    I’ve been to this location before, but I’ve been to the one on Fillmore Street. It had been a long time and I was very glad to see how busy they were and that the food was still excellent. The service was fantastic and they were very attentive.

    Having to order food & beverage via a QR code and then being expected to tip on service for basically food runners seemed a bit unfair. The beers were excellent. The currywurst needed MUCH more curry.
