The big hiccup was with the packaged goods that they sell. We bought Williams Stengels and they were way over date and dry and nasty. We also bought a couple of overpriced containers of Aromat that were over date. After we got home we noticed that on both items the price tags were put on over the expiration dates, which is wrong, in my opinion. I'm not saying "don't go there" but if you buy packaged goods be sure to check the dates.

We came in right at 3 and were notified that the kitchen was closed, but we were able to sit and have some beers while we waited for the kitchen to open.

We were extremely disappointed with our experience at Walburg German Restaurant…read more Before our visit, our group of 11 called ahead because I have celiac disease. We were celebrating a birthday, and I needed to know whether I could bring my own food since I cannot safely eat food prepared in a kitchen where there is a significant risk of gluten cross-contamination. We were told that bringing my own food would be okay. When we arrived, everyone sat down, and I began eating my salad. The manager, Michelle, came over and told me that I could not eat my own food there. I explained that I have celiac disease and cannot safely eat anything from the restaurant. She repeatedly told me that they take precautions for people with celiac disease. I tried to explain that, in a kitchen where flour is being used, there are serious cross-contact concerns, and I was not comfortable risking my health. After going back and forth, she eventually said, "I'll allow it this time." The way this situation was handled was incredibly upsetting. Michelle needs to educate herself much more thoroughly about celiac disease. This is not simply a dietary preference or an allergy where someone can necessarily "take precautions" and make a kitchen completely safe. Flour can become airborne, settle on surfaces, and create cross-contact risks. For someone with celiac disease, even small amounts of gluten can cause harm. What made this even more upsetting is that I am pregnant and have other significant dietary and medical considerations. I am not willing to gamble with my health or my baby's health just to eat at a restaurant. I ended up crying in the bathroom because of the way I was treated and the things that were said to me. I have never had an issue bringing my own food somewhere when I have explained my medical situation beforehand. This could have been handled with kindness and understanding. Instead, I was made to feel embarrassed and unwelcome after we had specifically called ahead and received permission. I sincerely hope the restaurant takes this opportunity to educate its staff about celiac disease, gluten cross-contact, and how to respectfully accommodate guests with serious medical dietary restrictions. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I will not be returning.

A warning: If you eat Weinerschnitzel in Vienna, you will be ruined for life on most of the…read moreversions you find elsewhere. But I was stupid, and hungry, and ordered what looked like the specialty of the house at Eve's Café. In fact, it looked like what they called a Wienerschnitzel was the basis for all sorts of schnitzel variations with different toppings and gravy. That should've been an extra warning for me. To be fair, the description on the menu said that what you would get was a pork chop, and that is what I got. It was a little bit tough, which I suspected in advance, watching the people at the next table, sewing on theirs. The breading was weird in a way that's hard to describe. It was somewhat over-seasoned, a little bit hard, and left an aftertaste that was slightly chemical. An even worse sin by Texas standards, it was small, as in the recommended meat portion size for healthy eating, about the size of my hand, minus the fingers. My side of onion rings had the same breading. And even though I am generally a gravy hog, I didn't especially care for the brown gravy that came with my meal. The German dill salad probably had some dill in it somewhere, but it was all drowned in so much mayonnaise-based dressing, I couldn't really taste it, and the whole thing turned into soup before I finished. This all really sounds terrible, but it wasn't actually terrible. I ate all of it except for the soupy salad, but it just never rose beyond competent, when I had gotten my hopes up for some good German food. As I looked around at what others were eating, I really wished I had ordered one of the fabulous-looking sandwiches, burgers, or bratwurst. Those are harder to mess up. The restaurant itself has a nice location on the Square in Lampasas, and a charming vibe. The Thursday lunch crowd was good sized so it looks like a popular local place. The service was very friendly and pretty quick--maybe little TOO quick, as if my schnitzel might've been waiting for me under a heat lamp. Once I'd finished, I was still a little hungry, and considered ordering a slice of their Black Forest Cake. But I have had Black Forest Cake in Bavaria, and I simply couldn't bear another disappointment.

Old German Bakery & Restaurant had been highly recommended as a must-visit when in Fredericksburg…read morebut I was incredibly disappointed by the overall experience. NOTES: - Reservations: no... walk in only - Parking: a few spots in front but free street parking nearby as well - Online ordering: available on their website through PopMenu for pickup - Closed Wednesday and Thursday THE HIGHS: - Arrived around 8:00 am on a Sunday morning and got seated right away - Coffee was decent... not the strongest but good enough - Workers were all very nice THE LOWS: - My poached eggs on the Country Benedict were cold... it seemed like they had sat for a while before being served (the sausage and gravy weren't hot either but they at least had a little warmth) - I wanted to get some items from the bakery but after being so disappointed in the breakfast I passed THE PRICE: Reasonably priced for the portion size - 2 Coffees ($3 each) - Country Benedict ($15.25) - Holstein Schnitzel ($18.75) - German Pancake ($6.75) - Opa's Smoked Sausage Link ($5) BEST BITES: - Opa's smoked sausage link (flavorful and juicy) THE VERDICT: This was my first visit to Old German Bakery & Restaurant after seeing it recommended online by so many people but I left wishing I had eaten breakfast somewhere else. Maybe the bakery is better than the breakfast but I won't be recommending it to anyone I know visiting Fredericksburg.

Lots of natural lighting. Candle on the table and nice dishware elevated the ambiance. Started with the sauerkraut balls for appetizer. Lovely. I'm a skeptic with fried foods and the breading was light with a large portion of kraut and sausage inside. The mustard crema balanced it nicely. If I come back, I'll ask for a couple of pickles with it. Entrees: we ordered a wurst plate and a duck schnitzel to share between two adults. It was the perfect balance of richness with homemade vinegar sides to balance. Service was warm and professional. Exactly what I expect for the price point. Waiter was knowledgeable about the food and pleasant without being too involved (given that we were the only table at the time). Waters were never dry and the seating was comfortable. We didn't drink but it would be a nice place to hang with a cocktail. Impressive drink menu.

BEST BITES: - Sauerkraut balls (crispy but not oily and so incredibly flavorful) - Duck schnitzel (duck breast is tender and crispy without being oily, the käsespätzle is creamy, and the kirsch demi-glacé is so unique) THE VERDICT: This was my first visit to Otto's after seeing it recommended online by so many people so it was a must try while visiting Fredericksburg. It ended up being my favorite dinner I had there and I've already recommended it to others because it was that good!
