    This is certainly the best gutbürgerliche (traditional German food) restaurant in central Hannover…read moreand may be one of the best of this increasingly rare type in all of Germany. The Schweinshaxe and Eisbein are especially fine, the former exploding with molten fat from perfectly crisped skin. I rate Max W. at five stars for doing what it does so well, but to enjoy it--indeed to eat there at all--you must adhere exactingly to its Unwritten Laws. Despite its working man's prices and an interior looking like a down-at-heel Studentenkneipe this is a feinschmeker (gourmet) restaurant and must be treated as such. You need to reserve by telephone at least several days in advance, and humbly offer them an appealing number of diners (ideally either four or six: they have only 25 places at tables and four stools at the bar and must be ruthless about maximizing their yield: do not even think of asking for a table for one; they will simply refuse (reserve--and you do still need to reserve--a seat at the bar). Persons wandering in without a reservation hoping for a table--and especially tourists without German--are treated with fine forthright traditional north-German rudeness: "Nein! Nein! Weg! Weg!" (Sometimes in chorus.) This is a performance--once one has actually received permission to eat there the staff are warm and charming in a rough, Hannover, sort of way--but, I guarantee you (having suffered this) that you will not recognize the tone of your expulsion as a jolly act when it occurs, nor will you notice the ironical pleasure the regulars are taking in your fate, because you have just become a familiar--three or four times an hour--and well-loved part of the evening's entertainment. This is the same particularly German form of quiet rejoycing at the artful humiliation of others that has made Sven, the cruel bouncer at Berlin's legendary Berghain dance club, a figure of national affection. Those refused entry at Max W. become a special German sauce on the already superb food. And whether you end up as a diner or back on the pavement with your head spinning, either way you have had a perfectly authentic Hannover experience.

    Been traveling all over Eastern Europe and this has been the best German food. The food is…read moreauthentic and very reasonably priced.

    Looking for a place off the tourist track and a place with great wine and food, this is the place…read moreto go in Celle. Following reviews here on yelp, we decided to try it out, and found a cosy little wine bar and restaurant in a small alley in the old town. We sat outside in the small courtyard in front of the restaurant, but as one of the few places in Celle, it would have been possible to sit inside too, in the cool wine cellar below the streets. We shared a starter of home made falafel, which was actually really good. First time my girlfriend tried falafel, and she liked it. For the main course my girlfriend had the grilled sword fish with grilled vegetables, and according to her the best vegetables she have had in a long time. I had the veel Wiener schnitzel with potatoes and a delicious mushroom sauce, a very tender schnitzel in just the right size portion. The wine here was probably the best experience of them all. We started with a glass of bubbles on this warm evening, and switched for the main course to the Mosel Riesling (2014), which was probably the best white wine we have had for a very long time - so smooth and delicious, perfect balance between dry and sweet, so fresh! We also tried a glass of rosé, which was also really good, although couldn't beat the Riesling :). Service too was really great. A young and a little shy waitress was so sweet and waited all the tables to perfection.
