    Schweinshaxn / Pork hock
    Prashant K.

    Probably the most authentic Bierhalle in North America - and the most authentic tasting German food I have had since leaving Germany a year ago. If you are German, head here to dig into an authentic Schweinshaxn and excellent Helles beer from Munich....topped with the best Biersoße (beer sauce) I have tasted on this continent. I am reading other reviews here from Canadians and Americans - some are harsh....and I don't get it. I come from Germany and all I can say that I have been in Washington DC and other "German" places recommended by other reviewers and have been severely disappointed..... NOTHING tasted like here.... Deutsches Haus transports you to Munich!

    Feast For Two Wednesday Special. Deutsches Haus is only three blocks from where we live. I was always intrigued by the block-long lineups to get into this place during World Cup season. I had also heard about their large meat platters, so it was time for me to loosen my belt and take a crack at it. Their Feast For Two at about $33 sounds expensive until you add up the cost of the items a la carte. The Feast includes a half portion of pork hock, a slice of ham, two types of sausages, a schnitzel all sitting on top of a portion of sauerkraut and pasta. They provide a dish of fresh mustard on the side. This is a very good way to sample several German specialties all at the same time. The pork hock was tender on the inside, and crispy on the outside. It tasted almost like stewed beef and the meat fell off the bone, it was that soft. The schnitzel was very crispy, but not oily at all. The two different types of sausages were juicy and distinct in flavor. While I'm not a sausage fan, I certainly appreciated the German approach to making sausages. The ham was also tender and very different from the typical Christmas ham that I am accustomed to. We finished off our meal with a "Bee Sting Cake" which was simply amazing. As the name implies, this cake is very sweet, likely drizzled with honey or syrup. I've never had something quite like this, so this was the highlight of our visit. You must try this cake! Servers were friendly, but it got very busy quickly after we arrived and we had to sometimes wait a while to be attended to. Interestingly, 80% of the guests the evening we were there were Chinese! This usually implies that the restaurant offers good value, good food or both. While I can't see myself coming here on a regular basis due to having to keep my cholesterol in check, it was fun to try something new. Book in advance to guarantee seating.

    Our friends wanted to try a typical German dinner and who doesn't love a Shnitzel! So I was in! The Deutsches Haus is definitely German! With plenty of parking in the back and a lot of available seating, it's a great place for groups. We went with 10 others on Tuesday, which is Schnitzel special night! For $14.99 you get two large schnitzels with spaetzel, cabbage, sauerkraut and gravy! Me and my husband decided to instead share the feast for two which had 2 schnitzels, 2 sausages, a large pork hock, spaetzel, cabbage and sauerkraut. Because I have a wheat allergy, I asked for my schnitzel with no breading and for roast potatoes. They were so easily accommodating and everything tasted great! It's not food I would have on a regular basis, but for something different, it was a great place to try! And I will consider it for my next group dinner!

    The place seems a little bit dated from the outside to inside, but it looks like a fun place to hang out with friends and have great German beer. I love their beer here (although I'm not a fan of beer). The food was quite heavy and pretty average.

    Sauces for platter
    Fiona A.

    Came here for a large group dinner. The servers were attentive and always made sure we had everything we needed. Most of us ordered the feast for 2 to share between couples. It comes with 2 sausages and 2 pieces of meatloaf which were so delicious and flavorful. Also came with the platter, 2 schnitzels and half pork hock which was just OK. Schnitzel was kind of dry and the pork hock skin was very chewy. They have their own parking lot, so plenty of parking spaces. Taste: 3/5 Service: 4/5 Value: 3/5

    Meat platter
    Kenji K.

