Great German food. I lived in Germany for 3 years and Haus Murphy's food tasted like classic German flavors. The jaeger schnitzel was crisp and light flavors. We enjoyed the pretzel with beer cheese and the curry wurst appetizers too. Will return with more family soon.

We were promptly greeted upon arrival, but unfortunately, we were seated in the back room bar area, which felt more like an overflow warehouse.
While I understand the building's age might contribute to the smell, the dirty floors and dust were unacceptable. The place looked neglected, as if the owners didn't care about its appearance.
There's a fine line between having a restaurant with charm and character and one that looks outdated and unkempt. I've visited other European-themed restaurants with even more decor, yet they manage to stay clean-- or think Cracker Barrel, for an easy example. They have charm and they are clean, and it looks like a real restaurant not an old Wearhouse with broken tables.
The limited street parking is another drawback, making it less likely for me to return. The customer service was also disappointing. Our waitress was unfriendly and answered questions with a hint of attitude. When I ordered a beer flight, she bluntly informed me they no longer offer them, despite it being on the menu. She explained they didn't have enough glasses and couldn't serve it without causing issues with other tables. When I inquired about the differences between two beers on the menu, she said they were out of stock. After several more questions, I finally settled on a Paulaner.
It was frustrating to see items on the menu that weren't available, and instead of me having to ask all the questions, the waitress should have proactively suggested alternatives. On a positive note, the beer and the schnitzel sampler I ordered were good. However I would have liked more of the schnitzel sauce because it was not enough to taste and you end up tasting just the schnitzel.

So nice and beyond amazing service!!!!!
My mom wanted German food last minute after going to the Japanese gardens. So glad I found this place. It reminds me of the German like town near Italy where I live. (Northern Italy.) We were thrilled with our food. Will definitely be going back. On top of that they were so attentive and kind. ❤️ must bring my husband here. He'll be happy to know there's restaurants he'll love here too.
My mom also loved tge polka cd!!! She's polish. So the music makes her very happy.

I was craving German food, so thought I would give it a return. This place is really run down and in need of a refresh. There were food scraps and trash on the
floor. Looks like they just didn't clean the
mess from the previous table. The food was average, but maybe I ordered wrong. I got a schnitzel and should have probably got a bratwurst. The service was also ok and it took a while to order and receive our food. I wouldn't go back unless I happened to be in the area.

This is my third time coming, and every time, the food and atmosphere amazes. The interior feels very homey and welcoming and the staff is super attentive (our server checked in on a regular basis for ordering and was diligent in replenishing our table’s waters). We ordered our usual favorites, the Wiener schnitzel and Schnitzel sandwich for entrees and the mushrooms and potato puffs for the appetizers. Definitely work a visit if near the Downtown Glendale area.

My husband lived in Germany for a few years and we had been wanting to try this place for a while! We were excited to finally make it there, but we were a bit disappointed. It was a late lunch on Sunday and it was not very busy. We noticed immediately this place needs a good cleaning. The table next to us was cleaned and open, but the floor under it was covered in trash and food remnants. The walls need painted, and the vents/fixtures were dusty. We asked about a specialty German item they had on the menu and the waitress told us it was "weird" and definitely steered us away from it, which was odd. The food was mediocre, and perhaps with a better atmosphere, we would go back and try other items... but it did not seem worth it. I got the German meatloaf sandwich and my husband got a pork schnitzel. Neither of us finished our plates. Perhaps it was an off day.
