    The food was okay, but ultimately the best thing we ate and the only thing we agreed we would order…read moreagain was the chocolate babka (highly recommend) which it states is shipped in from Brooklyn. The service was very slow, they forgot part of our order, and ultimately based on the reviews we had read, it was a let down. We went because it had great reviews for their pastrami, but the person who ordered it was very disappointed.

    Had lunch at Gunther's today. It was a rainy day and I enjoyed sitting in a cozy booth by a window,…read morehaving lunch while the rain came down. I got the open-faced roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy. The plate was gigantic and I ate the whole thing. It was pure comfort food. When I was a kid my grandmother used to take me out to lunch, and this was the sandwich I always ordered (anybody remember Lyon's restaurant?). The staff at Gunther's are so kind. When I arrived, one person explained how to order at the counter and held a booth for me (I'd been there before but forgot how that works). Another person came by several times while I was eating to give me a straw, and then napkins, and then a to-go cup for my drink. Everyone checked on me to make sure I was enjoying my food. The customer service was like what you'd expect at a fine dining establishment. The restaurant was busy at 1:30 pm on a holiday Monday, but was never loud and never felt crowded. I was grateful they didn't blast music from the ceiling like a lot of places do. Thank you, Gunther's, for your wonderful service and delicious food.

    It was easy to make a reservation through OpenTable on a Saturday evening. Service was outstanding…read morefrom the moment we arrived. Staff was attentive, friendly, and helpful, and even when we moved to the bar after dinner, the bartender was awesome. The place had a lot of seating available in multiple rooms, with lovely artworks throughout and a combination of exposed brick and wooden wall panels. And though we didn't come on a night with live music or entertainment, we absolutely enjoyed our experience here. To eat, we got the sausage combination platte, wiener schnitzel plate with potato salad, and jägerschnitzel dish. The portion sizes are quite large, and we were impressed by the taste and quality of each of these items. The sausages were so juicy and flavorful, two of them stood out but I didn't know which one was which. It wasn't too heavy, which I appreciated as well. The breaded pork cutlet was yummy, especially with the thick buttery white wine mushroom sauce, and the spätzle was cooked perfectly. I finished every single bite, and I'm typically not a big fan of pasta. That's how much I liked the dish. My bf wiped his plate clean too, with tender veal and german style potato salad. I liked how the soft drinks came in beer mug looking glasses, fitting for the theme. We also tried a couple different german schnaps before leaving, the jagertee and bärenjager, and both were really good.

    I have to start my review by saying how sorry I feel for all the people who come here and spend…read moretheir hard-earned money. I apologize on behalf of this place, and please don't judge European cuisine based on the kind of terrible food you get here. Nothing is authentic about preheated food that's supposed to come freshly out of the oven. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they just put some of it in the microwave. We arrived on a Saturday at 5:45 PM and the place was completely empty. The owner's first question was whether we had a reservation. That was the first red flag I should have noticed, but the red flags just kept coming. The food arrived suspiciously fast. We ordered a lot of dishes, so I was actually worried it wouldn't even fit on the table. The first thing I asked for, as a European, was bread. I asked if they could bring out plenty so I wouldn't have to keep asking for more. She brought 4 tiny pieces and said, "If you eat all of it, I'll bring more." Well, that didn't sit well with me. After the first bite, I immediately asked her to take it back because it was terrible. It tasted like minimum one-week-old dry, moldy bread. Then the manager came to the table and interrogated me about why I called the bread terrible. He claimed it was "authentic German bread" right after finding out I was European just minutes before. I even asked them to at least put it in the toaster, hoping that would improve it a little. After that, it felt like they kept harassing us. "Is everything okay?" Even the owner started yelling from the other side of the restaurant asking if everything was good. I'm only posting the pictures to show how much food we ordered -- and there wasn't a single dish that wasn't terrible. This is the type of food that's only enjoyable when it's fresh. Not a single dish tasted like it was cooked that day. Just think about how day-old reheated French fries taste -- terrible. That's exactly how we felt about the entire meal. The weirdest part came when we asked for to-go boxes. They didn't know we only planned to take the food home for my friend's dog. When they came back with the boxes and tried taking the plates away, my friend said, "Oh wait, I want to take that pork skin for my dog." The waitress replied that she could bring a smaller box for it, and I was honestly so close to saying, "Save yourself the trip -- all of this food is for the dog anyway. Just put it with the rest." But I decided not to be as rude and unprofessional as the staff was here. I don't think I even need to mention that we will never come back. I posted this mainly to warn my fellow Europeans not to come here, and to educate those who may not realize that nothing here is fresh. I'm saying all of this as a former restaurant owner in Europe, a former chef, and simply as someone who knows how food is supposed to taste.

    Live Bavarian music 2nd Thursday, 12:30-2:30. Great German…read morebier on tap. - 4.6/5: Potato pancakes with lox: they are definitely made in advanced and warmed up, but they are good. - 4.6: Kasse Spaetzle. Al dente. Consistent. - 4.6: The bratwurst in a pretzel bun is quote good. Much more flavorful than expected. - 3.5: The Napoleon, with chocolate, vanilla frosting, and cherry topping, is ok - 3.0: The chocolate torte is not worth the calories. - 2.2: Burnt almond cake. Not nearly as good as the one at Sugar Butter Flour.

    Don't even bother visiting. I try incredibly hard to avoid 1 star reviews unless I feel strong…read moreabout it. I should've used my instincts when I came in to this crowded unclean restaurant that this was the beginning of a terrible experience. Floors aren't swept, tables covered in food and dishes, people crowding the register. But like most adventurous people who respect the food industry, I get that staff can be backed up or some orders take longer to cook, or maybe there's just a large party dining in. I truly get it. I wanted to give this a chance as it seemed like a diamond in the rough due to the current review status. Boy was I so wrong. I waited for over an hour for a soup, salad and pork Schnitzel (still waiting as I type this review) . Staff did not give us any update, nor did they seem to remember what we ordered, no sense of urgency. What's the point of giving us a receipt number, or table placard with numbers if no one is following it, and there's a handful of people asking for a status update? It wasn't until we asked for a refund IF they haven't started with preparing our order did they actually care. Mind you now it's 30minutes before closing, they are still taking orders and they still haven't served others who are just as upset for not being served. Maybe it was a bad day, but it affected me and family enough to not consider coming back. Good luck to you Esther's Update: after 1hr 45min, They forgot our salad, the soup of the day was sub par Campbells soup, and their pork schnitzel was lackluster.
