Black Forest InnWhat a Great Mother's DayI know Mother's Day is pretty busy at restaurants but we booked the Black Forest Inn because my wife & mother love the place. Despite the large crowds once again the Black Forest Inn did not disappoint. Food was outstanding as usual and the service could not have been better. I'm really impressed.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMSo so good!Maybe the best, most tender, tasty and perfectly cooked duck breast I've ever had anywhere! Melt in your mouth tender and just the right amount of a sauce- glaze accompanying the food. My wife ordered a dinner size serving of maultaschen and it must have been good because she ate just about every bit of it. We don't go there often but when we do it never disappoints.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat German FareThis was our early Mother's day dinner. Being of German descent, it was the restaraunt if choice for my mom. Dinners are pricey, but worth every penny. Service was excellent. The dinning room was appropriarely decorated in old world theme without overdoing it. Actually a bit elegant. Menu offerings accomodated many American palates as well. We have been there several times before with the same exoerience.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMFine dinning the way it should be!The Black Forest has authentic German cuisine. The service was perfect laid back relaxing. Everything and everyone we're great! Highly recommend! My favorite place around!5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways Outstanding...My husband and I have been going to the Black Forest Inn for 36 years and have never had a bad meal. It is our "go to" restaurant for very special occasions.The food is of the highest quality and the service is excellent. This past Friday night we were there to celebrate a birthday and for the first time we tried the Friday Buffet...it was amazing! A great why to try a little bit of everything the BFI has to offer. We unreservedly recommend the Black Forest Inn.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful Evening with FriendsWe had a great time with wonderful friends and delicious food at the Black Forest Inn.

But that is a big misconception. My family and I go there often and enjoy a wide variety of entrees that are more "continental" than German. This place is outstanding.

Great service, great atmosphere!!!3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful Easter Dinner!We had Easter dinner here & my husband & I haven't stopped talking about this wonderful German/Continental restaurant. The food was fabulous, the wait staff attentive & professional & the decor was rich, elegant & comfortable. Despite the many diners the noise level was minimum. The Easter menu was nicely varied. My husband's sauerbraten was less briny than expected but richly flavored with wine & spice. My roast lamb was lean, tender, with a flavorful gravy. The mashed potatoes tasted homemade & the red cabbage was also less briny and apple flavored. My escargot in butter & fines herbes appetizer was heavenly! So were the desserts! Worth the $$! We highly recommend BFI for any occasion.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food was excellent andThe food was excellent and the portions were huge.

Plenty of choices and the chef behind the buffet table couldn't have been more pleasant and helpful. 1 ordered off the menu and the waitress went out of her way to please her. The only issue was the credit card machine was down due to a problem with the phone lines. We had to wait about 20 minutes to pay our bill. But overall it was great and we will be going back soon.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMI have eaten here for bothI have eaten here for both just pleasant dinners as well as special occasions such as birthdays and have never been disappointed.
