"While frankfurter may be an increasingly dusty term for the hot dog, it reminds us of the dog’s origin in Germany’s Frankfurt — along with its cousins, the Bavarian bratwurst and Austrian wiener. St. Johns’s Urban German Wursthaus grounds its franks in their Mitteleuropean roots. The interior decor is just on the right side of Bavarian hunting lodge kitsch, but the eye-popping views of the St. Johns Bridge are are a feast for the eyes. Urban German Wursthaus offers a range of German and more local brews, as well as vegan options of some of their favorite dishes. Dine inside or on the spacious patio." - Nathan Williams
