    Had the pork knuckle there. It says 1.2kg weight on the menu. It was one of the best pork knuckle I have had. The skin was cooked perfectly and it was so crunchy. The meat inside was so delicious. The whole thing was probably too much for one person unless you are very very hungry and and you are a big eater. I would definitely come back and eat that again!!

    Nice restaurant with genuinely German food. The Sünner Kölsch had a strange metallic taste. Very typical dining experience for this part of Germany.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful carnival mood (2020). Quite different than before. There I go again ;-) Dressing room was - as always - a problem. In the end things are on the floor. (Original) Schöne Karnevalsstimmung (2020). Ganz anders als früher. Da gehe ich wieder hin ;-) Gaderobe war - wie immer - ein Problem. Am Ende liegen die Sachen am Boden.

    (Translated by Google) We were in the beer donkey dinner one night and more than regretted it. The 5 of us sat at a small table next to the toilet, where the door kept opening and closing. A fat wedding party was running next door in a room without a door, which had turned the music up to the stop. We were sitting in front of this room, so it was extremely loud! We could not sit at another table and when asked by the waiter came only a condescending: "The wedding guests have booked this ..." Food does not taste at all, it is cold and mostly from the package, poorly prepared. The Kölsch supply was terrible, our first Kölsch came after 30 minutes. The staff weren't exactly friendly either. We can't get here anymore. (Original) Wir waren einen Abend im Bieresel Essen und haben es mehr als bereut. Wir saßen zu 5 an einem kleinen Tisch neben der Toilette, wo ständig die Tür auf und zu ging. Nebenan in einem Raum ohne Tür lief eine fette Hochzeitsparty, die die Musik bis zum Anschlag aufgedreht hatte. Wir saßen vor diesem Raum, folglich war es extrem laut! An einen anderen Tisch konnten wir uns nicht setzen und auf Nachfrage beim Kellner kam nur ein herablassendes: "Die Hochzeitsgäste haben das gebucht..." Essen schmeckt überhaupt nicht, es ist kalt und überwiegend aus der Packung, dazu schlecht zubereitet. Die Kölsch Versorgung war fürchterlich, erst nach 30 Minuten kam unser erstes Kölsch. Auch das Personal ist nicht gerade freundlich gewesen. Hier kommen wir nicht mehr hin.

    (Translated by Google) Attention, this is no longer the venerable, well-known restaurant in the heart of Cologne on Ehrenstr. After the change of owner, arrogance is the order of the day. Now for the third time in a row. Especially the waiter M ..... o is a prime example of dubiousness. Occurrence on 09/29/20 at around 6 p.m. We ordered two beef soups which were tasty. Unfortunately for the "waiter" there was not enough turnover. We felt this through ignorance. Multiple requests for an invoice were ignored. Only the tip of a guest from the next table caused him to throw the receipt on our table as he passed. He also considered it a matter of course to round up the amount to the 20 EUR note in front of him ....... of course without saying thank you. My wife had two euros in her hand as thanks for the service ....... (Original) Achtung, dies ist nicht mehr das ehrwürdige, seriös bekannte Restaurant im Herzen von Köln auf der Ehrenstr. Nach dem Wechsel des Inhabers, ist Arroganz in jeglicher Hinsicht angesagt. Nun zum dritten Mal in Folge. Besonders der Kellner M.....o ist ein Musterbeispiel an Unseriösheit. Begebenheit am 29.09.20 gegen 18 Uhr. Wir bestellten zwei Rindfleischsuppen die schmackhaft waren. Dem "Herr Ober"war es leider zu wenig Umsatz. Dies bekamen wir zu spüren durch Ignoranz. Vielfache Bitten für eine Rechnung wurden nicht beachtet. Erst der Hinweis eines Gastes vom Nebentisch veranlassten Ihn die Quittung im Vorbeigehen auf unseren Tisch zu Schmeißen. Er hielt es auch für Selbstverständlich den Betrag auf den vor Ihm liegenden 20 EUR Schein selbst aufzurunden....... natürlich ohne Danke zu sagen. Meine Frau hatte zwei € als Dank der Dienstleistung in der Hand.......

    An truly authentic German culinary experience. The schnitzel was ok the sausages we're better. The place had a good atmosphere and a very German vibe. The prices are low and you get plenty for it. Unfortunately you can't pay by card here, which is very inconvenient for tourists like myself.

    My German husband has been craving asparagus for months! We found this German restaurant that had all the right things on the menu. I had a simple Viennese schnitzel which was great. I'm never able to finish an entire schnitzel...too big! The salad was good too.

