Our server Ellie appeared, waters were delivered and she took our drink order. Our drinks were delivered and our food order was taken. Seamless, and quick, even with some questions from the ladies. Mind you, it was lunch time on Castro Street, pedestrians only, so very trendy. Busy. NOISE LEVEL LOUD. You may remove hearing aids. DOUBLE SMASH BURGER $19.50 garlic dijonnaise / American cheese / red onion / dill pickles and that was it. Top bun was room temperature, and the bottom bun was only warm from the cooked meat. Had a nice grilled cheese burger aroma, tasting like any other greasy, juicy, salty, cheese burger, nothing different or special. Accompanying fries were mildly seasoned, and I found no need to add salt. It was good, would order it again, but I don't feel it's worth the price. From the $13.00 special price menu: FISH & CHIPS $13.00 - what there was of the small portion of fish was seasoned well, as were the chips (fries). The Brit (the Duchess) in the party, gave her approval. The realm settled into contentment. COKE - $3.95 - glass with ice and straw was just enough to get me through my meal. GINGER LIME SODA - $7.00 - the Duchess was not happy with her order stating it was too sour, lacking any sweetness. She would never, ever order again and especially not at this price. The other couple in our party ordered Eureka burgers (American Swiss / grilled red onion / lettuce / house pickles / tomato / special sauce) substituting cheddar cheese for the Swiss. These burgers did come with bite size lettuce, a slice of tomato and pickle chips and fries. A side of onion rings completed their meal. I stole the woman's pickle chips and the flavor was great, just perfect . . . yum. Accompanied by two IPA beers. The cloudy lagers seemed to fill the bill. These burgers appeared to be just normal, greasy, juicy, salty regular cheese burgers. Nothing to take your breath away. SERVICE: Great! Ellie was attentive without hovering. It was a busy lunchtime hour, but they seem to have enough staff to handle the lunch rush. Ellie handled our table expertly with some patience I might add, so 5 stars to her. 2nd time here and I probably won't return. Pricing and noise level are a concern. Their acoustics are not made to handle the volume of chatter and music. PARKING: Entrance to public parking on Villa St., half block from Eureka's, located on the corner of Villa and Castro.

Also Was very slaw and didn't follow our table during the time that we were there, just the busser to pick up the dirty plate and bring the drinks refill. The atmosphere was nice modern and big patio area. Sorry I didn't take pictures to all dishes. ( in this location use to be a Faz restaurant) I will back to try some other dishes.

I would come here on game day for sure, as it is we were here to watch one of the World cup matches. This place is hopping We started with the giant Pretzel So soft and perfectly salted. The German Spicy Mustard was perfect as well as a sweet tomato Chutney. I had the Ribs and Mac & Cheese. The Mac a Cheese had a mild spicy flavor that you don't expect in a Mac & Cheese. Just made you want more. The ribs were dripping in sauce. Some people don't care for saucy ribs but the sauce was so good I was glad to need to lick my fingers. It was a perfect blend of Spicy and sweet. Best I've ever had bar none. Hubby had the Truffle Gnocchi. Thought it was really good. The cream sauce was surprisingly light not gut bomb heavy. The Gnocchi was light with perfect texture. Overall great dish. The one failure to the dinner was the Fish n Chips. The fish was extremely fishy in flavor which is not what Fish n Chips is supposed to be. My brother-in-law was the one eating it he stated the fish wasn't fresh must have been frozen. He loves fish n chips but marked this one at the bottom of the list. Be kind to one another

Calamari Fritti - it was okay.

The cocktails are creative and well balanced, and the outdoor spaces are excellent. Relaxed, family friendly, lots of space to safely run around away from the tables... It sort of reminds me of Jack Rose Tavern while they were still around. But the service, on a fairly quiet Thursday night, was surprisingly inattentive. I got ignored for 45 minutes and would have spent a hundred dollars more if I could have gotten anyone's eye. Stunning miss for such a nice spot, it really seemed they don't want my money and don't care I'm there to give it to them. Eventually got up and walked to the bar, amidst a group of 4 servers standing around, to pay my check and leave.

Really enjoyed our meal at Ludwig's Biergarten! We ordered the pork knuckle, veal schnitzel, and a…read moreGerman stout, and it was a seriously satisfying German feast. The pork knuckle was the highlight, huge portion, beautifully roasted with crispy skin on the outside and tender, juicy meat underneath. The rich sauce paired really well with it. The veal schnitzel was crispy and generously sized, topped with a creamy mushroom sauce and served with red cabbage and jam. I especially liked the contrast between the savory schnitzel and the slightly sweet, tangy cabbage. And of course, German food needs German beer. The stout was dark, smooth, creamy, and refreshing, and went perfectly with the heavier meat dishes. Great place when you're craving hearty German comfort food, big portions, and a proper beer-garden experience. Service was attentive. Ambiance was great. Come hungry!

Let me preface this by saying that maybe my standards are too high from having lived in Europe, and…read morethat I don't drink beer that much. I was craving a beer and a pretzel and sausage, so my boyfriend and I decided to finally try Ludwig's. We've passed by probably hundreds of times, but because we're not that into beer or German food, we'd never tried it. We sat down on a Sunday afternoon, and it was mostly empty, with maybe 3-4 other tables, but service was still incredibly slow. It took at least 15 minutes for someone to take our order, and another 20 to get my beer, and then even longer for our food to come out, a pretzel and a couple of sausages. I ordered a stout, which came in a tall, skinny glass rather than an appropriate glass for this style of beer. It definitely diminished the quality to serve it in this type of glass. The pretzel was dry and kind of hard. The beer cheese somehow didn't taste much like beer or cheese. And the sausages were OK, nothing particularly memorable. Two stars because the ambiance was nice, and they had live music. We definitely won't go back since Mountain View bizarrely has two other German-type beer garden restaurants that we can try if the craving hits again.

For the price there should have been 4 or 5. Fried chicken with mashed potatoes, sautéed kale. This was delicious, we don't often order fried chicken but this was cooked just right. My sister had the goat cheese salad as her main, it was very good with little balls of fried goat cheese. Drinks: Good wine selection, I had my usual glass of Savee Sea Sauvignon Blanc. Dessert: We split an amazing dessert, the Sticky Toffee pudding Sundae which is caramel and vanilla gelato with a toffee sauce, whipped cream, pecans-- so good! next time I"m getting one for myself.

I asked for mayo for my hamburger, and waited and waited and waited. I finally had to go inside to ask for it before my burgers got completely cold. That was a bit annoying for a 20% tip. The restaurant is on a closed street with lots of restaurants on each side, so there isn't parking right by the restaurant. We did find a parking lot near by.
