The other two either lacked flavor (mac and cheese) or were too damn good to be legally sold. But again I could taste the shortcuts and enough of them made me feel a little disappointed.
Good beer, great goulash soup, excellent schnitzel. The spaetzel was awesome. The only thing not awesome was the service.
Good German food but very limited menu. I try to avoid gluten and just about every dish had gluten. German Potato salad was very bland.
This is a quaint little place in a good location near the Library of Congress. I can't profess to be an expert on German cuisine, but I'd like to think I can tell when something is made fresh versus from a can or is made using shortcuts.
My girlfriend and I decided to just do appetizers as we had an important dinner later that day. We ordered the mac and cheese, schnitzel, soup, potato dumpling, and potato pancakes.
An amazing meal with excellent prices for the area. The food quality is amazing, their selection is authentic. Parking may be a challenge but not to worry, easy to get to from Union Station. Be sure to call and make reservations, they have a smaller dining room which might seat 30 to 40. Can't wait to get back there.
My favorite was the potato dumpling. Interestingly it had the texture of sticky rice but in potato form and was served in a pool of beef gravy. The gravy was very potent and tasted like stock broth from a jar, but very good!
Love this place. Good quality, nice atmosphere,. A family favorite for German food.
The pancakes were also good and are basically hash browns (luckily I like hash browns) and served with apple sauce and a pumpkin butter. Never had that combination before but it was extremely tasty.
