Came here in the afternoon for some coffee and cake. Have always heard that evening meal service is great. However I wouldn't recommend to stop by the outside area just for some coffee and snacks. Service was next to non existent until I actually approached someone that we'd like to order. Without knowning that we'd only order something small.... Just on this merit I wouldn't come back. And yes the food/drinks we had was alright but just nothing special.

Great place to bring foreign customers to share some of the German spirit at a "classical" German dinner. The local mood will take the guests to a few centuries back in the time. Additionally, the very professional and dedicated staff will help a lot on that! I strongly recommend it.

Fabulous atmosphere. Felt compromised when man at table behind us sneezed several times not covering his sneezes. Obviously doesn't know protocol of today's safety. Food excellent but big enough to share not to waste food! Service excellent. Great dinner

great location, nice service and amazing decor that gives an authentic atmosphere. food was good but I’d expect excellent for the price

(Translated by Google) A must!! (Original) Ein Muss!!

A great place with awsome German dishes, waiters in traditional dress and a lot of fun for children and adults

The pig was great, very well prepared. Dark beer was also tasty, not heavy and easy to drink. Service was friendly and the ambiance of the restaurant is awesome. Wish I spoke the language so I could know what they sang about! A must visit while in Dresden.

Very dog friendly. There is even a separate menu for the four legged guests. We sat in a carousel to eat. Kids loved it. Live music and friendly service.

Good traditional restaurant in the heart of Dresden. Food was delicious and offers a lot of variety. Moderate selection of beers. Service is quick and friendly.

Sauerbraten was delicious, waiters polite and friendly. Cozy seatings in the outdoor square, however the interiors are magnificent

(Translated by Google) Intimate restaurant in the basement close to the Dresden Zwinger. Historical interiors and employees in national clothes immerse you in the 18th century era. And of course delicious and hearty Saxon cuisine with many local beers. Russian speaking waiter. Very cool! (Original) Душевный ресторан в подвальном помещении, недалеко от Дрезденского Цвингера. Исторические интерьеры и сотрудники в национальных одеждах, погружают Вас в эпоху 18 века. И конечно вкусная и сытная саксонская кухня с множеством сортов местного пива. Русскоязычный официант. Очень круто!

The underground warehouse where wine was stored in the castle long time ago is converted into a restaurant. I ordered and shared various foods with the staff and the atmosphere is really good. The service is excellent and the staff dressed in medieval clothes walk around and create the fantastic atmosphere. You can't make phone calls in the under ground and you can connect to Wi-Fi which will prepared by restaurant.

This is one of the most unique and beautiful restaurant I have ever been to! A must-go. Medieval decoration in every corner, live music, everything is nice. Very special place

Fantastic Old German beer house style dining area in basement with live music. Food was very good and beer was great.

Great food and bear. Only the skin of the pork is a little burned. My friend said her boneless dark is delicious!

Great for the experience, place looks a little like a museum of sorts, it's large and has plenty of elements of decor celebrating Sachsen culture The restaurant is quite pricey but on par with the city center and the ambience and service are excellent The food I had was some traditional stuff, to my taste it made no sense but this is quite the feature of German food. I did appreciate they had one liter pints of beer and the brand I've had, a Lager I think, was absolutely delicious Definitely visiting while in the city

You not only have nice colleagues here, but also a super great boss who takes care of everything and if you have problems with one of the shoes, she is there immediately. Thank you for letting me experience this ... (Original) Sophienkeller ist ein super schönes Restaurant. Das Essen ist super lecker und es gibt immer wieder neue Kreationen.

(Translated by Google) Cozy, authentic restaurant with down-to-earth dishes from the region and very friendly service. No longer to visit for us in Corona times. The waitresses walk around in a confined space without a face mask and are very close to the customer. Appeal your right as a waitress not to have to ... Well, are probably immune to Corona ... 🙄 (Original) Gemütlicher authentisches Lokal mit bodenständigen Gerichten der Region und sehr freundlicher Bedienung. In Corona Zeiten für uns nicht mehr zu besuchen. Die Bedienungen laufen auf engem Raum ohne Mundschutz herum und sind sehr nah am Kunden. Berufen sich auf ihr Recht als Bedienung das nicht zu müssen... Na ja, sind wohl immun gegen Corona...🙄

(Original) Wir waren gestern zum Abendessen dort. Wir wurden bestens platziert,bestens unterhalten und haben sehr gut gegessen und getrunken. Wir empfehlen den Sophienkeller gerne weiter.

Food is okay (but nothing crazy), prices are quite expensive and service is quite slow but very friendly. The inside of the restaurant is very nice and with lots of space.

The most historically spectacular restaurant I've been to. Special theme, high quality food, professional service, reasonable price,and great location. All makes it a perfect place for eating out. You'll feel like a real king!

Really good. Recommended.

Arrived at 1350. The first food showed up at 1432. Waiting for 40min for over cooked meat wasn't pleasant memory

Following a recommendation from a colleague and using a friend's visit and wish to see Dresden as an excuse, we made a reservation for 3 pm today. We arrived a tad early but it was no issue and we were seated in a manner of minutes. The service was very friendly and quick, the home baked bread with butter for starters was delicious, the main courses took a while to arrive but boy were they good (and made to order)! Will definitely visit again! Also, the whole design of the place is rustic and fun and the first thing you see when entering is staff making dough which filled the air with a nice scent!

