I took my oldest son for Easter Brunch here and enjoyed a wonderful omelette and Germanic sausages alongside bottomless Mimosas and Bloody's; all at a nice price. Tip is auto-added @18%, something I do not believe in. I usually tip 20+, unless the services is less than very good. The staff was spartan with few waiters and a lack of serving station cooks- keeping the line a good 20 minute ordeal for relatively limited stations of egg, sausage, carvery and pastry/pretzel. As a result overall service was relatively slow, and waitstaff seemingly not motivated to hustle any more/less given their pricing model. All of the above forced us to take our time, which wasn't a horrible thing, but a bit frustrating as we waited in lines or, for service.

Nice beer selection but don't dine here if you want to eat healthy or light. Food was very heavy and salty. Perhaps to sell more beer!

Service and food were just okay. We were brought (and charged for) mustard that we didn't order. We didn't like one dish -- the pork meatballs were pink and had the texture of undercooked pork. The server explained that they were sous vide. Although this made them safe to eat, it didn't make them taste any better. They were projecting a movie above our heads which had a strobe effect on our table, not the best lighting to eat food under.

Had a really nice brunch experience. They have a brunch special that includes an alcoholic drink, entree and biscuit/donut for 22 bucks. A great deal and everything was so delicious.

The menu is slim and what I had, the pork roast, was really disappointing. It was slathere in some kind of celery chutney on a bed of rice. The pork roast was way overdone, dry and tasteless - unforgivable even for a German restaurant. The red wine I had to accompany was also not good, but that was my fault. Why would I order a German pinot noir? ( Oh, I know. It was because there were only two selections of red by the glass!) My companions had schnitzel and spaetzle and liked them well enough. They also liked their Gruner Veltliner and Radler beer. The waiter seemed abrupt and curt to me. Frankly I was disappointed in the whole show and wouldn't go back again. Too many other better places. (Got a feeling that being hipster should be good enough for everyone.: food should be considered incidental. Well, no.)

First time here...2:30PM on Saturday and no place to park...empty bank lot across street, Radler should strike a deal with them when the bank is not open...however, the place is spotless!...from tableware to the table and chair to the floor...also, linen napkins...my wife liked that...food (schnitzel) was average...price...eh!...
