I will be the first to admit that I don't eat German food nearly as often as I eat other ethnic foods. So basically all I need is a good beer and some delicious sausage to make me happy. I got so much more than that at the Hansa brewery!! As a party of nine, we tried to begin the night at the big-name big box German beer place. The music was incredibly loud, and after an hour and a half of waiting for our promised table, we got in our cars and drove five minutes west to Hansa. We were greeted by the owner and immediately seated. The owner himself was our waiter for the evening. He shared his story about coming to America, and about opening the restaurant recently. The food was absolutely superb. I got the weinersnitzel with spatzel and carrots. The beer was excellent. It could not have been a better night. The atmosphere was friendly and quiet enough that you could actually have a conversation!
It won't be long until the word gets out in this place becomes crowded. With a beautiful decor on the inside and ample seating on the outside, easy on street parking, and fantastic food; Hansa brewery will be the place to be in the spring and summer of 2017. I can't say enough good things about it. Go there. Now.
