    Always a wunderbare experience!I love this place so much that I visit almost every month.Great food, the beer is always fresh and cold, and the bill is always shockingly small.Not to mention great music when the band plays, amazing football atmosphere and a beautiful people-watching deck outside.Always great!

    This is the place for decent lager in New York and available in litre jugs. Most of the European lagers in the city tastes flat but not here, they have a very nice house lager on tap.Staff polite and attentiveFoods nice as well, chicken wing are a little tough but I found that to be the same across all of new yorkSpacious seating area with plenty of fans, balcony for smoking and loads of tellys for watching sports on.

    Better place to see Euro soccer.Best venue to watch German game in NYC on Juneteenth. Memory of Worldcup game. Good win against Sweden. Tough lossAnyway. Staff still very diligent, attentive, efficient, responsive despite crowded atmosphere.Like pork knuckle, bratwurst size. Deliciously done.Warm apple tart with ice cream good.When hot weather with crowd, almost open door, mosquitoes as well. Need hydration. Thank you for serving liter of ice.

    We had a great day at the Bierhaus in New York. Period. The ambience was very nice, the beer delicious and the food tasted good. We will definitely be back.

    I always seek out schnitzel everywhere I go and this place is now on the top of my list. Excellent food and excellent beer. Will definitely be back.

    Loved our experience and the food!Authentic German beer hall with a nice variety of real beer, great service and great décor! Even a nice view from the 2nd floor!The soft-baked pretzel and dijon mustard were worth the walk alone!A must when in NYC!

  • Review 7 (2024-10-13 - Rating: 5)

    It really feels like an authentic German beer hall. My partner and I went for an Oktoberfest celebration and it was absolutely a fun vibe. Live music, good beer, and fun vibes. Our server, Gabby, was absolutely fantastic. She was very sweet and very attentive. She brought our beers and food very quick. She even noticed my partner and I were playing Connect 4 on our phones and she brought over the physical board game and offered multiple times to bring us other games. Her attention to detail and kindness encourages us to make this a regular haunt. Our favorite Oktoberfest in New York, and we can’t wait to bring our friends to do a ski shot. Highly recommend, especially if Gabby serves you.

    Its nice to sit outside with a view of 3rd Avenue. The homemade sauerkraut and sausages were delicious. And thanks to our server Margarita

  • Review 9 (2024-11-06 - Rating: 5)

    Absolutely have a great time every time I come here. Almost a month-to-month repeater. Food is great, beer always fresh and cold, and, most surprisingly, cheap! Live music-just what the place needed-then, of course, the excitement of football match days on deck outside and just a great spot for people-watching. This is the place to get quality lager in New York, served in liter jugs. Unlike other European lagers around town, theirs is never flat. Their house lager on tap was great. The service is friendly and good. Inside its roomy with several fans, a balcony for smokers, and lots of TVs to watch sports. The perfect place to watch German games and even great during Juneteenth.

  • Review 10 (2023-05-24 - Rating: 4)

    Going during lunch time doesnt do it justice. Looking forward to trying it at night. Only one server during lunch which slows everything down. Great beer and good food. I dont think you can mess up German food too much. I would patronize again. Convenient location was a plus. Good for large groups.

  • Review 11 (2023-08-27 - Rating: 4)

    I ventured to this establishment for a leisurely Sunday brunch, finding it to be pleasantly uncrowded. However, the limited waitstaff did necessitate a brief wait for seating, and the dish preparation took longer than anticipated.Opting for the crispy pork knuckle, I was met with an overall delightful culinary experience. The pork skin showcased an exceptional crispness, harmoniously complementing the robust flavors of the meat, despite its generous thickness. The side sauerkraut, in my humble gastronomic opinion, was executed to perfection, boasting a delightful interplay of sweetness and tanginess that invigorated the palate.The sweet and savory glaze, a masterful component, artfully balanced the dishs inherent richness. Regrettably, the portion of this delectable glaze proved rather diminutive, starkly contrasting with its portrayal on the menu. Upon inquiry, I learned that the establishment produces a limited quantity of this glaze to accompany each knuckle daily, with no option for additional purchase. It left me yearning for a more generous serving, as it plays a pivotal role in offsetting the porks inherent richness.Nonetheless, my overall experience was agreeable, further heightened by the charming German-themed decor that enveloped the ambiance.

