Great atmosphere, great food, great place!!!

If you haven't eaten here, you don't know what you are missing!!!

The restaurant is a very unique family owned restaurant, which used to be in Black Hawk, and the owner is from Germany. The service is great, and the price is right for the wonderful food you get! The dinner atmosphere is very romantic, and the lunch specials are at a great price; they are just the same as any other restaurant in town, but you get an exceptional dinning experience and delicious food that you won't find anywhere else. If youre a beer lover, I highly reccomend the Octoberfest, which goes great with the Elk Ragu and a bowl of the Oxtail soup!

• Pros: BEST FOOD IN TOWN!!!

DO NOT EAT THERE!! We ate a late lunch there today, I had always wanted to stop there since I was a child and that was a bad decision! We waited by the door to be seated for 10 min before any one even acknowledged us being there. We were seated in a booth that was right from the 70's and Im sure hadn't been cleaned since then. The place has a musty/ mildewy smell that makes you real hungry... We were given a bread bowl that had bread I'm sure was delivered by Wounder Bread. At this point we had drinks on our table so we felt committed to stay. Our food showed up 35-45 min after we ordered it and was wayyy over cooked. We wanted to tell the waiter but he was MIA for the next 45MIN!! We couldn't even find someone else that worked there to give us our check! We will never go back again! McDonalds is 10 times better!

• Pros: Looks kind of nice from the road and good mints by the door
• Cons: 1970 decor, slow and I mean slooow service, smells

Overrated

Missed the food I ate as a kid in germany. Thought I'd try this place out, and while it was fairly enjoyable, and the atmosphere was interesting enough, I didn't care for the place.

Weinerschnitzel wasn't as good as what I can make at home...a bit flavorless. Oxtail soup was not very stout. The cabbage dishes were great. Bread basket was nice. Service slow. Looooooooong wait for a table. Number of bathrooms inadequate; had to wait 20 minutes to get in, and had to go downstairs, which wasn't "accessible". Had to go to the concierge to get my ticket. Glasses weren't refilled with drink....

Not impressed at all.

• Pros: ambiance
• Cons: disappointing service, taste not that great
