Old Stein Inn

Our 1st visit was back in May of 2021 ... we've been back several times and even brought back my hubby's family. The first time was enjoyable. Made us want to come back. Our server was great and she rolled with the punches, which made it more fun. The atmosphere was authentic with lots of German touches. The food was good but nothing outstanding. The schnitzel -- when authentic is very thin and usually the size of the plate, but my husband said it was good. Hubby and friends enjoyed their weizen - love their weizen, when they can find it. Sooooooo we came back with our grown kids and their significant others and again, everything was enjoyable, pleasant and memorable. Sooo the next time we brought my hubby's whole family -- mother, sister, brother, neice and nephews .... hmmmmm ... the food was great, the atmosphere was fun and thriving ... and then there was the 'server' ... when I let him know that we needed to split the check ... whoop wait ... nope, can't do that ... his whole demeanor changed .... he gave me so much push back and grief about the check, he even gave me a separate reason (excuse maybe) that "he forgot his glasses." Ok ... no problem ... give me the check and I'll break it down for you so that it should make it easier for you. Whoop, wait ... no, nope that's not the way we do it. I said, please ... bring me the check. I broke it all down - worked out to the dime ... paid our bill and we were on our way ... unfortunately that process took such a loooooong time that we were all exhausted and just wanted to go home ... Oh, btw ... we don't live in Maryland and had a 2 hr drive ahead of us. Our choice, but with stomachs full ... the sitting and waiting for the check to be resolved caused our mind and bodies to go into zombie mode. Woof ... what a loooong ride. So needless to say, we haven't been back ... but I'm sure we will venture back and give it another go.

“I would like to share our dinner last night. Our experience, its our first time to visit & have dinner here. Everything was good we love the place very clean & nice, the server is very friendly. Food price is very normal price, but we have concern about our appetizers, we order a crab ball made with a crab meat. So yummy actually, but the price is way so expensive for 3 pcs $23😬. I hope they gonna change that price though so expensive. We’re actually surprised.

Any time I can have some authentic German, I'm there. Always liked the Inn, first revisit in ~15yrs, it deserves more of my time. I'm 45mins away so it's not just around the corner. Tis the season for German fest, I'll be back! My server for Sunday lunch was soooo nice and on top of her game and chatty. Thank you 😘

This is the third time I’ve eaten here. I keep coming back because of just how cool the atmosphere is, especially in the beer garden. I’ve never been a huge fan of German food, but this place does it very well. Possibly one of the best in Maryland. Not to mention they have a great selection of German beers on tap. And the waffle sundae really puts it over the top. I don’t know if I can come here again without getting it.

Overall, the food was pretty good... I definitely enjoyed their potato pancakes... brought back memories of how way my grandmother, aka Oma, used to make them when I was a kid.... It's definitely a tap house with a great selection of beers.... We will be back to eat and enjoy some German beers....

Just had dinner here, and it was a great experience. Our server Suzy was attentive, very friendly, and made great menu recommendations. The food was prepared with care and was delicious. The Sauerbraten was tender, and the gravy complimented everything on the plate. The apple streudel for dessert... I could have eaten three servings. Amazing! I can't wait to come back.

We had two appetizers (sausage and cheese, sampler platter and fries with Hunter gravy), two entrees ( pork schnitzel with red cabbage and spaetzle and sausages w/German, potato salad, and sauerkraut). All of them were amazing. We took half of our dinner home so that we could try the apple strudel, which was also amazingly fresh with fresh whipped cream and vanilla ice cream. Our server Kelsey provided great service and was very well informed about the menu. We will be going back there very soon to try there many other dishes and the beer garden.

Literally the best German place that I can find in the states. Anytime we go it's a treat, you can't go wrong with the jagerschnitzel. It's a classic, but I'm also a huge fan of the schnitzel witch which they also do in a buffalo version. Plenty of desserts to pick from too but warning they are very heavy but delicious. It's a German place so no explanation needed on the beer, their drafts are excellent. Kid friendly as well.

A little gem in what seems like the middle of nowhere. Ample parking, wonderful beer selection and awesome food. Highly recommend! There are different ambiances...the bar, the main dining area and the mostly enclosed back patio. We try to drive out once a month! The only negative is, if you sit in the bar service can be a little slow. Other than that,

What a lovely place! Come for a birthday in Jan and their indoor/outdoor beer garden layout was the best way to enjoy as a large group. Beer menu was extensive, food menu even larger & the food did not disappoint! Apps: potato pancake, pretzel and meat/cheese platter. Entree: pork schnitzel Will definitely be back in the summer to check out the vibes then!