    I really loved the seasonal brew, the Jägerschnitzel, and the kids left over Mac and cheese. ❤️ the kids ate all of the applestrudle and ice cream Sunday, so I assume it was also really good because I didn’t get a single bite.

  • Review 13 (2023-08-16 - Rating: 4)

    Randomly ended up here for a Sunday lunch and we were one of just two parties in the space - so you definitely didn’t get the typical beer house atmosphere and for some reason service was still kind of slow despite how empty it was. That said, the food was a pleasant surprise! Hard to do pretzel and bratwurst wrong (both tasty) but I was most surprised by the crispy pork knuckle - flavorful, not too fatty, tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. Pairs super well with the side sauerkraut and pickled onions! Note the restaurant is on the second floor up a set of steep stairs (not sure if there was an elevator).

  • Review 14 (2024-01-14 - Rating: 4)

    The atmosphere is great, in typical German style. They have live music during the evening hours. The beer is just typical German beer you can find in any store; you won’t find anything special here. I ordered the “Wurst Sampler Platter,” and it was okay. Overall, besides the atmosphere, nothing special, but a good place to stop for a quick bite and beer.

  • Review 15 (2024-10-10 - Rating: 5)

    Brilliant place in midtown. Serving staff were amazing, great beer, and the sausages were awesome! Big space, so didn’t feel as crammed as other bars in the area. Highly recommend

  • Review 16 (2023-11-17 - Rating: 4)

    I can’t comment on the food but it’s got a great German beer hall atmosphere and if you’ve got a large and thirsty group who’d prefer not to stand, this this was a decent choice. Good selection of German beers on tap, which you can even get in a liter-sized glass boot!

  • Review 17 (2022-06-22 - Rating: 5)

    This German resturant is very laid back and has a fun atmosphere. Waitresses wear German outfits and everything looks very rustic. They do have TVs all through out for games on different screens so that’s also fun. There is a small balcony that faces the street which is cool.Have been here twice already, and always enjoy it a lot on a relaxing night with friends. First time I ordered the Cauliflower soup which was delicious and second time a bacon burger.****Their potato chips are wayyyyy better than their french fries. 😉Great prices and great service!

  • Review 18 (2023-09-26 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing spot! So cozy, especially in the fall. Go for trivia on Mondays- its about 2.5 hours, and has great prizes. We placed third and got a giant pretzel 🥨

  • Review 19 (2024-07-13 - Rating: 4)

    If you like German beer, the place to go. The currywurst, see photo, was excellent.

  • Review 20 (2023-02-12 - Rating: 5)

    Always a good time. Fridays w the band is a must. No other place to do Octobers with their free beers from the keg tapping and amazing whole pork thats given to everyone like its a family function. Weekend brunch is great and fun to bring the kids along. Food is always delicious and selection of beer is great, attentive fast service rounds out a great time.

  • Review 21 (2024-12-23 - Rating: 5)

    The best German restaurant I’ve seen in the US. Good choice of German tap beer, stylish interior, German music and great food.

  • Review 22 (2024-07-15 - Rating: 5)

    Fantastic food. Had the schnitzel and the bratwurst - no potato pancakes on the menu :-). Both very good but I’d have to name the bratwurst as the winner. Red cabbage and potato salad also delicious as was the dark beer. It was a bit warm since it was around 80 outside but tolerable. Great place to watch the Argentina Columbia soccer finals.

  • Review 23 (2022-11-05 - Rating: 5)

    Definitely a coool after work chill place... seems like more corporate after work type crowd. The service was exceptional and friendly and the food was really tasty .. everyone must try to Brussels sprouts, its too die for . Food was great and the red queen drink was one of my favorites , a place to check out on the east side and worth it

  • Review 24 (2024-09-14 - Rating: 4)

    We were there for the first day of Oktoberfest and the vibe was crazy fun. The food is good and the beer is great!

  • Review 25 (2018-01-09 - Rating: 4)

    After having been to almost all the traditional Bavarian places in Munich, this place initially felt like a little bit of a letdown; like a cheap American copy of an centuries-old Bavarian tradition. Yes the ladies in dirndls were there, but there was an element of added sex appeal here. Yes there was Bavarian pride in flags and banners, but it wasnt done in the traditional, humble manner. Yes there was plenty of seating here, but not in the traditional bench format that I got used to. The beer was Bavarian and good, but more expensive and not _nearly_ as good as Id hoped itd be. The band was interesting, but it felt like there was a little bit too much focus on the band and less on the interactions between the people. The food was okay, but a little bit too Americanized.Still. For being thousands of miles away from the originals, this one did do a pretty good job of reminding me what I do miss of Bavaria. A solid wave of nostalgia did hit me, and if this the best we New Yorkers can come up with of Bavaria and its fine traditions, then weve done a pretty good job of balancing Bavarian Brauhaus and Keller culture with American capitalistic might.

