The 10 best traditional restaurants in Stuttgart
The wine list may be modest, but the cuisine is considered one of the most honest in the city. Fine gnocchi and genuine Schäufele are complemented by Thai soup and coq au vin and are often served in the garden.
One of the oldest buildings in the city (built in 1564) has been revived after years of stagnation. On two floors, between walls and half-timbering, there is Urschwäbisches with a modern twist. Good selection of wines from Württemberg.
Andreas Scherle also runs the gourmet restaurant Zur Weinsteige, where he maintains one of the best wine cellars. In the cosy ambience, there are hearty vespers, but also dry-aged Zwiebelrostbraten. Tasting counter with more than 600 selections, beautiful outdoor area.
A good mood is already anchored in the name and the authentic furnishings alone instantly put guests in a good mood. The homemade Maultaschen are also served in the pretty inner courtyard.
Even with a new young tenant, everything in the institution should remain as it has always been, i.e. for 120 years. However, the fixtures and fittings between the crooked walls have been freshened up a little, otherwise: Swabian specialties such as Maultaschen with potato salad, sour kidneys or roast onions are a must in a convivial atmosphere.
While cultivating tradition with wine tavern vespers and Alblinsen, the noble and rustic ambience is open to international specialities such as aged sardines or pulpo with wild broccoli.
In the oldest house in town (built in 1463), tradition is upheld despite the change of generations. The handwritten menu features classics such as Maultaschen, Fleischküchle and Rostbraten, and regional wines served in Viertele-handled glasses.
Nearly 200 years of tradition in three rooms, one above the other, where people sit together. Meatballs, brisket and roast beef are served. The wines are served in Viertele glasses, including Trollinger, of course.
