We had the best experience at Great Heart! Definitely recommend a reservation but if you’re flexible you may be accommodated at the bar. The staff were all amazing, we tried several beers and all were delicious, and I just can’t say enough about the food. It tasted like great-grandma’s kitchen. Nice ambiance and music too. 10/10

Great place. Had the opportunity to learn about the owners story and how much they care about providing their customers with German traditional beer and food. You will not be disappointed. If you get the chance to have a chat with the owners, you will see how much it means to them to offer customers with a great experience.

Food here is great; best German I have had in STL outside of Germany. Owners are German and very kind and hospitable. Must get a reservation ahead of time. I will be back.

Beautiful restaurant, great service. Beer was excellent. We went for lunch and got chips and pretzels as apps and they were amazing. Schnitzel was perfect and paired great with the potato salad and cheese spatzel.

It's a great brewery with my only con being that it's usually pretty loud from people having a great time

Both the food and beer were so good! The Kaesespaetzle was so hearty and delicious. We finished our meal with the Apfelstrudel and it was the perfect way to round out our meal. Can’t wait to come back and try the whole menu.

Party of 4 enjoyed quick seating and attentive service around 4:30 pm 10/19/25. Beautiful new building with logo wear in entryway, large seating area on first floor inclusive of bar and huge, attractive copper storage vessel which held beer. Two large screen tv’s were located one on each end of the bar for sports viewing as desired. !
Mostly couples, at least 3 families with children were present and well-behaved. A large party of ten was seated as we were leaving. What sounded like German marches in the mood of Oktoberfest were played in the background, which I found entertaining, but another member of my party did not. There was upper level and “Biergarten” which we did not explore. Others in my party ordered satisfying, high protein, high fiber mussels in a tomato sauce with a side salad. A cook herself who is health-conscious, she loved the taste and the healthy option. Others in my party ate a 8 piece shrimp cocktail followed by slowly braised, extremely tender beef goulash and spaetzle with buttery sauce and the fourth member had extremely tender chicken schnitzel and Bavarian style potato salad with a pleasant tang to it. Two ordered pleasantly rich ice cream, one espresso, another vanilla. Two ordered beer, one Weiss, another Helles. We all laughed and talked and enjoyed the service of our waiter, host, hostess and bartender in this lovely facility. Adding this to our list of haunts
Fantastic food, great brewery. This place is a keeper!

I am from Germany so I was very excited to try this place… What can I say? I am obsessed. From the second I walked in I knew it was going to be amazing. It smells like Germany, and in the best way possible. I love that they use top of the line ingredients and no seed oils. It is honestly the best restaurant I’ve been to in, I think ever.

Authentic German atmosphere. Food was tasty & flavorful. However took a while for us to get our meals as it was quite busy & several customers ordered about the same time.
