Today, the pizza crust was paper thin and the cheese was not fully melted. I also got wings which were terrible. The chicken tasted old and freezer burnt. The pepperoni on the pizza smelled "off" as well. I know it's cured meat but maybe it wasn't stored properly or just old, like the chicken wings. I wish I could go back in time and remind myself that I said that I wasn't going to eat here again. I would save myself some disappointment and $50!

My best friend and I came here to grab lunch and catch up after the craziness of the holidays and…read moreloved the open space and upbeat atmosphere. I personally am not a huge fan of booth seating, but it's all they have. I was pretty grossed out that the booth was really crumby, I wish they cleaned them better. We started out with drinks, my best friend ordered the blue sparkler which i thought was really cute and she really enjoyed. I got the strawberry crush with a shot of Tito's which was dangerously delicious. It tasted like juice and I loved it. For appetizers, we got the fried cheese, which the menu claimed is the best cheese pull, and it delivered on that. I was obsessed with the ratio of breading to cheese; I'm not normally a huge fan of fried food, but this was so yummy! Maybe it was feral of me, but I mixed the ranch and the marinara together and dipped my fried cheese in, and it was totally bomb. The service here was really fast; our mains came out fairly quickly, while we were still finishing our appetizers, and both dishes were hot. My bestie ordered the grilled prawn avocado bowl, which looked absolutely delectable; her prawns looked perfectly grilled, and the avocados looked fresh and ripe. I ordered the prawn scampi linguine without the mushrooms and was obsessed with how flavourful it was. The shrimp was juicy and flavourful and I loved how creamy and garlicky the sauce was. The moment my dish got to the table I was dipping the garlic bread in the sauce and eating a bite of heaven. As someone who loves seafood, I love it when a restaurant gets it right, and I was really enjoying savouring my meal. I was still eating my lunch when our server, Marcus, tried to give us our check. I was so confused because I'd been really looking forward to getting dessert and more drinks. It made me feel rushed because I'd been looking forward to relaxing and chilling with our bestie. Our server apologised and took our bill back, but it was just so weird, I don't know why he didn't ask us first. For dessert, my bestie got the mile high mud pie, which looked so drool-worthy, I was honestly so jealous I didn't get it myself. Thankfully she let me steal some of hers and I loved it so much. I ordered the bread pudding, and while I loved the flavours and the ice cream, I feel like the bread pudding itself was super dense and dry in the middle. With dessert and while we were gossiping I ordered a tiramisu martini which was so rich and delectable, I loved how sweet the chocolate was, and the frozen texture made for the perfect drink. I can't wait to come back here with my bestie again soon!

