Settle in and order an appetizer while you make some entree decisions. The meatballs served in brown gravy are a great starter to share with the table.

The schnitzels are a specialty here. Choose between lemon schnitzel, Jagerschnitzel, or wiener schnitzel.

The other delicious dish they do well here is the handmade sausage. You’ll have a hard time deciding between the bratwurst, knackwurst, krainerwurst, or weisswurst. It’s served alongside house-made auerkraut and red cabbage.

What pairs perfectly with German food? German beer, of course! You’ll find two different beers on tap here every day.

Try to save some room for dessert, because it’s worth every calorie. The apple strudel is particularly decadent, but you’ll also want to get a good look at the cakes before you make your decision.
