My rooming and I went for dinner, after purchasing a coupon online for dinner service, after showing Jon the server the coupon our service went from five star to one star. The food on the buffet was over cooked, and VERY bland!!!! I went in hungry and left hungry..... Jackie the hostess really made my night when I was leaving. I tipped both our Server Jon and Jackie equally, even though Jon did nothing for ur but talk to all of his other tables that didn't have a coupon. I will go back but not have Jon as my server.....
Review Source:Well, we decided to try Huller's at their new location. Huller's has never been our favorite compared to the other German restaurants around, but its the closest to us, and is OK. After tonight I'm thinking we would be better off to make the drive to one of the other ones.
When we went the didn't have a menu, only the buffet, which is fine with us since we prefer a variety. However, there wasn't much of a variety. We really liked their red cabbage, but that wasn't even an option. Most of the other food was constantly out. They apparently had plenty of potatoes though! They had potato dumplings, spatzle, German potato salad, potato pancakes and some other potato dish (I didn't even bother to look because it said potato on the sign and I was sick of seeing potatoes). There was no brochen out and the thin slices of bread they brought weren't very good. I am hoping they were just trying to deplete their inventory before being closed for Christmas, but honestly for $40, I'm not sure we will be going back any time soon!
We went to the new location tonight. Â The hostess seated us and asked if we'd like something to drink. Â I asked for a beer list. Â She said they didn't have one and she couldn't serve beer (she looked young). Â She offered to bring water instead and said our server would be with us soon.
We waited and the hostess returned with our waters. Â She said they only had the buffet as an option tonight. Â And we could start anytime and our server would be with us soon. Â
I didn't want to get my food until I knew I had a beer on the way... so I waited. Â and waited. Â Eventually the hostess came back and asked me if I knew what kind of beer I wanted. Â I said I'd like to know what they have on draft. Â She said she had no idea. Â I asked her if she knew who our server was and could perhaps send them over.
She said there were only two and they were very busy.
Eventually, our server arrived and when I asked what beers were available on draft she showed me a handwritten list.
After I got my beer, the rest of the experience was ok. Â The fresh cooked paprika schnitzel was good. Â As was the red cabbage and carrots. Â I did not enjoy the bread dumpling -very lemony. Â No one offered the potato pancakes this evening and my husband did not remember they come with the buffet until we were ready to leave. Â
My husband had the black forest cake and said it was great.
He said: Â Buffet was pretty good. I really liked the jagerschnitzel. The homemade sausage was good, though the one not labeled homemade was just average. Service pretty good. Â You might notice there are three check-ins here, there will never be a fourth. Â On our last trip, after we had paid the check, my wife noticed something floating in her soda. Â I won't say what it was, but she immediately barfed and we just can't go back. Â The manager was horrified and gave us a gift card as an apology, but the place is ruined for us now. Â All places have the odd food-quality issue and this is just one of those things, it just happened to us, is all, and was over the top. The schnitzel quality had gone way down too.... I don't want to scare you, but just provide this as a reminder to the owners to not forget beverage quality. Â Heck, I'm letting the 4 stars stand.
She said: This restaurant is located in a strip mall, but the food is so much better than what you would expect! Â The buffet is awesome, especially if you'd like to sample a variety of popular German foods. Â My favorite item here is the wiener schnitzel. Â It is pork, not veal, but is really well-done. Â The spaetzle is really good, as well.
I have followed Huller's Black Forest since its initial inception, coming during its baby months before it even had a bar, and up through its addition of a delli. Â I regularly had a moderately mature waitress (ie- not college aged or my generation) who provided outstanding service, recognised me every time, and when I came with my parents and we were not even her table, she would make sure we were taken care of and drop by to say hello. Â So I came to Hullers specifically hoping to give a poisitive review of a growing German restaurant with excellent service. Â I have a heavy heart- and have put off writing this review for weeks for that reason. Â Upon seeing a reviewer who commented on exactly the same problems I had this one visit (believe me, theirs was not a fluke, and apparently they revisitted multiple times before reviewing), I knew I could put my review off no longer.
