"This restaurant is the epitome of mediocrity. The Pine Grove used to be excellent, but those days are long gone. My wife and I dined there last night, and aside from the charming ambiance and fantastic sauerbraten, there wasn’t much to get excited about, especially considering the prices. The $60 steak was cooked well but tough and hard to cut through. It was disappointing to find that there were no German beers available on a Saturday night—just absurd. The strudel was passable, but again, nothing special; it was overloaded with raisins and walnuts. While that might appeal to some, it wasn't to our taste, and we were not informed about it beforehand. It wasn't a disaster, just unexpectedly chewy. If you have a time machine, go back 20 years to experience the Pine Grove Inn; otherwise, it might be best to preserve your fond memories."
