Edelweiss German

Honestly, the food was better a decade ago. Then, apparently it was sold to someone new or new management took over, because the food quality dropped and they began offering very odd selections...like spaghetti. But even so the German food was mediocre. Little Germany is a much better place with superior food and a nice atmosphere. Edelweiss was a lot of fun but the only thing it had going for it in the end was the atmosphere. Everything else had declined.

Best German food and atmosphere in town. Walking in feels like a traditional Bavarian restaurant in Germany. We do all of our birthdays here and every time it is special. I hope it reopens soon!Kid-friendliness: They have a dance floor that kids love!

Quaint Bavarian style decorated restaurant with a good selection of German beer and a few German wines.Sadly the place is dark and dimly lit. It could also use a good cleaning and some new paint.The food was good, but was only limited to a small selection of German cusine items and steaks. Spatzle was great, but the schnitzel was slightly tough to chew. It wasn't tenderized by pounding it to a thin piece of meat that is typical to schnitzel. It had good flavor, just hard to chew.Slightly over-priced for the medicore quality of food. I believe the Edelweiss Restaurant has such great potential and a desire to succeed.

I was served wine in a very dirty glass with fingerprints and lipstick on it. It also had a fruit fly in it. Husband was given the wrong beer. We were charged for side salads that we didn 't order. A child brought it out for us so we assumed it came with the meal. We waited a very long and were nervous about how long it take to get our food. We asked for the check because we wanted to leave due to bad service and unsanitary glass. The lady was very passive aggressive and said oh you 're food is ready but it 's fine. She lied to us.. Our food was not ready.

It 's the Denny 's of German food. Nothing was great. Very little to complain about.We rolled up for an early dinner at 4:30 PM with the little one in tow. Initial impressions from the empty derelict parking lot abandoned shopping center were immediate red flags. Walking in the door there was a certain stank that usually indicates I 've found a good dive bar so I was somewhat hopeful. Staff was super friendly and attentive so 5 5 marks there. We ordered two pretzels, potato pancakes to start. Nothing special but also not bad. Two of three beers ordered were on draft, only one was out. Those on tap were cold and fresh. Prost.Salad and bread were unremarkable. I ordered the sampler platter and wife had the chicken schnitzel. The only standout bad item in the platter was the potato salad. In no way did it resemble any form of German potato salad I 've had at home, seen in a recipe, or had at other German restaurants. There was an overpowering presence of mustard. Shrug. Kraut was the sweet brown style, not my favorite but pretty decent for the style. Spaetzle was a little over cooked but otherwise passable. Sausage was good, jagerschnitzel sauce again good. Portions were middling.Apple strudel tasted like a McDonalds apple pie (not a complement) and the black forest cake was stale.The entire experience left me feeling like this was a super cool place to eat, 20 years ago but is resting on their history and ambience instead of execution. Atmosphere was a little flat even when the place started to fill at 5-6PM. If you just wanna satisfy a hankering for German good and some good cold beer this place will get this job done but you don 't have to look hard to find better executed German food. I 'm probably being a little harsh but have high standards for German when it comes so highly recommended.
