the wolseley is a beautiful dining space with high ceilings and decor that reminds me a lot of many new york dining halls. it's open late and all day and is hard to beat for a late dinner.
chopped liver (7/10) - the chopped liver here is generously portioned. the presentation of the dish is as bare bones as you'll ever see. some would find fault here, but the liver is tasty and i can understand the whole putting lipstick on a pig argument. it is after all, chopped liver.
matjes herrings with pumpernicekl (6/10) - the herrings are of good quality as is the bread. again a very bare bones starter in all respects, but flavors that i think work quite well.
holstein schnitzel (7/10) - expertly fried schnitzel. the bread crumb and the veal are one throughout your journey of this generously portioned schnitzel. on the side, mustard and anchovies to add salt and spice.
choucroute à l’alsacienne (7/10) absolutely massive portion of various meat products piled onto a pool of sauerkraut. i'd have to say the sausage was my favorite.
if you're after a simple meal, this place does simple well. the staff is attentive and friendly, thefoodis consistently good and priced at a point where i wouldn't consider it good value, but at the same time not unreasonable by any means.
