This place was busy. Servers and kitchen were great. All the tables were full for Saturday breakfast. Food - large portions of perfectly cooked German food was coming out. We loved the eggs Benedict. They put a nice twist on your standard breakfast. Looking forward to going back.

I went with a co-worker for a weekend breakfast as we heard locally about this place. It was busy, cozy, and buzzing with excitement! It's a real mom & pop sort of place, very casual. The portions were huge, lots of great options for breakfast from bacon-laden crepes and German potato pancakes and bratwurst to fluffy french toast with yummy... More

We rolled out of this restaurant without being able to complete the huge portions, and were still full the next morning! Dessert was simply TO DIE FOR. In fact, I think next time we are just going for the dessert. YUM!

3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 April 2013

The food was ok & the service was ok. We found the food a little bland and not very authentic. Grew-up on German & Austrian food and it all seemed a little short of being "great". It seemed like something with missing with every dish. Sorry but the schnitzel was very greasy & the strudle was soggy.

I really love this restaurant. I love going for breakfast for one of their monster-sized pancakes, though sometimes I'll have their yummy eggs benedict. Be prepared for huge servings, but the food is really tasty and authentic. My dad used to live in Germany and loves eating here. If you're lucky enough to get to go there while Ernie is... More

VERY loud due to music, kitchen noise and so many people, crowded, poorly decorated, sitting too close to other people, food was nothing special.

We were there two times (breakfast and lunch) and will go again. Food, service, location, interior are great! The price is totally okay for what you get (generous portions). You can't definitely be hungry after leavin' Barb & Ernie's. Would recommend it for everyone!