    I may have never been to Germany BUT in my inexperienced opinion this food is not only authentic, it’s also freaking delicious WOW.

  • Review 27 (2022-06-14 - Rating: 5)

    We visited for both happy hour and again for dinner. The happy hour is top notch. Food is great. Service great. Feels Austrian/German. Bier is German, and the food is also German/American.

  • Review 28 (2024-02-20 - Rating: 4)

    I went here for a Valentine’s Day and it was a cute place to be with my girls. It is a little pricey however it is in the city so we knew where we were going.

  • Review 29 (2022-07-31 - Rating: 5)

    Very friendly staff and all the traditional German food and beer you can ask for. The regular Steinholding contest is a wonderful and fun part of the authentic ambiance.

  • Review 30 (2024-07-05 - Rating: 4)

    Good place to watch sports and enjoy some German food and beers!

  • Review 31 (2024-05-08 - Rating: 5)

    One of the best beer gardens in Manhattan. We watched the soccer game, had some good German beer, and enjoyed a bite to eat. Service was great.

  • Review 32 (2023-10-22 - Rating: 5)

    Great place for German cuisine and beer lovers with tasty food, decent portions, and good service. Everything I’ve tried was tasty. Especially Beef Sliders were absolutely amazing, juicy, and flavorful.I also had Wurst Sampler Platter which came with 5 different sausages, potato, cabbage, and sauerkraut and it was great. Bierhaus Pretzel was very soft, warm, and freshly baked. Haus Chicken Wings were tender but a bit spicy for me.They have screens to watch sports games. Also a live band or some German music playing background.

  • Review 34 (2024-01-29 - Rating: 5)

    My wife and I stumbled upon this gem randomly one night on our walk back to the hotel. We had a flight of their selected beer drafts and chips with beer cheese. Nothing disappointed. Definitely will be back!

  • Review 35 (2024-10-30 - Rating: 5)

    Almost like being back in München. I wish they did have the Hofbräuhaus kartoffelknödel potato dumpling and dampfnudel but still a great place to eat and drink in Manhattan! Server was great.

  • Review 36 (2024-08-28 - Rating: 4)

    Nice get together for friends. Beer is excellent. Hofbrau Dunkel Weisen in particular. Food also tasty. Bierhaus burger and Wurst platter are the best so far. I wish the platter size was not modest though.

  • Review 37 (2022-12-18 - Rating: 5)

    Im not a beer drinker but my husband is and for the soccer World Cup it’s impossible to imagine without a beer garden. I love the vibe the waitress dressed up . I’m from Europe I know about everything Germany ,their beers and food nothing compares with them.They serve huge amount of quality heavy food!The HB beer the only one Im can drink but they have many cocktails also. One of the best place to watch soccer! I recommended this place forall the fans!

  • Review 38 (2023-09-08 - Rating: 5)

    Unique family-style bar experience. Its located on the second floor, not recommended for heavy drinkers (just saying). Maybe the first time I see kids inside a bar. It was cute and felt like a safe place to be. The food was great and the hot wine was fantastic!! Well visit again soon.

  • Review 39 (2024-08-11 - Rating: 5)

    Great experience! Came here with 2 close friends for a nice lunch after riding NYC Summer Streets! The beer was fantastic and the food was great! I would come back!

  • Review 40 (2023-12-23 - Rating: 5)

    This beer garden is ideal for enjoying beers. However, the cost of beer is quite steep, a common trend in most beer gardens and pubs throughout New York City. Paying $13 for half a liter of lager seems excessive, especially when considering that a comparable beer in Munich can be found for 4 euros in establishments of equal or higher quality. Despite this, I always have a good time here when Im with friends.

  • Review 41 (2023-03-17 - Rating: 5)

    Only rating off of the bar and environment, but will be back for the food soon! The bartender was amazing, they really got to understand our pallets and bring samples over until we decided on a beer. The vibe was awesome with the live music. Excited to check this out on a weekend.

