Good sized restaurant with bar and gaming room that also is used for parties. The lemon drop was delicious made with soju, and the food is out of this world.

Beer was awesome. Food was ok, a little bland and boring. It might just not be my kind of food though. Waiting staff was great. I didn’t try the bratwurst though. Planning on going back and giving this place a second chance.

When I stopped by last week it felt like stepping into a mini version of Munich.

Hostess walked with me to the bar. This was a nice personal welcome.

The bartender was Swiss. His German is a little bit different from mine, which is always fun.

I had a beer and a brat. Both were perfect.

The people sitting beside me were friendly strangers. The bar conversation was lively. We chatted about nothing at all and it was perfect.

My previous favorite German bar was The Essen Haus in Madison, WI. Since I'm now 2000 miles away, I think Kathrin's will be my new fave.

10/10. Will be back!

The Octoberfest sampler (sized and priced for 2 people), 1 17oz beer, and 1 large pretzel plus the extra butter, with tax costed $76.45. This is without any tips added in. With 15% tip, it is nearly $90.
I have eaten at many german restaurants in New York and Vegas, so this may not be a fair comparison for anyone that hasn't tried german food anywhere else.
The food was not good for the price. The best part was the pretzel, which they apparently get from a local bakery. Paying an extra 56 cents for butter felt wrong when the pretzel itself was nearly $13. We got the Octoberfest sampler. The 4/5 of the sausages were soft and juicy, which was great. The schnitzel was good but didn't come with any cranberry sauce or gravy, which was odd. The in-house saurkraut was poorly fermented and had no tang to it. The french fries were good. The service was fine as well, nothing to complain about.
The biggest issue I had was the price point. For the price, it absolutely is not worth it. It's priced like Hofbrauhaus without the same quality of food or atmosphere. Hofbrauhaus in Vegas is to die for and well worth the money. This place is more like a pub than a restaurant. I'm glad we tried it because it has so many reviews, but I wouldn't recommend it nor would we ever come back unless they seriously lowered the prices. Also inside smells weird (I think it might be all the old wood + moisture) so we sat outside, which I'd recommend.

This buisness is known the be a great company, I had written a bad review out of misunderstanding on my part of an event which was total ignorance on my part. It was 100% my misunderstanding and fault which has been removed. After I researched how wholesome this company actually is. They deserve nothing but 5 stars as they are an amazing part of the community and only try to share values for everyone. It’s transparent the quality they deliver, look at the years of reputation.

Tasty German food and German beers! Something I'm always hard pressed to find is a place that serves beer in liter mugs, and I was very happy to find out that this place served them!

This is a really great place to go with friends! I've been here more times than I can count and every time is awesome! The owner almost always stops by our table and as a real treat she sang Happy Birthday in German to my friend! Food is authentic and the beer is plentiful! PROST!

First time visit. Went with a group for lunch. Big menu, lots of various choices. The Wife and I split the fish and chips for lunch. A large portion of tasty food. The crust was a bit too crunchy for my liking, but it was tasty. Prices were reasonable, so we'll be back to try their other dishes.
