I'll have to say that the restaurant obviously has a lot of friends. However, their overly glowing reviews have done a disservice to the restaurant because you end up going expecting too much. The food WAS good (can't speak to the ""authentic"" part as I am not German nor have I been to Germany) and it was well priced. Beyond that, it is poorly located, small, and has little ambiance. The service is incredibly slow (although the staff IS friendly... maybe part of the reason the service is slow!) Our average meal for two people (2 drinks, an appetizer, and an entree each.. not even dessert!) took 2 hours! The waitress had to be flagged down to place our order and it took an exceptionally long time to get it. They are very slow refilling drinks and it usually only happened after we called them over and asked. We began just flagging down whomever we saw first even if it wasn't our waitress. If you are craving German food, I'd recommend it, otherwise, probably not, and I definitely wouldn't go out of my way to eat there. Good for the Pflugerville area but that's about their radius. I think it will survive as long as their many friends continue to support them and hang out there but when that dries up, I'd expect to see this spot vacant again.