The facts: I came on what I believe was a Monday evening 26 days ago, definitely a weeknight, and for a relatively slow night of the week they had a modest several tables with people. Â Compared to their earlier months, with a Saturday night being mostly empty tables, this was a nice change, but hardly crowded and easy for a single server to handle, much less multiple- I worked as a server once, and I could have had each table taken care of myself. Â I waited at least 5 minutes up front, walking to the deli area and back, before being noticed and seated. Â I then waited for my server. Â I walked to the buffet, then back. Â No server, no first greeting, no drink, no plate. Â Walked back to buffet and checked over the items one by one to see what they had, then back. Â Ten minutes at least passed without even an initial greeting. Â I was heartbroken- I wanted to give them at least a partly positive review, and hopefully more. Â But the quality of a restaurants food is completely meaningless with absolutely zero service to provide it.
I walked out, and made my Yelp check in - After I think perhaps one server might have been looking outside, finally having noticed, after I left, that I was there. Â I have had moderately good experiences here before, but it honestly has been hit or miss since Huller's opened. Â My last visit with my parents- I introduced them to it long ago, and have personally spread word to friends and people I have met about Hullers- was respectably decent. Â But when I plan a formal Yelp review, I come to try to catch the restaurant as it normally is- trying to avoid giving signals that would get me special treatment.
Summary- Â Huller's displayed zero service during my attempted review. Â I could not even review the food, because fifteen minutes of waiting, without even meeting your server, is unacceptable fir any restaurant, and I cannot play favourites. Â I plan to make a random re-visit in the future on a random day, and give them an opportunity for a new review. Â Sadly, I base my rating on the visit I made- and this restaurant is the second time in my history of Yelp reviews to ever give a one star rating. Â The other one star arose from being virtually stalked by a manager. Â If anyone wanted to give a three or four star review it would be me. Â I hope to be able to return and give a better review in the future: I love German food, and I have had only high hopes for this place. Â You really let me down, my friends- I am sorry.
Bravo, Huller's! Â My family has returned to this restaurant several times over the last 18 months, and I have noticed improvement with each visit. Â It's obvious to me that the manager is taking constructive feedback to heart.
I asked our server what they had changed the last time I was there. Â Before I get to that, our server was fantastic. Â I wish I could remember his name, because I'd like to give him props. Â All I can say is that he's relatively young, has blond hair, and just got engaged. Â He pronounced everything on the menu properly. Â Growing up with an Austrian dad, it has been very important to me that the words on the menu not be butchered. Â I love the German language, and it's such a delight to hear it spoken correctly. Â So, back to the latest improvements:
They've stopped leaving food on the buffet until the dish is empty before replenishing. Â They now replenish the food after a short period of time to maintain freshness. Â The schnitzel bar is fantastic, and I love that they are able to balance economy (by making only small pieces) with quality (by making sure you are getting a fresh schnitzel every time). Â They have also worked to create more consistent sauces. Â Before, three at our table might have ordered the jager schnitzel and gotten three slightly different sauces (almost as if three different chefs were working at the same time). Â Though I always thought it was delicious, consistency is important when running a business of service.
I also noticed that the salads were made with more hearty ingredients (none of that white-leaf iceberg...more green stuff, and a proper amount of tomatoes, croutons, etc.). Â My soup bowl was also a little bigger. Â The dinner rolls were excellent, as always.
My only disappointment is that the Weiner Schnitzel still isn't as good as my dad's. Â I think it would be better if the pork (I think they use pork instead of veal, which I like better anyway) was tenderized a little more, and not left to fry for quite as long. Â My dad manages to hammer out a nice thin schnitzel, but flash fries it so that the pork is still pink and moist, but cooked through, and not white. Â I also understand that this schnitzel is traditionally served with lemon, but my family loves to eat it with ligonberry jam...delicious! Â Just a suggestion.
Thanks for the continued improvements. Â I can't wait to return!
Short version:
Terrible service, unfriendly staff (including the manager), and so-so food. Â You're better off going to Julia's or if you're up for a drive, go to Waldhorn in Pineville.
Long version:
We visited this restaurant 3 times. Â The last 2 times, we were hoping that the previous visits were a fluke. Â But sadly, after 3 attempts it's time to give this place its due review.
I don't know how it's possible to have bad service at a buffet, but Huller's manages to pull it off. Â The servers' only job at the table is to take drink orders and deliver the drinks. Â You'd think this would be a quick event (maybe have the drinks at the table by the time we return from the buffet) but instead we typically don't get our first round until we're halfway through our meal.
On the last (and final) trip, we went there mid-afternoon and there were only about 3 tables of customers. Â Here's a timeline of our experience:
Walk in and wait since there's no hostess standing there.
