    Good hearty meals, large portions, but not as flavorful as meals I’ve had in Germany.

    Good menu with plenty of choices. The food was excellent and the service friendly and attentive. The portions are large enough to be split.

    Weisswurst weren’t hot when they arrived. Had to send them back for additional adjustments. No modification of bill from restaurant due to the inconvenience, which was disappointing. Otherwise a decent meal. Good German beer menu. Better choices on this street.

    Nice change on Laurel Street. Food was unexpected. Delicious! Had chicken sausage with a yummy sauce and mashed potatoes with vegetables on the side. German style! Kolch beer was refreshing. Nice addition to all the great restaurants San Carlos has to offer.

    Excellent service was provided by bartender Sidar and our waitress Bajar. We hope that we got their names right. The food was excellent. Pork schnitzel was very good as was the veal schnitzel, both perfectly fried and non-greasy. The included salad and potatoes also were very good. We only wish that spaetzel would have come with the schnitzels rather than potatoes. There is a wonderful German Riesling on their wine list if beer is not your choice. The Black Forest Cake dessert was a great final ending to a wonderful meal. Bravo!
