Domingos - Marburg

Service performance does not live up to this hotel restaurant's decor aesthetics. Dishes that could have been excellent did not quite come off as well, leaving the customer with the feeling that there was some pretense in the public representations made by the management.

That restaurant lies on the other side of the road where St. Elizabeth Church is located and just a few meters from it. It’s not therefore far from the tourist center of Marburg.It’s a good restaurant where some Spanish specialities can be savoured. The dishes not falling within that scope are also well cooked with excellent ingredients. I ordered a rumpsteak and it was rather tasty.The restaurant decoration is very nice. It consists mainly of Spanish motifs. The atmosphere is rather attractive albeit sometimes there are some tourist groups which make it a bit noisy. The music volume is not disturbing.The waiters are in general very kind, professional and helpful. The manager is also kind with the customers though a bit too serious. It’s a recommendable place where it’s convenient to eat while in Marburg. It would be a shame to leave that city without having tasted that restaurant food, particularly some of the Spanish specialities stated on the menu.

There was a special offer 11:30-2:30 of soup, buffet of tapas, main course and dessert when I was in Marburg. Good service, too.

I wanted to like this restaurant because it is so convenient to Marburger Hof Hotel where I was staying. I ordered Garlic Chicken expecting a chicken breast, but was served overcooked, chopped up pieces of chicken still on the bone. The vegetables were also overcooked and tasteless.

We were staying at the Marburger Hof, and got back late one evening. Didn't feel like a full dinner, but wanted something light. We decided to try Domingo's, the Spanish restaurant with an entrance on the west side of the hotel lobby. A menu on a stand outside the door helped us find what we wanted. Since it was so late (after 9pm, as I recall), we were almost the only folks there. The decor of the restaurant was quite nice, and the staff was friendly. We ordered just the mixed salad, and tea, and finished with ice cream & fruit all around. The dishes were good--not large, but certainly sufficient. Overall, for a party of four, our bill came to about 40 Euros. Not cheap for salad and dessert, but not too out of line for Germany (which includes a built-in 19% tax). Overall, an enjoyable meal. Hopefully, next time we're in town, we'll certainy to try Domingo's for a proper dinner.
