I was in town visiting my fiancee's old stomping grounds, and we stumbled on this place.
I got the Sauerbraten and I'm still unsure if I liked it. It was like nothing I'd had before so was unique in that way. Just not sure if I like German food or not. I think I liked it. My fiancee and her father had some other dishes which they were quite pleased with, but the joy was the music. We were there on a Saturday night and there was an accordion band in the front singing their hearts out. They even sang Sweet Caroline, which being a Boston native I had to sing along with. and yet, there was a room full of Pittsburghers singing along! It was a blast.
They also had a special where if you ordered a liter of beer, you got to keep the mug, so I'll always have a memento of Hofbrauhaus in the form of an enormous mug.
