Our server, Randy, made the dinner experience exceptional. Attentive and friendly throughout. Tuna tartare was good enough to make the trip back for alone. Grouper was great, sauce made the dish. Wines were perfect and dessert was delicious. Atmosphere is always a nice treat, modern and interesting to watch clientele. Really like the that owners and partner make to rounds to add a personal note. Maybe just a tad cool on a hot day, but better than being outside.

Being from New Orleans, we would include Steinhaus Keller as one of the best restaurants and certainly THE best German food we’ve eaten, comparable to some of the best restaurants in New Orleans. The value and quality of Steinhaus Keller is excellent. The live music was outstanding.
