Like I'm at a house in Germany having a home-cooked meal. Outstanding!

We were a party of 7 to celebrate a 68th wedding anniversary. The owners are very friendly and gracious and fun to talk to. The food was outstanding - we were stationed in Germany and are always looking for a good German restaurant with authentic food. We finally found it! Everyone enjoyed their meal, especially the rouladen, schnitzels, & wurst platters. The borscht and the cream of onion soups were delicious. Highly recommend!

Been trying to call multiple times for reservations and do not get any answer.
Great food and a great dinning experience! Loaded with antiques all around you and upstairs. The host's were very friendly and entertaining. The building has a rich history going back to the 1870's and with a story about the Devil's Swamp behind the building. I loved this place and the food. Call for reservations as seating is limited.

Had a uniquely lovely dinner here this weekend with another couple - we’ve been trying to get here to experience genuine German cooking and we were delighted. The Kassler Rippchen was perfectly prepared and we all enjoyed our entrees. The plus was the enormously generous personalities of our hosts - I could feel the German hospitality was well placed here. Reservations are expected so book in advance. Will definitely cone back again!

The entire evening was incredible. The authentic German food reminded me of grandma’s. The owners are welcoming and make you feel at home. Not to mention 2 floors of antique gems. I’m sorry we didn’t discover this sooner but certainly will be back.
Very good German food. BBQ available in season too. Service is good. For better or worse kind of like eating at someone's home as you will have interactions with the chef(owner) and the waiter/BBQgrillmaster (owner). Very friendly. A little slow, so make sure you have plenty of time (at least 90 minutes). Capacity is only 25(?) so definitely call ahead. An added touch to this restaurant is that it is also an antique shop with lots and lots of stuff on every wall and any nook and cranny available. Don't miss the upstairs. Did I mention lots of stuff? Some of it is even pretty cool.
Incredible food and incredible owners. We can’t wait to go back!
Unbelievable gem! Don’t be in a hurry/ Eclectic building of antiques with open kitchen and authentic German food/drinks and antique chess set- one of the owners friends plays with you while you wait for food. We only counted 3 tables, which is why reservations are highly recommended. First/ they brought out soft pretzel and sweet breads- crazy good! Then We had the sausage sampler of wursts- (see pic) all tasty, tender, and delish on a bed of sauerkraut. For dinner, I had Chicken Paprishka w potato dumplings- crazy great textures and flavor. Husband had beef stroganoff and spaetzl noodles- mix in your own sour cream. So much food- you can definitely share! Highly recommend if you enjoy homemade German food in a unique setting.
I popped in before food service began so I can’t review a meal, but the antiques and Knick knacks were worth stopping in for. The owner welcomed us in to chat and look around. Will definitely make a reservation for a meal next time.
