Also there were an inordinate amount of flies. The waiters do everything such pulling the beer. Hence, always on the go even though there aren't a lot of customers. I felt a bit short-changed when my beer loss a third of the volume after the foam disappeared. My duck entree plate lacked flavor and the sauce had an odd licorice seasoning. Tipping is for good service so I felt a little uncomfortable with waiter waiting for a tip, but fairly absent while I dining.

Gänsadieb in Dresden serves solid German fare in a calm, classy setting. The fried sausage with…read morepickled cabbage and mashed potatoes was well prepared -- sausage crisp and flavorful (8/10), cabbage nicely balanced, and potatoes as expected. The fried pork stuffed with ham and cheese, served with fries and roasted vegetables, was hearty and rated a 7/10. Service was polite and efficient. In typical German fashion, the staff mentioned it could take up to an hour - customary way of managing expectations for seating or serving. I found this to be good practice, and in our case the dishes arrived in about 15 minutes, Sunday crowd at 5 pm. The ambience was quiet and subdued, with a classy feel. Even though it's a bar, there were no groups, likely thanks to it being a Sunday night. Overall, Gänsadieb offers reliable German dishes with thoughtful service and a relaxed atmosphere, making it a good choice if you're looking for hearty food without the usual bar crowd.
