We were here again on Saturday evening with three people and a reservation – generally a restaurant we enjoy visiting very much. The food, especially the pizza, is very good, and the staff has always been friendly and attentive on our previous visits.
Unfortunately, this time our visit was significantly marred by the neighboring table with a man, woman, and child. The man was constantly on the phone and had music playing, while the woman even moved to another table to participate in a video call. Unfortunately, the volume was so high that we couldn't help but overhear at the immediately adjacent table. The irritation was also clearly noticeable at the next table.
A little more consideration regarding smoking would also have been appreciated. We explicitly do not assume any malicious intent – the close proximity simply made the situation difficult, but they could have easily moved a little further away for a moment.
What we found disappointing, however, was that the staff was clearly aware of the behavior, yet they did not intervene. We deliberately remained silent because we didn't want to provoke any arguments with other guests. This is precisely where we would have liked the restaurant to act as a friendly yet firm host, ensuring a pleasant atmosphere. Loud phone conversations and music shouldn't be tolerated by other diners.
This is especially disappointing because we've genuinely enjoyed coming here in the past. The pizza remains excellent, and the staff is friendly. The terrace is also generally lovely, although it's starting to show its age and could use a refresh in the near future.
Our conclusion: The food and service are still good, but the handling of the clearly disruptive behavior of some guests unfortunately detracted significantly from our visit this time. We would appreciate it if the restaurant would take a more decisive approach in the future.
Yes, ML has been in Wiesdorf for many years and used to be very popular. These days, however, you get the impression that it lacks a passionate manager. The place just sort of runs, and that seems to be enough... The food quality is okay, but nothing more.
For example, the pizza I had was completely generic.
The pizza dough was mass-produced, not hand-kneaded or homemade.
In fact, even with the extra pizza cutter, it was difficult to cut through it despite its thinness. I find that disappointing for a restaurant.
The salad, which was a main course, could also be much better. While the plate was piled high, the proportions of the individual components were extremely unbalanced. There was an excessive amount of tuna and cheese, while the cucumbers and tomatoes were cut into what felt like individual pieces, which were also very large. Yes, a salad (which isn't cheap either...) could be presented better with a little effort.
So, in the end, I can no longer recommend ML as a special restaurant.
We're from the Westerwald region, got stuck here, and found this amazing restaurant. The food is fantastic, and the service is incredibly friendly and attentive. We highly recommend this place
