Mary KuehJune 28, 2015The giant soft pretzel served with mustard is really good, especially with beer cheese. It really is giant, though, so plan on sharing--half a pretzel is big enough to be a whole meal or 2 by itself!Upvote3Downvote
Curtis HillerFebruary 15, 2015German beer is always great. Service was a bit inattentive at the bar, but I hear that's not common. Burger was great. Pork belly Ruben is a great idea, but over-smoked.Upvote1Downvote- Tasting TableJune 29, 2012Pair the Weihenstephaner Vitus, a complex and fruity wheat beer, with the butter-brushed pretzel and its accompanying obatzda, a crock of silky beer cheese: Read more

Brad SaxonAugust 18, 2014So many great food options with plenty of German beer to pair with it. You'll leave here full because you just can't stop.UpvoteDownvote
Jake SmithFebruary 9, 2013The potato pierogies are a delectable appetizer. The portion is probably only enough for two people. They glisten in photographs.

Dana JensenMay 5, 2015The giant pretzel was delicious, the staff pick wheat beer was fantastic the beer cheese soup was tasty. My salad, however, was very disappointing, as the figs were cooked to charcoal. Skip the salad.UpvoteDownvote
Derrick HeldtNovember 24, 2013The Steeler fans rent the place half of it on Sundays. They have nothing to do with Germany so beware if your looking for an authentic place try a different day!Upvote1Downvote
Theodore JacksonJanuary 11, 2014I loved the brunch plate with eggs, weisswurst, potato pancakes (apple butter!!), and toast!UpvoteDownvote- L KApril 18, 2015Fun bar! Giant delicious pretzels and liters of beer. The boots are 3 liters.UpvoteDownvote

Eddie RybarskiAugust 4, 2013Service was great. Pretzel was even better than expected. It came recommended and didn't disappoint.UpvoteDownvote
Bob DeGraffOctober 9, 2015Good service. Nice beer selection. Burger was good but extremely overcooked. Brisket sandwich had too much sauce and the smoked flavor was overpowering.UpvoteDownvote
Go for brunch! Pork belly benedict on pretzel bread is UNREAL!UpvoteDownvote
Food here is absolutely top notch. Not even in the same league as bar food. Waaaaay better. Absolutely good.
