    Booked reservations for my moms 80th birthday and they put us in one of the back rooms! It was such a great space for the family to talk and laugh and open presents. Mom had the 18oz special ribeye and she ate the whole thing! Food was good and ambiance was the best. María was our server and she was great! Looking forward to returning again soon!

    Took my girlfriend last night for Valentine’s Day and the overall experience was great. We had a reservation and got sat down with minimal wait time. All the staff who helped us were wonderful and the food was great! My bone-in ribeye was tender and cooked perfectly and my girlfriend’s pasta was as delicious. Thank you for making our special night that much better!! We will definitely return in the future!!

    Always a good place, no matter the occasion or event, for truly authentic properly prepared delicious German Bavarian style food and beer. Part of the restaurant feels as if you are in a country home, one part feels like you are in a hunting lodge, yet when you first walk in, it's like stepping into a typical German bar warm and cozy. It was Valentines day and the service was very attentive despite it being busy. The pacing was relaxed but not slow and all the dishes were beautifully presented. It's one of the few nicer places that is also family friendly.

    We had a 12:45 reservation on Valentine’s Day . We arrived on time and our table was available. Something to remember that even if the restaurant is full there is usually a seat at the kitchen area facing the kitchen. We had classic Wiener Schnitzel with potato salad and Apple Strudel. Food was excellent. We always enjoying going to this restaurant in downtown Campbell. Recommend you make a reservation.
