Took my mother here - the food was incredible, we will be back and we're bringing along more family. It was not busy at all for a Sunday evening, but we had to wait a very long time to be served multiple times. We weren't in a hurry, but it was rather disappointing. But like I said, it's not stopping us from returning!!

I had two beers and an entree. Food is great service was really good specifically for being an Octoberfest. So they were pretty busy but they kept up with everything. Good music for the evening made it feel like I was a part of something overseas. The only downside is the parking situation. They do have a parking lot around the back of the building, not too hard to get into but it is tighter parking than one would want, as well as the amount of panhandlers or people asking for something that are out on the street. Not that that's anything against the business, Black Forest Inn can't do anything about that, just if you are wanting a peaceful evening, that can jar some people when random strangers come up asking for money.

I love this place. The bartenders are very friendly and they have unique German beers that you don’t see elsewhere that taste like liquid gold. I’m excited to try more dishes.

I absolutely love their Spaetzel.. Their casseroles are good because they mostly use Spaetzel. Whoever makes the handmade sodas is so talented, the Cherry Lime? is the best flavor. I've tried all of them. Sauerbraten is Ok. Focus on the Spaetzel. Really authentic German restaurant, lots of character, you'll talk to some nice people and have a great time. Destination restaurant.

This building looks tired and I'll maintained. The air vents above my head hadn't been cleaned in years. The food was adequate, but not worth the trip into the city. Our waitress was nice enough though.
Beautiful stained glass everywhere, it really has the old pub vibe. Food was delicious and there ar plenty of German beers to try.

The water they brought to the table tasted like chemicals--either a very dirty glass or something else. I asked for a club soda so I wouldn't have to drink the chemical water. The club soda was flat. I ordered the goulash. It was cold and NOT goulash. The one bite I took tasted like it was out of a can. My wife ordered a lentil dish and it looked like cat food. It was 'slimy'?? Our monosyllabic waitress couldn't have cared less that our food was basically untouched when we asked for the bill. I paid for the 'meal' anyway. I think this place is lingering on because of its status as a sentimental favorite. Nice decor however. Too bad about the slop they're slinging.

Heard about this place and decided to give ot a try. My wife and I were stationed in Germany a while ago and we were looking for some authentic German food in the area. The Schweinhaxen (Pork Shank) was cooked perfectly. Our server was excellent and the food was delicious. It was a nice day so we sat out on the patio.
