The spare ribs are excellent: perfectly cooked and fall off the bone. The sauce is well-balanced and just the right amount, complementing the flavor of the meat without being overpowering.
The portions are generous, and they come with good side dishes, such as seasoned potato wedges, rice, Turkish bread, and a salad. Everything tastes fresh and is well-presented.
All in all, good quality and definitely value for money. In my opinion, it's the best place in Almelo for spare ribs.
SCAM
They automatically charged me for a deposit cup when I ordered a coffee to go, without even asking. When I brought the cup back, they refused to return my deposit and insisted on giving me a plastic token instead. I’d expect this kind of behavior from a tourist trap, but I can’t believe it happened on university grounds.
I have no complaints about the roti. I do have complaints about the hygiene and service, if they even offer it. When picking up, the preparation or order takes an excruciatingly long time, and you'll notice it's unsanitary. Oddly enough, they don't prepare the food behind a counter, but behind closed doors. I don't think I even want to know about the hygiene standards there. They deliver very sporadically, only when they feel like it or when they feel like it, but if you're lucky, set aside half a day for it; it can take a while. All in all, they don't live up to their name. I've heard they're more interested in money laundering, but I'm not sure if that's true. I'm not the one who does their bookkeeping, but it's a strange business, and they're apparently not short on cash.
I bought a salad today and asked to take it home. The girl first looked at me like, "Salad...", then looked at the cash register and started scooping it into a container. When she was done, she said, "I don't have a lid, so I can only give it to you like this." I said, "Just put some plastic around it." She put a bag around it that wasn't even sealed... Then her colleague saw that and said, "We have lids for those too, you know." I also asked for two white, soft rolls and got two bags of rolls. All in all, not a great experience, and it was clear she didn't know what to do.
Echt heel slecht, eten in bakken met een plastic deksel. Het was ongeveer 35 graden binnen, overal om ons heen waren de tafels vies. Bediening was ongeïnteresseerd en er was weinig keuze. Kortom niet doen!!!
I ordered online, but the delivery time was originally an hour, which was already quite long. I figured it was only 7 p.m., so it might still be busy. But the longer I waited, the longer it got. They told me it wouldn't be delivered until 10:30 p.m., only to cancel the order. Now I'm left without food at a time when most restaurants are already closed. Extremely poor service!
At 7:02 PM, the waitress stopped selling ice cream to our waiting children after we'd already been waiting in line for several minutes. Unfortunately, that's never happened to us before!
I come here about once a week. The food is simply amazing. The prices are also lower than other snack bars in Dordrecht.
I never get it delivered. Fries cool down quickly, and they're always very busy.
So, the risk is definitely your own. Pickup is easy...
The people who work here are really nice!