  • Review 42 (2022-10-18 - Rating: 5)

    Bit of a rowdy/bro crowd, but if you can stomach that, the beer is fantastic, the atmosphere is festive, and the food has both improved in quality over the years and tastes delicious! Definitely drop the extra cash for the pork knuckle or braised shank (pictured).

  • Review 43 (2021-10-19 - Rating: 4)

    Great food, service, and atmosphere. This is a good place to go with a large group as well, highly recommend it.

  • Review 44 (2024-09-26 - Rating: 4)

    We came here to enjoy a few pints of good German beer. The restaurant is decorated like a traditional Bavarian bierhaus and certainly functions as such, as long as the long tables are full of beer lovers singing happy drinking songs and waving pints. We were there after work time and the place was still quite empty. We ate a few good bratwursts and enjoyed our beers. This place has a touch of Bavaria!

  • Review 45 (2022-06-16 - Rating: 4)

    Solid Munich/Oktoberfest-esque beer hall perfectly located in East Midtown. 3 blocks from Grand Central & easy to find. The atmosphere was laid back, the beer was perfect, and the food is pretty massive for the portions. Its strange that a sit-down restaurant asks for a card upfront, which makes it feel more like a bar & tab situation. Nevertheless I can absolutely see myself coming back when friends come into town & they are looking for a easy respite from the midtown chaos.

  • Review 46 (2024-10-03 - Rating: 5)

    Came here to celebrate Oktoberfest and the place didnt disappoint. The setting is warm and lively with the staff being friendly and the food...Their Hefe Weizen draft is sweet, smooth and goes down like water. The rest of my order were delicious but the crown jewel was their Chocolate Lava Cake. It not only fulfilled my sweet tooth but strengthen my resolve to come back for it again. Highly recommend it and will be back for my boot mug along with their other dishes.

  • Review 47 (2024-06-24 - Rating: 5)

    Cool place to try a liter Stein and try the sausage sampler.

  • Review 48 (2024-07-14 - Rating: 5)

    Came for the German-Spain Europcup match. Incredible atmosphere with TVs mounted everywhere. Great selection of German beer. Just be prepared to sweat it out in the heat of summer. No a/c with a giant skylight = sauna.

  • Review 49 (2024-08-14 - Rating: 4)

    I was here with my husband. We sat on the balcony. I liked the atmosphere, service, beer. We also ordered a set with sausages, sauerkraut and potatoes and really liked it. Prices are reasonable. One big disadvantage is that it is too loud, it is impossible to communicate, especially indoors. Overall I recommend

  • Review 50 (2023-02-02 - Rating: 5)

    Delicious authentic food. We had the Haxe and Shank and both were pretty much as having those in Germany. I am from Germany and fly over there a few times a year and when I have the chance to order Haxe in Germany, I always do. This one at Bierhaus was not as big as the ones you get in Germany, but it was cooked perfectly. If you look for authentic German food, this is the place to go to. Only negative point would be the Jaegermeister. It has to be served ice cold, but that is something that most restaurants/bars in the USA dont get right. Beer selection is great, atmosphere as well and live music started at 8:00 pm as well. We will be back. Thank you!

  • Review 51 (2019-05-18 - Rating: 5)

    Taking the entire second floor, this bier graden with communal tables instantly evokes the expected atmosphere. The waitstaff in tradional garb are both appropiate and playful. The beer flows freely with many options. Then there is the food...I have saved the best for last because the food on offer is hearty, flavorful, and traditonal. My massive Wurst Platter was a tour of 5 different wurst with potato salad, red cabbage, and warm sauerkraut. Each sausage is flavorful and can be enhanced with the spicy and sweet mustards provided. Do not miss this masterpiece! The crowd can become deep and loud and the music can drift from traditional so be aware when yoy visit what to expect.

  • Review 52 (2022-03-14 - Rating: 4)

    Nice place and the Jägerschnitzel is quite good. Its a try at a Bavarian beer hall, which isnt typical German.Staff is nice and prices are higher because its Manhattan.Biggest drawback are the long stairs to get in. Dont drink too much or you end up with broken bones trying to get down those stairs. Also, if you are handicapped it seems you are out of luck.

