It would be easy to walk right past this little place--I did just that the first time I was in the neighborhood! But don't do that--you want to eat here. This place is a lovely little gem.
I came in around 8 on a Thursday night and took one of the last seats in the house. The atmosphere was great--lights low, wood fresh, good music (Jimi Hendrix, among others). It was easy for me to focus on the book I was reading, which was really nice.
I couldn't make up my mind, so I picked the Knoedeltricolore and a glass of zweigelt. The zweigelt was the best wine I've had so far in Germany--smooth, slightly jammy. When the knoedel arrived a bit later, I had to take a picture because the three colors looked so pretty.
For the three colors, you get a beet, spinach, and cheese dumpling. I believe all of them had ricotta inside--don't quote me. All of them were good, but I may have preferred the beet to the others. I ate my meal about as slow as I could, really trying to savor each bite. The salad that came with the dumplings was much better than your usual side salad with nice, fresh lettuce. I would go back here again in a second! read more