Whenever I desire roaming the streets of Germany and sampling all the vendor's food, I come here! German family owned and operated since 1983. The aesthetic is very on-point. Simply walking from the parking lot and through the restaurant door is a portal door right into Germany. I swear it is very authentic even down to the aroma. The restaurant is HUGE and boasts a large bar and outdoor biergarten which is the perfect setting for their evenings of live music. I have enjoyed every dish that I have tried: the wild mushroom nudeln, gemuse spatzle, muenster cheese crab soup, potato pancakes, and the Jager frites! The desserts are a MUST--waffle sundae, root beer float, apfelstrudel and pretzel bread pudding?! YUM YUM YUM. They also have dishes that you wouldn't normally see on a Maryland menu such as kangaroo burgers, elk medallions, liverwurst, rabbit stew, veal sausages and giant charcuterie boards loaded with different German sausages. If you want to dabble in the genre of German beer, try them all via a beer flight! They have light flight and a dark flight, so why not get them both?! The bar always has 10 German beers on tap, including the famous Lindemans Framboise Lambic (OMFG, try it). Fun fact: The Old Stein has been featured on "The Best Of Show" on the Food Network and has won multiple awards for the Munster Cheese & Crab Soup and the Apple Cheesecake.

Food tends to be salty. Nothing vegetarian except salads. Service good as is beer selection and atmosphere. Not as loud as many pubs.

Loved the food and beer and atmosphere. The apple strudel is amazing. I will be back for Octoberfest, for sure.

Great mountain bar vibe, serving great German food. Staff was friendly and service good. Our first visit but definitely will be back.

Food, overpriced but edible, Service was friendly but not above board, ambiance in the garden area was warm and littered with families, good with well behaved dogs. My only objection was the price, $14 for a canned beer? $30 for a jägersnitel? Too much Food, overpriced but edible, Service was friendly but not above board, ambiance in the garden area was warm and littered with families, good with well behaved dogs.

I took my mother their on Sunday for mother's Day the food was really good but the service was terrible the sever had a attitude after we just ordered water during our meal we were not asked how the meal was but everyone else he was waiting on he asked he only asked after we were done, during the time our empty plates were picked up i said thank you only to be ignored im not sure why we were treated this way the restaurant is 40 minutes out of our way it's not like i don't tip good i guess he got mad that we didn't order drinks which would have made his tip more i tip on service not how much the bill is or tax

Fun place to kick off Oktoberfest! We enjoyed the polka music and food and service. Bavarian pretzels, potato pancakes, spaetzle, were our appetizers and everything tasted delicious. We also had Jägerschnitzel and Currywurst with fries. They Currywurst was amazing! We definitely need to get that again. For dessert we had apple strudel with ice cream. The beer selection was good with lots of German beers to chose from.

Food is bland. Will not be back. Nothing authentic about this place. Came in here and expected tasty food. Manager was kind but place looks to be more interested in turnaround than the quality. This will not last long as people will not be coming back.

Top notch is every way! Food is consistently good, seasonal specials are like nothing you find anywhere else. Service is always on point which reflects good management. Trivia on Wednesday's is a plus.

Fun, festive German setting. Great beer selection, good German food. Oktoberfest is a great time to visit, but any Saturday afternoon is a good time to visit.

There's a good selection of German beers on tap. We were a group of about 10, and the service was fine. Most ordered a schnitzel of one kind or another. I got the pork Jägerschnitzel. It was very disappointing. It didn't have the golden brown look one would expect. It was also on the tough side -- should have asked for a steak knife because the regular knife was a struggle. Also, it was served on top of the Spätzle. Not exactly a side then. The red cabbage was a bit too sour. BTW, I'm German so I might be a bit picky. The other big downside is that the restaurant won't split checks so everyone gets their own check. Haven't had a problem at other restaurants for our monthly meetings. There are computerized systems that most restaurants use, so this one is baffling. The ambiance is good, the beer selection is fine, the service satisfactory, the food mediocre and overpriced.

