Kailyn the server was very nice.
The restaurant has been under the same ownership since the 1960s the paintings are original and have been here for 100+ years

Underwhelming experience perhaps because we had higher expectations before coming here. Food were extremely bland. You literally had to douse schnitzel, pancakes and pork shank in whatever sauces they gave you and they were still very mildly flavored. The only great item was one of the sausages on the platter which consists of beef. Cocktails were watered down and weird tasting. Service was slow and the place wasn't packed. And it was quite boisterous due to October fest. What's up with minimum 20% tipping on their handheld card reader nowadays?? Just ridiculous

Traditional German food served cheerfully by an attentive staff, many selections of draft beer with seasonal choices. We had an enjoyable evening.

This is the best authentic German restaurant I could ask for! The pork shank was perfectly done: tender on the inside with a deliciously crispy outside. It’s a huge portion, easily sharable between 2–3 people. The potato pancakes were out of this world. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and full of rich potato flavor. Highly recommend!

We visited Heidelberg numerous times and have always been very satisfied. We noticed subtle changes to the recipes just recently- unfortunately not to the better.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Heidelberg Restaurant benefits from its easy-to-find location. I shut my eyes as the food dissolved, wanting that taste to stay. Employees here anticipate needs before asked. I plan to have a meal at this place.

I celebrated my birthday here the other night. This is a great little unsuspecting place. The inside has a great vibe and the little Biergarten out back is pretty cute. The food was fantastic. I had a roasted pork shank with sauerkraut, red cabbage, and spätzle. The crispy skin on the pork was phenomenal and it was wonderful having homemade spätzle. I would definitely recommend this place. The food is authentic and the quality is superior.

Cozy German Spot with Great Food, Since 1936. Charming old-school German restaurant with a rustic lodge vibe and staff in traditional attire. The German sausages with regular mustard and sweet mustard, potato salad, two types of sauerkraut, and Jägerschnitzel with Spätzle were all excellent. Great German beer selection too. Only downsides: weak AC on a hot day and the water glasses had a slight eggy smell. Otherwise, a solid experience overall.

We used to go that German restaurant but today I understand that Definitely NOT KID-FRIENDLY . I stopped by with my two babies. Little one was sleeping in the stroller, older one was hungry. I asked to sit one of outside table for quick lunch for hungry my baby. The waiter keep telling me that they can’t take stroller even if for outside table. He said I should keep sleeping baby in the stroller outside their area. Unbelievable. No body was sitting at that moment outside tables. Such a shame.
