Food was great had a smoked chop and pork stir fry the smoked chop was awesome, grumpy the kitchen master came out of his garage to see how we liked the food and gave us his homemade carrot cake, he has a grumpy exterior but we quickly had him laughing with us. The warm German tater salad was also killer. Ray the bartender is a solid dude we will be back. read more

The 5 stars are for Taco Tuesday. I plan on hitting up Wing Wednesday in the near future. This place is epic. Remember when you could smoke in bars in Ohio and dives had an odor? The combination of fried oil and butter mixed with stale beer and cigarette smoke would come together for this incomparable funk. Well you can still get a hint of that when you walk in the Sachsenheim. And that's not a bad thing. This place was full of people of all different walks of life. The music was loud and raucous. It was an ideal scene for reasonably priced German Beer and amazing tacos. This place easily provides the most bang for your taco buck. And I use the term buck literally; the tacos are only a dollar. But, the tacos would be worth it if they more than a dollar. They have a great variety, they all seemed good. The Jamaican Jerk Sausage and Chipolte Bacon Chicken were by far my favorites. In comparison to other taco spots, nobody stacks up. The only minor issue was the service. The place was packed, but still not an excuse. When we found seats at the bar, the bartender offered me a complementary Jameson for my trouble. She was forgiven instantly. This place is simply amazing. read more

My boyfriend and I drove from the East side for the legendary Taco Tuesday. We must've forgotten we left the house wearing our cloaks of invisibility, because we sat at a table for 35 minutes waiting to be served. Not only did we not get menus, we didn't even get a glance. Thankfully there are other Taco Tuesday Nights in Cleveland so we took our hunger elsewhere. read more

This is my favorite, favorite place for comfort food. Think schnitzel, pork loin, chicken Marsala. Tonight we had the chicken Marsala and it was a religious experience. Grumpy's Marsala sauce is INCREDIBLE! Also had the goulash. Thick chunks of tender pork, fat egg noodles and an awesome, rich sauce. Both meals were solid five stars. Yummmmm read more

Tried it out, it was an experience. The staffing was poorly planned, an estimated time of food order to table was 1 1/2 hours it took about 45 minutes for the food to arrive and when it came it came out fast. The bar was packed, and apparently you have to know someone to get waited on in a timely matter. Not coming back. read more

Great homemade brat burgers and fabulous beer. Plus great prices. We'll be back for sure. read more

Want to try thier Saturday night German food specials too. Definitely excited to go back!! Great watering hole for locals! read more

Don't be afraid to get out of your car here on Tuesday night. You are about to enjoy some of the best ( and cheapest) tacos in the city. The staff is very friendly so don't be upset if the service isn't great. Have a cold Dunkle relax and enjoy the trip down memory lane. read more

This is a place that is hard to rate. A four star review seems high for what this place is, but a three star seems too low. But I am giving it 4 based on ridiculously cheap prices and tasty food quality and the rest is just ancillary. Taco Tuesday and Wing Wednesday bring me back to this little dive over and over. This isn't your typical Taco Tuesday in Cleveland, where you only can choose from a few tacos. There are probably 15-20 choices that sometimes rotate, sometimes repeat. Last night I had the Ancho Chicken, Chipotle Pulled Pork, and Chicken Paprikash tacos. I'm usually squeamish about ordering meats and such in divey places but the flavors and quality seem pretty high. Lettuce, tomato, and cheese top all tacos, you choose your meat fillings (a few veggie choices, too), hard or soft shell, and sour cream and/or salsa. Beers are German and I usually split a giant stein with a friend, but last night I opted for a normal size beer. So, three tasty tacos and beer = $7. Seriously. $7. Wing Wednesday is a similiar set up with several wing choices, both dry and wet style. I love the wings but I haven't been going as often since wings make my clothes shrink. Ambiance and service? Well, remember you are eating good food on the cheap. Corners have to be cut somewhere. This is a super old historical bar that could be quaint, but sadly, is pretty rough around the edges. It did appear that they recently painted and repaired some ceiling damage. But the tables are old school cheap bar tables and it's very, very dark inside. And service varies from average to slow. Best bets are to sit right at the bar for quicker attention. It gets packed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and I don't think the kitchen can quite handle the volume efficiently during peak hours, but that's ok. Remember... $7 for really flavorful tacos and a quality German beer. Just know going in that this isn't fast food. And if you chose not to go? That's ok. More room for me at the bar to enjoy my uber cheap and suprisingly tasty tacos. read more

