Wonderful neighborhood spot. When friends told me about a new German/Italian restaurant in the Lincoln Square neighborhood, I must admit that I was a little skeptical. I figured the restaurant was facing an identity crisis, but after having dinner there recently I realized I couldn’t be more wrong. We came in on a Saturday with a group of 4. It was pretty crowded so I would suggest to make a reservation on a weekend night. The hostess invited us to sit at the bar until our table was ready. We each had a drink and both bartenders were extremely friendly and attentive. After our table was ready we sat down and our sever was prompt to our table to greet us. Mind you that the restaurant was full, but you couldn’t tell by our server as she was extremely patient with our table as I had a lot of questions about the German/Italian menu. Our table started with a couple appetizers. We had an antipasto platter that was full of assorted vegetables and meats and also a Pear and Gorgonzola salad. Both were absolutely delicious and not too filling although the portion was very generous. For my entree I had the Bavarian Pork shank which I have not stopped talking about for the last week and a half. It was a huge piece of meat that was cooked to perfection, crunchy on the outside and moist and juicy on the inside. It was accompanied with dumplings in gravy and asparagus. My date went the Italian route and had a spaghetti carbonara which she claimed was the best she ever had. One of our friends got a pizza topped with arugula, prosciutto and tomatoes and looked absolutely delicious and our other friend got a Rainbow Trout that was a special for the night and he couldn’t stop raving about it. I know I’m rambling now, but I absolutely recommend this hidden gem. Wonderful food great service and very moderately priced for the portion and quality of food. Cannot wait to dine there again!
Excellent German cuisine. The best Schweinhaxen I’ve had in the USA. Arancini appetizer to die for – what deep fried mozzarella wishes it could be. Lovely decor. Great service. Moderate price.
