The only caution is that if you're planning to go for dinner on a warm evening, this place has no AC and gets quite hot.

However, the dishes tend to be a little too salty for Chinese diners. Its handmade spätzle stands out from regular noodles: these egg noodles are flat, cut into short individual segments.

The servings are not full servings, they are small plates, but everything was delicious with fantastic presentations. The wine was paired well, which enhanced the taste of everything.

The ambience was soothing, the wait staff was super friendly and the wine was excellent. I'd definitely go back and add it to my list of places to go.

As a recommendation from Rick Steves, my friends and I wanted to try this spot for dinner and the…read morefamous wine carousel. Being the southern American girls that we are, we each wanted our own flight. The server told us that one carousel would be enough for whole table, so we decided to listen to his suggestion. For dinner I chose the shrimp and dill flatbread which was delicious and large enough in size that I had leftovers. The 12 wine carousel was indeed large enough for our table and we each found our favorites. One star down for the wait time. While it is customary to have a nice sit down meal in Europe, I did notice other locals seem to have to flag down the waiter several times.

A wine sampler is a must here as they have a wide range of Riesling and Rose wines. The setting is rather pleasant in a small square with pretty buildings.

The restaurant is quite large and is a gathering place for food and drink, serving traditional German dishes (served family style) and local wine and beer. Schloss Weinhaus serves local beer and wine, and the welcoming servers keep everything coming, from starters, main course and desert. They don't slack on the beverages either. The crowning glory is the live music with standard German and American songs (some Elvis, Roll out the Barrel, et). It's a rollicking good time.

My go-to every time I'm in Heidelberg. This place is under-rated at anything below 5 stars. I've…read morebeen here alone, on dates, with colleagues and even with my parents - all were equally impressed by the wine, the food and the ambiance. The wines by the glass are fantastic - my favourite is the Montepulciano - and they've a full selection in bottles. It's a wine bar so maybe that's expected; where they really excel is with the food. When ordering a main course, you're first treated to a flavourful amuse bouche. The steaks are top-notch, and the other mains (I've tried most of them) are large (sometimes too large), scrumptious and well-presented. The starters really stand out here too. My favourite is the Antipasto Italiano (great for sharing), while the salads are excellent too. Another favourite is the great-value, brine-cured mountain of Italian olives for €5.50. On ordering food you'll also be served freshly baked Italian bread, high quality olive oil with a slightly sharp bite, and sea salt. This is such a tasty combination that I find it hard to resist filling up on oil-dipped bread before the food even arrives! Finally, I love the friendly staff, who recognise and greet me every time, even though I live thousands on a different continent. Service is attentive and friendly by European standards; it's not the US so don't expect to be annoyed every 2 minutes by someone sniffing for tips and filling your water glass and asking how everything is. This restaurant is open late and takes credit cards - perfect for the jetlagged international traveller. They're located in Weststadt, right beside most of Heidelberg's international hotels. So you've no excuse not to stop by when in town.