Recently stopped in here for a date night with the wife…read more We've been looking for a decent replacement ever since Tacoma lost the Rhein Haus. Since my wife is of German heritage, brats and kraut are a thing in our life. The menu here looked really good, so we stopped in our 29th anniversary. I will say, there is a parking lot across the street. For those who've been in the area for a while and remember past times, it used to be a used car lot Luckily I found an empty spot on the street right out front, so I grabbed it. But yeah, parking in this area can be tricky. Just be aware that there is the lot across the street on Puyallup Avenue, the entrance is from "Court A", which looks like an alley but is technically a road. Tacoma is fun like that. So let's talk food. We ordered the Brätzel, because my wife loves a good soft pretzel with some beer cheese. This one states that it's a beer cheese soup, and it was a bit thinner than a typical beer cheese. But it had a really good flavor. It was not gritty at all like some beer cheese can be (I'm looking at you Hops&Drops). I'm not a huge pretzel fan, but I will say that I tried a portion of it and enjoyed this one. The pretzel had a good flavor and the beer cheese soup was great. We also split the Landjäger / Käse Platte. Let's get one thing clear, this thing is bigger than it looks on the menu. There's a lot here. I'm really not sure exactly which of the four cheese were which. If you go by the description on the Käse Platte then it should be Bavaria Bleu Crème, Raclette, Emmentaler and Butterkäse. The Bleu Crème is easy to spot. The rest look similar really. But each had a unique flavor and all tasted absolutely wonderful. The cured beef and pork sausages were good, but the cheese stole the show here. We also shared the Berliner Platte for a main. Again, I can not stress this enough, there is A LOT of food here. the two of us had no chance of eating all this. This plate comes with the following sausages; Berliner Bratwurst, Smoked Cheese, Spicy Cheese, Chicken Andouille & Bockwurst as well as being served with sauerkraut and you get to pick two sides. We chose the Spätzle and Pommes (fries). All of this was amazing. The spicy sausage and the andouille were too spicy for my wife, but we knew that going in. If you have a group and are wanting to sample the many wursts here, I would highly recommend this plate. Now, let's talk service. I don't remember our server's name, but she was so great. Very friendly, very tentative, very good at her job. This was exactly the kind of service I look for when I go out to a restaurant. I don't want some tablet where I'm interacting with a faceless machine, I don't want a kiosk, I want a real person who engages with us and helps make our experience the best it can be, and this place gets it. The staff here is on point, they are good, they take good care of you and the experience made s want to come back. This place is for sure at the top of our list for German food here in Tacoma. If you have not been, you need to stop by. It's not big, it's not fancy, you'll drive right by it if you aren't paying attention. But this place is by far the perfect replacement for our missing sausage haus. We are so glad we stopped in.

As we arrived, we weren't sure if needed to seat ourselves but by the time we were about to look at a sign, a kind waitress let us know that we can seat ourselves anywhere and brought us menus. I saw that they had tables with fires which was really cool but unfortunately there were a lot of people sitting there so we just sat at the longer tables. The interior of this place is huge and bright! They have plenty of seating inside and it looks like they do outdoor seating which is dog friendly. We were told that they will have days where they have musicians playing German music and that it attracts quite a large crowd. Our waitress Sara was hilarious, personable and did a great job of taking care of us. She really made the visit all the more memorable and fun! We did order a lot: Berliner Platter with chips and spatzle, Berliner Sliders with fries and a bratzel. We did not realize just how huge the portions were for everything, like the platter was going to be big but we weren't expecting the amount of food for other order. Everything tasted absolutely amazing though! We really enjoyed everything and they do not mess around with flavors cause you taste exactly what they advertised. The house made chips were also fantastic and probably some of the best I've ever had. My boyfriend and I are excited to return and definitely will be sharing this spot to others as we thought we had to drive to Leavenworth for good German food but it is closer to home than we thought!

We showed up last night, late, after we'd both been working downtown doing physical work that just wore us out. Sure, we're in our seventh decade, but we both stay busy! And we just didn't want to cook a dinner after we have given out all our energy. So we walked in, and noted that the place is brightly lit and feels homey while also feeling like a place to be comfortable and not worry about who's watching. We went up to the bar to order our food and drinks, and sat at a table with our drinks. We maybe were there about five to ten minutes and our food came out, fresh and hot and with amazing scents of delightful ingredients. I had the Spicy Burger, which comes with a *six* ounce patty, with cheese, lettuce & tomato and onion, and a spicy chipotle mayo sauce and pickled jalapenos on a brioche. I *love* spicy food anyway, and this hit the spot. Spicy enough to fill the craving I had, and juicy enough that I needed a dozen extra napkins to catch all the juices and spices. My wife had the fish & chips. The fish was made with battered cod, and it was flaky and tender to the point of being "fall apart in your mouth" fresh. The tartar sauce was very good, too. And we both were so very pleased with the fries. They cut the potatoes into strips maybe 1/4" thick and 1/2" wide, but then they dip them in beer batter before deep-frying them. They were *amazing* - crisp and hot and tasty, and well seasoned. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, and we have made it a plan that the brewery will become one of the local restaurants we will return to often for a good meal after a hard day.
