Full disclosure...a friend of mine owns this restaurant but I wouldn't recommend it if it wasn't delicious. The schnitzel with mushroom sauce is a favourite but try the spatzel as well. This is a fairly new spot (the name is now 2 Chefs Schnitzel Bistro). If, you see Patrice there, one of the lovely owners, tell her we sent you!
