"Nice ordfashioned place. We had today's lunch (turkey) which was very tasty. Such a large place with so many tables should have more waiters than those few working that day, though. We had to wait a little too long to be really content."

Historic surroundings, Beautiful paintings, stained glass, wood board ceiling, even suits of armor, this restaurant has it all. This is a great place to lunch after you've seen City Hall which is connected to it. I don't know how old it is but it's Tudor style interior harkens back to an older Germany. I was drawn in after peaking through its windows which are original hand blown glass.It looks expensive but I just wanted to go in and enjoy this place. I could have sat there all day. It is traditional German. So traditional that they don't have an English menu. So, The only thing I recognized was Schnitzel. It was a light schnitzel covered in a home made creamy mushroom sauce.The french fries looked standard but had a flavor not common in frozen restaurant fries so they must have been organic potatoes. Of course I had a beer and which brought my check to $19.80 with tax. A bargain for a restaurant so extravagantly decorated. Service was prompt but not rushed and the waiter was friendly but not pushy. I spent most of my time investigating the decor in each room and taking photos.This was not a meal -it was a visual experience.I wish they had such beautiful places in America that are this affordable.This is more than a restaurant, it is a must see tourist attraction.

The best part about Ratskeller Kiel in the sleepy capital of Schleswig-Holstein: this restaurant is open until 10 pm. Yes, it's true. While most other places will be closed (except McDonalds) you will get a decent meal here. There are North German specialities such as Sauerfleisch and fried potatoes (cold jellified pork in mayo-like sauce) and Matjes (pickled herring in yogurt dressing). And butter pan-fried sole fish. Also regular items like schnitzel, turkey medallions and fries if North German food is not your liking.

Served so much food we could still be eating left overs.Nice outside ambiance, waiter had a great sense of humor trying to serve two very silly Americans, us.Was recommended to me and I am so pleased we tried this spot. Next visit to Kiel I will eat there again.

Was really looking for a good German meal and the hotel recommended this place. Located an easy walk from all over town, I was impressed by the traditional interior. The group of old men “regulars” playing cards was a nice touch. We had a great...More
