Wirtshaus Zum Alten Sack in Zittau

Dieses Restaurant kann ich nur empfehlen, sehr gutes Essen, die Bedienung freundlich und aufmerksam. Ein bisschen finster, aber gemütlich.

Bereits zum 2. Mal Spitzenklasse. Vom Ambiente bis zum Service und dem Geschmack der Speisen 5 Sterne plus. Erneut haben wir regionale Köstlichkeiten getestet und waren begeistert. Bis zum nächsten Mal in diesem super Lokal.

Absolut lecker, schnelle und sehr freundliche Bedienung.

Glück gehabt, wir haben die letzten beiden Plätze ohne Wartezeit bekommen. Als guter Tipp: besser mit Reservierung. Uriges tolles Wirtshaus, mit super netten Personal. Speisekarte ist überschaubar, aber mit sehr sehr leckerem Essen, mit Portionen zum satt werden. Sehr empfehlenswert. Immer wieder gerne

Ach Schade...wenn der Koch nicht gerade heute krank war...ja dann weiß ich auch nicht. Leider entsprechen die Bilder nicht den Gerichten die serviert wurden. Handwerklich und Geschmacklich war auch nicht viel los. Die Garnitur kam aus der Konserve, was man direkt schmeckte. Es ist Spargelzeit...es gibt demnach eine Spargelkarte...auch hier Schade..der Spargel war zerkocht und wurde mit Käse überbacken...Salz war an vielen Sachen leider nicht dran. Wirklich Schade..hat viel Potenzial. Der Service tat sein bestes und war bemüht..deswegen die 4* Hoffentlich war der Koch wirklich nur krank heut.

Leute, wenn Ihr in Zittau seid geht in den Alten Sack. Super Service, super Essen, super Ambiente. Wir waren begeistert und werden wiederkommen. Herzliche Grüße aus Wolframs-Eschenbach. ❤️

Es ist halt alles teurer geworden,

Uriges Wirtshaus. Service und Essen sehr gut. Preis/Leistung stimmt auch. Wir werden während unseres gern noch einmal hier einkehren. Mit gutem Gewissen empfehlenswert

Eigentlich müsste es einen Stern mehr geben: Sevice top, Essen sehr geil, Preise fair, Ambiente super, Hunde willkommen und gute Bierauswahl. Jederzeit wieder!

jedes Gericht war für uns ein Volltreffer -- die Küche hat Hohe Qualität abgeliefert Danke für den schönen Abend

Man muß vorbestellen,sonst keine Chance 😉.

Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen und geschmeckt. Reservieren Sie unbedingt.

Waren heuer wieder da und es waren wieder begeistert. Der sehr nette Empfang das ausgezeichnete Essen und das Lokal selber ist so liebevoll eingerichtet. Danke Sehr freundlich empfangen, ausgezeichnet die Küche, das Lokal ist ja wirklich sehenswert. Dank an die besitzter

War sehr lecker , schöne Atmosphäre und sehr nette Mitarbeiter 🤩

Ein gastronomisches "Must Have" für uns in Zittau. Wenn wir diese schöne alte Stadt in der Oberlausitz besuchen, besuchen wir diese Location. Hier ist Herz und Seele der Region im Service und den Speisen zu spüren, zu schmecken und zu genießen. Immer wieder ein Besuch wert.

wir haben zwei tage versucht einen Tisch zubekommen, einmal war abends geschlossen u. einmal waren keine Tische mehr frei...

Wir als Familie mit 8 Personen und Hund waren hier essen. Ich hatte im Vorfeld reserviert und wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen. Die Karte ist gut geschrieben, auch auf oberlausitzer Mundart mit hochdeutscher Übersetzung. Getränke kamen zügig, auch aufs Essen musten wir nicht ewig warten. Das Essen hat allen gut geschmeckt. Unser Kellner war sehr freundlich. Wir fühlten uns wohl.

