Spitzhaus - Radebeul

Good Service, friendly, and typical regional menue. You can enjoy The good cuisine and The spectacular view from The top down to The Valley.

A nice place to go and have a vieu out over the "Elbthal", The place is in the middle of the vinegroves. Hope to come back in the summer.

Visible from way down in the valley, this villa-like restaurant was the goal on our hike up the hill and to the Bismarkturm (one of the many tower-like constructions in Germany named after the Iron Chancellor). While a Sunday lunchtime crowd totally filled the indoor restaurant section, we managed to get seats outside in the nice self-service garden area under trees with a fantastic view of the entire Elbe valley. We enjoyed good Zwiebelkuchen, grilled Bratwurst from Thuringia, and the traditional refreshing Federweisser light wine available in late summer all over Germany, a perfect way to end our weekend in Dresden and surroundings.

Beautiful view and delicious food. Good and friendly staff. Worth a visit. A lovely place to spend a summer's evening.

After visiting the winery Schloss Wackerbarth (a "must visit", tram line 4 from Dresden and exit at Schloss Wackerbarth, trying to get Tripadvisor to list it, ) we took back the tram line 4 direction Dresden using our one day tram pass (only 8 euro) and got out at the Zillerstr. stop to walk up to the Spitzhaus. Wow! You need to be in good shape to climb up the hill (see photo) but it is a wonderful climb with on your left side the vineyards. They plant the vines up steep hills creating great wines. If you are not in good shape, take a taxi up to Spitzhaus and walk down the stairs to the main road (Meissen Strasse).Anyway, we were late to make reservations at the Spitzhaus and we got a lousy table, so we opted to go outside to the terrace. They have "self service" there with a very limited menu dominated by sea food. We just got some wine and beer, enjoyed the absolutely gorgeous views and selected Gasthaus Oberschaenke as the place to go have dinner in Radebeul - what a lucky hit! See my review of that restaurant.
