My friends and I were on a bike ride and were looking for something to eat late at night. Luckily, we stumbled upon this great restaurant. The schnitzel was a 10 out of 10, and the owner and staff were very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend The Serve to everyone!

For us, this is THE restaurant in the region. Good food, friendly, attentive service, and a wonderfully inviting atmosphere. Best regards to the owner!

Visited during a bike tour. Beautifully situated on the Ruhr River. The food was delicious, and the service was super nice, friendly, and welcoming. The value for money is also excellent. We'd love to come back!

Great value for money. The best restaurant I've been to in Essen so far. The owner is super friendly and the location is perfect.

This restaurant is a phenomenon for me. Further down in Kettwig, you 're sitting on a silver platter, and here at 'The Serve, ' you 're on a beautiful terrace surrounded by trees, flowers, and small hedges, lovingly arranged. You 're the guest of a fantastic and very friendly team who truly care about your well-being. All the dishes we 've had so far have been fresh, delicious, and generously portioned. In addition to the à la carte menu, there 's a daily special that rivals that of a Michelin-starred restaurant. I simply have to recommend this restaurant/beer garden, even at the risk of having less space here soon. Keep up the good work, and you 'll reap the rewards.
