Dear GASTHAUS Guests
We would like to thank you for your loyal support, especially during the past months when we were only able to offer Curbside Take Out
Your patronage and kind messages, which we have received, mean the world to us as we had to navigate our revised service to you.
Many of you have been asking us when we would reopen the restaurant for indoor dining. We are happy to inform you, that we plan to open the dining room for regular hours on
June 30th. @ 6.00 pm
while adhering to current CDC guidelines for restaurants.
Our Curbside Take Out service will continue indefinitely, alongside the indoor dining service.
***We will be closed for in-house cleaning and reorganizing the week of June 23-27, but will be available to take calls for reservations then.***
In order to maintain a safe and healthy dining experience, we have to limit our seating. Face masks will be worn by our staff and frequent sanitizing procedures will be implemented throughout the evening.
Group reservations are limited to 8 guests of the same household. We kindly request the use of face masks when moving about the restaurant, or when using the restrooms.
Menus will be available, but we encourage guests to view our menu online via this blog https://gasthaus.wordpress.com/menu/
As seating is limited, we would ask our guests to please make reservations via phone at 502-899-7177 for our 6pm or 8:15pm seating. Tuesdays through Saturdays.
Please respect the social distancing guidelines.
We thank you for your understanding, support and friendship.

About
A Little Gasthaus History
***The Gasthaus German Restaurant is no longer open for business – Thank you for 28 years***
On December 18th, 1993, after months of remodeling, the Greipel Family, all born and raised in Germany, except the oldest daughter Simone (born in London, England), finally opened the “Gasthaus” at its present location.
Executive chef/owner Michael Greipel together with his kitchen team, create authentic dishes from Old World recipes. Annemarie Greipel, her daughter Nina and the friendly staff are responsible for taking care of the guests, many of them regulars.
Since opening in 1993, the menu has grown from a few items to a large selection. Everything is made from scratch, using only the finest and freshest ingredients. Michael handpicks all his meats, fruits and vegetables daily. Annemarie and her daughter Nina make all the desserts daily, in house from family recipes.
While most of the entrees are ‘a la carte’, special requests are gladly accommodated after a short consultation with the chefs.
Parties and take-out orders are welcomed.
The Gasthaus can seat approximately 60-70 people. The décor, which includes two ‘Chalets,’ is a mixture of family pictures and personal items from the Greipel’s home in Germany (Bochum) and gifts from guests. A family member painted the two murals on the walls. The female servers, several of them from Germany or Europe, wear traditional Dirndl dresses.
The whole restaurant is available for private parties or special occasions. There has even been a real wedding in one of the ‘Chalets’. For many years ‘Wave 3’ TV (NBC affiliate) has broadcast a live show from the restaurant.
The Gasthaus Team has taken part in cooking demonstrations on TV as well as the ‘Home and Garden Show’.
The Gasthaus consistently receives positive reviews from newspapers and magazines. The ‘Guide to the Best Restaurants in America’ has named the Gasthaus ‘The Best German Restaurant’ in Louisville for 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016.
People visit from all over America and the world, which the guest books confirm. The whole Gasthaus Team, many of them having been there since ‘day one,’ take great pride in everything they do.
The Gasthaus is conveniently located on the corner of I-264 (Watterson Express Way), Brownsboro Road and Rudy Lane. The address is 4812 Brownsboro Center, Louisville, Ky 40207.
We are currently close for in-house dining as we are searching for a buyer with a German Heart to take over the restaurant. We thank you for your understanding!
