For over 40 years this family-owned German Restaurant on the south side of Colorado Springs has served over a million happy customers. The restaurant invites guests to dine in one of its several rooms decorated with artifacts from Europe. With strolling musicians on Friday and Saturday nights, three blazing fireplaces in winter, and an authentic "Biergarten" in summer, you are sure to enter into another world as a guest at Edelweiss.
The authentic menu with a variety of Old World German dishes includes Schnitzel, Bratwurst, and Sauerbraten, with newer-age items such as Flammekuchen and Maultaschen. For those not so adventurous palates Edelweiss offers other Continental fare such as Chicken Cordon Bleu, Filet Tournedos, or Fresh Salmon Filet.

Building History
Report
In 1901 an attractive two room schoolhouse was erected in the Colorado Springs suburb of Ivywild. Thomas McLaren, the architect, was asked to draw up plans for a two room structure that would seat 100 pupils. The building contract, given to Mr. Linn Atkinson, called for the latest innovation "a building that would be ventilated by the Dixon system and that would be heated by a furnace."
Location
Report
We are located about 5 minutes south of downtown between South Tejon and Nevada on Ramona Avenue. Take 115 North and pass over Circle/Lake Ave. At the 3rd stoplight after Circle you will take a left turn, at the Ivywild Drugstore, onto Ramona Avenue. We will be about a half block up on the right. Take Highway 24 or Cimarron East to I-25 and go south.

Our newly remodeled building is the perfect place to hold your next event. We can accommodate groups from 20 to 120 with the patio available in the summer. For groups over 30 we ask that the menu be limited to 4-5 items. We will then print a customized menu for your guests to order from the day of the event.
If you like our restaurant, the greatest compliment you could pay us is to send your family and friends to dine with us. We promise to treat them as you would!
