All the tables were full and customers were constantly coming and going. I can see why after checking em out. Pricing is fair. If you compare it to auntie Anne's they are cheaper with better quality ingredients being used. Service was very quick - there is a kiosk at the front counter or you're able to order with a staff member. Within 5 mins our snack was ready. My husband and I tried a salted pretzel with nacho cheese sauce and creamy mustard sauce. The pretzel itself was cooked perfectly. Texture wise it was somewhat crispy on the outside with a very fluffy center. The nacho cheese sauce was better than cheese sauces I've had before. The creamy mustard was reallll good, we ended up taking the remainder of it home so we could use it for something else.

Three stars just because our choices that night didn't wow us, but we plan on going back for the food and service. There were more beers to try next time!

A kind of limited amount to choose from but these are well crafted. The prices are okay if a bit higher. Came in and we got a table so we could drink and eat. It's only got beers but you can bring in stuff. There's plenty of places within a fast walk. As for the beers here, the selection is kind of limited. It's about $7 a pint. Best one we got was the Sour Belgian Monkey Strong Ale. It's 9% ABV and certainly strong. For food we went to The Otherdoor. It's about $11 for a few tacos. Also Maevery Public House is next to here. There's lots of close by restaurants and stores. Have a good time with beers and games. It's just beers on the menu but you can still bring in stuff. They're open every weekday and open longer on weekends.

We started at the bar, where I tried a non-alcoholic Clausthaler (which reminded me a bit of Heineken), while a friend ordered the massive 32-ounce "big-as-your-head" Hacker-Pschorr Weissbier. Since the weather was perfect, we sat outdoors in the spacious biergarten, which easily accommodates groups of any size. ​We started with the Sausage Sampler ($18)--a trio of sausage served over sauerkraut (the kraut was so good on its own you definitely shouldn't skip it). For mains, my husband chose a favorite, the Stuffed Cabbage Rolls ($28), which did not disappoint. Our friends ordered the Beef Stroganoff ($28), Jäger Schnitzel ($29), and Rouladen ($30). I opted for the Bayerischer Schweinshaxe ($35)--a 3lb roasted pork shank that turned out to be the absolute best value on the table, as it was easily enough for four meals! ​For sides, the cucumber salad was refreshing and tangy, the spätzle (a German take on pasta) was perfectly tender, and the vegetable of the day (sautéed summer squash) was flavorful and satisfying. We ended the night by sharing a huge slice of German Chocolate Cake. ​To top it off, our two-person service team was fantastic--constantly keeping drinks refilled and clearing plates to keep everything running smoothly. Highly recommend!

First we can talk about the restaurant itself, very big! Huge bar when you walk in and tons of dining space, I can't imagine a day you can't get a seat for lunch or dinner so don't worry if you haven't planned ahead! The whole place is decorated very well and has a true feeling of Germany. Renee was our server and she was sweet, happy and incredibly attentive in a good way. She answered our questions and honestly we're very accurate. We started with a pretzel Ofcourse, it was fresh warm and we could have had two easily! I decided to try their sauerbraten, I will say, it's nearly not sour enough for me. It was on the sweeter end but I have a feeling they try to gear the meals towards more people Enjoying them, it wasn't for me however unfortunately The dessert was sadly another let down. My favorite cake is black Forrest and it was far from traditional. Overall. I will still give the restaurant a decent rating as I think many other people will truly enjoy the food here, but for someone who grew up in a German household, spent time in Germany and ate from the homeland quite a bit, it simply wasn't for me.
