Restaurants in Frankfurt

I'd like to solicit some suggestions on places to eat. I'll be in Frankfurt for three days next Spring. I'll be staying at Hotel Victoria. I'm looking for places where locals dine and would like to avoid the places that cater to the tourist crowd. Andreas has suggested Zur Sonne so that takes care of the first night. I'd like to get two more suggestions. Thanks!

I like the "Paulaner" which is right behind the Dom. Nice German food, but more Bavarian than Frankfurt. There is a nice little restaurant on top of the Klein Markt Halle, but you will have to do lunch there as it closes at 1800. There is also the Friedberger Warte, which is a 600 year old guard tower with a restaurant inside. It has a good recommendation, but havent eaten there myself. My favorite restaurant is also in Bornheim and is called Malepartus. It is almost always voted one of the top "German" restaurants in FF. They use almost all local, seasonal products and produce. Fabulous food for a great price too. I think the average meal runs about 10-12 €.

I will be honest, Frankfurt is chock full of restaurants. Of all kinds and all price range. Not a place to diet!
