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.

It's been here for the past 20 years, they have their own beer, a pilsener and a dark one. The food is pretty diverse and usually yummy. You can get anything from pasta, salads, traditional east German dishes, some met dishes. They also offer brats and cake. Many vegetarian options. Bring cash as they don't accept cards. The outdoor area is pretty big and there's always kids running around as they have a small playground.

The weisswurst was very tasty and came two in an order and served in a tasty broth with small veggies. It also came with a pretzel which is a great deal for 7€. The beer was tasty as well. The meatloaf is very dense and cut like a thick ham slice. On the salty side, this was well balanced with the sour cabbage and potatoes. We also ordered a side of beer sauce which is similar to a gravy and goes with meat dishes, not an accompaniment to the pretzels. The sauce tasted strongly of dark beer. Service was wonderful and we were checked on often by our server. Menus have English translations and it was nice to see a good mix of both Germans and foreigners here. Overall a great dining experience.

WIFI is available for guests. Ask the staff for the password. Day 1 - We arrived here on foot after the Hansel and Gretel opera. No reservation was required and they seated us promptly. We sat at a nice table with a tablecloth and candle. They lit our candle and it was very romantic. Food: got the German 2 white sausages with pretzel and sweet German mustard. It was a good price at roughly 8 euros. I asked for a side of sauerkraut and the waiter said of course. When I got the bill the sauerkraut was 5 euros. The pretzel arrived early and it was delicious and I dipped it into my sweet mustard. The white sausages arrived later in a bowl of boiling hot water. I just picked it out and placed it on my plate and then threw the other sausage back into the boiling water to keep it warm. The white sausage is a very little taste with specks of green running through it. It is a "light" gentle sausage. The sauerkraut was delicious! The dish needed a veggie and I am glad that I ordered it. The gentle sausage with the cabbage and tang and sweetness played perfectly together. Beer: They had 4 beers on tap. I got the large dunkel (dark beer) and it was delicious and earthly. Cleanliness: average
