With its blue-and-white checkered flags, servers in traditional Bavarian garb and an oompah band in lederhosen (plays nightly starting at 7 p.m.), this restaurant forces you to embrace the kitsch factor. The atmosphere at this Lincoln Square mainstay is year-round Oktoberfest. The menu is loaded with ). hearty German fare: liver dumpling soup, roulaude (beef rolled with pickles and onions), schnitzel, herring, bratwurst, and kassler rippchen. Draft beers include Spaten, Stiegl and Bitburger. The restaurant's huge tables easily accommodate big groups, although reservations are recommended on weekends.
