I expected the pork shank to be tender but it was kind of chewy.

This place knows how to make a reuben sandwich. Stuffed cabbage was incredible with the purple cabbage as well. Highly recommend!

We had mixed reviews of the experience here. Portions were reasonable, except maybe the side spaetzal which was okay, but $8 for equivalent to a small cup of soup. The only other positive taste stand outs were the German potato salad and liver and onions. Schnitzel was too heavily breaded. Brats and pretzels were just okay. I enjoyed the creaminess of sauerkraut, but the rest of my party did not. Service was just sufficient

I had a delicious Ruben. The only reason I didn't give the food 5 stars is there are no chicken options.

Some of the food was quite bland, some overcooked, and some quite delicious. Service was good, restaurant was not busy. Food was a little overpriced.

I have never been here, but looking at the menu, the owner and chef have never been to Bavaria, where the best food in Germany lies.
It’s a missed opportunity at best and I give them 1 star, your menu is atrocious

Delicious food. Excellent service. There were nine of us including three kids and we had a small alcove where we could keep some of our own noise away from others. Will be going there again!

Always a fun place to meet up for dinner or a beer

My 4th time here tonight, so decided to leave a review. I've been eating here with a monthly group, and the staff accommodates us all so well, never a mixup. Waitresses are always nice and helpful. Drinks arrive super fast, and food isn't far behind. Love the local hard cider, and I've overall been pleased with my dinners and the price. The schnitzel was a bit small for the price, but all the homemade things are very good. The atmosphere is classic German, so people looking for a Hofbraühaus atmosphere might look elsewhere. This has the feel of being in Germany, Switzerland or Austria, in a town with a beer restaurant. Great art and accents!

We went on a thursday night and were happy they had their own parking lot, the building was old but had character I suppose. Our server was very friendly and extremely helpful with my girlfriend's gluten allergy, as well as provided us with some great gluten free places around the area. The veal and sausage sampler were both incredible! If you're looking for good German food, I'd recommend you come here! I would also recommend the owner of the building do a little bit of upkeep.