Volle Sternzahl ohne wenn und aber!!! Hervorzuheben der durchweg aufmerksame und freundliche Service! Ein Ort für perfektes Essen und Wohlfühlen! Vielen Dank und gerne wieder!

Ein sehr schönes, uriges Lokal mit freundlichem und flinkem Personal sowie einer tollen Küche. Für jeden Geschmack dürfte etwas dabei sein. Die Mahlzeiten sind sehr schmackhaft, üppig und reichhaltig. Wir waren total begeistert!

Ambiente 10/10 , Service 10/10 , Essen ebenfalls eine 10/10 . Einfach nur Klasse. Ein Muss wenn man zu Besuch in Zittau ist. Vielen Dank

vielen Dank, wir haben einen sehr schönen Abend hier verbracht. Der Service war sehr gut und aufmerksam, die Speisen reichhaltig und sehr gut. Das Restaurant war gut besucht, von uns eine klare Empfehlung 👍🏻 gerne wieder

Wunderbare Rustikale Gaststätte

Auf der Durchreise zum Mittag angehalten. Sehr gutes Essen und zwölf Punkte für die Bedienung. Sehr nett, aufmerksam und echt flink. 👍

Ein wunderschönes Lokal. Bedienung freundlich, schnell und sehr nett. Essen war wunderbar und lecker.

Absolut zu empfehlen!! Die Kellnerin hat sich sehr große Mühe gegeben, dass alles zur Zufriedenheit ist und alle Sonderwünsche wie selbstverständlich entgegen genommen werden! ☺️ Essen war super, Portionen groß, gern wieder!

Ein urig, klasse gestaltetes Wirtshaus. Gemütlich und einladend. Genauso klasse der Empfang und der Service. Freundlich und zuvorkommend. Ratsam ist eine Reservierung, da dieses tolle Wirtshaus sehr gut besucht ist. Liebhaber von Hausmannskost und einheimischen Speisen der Oberlausitz kommen hier voll auf ihre Kosten. Hier lernt man sogar die einheimische Mundart zu den Gerichten. Und genauso Klasse wie die Lokalität ist, sind die vorgesetzten Speisen der Küche. Aus frischen Zutaten zubereitet und damit richtig schmackhaft. Ich war begeistert und total satt. Hier stimmen Preis-Leistung. Ich komme hier gern wieder.

Schöne, rustikale Gaststätte, preislich etwas gehoben, geschmacklich sehr gut, die Portionen könnten für den Preis etwas größer sein, netter Service, Parkplätze sind rund uns Haus vorhanden

Wunderbare freundliche Atmosphäre, exelente Küche , Preis - Leistung sehr gut, wir kommen wieder Alles Gute 2025

Sehr gemütliches und hundefreundliches Restaurant. Freundliche Bedienung. Leckeres Essen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Sehr leckere Hausmannskost. Netter Familienbetrieb. Für jeden Geldbeutel was dabei.

Sehr schnelle und freundliche Bedienung. Das Essen war oberlecker?

Ich würde das doppelte an Sternen vergeben wenn ich könnte! Eine sehr tolle Gaststätte! Die Bedienung super nett und aufmerksam. Das Essen war meeeeega Lecker! Ein riesiges Lob an alle, macht weiter so. Wir würden hier definitiv wieder her kommen! Hier stimmt wirklich alles.

We haven't been treated so well in a long time as we were at the Alte Sack. We felt truly welcome; the food and the warm atmosphere were top-notch. You rarely find something like that these days.

On my trip to Zittau, which I took with a friend, she suggested we go there again because she had eaten there during her rehabilitation stay, and we did. I have to say I'm rarely easily impressed, but this inn has a special charm, a warmth and coziness, an indescribably wonderful atmosphere that radiates from the place. The service staff was very attentive, friendly, and pleasant, not pushy, but always focused on the guests. The menu is so diverse and varied that it's not easy to choose from the fantastic selection... everything sounds so tempting that you want to try everything. I finally decided on the Zwiebelfleisch (onion meat) and my friend chose the Rinderbraten (roast beef). The portions were so generous and so beautifully presented that the meal became a culinary delight; both were absolutely delicious. The price-performance ratio is also excellent and completes the experience. I will definitely eat there again on my next trip to Zittau.

