Very authentic German restaurant - reminded us of our three years in Germany. Everything we ordered was excellent: potato cakes, spaetzle, Jager schnitzel, schnitzel topped with mushrooms and swiss cheese, schweinebraten, brats. It was freshly prepared and arrived at the table hot and fresh. This is not a fast food restaurant, but it is worth the wait.

Stopped in while on an AMI weekend getaway and had a three top for dinner. A/C was cold and comfy! Yay! Ordered three different schnitzels and ALL were divine. Mine was the Holstein with fired eggs and anchovies. Also a salad and roasted potatoes. Had four different German brews and a Piesporter. Wheat, Schwarzbier, Radeberger Pils and Octoberfest. Ah yes.... More

You don't want to be in a hurry if you want to dine here. The food is worth the wait though. The single waitress is slow as molasses and needs to pick it up a bit. Maybe they need another person to help her out. They tend to talk way too much to friends at the bar and not get... More

Great little true German restaurant in the heart of Anna Maria Island. I love good beer and enjoyed touring Germany during my college days. Had a fantastic dinner and definitely enjoyed the fine collection of draft beers. Very friendly and attentive staff. Highly recommended.

If you order ahead they will roast a great duck. We are generally the only Non-German type in there, but the wait staff and owner are always nice to us. Wash it all down with some very good beer.

We didn't know what to expect, but this place is great. We thought the food was delicious and authentic german. Friday night is very busy and expect a wait, the regulars know to preorder the special on Thursday. We happened in on a Wednesday evening and had no trouble getting either a table or seat at the bar. The restaurant... More
