My wife and I and our two son have for years gone to Haus Murphy for Christmas Eve dinner. We all have lived in Germany for an extended time and a German dinner for our family and our son's wive and girlfriend so a Christmas eve German dinner has become a tradition. The year before last the woman who runs the place didn't treat us very well (a party of 6). We tried again last year and they treated us even more shamefully. We all decided that our experience with Haus Murphy has come to an end. It's a shame but each time, the woman has pushed us impatiently to finish and we'd made reservations for 7:00 but none the less the lady did everything but put our order in a box and shove us out the door. Even something as simple as bread with dinner was with held.
Perhaps any other time of the year but not on Christmas eve. If they don't want customers on the 24th, they should just close for the day.