3 minutes later she shows up, seats us, and tells us about the buffet
5 minutes later our server shows up to tell us she'll be right back (WTF?)
ANOTHER 3 minutes goes by and our server introduces herself and takes our drink orders, but tells us that she'll have to find the bartender. Â We went to the buffet and got our food, which took about 2 or 3 minutes.
We come back to the table but there are still no drinks; not even water.
2 or 3 minutes later we STILL hadn't seen our server again so I asked another server if they could check on our drinks. Â He could see that we were sitting there with plate-fulls of food and no drinks, but his response was "I'll see if I can find your server." Â I did't want my server at this point, I wanted something to drink! Â The "it's not my job" attitude is not good for business.
Finally, a few minutes later she returns with water and says "I just found the bartender, your beers are coming up."
It then took another 5 minutes before we got our drinks.
All in all, it took over 20 minutes from the time we walked in the door to get a beer. Â Keep in mind, this was mid-afternoon with very few customers.
Normally, I would have got the owner/manager by this point, but on my previous two trips I had run-ins with him and didn't feel like dealing with him again. Â He does not understand customer service at all, he's very brash, and he will basically tell you "you're wrong" if you complain about anything. Â Keep in mind, we had already visited this restaurant twice and had similarly bad experiences on both of those trips as well.
The quality of the food is so-so. Â There are some good things and some bad things, but overall it's sort-of "meh." Â I eat at German restaurants in every city I travel to (if they have one) and I've even had the real deal IN Germany. Â I agree with another reviewer that it's like the Applebee's of German food... maybe more like Golden Corral since it's a buffet and all. Â It's not horrible, but it's really not that great either.
It's a shame too. Â We were so excited to have a German restaurant right here in town. Â I love Julia's, but it's a bit of a drive for us. Â I love Waldhorn even more, but that's a further drive still. Â Huller's is so bad though, I'm willing to burn the gas if I want good German food.
EDIT: Â This is in response to the owner's reply to this review. Â I appreciate your apparent willingness to correct the issues, however I did talk to you in person on my first two visits and my comments still stand. Â The fact that you looked into my review history and used that to subtly question the fairness/quality of my review shows exactly what I was talking about. I gave the restaurant a second and even a third chance after my first experience, so I'm not just sniping you here. Â I will not give a bad review unless I feel fully confident that the restaurant wasn't just having a bad day. Â I wish you well and hope you take these comments to heart when training your staff.
My husband is of Austrian descent and we know good German food...Hullers Black Forest does an excellent job. From the simple but super fresh salads to the divinely done roast pork with spetzle; our meal was really great! I haven't had spetzle done that well out side of our kitchen in a long time! Our waitress Karen was marvelous even tho she was slammed with customers. We drove up from Augusta Ga, and I would come back anytime. The owners were really working hard to ensure that everyone had the German experience...well done Hullers!
Review Source:We decided to meet the Mom at Hullers for the Mothers Day buffet.
Everything we sampled from the buffet was tasty ,from the salad bar to the carving station.
The desserts we tried were just so-so,my black forest cake seemed frozen,the Wife's cheesecake also,but the Mom said her carrot cake was delish.
The Mom was pleased so Thanks to Huller's.
We will return again!
Oh,I would love to sample a German seafood dish on our next visit......
I Â for the first time while I was passing through Columbia... the only thing that impressed me was the service. There were only about 4 authentic German items on the menu. The rest were American items translated to German.
I decided to have the buffet, only to find that the food had obviously been on the buffet for hours. The dumplings were soggy, the gravies were gelling, and the "German" potato salad wasn't German. The taste of everything was overwhelmed with vinegar. The Black Forest Cherry Cake was no where near authentic, and had little bits of undissolved gelatin in the icing. The apple strudel was fairly decent, as were the potato pancakes. Having had authentic German while I was in the service, I determined that Hullers will NEVER get my service again.
Eh. Â I guess I got my hopes up when I planned to visit this place; I was expecting a Biergarten and got something closer to a German-themed Applebee's. Â Only 4 beers? Â Really? Â The food was okay (I ordered a steak from the German Specialties section of the menu and enjoyed it) but overall it lacked quality and authenticity. Â Pretty much everything came off as watered-down, from the tired (but nice) waitresses in costumey versions of traditional German dresses to the fake gravy served with the potato dumplings. Â I didn't hate it and if you prefer your foreign food to have that American-cafeteria flavor, you might like it. Â But I won't be going back.
