Horrible food. The meat on the sauerbraten was dry, tasteless and tough as leather. Never again.
The place was extremely loud - like a glorified bar. It should be advertised as such and not as a dinner place. I wanted to leave but was offered the Biergarten which was much quieter and only 1 family in there. Our server, Michelle, was scary as heck. We ordered dinner (I was not a happy camper to begin with walking into this very loud place) and she asked if we wanted appetizers. we said no - I laughed and mentioned I was going to go for the dessert instead. She told me I would not have room for dessert in a very nasty way.
At the end of trying to eat shoe leather and the very thin steak my husband had (tasteless) I didn't want dessert. Just horrible.
And everyone reviewing that claims to have grown up on German food - no way. I've been to the best German restaurants in New York City and I have been to Germany numerous times. They don't serve the inedible food we were served at Hofbrauhaus.
