Best German Food in Chicago Area - Excellent Beer List
by kseecs at Citysearch
A great place for any lover of true craft beer; domestic micros, belgians, germans, and more. Extensive tap list and tons of bottles with a constantly updated web based beer list and newsletter that keeps you updated on what is new, what is available, and what is coming soon. Amazing beercentric restaurant with very good German and Bohemian food. Everything is fresh and high quality, the schnitzels are solid and always well done and the kassler rippchen is a personal favorite, but you can not go to far wrong with any of the authentic choices. Service is usually friendly and well informed but they can get busy. If you want a quieter experience ask to sit far from the bar area. A true gem.
- Pros: Beer Selection, Authentic German Food
- Cons: Very few.

Disappointed

Except for the beer the food was substandard for a good German restaurant. The Bavarian Roladen was dryed out. The Wiener Schnitzel was oily. The desserts were bland. We were generally disappointed.
- Pros: Lots of good beer
- Cons: disappointing food, average service, noisy
