I wanted to write a memorable review for my very momentous 700th review. I think this one would…read morequalify for this very occasion. In Germany, particularly in Bavaria, stricter COVID-19 Prevention Health Measures Ordinance went in effect in early November 2020. The immediate affect was the closing down of all non-essential businesses including restaurants, retail stores, etc. I still remember how disappointed I was by this since it happened just as I arrived in Germany. Today we actually had a sit-down meal for the first time! Yay, things are finally getting closer to the new normal in Bavaria! There were several restaurants and cafés set up with outdoor seating on this visit. It wasn't a particularly warm day, and there was a little breeze to make it feel chilly. We chose Gasthaus zur Sonne because it was a little set back from the busy street. Just as our drink order was served, they turned overhead heaters and made it more comfortable for us. Service was very pleasant...maître de/cashier lady was very cheerful (perhaps almost over the top), and took our food and drink order right away as we were seated. Young female server was somewhat quiet perhaps keeping balance with gregarious older lady, yet very pleasant and courteous. Our food was very good. It wasn't anything fancy...just bratwurst and salads (beneath the pile of lettuce, there were assortment of typical Franconian pickled vegetables which we really like). Sauerkraut was very good, too. It was altogether a very enjoyable meal. They have both German and English menus.

The outdoor dining area looked like one of the best in town with great lighting, flowers, and lots of tables - would have been a prime spot for people watching and enjoying the nice weather. The interior was smaller, but seemed to have multiple rooms (we sat in the front one). Our server was extremely friendly and helpful, especially since there seemed to be a small discrepancy between the English and German menus provided. I ordered a seasonal special with chanterelle mushrooms, a cream sauce, and bread dumpling. It was very rich without being overly filling. Portions were fairly large and typical compared to most places in Germany. The rest of my family enjoyed their meals, wine and beer, although I can't recall what anyone else ordered - I was too focused on my own dish! I'd definitely eat here again if I make it back to Dinkelsbühl.

I had beer-marinated pork tenderloin. 3 thin, overcooked, and nearly tasteless pieces of pork, served with obviously frozen croquettes and mixed frozen vegetables.

The heavy wooden furniture and decoration add to this and give it plenty of Old World charm. The food is simply delicious and the menu is surprisingly broad for such a small place. Don't be intimidated by the Reserviert signs on all the tables - that's just to keep out the riff-raff. Simply ask the waitress (there's only one) if there's a table available and she'll be sure to seat you. Since it's a Weinstube, there's also a wide selection of local and foreigen wines available. If you need help, the waitress can make a recommendation.
