When you walk in just go for a table and seat yourself. What I have found in Germany is that you need to seat yourself unless there is a sign. If you don't then you will lose the table to the person walking in behind you.The food here is great. They have a daily special menu written on a chalk board just inside the front door. I had the Shrimp Scampi dish. It was not your traditional scampi style but a very light tomato base. It had a nice spicey tang to it. On special was a Gnocchi dish and a large salad with sliced hot beef. The Gnocchi was also great as was the salad but the beef was a little tough. I have heard that you need to ask if it's beef as Germany is known for serving horse.The daily specials are planned out at least one week ahead of time. We hope to return for a Rolladin dish which i have heard is also good.The desserts were homemade by our server. I had the vanilla apple cake which was also good.They do not take credit cards or should I say the "credit card machine was not working".

The food is good and the ambiance is cozy. Most of all, staff is really sympathetic. Worth the visit in all senses!
