    We've been meaning to stop in for diner and finally made it. I must say that walking in on a Saturday night the place was lively. We were immediately greeted by the hostess and we mentioned our reservations but that at we also were not ready to take a table but would be at the bar to get us started. The bar was crowded and we strode for our first cocktail. We started with a bourbon and brandy oldfashon but we've certainly had better. We switched over with a Tito and tonic and red wine. The wine list was short and surprisingly all the reds were from the US and only one Riesling from Germany with the balance from the US. Sitting down for dinner had nice ambiance and you could hear the pianist most of the evening. They start you off with quite a relish tray providing liver pate, cheese spread, a imataion crab salad, kidney bean salad, beet salad, and assortment of veggies. We then had salads which had a blend of lettuce. My dressing was a fair blue cheese. I also had the French onion soup which did have a very mild and nicely browned cheese topping. The soup was good with plenty of flavor along with a nice offering of browned onions. For dinner my wife had the 7oz fillet (only size offered) and I had the rack of lamb. Both dinner were enjoyed and the rack of lamb was four double cut pieces that were cooked perfectly. I would recommend this dish. Service was attentive and friendly and overall the patrons who seemed to be a regular clientele, were also friendly and we felt welcomed both at the bar and when seated for dinner. I can say this will be part of our rotation and on Sundays with the German lineup of food, you will find us there for a Sunday meal.

    One of the best meal experiences I've ever had. Great food, old school vibe, and I have a new aunt that hugged us all when we left. 10000/10, recommend for all. What a time capsule!! Please support this place!!!!

    Part of the great relish tray. I heard it changes but we got Cole slaw, seafood salad, and pickled beets.

    Note: No website or WiFi but don't let that stop you! This place in my opinion for the area was a sleeper goldmine Super Supper Club! Went on a Saturday 4:00pm at opening and we were lucky, note: make reservations a couple of days ahead to get a seat. Also note days and hours of operations. That said, Amy, our server, informative, gracious and attentive (give the girl a raise!). Can't tell you all in the NW Illinois suburb area, if you don't want to travel to Cheese Land (Wisconsin) to dine in an old time supper club, this is the place!

    The relish tray made my day.

    Excellent duck. Atmosphere, music and great service. On Sundays they expand their menu with more traditional German cuisine choices.

I always thought it was fine though not memorable, just your standard buffet, but I've read that they have new owners and I can tell the difference. Now, I can definitely see being a regular here, and coming to check out their other offerings too other than just brunch. Everything I tried was perfectly made, from the prime rib to the eggs benedict (really great!) to the desserts. Even the champagne was excellent! And the service was next level. My brother uses a walker and they gave us a choice of tables (any of them would have worked) and were so helpful in every respect (even accommodating his special request for something that wasn't on the buffet - they have saintly patience!). They were all just so NICE - having just moved back to the midwest from the west coast, I'm still getting used to midwesterner niceness, but even with that everyone here was exceptional. I'm looking forward to coming back not just for brunch, but also bringing friends back for the fish fry, which also sounds great. And for old-fashioneds!
