Café Kaiser Maximilian

Frommer's Review

This bistro-style cafe has a casually elegant atmosphere with a genuine European feel. It's the prime place to go if you want to combine exceptional food with great people-watching. Austrian-born owner Andreas Rupprechter is always on hand to ensure that the service is as impeccable as the food is delicious. Indoor, air-conditioned dining is at cozy tables; sidewalk tables are larger and great for groups of friends. The cuisine merges old-world European preparations with regional fresh ingredients. My favorite is filet of trout with spinach, tomato, and almond ragout; but also notable is their mustard chicken with mashed potatoes; and the rack of lamb with polenta, endives, and lima beans is simply divine. Desserts are especially tempting, as are gourmet coffees -- Maximilian has an Austrian cafe and pastry shop next door.
