"We had a reservation today at 12 for lunch. The place is really cute and the host, waiters and chef are great! Super friendly and warm. The food was full of suprising flavors and was presented beautifully. We will come back for sure! Special thanks to the waiter (guy with blond hair) who served most of the dishes and was able to tell us about all the ingredients. Amazing service!"

"One of the best food experiences in my entire life! Originally ordered without desert but decided otherwise over the Wagyu and asked for the full set - was no problem and one of the best decisions ever :D
Wine pairing strongly recommended! Come here to be amazed and entertained - it's both artistic, mid altering and just plain great food filled with love and happiness"

Sankt Benedikt – Aachen - a
Aachen's Sankt Benedikt has been an established part of North Rhine-Westphalia's Michelin-starred fine dining scene since 1982. In the wake of the recent disastrous floods, the Kreus family was only able to reopen its restaurant at the beginning of December 2021 after a tremendous effort. This was much to the delight of diners, who can once again enjoy Maximilian Kreus's classic cuisine in this listed building in the historical centre of Kornelimünster.
