetarierin. Ich war da, weil meine Freunde, die mir aus Köln besucht haben, Vegetarier sind. Bin dann ohne Erwartung gekommen und war wirklich wirklich geflascht. Das Essen war mega lecker. Die Inneneinrichtung ist cool. Wir hatten eine gute Zeit. Werde zurückkommen."

"Das maschinenhaus ist ein weiteres Juwel auf dem vielseitigen Schlachthofglände. Der Gastraum ist trotz seiner Größe sehr gemütlich und dank der großen Dachfenster auch schön hell. Die Einrichtung ist eine gelungene Mischung aus einem rustikalen Charme, der von den Maschinen vergangener Tage ausgeht, in Kombination mit der natürlichen Ausstrahlung der etlichen Pflanzen, die die Räumlichkeit zieren. Das Essen ist hervorragend und preislich fair, der Service freundlich und ensptannt. Ein klarer Geheimtipp, auch wegen der abwechslungsreichen Mittagskarte."
