Absolutely delicious! Congrats to Chef Mairinger for this Austrian-German gem of a restaurant. It was our 2nd visit with a slightly changed menu this time. My wife had the German veal schnitzel with mushroom sauce with Spätzle and the cucumber salad. I had the sausage sampler with Sauerkraut. We started with the Pretzel Basket. The spreads alone were outstanding. For dessert we got a box with a selection of cookies. I think these were a Christmas special?! Anyhow. We devoured them at home, and they were equally good. The place is a bit on the pricier side, but worth every penny!

It is with a heavy heart that we bid our favorite "go-to" farewell. I have been going to Eveleigh since it took over from Kenneth Cole. I brought my now-wife there for one of our earliest dates, and we have been going there on the regular ever since. Great job, Eveleigh. We will miss you terribly.