A wonderful, rustic restaurant with typical Upper Lusatian cuisine! My sole fillet was cooked to perfection – tender and delicate in flavor, accompanied by a wonderfully fresh and aromatic apple and pointed cabbage dish. My partner raved about the hearty mushroom and egg stew – down-to-earth, flavorful, and simply delicious. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service – we'll definitely be back! Since it gets quite busy, it's worth making a reservation beforehand :)

A very friendly welcome, a good and ample selection of food, deliciously prepared! A truly wonderful evening. Many thanks to the waitstaff and chefs :)

A truly lovely and quaint restaurant. Anyone who enjoys home-style cooking will get their money's worth here. The service was also really friendly. We'll be back.

Thanks to the entire fantastic team for the very friendly service and excellent cuisine. The meal was by far the best we've ever had in our lives. 👌👌👌

Everything is home-cooked, the service is very attentive, and the atmosphere is fantastic. Authentic Upper Lusatian delicacies. What more could you want?! Keep it up!

Very good and very friendly service. We were delighted with the food. We'd be happy to come back.

We followed the reviews and were not disappointed. Despite the place being full (two large parties), we were still able to get a table. They warned us it might take an hour, but it was much quicker. Friendly staff and a pleasant atmosphere. The price/performance ratio was good.

Great food, great service! Always happy to come back.

We were there today on a recommendation, and we didn't regret it. We were greeted personally by the chef in a really friendly and authentic manner👍☀️, and were also given a brief insight into the history of the establishment. Great. We got a nice, cozy table. We ordered fried liver and schnitzel with fresh garlic. Everything was delicious, and the service was friendly and attentive. Everything was great... The old fart😎☺️ knows his stuff, and guests are truly welcome here. Thanks for the visit, and we'll be back!!!!!

We ate here today with a larger group. The food was homely, very tasty, reasonably priced, and generously portioned. The process from ordering to payment was quite quick, which is important for a large group with a full day's schedule. The ambiance is a matter of taste, but it fits perfectly with the city and the concept. I really enjoyed it here and will definitely be back.

We tried a regional specialty at this restaurant and were absolutely delighted! It turned out to be both a soup and a main course in one – really filling and full of flavor. We definitely recommend everyone to try it. The atmosphere was very pleasant, and at first, we even had the whole place to ourselves, which was great. Later on, a group of rather loud guests arrived, but it didn’t spoil the overall experience. We truly recommend this restaurant and would be happy to come back.

Very friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. The food is more than plentiful and very tasty.

Attentive and friendly service. Delicious food. Great value for money. Children and dogs are welcome.

Incredibly friendly and helpful staff. The owner himself is always willing to listen to questions and is direct and honest in his answers. A lovely, peaceful ambiance. Delicious food, a great selection of drinks, and a delicious dessert round out every visit. Always a recommendation for a lovely, delicious dinner.

I was very disappointed to be turned away by the service, with the excuse that the kitchen staff was overworked. I've never had anything like that happen in my life. This restaurant is NOT RECOMMENDED.

A beautiful ambiance in the vaulted ceiling. Here you'll find interesting, tasty regional dishes such as Teichlmauke (beef on mashed potatoes with sauerkraut, vegetables, and plenty of broth, which may sound unusual to the uninitiated, but is very tasty). Friendly service, who even spontaneously finds a free table (reservations recommended). Card payments were accepted, including Google Pay (Visa).

We were in Zittau for the first time and ate here. We have nothing to complain about. It's a very cool restaurant with very friendly service. The food was also excellent.

Incredibly friendly staff, no long wait times, and soooo delicious food. If you like German home cooking, this is the place for you. Everything is homemade, of course, and has funny names.