Stayed in Annapolis for a local staycation and looked on Yelp to see what there was to eat nearby. Despite knowing little about German food, we decided to try Old Stein Inn out. Everything we ordered was incredibly delicious. Standouts include the seafood spatzle that had a generous skewer of perfectly charred jumbo shrimp and a fillet of fatty white fish on top a rich seafood bisque covered spatzle. Tried their wild and regular wurst combination appetizers and every sausage was really moist and flavorful. Also got the combination platter which came with a grilled ham chop, pork schnitzel, bratwurst, red cabbage and potato salad. It was a perfect way to try a bit of everything and the ham in particular was really flavorful and tender. Service was attentive and friendly. We tried to go back another time before we left but they were closed for a holiday. It's definitely worth the drive from DC and I wouldn't mind coming up another weekend.

I needed a break in my day to get out of the house, before the work week. This is a place that has good food variety for a solo meal or to impress folks. The atmosphere is laid back and outdoorsy.

Best German food and beer around. The wild game menu is absolutely incredible. Hard to go wrong here!

Really does remind us of Germany. Service is good. The schnitzels are very good, both the pork and chicken. The mushroom sauce on the jaegerschnitzel is excellent. The spaetzle noodles are also excellent, and they take pains to make it right. The red cabbage was a bit too sweet for my taste. The potato salad was okay. The strudel was good, and the Black Forest brownie was very good, enough to share among friends or family.

Clean, comfortable and friendly service . A unique gem in the sea of same. Group of us Sat in bar/beer garden area. Open and airy nice rustic Bavarian atmosphere. The fried pickles, pretzel, crab soup, knock wurst, schnitzel and salad our table ordered all fantastic. Nice German beer selection. Red cabbage a must. We will be back!

I was told about this place sometime before the pandemic, summer of 2019 let us say. A buddy of mine who worked at the local liquor store, Matt, told me all about it and was further corroborated by another employee who also spoke positively about it. So what is the Old Stein Inn? As the name suggests, it is a German-themed restaurant, complete with a 'biergarten' - literally 'beer garden' in German; an outdoor place where you can relax, eat and drink beer. It is actually very nice, outdoors, but secluded- there's greenery, the parking lot is just beyond the walls but it is still relatively quiet and more importantly, neat. There's an outdoor bar so you don't have to wait for someone to come from inside the restaurant to get your libations, and the full menu is available out there. When the weather's nice, it tends to fill up before the restaurant does. As I don't care to eat outdoors, we always opt for the inside bar area, which is small and cozy, with a few intimate booths and a dozen or so stools up to a bar that runs the length of the room. It is full service but of course they specialize in German type beers and liquors. If you've never had it, I suggest the pear schnapps chilled as a starter, with a Schwarzbier (lit. 'black beer') chaser. Be warned, the schnapps goes down easy and has a pleasant, slightly sweet pear flavor and you'll get a number of them down before you realize that maybe you should not have. The menu is salted with German terms and German-inspired dishes; they feature a number of types of sausages- we're partial to the Bavarian Bauernwurst ourselves, which is a smoked pork sausage in natural casing (reminiscent of kielbasa) that is grilled, and served with German potato salad and sauerkraut. They make their own mustard there and it pairs perfectly with the sausage (or hot soft pretzel, we're fans of that as well). I opt for hand-cut inn fries instead of the potato salad, just because I like them better, though the salad is good as well. So we more or less waited three years to try it and though we wish we'd tried it sooner, I'm glad that it is still open for business. As I said, we like to sit in the bar area; on weekends the bartender is usually Barry, a friendly, gregarious type that you find in good bars everywhere- knowledgeable about the menu and the array of beers and liquors and more than happy to answer questions and give opinions. Since our first visit a few weeks ago, we've been back three times- it is quickly becoming a favorite watering hole that we have to save for the weekend since it isn't exactly close, but not so far away that the drive is onerous. We'd never been that far down Central Ave prior to visiting this place, it really is like another world down there. Quiet, quaint with a quality you normally see in lesser traveled parts of Maryland. By the water, a lot of the beaches are private access only, the public side is currently closed for construction; I could definitely picture living back up in there- quiet, tree-lined streets with water access. If that's your thing, you couldn't ask for more. Anyway, back to the Inn- if you like German-inspired food and drink with good service and a nice, lodge type of ambience, give the Old Stein Inn a try. You never know, we may even see each other, because we're definitely going back. I bet this place is hopping during Oktoberfest, can't wait to find out!

Beautiful dining rooms, Brier garden enclosed and outside depending on weather. Every menu item is made from scratch with family recipes. Great choice a lagers, ales, bock and double bock German beverages. Bar none their attention to detail from service, atmosphere and quality scratch menu. I drink non alcohol beverages if that's for you try their Bitburger non alcohol beer.

