The interior is one of a traditional German village eating establishment, but being located close to an American base, it make concessions such a menu with pictures and English to make it easier to order. The "Stammtisch" (German for "regulars' table) is not a table, but a section of bar. Great traditional fare with accompanying beer or wine. I dined on the traditional schnitzel and it did not disappoint as it was accompanied by a great local beer. Keep room for dessert and some schnapps to help with the digestion. NOTE: it is a smallish establishment so you need to make reservations to dine, it is well worth the effort to make a reservation and dine. Guten appetite!

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.

The service can be a bit slow, since it is just one person up front, but the food is lovely and the prices aren't bad.

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!

Ramstein village is a small village in between Landsthul and Meisembach and is on the Meisembach side of the village. There was a festival on-going at the time as well so the roads were blocked but we drive around them anyway. There used to be a German bowling alley there as well. Now closed but the gasthaus is still there. Worth the effort to go. The pizza is good as well. Lots of carry out for pizza. Lots of phone orders coming in. Traffic was light and service was good.

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 ordering style here is line up and order at the counter, once that is done someone gives you a number and the food runner will bring the order according to the number you display not he table. A funny thing here is that they do not bring all the food at once and they do bring as it gets ready and released by the kitchen, that seems to be a common practice in the country. the prices here are pretty reasonable and the decor is pretty cool! I really loved that they actually have a water fountain inside the restaurant. The food I got here was pretty good. MUSHROOM SCHNITZEL - it came with a choice of side and the sides are pretty ok, not the best but ok. however the mushroom sauce is pretty amazing and I came back here for this dish many times.
