Food is amazing! We didn't speak German nor Italian, but some of the waitstaff did and had no problems with ordering. We ended up going again the next night because it was so good.

The selection of wines is large, over 300 different wines in their shop. In addition to wine selection they have a full bar. My wife had an excellent gin and tonic. The local gin was very tasty. I was recommended a Kerner wine that was excellent. La Cercia has a nice selection of meats and cheeses that can accompany your wine / coctails. Overall a relaxing and nice experience.
