Hearty German comfort food with house sausages and big platters at fair prices, but service inconsistency and early cutoffs can sour peak-night visits.
Extrawurst delivers reliable German comfort with strong food quality anchored by house-made sausages and generous platters that justify its loyal following. However, inconsistent execution and variable service attentiveness—particularly during peak hours—prevent it from reaching higher territory. Fair pricing and a welcoming atmosphere make it a solid neighborhood choice for beer lovers and casual groups seeking authentic German fare without pretension.
A cozy corner of Retiro that feels like a German pub, with sizzling sausages, clinking steins, and hearty plates built for sharing. Diners praise the house wurst and fries, and one regular said, "the currywurst hit the spot after a long flight." Service warmth varies: some meet the owner and feel welcomed, others report slow response, especially on busy nights or near closing. The cooking skews classic rather than cheffy: currywurst, Nürnberger, schnitzel, and big platters with kraut and potato salad, plus a few local nods like goulash empanadas. Expect straightforward German comfort more than fine-dining finesse, generous portions, and happy-hour deals that make it an easy call for beer lovers and groups. A few items run sweet or heavy for purists, but many travelers find it a taste of home far from Bavaria. Families do fine here thanks to kid-appeal staples like sausages, fries, schnitzel, and burgers. The menu also lists a veggie burger and simple salads. Do note early kitchen cutoffs on holidays and peak-night waits; arrive earlier if you need a quick kid meal, and confirm last-call times when booking.
