"After we had taken some fruit from the peasant market right in front of us, we saw the high ratings for this place and gave him an attempt. The beer was good, but we regret the food. If you like to drown food in sauce, you like it. We ordered their most popular items, thought sales would be good. Overall, the food was too heavy, dripping with sugary, oily sauces, so you could not really see or taste the meat. The fried food was so oily and greasy, the coating slipped off directly. We had to double check, there was no mistake with the all spicy Bretzel bc they saw as simple Mini Baguettes, type like the free Olive Garden reels (has not had to one in 20 years, so not sure if they were still) but wash with a pastry silk. Service was not available. Since it was empty, except for another table in the front, and we also had several bags of peaches and apricots (which we let them know), we asked ourselves why we had a tiny table for two all on the back where servers chat and folding napkins. The size of the table was large enough if you had only beer and a small starter. Right next to us were several large four people tables and stands, of which everyone would have been comfortable as we ordered late lunch / fast dinner. When we were almost finished, we realized that they allow non-service dogs in the interior (as someone who loves animals and took care of several different pets during my life) what we think is unsanitary."