I'm no stranger to the Sachsenheim's glorious taco Tuesday. To start, don't expect to come in here and find a drink menu. This is a no frills, easy going, neighborhood bar (with a fantastic beer selection). I'm not much of a beer drinker anymore but who can resist $5 for a liter of beer? I'm pretty sure they are 10+ at other establishments. The taco Tuesday is amazing and has a variety of meat choices to choose from. I will also speak highly of their Fish Fry on Fridays. It was one of the best. The service is sometimes less than average, but we went last night and it seems that they have hired more wait staff and food runners recently. I hope to one day make it to their wing night! read more

This spot is a gem for sure. I've never found a place that did Taco Tuesday like this. An incredible assortment of different meat fillings and you can get them in an empanada as well! We each had 3 tacos and two giant German beers and our tab was $25. I want to spend every Tuesday here. read more

My girlfriend and I used to frequent here for Taco Tuesday...the food quality was usually decent. I'd give it a 7/10. However the service leaves much to be desired. On average it usually takes 15-20 minutes just to get your server to bring you a menu. Once you get your menu be prepared to wait and wait and wait before placing an order. This theme repeats itself throughout meal. Waiting for your food and further waiting to get your check. There have been many times were we had to approach or server (usually this older lady) to bring our check over. Due to the slow and inattentive service will unfortunately not be going back. Plenty of other places in this town to enjoy a taco Tuesday. read more

Great German brew and definitely my favorite dollar taco Tuesday spot! Truly 1 dollar tacos. They have a wife variety of fun choices (Korean bbq, of course that would catch my eye, etc). A great spot to relax with friends. read more

I live way over on the east side, and I drive all the way out here every other week because I love this place so much. There isn't much in the way of beer and food choices, but what little they have is always great. And they are one of the few places around that have a beer garden and ping-pong table. Combine that with the best Taco Tuesday around and German beer served in huge Liter mugs... this place is Awsome! read more

Went for Taco Tuesday. The selection was fantastic and it was pretty speedy service. The liter mugs of beer are also fantastic and everything is a great value. Ray that was bar tending that night was fantastic. Will definitely be returning. read more

Love love love wing Wednesday! When grumpy is on deck, the best wings are served! I even think they're better than the famous Quaker steak. Middle East, southwest , Cajun, tikka masala + more! The flavors are fantastic! I would every week if I could! read more

Every week nite at 5 PM Grumpy (Scott) opens the doors to culinary delights. His dishes are always fresh and tasty. Beer always cold and plentiful. Satiated friendly people abound in this old working class era hangout. Come enjoy the atmosphere, food and drink. You will not regret it! read more

TWO WORDS: WING WEDNESDAY. Hands down the best wings I've ever had in Cleveland! The place is no frills, but if what you are looking for is incredible wings this is the place. I had the Garlic Parmesan wings (amazing sauce) and the Jamaican Jerk (dry rub) and they were both great! read more

The city of Cleveland has a lot of solid taco nights, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this is hands down the best. $0.75 for some of the best tacos (not just pub tacos) I've ever had and $1.50 outrageously good empanadas. They usually have 7 or 8 different meats or flavors, each with a very distinct, delicious taste. Grumpy likes to mix in a few specials on top of the menu staples which I always go out of my way to try, and have never disappointed. They're wing is no joke either. $3 for a pound of wings and all they're sauces and rubs are home made and are top notch. Throw in $5 liters of good german beer and you've got a can't miss situation. read more

Never a let down on wing and taco nights! Great food at great prices and draft beer selection is top notch. Grumpy takes pride and it certainly shows....check it out. read more

The Sachsenheim did an excellent job handling our wedding reception on June 16th with 180 guests. The food was fantastic, but then again the food is always fantastic here. Could not have asked for better service, from the bartenders to the maintenance crew. Thanks to Grumpy, Mo, and everyone else who made this a wonderful occasion. read more

It may not be perfect, but it's perfect to me. The food is always good and ridiculously cheap, and their many taps of fast-drinking German beers are always alluring. It does seem chronically understaffed, but they do their best and patience is rewarded with big portions of hearty central European and American bar food to go along with full liters of that outstanding brew. It's also a fantastic and fantastically inexpensive party and meeting space. Finally, they have awesome special events like Schnitzel-fest and Sausage-fest, so you'd be wise to check out their Facebook page. read more

