Frommer's Review

This soberly styled German standby has provided good-quality food and service at moderate prices since World War II. Here you will be served hearty portions of food, mugs of draft beer, and fluffy pastries; that's why there's always a wait.

Start with Bismarck herring, and then dive into goulash with spaetzle or Eisbein (pigs' knuckles or codillo de cerdo) with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes (minimum two persons), the most popular dish at the restaurant. Finish with the homemade apple tart or Black Forest gâteau. The decor is vaguely German, with travel posters and wood-paneled walls. Edelweiss is air-conditioned in summer.
