I lived in Germany for a year and can vouch the food is very legitimate and close to authentic. Drinks are awesome and priced very fair. The burger we ordered was humongous but really delicious. Service was awesome but a bit slow. Will definitely come back regularly.
I’ve always enjoyed coming here, the food is generally good and the environment is chill, good amount of space as well.
I went last night and our server (female) didn’t seem to thrilled or even like a “people person”.
Service was rushed then slow. She never checked to see how our food was. The roast beef was a pile of lukewarm mush, left uneaten.
Our table ordered 3 apps because the happy hour price ($2 off) but when our bills came, she said they don’t do that anymore. So why have happy hour signs posted all over and include it in the menu? Maybe tell us before or still honor it? Terrible customer service experience coming from someone who worked in the restaurant business for several years.
I had to ask for the burger happy hour price to be changed on the check $2.
Not a huge deal with the prices, but come on. People consider special pricing when choosing their meals/drinks.
I will say my Wild West Berlin burger was a 10/10 along with the fries.
**update 7/6 I came back and my experience was much better. The service was great, quick and attentive.
I got the same meal because it was so good the first time. It doesn’t disappoint.
Hands down the best German food in Des Moines! The hospitality is amazing…ask for Tracy, she’s great ! The food is absolutely delicious and authentic. The beer list is extensive and pretty great. In a nutshell this place is absolutely a place to visit and have a good time !!! Thank you Tracy !!
I often meet my friends here. The beer selection is nothing short of amazing! Food is also always delicious. It's difficult to find sauerbraten on a lot of menus in German restaurants in the states but they have it here and it's seriously so good that I have to order it every time!!!
What a place! HUGE BEER OPTIONS both in size and in variety. Tasted unbelievably good. Sat outside so I can’t say much about indoors but there was more than enough room inside and outside. comfy seating options outdoors and our waitress tended to us very well. Definitely a must visit place when in Des Moines. Get your German beer fix here!
This may look like a frat-style beer bar on a certain night, but don't shy away. It's got amazing food and a seriously impressive German beer list. We loved the sauerbraten and wurst plate. Patio was a nice vibe, we were even able to watch baseball while our there. Our server was crazy busy and dealing with a lot, but was still friendly and took great care of us. We've been talking about this food for weeks now, and it's almost a reason to go back to Des Moines.
Was a good experience overall! Food was absolutely amazing (I had the Sauerbraten and german chocolate cake) Service was a little slow but they were really busy for a Monday night.
