My better half truly felt transported back to Germany. The menu is great, food very genuine. Would have taken more photos of the plates, but we ended up devouring it before remembering to do so. You will have to get your German on there yourselves, don't just take my word for it! Great selection of wine and beer as well!

I know most people come here for beer. I’m not a beer drinker, so let me tell you about the food. First, I waited way too long to try this place. I think I was worried I wasn’t cool enough or something (it’s a speakeasy behind a vape shop). But I finally went and I found what I believe is the best restaurant in Jacksonville. The music and vibe are great. It looks kind of like someone set up a bar and tiny restaurant in your German grandma’s dining room. You can tell that the entire staff, from the hostess at the very front of the house to the chef at the back,love the place, the food, each other, and their guests. And let me tell you about the food. I actually do have a German grandmother and I have been fortunate to visit Germany and Austria. This is the best pretzel and best schnitzel I have had in the United States. On my first visit I had the käsespätzle with truffle and it was so rich and comforting. Since then I have had the leberkäse and the Reuben. My husband gets the jägerschnitzel every time. The Rueben is great, but I am kind of obsessed with the leberkäse. It’s so simple but so delicious. And the potato pancakes are outstanding - puffy and crisp at the same time. The desserts…OMG. They had me at kirsche torte. Everyone has German Chocolate cake, which is not my thing. Kirsche torte - also called Black Forest cake - is where it’s at. Dark chocolate cake with whipped cream frosting and stuffed with cherries. On my most recent visit they had a new/seasonal strawberry cake and that was also outstanding. If you haven’t been, make a reservation and check it out ASAP.
