The salad had potatoes that were soaked in a vinegar and oIl based dressing. I am positive that my description does a huge disservice. I had three filet dinner with chicken, lamb and beef. All tender and tasty! They were joined by a pasta with a delicious gravy. All was topped off fried apple rings and vanilla ice cream. When in Stuttgart Germany I highly recommend this restaurant.

If I'm back in the area I'll give Staffele another visit, but I'm rounding up from 3.5 based on the…read morefirst visit. Staffele is a cute little place tucked back into the side streets in the seam between the Mitte, Sud, and West neighborhoods, a quick walk from Feuersee. The inside is old-school dark and pub-like, but outside they have a small (covered) beer garden with a handful of tables. You are right in the city, but tucked into a tiny side-street, so it's still nicely quiet. We found the service to be okay, but even more business-like than our other meals of the week. As far as the food went, the jaegerschnitzel was good, and the maultaschen with eggs was one of my favorite dishes of the trip. Usually maultaschen seems to be served as a giant meat-filled ravioli with a cream sauce or broth, but here they serve it chopped into bite-sized pieces, pan-fried with eggs, and without sauce (vaguely like fried-rice, but with meat ravioli). It was a nice change of pace and a tasty choice. If I find myself in the area again, I'll stop by and try some more of the menu out...

It is definitely not a tourist site judging by how many locals were around us! It looked like this was their regular restaurant spot! The atmosphere was so welcoming. Several large tables had 8+ people groups who seemed like they were having a blast and were there when I arrived and looked nowhere close to being done when I left! The menus are all in German but luckily a staff member caught on to my incompetent German and gave me an English menu that was tucked away. There are about 8 main dishes plus several vegetarian options, and soups/sides/dessert. It may seem like it's not an extensive menu but rather, they focus on making homemade components to their dishes and they make them really well! I ate the fried Maultaschen with egg, it came with a lovely salad with some hidden tastiness! My husband ate the lentils with spätzle and two sausages. I came back two days later after my first visit and ordered a the "Terine Gainsburger marsch", which was a soup/stew with tender beef pieces, potatoes, carrots and spätzle in a flavourful beef broth. I loved it! I finished my meal off with a bread pudding which had a lovely mix of textures and flavourful cream sauce on top! Service was very friendly. I left with my pants feeling tighter and super satisfied that I ate some authentic Swabian cuisine.

Parked on the street and since I didn't have change, the server was good enough to let me borrow a parking permit so I didn't need to feed the meter. Server was great and willing to explain the various dishes. Ordered the tripe stew, German raviolis and schnitzel. While my kids didn't enjoy it as much, I thought it was great. Really liked their potato salad. While food and service was definitely a solid four, the ambiance/weather (especially when it's hot) and credit card is why I held out to 3.5. If the food is the same the next time, I'll bump up to a to a 4.

The menu had so many different items on it- all German food of course which was interesting because although I am Half German I never really ate the food. I ended up getting the fried schnitzel since I always wanted to try it, a salad and an orange and cola soda. They were known for the soda that was an orange and cola mixed together soda- it was interesting for sure. My sister seemed to enjoy it more than me- guess I was used to our Coca Cola instead. As far as the salad- for some reason in Germany they put Cole slaw mixed in with regular salad- interesting for sure, but tasty cause I love Cole slaw. The fried schnitzel was okay- I ate it but probably would never eat it again cause it definitely wasn't what I was used to eating. All the foods were so foreign to me. The best thing about the meal was the dessert. Me and my sister ended up sharing dessert and it was a fried pastry with apples and cinnamon. It was so yummy. I prob wouldn't be back to Germany for some time- but if I ever return, I'd give this place another try.

The second time we sat outside and had a wonderful meal. My wife ordered a cheese spatzle and got a salad with it and she shared it with our middle son who also enjoyed it. I got the Berner Lendchen, which is a pork filet wrapped in ham and topped with cheese. It came with a dark sauce and croquettes. This Swabian meal was fantastic! We were too stuffed for dessert. The third time we tried to eat here they were only doing reservations. That was kind of a bummer, but it offered us a chance to try a different place to eat. I might have docked them a star had the meal we did get to try not been amazing. Lastly, we didn't see a allergen menu which unfortunately for us we need since two of our three boys have food allergies.

Luckily, there was a German woman dining there that overheard our struggle and decided to translate for us. However, even after her hard work of translating, we still did not know what to get so we went with her recommendation. She recommended the ravioli with potato side, which is a Swabian staple. This was the first time I had this dish so I did not know what to expect. Man, it tasted gross but I tried to eat it to stay open-paletted and be a true worldly eater. Finally, I had to give up because I started to feel nauseous. The meat was supposed to be beef, my favorite kind of meat, but it tasted like....a type of meat I have never tasted before and never want to taste again. Staying true to my attempt to keep an open-palette, I did try this same ravioli dish again at another restaurant and it was good at the other restaurant. This leads me to believe that there was something deeply wrong with whatever I ate here. I didn't get sick off of the food but what the heck was I eating?
