The spot is such a wonderful place to be. It's very comfortable and lovely and the staff is absolutely amazing. Excellent service. The only thing that didn't quite meet expectations was the food. The price is a bit higher but I was thinking that the food would then be a bit yummier. We had the crab dip, the pretzel, and the pork schnitzel. The drinks were very good though.

Overall cool vibes - great atmosphere and great music in the evening. Great service- Mari was awesome handling our reservation and greeting us. I felt very welcome and it was quite the hospitable place. Service was quick even during busy Saturday night during Restaurant Week. The food was incredible! I look forward to coming back and trying more menu items. Recommend: German pretzel, Slated Caramel dessert, Crab toast, Raclette, Knachwurst, Spaetzle caccio e pepe, and of course das Boots of bier. Enjoyed the Sunni Kolsh and the Shnitzengiggles hehe Definitely check this place out!!!

I’ve had this spot bookmarked for a while and finally made it for dinner. My only regret is not going sooner! Tried the oysters, beef croquettes, schnitzel, and cacio e Pepe and all were excellent. Also liked the decor/ design aesthetic very cozy and modern! Will def be back for brunch sometime.

This place has a great soundtrack. I love the mix of their fun atmosphere with decadent menu items. We started with the broccolini and oysters, then moved to a full slab of ribs with white bbq sauce, and ended with desserts. Whenever I ordered a beer, the server asked if I "just wanted the 16oz", because that's their smallest serving. In proper German tradition, they also had a stein or a boot of beer available. Service was friendly and attentive, with other staff glad to jump in to grab anything we needed, and our desserts brought out by someone from the kitchen even.

The services were fantastic! The staffs there were kind and attentive! The portion per dish was light, so you may want to order more dishes. Not a single complaint about the restaurant. A restaurant I would probably revisit!

German and soul food is a rare combination but when done right it creates a unique experience. A michelin bib-gourmand and a recommendation from a co-worker, Funkenhausen was a pretty easy choice for our office group get together party. Our large group of 10 was looked after really well and the management was very accommodating of our last minute requests with reservation time and party size changes. We sat right by the open kitchen watching the experts exhibit their culinary skills. Food was delectable and we loved the stories of the recipes and the details of the preparation enunciated gracefully by our server. Beer selection lived up to the expectation and overall we had a really good time.

Funkenhausen came recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. The menu is rather abbreviated but the selections do not disappoint. I like that it’s not overflowing with choice. The food was absolutely delicious. We tried the pretzel, brat, and spätzle for appetizers and then I had the chicken schnitzel as an entree. Dinner portions were definitely adequate. The atmosphere is really chique with some German props in good taste placed through the restaurant. Five stars in my book!

Overall a nice space, but didn't live up to my expectations. I came with a group of friends on a Monday night. The half off bottle of wine deal was pretty great, but our waiter strangely kept the bottle away from the table so we always had to ask him for a refill. We ordered two pretzels to share as a group. I really liked the white BBQ sauce, but the pretzel itself was a bit dry. My friends seemed to like their own dishes, especially the surfenturfen. However, I was less than impressed with my spare ribs. Though they were appropriately tender, the dish lacked any bold or memorable flavors. I might return but I would definitely order something else if I did.

A truly amazing restaurant, with some of the most delicious food and the kindest waitstaff. Our experience was perfect: we ordered many drinks and many dishes, and they were all delightful. Thank you, Funkenhausen, for an enjoyable and a one-of-a-kind dining experience!
