| - Weinerschnitzel and strudel goodness. period.
The place is a bit rustic with cute touches of old world 1970's decor, heavy on the wooden paneling and picturesque murals all over the walls. The nice waitresses remind me of the bavarian dancers during Oktoberfest. Our waitress was very direct about food suggestions.
The food was okay, some entrees were a bit better than others with the family style dinners. I really enjoyed the weinerschnitzel- crispy and tender with each bite. I wish i would have just gotten weinerschnitzel dish, instead. I felt a bit healthier eating the dish when I squeezed the lemon on top haha (suppose to cut a bit of the grease).
The sausage was good, not great- similar to any brat you can get from a ballpark or perhaps the grocery store. The potatoes were hearty, nothing to special, but nostalgic to getting breakfast from the corner diner on Sunday mornings with my dad.
I palette didn't really jump with the salad, the "chicken" noodle soup, saurkraut, or vegetables. The salad is a plain out of the bag salad with Italian dressing on top (even though is a Solvenian restaurant?). The "chicken" noodle soup is really just noodles with chicken stock or boullion cubes- similar to out of the packet soup mix. The saurkraut is like other kraut that I have tasted on my corned beef sandwiches- added a nice sour/vinegar touch to the meal that was needed to lighten the heavy meal. The vegetables were most likely canned or frozen and heated.
The homemade apple strudel was soo soo GOOD. It was probably one, if not the best apple strudel I have had. I love the little raisins with the apple-pie like filing. It was wasn't overly sweet (I got mine without powdered sugar) and just perfect to end the meal.
I was a bit disappointed with their beer selection as they only had a few light beers and not a single dark in stock. I believe they only had one or two dark beers on the menu, as well.
I would definitely go back for some schnitzel and strudel, but not much else.
