Food was very good. We had the bratwurst and pork schnitzel - both excellently cooked and seasoned well. Reasonably priced which was a relief. Thoroughly recommend.

Food is always excellent! Service fast, efficient, & very friendly. Want a slight adjustment? No problem, just ask. Portions are perfect! Prices lower than expected. Extremely clean. Cordon Bleu is better than pretty much anywhere in this area, especially for the price. Liver is excellent. The horse steak is amazing. But if you really want a treat... try the sole. My word is it great! We have paid a lot more in this town & gotten far less. The owner knows his business & does it extremely well. We love this place. We bring our families & friends wherever they visit. The atmosphere is laid back & relaxed... great for children. Cold lunch menu.
