I ate here 6 months ago when traveling through town and it was fantastic. I talked about it for…read moredays after and talked it up for days to the person I brought there tonight. Unfortunately it was very disappointing. We had potato pancakes for an appetizer. I wish I'd known they were deep fried rather than pan fried. They were thick, had nice flavor, but with being deep fried kinda greasy. I had the Warsaw platter again. The Polish sausage was so overcooked it was extremely dried out. The stuffed cabbage was not only dry and crumbly, but the cabbage wrapper was burned black in several places. The pierogi was overcooked and the outer part of it was hard and difficult to cut thru with a knife. I think they might have been deep fried too. The sauerkraut was so-so. I kept eating as I felt saying anything to our waitress would useless. She was not welcoming from the time we arrived and was actually quite distant. I don't know if she might be having a bad day, but it was very uncomfortable. I finally did say something about my meal and to my surprise she offered to get me something else or comp a dessert. Honestly I wanted neither. I just really wanted the same quality of the meal I had last time. My dining partner had stroganoff that she said was just okay, but the onions in it were so hard she couldn't even bite thru them. We did get comped a dessert, carrot cake, that was incredibly ice cold. I also was not charged for my meal. Another waitress asked about my experience and I told her the condition of the food. She said she hoped we'd be back again to give them another try, but it's really unlikely. How does almost everything on a variety plate turn out so off the mark? As it turned out the woman sitting at the table next me also had stuffed cabbage, which she said was very dry as well. She was a regular customer too. I grew up eating Polish food on the south side of Chicago, the daughter of an immigrant from there, and never in my life have I had ever a bad Polish meal, be it cooked at home or in a restaurant, but tonight was the night. I was told it was the same cook too, so who knows what happened. I likely won't return to find out.

Our waitress Isa was extremely helpful with the menu as it was our first time dining here. She warmly guided us through the options and gave us wonderful recommendations. Both sandwiches my husband and I ordered were delicious as the meat was nice, tender, the veggies on the sandwiches were fresh and crisp. Paired with the pretzel bun an absolutely killer combo! It is unfortunately rare in today's age to receive the exceptional service we did this night, which is what stood out the most during our time here. Our waitress Isa absolutely exceeded our expectations with her service by being not only knowledgeable about the menu but the history of The Maenneechor! A very bright young girl, warm and very attentive without being intrusive. accompanied with the delicious food the service was flawless.

Great place! We've been here a few times - both for breakfast and for dinner - and both are great!…read more Reuben was classic and solid. French onion soup had an amazing flavor. The Kasespatle was Mac and cheese for adults! This restaurant has a great vibe since it has the unique look of being an old house. Great outdoor patio and great service!

A fun atmosphere, delightful decor, great staff, and seriously delicious food at very good prices…read more And lots of beers, with a strong focus on German varieties. They offer $12 flights so you can try a few. Today we shared sauerkraut balls which are crispy out, soft and tangy in, complemented by a very tasty creamy mustard sauce. You get eight in the order and they are plenty big. My husband got the avocado bacon burger which was a delight for the eyes as well as the palate. It must have been a half pound and done to perfect medium as requested. I was in a bratwurst and potato pancake mood and after the app I was craving more sauerkraut, so I went for the King Ludwig. This is listed under Sandwiches but believe me, this is knife and fork, and you might also need a ladder. This dish could feed three people. Big thick brat sausage patties and huge potato pancakes. Delicious! Pro tip: ask for some sour cream and some of that mustard aioli. The beer cheese that it comes with is good but didn't seem to go with this particular dish. I dipped some chips in it instead. This was our second visit. Glad to finally return. It can be an adventure getting here, not the least of which is the parking nightmare of Oxford. The descent of the iron railed stairs is kind of fun. There is a handicapped access at the rear of the building, leading to an elevator, but it's designed for wheelchairs or scooters because the ramp is very long. For a person with mobility difficulty who can still walk, this would be a very long walk and they'd probably do better with the stairs. My husband has this issue and he concurred. The wait staff is young and enthusiastic, neatly attired, and so very kind and helpful. The German decor is delightful. What a treasure! Get down here, you'll be glad you did.

This restaurant is underground on High Street which makes it an interesting dive place. We went mid…read moremorning where I was told that it's a great place for breakfast. Make sure that you have an empty stomach since there is so much food. They have mimosas if that's the mood but otherwise a ton of good German food. There is a lot of seating for big groups and plenty of options to choose from.
