The menu has a lot of different things but I like the German items, or at least the German influenced ones. Everything is hot and yummy! They have a good variety of appetizers also. They have TV's if you want to watch what ever game is on too!I'm going to update my review since my past few visits have not been as great, I know covid had a major impact here HOWEVER last time I was there I was by myself and I heard my waitress complaining to her coworker about one lady came in by herself (who was waiting for someone) and then I'm there alone etc, loud enough for me to hear just a few feet away. Staff, if you work for tips don't complain in front of your tables, it's going to hurt you. I was going to get something to go and a gift card but I just ate my food, left an adequate tip (15 instead of my normal 20 percent) and have not been in a hurry to return. It's not like I was taking up a table when it was super busy. Next time I'll order at the bar and get it to go to avoid nasty comments.Update Dec 2022 I ate at the bar and it was ok, they are supposed to close at the end of the month and that's too bad. It seems like they have downsized the menu and don't have everything available at the bar, but certainly enough to keep most people happy. I see a lot of people coming in to greet each other and say goodbye which is sad, but hopefully the next place will be inviting. Hopefully the staff will learn to keep mean comments to themselves and treat everyone the same, I don't care if you know this guy or that group, please take my order. Good luck.
This place went way down hill since they announced the closing absolutely terrible and I've never complained about their food or service you still love eating here!
Food very good,I had fish,batter nice and crispy,not to noisy so you could have a conversation,very reasonable priced.Nothing fancy,but would go back.
Feels dirty and beat up. Ok for a quick beer. Never know when they’ll be open or not either which is a pain. Avoid food.. nothing I’ve tried is good
We come quite often and it’s always a pleasure when we visitWe’ve tried quite a few things on the menu but we still love the wings and fishI definitely miss the old waitress but the new ones are just as awesome.. I hope they keep up the good work seeing as they survived the pandemic
Great local place! My husband and I have been in several times and keep going back because of the affordable prices and good food. The roasted turkey reuben is delicious. We enjoy the bar where there is a pool table, dart board, and TouchTunes jukebox. They also have a large dining room - great for families!
Kretzler's feels like walking into an old Irish pub, you don't get too many of those nowadays. The place is unfortunately slowly dying out but the food, ambience and aesthetic are all decent. If you like a more European feel to your bar/restaurant or just want a decent dining experience it'll get the job done. *Beware a feeling of emptiness
Went to an after funeral lunch. The service and food were good. We all had the opportunity to celebrate our beloved cousin. Thank you. ❤️
This used to be one of our favorites places, but it sure has gone down hill. Terrible food anymore. I don't think we will be back there.
Excellent food and service! Drinks were perfect! Price affordable! Great atmosphere!

Just had my parent's 50th anniversary surprise party there yesterday. They were so accomodating! The food was excellent! Many people complimented the food. The service was also excellent.
Atmosphere is good, there is a dining area and a bar area with a pool table. We ate at the bar area. The food arrived quickly and was really good. We ordered fish and chicken strips with fires and a Reubens with tutorials tots. It was really good.
The food was delicious, and the customer service was " ok", I felt some of the waitresses we're unprofessional. But overall I will be going back. I get the feeling they don't get "people of color" as usual customers.
Kretzlers has great food. I had chicken tacos which was a special and it was delicious. The staff are very friendly. They have a pool table and dart game. Such a nice place. I highly recommend. They have specials every day
Kretzlers has recently made some nice changes inside. However, there are openings between the restaurant and the bar. The bar allows music to be played LOUD. The music is harder rock like ACDC, alternative rock etc.... the average restaurant customer is above 60 years old - so we had 70+ year olds trying to have a nice conversation and a nice meal while listening to a blaring version of ACDC's Highway to Hell. I'd rather have walls and a door leading to the bar that kept the music on it's own side.
