I was sat by the window in the cozy interior. Lots of tvs show sports games on the walls. A bit loud from everybody talking, and adequate service. The menu was oriented towards pork and potatoes. I started with the pretzel and beer-cheese sauce and kleine nurnberger bratwurstchen, or little sausages on sauerkraut. The sausages came out in 6 with a side of Dijon mustard. They were sized as breakfast sausage. A snappy bite revealed a juicy, oniony interior. The sauerkraut was mildly acidic and sweet, and soft. The pretzel standard in tast, like others you've had before, but was enlargened and airy and pillowy. The chewy pretzel was dipped in a thin cheese sauce, and you should dip your sausages into it as well. The sauce was bittered by the beer, and tasted as if its cheese had been aged: pungent! I ordered the jager schnitzel with spatzle, which was a pork cutlet covered in mushroom sauce on a bed of egg noodles. I got the small size, which I found to be great value and well portioned - not too much. The spatzle and the mushroom gravy were the real stars. Chewy, bity egg noodles were made into a variety of shapes and sizes, giving visual and textural interest. The schnitzel was thin, juicy, and remained crispy underneath the mushroom sauce - very "porky." The chunky mushroom sauce was like a gravy cooked with large cubed mushroom. The smaller variant, compared to the main, was one fewer cutlet and half the spatzle, and no side pickled salad. I believe this is the right choice, and it's a great value at half off the original's price. I borrowed my friend's salad which was an assortment of brined vegetables, including beets, carrots, and cucumber. The pickling was short as the vegetables were sweet and tart. The few and simple ingredients distinguished their own inherent flavors. The jager schnitzel dish was quite varied, and very good. Good atmosphere and simple food to be found here. I'd recommend anything with the very substantial spatzle. If small is an option, choose that

If you have ever been to an Octoberfest, you know that German cuisine does not have a lot of variety. However, they have done a lot with what they have to work with. The meatballs were fantastic. The options are excellent and the service was very good. My only complaint was that the spazel was a little gummy.

I’m from the bay and I was excited to eat here when I came back to visit with my German husband. I will say that living in Germany you definitely have delicious German food from all regions! So I was excited to bring him here since I heard it was good from friends in the past. I will say that the food isn’t really authentic German food, more Americanized which is disappointing because this place has so much potential. I got a chicken dish with mashed potatoes and I could tell and so could my husband that there were instant and no flavor at all. Also, the Kartoffelpuffer (German potato pancakes) were more like frozen hashbrowns with no eggs. It left my husband and I disappointed. Also the salad was a bit disappointed in the salad as well. I will say the service was amazing and our waiter was super nice and very friendly.

Parking: Offered parking lot is very tight, you have to backup to exit. It was convenient to park there (no street parking is available at all) but it was very stressful to get out of the parking area.
