   Food was delicious and the service was great my only compliment is the table was to close to the kitchen and bar so very busy and loud

   I’ve had better there. Menu is dwindling and little that I wanted to eat. Disappointed that the Valentine’s or game menu was not available when we went. Service was great as usual.

   A bowl of delicious goulash with good bread, and the richest, most flavorful, robust coffee ever, make for a perfect and satisfying lunch on a budget! The food, as always, is outstanding. There are but a few (perhaps petty) reasons for not giving 5 stars across the board: 1. The bread rolls were really good, though serving them warm would make a very big and impressionable difference. There’s something comforting about butter melting into warm bread, so cold bread rolls are disappointing. It’s all about attention to detail. 2. The service was very good — but not exceptional. There was some waiting to get past that accounts for 4, not 5 stars. The Student Prince Prince offers unparalleled, authentic old world charm that is thankfully lovingly preserved. What a wonderful New England landmark! Thank you! Looking forward to another visit.

   When I called the restaurant prior to going, I was told that there would be a selection of game on the menu as there has been in many other February. That is, besides the new big game dinners that the restaurant hosts. There was only one item when we got there, a bison burger. Also, menu items that were featured on the website were very much out of date with what was actually being served at the restaurant.

   Perfect night out for some delicious German food. The ambience takes you to Germany in a warm and cozy old fashion way decorated with wood tones, steins, and warm lighting. The staff is friendly and efficient. The beverages both beer and wine include a wide selection. A do not miss spot if you’re in the area.

   Much like a German beer garden, the place can be noisy. Also, they ran out of sauerbratten on a busy Saturday evening.
