One of the best restaurants in Cologne for years! The fantastic food—meat, fish, and vegetables always cooked to perfection—is a treat every time you visit, thanks to the amazing kitchen team and all the attentive, competent, and incredibly friendly staff. In summer, you can enjoy the food in one of Cologne's most beautiful and peaceful courtyards! 👌🙏 Tip: Try the delicious sorbet and ice cream for dessert! 😋

Highly recommended! Yesterday we had a fantastic table in the beautiful courtyard and enjoyed a four-course meal. The value for money was excellent! The atmosphere is lovely and the decor very cozy. The service was very friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious! The wine pairing was perfect – we would definitely come back.

A truly wonderful evening! I felt incredibly welcome from the moment I arrived. The service was consistently excellent – ​​attentive, warm, professional, and always present without being intrusive. I would particularly like to emphasize how easily and naturally my vegan diet was accommodated. A personalized menu was created for me, which was absolutely fantastic from the appetizer to the main course and dessert. The non-alcoholic beverage pairings were also superbly chosen and perfectly complemented the meal. Every dish was a culinary highlight – everything was wonderfully harmonious and meticulously planned. I also really enjoyed the stylish ambiance and decor, which contributed to a truly special overall experience. The only slight drawback was the noise level in the restaurant. There were several large groups there that evening, which made it a little difficult to have a relaxed conversation at times. Of course, the restaurant can't be held responsible for that, so this point hardly detracts from my overall very positive experience. I can wholeheartedly recommend Acht and am already looking forward to returning on my next visit to Cologne.

The service here is very friendly, making you feel immediately at ease. The ambiance in the courtyard is also impressive, with its harmonious architectural variety and olive trees. The only downside is the unusual table height in relation to the seat depth. At 160cm, I'm not particularly short, but the poor fit of the furniture made it difficult for me to move my arms freely at the table, and it looked rather odd to the person sitting across from me. Since I've never experienced anything like it before, I would describe it as a poor fit. The food was decent, but rather disappointing considering the price and the restaurant's claims on their website. While the variety of textures was interesting, and the presentation was colorful and appealing due to the symmetrical arrangement, the meat was unfortunately a bit tough, and the fish tasted watery in the less cooked areas. For this reason, it will be my only visit.