I came here for comedy on Thursdays, but I keep coming back for the food and beer.. Mo is the best bartender in CLE, hands down. He's always quick to recommend a new liter of beer for me, and he makes a mean sausage to go with it. Don't just go here for tacos, the burgers and sausages are cheap and amazing. read more

What can I say about this place? It feels like home from the moment you walk in. Moe treats everyone like a regular and it seems like he remembers you even if you've only been in a couple of times. Mallory is a fantastic bartender too. She's funny, keeps up a good conversation and makes a mean drink. Speaking of drinks, I'm not a big beer drinker but the dunkelweizen is on point and I'll have it every time. And don't forget the food. I've only seen a menu on Taco Tuesday but the kitchen also cooks up solid steaks, schnitzel, pork chops, and I'm pretty sure whatever else they feel like on any given night. Make sure you get some grumpy sauce for your fries if they have it. read more

It depends on for what you're looking, BUT, if you want a laid back, old-school, good-time Cleveland bar, the Sachsenheim is the place for you. I'd never been there prior to this evening, but I'd read some reviews and figured it was time to go. I met a couple of friends on Wednesday wing night for a few drinks. I was the first to arrive at about 9 p.m. and was a little wary of going in by myself since the place is located in a mildly sketchy neighborhood. In truth, it's just an old working class area and I knew that there was nothing to fear. So after waiting 10 minutes for my pals who ended up being 25 minutes late, I decided to enter. There were a few other customers, but the place was pretty empty. I asked the barmaid about the draft beer selection (about which I'd read) and she replied with about 5 or 6 quality German drafts. I settled on the Kronenbourg 1664 and sipped on it while waiting. The beer was fresh and cold. My friends arrived around 9:25. One ordered a Warsteiner and the other ordered some German IPA. They too were quality beers. Since it was wing night, we ordered 1 pound of chipotle dry-rub wings and 1 pound of hot buffalo wings. We did not order any blue cheese dressing. This proved to be a MAJOR mistake. The wings arrived and were beautiful. The dry-rub were well coated with rub and the buffalo were doused in sauce. We attacked the dry-rub. The attack was short lived. While the flavor was fantastic, the heat on the dry-rub wings was ridiculous. The three of us were sweating and crying. To cool off, we actually ate some buffalo wings. Our mouths were scorched. In spite of the pain, the wings were VERY tasty and fresh. The meat was white and the skin was crispy. After acting like babies, we asked the cook (and apparently the majordomo) to bring us a blue cheese. Although my two friends had had enough, I dipped the dry-rub wings into the blue cheese and it properly balanced the heat. The cook later told us that the dry-rub chipotle wasn't really that hot and that the REAL hot wings were the "death by pepper" and habanero. After the wings were finished (we actually left 3 of them), we had a few more beers and played a few tunes on the juke box. The place emptied out and we discovered that there was a ping-pong table in the back of the room. Since my good friend Blanco and I are players, we were pleasantly surprised by this discovery and played a game using the house paddles and ball. Unfortunately Blanco got the best of me in a 22-20 overtime win. The top-notch barmaid informed us that Wednesday nights during the cold months are ping-pong nights and that many players congregate, sweat, swear, and have a good time at the table. We will certainly be joining them this year! This joint is solid. The lines of the beer taps are CLEAN which is a complete rarity in Cleveland these days. Just about every time I drink a draft beer in a restaurant or bar, I taste the nasty (although usually faint) aftertaste of unclean tap lines; like some sort of rotting mold of which the owners are unaware and the patrons are too kind to mention. Not the case at the Sachsenheim. The barmaid was friendly and informative about the history of the place, the food was fresh and properly prepared, and the atmosphere was casual and old-style. If this is what you like, get there ASAP. read more

I went there and sat down with my husband and the bartender Jessica who had served us was very flirty with him. I got no respect she could not remember my name but she could his. She spoke over me and made me feel if as I was not there. Then on the way out she continued to be aggressively flirty from behind the bar. The food was great the place seemed nice other than the lady who had waited on us. Not only the man pays for the meal. Women pay the bill also to and deserve the same respect. It should not be assumed just because a man normally pays the bill thats the one you kiss up too. When Husband and wife or boyfriend and girlfriend come in they both should be noticed not just one. Great food but rotten service!!! read more

Amazing place ! Awesome food and good people . If somehow it doesn't work out for you just be patient

The prices here are really low but food is hit or miss. I used to visit for taco Tuesday and wing Wednesday quite often. Now sometimes I go and the wings are so salty and dry I throw them away. The taco night is still generally good but it gets overcrowded and not enough people working there. If you are in the area and don't mind the wait, give it a try. It is by no means a fancy place so don't bring a date! read more

