Schnitzelbank is the highest rated restaurant in Heidelberg, and with just cause…read more We lucked out coming here around 1430 HRS because we just missed the lunch rush and just beat the early dinner crowd. The weather was beautiful for sitting outside. I wish I had gotten our server's name because he was outstanding. Friendly, witty, and willing to help navigate the menu - he made our dining experience even better. We started with a couple of local wines that were amazing - a red and a rosé. Some bread and butter came to our table with our escargot starter and side salad. The bread and starter were delicious. Our snails were hot and garlicky with plenty of juice to sop up. The side salad was also very tasty and fresh. For our mains I went with the Schnitzelbank Platter and my lady went with the Pepper Schnitzel. My platter came with a local delicacy called saumagen, as well as roasted pork, sausage, roasted potatoes, and sauerkraut. The saumagen was the highlight for me. Our server was also excited we got it. It is a local offering consisting of various meats and other items wrapped up in a stomach and served as a loaf-style meat. The pepper schnitzel was also outstanding - the sauce was indeed peppery, but it didn't smother the schnitzel, which was breaded nicely and not dry, as some schnitzels can be. And after all that food, still, an apple strudel. This was so worth it. I don't even like sweets in the USA, but in Europe, they are something else. This was something else. We had a lot of great meals on our trip, but this was probably the best. Not just for the food, but for the overall experience, it's easy to see why this is the shining star in Heidelberg.

The women's/men's washrooms are clean (small, not handicapped friendly, but clean) all in all, this is a good restaurant and bar for German cuisine. What absolutely flabbergasted me was that the restaurant chooses to charge €4.20 for a glass of water, be hot or cold. It was explained to me that the water is treated with minerals, etc., etc. but basically it's just water. It was not served to me in a sealed bottle, just a glass. One needs to ask for ice as ice is not provided otherwise here. My friend who had requested hot water, said that it tasted like hot water from the tap, not even boiled water. I guess it's just a cultural difference because as all of us know from Japan, America, and most other places, water is complementary and the many cases there is no charge at all for a refill glass of water, but at this restaurant they do (see receipt) so my advice to you is if you do decide to dine at Lowenbrau Heidelberg, order any beverage other than water because the water seems to cost more than any other beverage on the menu!! If charging for a non-bottled water that is only served in a glass, I could understand €1-€2 but not €4.20!!! Absolutely ridiculous!! Other restaurants in Heidelberg where we have dined, do not charge such an exorbitant amount for simple water. I really do not understand how they can justify this. They should tell customers right away that there is a charge for water.(especially if it's just in a glass!!)

I ordered the pork shank, since it's a traditional dish I really wanted to try. Unfortunately, mine turned out quite dry, and a few locals in the group confirmed that it can be hit-or-miss. That said, the rest of the experience more than made up for it. The service was good and the staff were great, managing our big group smoothly and keeping things friendly. The real highlight was the beer--absolutely delicious, rich, and exactly what you'd hope for from a Brauhaus. Overall, while the pork shank wasn't my favorite, the combination of great staff, lively atmosphere, and excellent beer makes Vetter's a spot I'd recommend, especially if you're in Heidelberg with friends or colleagues.

We didn't get anywhere near the variety of side dishes offered in restaurants in LA. Instead, there was only 3 small side dishes of pickled radish, kimchi and bean sprouts...quite a disappointment way to start a meal. We had the veggie bibimbap and the beef with noodles. The bibimbap was nicely cooked in a stone pot and it was sizzling hot when it arrived at the table. I liked all the vegetables in there. The beef with noodles dish was mediocre and it was missing some seasoning. Overall, Soban serves good quality Korean food in the middle of Heidelberg. However, It didn't live up to the hype as other reviewers mentioned.
