Reviews for The Rathskeller in Indianapolis, IN
I came here for a wedding. Beautiful facility and the staff did an absolutely fantastic job. The food was tremendous as well.... The stuffed mushrooms were out of this world, the German potato salad was amazing, and the Wurst was fantastic; really,everything was great. Read more
I consider myself a connoisseur of all things German and this is bar none the best place for German food and culture it's ever... been my pleasure to visit ... it's cultural center so it's a bigger building than you would expect. The food itself isoutstanding and authentic and the beer is pure Deutsch. I've spent enough time in Germany and I felt right around home there Read more
We came for the live music and drinks. Our first time. They have some good German Bier on tap. Nice, casual atmosphere. The... historical building is impressive. Great location to enjoy outdoor music. Read more
Amazing german restaurant!!! Mushroom allergy people: many many dishes here have mushrooms. The schnitzel is amazing. Potato... pancakes are wonderful and flavorful. I had the best Riesling I’ve ever had here. The service is good and it’s in abasement. All the best restaurants are in basements lol. We didn’t have to wait bc we had a reservation at six. Read more
This is a decent restaurant with good service and ambience. But there are very few vegetarian options. The bread was served... cold. The Pasta and Salad were decent. Our server was very good and knowledgeable though. Read more
We had a fabulous dinner for a business meeting. I honestly cannot think of anything negative about this place. My favorite... dish was the Hot Wurst plate is huge, with a ton of variety. Warning - do not take a large slab of mustard, you will get aninstant sinus drain. Ask me how I know. It was painfully pleasurable. Honestly I could have just ordered the Hot Wurst with acouple German beers and be done with it. But nooooo, I cannot go to a German place without partaking in some Schnitzel. Weordered family style, Jaeger Schnitzel and Schnitzel Cordon Bleu. The Jaeger was excellent, brown mushroom gravy on point. Ireally did not like the Cordon Bleu, just lacking flavor and to dry for my taste. Also, you have to get the hot bacon saladdressing, holy moly this is good stuff……I would have like to try the French Onion, next time. Service was outstandingA++++++. We will be back. Read more
I'm always on the lookout for a German restaurant that my hubby would enjoy, and this place lived up to the expectations for... sure! Large menu, huge portions, and a generous bread bowl to start. The staff was attentive and friendly, and the food tastedamazing! Save room for the delicious cake if you can! Couldn't have asked for more ?? Read more
We checked online before going to the restaurant to see if there were tables available. Which turned out there were options for... reservations at anytime. We were coming on a Thursday evening at 4:15 pm so we figured why bother making a reservation. When wearrived the restaurant was empty, as expected considering the time. The host asked if we had reservations which we didn't. Hethen proceeded to tell us that there were no tables available because they had reserved tables and we could sit at the bar area.That seemed skeptical but we went along. Once seated at the bar area we checked online again and there were still tablesavailable all evening. We could have booked online and gone immediately to the host and tell him we now have a reservation. Butwe were already seated and didn't want to bother moving. During the approximately hour that we were there, only one table hadbeen taken in the restaurant area. I would have given a one star for service but our server at the table did a good job. We'vebeen here several times in the past and the services had been pretty good, until now. Not sure why the host didn't want ussitting in the restaurant area but the atmosphere and experience is just not quite the same at the bar. We were a bitdisappointed with the overall experience, not what we came to this restaurant for. Read more
