Description
Established in 2013 by founders Ayana and Tobias as a tribute to their homeland, this neighborhood favorite brings a slice of southwestern Germany to Brooklyn. The kitchen turns out comforting regional plates, with traditional wursts taking center stage alongside a surprisingly diverse selection of vegetarian options. The drink list features imported German draft beers served in various sizes, alongside regional wines and craft spirits. Inside, the spacious dining room is brightened by skylights and equipped with large projection screens that draw lively crowds for soccer matches, while heated sidewalk seating offers a cozy outdoor alternative. The atmosphere is casual and family-friendly, though it regularly dials up the energy during big games and the autumn Oktoberfest rush.
