We recently had a delicious meal of tuna, salmon and an octopus appetizer at Cube while enjoying the spectacular view of Stuttgart. The hostess, Maggie, was delightful, both when I made the reservation and during our evening at Cube. She even helped us take photos to capture the view. Thank you, Maggie!Dear Janekm853, thank you very much for your great feedback. We really appreciate that! Best, Catrin

This is one of our favorite restaurants in Germany! An exclusive dinner in a great location with a perfect wine or non-alcoholic juice pairing is served here. There was nothing to complain and the prices for that fantastic dinner are still moderate. We can recommend all dishes and we will come back again for sure. Nothing to complain!

I booked for dinner on 25th December. We were 2 people. I visited their website and from there I could book for specific time. I know because of Christmas a lot of restaurants are not open at all. They mention it on their website specifically. If the opening time differs from a regular day, it is also mentioned there. So from a restaurant like José y Josefina I excepted, they are right about their opening time on Christmas night. We went there at 19:00 as we had the booking from that time. And, the restaurant was closed. I was really feeling ashamed in front of my guest. What an unpleasant surprise! It is really humiliating. Why then the restaurant let people book table on a day when they are closed. I have still the booking confirmation email. Standing there, I decided that I will never go back there; even if they become the best restaurant in Stuttgart. Does they really care for customer, when they are not even careful about maintaining their website! Hello Fahmida, i wrote you over Facebook and i wrote you that we are sorry about this error and we offer you, if you give us another chance, that you don´t have to pay the dessert and a bottle of water and vine is also for free as apologize for this error, that it was possible to book at 25th of dezember although we were close at this date. Best regards David

"Der Rote Hirsch (the red deer)" is the modern interpretation of a regional wine restaurant. The well designed environment is a good place to enjoy. The concept of the restaurant is to use mostly regional and seasonal ingredients. The cuisine is modern-sw

This is a very nice and cosy place on the town square in Bad Cannstatt. The food was really tasty & fresh - European BBQ beef & local German famous dishes like Schnitzel, & to drink good local wine and some local craft beer. One of the best German dining experiences I had on my trip to Stuttgart.

Restaurant Christophorus

Reviewed By GraemeH187

This would have to be one of the best steakhouses that I have been too. I visited the museum back in 2015, but didn’t get the pleasure of dining at this amazing restaurant. But coming back with my wife, I couldn’t resist to treat her tonight to the restaurant and tomorrow, she is going to beside herself at the pleasure of visiting the Porsche Museum. Being a porsche fan, there was no way I was missing out this time around. But firstly, let’s not get ahead of ourselves and focus on the dinner tonight. We have hired a 2018 Panamera 4 E-Hybrid to get around, so why not start the night off parking in Porche Heaven (aka: the garage below the restaurant), only to drool over the multiple Porsches models all parked there.The staff are friendly, very attentive service and as soon as you sit, you are great with a trolley carting various champagnes and wines to start you off. The menu has something for everyone even if you are a vegetarian in one of the best steakhouses in Europe. Once we had ordered, the waiter delivered a nice surprise for us, a complimentary appetizer of Venison with an onion and apple chutney. For the entree, I went with the clear Tomato soup with Parmesan Ravioli, whilst my wife went with the more safer, Chicken Caesar salad. Being famous for their oversized USA beef steaks, we both had to have steak. When we were about to order the steaks, the waiter comes out with the selection of the various cuts of steak to explain to us each style etc. which makes it easier to choose when you can see what you’ll be eating. I went with the 600gm Prime Rib whilst stacey was more delicate in having the 250gm Lady’s cut Sirloin Strip. The sommelier recommended a cracker local Shiraz wine, which surprised me with the flavours and complimented my steak perfectly. We ordered too much food that we couldn’t do dessert but that didn’t stop them bring out complimentary mini tasting desserts of tarts, macaroons and cakes. Too sum up, Christophorus is hands down the best steakhouse in Stuttgart! The service is impeccable, the staff knowledgeable, and the food is flavorsome and amazing. Tomorrow we will visit the Museum.

Reviewed By Fegelein

So let's run down the basics first:Service: 10/10. This was not german service, this was service in competition with some of the best restaurants in the world. The waiter was genuinly friendly, the somelier carefully selected suiting wines for our dishes, the cook came out and explained some of the dishes.Food: 10/10. We ordered the 5-course dinner, it was more like 11 courses with all the small amusse de bouches in betwen, which really bridged the gap between certain dishes in order not to give a too big contrast.Quality/presentation: 10/10. The quality goes without saying that every detail was top notch, down to the last spice or garnish it was all amazing. Everything was cooked to a level of perfection which could'nt leave any human on this earth dissatisfied. The presentation of some of the dishes are submitted in the pictures. They are not overdoing it, they just make a small show of the food which go well hand in hand with the quality and gives that extra value.Setting/ambience: 10/10. We had the closest you could come to a chef's table. It was a great setting in an old industrial building where they kept the original design. The small chitchatting around you, the attentive waiter/service and total privacy made us very comfortable. A BIG PLUS for not playing music, you go there to eat some of the best food on the continent and enjoy it with wine.Toilets: 10/10. Superclean as expected.Value for money: 10/10. Our bill landed at a respectable amount of euros, but given the experience of eating such unique dishes combined with wine and service made it so worth it.Final words:I will return./Jonas

Hupperts

Reviewed By hatterashoops

If you read the title and you read my December 2016 review, you will learn that Hupperts demonstrates one of the most important aspects of fine dining - consistency. Not just in food quality, but in their approach, service, presentation and friendly, hard-to-replicate atmosphere. Third time is a charm. This latest visit sealed the deal for me. We invited friends with high standards when it comes to dining out. This visit to Hupperts didn't disappoint. I finally got to partake in the sweet cigar/drinks lounge in the basement. We were asked if a fire would be a nice addition - it was a bit cooler - and it was awesome. I really didn't want to leave. The service continued even then...The attitude of the staff is incredibly humble given their background and experience. You will not find a friendlier dining experience in Stuttgart.
