Reviews
Rich, the owner, and his wife Jill were wonderful to talk with. Rich took time to share the rich history of the building and even showed us the space out back where they’re creating a Bier Garten. It was such a cool experience and made us feel more like family than customers.
The food is excellent. Last week I had the bratwurst and it was honestly the best I’ve ever had. And I have to say—I’ve never liked sauerkraut in my life… until now! The sauerkraut here has a slightly sweet flavor and for the first time ever I actually enjoyed it.
Amanda, the bartender, has taken great care of us both times we visited. She made me an Old Fashioned, and I’m very particular about them—she absolutely nailed it. They also have a great whiskey selection along with some excellent German beers.
Between the rustic charm, the history of the building in Old Economy Village, the great food and drinks, and the welcoming atmosphere, Mad Anthony’s is a place we would highly recommend. We’ll definitely be back. Maybe… We’ll become “regulars”. I should have taken more pictures.
The food was outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. Each dish was beautifully presented and cooked to perfection, with quality ingredients that truly stood out. It’s clear that care and consistency go into every plate that leaves the kitchen.
The atmosphere struck the perfect balance between comfortable and inviting. The space was clean, well-designed, and had a relaxed energy that made us want to linger and enjoy the moment rather than rush through the meal.
What truly sets this place apart is the ownership. It’s evident that the owners are deeply invested in both their guests and their team. Their passion, professionalism, and commitment to excellence create an experience that feels personal and authentic.
This is the kind of place you look forward to returning to—and confidently recommend to others. An absolute gem.
Our first visit was during their very first week open, and while the German beer selection was fantastic, service was understandably a bit slow (over an hour wait for a single appetizer). That said, the staff was incredibly apologetic, and we know how tough those early weeks can be — so we left with no hard feelings and fully planned to return once things settled in.
We came back yesterday and sat at the bar, and what a difference! We ordered an appetizer, two entrées, and dessert, and never waited more than 20 minutes between courses. Everything was absolutely delicious. The food tasted traditional and comforting — like something Grandma would make. The hot mulled wine was the perfect pairing with dessert, and the beer selection is still top-notch.
Shoutout to Ryan, the bartender, who was fun to chat with and made the experience even better. The improvements in service were clear, and it’s great to see how well things are coming together. Keep up the great work — we’ll definitely be back!
First visit (w/2 others so we could order different things & taste) – the jagerschnitzel, spaetzle, potato pancakes, the warm potato salad were perfect. I don’t normally like sauerkraut but I absolutely love theirs! Pretzel was your standard, their spicy brown mustard was my fav but the ones that tried the beer cheese said it needed more beer & was too much like queso. The bursts were so good too! Nice selection of German & craft beers. Loved the whole vibe & can’t wait for warm weather to try the beer garden seating.
Second visit (lunch to go) – had the Mad Anthony club with fries. Best sandwich I’ve had in ages!
Loving this place! Add some more German staples & desserts, please! Would love to see a charcuterie board with meats, cheeses, pickles, radishes, breads & mustard, plus dishes like rouladen, sauerbraten, strudel & Berliners.
