Edelweiss German Restaurant

The food was good. Cute location. It was busy for Valentines day. We had about a 30-40 minute wait. Unfortunately there isn't any space inside to wait so you have to stand outside.

Extremely disappointing food. The roast beef was somehow tough and the gravy did not taste good.

I have been here multiple times and I always leave full and satisfied. I have never left here without having made a new friend. Between the guests and the hosts the experience is always top notch but feels like home.

Absolutely amazing food. Value is incredible. Service perfect. We also bought a whole German Chocolate Cake to take for our families Christmas dinner….it was the highlight of the entire meal. Thank you so much for having such a unique and unforgettable experience.

January 9, 2026 - If you’re hungry, stop & enjoy fine German cuisine at Edelweiss !

Chef Ingrid Moore’s roots traced back to her family in a war torn Germany. She immigrated to the U.S. , started up her restaurant in 1981. Glad she shares her cooking expertise here in the Staunton area! 😃👍

My wife and I returning from Natural Bridge, noticed this restaurant on our way home. Our friends spoke highly of this restaurant, so we all returned for dinner.

Our server Patricia seated us in a packed dining room. (Only groups of 10 or more are allowed reservations) We looked over the menus, as the 2 accordion players sang along! We asked for a couple of minutes.

Patricia returned for our drink choices. I love German beer! There’ a good selection of Lager beers , bottom yeast fermented beers. . . . ( Ales are top fermented beers ) Pilsners, Dunkels, Weizen are all good German styles of beer! 🍺

Cute restaurant, Christmas decorations still up . . . A festive ambience at Edelweiss ! 😃 Patricia returns with our drinks and we place our meal orders. Two of us ordered Rahmschnitzel . . . thin sliced pork medallions sautéed in mushrooms & sour cream sauce ! Yummy ! 👍👍
I ordered Jagerschnitzel . . . Sliced pork fillets breaded & pan fried, topped onion gravy, mashed potatoes on the side, with side garden salad.
The last order , Rindsrouladen . . . Thinly slice beef, stuffed w/ mix of beef, herbs, pickles, carrots, bacon, and spices. All entrees receive small sides of red cabbage, Bavarian green cabbage, green beans, and Spatzle ( German noodles) .

A wonderful evening at Edelweiss, thank you 🙏 Chef Ingrid! We all loved your delicious meals , don’t know how we had room for your homemade desserts? Oh . . . my wife & I shared a slice of Black Forrest Cake ! Our friends shared an Apple Crumb Cake !
So delicious, we shall return !

I noticed two plaques on the wall, written in German . . . and asked AI to translate :

1. A joyful heart and peaceful home are what make life happy! 😃

2. Good wine and good company are the best ways to pass the time! 😃

Our favorite restaurant in Colorado Springs. We lived in Germany for 9 years, and Edelweiss is as authentic German as you can get here in the US. It’s like being back at the local gasthaus.

OMG. Killer.
Big portions, real food. Get some of that custard pie. None of this lame pie nonsense, crunchy apple slices and the crust will slap your momma. Good beer selection, I had to do some googling, but was super happy with the one I got.