Carryout "Sampler" @ $30+ was good, but I thought expensive. Will return, to dine in.

So on a normal Sunday drive with my best friend, we headed towards Edgewater to see what kind of new adventures we could find. Getting hungry I turned onto the yelp app to see what kind of food options we had available in that area. To my surprise I found a German restaurant, old Stein Inn is definitely a diamond in the rough. We would've been happy for just a sandwich shop but finding old Stein Inn definitely made us happy. Due to Covid regulations, social distancing was strictly enforced inside the restaurant. Masks are required for entry and the wait staff had masks on throughout our stay at the restaurant. The menu is very thorough and represents authentic German menu items that she would find in the country. Not being a beer drinker, my buddy said they had the best selection of German beers he seen in years. Keep in mind this is a little mom-and-pop local business, not a giant German restaurant financed by the elite that she would find in DC. We started off our dining experience with a Wurstplatte that consisted of sauteed sausages with assorted cheese and german brown mustard. It was the perfect appetizer for us. My buddy ordered the Das Boot sandwich with Spatzle and a side of red cabbage. It must have been delicious because he did not put it down and stopped talking until he finished his meal. For my entree, I selected the  Jagerschnitzel, which had a Jager sauce with mushrooms and came with red cabbage and a side of Spatzle. I went with the pork version and I have to say the schnitzel was perfectly cooked and the mushroom gravy was awesome. So since we ate out on 3.14.2021 (pie day) we both got the Apple Strudel with ice cream and a slather of whipped cream. HOLY perfectly cooked dessert ever. The apples were perfectly cooked, not too cooked but not raw also, the crust was perfectly crunchy and sweet and the ice cream and whipped cream hit the spot. BTW the size of the desert was HUGE. This is a must-eat restaurant if you are in the area. Yelper approved.

It pains me to have to leave this review because I have had several good experiences at Old Stein Inn. Unfortunately, Old Stein Inn can't seem to figure out how to serve large groups of people and this leads to a very poor experience for these customers. Our large group of roughly 20 people arrived to the restaurant promptly at 4 PM and this is where the problems began. Despite having made a reservation well in advance, the Old Stein Inn seemed totally unprepared for us and we had to wait several minutes for them to set up our dining area. Once we were seated our "waiter", who was also the less than friendly bartender, informed us that at the Old Stein Inn checks cannot be split for large parties. It seems as though most every other restaurant in the world has figured out this exotic skill, but not Old Stein Inn apparently. This forced the whole group to pay individually at the bar which proved to be a laborious process that could have been avoided if we simply had an actual waiter to serve us in the first place. The lack of waiter also meant that dishes took a long time to be cleared from the tables and drinks were refilled seldomly, if at all Thankfully, the food came out pretty quickly and was pretty good but kind of expensive. I would suggest that Old Stein Inn rethink its policies when it comes to serving large groups because it isn't the only restaurant in the area. The All American Steakhouse is just up the road and its staff is extremely friendly and their food is excellent and much cheaper than the Old Stein Inn.

Not the once great dining experience it on e was. Unfortunately this was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. The food was mediocre, service was slow, the noise level was absolutely unbearable and i could not talk to the person 2 seats away without yelling. Also, they would not separate checks in any way for a table of 8. Time to upgrade your point of sale system or change your policy that we were made aware of at the end of the meal.

I love the specials. I love when bands come during Oktoberfest. Healthy options. Kitchen is amenable to low sodium requests.

Their beer selection is delicious!!! I recently went there for a high school reunion and we just had the best time.

The food, service, atmosphere, and choice of German beers is outstanding. Our first experience here there was a band playing folk music and I had a perfect lager to pair with the food. Portions are generous, place is family friendly, and dogs are welcome, assuming they are behaved. We now come here as often as we can afford to. Food is priced fairly given the quality, but between two people with an app, entree, and two drinks each, you will easily spend $100+ before the tip. Especially if you have room for desert (you probably won't). I understand imports aren't cheap, but it would be nice to see prices lowered on select draft beers here. A $5 draft night, happy hour, or free first beer for repeat customer system would be cool. Otherwise keep up the great work Old Stein!

Good food, good service! Lovely atmosphere, would love to go on a nice cool day and sit in the beer garden.

