So I went
It's kinda crappy.
The food is expensive, $8 for a sausage.
Drinks are also expensive, about $6+$4 deposit for a tiny mug of mulled wine.
The best tasting drink was the non-alcoholic cinnamon and apple drink.
The 2nd best was the mulled wine.
The alcoholic apple drink tasted like medicine.

its boring..parkings a bitch..overpriced beer and sausages..It takes 2 minutes to walk around the whole thing..it's super crowded on the weekends..u have to line up twice for alcohol and put a deposit down for mugs.
Its like a German nightmarket but worse. It's outdoors so when so it's either too cold or too wet out.
They have the same bratwurst at japadog.

Worth it if you bought the groupon. ($9 for 2 people entry + 2 mugs)
If not, then it's a still a good date. Atleast she/he can't say you never did anything christmasy.
I parked in Chinatown at the usual free spots then walked.
