Gaumenkitzel Reviews
First time here and really enjoyed it. Tried a lot of dishes and most were hits, a couple misses. Loved the butternut squash apple soup, spatzle with cheese and caramelized onion, and jaegerschnitzel (spelling?). The beef ghoulish was to bell peppery for us and didn't really enjoy the potato salad or fish cake. But loved everything else and will definitely come back!
Come here for the desserts! When I tell you its better than my grandmothers baking, I do not say this lightly ? Pflaumkuchen is sublime, and Grießpudding is lifted by a fresh citrus zest. And now I'm homesick.

Great spot for German fare in Berkeley. The atmosphere is very relaxed, and they sell a good bit of harder to find German food and beer as retail. The homemade Jagerschnitzel and spaetzle are on point, and the beer is excellent. I love their goulash as well. All seems to be made with love. Their breztels are a bit disappointing, however... small and not warm. They also have wierd hours, not open for lunch during the week, opening at 4pm and they close a bit early (8pm)......read full review
