Prost is a very hit-or-miss restaurant in Lincoln Park on N Lincoln Ave between Sheffield Ave and Wrightwood Ave specializing in German cuisine.
They advertised a special one day that I really wanted, and when we went in that day and I wanted to order it, the server knew nothing about it, even as posters hung around the restaurant as ads for it. That was weird.
We ordered anyway. My partner and I shared 2 dishes: Potato Pancakes, which are 4 hand-shredded pancakes served with apple butter and sour cream, as well as Cheesy Spatzle, which is macaroni and cheese baked with Emmentaler Swiss and Hooks cheddar cheeses with some toasted breadcrumbs on top.
My partner remarked that everything tasted too sweet, but I know that's just the mark of a German dish. I'll say that the apple butter and sour cream for the pancakes was on the light side, but other than that, it was fine. I'm still upset that I couldn't order the highly marketed special that I looked forward to.
Service wasn't very attentive, but definitely kind.
I'm been here before for drinks and the Pretzel that's served with a weird, lumpy beer cheese and mustard. None of it's very special for me.