Good food, very friendly and attentive staff. Nice decor, highly recommended!

Very nice local restaurant. Friendly waiter. Good food 🥘

Simply great, if we are in the area again we would love to come back.....

One of the best restaurants, great value for money, fantastic ambiance, and excellent service. Always happy to return...

We had already chosen this restaurant online before our visit to Zittau because of its regional specialties, and we were not disappointed. The food was very good and plentiful, the service very friendly, and we had a pleasant outdoor seating area. The interior was also absolutely quaint. A definite recommendation!

Without a reservation, I would have had to wait 1 to 1.5 hours for a standard meal. But at least they told me that right away,

A very quaint and cozy restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was very friendly. We felt very welcome and comfortable. Best wishes from 16303 Schwedt/O. 🙋🏻‍♂️💁🏻‍♀️

Highly recommended, friendly, very tasty and nice atmosphere!!!

The food was super delicious and the service was prompt and very attentive

Very good Upper Lusatian inn food in a rustic atmosphere.

Unfriendly rejection on an almost empty terrace.

A great restaurant with excellent food and great service. You should definitely reserve a table in advance, otherwise you won't get a seat. Because the food is of outstanding quality, it's also very popular with the locals. There's a wonderful beer garden in front of the restaurant. Parking is available right outside. Depending on the time of day, parking is subject to a fee. This restaurant collaborates with other regional shops, garden centers, butchers, etc. At the end of the menu, you'll find a list of regional producers. We think it's a great idea to support each other like this and to publicize it. We would like to thank Steve very much for the fantastic service. You gave us an unforgettable evening!

Probably an authentic environment, but we don't recommend it without a reservation, the arrogant and unwilling staff will ruin your appetite for eating here.

Very nice, rustic restaurant with very friendly service. The food was also very tasty 😋 I can only recommend it.

Our little trip to Zittau today also took us to this restaurant. We chose it in advance because there are Upper Lusatian specialties on the menu. We like to try local dishes while on vacation. We had free choice of seats. The lady from the service was very attentive and friendly right from the start. We ordered two non-alcoholic drinks as well as Teichlmauke, the national dish of Upper Lusatia (that's what it says on the menu) and Stupperchl with breaded Spaajk onions and Furzwulle. The restaurant has a wonderfully rustic design and lives up to its name. The smell in the room irritated me a little. The toilets are upstairs. This means the restaurant is not barrier-free. The drinks were served quickly. We received the food in a reasonable time. The beef with my Teichlmauke tasted somehow different than when I cook it. I was still very happy with this dish. My husband can usually handle large portions well, but the Stupperchl dish was too big and extensive for him. So I was able to try it out. I also liked it very much and reminded me of a dish from my childhood. We found the prices for these dishes to be absolutely reasonable. But the prices for the non-alcoholic drinks are a disgrace. A large cola (0.4 l) for 5.40 and a small still water (0.25 l) for 3.40 euros don't work at all.

Everything was great. We'd love to come back.

We had lunch here again during our vacation on April 23, 2025 and are still very satisfied. The goulash still tastes excellent. The team is still wonderfully friendly and the prices are also completely acceptable. Gave the child painting supplies again without being asked. We'll definitely stop by again on our next holiday in the region. Addendum from 06/2023 We had lunch here again during our vacation. Everything was great, just like on our first visit 2 years ago. Without being asked, Junior was again given painting supplies to keep him busy. We ate goulash with dumplings again. Wonderfully tasty, very filling and completely acceptable in terms of price. The service was again extremely friendly and available for a quick chat. We will definitely stop by here again when we are in the area. Greetings to the waiter with the Leipzig background. 😉 This review is from 2021: Had a spontaneous lunch here today. Nice and friendly welcome, great atmosphere with a lot of charm. The food was very tasty, the goulash was very tender and the red cabbage still had a good bite. I liked that. Price and performance appropriate. I thought it was nice that the guests who had apparently made reservations were greeted by name. Our child was happy about the art supplies and books. The two boys did a very good job today, we felt very comfortable. I would eat here again. Thank you!

