Always have great food and service. Reubens are the best!

This place features authentic German foods with a slight midwestern accent on the flavours. The serving sizes are intense; bring a lot of hunger, or friends.I thought this was a mom and pop joint, but it turns out they have several locations around the cities. It still felt very local, mom and pop feeling. They have a nice beer selection, including recent Octoberfest winners. The bathrooms have to be seen to believed, the urinals are beer kegs. Ladies sneak into the men's and take a peak.They also feature an arcade. You don't see those much anymore.I ordered the sampler meal, "A Taste of Deutchland," a little bit of everything. I wanted to try the potato salad and the dessert menu, but I was way too full.I highly recommend bringing friends or family, this is a great place for serious beer drinkers and kids too.

The food NEVER disappoints. Jim and Jeannie are close to the best humans I've met. I hope the friends Ive met here will be friends for a ridiculously long time

Come in and relax while getting a bite to eat. Large portions. Reasonable prices. Nathan was our server who kept our drinks full without being annoying

This place claims to be German but all the interior decor (including city skyline pictures) are all American. When I walked in, I just stood for like 3 minutes trying to figure out how to order. I finally found someone who looked like a waitress and asked them for a menu. They were literally staring at me the whole time. The bartender ended up taking my order. He was a little friendlier but still didn't even attempt to engage in any conversation (its not like the place was crowded - 3 people at the bar table and two groups playing card games at the tables). The bartender ended up breaking up the card game folks because they were sitting there for ages without buying anything. Also, the exterior of the building reeked of cigarette smoke.Food was ok. I got the Taste of Deutschland. Only flavors were acid, salt and umami. Red cabbage, spatzel, toast, gravy, sauerkraut, mettwurst and schnitzel were good. Sauerbraten was weirdly dry. Schweinshaxen was mostly just bone and skin.Also, the website doesn't work. If I was desperately crazing German food and nothing else was open, I might come here. But it wasn't a great experience IMO.

I had the all-you-can-eat fish dinner and did not make my way around this establishment as it was fairly busy. I did not get a good look at the bar or the game area.The fish and the short, dark-haired waitress were excellent. The waitress I got was only redeemed by an understanding attitude and having brought my toddler's cookie with the bill. I repeatedly had trouble flagging her down while she gave her attention to the other tables who weren't even trying to get her attention.There were a few ok beers on tap, but if you like a dark, malty beer you're out of luck.

Ordered 2 different flavors of wings. Over cooked and dried crispy. Couldn't tell which flavor was which. No sauce even on the paper the wings were sitting on in the box.

Our first time here. Yummy French dip and bleu cheese burger with waffle fries!! Try the seasoned sour cream!! Friendly waitstaff, cozy atmosphere!

We really enjoy the food at other Bierstube locations like Oakdale, Hastings and Inver Grove Heights, but this location the food is very subpar. And this is unfortunate since it is the closest to our home. Too bad that we can't go here to eat anymore because of the inconsistent food quality.

I had and thoroughly enjoyed the German platter and cherry coke. The service was great too. Good dinner on a rainy day.
