    A GEM. If you have gotten this far on Yelp, quit analyzing. Just GO. Ignore the few VERY old bad reviews. In summary: this unknowingly retro cool place is and has been in the family forever and produces DELICIOUS home cooked food. BELIEVE THE GOOD REVIEWS OF FRIDAY FISH FRY! And if you are really lucky on Thursday or Saturday, the German food is worth it! It might take awhile because Mom (I think her name is Susie) will cook to order. That might give you time to enjoy a drink at the fantastic Formica bar - a serious nod to design of the era. REALLY.

    This family owned place serves one of the best fish fry's and German dinners (on Saturday) that I have had in a while.

    A little place worth finding in Pewaukee. First time diners, we tried a bit of many dishes, and…read morecan absolutely say this is traditional German food. The owner, Mat is doing his Oma and mom (Bo) proud, and I bet this place is especially in the summer when the food is not the same old options up and down the Pewaukee shoreline. With outdoor service and seating in warmer weather, and now a cute little indoor dining room, I am glad I took the time to stop for dinner. We tried the chicken and pork schnitzel, both bunless; the Curry Wurst; Pretzel bites; Spätzle; Oma's Potato Salad; and Sprecher's Root Beer, of course. However, beer is also on the menu, along with other options. The menu is not huge, but if you like or want to try true German dishes, stop in. The pricing is fair, and the owner is very nice. They use the all-natural Wisconsin Gold Tallow for cooking, and I just learned about it and how it makes dishes so tasty. And it is even great for facials!

I had several pork schnitzels with mushroom sauce and spatzel. Excellent taste and proportions. I enjoyed it immensely. They had some excellent German beer choice and I went with a Hefeweizen. Finally, the ambiance was quaint and very clean. Overall excellent experience and I'd highly recommend a visit.

    Wow! Perfection! My…read moresisters took me to this dollhouse of a restaurant for my birthday. From the outside in, the charm was everywhere. Cozy and sweet, every detail is thoughtfully planned. The bar area is adorable. Our bartender was so chatty and created perfect old fashions. The two dining rooms are equally adorable. The staff was fantastic and made us feel so welcome. The ladies at the hostess desk, the bartender and our server all offered warm hospitality. From appetizers to dessert, we loved everything. They offer classic supper club options as well as traditional German fare. House of Gerhard is not to be missed.

Low bar features comfy and accessible swivel chairs instead of bar stools. Very nice bartenders and top shelf beers and booze. There are no steps to navigate to enter restaurant itself (as well as the dining area), but there are two steps to climb to reach the small bar area. A railing would be helpful here. Dining is also a delight. A nice menu offers a variety of entrees and appetizers, German and American fare. Seafood is also very well prepared. Friendly waitstaff work hard and are very efficient. Water is refilled constantly. We had a schnitzel, scallops, house salad, and one awesome spinach salad topped by a perfect Strawberry Schaum Torte dessert on a recent busy Saturday. Can't wait to revisit to House of Gerhard when we return to Kenosha County.
