Just went here for the first time with my family. This place is a good time, but if you don't like the idea of an Oktoberfest kind of place with everyone drinking giant liter beers, then don't go here.
The food was good and they really stick to the German types of food. I had a sampler of some of the wursts and pork roasts. It was prepared to my liking and tasty. There wasn't anything that would blow you away, but if you like German food it's a great place. There were even some things on the menu I've never had before that were fun to try like sauerkraut balls and fried pickles.
I enjoyed their beer as well. They have a different seasonal brew every month as well as their regulars. All were good and stick to the German brewing rules. For comparison though, I liked what I had here better than the similar beers one would find at Gordon Biersch. Oh yeah, having four people do a shot off a ski in front of the whole place is a good time.
We actually had our kids along and they did great. Plus the place is so damn loud they can make all the noise they want. The live music was also a neat experience.
Long story short, I'd like to come back without any kids and get hammered with the crowd there that I can guess gets rowdy as the night goes on.