We had a happy girls' evening with good food and friendly service in a cozy atmosphere. The restaurant is busy, so you might want to book in advance.

Yes, definitely, very nice service, good food.

A superbly rustic, quaint ambiance. Delicious food with something for everyone. Prepared with love and very tasty. Very friendly, fast service. More than excellent value for money. 👍

Very tasty, price/performance is also right

Simply beautiful 😊 and delicious 😋 and definitely see you soon 😊

Very nice atmosphere, rustic ambience, great service and very good food. We had dinner last night and were very impressed. Nice reception, please reserve in advance as it is very popular!

Very good quality food and Eibauer beer

Super friendly staff, menu clear and there is something for every taste. Ambiance suitable and comfortable to spend some time here. I'd love to come back.

Thank you very much for the unforgettable evening on the occasion of our small family celebration. The food was very tasty and plentiful. Both the employees and the boss were very accommodating and gave our anniversary person kind words and great attention. We are already looking forward to our next visit in March.

Very beautiful and quaint! Be sure to visit!

Great restaurant in a historic location with a lot of charm. Service and food were very good.

We wanted to have dinner there. "Do you have a reservation?" No, we didn't. We were just about to leave when we were asked to wait a moment and then we were given a table. What can I say, it was great. The service was nice, polite and quick. The food tasted very good. And the rustic atmosphere of the restaurant fits both perfectly. Thank you very much.

Despite the notice at the entrance that all tables were reserved, we luckily got a table for two in the rustic, cozy atmosphere of the restaurant. Friendly and fast service. 👏 The hot, delicious and fresh food was on the table after a really short wait. It was a great end to the day for us on the 2nd Advent. 🕯️🕯️ Many thanks to the entire team, have a nice Advent season. 🎄🎅 K&T

Great restaurant... gladly again

We had lunch today....3 different dishes, everyone was super satisfied! The homemade speculoos ice cream is really excellent, you should try it! Thank you very much Wenk family

Good regional cuisine with perfect service. Highly recommended.

Are thrilled, beautiful and cozy. Very polite and lovely staff. And the food was great for the price and performance.

A year ago we were in this cozy restaurant, where we had a great evening with delicious food and friendly service. Since I couldn't find the dish I enjoyed back then on the menu, I showed an old photo: It was immediately possible for me to prepare everything, even though it was no longer intended. Thank you very much. Here the customer really is king!

Just awesome from the food bs to the service! 6 stars if I could! Only one drawback: no menu in Braille.

A visit that is really worth it, the food was excellent.

I stopped by there unannounced at lunchtime in the middle of the week. I got an extremely tasty schnitzel, fried nice and dark, a bit mixed: just the way I like it. Plus nice and friendly service... So what can I say? Wait, I know: Thank you very much to everyone involved. You are great!

A rustic inn in the Salzhaus in Zittau. Very cozy, rustic furnishings and wonderful food! Very nice staff. Reservation is required. We would be happy to come back and recommend the restaurant. 👍👍👍

Super friendly service Food was great

Very good and tasty local food. Pleasant and cozy atmosphere. Even after 5 years everything is still very tasty. Beer in Boots in particular is a highlight. Unfortunately, reservations have become more than necessary. But it's definitely worth it. Keep it up!

You really feel welcome here. Very attentive and friendly service. Well and the most important thing, namely excellent tasting food, is on top of that. Highly recommended!

The food, the service, the ambience, everything is excellent every time. Every year when we are in Upper Lusatia for a few days, we come to eat here at least once.

Food, service, ambience, everything was great, always happy and highly recommended.

Friendly service and delicious food in a lovely atmosphere. What more could you want...?

Quaint pub, food cheap, drinks too expensive.

Very tasty food, large portions, perfect service and fair prices.

Quaint shop food is really good, just try something out and I can only recommend regional cuisine
