Super cute ambiance, I see you with lots of cool German food options. Definitely have the bartender put in work covering the whole restaurant.

Came here with a big group (7) for dinner on a Friday night during the off season in early March. We were seated right away upstairs which was extremely convenient. We ordered a few of the mojito pitchers for all of us which were really good. Each of us ordered appetizers for ourselves. I got the sunchoke dip and the rock potatoes. The sunchoke dip was interesting and thick in texture. The flavor was okay but maybe missing a little spice. The rock potatoes were AWESOME, really well seasoned and the dipping sauce complemented it really well. Super cute vibe and watching the karaoke at night was a fun way to end the night!!

3-4 Small raised tables and bar with upstairs karaoke spot at night. Great food, we went because of menu online and it did not disappoint! Fresh lemonade not too sweet and the biggest and best chicken sandwich I've had in a long time!! Very unique finish with the curry mustard. Mom had the Fish Fry and the potatoes were amazing and not overly salty. Server was patient and kind. Will definitely go back!

Love $1 oysters happy hours here. Great food choices for such a small place! When in town I try to hit this place twice a week

A cute hole in the wall. The drinks were great ! We were there for Karaoke which was a blast. Only flaw is it’s not very big inside so if you don’t enjoy sitting close to others or stepping aside so others can get by this may not be your scene. Also, parking was a bit tricky but it’s Portland so that’s to be expected. I’ll definitely go back as I want to try their food

Food wasn't crazy good, but good compared to the price (esp for Portland). Burger got good reviews at our table, but my BBQ rib sandwich was pretty bad. Ribs weren't cooked long enough so they were gristle-y. Atmosphere was nice, and it was very quiet for a Friday night in Portland on New Year's Eve weekend. Service was great.

Don't be fooled when you walk in. They have an entire upstairs (and it's got a cooler atmosphere up there). Had the Rib Sandwich, which was very good, and also the rock potatoes that come with it. I have no idea how they got those so crispy, but they were like potato chip chunks. Staff was super friendly. Had a cocktail, three dots and a dash, which was also very good. Now comes my favorite part...I was about to leave when happy hour started (3pm). Got 6 oysters for 6 bucks, plus that cocktail was $8 instead of $12. Left very satisfied and would recommend for sure.

Trash. I don't think this place is even trying to serve quality food and drinks but they sure are charging like they do.

Slowest bar service I have ever seen! It was like a Seinfeld episode. It took forever to take our order, which was a wine and a cocktail. Our bartender said she wasn't the bartender, but nobody else was either. The mixed drink took forever, as they had to make it downstairs. It's ironic, they are next door to one of the best restaurants in Portland, which I won't name. That'll all I got!

We enjoyed our drinks and salad seated outdoors. My Hip to Be Square mocktail wasn't too sweet or too bitter.

This place was super cute. We had happy hour oyster which were 10/10, very fresh and delicious. Their cocktails are amazing as well.Taking 1 star iff because seating was very uncomfortable.Overall this place is amazing and I totally recommend!

Wife and I stopped in on our honeymoon for karaoke. Staff was accommodating, bartender made a great martini. A bit sweltering though once it started to pack in as it's such a small space.