Great restaurant in town. Service was fast and great food was very good. Awsome interior.

This restaurant was by far the best among all other restaurants I had a dinner in during my 2-week vacation in Nuremberg, Dresden, Prague & Vienna. It is very traditional, has amazing atmosphere, very friendly staff, tasty food, everything is more than perfect. Should not be missed whenever visiting Dresden.

The atmosphere is very nice but the service is under the expectations for such known restaurant. The waiter didn't show respect and was not friendly at all. If we were not invited to the restaurant, I would leave the restaurant directly..

Very nice place. Gorgeous, medieval style atmosphere, nice and finny personnel, and proper traditional German food and drinks. Absolutely recommended if you aŕe in Dresden. The service was a bit slow, but the place was quite crowded, and it's recommended to reserve a table in advance.

The moment I entered the restaurant I was amazed by the decoration. There are plenty of medieval decoration in the restaurant. (Bomb style candle, table with instrument of torture, swords…and even carousel) Food on average and I’m happy with it. However, I do feel racist dining in there. I cannot speak German, but have been living in Europe for couple of years, and also been to German so many times, so ain’t fragile. I can feel the waiter is so much happier when they talk to other ppl, and how impatient when he is with us (even when we are only try to order food)

The best medieval experience ever done! Perfect for every occasion! Dogs are accepted and very very but very well-treated!! In fact we returned for dinner as well! The dog’s menus are cheap and enrich the family’s experience!

One of my favorite restaurant in Dresden. Very nice ambience with traditional old time decoration. Some evenings here are solo concert by local singer. Traditionally dressed waitress serve you. Food is good. Traditional Saxony meal.

Great Coffee with the best Apple strudel Came here for a cup of coffee and ended up ordering an apple strudel. Probably the most delicious strudel I have had. Smooth and creamy without being too sweet just added to the taste. The coffee is good but paled in comparison to the strudel. Also tried the hot chocolate and it tasted great. A must visit if you are in Dresden

I went there due to the numerous good reviews. The interior is interesting but the food is very far from my taste. Maybe I didn't choose well. Anyway, stay away from the suckling pig.

(Translated by Google) Highly Recommended. You immerse yourself in another time. Perfect, everything as it is. (Original) Absolut empfehlenswert. Man taucht ein, in eine andere Zeit. Perfekt, alles so wie es ist.

Alles in allem: Einfach gut!

The driest knuckle I've ever seen world wide, half of it even got roasted too long and become a pile of wood impossible to chew. As you can see from the picture it's literally skinless wooden knuckle. Weissen is standard, nothing peculiar to mention.

Great Christmas duck and decorations, overly salty potato soup. Charging 2.80€ for 200ml of tea and then refusing to refill with hot water is not okay though. They should provide a pot of hot water with it otherwise this feels like a rip-off.

Perfect atmosphere, good food, taste beer, fast service. Recommend all

The food and the ambience ensure a unique experience. If you are lucky you will even get a little song from the musician.

WOW!! This place is amazing! I sat outside and had an absolutely delicious and wonderful meal, then I went inside to use the restroom and holy cow! It's amazing in there! Room after room of medieval glory!

(Translated by Google) Although the food is plentiful and the ambience unusual, I was personally disappointed. The fact that caraway seeds in sauerkraut should be a spice and not an ingredient is probably very subjective, but very unfriendly service, which also gives incorrect advice, prevents a better rating - even if your colleague was able to improve the rating in the end. (Original) Obwohl das Essen an sich reichhaltig ist und das Ambiente ungewöhnlich, bin ich persönlich enttäuscht gewesen. Das Kümmel im Sauerkraut ein Gewürz und keine Zutat sein sollte, ist wahrscheinlich sehr subjektiv, aber eine sehr unfreundliche Bedienung, die zudem falsch berät verhindert eine bessere Bewertung - auch wenn Ihr Kollege am Ende noch die Bewertung verbessern konnte.

(Translated by Google) The Sophienkeller is great and definitely worth a visit. For our children, the carousel table is always the absolute highlight, where you dangle in free-floating chain seats and turn with the table. For us it's a chat with August the Strong. He has a lot of interesting things to tell and always adds to the amusement. The secret of the Cosel tear is also revealed here. The food is excellent, the service friendly. And there are secrets to be discovered in every corner. Talking mirrors, tables with miraculous instruments of torture. Let yourself be surprised. (Original) Der Sophienkeller ist grossartig und auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert. Für unsere Kinder ist der Karusselltisch immer das absolute Highlight, wo man in frei schwebenden Kettensitzen baumelt und sich mit dem Tisch mit dreht. Für uns ist es ein Plausch mit August dem Starken. Er hat sehr viele interessante Dinge zu erzählen und trägt immer zur Belustigung bei. Auch das Geheimnis um die Coselträne wird hier gelüftet. Das Essen ist hervorragend, die Bedienung freundlich. Und in jeder Ecke gibt es irgendwo Geheimnisse zu entdecken. Sprechende Spiegel, Tische mit wundersamen Folterinstrumenten. Lasst euch überraschen.

friendly service

The food was one of the best i had during my stay in Germany. The restaurant is located at a restored cellar, with a medieval character (staff also dressed in medieval cloths). I have to say the food was delicious, we all ordered something different and we enjoyed every dish. The service was friendly and prompt.