    We came here to celebrate and have their meat platter (which had Schnitizle, some sort of ham, sausages (of course), pock hock, sour crout, and some mysterious noodles. Now that I look it up, it might have been the $88 platter: "pork hock, schnitzel, bavarian meatloaf, and assorted sausages. Served with spatzle, red cabbage and sauerkraut" on their website. It's definitely enough for four or more people! It's all pork, but it was very delicious at first, but I have a tendency to over eat, and that's when it starts to feel greasy, so don't over do it. The restaurant is close to a bus stop, the service is good, and the atmosphere is very pleasant as well. The only annoying thing is the loud dancing upstairs that is quite repetitive! Also, it's a great place to talk over some pork and beer!

    Thursday Special: 1/2 pork hock with sauerkraut and potatoes ($14.99)
    Angel L.

    The boyfriend and I heard about their pork hocks, and decided to venture in today for their Thursday special. You get a pretty big plate of food for $14.99, which includes 1/2 a pork hock, sauerkraut, and roasted potatoes. I personally found the pork hock to be lacking in flavour, and had to dunk every chunk of meat into the accompanying sauce. The skin was very tough and hard to chew, as it sticks to your teeth the more you chew. Sauerkraut was decent (I'm not German, so I can't really judge), but the highlight of the dish was the potatoes. Light and fluffy with crispy skin! Based on other reviews, we also ordered the Bee Sting Cake. The cake itself was very moist, whipped cream tasted very fresh, and the overall combination was quite delicious! This is the reason why I'm bumping the review up to 3 stars instead of 2. At $6.50 per slice though, it's quite pricey.

    Don't get sucked in by the Special. Get the full pork hock. I've wanted to come here for a long time. Again, if you want to eat at a time when other people want to eat, make reservations. When we walked in, I didn't think we would need them because their parking lot was empty, but it soon filled up. Most of the tables were reserved. People who walked in were sitting at the bar waiting a while for a table. We walked in the door from the 33rd Ave parking lot. The hostess stand isn't that big, but it has a big guest book. You need to sign in as a guest to partake in the porky goodness. Table for four please! After we are seated, the bread comes. It's "healthy" bread. By that, I mean it looks like the granola bars my hubby buys- nuts and seeds held together with other healthy ingredients. I find it very hard. My one friend seems to enjoy it. The other diner orders a pretzel because she wanted bread... just not the healthy free one. We ended up ordering the full pork hock and sharing. See, the Thursday Special is a half pork hock for $12.99, but then the full order is $24. You end up saving $2 by sharing and that's money better spent on let's say, the sausage sampler? Let's start with that... the sausage sampler. I was expecting way more sausage than what came. There was an assortment (about 6) plus sauces. For $12 I was expecting at least full sized... well maybe they are full sized... they were small. All the sausages were really good. I wish I knew the names of them. It should come with a little piece of paper, like a flight of beer, so I can remember what I like best. Our server might have said the names, but I don't remember. On to the hock. We got the full order of the Roasted Pork hock. I am Asian, so I am used to really super crispy pork skin, like with crispy pata. I did not get that with my hock. The skin was really tough, but soggy. Does that make sense? I guess not. It wasn't crisp. Maybe it was the thick layer of melty fat under the skin that didn't allow the skin to crisp. There was a good portion of meat, enough to share... or not, but maybe skip the sausage sampler then. It came on a bed of really good sauerkraut and potatoes. I ate my friend's share of the sauerkraut. I love cabbage. To end the meal, my friend's pretzel finally came. We also ordered a slice of the bee sting cake and black forest cake. I don't know if these are made in house. It says homemade though. I love the bee sting cakes. It comes with a scoop of what I thought was ice cream, but was actually a really thick, sweetened whip cream. Mmmm... kind of like clotted cream. The black forest cake was good, but I would akin both cakes to supermarket cakes. Like the ones your parents would buy you from Safeway because they were convinced you loved them, but really secretly hated. I wasn't a fan of chocolate and fruit in my youth. I would love to come back to experience the other delicacies... like Snitzel... mmm. Or the meatloaf.

    Tuesday Schnitzel special!
    Jerome L.

