Modern German restaurant incorporating Southern influences.
Though overhead beams and dangling brass lights evoke a beer hall effect and the menu features Bavarian pretzels and spaetzle, Mark Steuer’s latest isn’t your standard German restaurant. The chef takes liberties—often incorporating Southern influence—with those dishes, and also delves into large-format offerings. The result is a spirited endeavor that takes food seriously but shakes up an over-played genre.
