Charming restaurant that has the feel of an old-fashioned supper club, with a relish tray and basket of crackers. The owner/chef and our waitress were very friendly and attentive. Loved the German food which was well prepared, and made with love by the cook. This was a great small-town find. We felt very welcome here, and will return.

Food was good quality, Surprised that they did not have a full menu on Wed night, Make sure you read the headings. We all had something different, 1 Shrimp, 1 Wall eye, 1 Fish (Cod), 1 Chicken. All meals were ok, none were bad, Drinks average price. Good Value for the price and quality

We loved our first experience here, loved that they took our fish fry order as we walked in the door and we sat at the bar while we waited for our food that was at our table when we were sat. Nice touch. Great food, love family style. Can't wait to try the more elegant Saturday nite experience.

We went there for the German food (Thursday or Saturday), and it was excellent. They weren't very busy due to rainy weather, and the cook came out to see how we liked the food. Meals included a relish tray, whipped cheese and bread, a voice of salad, and entree.

The Food was great - I had ordered a steak shrimp combo - steak came med rare just like I requested. Husband and a German dish - he really enjoyed it. The service was great - and very prompt. The time of each course was just right. Would go back again! The con was the table next to was extremely loud but that wasn't the Nite Caps fault.
