“Overall I give this place a 5 star for great service, awesome tasting food and good pricing for the portion sizes.”
Ordered the lamb shank dinner special, which came with split pea soup, bread, and two sides (German-style noodles and fried potatoes); the lamb was large, tender, and enhanced by a mint sauce. Paired with a tall Hefeweizen. Parking near the small lot can be tough on busy nights.
