Down Under - Bad Vilbel

Today I was invited in down under in bad vilbel. I had the Australian rosted skewer and a cocktail the down under cocktail. it was great that I love it! the service was great. I'll be back.

Firstly, as an Australian (not that the staff seemed to notice) I can say that a lot of the food was not authentically Australian. For example, we don't eat kangaroo, emu or crocodile meat and Fosters beer is not even sold in Australia, owned by...an Australian company, nor liked by most Australians. In any case, I found this restaurant okay, but for the price paid the serving size was quite small and the kangaroo meat tasted a lot like beef, just with a higher price. Unless you're really keen to try something so exotic that even Australians don't eat it, you might as well just stick to the steak/burger menu. The service was fairly fast but not all that friendly. There was a large TV showing an EPL game which again, is not Australian. I probably wouldn't bother going back as I could get a nicer meal elsewhere for half the price.

I have to admit that I was dubious at first, but I was persuaded by friends who had already been there to go to Down Under for dinner this past weekend, and I was not disappointed. While I can only comment on the Black Angus...Premium Burger, it was awesome. I have tried multiple times to find a good burger in Germany, but this was the first time I found anything close to what exists in the US. Others at the table enjoyed the Emu Burger and large salad with chicken. Service was also friendly and prompt. A definite find in the suburbs of Frankfurt.

Great atmosphere and great employees! the food was delicious and the drinks were served quickly. always happy.

Dinner for two. first greeted and ordered for eating and drinks. iced tee and a red wine, water, vegetarian burger and a kangaro steak. red wine was delivered immediately and the meal was shortly after, but two had to accept for. the icy that arrived a few minutes after the meal and the second question. the vegetarian burger was ok better than McDonald’s, but left room for improvement and came with a fair size salat and a teller full of chips, the kangaroo steak was also a fair size as they go, but was a bit hard, despite ordered and delivered more on the rare side. it was not helped by a steak knife that did not really fulfill the task. the less the steak was acceptable and the beans packed in speck especially delicious. it also came with five potato croquettes, but it needed an salate to be satisfied with a complete meal for most people. the cranberry sauce was very tasty and a good compliment with the roo. I also had the shiraz, that was ok, but not a big “Australian wine” according to each standard. somewhat disappointed by the weeping and be in the offer only a chardonnay, merlot and shiraz and no recognizable brands in the offer and only fosters bier that avoid most extras! atmosphere was ok and I will give it another try and maybe try the emu, roo, crocodile kebab. Fifteen minutes waiting for the bill and asking two times two different employees was also not good enough, although it was not particularly busy early on a Sunday night. service and Aussie offers have been improved. toilets were clean.
