Haus Wertheym

Absolutely amazing and beautiful restaurant located in the historical city center with great service and delicious food. The portions are big and the prices are reasonable. Highly recommended to visit and try local specialities.

I LOVED this cute place to dine while walking about the older part of Frankfurt. My husband and I just stumbled upon it around lunchtime, and we were hoping for local cuisine, so this seemed like a decent choice. It was a beautiful day, so we THOUGHT we'd eat outside at one of their tables, but upon entering the restaurant, we were enchanted! I had to get a table in that place! And we didn't have to wait! I could hardly blink for fear of missing something cute hanging from the ceiling or on the wall. Rich woods, lots of signs with quotes written on them in German, artwork EVERYWHERE, painted glass... all were a feast for the eyes! And what a menu! We both decided on the Sweineschitzel and a couple beers. It was all perfect! We sat at a large table against a wall so we could take in everything around us. The other diners seemed like locals, except for two couples who walked in after us. The host (maybe he owned the place) was cheerful and lovely. I hadn't noticed a sign that they only took cash! A minor inconvenience, as there were other ATMs nearby (note that many of these are actually located inside stores/restaurants and not out on the street). We were so thrilled with our choice and I'd take others there on a future Frankfurt layover!

I had lunch here with a friend who spoke German, so I was lucky that I didn't experience any issue with the services mentioned in other reviews. The waiter was attentive and they have an English menu available. The restaurant was quite small, so we had to share a big table with other customers. There were a few tourists here when we visited but I would say 80% of the customers were Germans so the restaurant should be quite authentic. The decor of the restaurant reminded me of the setting in Game of Thrones. It was fun to dine in such a historic building. The food itself was not very impressive though. The taste was rather bland, but I think that was a problem with German food in general. They only accept cash for payment.
