This restaurant is tourist central with many , many better options in Frankfurt. >>>>>>>THEY ONLY ACCEPT CASH>>>>>BE FOREWARNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please understand that this restaurant looks like the real deal from the outside but the reality is that a large percentage of it's clients are tourists. Unfortunately , this translates to sub-standard service and cuisine.
The location is perfect---close to the river and near the heart of Frankfurt.
Restrooms available.
Handicap possible.
Final take---not my favorite by a long shot.

Had a fabulous apple strudel, whent back for more, and was disappointed. It tasted like frozen and a severe letdown from a previous experience
This restaurant is working only for tourists, because no one would ever go second time there. Absolutely horrible food. It was for the first time in my life that I had a bite only and couldn’t eat more.
Remember you can only pay cash there.
However I have to say there are super friendly staff. And the atmosphere itself is beautiful.

Historic quaint restaurant with authentic local cuisine. Although it was booked out, we were kindly given a table at a very busy dinner time. Very interesting quotes or sayings to keep you occupied during your wait for the food. The food was good tho not great. The pork knuckle was a bit dry and overdone.
This establishment does not accept credit cards and there is no visible signage indicating that they only accept cash. As a result, after dinner, we had to search for an ATM machine in the vicinity which was quite inconvenient since we had only arrived on our first day. This experience was unpleasant, and I recommend avoiding this place, the service was not friendly either.
The closest experience to the fifteenth century, I had. Impressive artwork with medieval values. "The cross is not so heavy if the woman is not mean", "If you can digest our food, you are healthy", Half truth, means 3/4 lie".
I had lunch here with a friend who spoke German, so I was lucky that I didn't experience any issue with the services mentioned in other reviews. The waiter was attentive and they have an English menu available. The restaurant was quite small, so we had to share a big table with other customers. There were a few tourists here when we visited but I would say 80% of the customers were Germans so the restaurant should be quite authentic. The decor of the restaurant reminded me of the setting in Game of Thrones. It was fun to dine in such a historic building. The food itself was not very impressive though. The taste was rather bland, but I think that was a problem with German food in general. They only accept cash for payment.
I LOVED this cute place to dine while walking about the older part of Frankfurt. My husband and I just stumbled upon it around lunchtime, and we were hoping for local cuisine, so this seemed like a decent choice. It was a beautiful day, so we THOUGHT we'd eat outside at one of their tables, but upon entering the restaurant, we were enchanted! I had to get a table in that place! And we didn't have to wait! I could hardly blink for fear of missing something cute hanging from the ceiling or on the wall. Rich woods, lots of signs with quotes written on them in German, artwork EVERYWHERE, painted glass... all were a feast for the eyes!
And what a menu! We both decided on the Sweineschitzel and a couple beers. It was all perfect! We sat at a large table against a wall so we could take in everything around us. The other diners seemed like locals, except for two couples who walked in after us. The host (maybe he owned the place) was cheerful and lovely. I hadn't noticed a sign that they only took cash! A minor inconvenience, as there were other ATMs nearby (note that many of these are actually located inside stores/restaurants and not out on the street).
We were so thrilled with our choice and I'd take others there on a future Frankfurt layover!

Bring some cash ~
The waiter was super helpful. And suggested a traditional style local beer (Kulmbacker) and the food was amazing.
I know many give a lower rating due to the fact they accept cash only. But it adds to the traditional style. Remember to bring cash and come enjoy the food and drinks

Had a delicious "schnitzel with green sauce" here, as well as an apple strudel. I would have given them five stars, but the waiter or kitchen staff forgot about my strudel after 30 minutes of waiting... Oops! Otherwise everything was great!
Lovely exterior and location, but so-so food. The mixed platter looked promising with a fairly large portion for 2, but landed quite flat on the taste; we couldn't finish it in the end. The outdoor seating was quite pleasant, as it gives you some view of the old town.
