Himmel's

Everything here was excellent. The authentic German decor and atmosphere was great. Live music was perfect with the selection just loud enough but perfect for conversation. German food was excellent and large portions. The Wurst Platter had excellent kassler chop that was very tender, brat, spaetzle and sauerkraut superb. My husband had the Weiner Schnitzel which was as good as the best restaurants in Germany. My girlfriend had the Sauerbraten, which she loved and the red cabbage which was super. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Amazing little spot! They bake their pretzel bread daily which is so fresh and tasty, the perfect way to start a meal. Their liver dumpling soup is so authentic I could swear I was eating sitting in the Marienplatz. The pork knuckle, Schweinshaxe, is so crispy and well cooked. Tasty, but takes a good amount of time to cook. But that's okay, because you can relax with a half liter or liter of your favorite German and Austrian export brews. Honestly, come here if you're looking for good German food, and great hospitality.

Omg this place is so good!!! the staffs are very friendly and attentive. It was my first time there so I ordered the 2 things I really wanted to try: pizza and pork shank. the pizza is thin crust and cripy but gooey with cheese. sauce is flavorful and just the right amount. if you are eating alone it's the perfect portion. if you are sharing it's just enough so everyone can try it and something else on the menu. the pork shank, if you have not tried it, you must try it! it's absolutely tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. the best part—it peels right off the bone!!!! I was expecting a bit struggle but no, it was so easy to peel off, plus, if you ever watch anime, and see those big piece of meat chunks 🍖 yeas this will make you feel like you checked an item off your bucket list lol it comes with pickled cabbage which was really refreshing paired with mushroom gravy and dumplings, which is small round shaped and has a yam texture to it. it's really good. eating both definitely is a bit much for 1 person, maybe I'm just getting old 😂 they also have a mother's day buffet. just a wonderful establishment through and out.

The best of what Lincoln Square has to offer. The portions are huge and the food is so high quality and just delicious. It feels home made in the best way. The staff is wonderful, helpful, friendly and kind. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. I haven’t tried the pizza yet but it’s at the top of my list.

This restaurant earns a perfect score in every single category. The food: absolutely perfect, right down to the last bite. The service: out of this world -- quite possibly the best we've ever had. And the ambiance: the name of the place says it all -- Himmel, or Heaven in English. My husband loved his Hühnerschnitzel, Rosti, and vegetables. My Wienerschnitzel and Deutscherkartoffelsalat were very good, but the Rotkraut stole the show. I finally found my mom's recipe in a restaurant: red cabbage, apples, cinnamon, and raisins, with a hint of bacon for flavoring. The best part were the talented musicians and the welcoming owners and staff. The lead guitarist was exceptionally talented, and his vocals provided the perfect ambiance for the occasion. We also enjoyed meeting Alex, Miss Lynn, Miss Carol, and Miss Diane. They really welcomed us like family. We've definitely found our new favorite restaurant.