  • Review 53 (2023-03-20 - Rating: 5)

    TL;DR: A lively atmosphere and good food, beer, and mixed drinks.My companion and I chose this place to be our St. Patty’s Day hangout. We arrived before the late afternoon crowd and started with a couple of grapefruit Hefeweizens. They were a bit sweeter and less carbonated than versions I’ve had prior. We had one other beer, a stout, that was really good.For food, we started with a big pretzel that was served with cheese and a mustard dip. The pretzel was soft and warm with the right amount of salt.I selected the barbecue wings and Brussels sprouts from the appetizer menu and made them my entree. The Brussels were great and the wings were good too. I picked barbecue, but based on the bartender/server’s recommendation I’d get the buffalo wings next time.I heard that the peach cocktail was very good, so I’ll have to try their mixed drinks on my next visit. Prices for cocktails averaged $15, which isn’t too bad and the drinks are a decent size.

    Best place to celebrate Oktoberfest in New York is Bierhaus NYC ! Save and share! And like :-)I worked there for almost 3 years and i would still highly recommend this place due to the ambiance, festive atmosphere and entertainment, nice food :-) I’ve actually been to Octoberfest in Germany and in Austria and Bierhaus NYC is as close to it as it gets.During all the years of working there I would always see a crowd of guests on the 1st of October for Oktoberfest 🤣 Normally in Germany it would be almost over by then!So now you are aware that festivities have already started! What is a special program, you might ask?🍻 A variety of Hofbrau beer: Original, Dunkel, Hefe Weizen, Grapefruit Hefe, Dunkel Weizen and of course Oktoberfest Beer!🍺 All those could be served in bier flights / half liter steins / Masskrugs aka 1 liter steins / 2 liter steins!🐷 Pig roast and delicious samplesAs a restaurant manager and social media manager i was very involved in the life of the restaurant and i was happy to be back as a guest and to participate in an important and fun activity!🪓 Keg tapping and free festive portions from the keg!💪 For those who are strong and brave, Steinholding competitions would be a fun activity! The participation liter is free 👌🎶 All of that with live music from a super energetic band!👶🏻 Kidtoberfest on Sundays with free kids’ food - check the website for more info!Reservations are highly recommended!

    I think the environment is really great here and it’s fun and exciting they do offer happy hour, but the only downfall is only till Thursday instead of Fridays, which is kind of unusual for this area especially since the work area. It’s really close to Grand Central which is great for those visiting and I love the rooftop five with the open Ceiling which is wonderful. I have not tried the food so I gave it five stars and I will update if I do try the food in the future and the spritzer was OK. Maybe a little less soda water but again I understand. This is your place.

    When you are craving real German beer and authentic German food in the heart of Manhattan NYC. Nice big glass mug of original Hofbrau with a hot German style pretzel with good mustard followed by crispy pork knuckle and a flavorful pork snitzel. Brings back memories of your Germany trip. There are plenty of televisions to watch sports and be entertained. I could stay here for hours. Especially liked the long German beer hall style tables where you can sit around others and be social. Will definitely be back.

    A great spot for German beer, delicious wurst and just a lively atmosphere! The best part about coming to Bierhaus is ordering their famous Shotski - staff ring a bell and make you the center of the crowds attention!

    Welcome to to Germany!!! well sort of...Great place great atmosphere! German Bierhall right off 3rd Ave in heart of Midtown East. The place is beautifully decorated with staff donning the silly outfits. Authentic Hofbrau beer on draft is super deliious. The food is also under the radar delicious. Both chicken samdwiches, the burger and curry wurst are my faves. Great place to watch a game. So many TVs with spacious large tables. Lastly they have an amazing balcony overlooking 3rd ave.

    What could have turned into a miserable experience and totally ruined my night was saved by Jeff who besides being an amazing bartender (filling 4 - 5 beers at once!) also noticed a fellow patron was creeping on me and handled the situation.P.S. Food and beer are really really good.

    Amazing little german bar up a steep flight of stairs. The place was extremely lively on a weeknight, and service was prompt!I tried whatever the waiter recommended, and the beer was really good (I can’t for the life of me recall the name of the draft). I also split the appetizer sampler with my buddy I was with. The portions were a little small for the price, but it’s a bar in NYC so you can’t have high expectations. A great selection of meat and pickled vegetables to go with the beer.overall I had a great time and would recommend it for anyone looking for a german place to unwind in NYC!

