She greeted me warmly as usual. Since I used to live in the Chicago-South Bend, IN area, I provided her a little garden flag from the Pierogi Festival I would attend when I was up in that area. She hung it proudly in her deli and thanked me for the gift. I thanked her for bringing authentic Polish food back into my life! I purchased the Polish kielbasa sausage again as well as the Polish ham. Both were exceptional the last time I purchased them. This time, I added frozen pierogies-one made with cheese and the other with sauerkraut. It reminded me of the pierogies my mom used to make, and I cannot wait to serve them for the holidays. I then asked Monica if she had any golabki (stuffed cabbage). She said, "I just made some fresh this morning." I purchased a package of three. I had two of them later that evening and they brought back great memories of my past. They were as good as babcia (grandmother) used to make! It's always fun and entertaining to stop in here and enjoy a laugh with Monica. If you want authentic Polish supplies, this is the place to go!

I love Polish and German food. Numerous times I have meant to try this place. The food that I…read morepicked up at Europol had the flavor of homemade European food without any work. It is a small store and unlike a lot of international markets the shelves are not jam packed with products. They have packaged groceries, prepared food and European cold cuts. I looked at some of the soups and gravy dry mixes. Some have stickers with English contents and instructions. They have spices with pictures on the package but one I thought looked like cilantro was a different herb in the marjoram family. They have made in house cabbage rolls. Fresh and frozen. Also frozen are hunter stew and soups. I was just going to get some cabbage rolls, bean soup and a couple of package products. However the very friendly staff member mentioned their cold cuts were one of their most popular items. She said many people shop there to buy their meats instead of the local grocery store. She offered to slice a sample of ham so I accepted. No wonder because it was delicious and I had to add some to my order. It tasted buttery with a hint of spice you find on Black Forest ham. My dogs were doing back flips from the aroma when I opened the package. Sorry pups all for me. Not everything has a price but like everything these day I imagine they are fluctuating. The staff was glad to quote prices and to help you select food even if you don't speak Polish.

Visiting friends in the Sanford area and stopped for lunch at Hollerbach's German Restaurant and…read morethe Willow Tree never disappoints! Decided to try lunch specials and got the lunch portion Pork Schnitzel with Potato Pancakes and Gurkensalat (fresh cucumber salad with yogurt/sour cream dressing) My companion ordered the Buffalo Sandwich but opted for pork rather than chicken. A surprising choice that turned out to be a very good one! Came with 2 sides, chose fries and red cabbage. We also ordered the cheese spatzle with butter cheese and gruyere. Nice day so we dined outside on the patio. Our server (didn't get his name) was helpful and quick with our beverages and order. Everything came out quickly, hot and fresh. The schnitzel was perfectly fried and tender. The potato pancakes crisp and delicious with applesauce and sour cream toppings! Gurkensalat, fresh slightly crunchy cucumbers in a light creamy dressing. Perfect summer salad! The Buffalo sandwich with pork instead of chicken was amazing! Cooked to tender perfection with just the right amount of buffalo sauce and heat. The grilled pretzel bun with cheese, lettuce and tomato was excellent. The fries were a great companion to the Buffalo sandwich. Red cabbage rounded out the meal adding both color and texture to the lunch. I come to this restaurant every time I visit Sanford as I love German food and the staff here is so friendly and welcoming! I highly recommend Hollerbach's German Restaurant for delicious German Food, great atmosphere and friendly service! Excelent Local Restaurant!

We should up ( 10 people) half over the age of 80. Christy ( the manager) asked us to wait outside in the heat , which we didn't do. She did not offer a chair inside to any of the older people. There were 3 empty table she told us were for other people and there was a line outside. It was a mess. She then told me it was because the World Cup was on. I think this is something they should have mad my mom aware of when she booked the reservation. It was just confusing and chaos. So we left. I thought the whole situation was poorly handled.

