The only reason I gave them a star was the great service. Food was overcooked and expensive. Never again. What happened? This place used to be great.

Overpriced, mediocre food. Lukewarm bland side dishes, gristly meat, fake mashed potatoes. This is to German food what Olive Garden is to Italian, poor renditions to feed to the masses that don't know...