    Here on a Tuesday for their Schnitzel special $11.99 which is a great deal. Salad and potato salad is included with 2 pieces of Schnitzel which is plenty of food for me. Too much for my mom who had to pack some home. Definitely worth trying!

    We went as a group of seven for a birthday celebration with family visiting from out of town. Service was prompt and friendly and our server Tanja was knowledgable and helpful, going as far to educate us on the best mustard for various sausages. Four of our group shared the platter for four which had a variety of German favorites including shnitzel, bratwurst, weiswurst, Bavarian meatloaf, pork hock and two cabbages. More that enough to share. The other three enjoyed different schnitzels which were accompanied by spetzle, cabbage and gravy. Generous portions. A variety of German beers came cold and our server was attentive never letting our glasses get empty. It was very busy so I recommend making reservations. Prost!

    Pork Goulash
    Sarah W.

    Wednesday is All You Can Eat Family Style Feast from 5 - 9 pm The restaurant is packed, so reservation is recommended. For $15.99, you get Hungarian Pork Goulash, Roast Pork, 3 different kinds of German Sausages, Roast Potato, Red Cabbage. We also ordered a la carte items Potato pancakes with Apple Sauce - typical German fare that you expect to be done well, which is not the case here.. The first time, the edges were. nice and crisp but the centre was raw and cold, the second plate we got as replacement was cooked but over seasoned. Schnitzel - breaded and served with spatzl and red cabbage with dark Mushroom Sauce. Nothing special that you can't do at home. German Hamhock - Skin was super crispy but chewy, the meat was a little dry. I have had better at non German restaurant. Service is slow not because the servers are not doing their job but just a lot more tables to cover. Kitchen is not sending out any All You Can Eat Feast very fast, we (party of 17) waited over 40 minutes before we see any platters. Second round took a wait of another 40 minutes, so if you want to eat, best to come at 5pm when they start. They also ran out of the Pork Roast for the second round. Parking on both sides of the restaurant, and the entrance is easy access, but if you walk in off the street, then you have to walk down a long flight of stairs. All in all, if you want good German fare, go for a drive to Leavenworth, Washington in the US.

    Despite this place being hidden away (seriously, not even at floor level, you have to head down some stairs to get to the restaurant and if there's no one else around you're definitely beginning to wonder whether this place exists), it's certainly a popular spot with those in the know. The place was completely busy and booked up, and we were lucky to have made a reservation because the couple that came in before us had to wait a half-hour for a table. I hadn't had schnitzel since I was in Austria, so I already knew what I wanted to get! Note: the menu online is not up to date. When we arrived, they had a different menu with slightly lower prices for a few things and they were missing some options. It threw us off a bit, but overall the majority of the schnitzels were available. The food portions were BIG. You should either come hungry, or consider splitting a dish. We wanted to try the meat platter but it's a good thing we didn't order it for our table, since we were all full on schnitzel. The spicy meal wasn't actually spicy at all, so that was a bit disappointing. The service was okay - our server disappeared shortly after dropping off our food and it took us forever to find her to get the bill. They had a live band playing as well, so it was totally entertaining. I wish I could give this place a higher score, but it's really a 2.5 at best for me.

    I have eaten all of my schnitzel with a side of warm sauerkraut. My nurse Broomhilde takes a well-deserved water break. Not too long please!

My spatzle was supposed to have a mushroom gravy on it but there was not much gravy and the spatzle was not well drained. For entrees my husband had zigeuner schnitzel and I had the sole with baby shrimp and Riesling sauce. The schnitzel is very thin as opposed to the thicker cuts that are served at most Bavarian restaurants that we have gone to. It was very tender but my husband was disappointed with his meal as he prefers the thicker piece of pork. The sauce was just all tomatoes and he said it was very bland and not very interesting. My sole was good but not exceptional. We were going to have dessert but by the time our server came to ask if we wanted dessert we had lost interest. It is a beautiful room, the prices are average but overall we found the food was not to our liking. The ladies washroom was out of toilet paper. Awkward.