  • 5/5 Nimesh S. 4 months ago on Google • 164 reviews
    Cool German atmosphere! BEST food. Best Schnitzel I’ve had, it came with a mushroom sauce!!! Best French fries I’ve ever had too somehow. They were perfectly crispy without being soggy. PERFECTLY seasoned. Not overdone the way American restaurants might lean towards. Unreal Currywurst. So soft & smooth & flavourful!

    A local place for local German favorites. It didn’t disappoint, the kolsche dishes and beer were amazing.

  • 1/5 Madalina G. 4 months ago on Google • 69 reviews
    Food: amazing!!! BUT they forgot about our starters and we ordered “pork fried bites” which turned out to be tartare by some miracle - a shame aa the main dishes (see pictures) were absolutely amazing. Oh, yeah and we ordered meatballs as well that those ones we didn’t get at all Service: people are nice and they speak english, but they are super busy and it takes a while for things to get to your table - if you have 2-3 hours for dinner, all good then

  • 5/5 Maria F. 1 year ago on Google • 22 reviews
    Charming german restaurant with super friendly and efficient service. We were a big group and it was one of the only restaurant which accepted a reservation for 17 p. They even spoke fluent italian and decorated a table for the birthday celebration. We will def. come back! Thank you!

    Food, service, atmosphere, everything was great! They serve beer in the traditional Kölnisch way... Stange glass every time the glass is almost empty they bring a new one in an Infinitiv refill until you put the deckel on top of your stange to signal you no longer want refills.

    Went here for dinner for our first night in Cologne. Highly reccomend! Service was very welcoming and we were made to feel at home. The server gave us plenty of reccomendations for good popular in Cologne. Before we ordered mains he reccomended we try the Mettbrötchen which is a traditional German dish comprised of raw pork on bread, sometimes topped with onions or something else. I've never had raw meat before... And would never usually order it.. But I was pleasantly surprised with the dish and it was fun to try something new; I was glad he reccomended it. Mains were great; highly recommend the mussels! At the end of the meal some staff helped us out with reccomendations of where to visit in Cologne. Check this place out..! Amazing friendly service, and very good food for a good price.

    Bier Esel is a traditional German restaurant. The food here is delicious and the location is in the heart of the shopping area from Koln. It is with mentioning they have a considerable selection of mussels from which you can choose besides the meat selection. Give it a try if you are in Koln.

    A very German themed restaurant. Had Jäger Schnitzel and my order came in less than 10mins. Fast service and pleasant staff. Clean restrooms as well.

    Nice Place to have a Kölsch Bier. Maybe the only Brewery in Cologne where you can also have very good and fresh eating. Nice Waiter.

    The Schweinshaxe was crispy and delicious and plentiful. So was the Jägerschnitzel. Fine atmosphere and the Server was a delight. Next time on Köln we will repeat for sure.

    Amazing food and service, they had a live singer who was really good and really created a good atmosphere! I had the black pudding which was really tasty and friends had schnitzels which I also had food envy from! Would highly recommend

    The pork knuckle here was truly memorable not only because it was tasty, but also because it was massive! As much as I enjoyed it, I am not sure I would have one all by myself again - maybe share one, and order something else ;-)

    One of our favorite places for traditional German fare in Cologne! All their meals are very delicious- tried the haxen, schnitzel, bratwurst several times - always perfect! Service is great and friendly. Next time we will try their mussels in the pot - seems to be very popular!

    Good ambience and service. However good is *extremely* salty. Please, don’t put that much of salt.

    Great place to have a beer on the terrace. I would recommend to try the pork knuckle as a dish, I really enjoyed it. The kellner was polite and attentive.

    Brilliant experience! All the staff were so kind. They accommodated us even though we didn't have a reservation. The place was full and the atmosphere was lovely. Everyone spoke excellent English and there are menus in English. The food was perfect and the beer really enhanced the experience. I would recommend anyone looking for an amazing big plate of German food to stop in here.

    First visit, and it was as expected: a welcoming german atmosphere, excellent food, and the service was very good! We didn't have a reservation, just walked in from the Weihnachtsmarkt. The place was every kind of busy and yet we were seated within a few minutes. I will definitely be back here :)

    Fun atmosphere with superb staff and very tasty food. We saw the pork knuckle but decided against the 1.2kg monster.

    Good sausage, mussels and beer! Tons of options for mussels. Some of the best I’ve ever had. Plump, juicy and melt in your mouth.
