    Deutsche Übersetzung unten:…read more I am an American from Texas and was visiting the Schwelm area to attend the wedding of some dear friends. I saw this place and almost broke out laughing. The American theme of the restaurant was anything but subtle. I insisted that my German friends bring me here for dinner. I had a wonderful time. It is always fun seeing what America means to people in other countries. I expected the food to be very bad, but I found the hamburgers were totally legit. The only difference from American burgers was that they had tons of sauce drowning them, and the seasoning of the meat was a little different. I thought the fries were really good as well. The decorations inside were hilarious. I am a police officer, and I loved the statue of the highway patrol trooper. It was also neat that a customer arrived in a classic American muscle car (Chevrolet Chavelle) while we were there. However, I noticed that a lot of the customers were what we would call "douche bags" in America... Our waitress was very friendly, and the food came out fast. I love Germany, but it was neat getting a taste of home during my visit. I would recommend this place for anyone, but I think Americans will really enjoy it. Bin ein Amerikaner aus Texas und besuchte das Schwelm Gebiet, um die Hochzeit von einigen lieben Freunden zu besuchen. Ich habe diesen Ort gesehen und fast lachend ausgelöscht. Das amerikanische Thema des Restaurants war alles andere als subtil. Ich habe darauf bestanden, dass meine deutschen Freunde mich hier zum Abendessen bringen. Ich hatte eine wundervolle Zeit. Es ist immer lustig zu sehen, was Amerika für Menschen in anderen Ländern bedeutet. Ich erwartete das Essen sehr schlecht, aber ich fand die Hamburger total legitim. Der einzige Unterschied von den amerikanischen Burger war, dass sie Tonnen Sauce hatten, die sie ertränkten, und das Würzen des Fleisches war ein wenig anders. Ich dachte, die Pommes waren auch sehr gut. Die Dekorationen im Inneren waren urkomisch. Ich bin ein Polizeibeamter, und ich liebte die Statue der Autobahn Patrouille Trooper. Es war auch ordentlich, dass ein Kunde in einem klassischen amerikanischen Muskelauto (Chevrolet Chavelle) ankam, während wir dort waren. Allerdings habe ich festgestellt, dass viele der Kunden waren, was wir "douche Taschen" in Amerika nennen würden ... Unsere Kellnerin war sehr freundlich und das Essen kam schnell heraus. Ich liebe Deutschland, aber es war ordentlich, einen Vorgeschmack auf Zuhause während meines Besuchs zu bekommen. Ich würde dieses Hotel jedem empfehlen, aber ich denke, Amerikaner werden es wirklich genießen.

    This is a really cool place to visit. Like a real American Diner but somewhere you wouldn't…read moreexpect it. The place is usually packed. Especially in the summer it's almost impossible to find a parking spot or a place to sit. People park their cars a few hundred metres down the road. The place is popular amongst bikers and sports fans come here to watch soccer games on the screen. Smoking is prohibited in the main restaurant but there's an indoor patio with long tables and benches where you can smoke. Kinda like a beer garden. In the summer you can sit on the huge outdoor patio, too. They have a typical American menu with heaps of burgers, pizzas, meats and salads to choose from. You'll also find typical pub food like onion rings and mozzarella sticks on the menu. The food is amazing!!! I have only tried their vegetarian food but comin here often I can speak for my meat-loving friends too. It's so good I'd actually kill for one of their veggie burgers right now. It's hard to find places that sell veggie burgers at all. The only reason I dont come here as often as I'd like to are the prices. Burger prices range between €4.95 (Hamburger) and €12.95 (Burn Out Burger Giant XXXL). The price is for the burger only. No side or salad. Dips cost extra. So if u get potato wedges for example u pay an extra €1.45 just for a little bowl of sour cream. That's the price for most dips (Garlic Sauce, BBQ Sauce etc.). There's a few cheaper ones for either €0.45 or €0.95. BUT if all you need is ketchup then you'll be happy to hear that there's complimentary ketchup bottles on the tables at least. Pizzas (24cm) cost about €7. The finger food is rather expensive. Drinks aren't that cheap either. Still it's definitely a place worth goin to! So if you're in the area or you wanna take your bike for a ride come check it out. You won't regret it!

    Nice place American style, very spacious and apparently very loved by the locals who have a blast…read morein the summer in the open tables outside, as commented by the person who brought a colleague and I there. You will find all the Americana you want, but I was more focused in finding something in the menu that was not a giant burger. I choose the fish salad and seemed to be the German version of the fish and chips. I love the fried here, especially the rustic style. Maybe they grow them in the huge field outside? For the locals, seems to be pretty popular among the biker community. I would have not known or gone to this area unless was work related, so it was ok for me.

    What is better than all you can eat Ribs? Maybe being review 69 here Giggidy. I know I am immature…read morebut if there are any Family Guy fans out there I know I made you chuckle a little. The Ribs are incredible! They literally fall off the bone. The first plate is a huge stack of ribs with good creamy Cole slaw and tasty potato wedges. The first plate is quite filling itself but when it's all you can eat, you need to unbutton your pants and let your belly fill up. The ribs bbq sauce isn't sweet but more on the savory side which I thought was tasty. If they had a variety of sauce that would be even better. As long as you keep asking they keep bringing them out. Sometimes you may have to wait a little for the ribs but that's only because they are busy. And after about 4 stacks of ribs there is no better way to wash it down than with some good quality German beer.

    This is not the American Restaurant you are looking for! If you're a fan of readymade, frozen food,…read moreyou're in the right place. Not only are the starters, such as the onion rings, chicken nuggets and filled chillies pre made mass produce but they also all get tossed into the same deep frier causing the onion rings to taste like chicken, the fries/chips to taste like onion and the mozzarella sticks to taste like chicken. Even the nachos are your every day bagged produce, including the horrible pepper powder. Not even the simply made potato wedges are fresh! The burgers are a sad affair, again with cheap sauces from the supermarket, even the sear marks on the chicken breast burger are fake and the patties are so dry and tasteless you might as well start eating the table you're sitting at. And don't bother trying to tell the waiter how you'd like your steak. The chef only makes one version: extremely well done although the well done here is a bit of an oxymoron as he prepares the steak to the point that they're so dry you could sell them as leather and make a couch out of them. The salads are ok albeit expensive and yet again the dressings are off the shelf low end stuff. Sad! The American cole slaw is actually german mayonnaise extravaganza with some strips of coal, excuse me, cole. Now there are some positive things, the service is fast and friendly, the place is clean and the interior isn't too kitschy. The chairs and tables are comfortable and the benches in the back are great but that doesn't save the sadness emanating out of the kitchen onto your plate. Mind you, this restaurant's menu has nothing to do with the American kitchen. It's an amalgamation of average German fast food that's a bit Americanized by the Ketchup bottle on (most) tables. Virginia style? Nothing to be found here. Cheesecake Factory and Claim Jumpers would give this place a one punch knockout! So, if you're looking for American food, this is not the place to go, if you're looking for decent food, this is not the place to go, if you're looking for a quick bite and have no expectations of taste, you're in the right spot! And yes, there are an overwhelming number of good reviews of this place but I fear that has to be attributed to the fact that this is the only American restaurant (I seriously wonder if the chef has ever tasted any real American food) in a 10 mile radius.
