Best birthday dinner in a long time,and best German food restaurant, hands down. Service was prompt, server regularly checked on us, felt well treated. Highly recommend!

Food was delicious. Portions were tiny. Service was next level slow.

The food first off is amazing. They really spend time figuring out the right ingredients and combinations to make it a great tasting experience, not just a place to eat.

The service is wonderful! They are attentive, explain the menu well and are quick to get you anything you may want.

Bonus points for this business because it was my wife's birthday and I special ordered a cake on short notice. They made it for me and I was able to pick it up for her birthday. It was very special and I greatly appreciated it.

If you haven't tried this restaurant, you're definitely missing out and you need to change that ASAP.

Highly mediocre. The atmosphere is great, service is pretty damn good, but the food is just mediocre. We had the poutine, which was super flavorful, and tasted great, but even the fries not covered in gravy were super soggy. If the fries were crispy, 11/10, as is 7/10. I had the wild boar, awful. So over cooked it was like sawdust, and lacked any flavor. Best part of the dish was the spatzel, which is…just spatzel.

Overall, a super mediocre night out for $200. I’ve heard nothing but great reviews of Affäre, and left highly disappointed.

Not for me, had to walk out. Was off put by the person greeting us, the way he selected our seating as well as his attire. Noticed there was no attire code amongst the servers either, and communication was quite awkward between them, not to mention everyone had a frown. With the occasion being that it was my wife's birthday I couldn't wait and risk the food being as dismal as the whole vibe.

We had the tasting menu with the wine and beer pairings, everything was delightful. The scallop ceviche, squash soup, short ribs were all cooked well, balanced flavors. We’ll definitely be back!

My wife and I haven't eaten here in several years. I have to say I kind of forgot about the place. It's going to definitely be back on our regular rotation. The food was excellent, great ambiance with plenty of space and our server was awesome. I had the bacon-wrapped trout and it was one of the best things I've had this year. Our server really knew the menu and gave us great recommendations.

Incredible food and service. First time I have had cream of salsify soup and loved it. Homemade limoncello best in the City.

I would give this restaurant 100 stars. The food is excellent. The Jager Schnitzel was crispy and the meat was tender. The duck breast was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend the morels and white asparagus. On top of truly wonderful cuisine, the service was outstanding.

Had a wonderful night here with the girls. The staff was friendly and attentive, without being overwhelming, and our server always came by at just the right times to refill water or check on us. The recommended dishes were absolutely wonderful, and I was in love with the veal tips and spätzle that I had. So excited for a restaurant with German cuisine that isn't too greasy and has just the right amount of flavor and proteins. The beer selection was also very nice. Will definitely be coming back again

10 star meal and one of the best I've ever had in my life. I got the tasting menu and put myself in the chef's hands. 1000% recommended. Katie (sorry if I'm wrong) made me feel like I was the only person she was concerned with, even while being very busy otherwise. Great service, phenomenal food and an extensive drink menu I didn't explore. Their inside seating was beautiful, they had a space for bigger parties and the nicest looking patio. Come and let them spoil you.
