Food Review: German Bistro

This is actually my first food review I've ever written, so I hope you enjoy it!
This is their Facebook image. I got to visit German Bistro in Tampa on MacDill Ave earlier tonight. I went to meet with some members of the USF German Culture Club, which I am the current president of, and can I just say 'WOW!'. I only ordered the Potatoe Pancakes and Sauerkraut, but oh man was it good! The potatoe pancakes were fresh and hot, the spicing of it was PERFECT! The sauerkraut was not the stuff you get in cans, either. I'm not sure if there is such a thing as fresh sauerkraut, but it was the best kind I've ever had. We then got to try their homemade apple strudel because they wanted to support the club. Now, I worked at a German Bakery in Fort Lauderdale one holiday season and this apple strudel was even better than that, even though I personally made it fresh (then again, that was before I could actually bake). The restaurant is a little smaller than I had expected, however the atmosphere was fantastic, the service even better and the food the best thing in the world. I dare to say that their potatoe pancakes were better than those from Willowtree Cafe in Sanford. But then again, I have not been able to compare them in the same day. Regardless, it was fantastic and I highly recommend it to anyone! Currently, they are also giving away free beer with food purchase. Not just any beer but German beer brands. So yeah, everyone should definitely should go check it out!