Review Source:If you want good German food in this area, head to Julia's Stammtisch instead. It might be a short wait, but it's worth it! Especially the homemade cakes!
My husband and I went to Huller's Black Forest this past Saturday night to use a <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Frestaurant.com&s=c5fe485af4df376130bee54f875814d79c4d7913e1258123b1206d2bdbf4873b" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://restaurant.com</a> gift certificate. We were so disappointed. The potato pancakes with homemade applesauce had the consistency of being warmed up in the microwave and were served with what tasted like Mott's applesauce from a jar.
I had wiener schnitzel and my husband had jaeger schnitzel. Both were seasoned well, but so thin and overcooked that I had to fight to cut it. Spaetzle was actually very tasty, but came drowned in a brown gravy that didn't taste quite right. It was like someone used a box mix and tried to spice it up with a ton of garlic powder. Worst part was the hair I found cooked right into the crust of my pork cutlet.
Food was fair and service wasn't anything to brag about. Not a place I'd recommend or return to. Even with a gift certificate this meal cost us 40$.
I love the food! I lived in Germany for a few years and this place definitely brings back memories. I would have to say the only thing I didn't like was the fact that the traditional costumes worn by the waitresses were very revealing and maybe needed a PG-13 rating. Overall, I would go there and eat again.
Review Source:We love this place! Â It is authentic. Â You can order off the menu or go to the food bar. Â They also have a meat counter where you can choose your own meat and they cook it. Â
Real German food, real German beer, real German ambiance!
The for is really good and not heavy like other German restaurants I have been to.
This restaurant reminds me of my journeys to Europe and brings back special memories whenever I eat there.
The husband and kids love it too!
I don't know that I've ever been to a buffet that featured German food on a daily basis. (Waldhorn in Charlotte does it for Sunday brunch only.) Looking for new and different and not chains, I found Huller's and was most pleased!
I arrived before the dinner rush started, so I had a good table in the bar area that was close to the buffet line. Only a dozen different chafing dishes were set up, but they were all full of yumminess. Sauerbraten, Rouladen, Schweinebraten, sausages, red cabbage, baby carrots, mashed potatoes and others I can't remember. A salad bar had the usual shredded lettuce - skip that and snag some of the not-from-a-jar cold potato salad! And don't go easy on the spaetzel - it has a great hand made flavor and texture that is probably someone's grandmother's secret family recipe..
Something I have never seen before - a Schnitzel station! Schnitzel made to order. A slice of veal cutlet breaded and fried, topped with a choice of different sauces. I had the Alpine - a swiss cheese based cream sauce. But there were others and I can't remember them, sorry! All sounded great, but I was too stuffed.
Or at least, I thought I was stuffed. My waitress (wearing a traditional dirndl, of course) asked if I wanted dessert. Black forest cake, German chocolate cake, cheesecake, and she listed a few others before "apple strudel" echoed (the waitress said it and I said it right back). And somehow a scoop of vanilla ice cream fell out of the freezer and landed on the plate. A total accident, I am sure!
German beers available on draft and in bottles. When I was there, a special on Flensburger Weizen and Pilsner. With the neat flip-top bottles. Awesome.
It wasn't cheap, but it was a lot of really excellent flavor and texture. I was totally stuffed. I'll have to come back again and try some more!
I never had German food before so I didn't know what to expect when I came here. Â I had two choices to break my cherry for German restaurants in the area, this and Julia's Stamstich. Â We chose this because of you guys!
Food - The food was like home cooked goodness; meat and potatoes. Â All of the dishes at the buffet were delicious. Â The red cabbage was a new taste, it reminded me of a borscht I had a while ago. Â The spaetzle was a little different consistency of noodle than I am used to. Â When you bit into it, it had a more doughy texture. Â While I don't know what real spaetzle, my present company enjoyed it. Â I highly suggest the schnitzel, i think they pound it to make it really tender.
Service - We ate on a saturday night, so there was a nice crowd at black forest. Â We were seated immediately and service was warm and welcoming. Â The waitresses and waiters all dressed in lederhosen and dirndls. Â Our server came with her nice outfit and her Carolinian which added to the charm.
I'm not sure if the accordion player is there on every weekends, but I love the music he played. Â This guy was not appreciated enough! Â
I was unable to try the beer menu, but there's always next time.
