How I rate restaurants is based on 4 things. One cleanliness, two, the food quality , three , the…read morecostumer service, and 4, price . Let's start off first with food quality. Over all the food is genuine German cuisine. I took the schnitzel with fries and so did my two food tasters. I am disappointed though in the complete lack of customer service to the guests who were there , towards our table , and to the employees. There was an older gentleman who seems to be running the establishment but was yelling at his employees, and the cherry on top was when he slammed my menu on the table. I am not over exaggerating. It was very busy because of the football game going on and the staff seemed lost and overwhelmed by it. I will say this (because the establishment doesn't deserve a full review) if you cannot handle the heat in the kitchen then you should get out. I will not return and I feel completely sorry for those who were there and for future guests. One star for the cleanliness of the bathroom And tables only .

Great friendly, attentive staff. Very good "old fashion/traditional" German restaurant. Area is…read moredecent too. Menu is large enough to accommodate a fairly wide range of pallets. However, the duck breast wasn't very lean, over salted, and kinda tough. Sauce was good. Veggies a bit below average. Kolsh beer is the beverage of preference to wash down the meal. English menu offered. CC accepted but not encouraged. Place has traditional charm, but has been opened less than 10 years. May not be the one place to eat if you only have one night in lovely Köln.

Cuisine: 7 Service: 6…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 6 Overall: 7 Popular restaurant on a busy corner in Cologne, four of us enjoyed a nice meal for early dinner. Not everything was great, but a decent meal overall. It was my second Schweinshaxe (pork knuckle) on this trip in Germany and it was even better than the first one. Super crispy and crunchy skin, filled with juicy, tender and flavorful pork meat. Skip the Sauerbraten (beef roast). It was dry and disgusting. Hash browns as a side was delicious though. Good place to people watch, though service is spotty. If you don't mind that, chill with a nice glass of Kölsch (Cologne's beer of choice) and enjoy the view and festive atmosphere.

Countless times workers walked right past us ignoring us. We tried to get their attention to get a table to eat yet none of them wanted to. We waiting, standing there looking directly at the workers for approx 20 mins before we gave up and left to go somewhere else that would actually have us. Could definitely do a better job making sure all customers are attended to.

It was a little difficult for us to get to since we were driving a rental car(parking is tough in this part of the city). I highly encourage you to go here.
