This came as a recommendation from my coworkers as a great place for beer and food. In my short…read moretime in Freiburg, I stopped by twice by myself for a large beer and some quick food. I can't judge the food all that much since I only ordered a weisswurst and pretzel but it seemed okay. Compared to some other places, the prices were quite reasonable. It gets crowded but you can often find a spot at the bar. If you want to sit in the beer garden, you can swing by the main restaurant to get pretzels. The beer is light, crisp and refreshing. It was slightly sweet and citrusy for a great hydrating drink. I'd definitely stop by again. Cash only.

We knew we were in for a treat! Appetizers for all included the Asparagus Soup - this was a very creamy soup w/ little hunks of asparagus. Slight spice but the cream & asparagus flavors took center stage. Delish! The Mr & I chose the Gnocchi w/ Cream Sauce & Asparagus - perfectly cooked white asparagus spears & little pillows were tender, w/ just a bit of chew but not doughy. Delish! Dad chose the Whole Baked Trout w/ mixed Salad & said it was flaky & moist & cooked just perfectly Mom chose the Veal Medallions in a creamy mushroom sauce w/ Spaetzle - she said the beef was super tender & she loved the tender spaetzle that soaked up all the sauce Desserts included the Elderberry Sorbet for Dad - very pungent & flavorful. Dad said it was completely refreshing & hit the spot Mon chose the Assorted Chocolate Mousse - white, dark & milk chocolate mousses paired w/ a raspberry coulis. She loved it & wouldn't even think to share - and this was saying something! The Mr chose the Semolina Pudding served in a small glass w/ a raspberry coulis on top - said it was custardy & delish This was a fantastic welcome to Freiburg & a perfect cap on another perfect day touring Germany

If you are looking for regional dishes, this is a great spot, located on a pedestrian only street, so very quiet and tucked out of the way. Just be aware that you have to be aggressive in wanting to pay your check, we waited 20 minutes before I had to put out my arm and block our server from walking by to pay the bill.

This review deals with the Colombi restaurant…read more The Colombi restaurant is probably Freiburg's best dining venue, and it has defended its Michelin star for years now. The restaurant is located on the ground floor of the Colombi hotel and is decorated in the traditional Southern German style. It divides into several different smaller, interconnected rooms that are named after their distinctive decoration items ("Falkenstube", "Arvenstube", "Thomastube"). The place itself is quite spacious, and especially in winter times, having a spot next to one of the tile stoves makes the experience all the more rememberable). Food is inspired by the French cuisine, and the kitchen often uses traditional regional Badenese ingredients and serves them in a more refined way. The menu contains lunchtime offers priced between 30 and 50 EUR, and the tasting menu comes to about 100 EUR. The wine list is quite extensive and contains a great variety of German wines (Freiburg itself is located in the Kaiserstuhl wine region). Personnel is sometimes a bit uptight, and the local staff seems to have been told to hide their local accent which seems a bit pretentious (like wearing dinner suits for serving at lunchtime). However, they are always very friendly and knowledgeable. I have been to the Colombi restaurant on many occasions during the last years and have never been disappointed. If you like a refined approach to local Southern German cuisine, then this is a place I would highly recommend. Although you will also find the classic dishes that are expected to be served in Michelin-starred restaurants (foie gras, dishes using exotic fish or lobster, beef fillet), this restaurant is at its best when using local produce. And it is even great value for money !