The only issue I found was the pastry on the strudels weren't flaky
This is not really a review, more of a rant. Â I was excited to try this place. Â I don't know of any other German restaraunts in this area. Â I really wanted to try the buffet. Â When we arrived they said it was a 45 min. wait!! For a buffet?! Â We waited about 10 min and then I decided to take a peek at the buffet. Â I'm don't know much about German food so i didn't know what I was looking at, but everything looked the same to me. Plus I saw a few tables that were not occupied and one half of the place was empty. Â The hostess said that part of the place was not open. Â I decided that it wasn't worth the 45 min wait. I went across the parking lot to Carraba's instead. Â I will go back to try it, but only if it is a small wait.
Review Source:So disappointing. We should have left when we had to wait to be seated in a half empty restaurant on a Saturday at 6:30 pm. Instead, we foolishly allowed them to let us sit waiting to be waited on, longer to get drinks, then the waitress had to retake our order as the "kitchen lost the ticket." We spoke to the manager and were promised they would make it right. The food was bland and seemed like a TV dinner. We again waited to pay, I had to give the checks to the bar tender for processing, our waitress was out of commission.... They did comp our drinks, small consolation.... It's completely understandable that they are half empty (only folks who wanted the buffet seemed to be there) and next door places had waiting lines.
Review Source:Wow, this food was super good! Â They had a whole bunch of stuff I can't pronounce, much less spell, but it was totally worth it. Â A German Buffet? AMAZING! Â The beer selection is awesome too. Â We went on a Tuesday night and they have beer tastings from 5?-9p with half off German beers at the same time. Â Our server was this awesome lady from Germany. Â When she realized we were having trouble deciding on desserts (which come with the buffet) she let us sample all of them. Â They're all made in-house during the week and you can tell, because they are delicious.
I wish this place was closer to downtown so I could go more often, but then again the same excuse works in reverse. Â If it was closer, I'd be huge!
Either way, definitely worth the trip out to the Harbison area.
German Meat Fest AKA All Things Gravy AKA GOOD EATS!!
From the menu..."German Style Buffet $14.95 includes coffee, hot tea, dessert, soup, salads and about 10 of our most popular German specialties." This place is a must try!
The food here is fabulous! If you want to try something far away from the Columbia norm, you have to give Huller's a try. With one warning - go hungry, and wear loose fitting clothes! Â
I generally don't like buffets but this is one killer buffet! The food is served in small chaffing dishes which are constantly being replenished with fresh, piping hot, food. (you can order from the menu as well..) The restaurant is nice and clean and comfortable. Not too terribly big, but there are plenty of booths and tables. Looks like they may be installing a deli section as well? The service was very good, we had the sweetest, imported from the motherland, waitress. With her broken English she politely explained the many different kinds of foods they offer.
DA FOOD-
Everything was very good! They do have so many choices!
My favorites.. Â
Jager Schnitzel- A pork cutlet, breaded and fried, and served with a mushroom gravy!
Rouladen- Â A thin slice of roast beef rolled around dill pickles, bacon and onions!
Spaetzl- home made egg noodles sauteed in butter!
The cabbage was also very good- shredded, sweet, tart, and vinegary good!
They also have have a nice selection of German beer and wine- The dark beer, with a name a mile long, was akin to a Guinness- pretty good!
And... save room for desert- they have an apple strudel to die for. Taste like home made!
OH, almost forgot - Potato Pancakes- (Kartoffefpuffer mit Apfelmus) wow! what a mouth full, in more ways than one!- very good! we had to wait a little while for a table and a nice gentleman brought us some to try!
my respect for german food has gone up! Â well, actually, since i have never really had any german food before, i spose it's more accurate to say my respect baseline for german food has now been established! Â the germans (or at least those that would agree to let Huller's restaurant be their representative restaurant) are very fond of meat. Â and i am very VERY fond of meat. Â so i am very fond of people who are very fond of meat! Â i did give it 3 stars because as tasty as the food is, it's still bland to me when compared to sushi, thai, korean, vietnamese, etc. Â but, it's tasty and i am always up for non-traditional american food.
