Top 5 Chicago German Restaurants

There is no such thing as typical German cuisine, because German food varies from one region to another. But no matter where you are, German dishes are all prepared with delicacy and these restaurants listed on this article all do a good job in keeping the standard.

Chicago Brauhaus (http://www.chicagobrauhaus.com)

4732 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago 60625
Btwn W Lawrence & W Leland Ave

Beer, entertainment and food. What else would you want? You can rest assured that you will find your favorite pint of German imported beer. The entertainment is different every night. Sometimes there is a folk band and other times it ranges from rock and roll to polka. The best thing is that it is not too loud so you can still hear what the person next to you is talking about. The prices could not be better. The average price for an entree is 16 USD and the most expensive dish is Geschmorte Schweine Haxen which costs around 19 USD but it is also one of those dishes that is worth a try. It is basically a braised pork shank with sauerkraut and potato dumplings. But you can always go for the famous German sausages which are all 6.95USD. This restaurant is recommended to everyone who loves a lively crowd. The service is very attentive and always there to please their customers.