    Atmosphere is great and everything else is just as wonderful, however a group of parents were letting their kids be loud and obnoxious enough that even though less than a quarter of the tables were full, my father and I could barely hear one another sitting across at a table on the other side of the room.No fault of the business or employees, but the parents.I highly recommend the Bierhaus, the food and drinks are delicious and well worth the price. Glad to see that they survived Covid, as my father and I visit here every year when we visit the city and its one of the best parts of the trip.

    You can buy 1 or 2 liter boots to drink during your outing here. I prefer the glass 1 liter boot since there is some good quality weight to the glass. The pretzel is a good starter and the schnitzel is a nice choice for a main course

    The place did not live up to my expectations. though a very good place to get beer and some snacks, hang out with friends, it was not all that I had expected in terms of meeting other friendly newyorkers nor its quality of food.

  • Review 95 (2022-12-13 - Rating: 4)

    One of the best restaurants in NYC. The German dishes are authentic and delicious and the beer is amazing. The service is also top notch. Sadly, they use Yelp for reservations (which is the most corrupt tech company out there and forces you to install their app on your phone) and dont always answer the phone, and Im still waiting for a reply to the email I sent them two months ago. That would all be fine if they didnt essentially require a reservation.

    Bierhaus NYC is a great place to watch a soccer match, especially if youre a fan of Bayern Munich. The atmosphere is electric when the team is playing, and the food and beer are top-notch. I recently went to Bierhaus to watch Bayern Munich play in the Champions League, and I had a fantastic time. The crowd was cheering and singing, and the atmosphere was really festive. The food was also delicious, and I especially enjoyed the sausages and the pretzels. The beer selection was also great, and I tried a few new beers that I really enjoyed. Overall, I had a great time at Bierhaus NYC, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone whos looking for a fun and lively place to watch a soccer match.Here are some specific details about my experience:The atmosphere was electric.

  • Review 98 (2023-05-22 - Rating: 5)

    Wow, this place is fantastisch! I hadnt even heard of it and we happened upon it for a quick dinner before a Yankees game. Everything is on the second floor, so youll need to walk up a flight of stairs to be greeted by the Dirndl-clad hostess. The whole place is basically a big Bierhall with German-style seating (i.e. long wooden tables with benches) and a ton of themed decor. Even the music is what true German Bierhalls play, so they knew their stuff. Theres an outdoor balcony overlooking 3rd avenue which is very neat and a corner for bands when they have live music, which I believe happens every week! We ordered a pretzel to start and a couple of schnitzels for entrees. The service was all extremely friendly and fast and the food was of course delicious, so I was sad we didnt have time for dessert before rushing off for the game. I cant wait to come back here with a group of friends, so be sure to look up if you ever pass by on 3rd and you just might see me waving from the balcony!

    Landed here on the first day of Oktoberfest. The bier tasted like it was bottled locally, not from Munich. It tased different.

    Good service.I have been here a few times and each time has been a blast. Peppy atmosphere and live music every time we go. Great for group events because they take reservations. I suggest requesting a table away from the band, it can get a little too loud for conversations (a few liters of beer and some shot-skis usually help).Food highlights have been: the french fries, carrot cake.

    A unique place to hear German polka and some German pop songs. BeerMaids were nice. It’s communal seating so don’t expect to have much. Patrons were at least nice. The people on our table were there for the game and just wanted to have a good time. Not an ideal place for a date. Definitely a place for a group of friends to have drinks and watch games or just experience something close to a German beer hall. Not a beer drinker, no problem, they make decent cocktails.

    Its great if you are a fan of German cuisine and German beers. If thats what you into, then this the place for you. The menu relies heavily on German words so I find a bit hard to order. Prices are decent (approx. $15 for a burger). Also, the atmosphere is good and the staff is very helpful and very nice.

My friend got a Hefe Weizen beer which was really tasty and I got some cherry liquor which was also delicious. The food also is super good. I had the pretzel (4/5) and the bratwurst and curry (5/5). The fries were cooked to perfection and the bratwurst was tender and packed full of flavor. The curry was also complex and added super well to the dish.

Live music on a Friday night, a full house, and a tasty mix of (all light, German style) beer. The pretzel & wurst combo wasnt a ton of food, but enough to make us a bit thirstier for more beer.

    Went for brunch. Selection was decent. There was no wait or people really during that time of day. The food was delicious but one of our water cups were leaky. They brought us a new one pretty quickly. There is also outdoor balcony seating and a separate smoking area. The only thing is that this place is a steep flight of steps up. Leaving seems like it would be a nightmare while intoxicated.
