Restaurant Pyramide

Reviewed By Birgit8888 - Pforzheim, Germany

Wir waren heute mal wieder richtig lecker in der Pyramide essen. Zum ersten mal in dem gemütlichen, südländisch anmutenden Hinterhof. Bestellt haben wir ein 4-Gänge Überraschungsmenü. Nur zu empfehlen! Man fühlt sich wohl, wie bei guten Freunden. Perfekte Gastfreundschaft.

Restaurant Tango

Reviewed By dddd65 - Niagara Falls, Canada

Found tango on TripAdvisor. Great 'off the beaten track' Location - small and intimate. Lovely server - Elisa? Tasty appies/salad my husband was disappointed with his rump steak - too fatty. My grilled veggies and goats cheese were great. Server/owner took steak off bill although we didn't complain. They apologized profusely. Turned a bit of a negative into a real positive and we'll be back. Great wine list, too and knowledgeable server!

Sushi the One

Reviewed By elsalita - White Rock

Perhaps the one and only but certainly the best sushi in Pforzehim, it is a small quint restaurant that serves fresh and new authentic Japanese food, a must try! It was the first time I ever had Sashimi and I am now a raw fish lover! The California rolls were excellent as as the seaweed salad. It was a little pricey but when food is fresh and delicious you don't mind paying for the best!
