Editorial Review for Schmidt's Restaurant und Sausage Haus – by Citysearch Editor

The Scene
Since 1886, Schmidt's has served millions of brats to millions of people, likely helping Columbus retain its image as one of America's fattest cities. But with food this good, who's thinking about image? Now a tourist attraction, the service can be off-and-on, but the food's almost always on.The Food
Along with the traditional bratwurst, which is a delicacy in itself, there's the famed Bahama Mama; a spicier link now carried in groceries everywhere, it's best paired with sides like German potato salad and homemade chunky applesauce. Also on the menu are traditional German spreads like chicken spaetzel and Wiener schnitzel, and enormous cream puff pastries drizzled with chocolate. You'll find some local microbrews on draught, as well as German favorites like Paulaner, Spaten, and Warsteiner.
