    Expensive visit on 5/27. Parking was $15, service was slow even though the restaurant was not at 50% capacity and they over charged us $16. Will not be back.

    I’ve been to other Hofbrauhaus’s and they seem to have a wider variety of food on their menu’s. Have more sausage sandwich options. More schnitzel options. Service potato pancakes as a starch option.

    What a disappointment. Food was nothing to write home about. Pork cutlet was too thick therefore very tough. Bavarian potato salad was cold and I asked for a substitution and was told that they didn’t do that. The noise was definitely way too loud on the lower level but upon request they did put us upstairs in a quieter room. I guess my mistake was that I didn’t ask for talk to a manager.

    Took my wife there for Mother’s Day for two years running, she likes the patio, the kids enjoy it, it’s easy to get a reservation, and the beer and food is always good. They expanded their lunch menu, which was nice to see. I always go for the beer but someone next to us ordered the stein of Bloody Mary, which made me regret my beer order. The patio was under construction but didn’t effect us. They also lowered the massive umbrella for us because we wanted to sit in the sun.

    We chose to go to Hofbrauhaus for Mother's Day because we love the ambiance and thought it would be a fun time. They gave flowers to all the mothers and their brunch menu was awesome. We loved the avocado toast and the marscapone stuffed French toast. The pretzels were excellent as well! We will be back soon.

    Didn’t seem like a great brunch spot. The food came out cold and I forgot one plate so somebody had to wait for 10 minutes for their food while everybody else eight. And it was super expensive.

    We are Steinmaster members and have been going to “the Haus” for a long time. However, this was the first Sonntag Brunch we did. Although we are not totally impressed with many of the dinners here, we were blown away by the brunch food! Every dish we got was outstanding! They seemed very authentic and were reasonably priced (unlike the dinners)! Our service was also fantastic! We’ve had a lot of great servers there in the past, but Lena was by far one of the best!

    We went for Mother’s Day 2023 and only filled half the table. Our server was helpful with the menu while ordering. We had home brew while we waited for lunch and the music level was simply background brass music. As our time there progress, the band played at a much louder volume and the party got started. Great times!

    Music was way too loud! Very difficult to have a conversation with my wife, which means it would be terrible with other people (more than 2 people) because you wouldn't be able to hear half the conversations.

    Our server was absolutely wonderful. The woman who greeted us, on the other hand, was not. She saw our reservation and still insisted on placing us in the main hall where there were loads of younger people having a loud good time. I anticipated this and reserved a place in the King Ludwig room; however, she did not want to put us there. After having to be a bit of a “Karen” and get the manager involved, our reservation was honored. Everything after that was tip-top!

    This was our second visit and it was very nice, just as expected. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, good service, and the food is plentiful and delicious. Plenty of choices. Only one drawback is parking. If no street parking available, the lot is not the restaurant's and so the charge to park is either $10 or $15 based on whether or not there is an EVENT at the arena. So. Carpool vs meet up there. Save your $ for tipping the nice waitress!

    The food was cold, we asked for pretzel with just cheese sauce got all 4 dips, the music was so ungodly loud you could not speak to the person next to you. We asked 3 times to ask the band to turn it down. We finally got our seats moved upstairs against the back wall still too loud. I love the Beatles but this band was playing like they were in an outside venue. We were there celebrating with my husband with a group of 6 We spent $300 to eat drink and get the heck out before we went deaf. My ears were ringing. We love hifbrhaus but if the music's this loud we will not be back.very disappointed. We expect better from the food for what you pay.

    The food and service was very good. There was live music during dinner hour which was extremely loud and we couldn’t hold a conversation at our table. Patrons who were very drunk at other tables got up on stage to sing with the musician, which ruined the dining experience for us.
