Went there tonight with a young friend ... was not expecting it to to be necessarily great but it was darned good ... got there a tad late -- few minutes after 8 pm -- knowing that they closed at 9 pm. Wondered based on earlier reviews if this might be a problem. It totally was not and the waitress could not have been nicer. Ended up ordering sauerbraten and my dining companion ordered rahm schnitzel ... my saurerbraten was quite good, but her rahm snitchel was superb. Very lightly breaded as it should be. The sauerkraut was excellent as was the purple cabbage ... We both had soup ... the split pea with sausage was excellent, the potato soup was okay. We were pretty full after we ate, but i did try a black forest torte and it was quite good. The nice thing about the black forest torte is that while it was sweeter than it would have been in Bavaria it was not sickeningly sweet like desserts too often are in the Cleveland area. There were no undue delays in getting food. My only complaint is that some items including the duck special, paprikash and goulash had already sold out.
Okay, of note the great beer list had the great Ommegang Duvel Rustica ... that alone would have made it worth the visit. Will definitely to back to this place.