This local establishment does a great job capturing the look and feel of an authentic German beer garden. The atmosphere is great, nice and cozy inside with roomy outdoor areas for a more festive feel. The food is traditional German, with all the usual wursts, schnitzels, noodles and potatoes prepared in an authentic manner. I am actually more of a fan of German street foods, which they do not have much of here. But the entrees and desserts are well-prepared and quite delicious. Prices are a bit high, but you won't find many other places like this in the area. The facility is nice and clean, with good decor and a comfortable layout. Staff is friendly and helpful. Nice place to visit on the way to the beach.

How in the world does something so wonderful exist? The biergarten is gorgeous! It's incredible to be able to find such authentic and delicious German food in the countryside of Southern Maryland. Today is my 3rd visit and the best so far. Always great service, always great food...this is a guarantee. Today is special because rabbit stew is on the menu and I couldn't imagine a more delightful meal to enjoy on a Winters day.

I have to admit Old Stein Inn is a sentimental favorite of mine. I grew up passing this restaurant every summer as a kid on the way to Mayo Beach. I remember the dark wood and furniture of the old restaurant, but the rebuild is nice too. I wish they would put rouladen back on the menu too! That was their best dish! Also I noticed they stopped serving the rye and brown bread :( The food they still serve is really good. The tangy sauerbraten is a German version of pot roast that is a little sweet and sour. The German potato salad is more vinegary than it has been in the past. The pork schnitzel and spaetzle is still very yummy. They still serve beer battered onion rings and pretzels. My only complaint is the cocktail menu. It had 3 options whereas in the past there were more original options!

This was our first time going and we loved it! The food, the atmosphere and the service were all on point! We got their while the band was still on and our youngest loved it. The food was so good! We can't wait to go back!!

I was definitely hoping for more. When it comes to German restaurants I have found there are 2 categories. German themed restaurants and Authentic German Restaurants and the Old stein Inn fall into the prior. They offer all of the stuff you'd expect to see on a German menu but lacking soul. These themed restaurants are great For socializing and drinking don't get me wrong the do have some benefit to offer. If you want to drink beer and eat sausage this place will work just fine. I tried the jagerschnitzel that came with red cabbage, spatzle and mushroom gravy. The portion was great but the whole dish was lacking flavor. If done correctly the mushroom gravy usually packs so much flavor and brings the dish together but sadly this one falls short. The food isn't bad don't get me wrong , but could definitely be much better. Now to the covid precautions. Here they get 5 stars. Staff all wears masks, multiple hand sanitizer stations located throughout the restaurant. Plastic silverware (horrid for environment but appropriate now) and the tables were nicely spread out. Kudos on this.

I don't think I could love this place more. It's the perfect balance between old school, authentic German and clean beer garden. I wish it were in my backyard.

Amazing food, great ambiance, and great beer! Also a hood family place, we always bring our little kids and have a good time. The schnitzelwich is our favorite, and purple haze beer which is a mix of two beers

The food here was amazing. We had various sausages in our plates and they were all done really well. Very generous side portions. I was never really a fan of German potato salad till I had this one! But the star if the show was the desserts. We got 2 to share: the apfelstrudel and the chocolate brownie German cake. The cake stole the show with the rich flavors and amazing pecan and coconut icing! Wanted to lick that plate clean. My only complaint was the noise level in the bier garten was loud and hard for the servers to here, but that was the customers and nothing the restaurant did. Overall if you like German food this is a top spot to hit if you're in the area!!

One of the only places to get sour beef and dumplings. And their selection of beer was off the hook. Nice setting as well.

Been more and more. New chef, better fusion cooking. Great lively atmosphere on weekends.

I was a bit surprised at just how much my wife and I enjoyed this place. There are a number of German-themed restaurants that have so-so food and gimmicky decor and that I what I was expecting here. Instead it was a really nice place to have a late lunch on weekend afternoon. The interior of the restaurant did not have the over the top pseudo-German kitsch you often see and the covered outdoor dining area was lovely. Service was prompt and friendly and the beer was tasty. The food was meat & potatoes comfort food but it was very good. What surprised me is that they had excellent sauerkraut, a rarity in the US. This was a great find and I'd be happy to go back.

Overrated. Quite expensive for the food and beer quality. $20 for what is a sausage is way too high. Beer pricey too. I would go elsewhere.

Quality seems to have dropped off and prices for some menu items seem ridiculously high. We ordered the potato pancakes last night: they used to be obviously house-made fresh pancakes. They've been replaced by something like a McDonald's hash brown that looks and tastes frozen that they purchase mass-produced. Ordered the specials schnitzel and yet it didn't include cabbage. Their fresh pretzel is $9, and it's a remarkably small pretzel with a skinny half that has almost no pretzel to it. Our "das boot" sandwich came to the table burnt and over-cooked. This used to be a favorite go-to, but we've had two disappointing visits in a row, and doubt we'll go back.

