Always a great place to go to. Excellent food and service and if Die Mannschaft is playing it is the only place to be in AB.
Always a good buffet. I have been many times and have never been disappointed.
Great Food,cozy atmosphere,friendly staff, interesting & fun events.I'll be back !!
I'm joyfully sharing that my husband and I had a blast last night! Food was delicious and we were between the deutsch carnival and Jazz presentation. Fun!
Love atmosphere and deutsche bier , Prost ;)
Hi everybody.
I'm Ernie, I used to be your German Chef at the German Canadian Culture Center.
I'm now retired for good and I'm NO longer responsible for the German Buffet.
Please stop e-mailing me your disappointment, as Barb and I enjoy our retirement with our Grand Kids.
Your German Chef

Sooooo much better!. I am really surprised to see the quality of food rise so dramatically in the last couple of months. Last year, the restaurant was the usual bland fare one would normally expect at a buffet-style restaurant: tasteless, unimaginative, rubbery and either too cold or too hot and overcooked because of the steam ovens. I have had the opportunity to go back FOUR times this year (2015), and find their food has much improved since last year. It's still buffet service (not much you can do about that), but the limited table service is friendly and helpful. food tables are better supervised, and the food is rotated more often to keep the try's full and fresh. The dishes consist of interesting, tasty and traditional German fare from all parts of Germany, and everything is well prepared. I had a German liver dumpling soup last time where the dumpling was light and fluffy, and the broth was delicious and ripe with flavour. The schnitzels are always tasty and delicious, the Bavarian meatballs are out of this world, and the salad bar is always freshly stocked and interesting. The food is overall very good, and the prices on both food and alcohol are extremely reasonable. You get definitely get your money's worth here! My only criticism is our that the room decor is a bit dated, and the desserts, while fresh and tasty, most often seem to come from Costco, but they do the main dishes very well now, and I recommend eating at the German club now to everyone I know who is looking for a reasonably-priced dining experience with fun people and excellent food.
While you might not get an out-of-the-park homerun (unless spaetzle is on the buffet that week), if you're on the hunt for a good option for a group with a fresh buffet, comforting food and a good variety, you might find just what you're looking for at the GCCA Restaurant.
Held my Baba’s celebration of life here in April. The staff were so accommodating and sweet. Food was really really delicious! Thank you ❤️
Staff are good and friendly. The place is a bit dated though. I understand heritage and all but it's a bit dark in places in there. All in all still a good place to hold an event.
Great good; venue is perfect for wedding receptions; banquets; business conferences etc. Very clean bathrooms; coat check available; friendly staff; excellent food
The GCCA was the perfect place to host my wedding. The hall comfortably seated 260 people. The buffet setup was great and everyone was eating in 30 minutes. The food was excellent and my guests especially loved the chicken schnitzel and roast beef. Tim was very helpful through the whole process. He was quick to respond to my questions and was able to accommodate my requests.
Hosted my father in laws 90th birthday here. It made party planning simple. The food was good. Accessibility for mobility challenged individuals was good. Staff were helpful and friendly from booking through the buffet meal to settling the bill. I would recommend it to anyone and will be back for supper some night soon.

We haven't been there in years. Went to Oktoberfest a few times. Had a blast. Great meal, friendly people and love all the cute door prizes. We went when the Emeralds played.
Really nice place. I went for a dinner and dance party. There were definitely not enough chairs as we had to stand awhile until my gal pals boyfriend brought 2 chairs, especially for myself and my friend whom I was there with. I should mention that we were invited as our friends were doing a special dance for charity.
Staff Christmas party! Consecutive years for our party here. That's a good sign 👍
It's a nice, cozy venue. The food was excellent. Highly recommended! I'd be happy to return again. Happy holidays!
A lovely place to eat German style food. The restaurant is open to the public. There is often a special menu for times such as Mother's Day or Thanksgiving. The dance hall is opened up as a second seating and buffet area in occasions such as those, where demand necessitates. As the menu on any night will be different, check the website to see what is offered and when.
Had a buffet lunch here on a Thursday. Lots of delicious fresh food, and great service. Definitely a hidden gem for a workday lunch. Great for large groups.
Had an incredible dinner with our family this evening. Been coming here for years. The food is better than ever. The prices are amazing value for the buffet.
Wonderful place and classic atmosphere.
We went to the oktoberfest celebrations and it was lots of fun! We will definitely be back next year!
Visited again this week. Restaurant is under new owners and he q
