Domkeller

The oldest restaurant in Meissen (opened in 1470). it is great to dine in such a historic setting. Their terrace (open from March to October) offers a fantastic panoramic view of the old town and the Elbe. The restaurant serves traditional Saxon cuisine, delicious wine and fantastic local beer. Excellent coffee. The food (we tried goulash served in bread) was very tasty and beautifully presented. It is worth going either right after the opening of the restaurant (11.30 am) or after lunch (after 1.00 pm), because otherwise there will be no free places on the terrace, or if there are, it will not be the ones with the best view. Fast and professional waiter service. Highly recommended.

We went to this restaurant on Saturday for dinner without making any reservations. We came at around 5pm, and even though many tables had signs that they are reserved for 7pm, we were still seated at one of them. So if you're planning on going for dinner at a later time, it makes a perfect sense to make a reservation. The food was very tasty, but the service was a bit slow. The view from the terrace is spectacular so when the weather is nice, it's better to sit outside.

We are into tasting local dishes wherever we visit. If you are too don't look further, this is the place to go to. Excellent food for fair prices from fine people with great views from both terrasses. Already tried 6 different dishes and they were all 5 out of 5 for us!

A fantastic restaurant offering breathtaking views of Meißen's old town from its terrace. Perfect for lunch with generous portions - they even provide binoculars to admire the historic cityscape in detail! Must-try: their incredible Schweinehaxe (pork knuckle). The combination of great food, amazing views, and unique details makes this a top dining experience in Meißen.

Restaurant with many years of tradition located in a very picturesque place. Very atmospheric and clean place. Service is nice and at a high level. Food is very good, served aesthetically, and the portions are large. Impressions after the visit are very positive. I highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing and incredible restaurant. Food was absolutely incredible and the staff was super nice. Gorgeous view of the city below, daytime or night time. Food was a bit pricy, but well worth it. Highly recommend eating here if your visiting Meißen!

An unforgettable dining experience in the heart of historic Meissen! Visiting Meissen – a city full of charm and centuries-old history – was already a delight, but discovering this gem of a restaurant made it truly unforgettable. Nestled above the banks of the Elbe River, the view alone is worth the visit. Watching the sunset over the water while enjoying a meal here was simply magical. The service was exceptional – warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The staff made us feel right at home and took great care to ensure everything was perfect. The food? Absolutely delicious! Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. And the highlight – Elbsommer beer, brewed exclusively in summer – was the perfect companion to the meal. Refreshing, local, and full of character, just like the town itself. If you’re ever in Meissen, don’t miss the chance to dine here. Great food, fantastic beer, breathtaking views, and impeccable service – a perfect experience from start to finish.

The older staff were very professional and friendly. It was the most tender and flavorful pork knuckle I've ever had in Germany. The beautiful scenery, delicious food, and friendly staff make it memorable.
