Himmel Haus is a German restaurant that offers delicious food and a wide selection of German beers. The restaurant has a cozy and inviting atmosphere, with warm service from the hostess, bartender, and waitstaff. The beer menu is extensive, featuring options like super pils and doppelbock, along with cocktails, cider, and wine. The staff is friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming environment. The menu includes classic German dishes such as pork schnitzel, pork shank (schweinshaxe), and pork roast, all of which are highly recommended. The pork shank could use a bit more flavor, but it pairs well with mashed potatoes and red cabbage. The mashed potatoes can also be substituted with fries for the pork schnitzel.
A great starter is the pretzel with onion-bacon jam, which is large and perfect for sharing. The beet salad is refreshing and nicely flavored with mint. For dessert, the apple streudel with whipped cream and ice cream is a must-try, offering warm, comforting sweetness to finish the meal. The gravy served with the pork roast is a highlight, with its perfectly seasoned and wonderful texture. The cauliflower appetizer is creamy and flavorful, and both carrot cake and black forest cake are popular choices for desserts.
The restaurant features a full bar and outdoor patio area with some games, making it family-friendly. Prices are reasonable, and portions are generous, with meals often costing around $50 per person. The atmosphere can be lively and loud at times, especially when busy, and parking may be limited, so arriving early or being prepared to wait is advisable. Despite that, the warm environment and friendly staff make it a great place to enjoy a German meal and beer. Overall, Himmel Haus is a cozy, welcoming spot for German food, drinks, and good service, highly recommended for a memorable dining experience.