you ready for my review? Â here goes:
the restaurant/service: Â average. Â the restaurant was brimming over with decorations from the motherland, it had a sort of sports bar feel to it. Â you wouldnt remember it from the inside. Â but thats okay. Â the service was a little spotty. Â there was a buffet available, so i didnt wait for the waitress, but there was a couple with our group that actually wanted menus, and they had a bit of a wait just getting the menus. Â then they had some wait getting their foods. Â
the food and drinks: Â i know what you're thinking, german place = beers!! Â alas, i am not a beer nor wine drinker, so i cannot give you too much information on those. Â the beer glasses were very tall. Â dark beers with thick heads. Â does that sound good to you? Â i dunno if i'm describing it right... Â and someone else ordered red wine, but it came out chilled so they were a bit unhappy about that (oh the atrocity!!). Â i know i know, red wine shouldnt be cold, i learned that in argentina. Â but who knows, maybe thats how they do it in germany. Â roll with the punches! Â expect bad dishes (and drinks) when you try new things. Â even if they're old things in a new place. Â i did the buffet. Â i dont usually like buffets, but they are my preferred method of sampling if i'm in an a) casual southern restaurant and b) restaurant of an ethnicity i am unfamiliar with. Â is german food an ethnic food? Â meh, sure, why not? Â i've never had it before, and it's not hotdogs and catfish, so i cannot claim to have any knowledge of it. Â i had the buffet, and it was meatastic! Â unfortunately in this review i am unable to tell you what i had. Â the buffet had the names and a description, but my food haze rendered my illiterate. Â i'll just have to describe the items. Â there were 2 varieties of sliced beef roast with some sorta sauce. Â and there was a sliced pork roast with a sauce. Â okay, so they werent roasts necessarily, but thats the closest thing i can attribute them to. Â they were tender! Â there was a sliced beef roll with a pickle in the center.... odd. Â there was a beef patty that was like meatloaf. Â savory and juicy! Â i went back for second on that one. Â they had german noodles. spatzel? Â they were okay. Â rather thick, not quite uniform in shape, somewhat bland. Â they're probably a carrier for flavored foods. kinda like how rice, noodles, and bread are carriers for savory foods in other cultures. Â i didnt know to pair them up with anything and ate them by themselves. Â there was also delicately pickled red cabbage. Â i gotta give props to this place. Â i am not a fan of what some places call pickled foods, its too strong for me. Â i'm korean, and am used to vegetables being pickled, but it should be a little more than subtle, but not so intense it gives you that pucker face. Â this place knew the difference between pickling and soaking in vinegar. Â good pickled cabbage, good pickled beets. Â i had a potato ball-dumpling-thing. Â very very dense! Â somewhat flavorful. Â and some potato pancakes with applesauce. Â a nice combination i never would have thought went so well together. Â and, ah yes, the DESSERTS! Â i had a black forest cake that was oh so moist! (the only time i like to use that word) with something akin to buttercream icing. Â it was the best black forest cake i've had anywhere! Â i also stole a bite of my friends apple strudel. Â dense, good flavors. Â not too sweet, if you're into that sorta thing. Â and the cheesecake is very good too!
all-in-all not a bad dinner. Â the buffet was $14.95. Â the food is heavy, so you will not leave hungry! Â be sure to get the black forest cake and bring a heater for your red wine glass! Â so there!
The lunch hours are here! Â The lunch hours are here!
This is the first chance I've had to get to Huller's since they opened their doors in the old Sticky Fingers location on Columbiana; I work in Cola but live all the way out in Dalzell, so that made it tough to get in during their limited hours of operation. Â Their site mentioned lunch hours coming, and I was frequently calling to check on the status of those, so I was pleased to find them open today!
Walking to the door, my heart nearly skipped a beat when I saw a banner offering Warsteiner. Â Though I didn't partake, this was my favorite beer from my ventures/deployment through Europe as a young Marine. Â The ambiance was nice and, if you'd never been here previously, you wouldn't know it wasn't always a German restaurant. Â It even *smelled* Old World...
The butcher shop/deli is off to the left as you walk in the main entrance, but it's not quite ready.
I, naturally, went for the buffet, and piled my plate with sauerbraten, jager schnitzel, spaetzle, potato dumpling, red cabbage, sausage (don't remember what type, now) etc. Â Everything was as wonderful as I had hoped which, of course, led to seconds... Vati hatte hunger! Â Now, 2 hours later, it's really starting so set in and I'm wondering if I should have stopped after 1 plate...
Lunch buffet is $8.95, which I thought was very reasonable.
I was the only one in the restaurant for the duration of my stay, so I hope that turns around and business picks up. Â Not only was my meal enjoyable, but it is also a welcome change in scenery and lunch options.
