Veigel's Kaiserhoff

The inside of the building is gorgeous! Wow—everything is put together beautifully, and I love the atmosphere. Staff was friendly and service was quick. The food was overall alright, but the main dishes weren't my favorite. We ordered the soup of the day, Kaiserhoff's Famous Sauerkraut Balls, Jaeger Schnitzel, and the Kaiserhoff German Sampler. The soup we chose was a cabbage soup. This was one of my favorites: the texture was very pleasing—Cauliflower was soft and varied in size. It was noticeably cauliflower, but in a mild and delicate way, and very creamy. There was also a very unique spice in there, but I couldn't recognize what it was. Maybe nutmeg or caraway? Either way, it was delicious. The Sauerkraut Balls were very good as well! They were crisp on the outside and very soft and creamy on the inside. I liked that there was cheese, but not an overwhelming amount. The Jaeger Schnitzel was okay. I found that it was unpleasantly salty from both the breading and gravy, but that may be a personal preference. The first few bites were good though, and the mushrooms were nicely cooked. The spetzel that came with it was alright too. I appreciate that there is a sampler platter to try multiple things. Potato salad was delicious and I would order this again. It's creamy with potato chunks, and a very unique taste to it. The bratwurst and landjaegar were pretty good—bratwurst had nice flavor to it. I found that the landjaegar was a bit too salty from my preference. Their ribs were tender and sweeter than I expected—it almost reminded me of cha siu ribs, minus some slices. I liked their rye bread, and it was really good with butter and their sauerkraut and red cabbage. I don't think I would eat the two plain, but again, personal preference. Overall, I think this was an alright place. I loved the atmosphere, and that the building was so huge! but I wasn't amazed by it. Some of it, yes, but overall, no. I'd say it's around 3.3–3.6 stars. Last note: the women's sink handle is broken, and will pop off unless pulled straight up. I love the soup though, I really do.

Five star service from Eliza who was spot on in recommendations. We came for schnitzel so schnitzel we ordered. We preferred the pork over the veal. Very good red cabbage, German potato salad, and spaetzel. Gravy did not taste house made. Loved the Ray’s salad!!! We were too stuffed to have dessert. Next time we come we are trying the ribs!
