Would LOVE if they added a black bean/veggie burger option to the menu. Would definitely open up a lot of menu items for vegetarians. I’m sure the meat options are wonderful (smelled amazing)!
Great atmosphere and service! Will definitely be back for karaoke on Thursdays!
House made pretzel: as big as your head with an outside crunch and inside fluffy carb heaven. Perfect for dipping in the beer cheese or mustard! Definitely a must try.
Beer cheese: subtle beer flavor without being too much. Not as salty as most chain restaurants beer cheese with is a plus because with the house made pretzels it’s a perfect combination.
Bierbrat, Garlic Pepper, Polish, Curry & Grippos Housemade Sausages: all have great snap, juicy and thick. Polish was my personal favorite all around, savory and mixed perfect with the stone ground mustard and sauerkraut. Garlic pepper was a nice blend however I would’ve preferred a bit more garlic in it. Bierbrat was good but my least favorite of the three, it didn’t have much of a flavor to it. Curry sausage was an interesting take on a sausage, I was intrigued by the option, it had a numeric blend and curry drizzle that if it was served with naan bread as a bun and a cream sauce it would’ve been perfect. The Grippos sausage (Grippos being the Cincinnati chip of choice) was underwhelming unfortunately. I didn’t know what to expect with this one, the flavor was there but texture wise it crumbled apart quite easily. I hope they don’t stop trying new combinations and I do believe there is great potential for a Grippos sausage if they can get the texture figured out.
Sauerkraut was your basic run of the mill sauerkraut that is a staple with any German delicacies.
Bacon slaw consists of warm shredded cabbage with bacon strips mixed in. Great flavor however for texture I would prefer crispier bacon in it. Had a vinegar taste that complimented and blended well with the sauerkraut.
Pierogis were delicious with about 6 on the plate covered in a cream sauce with crispy bacon bits and caramelized onions. Very good texture the filling was flavorful (for a pierogi) the onions and bacon definitely enhanced the dish.
Overall I would go back when in town.
A+ food: the schnitzel was perfectly crisped and cut /piled high vs. seeping out the edges of the sandwich. My husband had the house-made cranberry sausage and we both loved the cabbage (don’t inhale on the bite- the vinegar will make you cough!) And bacon “slaw” which was sweet and savory and RICH.
A+ vibe: we are out of towners and this place felt like a neighborhood bar, and we didn’t know the “rules” for finding a table (there are no rules– bench seating so make friends!) A sweet local gave us his bar seat, made recommendations, and other guests had a similar “everyone is welcome” vibe. The music for our night was a STELLAR high school crew from the local School of Rock– wildly good vocals, busy guitar and bass riffs and steady cohesion. They were polished and skilled and I hope like hell they keep making music together because WOW.
Will make a point to come.again. Will recommend abundantly to local friends. Wunderbar, you are really killing it.
Located in Covington just off of the 12th street exit, this fine establishment is refuge to those seeking yummy German cuisine, a tasty nightcap, or some easygoing performances.
I visited for a songwriter night, met some incredible people, and left with a full belly and a haply heart.
