Great quality of food, huge portions 3 people could share almost everything. Sat out in the tent, weather was perfect, they had a good karaoke dj the night we when. The Gazebo bar looks cool, need to sit there next time!

What a great little place. On a whim we decided we wanted to have chicken for dinner. It was later on Sunday, so I looked up places close by. The Chicken Schnitzel pictures on Google hooked us. The food was amazing. We had the seared Ahi for an appetizer. We both got the Chicken Schnitzel. It was huge and delicious, and the potatoes and onions under it were outstanding. Next time, maybe the Hunters Schnitzel. The picture is of the leftovers. I forgot to take a picture before eating it.

Came here after visiting the train museum and loved how close it is. The food was also very good and enough variety for the whole family. They had very kid friendly options and my kids are picky. Everyone loved their meals. Would definitely recommend to anyone

I had the Bavarian Chicken special with German potatoes. Friends had a pork sandwich and steak salad.

One word, WOW! We stopped by after a day at the Illinois Railway Museum. The food is well prepared, quick and very tasty. Our server was very friendly and helpful (our first time here). The portions are abundant. Everyone took home leftovers. Besides American favorites, there is some Bavarian influence on the menu as they have bratwurst and a variety of schnitzel dishes on the menu. I'll definitely be back! Great option if you are in the area. One caution is that seating is limited in the winter when the out door area is closed
