"The second you walk through the door, you get the feeling that this German spot is a lot of fun. Between the décor—which includes multiple sets of wall-mounted antlers—lively music, communal seating, and a biergarten in the back, this place knows how to have a good time. Must-try dishes include the frisbee-sized soft pretzels, the intensely flavorful smoked bratwurst, and the crispy pork schnitzel (do not skip the lightly sweet and chunky applesauce on the side). If you’re with a couple of friends and want to try a variety of dishes, the $50 Das Full Haus, with bratwurst, schnitzel, pretzels, pickles, and spaetzle, is never a bad choice." - Gabi Moskowitz
