- The Corcoran GroupJuly 19, 2013The most popular time of year to visit this spot is around the holiday season, as the Christmas decor is unbeatable. To warm yourself up, order the Gluhwein and the apple strudel.
- Graylyn RooseMarch 12, 2017The potato pancakes are to die for..you can't forget to start with those. Weißwurst is great..spatzle and schnitzel are even better. Great selection of German beer and food!
- Amber LockwoodDecember 18, 2014The place gets so packed during the holidays, try to snag a reservation so you have some elbow room. Split the potato pancakes, the portions are huge!
- Snooty WaiterNovember 29, 2011I love coming here at least once during the Christmas season. If you don't feel 1000% more x-massy when you're here...well look in the mirror at the bar...cause you're prob green n fuzzy...grinch!
- Elyse EstradaOctober 3, 2012It's always Christmas in here. Even if it's not the actual season but you're feeling low on the yuletide spirit in your day to day, this place will definitely have you singing Mariah when you leave.
- Akshata KaliaJanuary 16, 2016I loved everything here! The Christmas decorations are beautiful. You HAVE to get the mulled wine - yummy. The mussels, potato pancakes, chicken schnitzel and the sausage were all good!
- Katie ConradDecember 20, 2018If you're going over the holidays make a reservation, even for lunch! The line is always out the door (for good reasons). Once you're inside grab a spiked apple cider and get ready to eat.
- Nevin ZisanDecember 8, 2014Great drink selection -- German beers, wine, and interesting specialty cocktails. I wasn't expecting the food to be anything spectacular..
- Kelsey✨December 16, 2018Make a reservation 2 months in advance if you want to secure a table (w/o the fuss) during the holiday season
- Gloria GJanuary 12, 2014order the paprika Schintzel, Mussels with Riesling Broth, and Potato Cakes w/apple sauce and sour cream. you cant go wrong!!! caramel martini is so so strong! Beware! Lol
- ZacharyDecember 20, 2014Waited for 1 hour outside (coffee shop across the street for a warm drink) and it took another hour to be seated but it was worth it! Warm wine, jäger schnitzel, schnapps, Christmas decorations!
- Abbie StevensonSeptember 13, 2017Awesome Christmas decorations, but for having fun decor the staff seems very serious & there's an elderly crowd at the bar. Swing by & take a picture in the decorations for fun! Then spend $ next door
- Ann BradshawJanuary 8, 2017Amazing Christmas decorations. Food was very good. Expensive, as one would expect in NYC. Would go again.
- DoubleDeuceJanuary 5, 2020Search out the dolls between October and March to let them observe your internal terror. Also, best for a drink and see the decor, the food is extremely overpriced.
- Tom JMarch 31, 2017It's all great! Can't go wrong. First time I had been here in 41 years. Awesome experience.
- Lou CarulliJanuary 4, 2018Amazing decor during holidays and great drinks. Food is typical German fairs that is way overpriced for what it is but large portions
- Yulia SukhanovaJune 5, 2019Apple pancake is making you dream of apfel strudel. Decorations are stunning. Feeling so Christmas. We came for breakfast time so there were no crowds of people and that's adorable!
- Harumi UDecember 30, 2014May be more known for its holiday decoration and cocktails but food isn't bad either though a bit expensive. Never seen sautéed schnitzel before - recommend trying jaeger schnitzel
- Tony XerriMarch 23, 2013Nice place. Way too damn hot. Cool off with a lager or five and try to spot the hidden Easter eggs. The King salmon was pretty good but rice was definitely way overcooked. Worth a visit!
- Michael WilhelmNovember 21, 2019It’s all about the decorations, but the Jagerschnitzel was pretty. We also enjoyed the strudel
- Spencer VairoJanuary 4, 2015The Christmas decor in here is so festive it's almost overwhelming. Enjoy a glass of the mulled wine and take in the dysplay
- Norman EllisDecember 23, 2016If you want to come here for dinner in Dec make a reservation in early November. Otherwise be prepared for a long long long wait in the cold.
- Truly impressive decor during holidays. Just go easy on the $14 mulled wines!
- Cathy WeschlerDecember 14, 2018The Christmas decorations are beautiful! The food and service, however, are unimpressive.
- Nicolette RomeroDecember 6, 2014Come here just to see the Xmas decorations. They are on steroids. Their mulled wine is amazing!
- Lana and Raul are the best. Been here for ages. Really great people.
- Buford BarnesMarch 31, 2021Be ready to pay too much for mediocre German food, but you're really paying for the spectacular Christmas decorations that are up from November through May.
- Theresa RoldanDecember 27, 2014Great eggnog and delicious food. I definitely don't regret the holiday wait! The festive decor alone is an experience
- Greg ValenskiJanuary 2, 2015Sausage platter was great especially with a haufbrau! The atmosphere is amazing
- Sal PalombizioDecember 4, 2014At this time of year, xmas, i looks like a trailer truck of xmas decor exploded in the place. Looks really nice. Worth a visit.
- Christine TaylorDecember 11, 2016Great decorations.. But they were pretty rude. Made us all order entrees to get a table and then made us move after an hour to seat someone else before we had time for an end of meal drink.
- Racky RossMay 24, 2015I really enjoyed the atmosphere here, and the food was delicious. Great surprise!
- Great place, great food. Making new friends. Can't ask for much more .
- Guy BannisterSeptember 15, 2015Hadn't been here in years. It looked the same and felt dated. But the food was delicious and I would recommend.
- Nat HarwardDecember 10, 2013Anything: "You’re not really here for the food; you’re here for the lavishly ornate, borderline-insane, totally delightful Christmas decorations." Read more
- Morgan 🍷March 8, 2012It looks like your mom's old box of Christmas ornaments threw up in here after a heavy night of drinking after a bad break up..... And I love it!
- Andrew D.January 1, 2015Christmas decorations are the only reason to be here. Take your photo and leave! Prices, food and service are ridiculous.
- Eric FMarch 7, 2015Classical music playing around closing time and the old timers were waltzing around. Good times.
- Caitlin StrandbergNovember 21, 2011Incredible atmosphere - looks like the bar is inside of Christmas Tree. Come for the photos and a drink.
- JauntedApril 26, 2010Ignore how dusty the gaudy interior is and tuck into some perfectly crispy potato pancakes. Lots of regulars here, and business travelers craving sauerkraut.
- Feven 🧿January 14, 2014cool atmosphere! looks like the inside of a very decorated xmas tree. FOOD: sucks, terribly. all "sausages" are literally oversized hotdogs they boil in water. def have had better german DRINKS: great
- Eb (Henry) GeffersJanuary 6, 2023Caution: This place is a ripoff. Gin tonic is $26. Whiskey is $35. Make sure to ask price before ordering drinks. Besides chrismas deco its a dump. Avoid
