Like other great finds in Germany Schnitzelbank was a Yelp recommended find. Tucked into a side…read morestreet off the main drag we found our way back to this hidden gem. With only a few tables in the place you quickly make new friends and end up dining next to strangers. We originally sat with a couple of local Germans and after they left a musician from the local college joined for her meal. Great schnitzel options here and true charm stood out for us. Would highly recommend this place to others in Heidelberg.

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.

He was shocked that it was my husband's 50th birthday. We ordered the Apfel Strudel for dessert. He brought it with a lit tea light candle on the plate. Very cute. The food was amazing. I ordered the mushroom soup and potato pancakes. I almost ordered a second soup - it was so good. My husband's schnitzel was excellent. It was just what we wanted. Low-key, good and relaxing. People watching is top notch. Great beer selections and full bar for mixed drinks. I ordered Gluwein as I was trying to warm up. Loved it.

This spot has a lot of space, so you can have your own space as an seperate group if you want. Everyhing looks clean and in place. Service: Havent seen a waiteress/waiter, who was not totally friendly and brought me my orders with a respectable speed. Food: Mostly local and german cuisine. The have a wide range of good food for flesh eater as well as vegetarians on their menue. I've been there 4 times so far, and everything had a very fresh and awesome taste. Even if I try some new dish every time, I've never been disappointed. Summary: If you find yourself in this area = go there for food. 5 Stars because I would go again there, when I come back to this area.

Great brewery on a cozy street. Our server was funny and gregarious…read more I had to order the Vetters 33, aka the "strongest beer in the world." I wasn't driving, so warum nicht? It was fantastic. I only ordered a .11l as I didn't want to be carried to the train. I'd eaten a large lunch earlier, so just got the buttered pretzel. It was tasty. My uncle ordered a vegetarian Vetter's Devil and liked it. He got the larger of the 33 and the server said, "don't tell her, but I like you better." Ha! I'll definitely bring friends and family here again.

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.

Also, the prices are reasonable for the experience. The 1st time I went here I had a quail which was delicious and enjoyed a crisp Riesling wine. For dessert I had the crème brûlée was pretty good. That time I went as a party of 3, but it was good we added a couple to make a party of 5. The next time I had the seafood bouillabaisse with some honey chamomile tea. The soup was delicious and the tea was presented well (tasted fine). Everyone appeared to enjoy their meal quite a bit. I tried the beef which was also delicious while the pork was a bit dry (still tasty). Overall, I highly recommend this place for a nice dinner (I'd totally have a romantic date here).

Sometimes I think I must be complainy, difficult and a very demanding customer, but this time I…read moremust say I was calm and relaxed and I just do not know what was going on that last time I visited "Le Coq" in Neuenheim. I was pleasantly surprised that when we were able to get a table without reservations at one of my favorite bistros in Heidelberg, on a Thursday night at that. Firstly rule, if you want to eat at Le Coq is make a reservation. Being able to walk in and get a table is like trying to win the Lotto, it doesn't happen often but you are very happy when it does. Naturally, the place was packed and we sipped a very good Sauvignon Blanc from the open wine list and chatted, while waiting for our main courses. Our food came and both my friend, J., and I realized that our fish with champagne sauce and spinach was terribly undersalted. No problem, we both grabbed the salt shaker a few times and added some salt to our meal. No complaining going on here, just a few joking comments about the cook definantly not being in love. Time to pay and the very nice waiter asks us how the food was people he asked am I supposed to say good if it is undersalted. Hmmmm?! So we mentions that the fish entree could have used more salt. Is that really so terrible? Hmmmm?! Didn't think so until the manager came over smelling like stale smoke and berates, yes berates, us for my comment. Telling me that I know nothing about making delicate champagne sauce and feeding 100's of people a night. (Hey, who knows maybe the other 100 people thought the fish was undersalted. Do I know?) I gently try to let him know that I was asked how the food was and mentioned it was undersalted, no crime on my part and hey, I am still the customer and paying a good EUR 20,00 for my dish. Do I deserve this kind of attitude from the manager? So anyways, now that I have vented, I feel better. I still love the french bistro Le Coq in Neuenheim, but I hope the manager has a better day the next time I eat there and the cook uses a bit more salt. Hey, but that is just my opinion.
