"Wer das Germanische Museum in Nürnberg besucht, sollte eine Pause im Café Restaurant ARTE einplanen. Diese gastronomische Einrichtung hat im Juli 2022 eine Erweiterung der besonderen Art erfahren. Der kleine Klosterhof, ein wirklich sehr verstecktes Juwel für den Sommer in der Stadt, darf nun auch für eine Pause bei Kaffee, Kuchen, feinem Essen oder auch nur für ein Glas Wein genutzt werden. Es ist wirklich eine der schönsten Terrassen in Nürnberg. Umgeben von efeuberankten Mauern der fast 600 Jahre alten Mönchshäuser (Reste eines historischen Kartäuserklosters) gruppiert sich unter einer alten Weide der neue, kleine Außenbereich des ARTE. Der Service war sehr gut, die Gerichte bemerkenswert. Wir kommen wieder. Keine Frage!"

"Ein weiteres Highlight im Germanischen Nationalmuseum! Nach unserem Besuch im Museum, haben wir heute zum ersten Mal hier auch gegessen. Wir waren absolut begeistert. Das Arte befindet sich quasi im Keller des Museums, ist Dank großer Fenster nach oben aber angenehm hell. Natürlich bekommt man den Museumsbetrieb mit und es halt in dem großen Raum etwas, dennoch haben wir gemütlich gegenüber der Bar gesessen. Der Service war exzellent und freundlich. Vielleicht hätte es nicht eine Kraft mehr zur Mittagszeit gebraucht, aber wir waren ja nicht in Eile. Das Highlight ist das Essen. Eine toll abgestimmte Auberginensuppe als Vorspeise. Danach vorzügliche und auf den Punkt gegarte Kalbskoteletts und einmal die Spinatknödel. Es war einfach alles wirklich gut! Die Garpunkte, der Geschmack, das Anrichten. Vielen Dank. Wir können den Zwischenhalt hier nur wärmstens empfehlen."

"Cafe Arte is a gem. Friendly and professional table service is complimented by delicious, well-balanced meals. Don't leave the (also lovely) museum without enjoying at least a coffee and a slice of cake."

"Empfehlenswert! Hane heute eine Veranstaltung im Museum besucht und durfte in den Genuss des "hauseigenen" Caterers kommen. Sehr freundliches Personal. Lächelt immer, ist zuvorkommend und aufmerksam. Die Speisen, egal ob Häppchen, Mittagessen oder Kuchen, waren sehr gut. Aller höchste Qualität, fein abgestimmt und geschmacklich Klasse. Leider kann ich zu den Preisen nichts sagen. Die anderen Bewerter sprechen von "höherer Preisklasse". Die dürfte hier für die Leistung aber auch angemessen sein."

"Situated within the Germanisches Nationalmuseum, Café Arte is a good place for a lunch break when visiting the museum. The food is delicious and service is excellent, if slightly more expensive than average. Perhaps the most inconvenient aspect was the lack of an English menu; I would advise tourists who don't understand German (like me) to keep Google Translate handy."
