    Wonderful restaurant. We take my mother here for her annual birthday dinner, and have never been disappointed! Excellent quality German food in a fun, festive environment. The servers always go above and beyond to create a terrific dining experience. And the live entertainment was wonderful, fun, and engaging!

    Edelweiss is a great place to dine for any reason whether its a birthday celebration or just a regular night out. The portions are generous, and the food tastes great, especially the stuffed cabbage rolls and wienerschnitzel! Everyone is very friendly and the service is excellent. We can't wait to go back!

    Had the chicken schnitzel, with mash potato's and spatzle. Very good. Server was wonderful, and the atmosphere transports you to Germany for sure. They had a band playing German music as well ... wonderful Valentines meal. We'll be back ... so many other treats to taste.

    My granddaughter and I enjoyed our dinners. She thought everything was delicious from the liver dumpling soup to the Apple strudel and in between (stuffed cabbage rolls). My Rouladen was tender and delicious also.
