Attended the sausage and pepper day today which is my favorite! Was lucky to score some sausages to take home because they were limited. Even if the line looks long, don't worry it goes really quickly. Could not ask for a friendlier place with amazing food! They normally have salad with an amazing homemade dressing, but due to salad gate, they did not have it, which is totally understanding!

After many years of saying I would check out live horse racing here we finally did it. First, this…read moreplace definitely offers some free child friendly activities such as a petting zoo, pony rides and face painting, but I recommend leaving the kiddos at home. With small children, the beer tents, crowd and great local bands, it becomes a bit difficult to navigate. My husband and I were saying we would have a great time just the two of us. On this weekend all reserved seating was sold out but we easily got a spot at the fence for front row observation of the racing which was awesome. Parking is a struggle for live horse racing. All lots were full so we ended up parking at a random business about 5 blocks away. Food was nothing to rave about, I think this place could really benefit from adding some local food trucks. Overall, we had a great time and will be back!

Maggie and Tim are incredible--they greet you with such warmth and hospitality that it feels exactly like the moment a beloved family member finally walks through the door on Thanksgiving Day. Beyond the people, the location itself is a true oasis; the peaceful pond and the patio offer a perfect, serene escape for our veterans right here in Bellevue. If you are looking for a place that truly embodies community and acceptance, this is it. I'm so grateful for the kindness they show everyone who walks through their doors."

I've been a photographer at 2 weddings here over the last year. One had about 80 guests, the other…read morearound 200. I must say they do a great job with backdrops for the head table and first dance. My only note is that the group that was around 200, was still not at capacity and walking around in the room was a total nightmare. I could barely get around as the photographer, and the guests were dealing with the same. The round tables were cramped as well. I would highly suggest less than 150 people in this venue if you want to be able to move at all! Overall though, great experience. Never met anyone besides servers that worked there, no wedding planner or anything, which worked out but would have been good to have a contact person with the venue incase something was needed as the photographer.

I've been to the German American Society several times over the years for different types of events…read morefrom high school award banquets to a wedding reception to even a wrestling event. And honestly, that variety kind of says a lot about the place. The space itself feels like a classic beer hall, and yes, it's a bit dated...but in a way that adds to the charm rather than takes away from it. It's very distinctly German with all the nods to heritage, families, and places in Germany throughout the decor, but there's also this subtle American nostalgia layered in. It almost feels a little 70s/80s in spots, which somehow works. It's not sleek or modern, but it's also very clearly not trying to be. Food-wise, I'd call it solid but not standout. The sausages are juicy and flavorful, and I did notice the sauerkraut is much milder than what you typically get at the grocery store (not a bad thing, just different than expected). But the real reason to go isn't the food, it's the vibe. There's something about the place that feels genuine and rooted in tradition. I noticed the cornerstone says "by Germans, for Germans," and that stuck with me. As someone with strong German heritage on both sides of my family, it kind of hits in a way I didn't expect. It feels like a space that celebrates where people come from. Not a trendy spot, not a polished venue--but that's exactly the point. It's got character, history, and a sense of identity that you don't find everywhere.

This is a large gathering hall with two main rooms, a stage, and 2 bars (from what I could tell). It's a basic gathering hall, decorated in traditional German decor. Kind of a good timey, nothing fancy, feel to it. To be transparent, the food took over an hour from ordering it, but that was just more time for beer, music, and great company. I wasn't mad. They have a variety of events throughout the year, and I definitely recommend trying it out...no matter if you're German or not!
