"The food was amazing. Everything tasted so good. The servings are large and we all took some home in boxes for later. Everything was plated beautifully. The kitchen did a wonderful job.The rest of the staff, I didn't feel great about it. Maybe it's because there was a football game on? It's also Oktoberfest weekend and it's a German restaurant. I'm not sure. We were seated and a server came by to explain that the menu is all online. We took a while looking at our phones to all figure out what we wanted, and then waited, and waited, and waited for a server to come take our order.We were given water and I drank some, then noticed debris at the bottom of my glass so I set it down towards the end of the table so it could be grabbed easily. It never got taken, asked about, or even attempted to get refilled for the almost 2 hours we were there so I just didn't end up drinking any water. I had a light Kolsh that was good so it didn't bother me too much since I still had something to drink.Before our food came, I mentioned we had grabbed table that hadn't been wiped down when we got there since it was one of the only ones open. I asked if I could have a rag to wipe it down really quickly and was told yes.We never got anything to wipe the table down and then we got our food so it would have been too much of a hassle at the point anyways.We ate our food and talked. Everything was wonderful. There was a football game on that I didn't care for so it was a loud the couple times there was a touchdown or someone fumbled or something. Once we finished eating, we all sat waiting for a long time again. I finally asked if I should go get someone since we had been talking about getting boxes for ~20 minutes. My friend got up to go ask someone.They brought us boxes and we ordered dessert. We were finally able to let someone know about the water glass. I said I didn't want any water now but there was stuff in the bottom of my glass. Someone came back with a pitcher and tried to pour more water into the dirty glass to refill it. We managed to stop him and he had another clean glass with him so I finally got some water which was nice since it was pretty hot out today.The food was amazing. Maybe it was an off day between the game and Oktoberfest things happening. I'm not sure. I definitely want to go back for a special occasion again since it's a bit pricey.Parking: They have a very very small lots that fits about 6 cars so it was full. It was around the evening (4:30pm) and we managed to find some hour long street parking where the hour restriction ends at 5pm"