Firstly I'm just about as basic American slob as…read moreit gets, I've got hamburgers for bones and my blood is an ungodly mix of Pepsi and bud light. My point is I'm not the most worldly guy. These wonderful people opened their kitchen to us in a way I've never experienced. Granted their dining space was limited and it was unused and unlit when we arrived. But with merely a flick of a light switch and we were treated to a level of culinary excellence this poor soul has never had the privilege to experience before and worries aside from a return trip may never experience again. The owner treated us like family, asking questions kindly as we appeared to be undoctrinated with the food. Unbeknownst to him our matriarch was Russian, and of course she ordered for us. I have no doubt though that you could walk off the street with no Russian interpreter ( my wife) and still have a lovely time. The beef pilaf...I could eat this endlessly. The beef is so tender and amazingly seasoned, you can tell care is taken with the preparation. With it the rice and carrots are a wonderful medley of sweet and savory. Anyone who has had fresh pickles knows there's just no comparison to the mass produced kind, and lucky is they served the pilaf with beautiful slightly sour dill pickle slices. The blinchink with beef was a wonderfully crisp pocket of savory flavors and perfectly balanced with a playfully spicy sauce. The Olibia salad was light and flavorful but oh so satisfying, and my god the rye bread they brought with it would bring tears to your eyes just by it's lonesome. A wonderful side effect of such a smaller venue is the attention you get paid by the staff. Can we say czar for a day? Food was coming out constantly, we never had to ask for a single concession whether it be drink, silverware or food. And although ordinarily such quick service might cause one to concern themselves with pre-made food of lower quality, i can assure you it isn't the case here. Everything, and i mean everything, from the in house compote and kvotz to the samsa was of the highest quality and freshness as soon as it hit the table. You know how olive garden likes to say " when you're here you're family"? Meanwhile when you actually go it's just a dull eyed college kid half heartedly tapping your microwave order on an iPad. Well here you really are, the owner went so far out of his way to ensure our visit was excellent. I am saying this without alliteration, the man hugged me twice. If you want the best Russian food you've ever had and simultaneously meet some genuinely wonderful people, l highly suggest this restaurant.

I miss them all! We had these and more in the long buffet at Biergarten, and all of us came up for a second round. Instead of snacking our way around the lake as we did I our last Epcot trip, we went all in for a sit down here, and it'll be lovely to return in a future Disney trip. If you have lunch, skip breakfast like we did so you can enjoy another plate (or two?) as everything is comfort food amazing. Band and table service aren't at the same times, alas, and the entire restaurant faces the stage so I imagine this must be a perfect Disney spot with the music. Though we weren't rushed, we were full long before the band began, so next time we'll try to have dinner here instead of lunch. Despite no music we had a feast, Michelle was pleasant and kind, and kept our drinks full, and the host and buffet staff were attentive and helpful. Music or not, this imagineered restaurant, night-set in yesteryear with a courtyard and trees, was a treat.

This was his first night and was equally as good as the primary server, except he had to get help on a few questions we had that related to how to use certain sauces etc. And he got the help very quickly. We started with the pork belly. Fried crispy on the outside and still tender on the inside. It was served with what looked like marinara, but it had an amazing spice mixture in it. Spices as in seasoning, not heat. The best pork belly I have ever had, I could eat just this, and if I were alone it would be enough. We had a cup of hunters soup and polish mushroom soup. Both were very good. I would skip those next time to save room for other things, but only because I would rather eat other things. There were enough tables to seat quite a few people without overcrowding anyone. As a main course we decided to split the polish sampler. 2 potato pancakes, 2 cabbage rolls, 8 perogies and a polish sausage. We didn't know how big the sausage would be so we ordered a side, we did not need it. There was so much food, we did not finish it all and my wife had some for lunch the next day, and still there was leftovers. The place is hidden in a 3 story shopping center, but well worth looking for.

We were welcomed with warm smiles and walked straight to the deli. We shared the Rubinstein and bratwurst (everything on it). It's true - it does take a while for the food to be made but it's so worth it. The meat is sliced is front of you and made to order. My favorite is their cucumber side that's drenched in dill sauce. $2+ beers for happy hour, everyday! Kolsch beer all the way, baby! Shoutout to the chef making our sandwiches. I didn't get his name but he's a super nice guy with a black beard. He was apologetic for the wait - but we assured him there's no rush. We will always wait for quality food! Another shoutout to Priscilla, who was so kind when cashing out our order. We're so ready to come back... tomorrow (haha)! Thank you, Hollerbach team who worked tonight (3/29/2026). We hope you always serve us. Now I don't have to travel 10 hours to Europe for a brat. Love this place.

You order at the counter and then they bring it to you. There was only one man working behind the counter doing everything. He was super nice and very helpful in giving recommendations. Kudos to him for doing it all and making sure food got out in a timely manner. They have one German beer on draft, the Bitberger. Very light, delicious German beer. They have a good selection of bottles and cans too, and a few wine options. I ordered a Dukas flatbread. It sounded so different and interesting, and it certainly was. It was messy and fun, and very tasty. My only critique: I just wanted more bratwurst, and a bit more toppings overall. My friend got the Die Behrens. I usually don't like schnitzel, but I had a bit and thought the combo of flavors was pretty good.