Tacos are great, and very cheap. The service however makes it impossible to enjoy the experience. If you go here, be prepared to wait a good while unless you intervene, and even then you'll probably still be waiting. Every time I've gone there we have had a problem with the one waitress (older lady, always wears her hair in a braided ponytail). She's very hard to track down, always irritated, and rude. The last time we were there, one of my tacos was wrong, my friend's cheese didn't taste right, and we were given no napkins (getting napkins at this place would have been another 20 minute wait). I brought all of these to her attention after she had to literally be sought after, and she flipped out and walked away. She told us "scratch the fucking ticket" so at least we got a free meal out of it, but we won't be back. read more

I really wanted to love this place. I've tried a lot of different things here and visited around 10 times. I've done the taco night, the wing night a couple times, did new years eve there, and I went to the cinco de mayo buffet. I love old bars, dive bars, i'm easy to please. But this place just isn't good service-wise, which is too bad because overall the food is good and fairly priced. Taco night is an under-staffed madhouse. We never went back for that after waiting endlessly while two servers tried to serve everyone and failed miserably at it. Wing night - the prices and wings are good but again - bad service most of the time. I'm not expecting a server to fall over themselves for me. I'm looking for someone to check in on me more than every 45 minutes, get my order somewhat right, and to not be rude the entire time. Apparently that's too much to ask here. New Years experience was actually much better than the other times we went. Good meal, somewhat decent service for the food, and the male bartender, who is often there, was great. Cinco de mayo buffet was a joke. The guy who makes the food there - let's just say he definitely lives up to his chosen nickname. He restricted what we could get as we were going down the line....we weren't trying to take an excessive amount of food by any means. I merely wished to try one chicken empanada and one beef since i didn't love a lot of the other options and he rudely barked at me that I could only have one and only one or the other. Is this not a buffet? You aren't allowed to serve yourself at said buffet, there are staff members there to serve you one small piece of what you desire and you can only have one. So, stunned and puzzled, my party walks with their small plates of food to a cafeteria-style table to eat. Trying to make sense of it, the people in my party thought, well, maybe they just want to make sure everyone gets some of everything before letting you have more? So we went back up to inquire and the man barks at us that this is not all you can eat, we got our plate, so we can go sit down. We were never rude or demanding in any way so I can't understand why he is so hostile. It was such a bad experience that my brother, who was there for the first time, vowed to never return. What also disturbed me was there was a lot of leftover food from this buffet since they we're being so restrictive with portions, and we watched them pack the food back up in a way that made it seem like it was going to be served again at some point. I wish this place was better, as we'd go there weekly if it was. You shouldn't be made to feel like a business is doing you a favor by taking your money, but that's exactly how it feels. We tried the wing night one last time following the bad buffet night and service was so bad once again, we just gave up and have never returned. read more

Best taco Tuesday in town, and liters of beer! Liters! Only 4 stars because the service can be sketchy, despite friendly staff. Great taco selection though, and the empanadas are delicious, definitely my favorite. A few years ago it was frequented by older blue collar types, now is definitely more "hipster." Still I`ll risk hipster run-ins and slow service for an ancho chicken empanada and black bean & corn taco! read more

Worst fish fry and service ever! When we first arrived I went to the bar to grab a drink knowing the wait time could be awhile. The bartender was annoyed that I did not know about the beer selection and never once so much as cracked a smile. We waited for a table only to be greeted by a very frustrated waitress responsible for the whole dining room. The waitress told us it's going to be an hour and a half for food and she didn't know when she would get to clean off our table from the previous guests. Still we decided to wait in hopes the food would be worth it. When are food finally arrived the perch was dry, hard, and definitely left in the fryer for to long. Nothing was homemade and most of us did not even get tarter sauce served with our fish. The fish, pierogi's, and fries where definitely supermarket freezer items and very poor quality. We got there at 6:30 on a Friday night and they were out of shrimp and sour cream. Lastly, they ran out of pierogi's so the kitchen decided to give us smaller orders but for the same full price and with no sautéed onions as advertised. The pierogi's came with a literal cup of applesauce minus the pull off lid that you would put into your child's lunch box for school. Do not waste your families money or time. Cleveland has so much better to offer in the way of a good fish fry. read more

Love this place had my baby showers and also wedding and reception.great price nice rooms and out going people
