Fischkueche Nuetzel - Erlangen

I´ve known the place since the eighties. If you want to have carp in Erlangen, this is where you go. Carp is regarded a minor fish in many places, but here you may discovere this is not justified. Carp have been bred in the area since the Middle Ages and Franconians do know a trick or two to make that musty taste disappear. After the harvesting the carp are kept in fresh water. The Season goes roughtly from September to April and the restaurant is open only during the Carp season. The restaurant itself is charming. An outside sitting area is available. The owner is concerned about ones well beeing and the staff in the kitchen are most efficient. After I moved away from Erlangen, I have not visited often, but my offsping independently re-discovered the Restaurant and last night we had a remarkable meal there. The prices are truly adequate. This is the place where I will eat the next carp, too.

What a great place with 155 years in the same Family and same location. Only open durung the Carp season as this is the speciality of the house. A must do visit for fish lovers and very reasonably priced.

First visit even though I've lived in this area for 18 years, my group all had carp which was delicious something different to experience. Service was friendly. Don't expect super fast service as they are BUSY, but its a lovely relaxed atmosphere inside, and something to be enjoyed.

This place has been there for decades and they manage to keep up superb quality day in, day out. The restaurant is old and could need some renovation, but this is really secondary. Combine the Karpfen with a good franconian wine and you 'll feel you 're in heaven! I have oredered it blau (cooked) and gebacken (baked). Most people like ti baked, I prefer it cooked, both are fabulous! Beware, they only open from September through April.

Had a wonderful forell with horseradish creme and mash. And beer of course. Very nice place with good athmosphere.
