The pretzels are made by hand by an Army vet who learned to make pretzels in Germany after his service. The sauces are made from scratch. Our cocktail program features both popular and obscure German spirits. The wine program consists of small-production family-owned wineries in Germany and Austria. Beer offerings include a healthy diet of imported German beers and local breweries who make German-style brews.

Incredible food and drinks only outdone by the stellar service. Everything is done with intention, from the olives to start down to the tea selection for dessert. Our favorite meal in Baltimore so far and we will be coming back! Could not recommend more.

The food was outstanding and even though several in my group had not been to The Ratheskeller before, they were already planning when to go back so they could try other things, too.
