    The stuffing of the turkey dinner was a bit on the salty side.

    The restaurant was busy, a good thing, and a bit noisy. Service was good and food was good.

    Loved our lunch out tgrcspitvwith friends. Mustard crusted chicken remains our fav. A burger & fries hit the spot with one friend, chicken-bacon club with fries satisfied the other. I was pleased with substitution of coleslaw for the mashed potatoes. Service was totally cheerful and attentive. Another thumbs up for a great meal.

    Everything was excellent. And one reason our committee brings our guests there is that we know we can count on prompt service, as we always are on a strict time schedule.

    It’s wonderful to have a casual, medium priced restaurant nearby. A reliable place for solid tasty food and drinks. The bread is not as good as it used to be. We never received the birthday email about the usual offer and that was disappointing.

    We had a gift certificate to use which is why we went there. Went at 3:30 on a Sunday so it wasn’t busy. Waitress was nice but forgetful! Had to ask for a drink ( after she brought waters out), forgot that I asked for butter and most importantly forgot to put in our take out pizza to go towards the end of the meal, so we had to wait for that. Food was pretty good. Glad that we had a gift certificate!

    We were at Joe’s for Oktoberfest and it was as great as ever. I had the Brats over garlic mashed and my spouse the schnitzel. Their wonderful bread and dipping sauce started us out and the food came soon. I also had a wonderful mock tail which was kind of a ginger mule. Everything was just great. This is really our only opportunity for german food each year and it was worth the wait.
