What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Amadeus is widely praised for its delicious, tender, and unlimited spare ribs, offering fantastic value for money in a charming, vintage setting.

Booking ahead is strongly advised due to its immense popularity.
"Absolutely amazing! The pork ribs were hands down the best I’ve ever had – perfectly cooked, full of flavour, and fall-off-the-bone tender. The curried butter jacket potato was delicious and paired so well with the ribs.
The restaurant is clearly popular, and rightly so! Definitely make sure you book a table because they get very busy. Highly recommend!"

"I think we were not very lucky with the specific day and time because the service was quite slow. The dishes took lots of time to come and after that it was very tiring to ask to the staff for a bottle of water, ribs refill or something else.
Once this is said, the ribs were very nice and the place atmosphere is cool. The restaurant is huge with lots of tables in different rooms.
We were there with kids and they enjoy it very much also. You can ask for them the kids ribs menu that theoretically does not come with refill, but at the very end they can ask for more and the staff will give them more.
The all ribs you can eat formula is cool in this place. Almost everyone you'll see here come to eat that way.
Hope to come back another day and enjoy a better service."

"Beautiful restaurant with a vintage feel. Service was super fast and food was good. Visited the Christmas markets and we always enjoy ribs so decided on the fly to give it a go and we'll worth the money. If you are around, give it a try and I'm pretty sure you won't regret it."
