I don't know if there was a chef change recently, but to my mind, the food seems to taste even better lately. The servers recognize me most of the time because I am a regular which is cool. I try to order in German when possible but I see that all the servers know enough English (one or two speak incredible English) so any Americans who go should have no trouble ordering. I love their salad and soups. It is pumpkin soup season right now and their pumpkin soup is very, very good. My favorite dish on the menu is their Rahm Schnitzel. Very well seasoned and not at all bland. I go most often for lunch and they have an abbreviated lunch menu which changes and they will also let you order off the full menu which is nice. Not a lot of German restaurants let you order from the full menu during lunch hours. The only downside is that you can't pay in debit card. So have euros with you when you go.

My husband and I both ordered schnitzel - I got the peppercorn schnitzel (my husband's recommendation) and he got the schnitzel special. We both got the spatzle. The schnitzel was delicious.

The kitchen closed while we were eating dinner and we didn't know! So when we went to order dessert we were unable. That was def a real bummer. Despite that, we would definitely return!

I am torn about this place as I really do love the food and some of the old wait staff but alas,…read morethe staff cycles through and the new bunch are borderline horrible. I´ve been eating here for the better part of three years but the reality is that they have two levels of service, one for the Germans and another for the Americans. I could literally be the first one in to sit for lunch but somehow others get served first or my order gets intercepted and served to a later arriving German customer. I usually bite my tongue but once in a while I get too torqued up and vent to a staffer like today as I was invisible to my waitress for 15 plus minutes until I walked to the bar to order. It took about 60 minutes from the time I sat to the time I got served with the melt-down in between. Other coworkers have shared similar experiences so it it isn´t just me. Bottom line is that if you are in the very first wave of customers to sit and order, you will easily be in and out in less than 45 minutes, if you arrive after that, add another 15-30 minutes to your sitting time.

The portions are enormous, the menu is full of comfort‑food classics, and the atmosphere has that lively, slightly chaotic charm that makes it feel like a local staple. I went with a group, and everyone found something they loved. The schnitzel was crispy and well‑seasoned, and the burgers were surprisingly great for a place known for German‑style plates. Service was friendly and efficient even though the place was packed, which I really appreciated. If I had to nitpick, the wait times can get long during peak hours, and the sheer size of the portions can be a bit overwhelming if you're not prepared. But honestly, that's part of the Big Emma's experience; go hungry, go with friends, and expect leftovers. Overall, a fun, hearty spot that delivers exactly what it promises. I'd happily come back.
