German | Norridge, Northwest Suburbs

Oktoberfest Attire Appetizer Promo

It was Oktoberfest with a very good band, EuroExpress. A pre-wedding party was present, making it more joyful also. Good liver dumpling soup. Potato pancakes - above average. Veal wiener schnitzel pieces have become smaller. Duck can be plus or minus in preparation. Red cabbage, well done. Spaetzle - good. Good apple strudel. A lot of beer choices. One of the better choices for German food in the Chicago area. More