I have ventured to another local German restaurant in the area, and I will say, this restaurant is the winner. The dining ambience for my experience was an unassuming picnic table with beautiful hanging lights. I sampled quite a few items since it was my first time. WURSTPLATTE: Various sausages with crispy skin, perfectly cooked. Cheese was creamy. Unable to take a photo due to rapid consumption. CHESAPEAKE SPÄTZLE (a special): A lovely cacophony of flavors served atop spätzle with vegetables, shrimp, rockfish, and crab meat. GERMAN CHOCOLATE BROWNIE: If you love German chocolate cake (or GCC for those in the know), this is a must. I would be proud to take anyone to eat here!

So good! Lovely service. The game menu is pretty cool. The Biergarten is the best place to sit but the bar has booths which is unique.

Everything was really good, food was fresh and tasty as German food can be, you can never go wrong with German beer though! Had a great time again been 5 or 6 times and will return again

The Old Stein Inn is a really fun traditional German restaurant and beer garden. The food is authentic and very good. The outside beer garden has been remodeled to provide cover and heating. They also provide entertainment on the weekends. The service is always good and they check to make sure that you have everything you need. Liverwurst's are served with German toast and is very fresh. The Jägerschnitzel is very good and falls off the plate. The red cabbage and potato salad are both very tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant.

A favorite my family is German so this brings back great memories of sauerkraut and German meals as a child.

After reading the Yelp reviews about this restaurant, we decided to drive up to Annapolis and give it a try. After all, who doesn't like German food? We made a reservation and they reminded us several times via text message in the days leading up to our trip. You can either eat inside or in the beer garden and the hostess recommended for our first visit that we try the beer garden. Good choice. When we arrived we were promptly seated. All the Maryland covid protocols were being followed. As you would imagine in a German brewhouse type restaurant there were lots of beers available. For appetizers we decided to go with the fried pickles and the Bavarian pretzel. Both good choices, and the fried pickles were the best I've ever had. Instead of Chip form they were Spears which contributes greatly to the pickle taste as you will have less breading. For entrees we went with the schnitzel, the sauer braten, the Bavarian sausage combo and the Munich sausage combo. The schnitzel comes with spaetzle and red cabbage, all the sausage plates feature German potato salad. All of the dishes were very good, but the spaetzle was a little bland. For dessert we shared the waffle and the apple strudel. Both of those were really good. The restaurant and restrooms were clean and the service we received was very good, thanks Alexis! Prices are what you would expect in the Annapolis area with the sausage combo going for about $18 and the sauerbraten leading the pack at about $25. We will definitely be back in Future.

If you want to go to a truly "dog friendly" restaurant with excellent food and awesome service (looking at you Rachael!), then hit the OSI. I love this place and they never disappoint. Awesome beer selection. On a Saturday afternoon, there was a lady performing polkas with an accordion and taking requests! Just added to to the German atmosphere and enhanced the experience. Get the potato pancakes with the homemade apple sauce, any of the wursts, and the red cabbage! Thank God for a decent restaurant within 25 minutes of Crofton (without having to head towards Baltimore!) Zum Wohl!

On 1/28/23 we went to Old Stein Inn and ordered 4 different meals and every meal was amazing! Dave was our waiter, very personable and was truly the best waiter we've had in years! I would definitely recommend this place, we will be back

Had an enjoyable dinner here this evening. Was in the mood for German food and that's not readily available in the DC area. Checked out their menu online and decided to give it a go. Started with a few beers and an order of the landjager which was very nice. I had the Franziskaner hefe-weissbier which was very nice. I wasn't crazy about the plastic cups but I'm guessing that's virus related. I ordered the Old Stein Sampler Platter which gave me a Kassler Rippchen, grilled bratwurst & mini-pork schnitzel with spätzle & red cabbage. It was teriffic and I enjoyed it very much. My wife had the sauerbraten and she was a big fan. Apple strudel and German brownie for dessert with coffees and we were set. Interesting that up north it's common to have veal schnitzel but down here they only seem to have chicken and pork, but I did enjoy mine and would have loved to have more! The food came out quickly and our waitress was very attentive without being annoying. Great German food and we look forward to our next visit, especially if things get back to normal!
