"Can I give this place 7 stars? No? Drats; it's deserving. The dining experience at German Bistro 2 is outstanding. Forewarning: they only take cash. so hit the ATM before dinner. They're a small establishment so you may want to call for reservations. Also, they serve only bottled beer, but great German labels. Now onto the important part, the food.In a word: AMAZING. They start you with homemade bread and herbed butter. Crusty on the outside, soft delicious on the inside. A bowl of peppery cole slaw comes along to start your meal. If you think the free starters sound good, just wait.The menu is small but every dish is made to order, and clearly made by hand. We had the special: beef rouladen with spaetzle noodles gravy, and potato pancakes (a menu staple). The beef was fork-tender and served with a rich wine gravy. Spaetzle was light buttery, made served in a traditional German manner. The potato pancakes were unlike anything else I've tasted and easily the best I've ever had. They are HUGE, thick, and dense. The potato pancakes must be deep-fried because they have a crisp crust but are moist inside. Served with sour cream apple sauce, these will be the best you'll ever had as well.The dessert menu looks incredible but we were unable to try it. The portion sizes are very generous, and we had no room for dessert at the end of the meal.Service was very good, and very friendly. This is a small, local, family-owned operated joint that is worth any every rave review. We will be going back for sauerbraten schnitzel, no doubt. If you like stick-to-your-ribs comfort food and German fare in particular, this is your spot. If you don't yet, expand your palette stop in; you'll be glad you did!!"
