Mari provided excellent service, handling our reservation and greeting us warmly. The staff was quick and attentive, even during a busy Saturday night for Restaurant Week. The food was amazing, and I can't wait to come back and try more items from the menu. I highly recommend the German pretzel, Salted Caramel dessert, Crab toast, Raclette, Knachwurst, Spaetzle caccio e pepe, and of course, the beer boots. I enjoyed the Sunni Kolsh and the Shnitzengiggles. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend checking this place out.

Tried the oysters, beef croquettes, schnitzel, and cacio e Pepe and all were excellent. Also liked the decor/ design aesthetic very cozy and modern! Will def be back for brunch sometime.

The deals were amazing and sitting at the bar was a lot of fun. Our bartender was excellent and the service was very fast. We ordered rib tips, wings, fries, sliders, and a pretzel for appetizers. They were all very filling and tasty, and we had leftovers to take home. The drinks were just okay - my fuzzy socks cocktail and espresso martini weren't the greatest. Overall, it's a cool spot and was lively on a Saturday night!

We started with the broccolini and oysters, then moved to a full slab of ribs with white bbq sauce, and ended with desserts. Whenever I ordered abeer, the server asked if I just wanted the 16oz , because that 's their smallest serving. In proper German tradition, they alsohad a stein or a boot of beer available. Service was friendly and attentive, with other staff glad to jump in to grab anythingwe needed, and our desserts brought out by someone from the kitchen even.
