I have to say that during my time in the US, I haven't had any real good German food other than the one my American friends and I prepared at home.

The stuff that restaurants sold as German was too American. It's liking going to a Chinese restaurant outside a Chinese neighborhood.

I didn't walk in but I assume the Hofbräuhaus in Las Vegas has decent German food as well!
Hofbrauhaus in Vegas is very good. So too is Karl Ratzsch's in Milwaukee.

I imagine German food stateside isn't what it is in most of Germany. Only German food I've had there was at Fruh in Cologne. It was fine, but, IMHO, not better or worse than anything I've had here.
