Having a brewery, beer garden and a ballroom, Ball und Brauhaus Watzke is a triple threat. Led by chef Rene Rodzinka, the restaurant is happy to serve its guests delicious dishes and drinks.

Rodizio - the unique "all you can eat" in Dresden. Expierence how our Cortadores (modern Gauchos) slice different meat, from lamb, turkey, pork, brazilian sausage, chicken or beef, again and again on to your plate. Also includet are salad, dip's, baguette and sides like potatoes and different kinds of vegetables. A special thing is the grilled pineapple at the end. very delicious. Rodizio - "all you can eat" is always from Monday - Saturday starting from 17:00 o'clock.

If you prefer a classic steak you are also more than welcome. Additional to that we also offer dry aged Steaks, which are aged for 3 weeks in our aging fridge. An absolutly amazing steak, which we also offer is an irish Tomahawk. Perfect if you look for something special.

Also you find good drinks and a Cocktail Happy Hour from Monday to Saturday from 16-17 o'clock & 21-22 o'clock.

Very friendly staff, the menu offer is great, food is good, drinks are fine too. the ambience is very lively and sometimes it is hard to understand eachother indoor over the table as the sound bounces around the room - especially if you are seating next to a bigger group
