    Goulash. Soooo good.
    Jeffrey Z.

    I loved this place, and now I'm so disappointed. 6:21pm, Wednesday. Walked in to the restaurant, ghost town, didn't see anyone. We walked around the tables, nothing. Door was unlocked. We think they're open? So we walked into Murphy's, saw a bartender and two servers sitting at a table. No one greeted us, we sat our selves, and sat, and sat. If you're not interested in acknowledging a customer, it really made me concerned over the rest of my experience. So we walked out. I gave them two stars because I really love this place. Don't know if I'll be back.

    Food was excellent, service was great! Very laid back relaxing atmosphere. Will definitely be back soon! Make this a must stop if you're passing through Bryan Tx!!!

    Great little German gem in Bryan! Food, service and ambience get 5 stars for authenticity! If you've been to Germany, this is the real deal.

    Our $12 pretzels, they ran out of cheese.

    My daughter wants to eat German food, I look on Yelp of course and Bavarian Brauhaus looks like it got good reviews for the food, so we go check it out. We go in. Kid seats us at the weirdest table right in the middle of the bar area. It is the only high table and we feel oddly exposed there. So I ask if we can sit in one of the regular tables and we move. I'm still wondering why he sat us in odd place when there were many empty tables. Only 3 other tables had people. We order the pretzels with cheese sauce to start, guy who seated us was also our waiter tells us that they ran out of cheese sauce, would mustard be ok? Sure. Pretzels come out with mustard, they were ok. Same as any other pretzel app. My daughter order some kind of breaded pork with cream sauce and spaetzle. It was bad. I mean it smelled like it went bad. I ordered the bratdog with spaetzle and potato salad on the side. I took a couple of bites, it was ok but not grilled like the menu stated. The German potato salad was not good. I've had plenty of German potato salad, believe me, this was not good. The spaetzle was ok and so were my fries. My other daughter had a Caesar salad and mashed potatoes. The salad was some lettuce, a little cheese and 8 million croutons, no dressing. The mashed potatoes was the potato salad mashed up a little. The guy that sat us and was our waiter was either afraid of us or hated us for asking to move tables because her just kept running by our table and it was hard to get his attention. I heard him checking in and talking to the table behind us and he was friendly to them. We had to ask for water 3 times and it was extremely difficult to get his attention for the water and the dressing for the salad. Maybe this place is really just a bar or maybe it is on its way to going out of but there was something definitely wrong and im not understanding how it got decent reviews for the food. I would not have even cared that we were ignored if the food had been edible but it wasn't and why did I have to pay $12 for 2 pretzels when we didn't even get cheese sauce? 2 pretzels cost more than my entree! We each got a peppermint patty with the check. It was good. I don't know. The whole thing and even the good reviews here on yelp were extremely confusing. One even compared the food to what he had eaten in Germany. I can promise anyone who is reading this review, that and the other 5 star reviews are a lie. And yes, I have been to Germany.

    This place was great, definitely a hidden gem in Bryan. The food portions are an awesome deal for the price, but the beer is definitely overpriced. The ambiance was great and the service was super friendly.

    I have been wanting to visit this place for a while, but somehow I never did. Today was my first visit and I fell in love with this place. The interior offers a very cozy Bavarian vibe, and the food is so good! We started with a bratwurst sampler from the appetizer. It offers 3 kinds of sausages plus sauerkraut and potato salad. The schnitzel is so crispy outside and juicy inside. I swapped spätzle for sauerkraut again. The portion size is very generous, and it is delicious. Oh the bread pudding! I don't have a sweet tooth but I couldn't put it down. It's so rich in flavor yet not overwhelming. We ended up cleaning every single plate today. We loved our server today. She's super friendly and extremely helpful in making recommendations. We are definitely coming back again, and we want to introduce this place to more of our friends! Such a hidden gem!

    Best German food I've had - hands down. My roommate and I tried Bavarian Brauhaus for the first time just before we graduate because we had heard great things, and I wish I had tried it sooner! The schnitzel was delicious, well seasoned, huge, and very crispy! The Saurkraut was great (warm, which threw me off at first), and I liked the Spaetzle. My roommate got some potatoes that were delicious as well! The place is super cute and very festive, and my roommate liked the beer. The service was great and food came out quick!

    This place is our new date night stop! Delicious food, great authentic ambiance, and super friendly wait staff.

    Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. I heard many good things about this place so I made sure to check it out when I was in Bryan. It did not disappoint. I had a schnitzel with paparika gravy and a stein of German beer. The dessert was not as good as the entree (the chocolate cake was a little dry in my opinion), but overall my dining experience here was excellent. Highly recommend

Our waitress hustled even though it was a chill lunch crowd. The bar itself has this cozy (not wide) historic downtown vibe with brick and wood and all the kind of stuff you see in those hip Austin places people brag about. This is why you give everyone a 2nd chance. We'll be back!

    Came here for the first time with my wife celebrating our 17th year wedding anniversary…read more Appetizers: Jumbo Lump Crab Cake- tons of fresh crab meat that was flavorful. Escargot Stuffed Mushrooms- a bit tiny, but packed with buttery goodness. Entrees: A5 Wagyu Flat Iron- this was a special and it wasn't tender enough to cut with just a fork like I've experienced, but still pretty tender and very juicy. Seasoned perfect to eat by itself, but it came with 4 different restaurant-made steak sauces. Mesquite Smoked Short Ribs- very tender and can be torn to shreds with a fork. Comes with mash potatoes and gravy and some crispy noodles for texture. Very flavorful. Sides: Maple Bacon Pecan Brussel Sprouts- very delicious and flavorful. Smoked Mashed Potatoes- very thick and smokey, but delicious. Definitely need some water lol. Poblano Creamed Corn- my wife liked this, but I didn't care for that creamy corn texture lol. Dessert: Marie Antoinette Cake- chocolate mousse cake that was perfectly rich with some kind of raspberry or berry drizzle. Also came with these super delicious alcoholic infused strawberries that paired super well. Overall, it was a pricey dinner, but not as pricey as I thought. Definitely had a great time and worth the price and experience. The restaurant ambience was dim and cabin-like setting with lots of beautiful decor. Our waiter, Gabriel was super friendly and helpful. He recommended a lot of our dishes tonight. Lots of parking and they also offer complimentary valet services.

And the Mash Madness whiskey competition is such a cool touch -- blind tasting between A and B like March Madness for bourbon. Makes it even more fun.
