Editorial Review for Resi's Bierstube German Tavern – by Citysearch Editor

In Short
The well-shaded, 12-table beer garden is lovely in the warmer months; the interior of this German hall is nothing fancy, with 1970s wood paneling, veneer tables and bingo hall chairs. But the working-class regulars from the neighborhood--some originally from Germany--most appreciate the giant steins of great, fresh beer. While some bars stock 15 beers, Resi's has 15 Weiss (wheat) beers alone. In total, the selection includes more than 100 on tap and in bottles.

The Bierstube is a great place with great selections of beer and super delicious german food! Thier potato pancakes are delish and so is the cold german potato salad and hot saurkraut that comes with your meal. Great staff also, very friendly and courteous. Anyone who gives this place a bad review does not know anything about german food or german beer! Rock On Resi's...We Love You!

Pros: Everything

Cons: Nothing

This is a bar first and foremost, but the food is very good. You can't beat the German beer selection. Don't expect fancy dinining I see some of these other people talking about the place being cramped...it's a bar what do you want?? I don't think this guy MRJUSTICE has every eaten German food before. The German sausage is fantastic...BRATS, KNOCKWUSRT, WEISWUST . If you don't like bland German food don't order snitzel. You have to like German food... and if you don't don't order it and then bash it. Oh yeah the beer garden is great....nice and open, quiet, relaxing.

Pros: Beer, Sausage, Beer Garden

Cons: The inside is a small bar
