First visit to Edelweiss, unfortunately the evening ended on a sour note. The vegetable of the day, per the waitress, was Brussel Sprouts. Order was placed to include sprouts. Dinner arrived and the sprouts were black on most, actually burnt. Requested a new order. Waitress did so and came back to tell me she was told that is how the sprouts are cooked. Requested a manager and ERIC, a chef appeared (couldn't get a last name as waitress said no one employed there knows last names). ERIC was very arrogant and condescending.

We went to have Schweinehaxe/Eisbein/pork shank. While the price for the 2-3lbs menu item was $7 higher than it is advertised on the website, the food was marvelous and worth it.

We always have a wonderful experience at Edelweiss. My mother grew up enjoying German-Hungarian dishes, which brings back fond memories of her family and childhood. My brothers and I inherited her love for this cuisine, and now our children have grown to appreciate it as well. While there used to be many great German restaurants in the Chicago area, most have sadly closed down. We are so grateful that Edelweiss is still around.
We came here on 8/19 and it was the best meal I've had in a long time. Our waiter was the best that I've had in years. The accordion/ singer was AMAZING. My 2 year old got to hit a couple of keys on it and we all had a blast. We keep talking about what a great time that we had. And the food was amazing!
