Positive 1st experience! +More to come in the future!! We were greeted by a VERY knowledgeable and kind waiter. We loved that she gave us the history of the restaurant knowing we only wanted to grab a quick drink and snack here. We tried the Wienerschnitzel Sliders (3) $14.95 and they are a MUST try. We enjoyed the flavors of everything in this appetizer. Overall a quick but great experience. We will be coming back to try dinner out next time. read more

We really wanted to like Jörg's Cafe Vienna, but unfortunately we left a little disappointed. Our server was extremely friendly and welcoming, although service was a bit spotty at times because they were dealing with a busy lunch rush. Totally understandable, and her friendliness definitely helped make up for it. The food ranged from average to good. We tried the Wurst sampler plate, which tasted fine but was surprisingly small for the price. The beer selection was a highlight, with a good variety of German and Austrian beers to choose from. Dessert was probably the best part of the meal. The apple strudel was delicious, as was the chocolate cake. The Black Forest cake, however, was disappointing and could have been much better. The atmosphere was also a little confusing. The decor seemed to jump between Austrian, Bavarian, general German, and even Fredericksburg, Texas references rather than really feeling like an Austrian cafe. We understand that this is an Austrian restaurant and we're German, so we weren't expecting everything to be exactly like the food we grew up with. Still, based on the overall quality, portions, and price, we just weren't impressed enough to come back. read more

Pretty solid food at Jorg's. Had been meaning to try them out for a while and glad I did. Has a tavern/pub vibe with lots of European and Austrian decor up. Waitresses are all dressed up in traditional clothing as well. Food was pretty solid. Pork schnitzel was good but could use more seasoning. Breading was falling off. The potato salad was actually my favorite thing and it had a great vinegary taste to balance the fried schnitzel. Spatzle had a good texture though also a little bland so you have to pair it with something else. The pretzel was solid as well though nothing too amazing. The cheese was flavorful and on the salty side but good. Def a great and unique option in downtown Plano. read more

The grilled pork chops were perfectly cooked. Their red cabbage and sauerkraut is cooked so well. I always enjoy sitting at the bar when traveling solo. Derek is a great host and the ambiance always feels like you've just want into a European pub. read more

It was our first time trying Austrian food. We ordered the pork schnitzel, Budapest bratwurst, and a pretzel bratwurst sandwich. Overall, the food was average. The pasta that came with the schnitzel and the mushroom sauce lacked flavor. The French fries with the sandwich didn't seem very fresh either. For drinks, we had an espresso martini and a Himbeergeist schnapps. The schnapps was strong and good, but the espresso martini was just okay and a bit light. The atmosphere was really nice , definitely the highlight of our visit. and the service was good as well. read more

This place was alright. Not bad by any measure, I didn't taste anything special either. The server was great. Very friendly and kept tabs on us the entire time. The ambiance seemed on point for this type of place. I'm not sure how old this place is, but it seems well lived in and kinda dated, but this is reflective of what I think is the old world charm. The food was okay. Grilled sausage was exactly that. The cabbage had caraway seeds so be mindful of that. The potato salad was pretty much left on the plate. It didn't seem worth the calories. I would rather of had plain over what that was. It wasn't bad, just not to my wife or my own liking. I would be back to try something else maybe. Nothing was bad here, but also nothing was special to draw a craving from me. We will have to be hungry and in the area not wanting other offerings nearby for us to give it another try. Maybe for a beer or something. They had an extensive imported selection. read more

I had the black forest schnitzel sandwich on pretzel bun. Nice and cheesy, slice of Swiss on both buns so 2 cheese was great. Cranberry sauce paired nicely but I wish there was some spice or acid (squeeze of lemon maybe). They also do not have any hot sauces here, I asked. Pretzel bun was nice and soft, not dense. The potato salad was nice but a bit watery. Service was great. They mentioned all the food is prepared fresh so I knew it would take a while to arrive. It was good though, I would come back and try something else. Ambiance is very Austrian. read more

So. So. Good. We had the breaded pork Schnitzel and added Oma's cream sauce. We traded the potato salad for Spatzle. We also ate a sampler of Wurst with Sauerkraut. Plus, the most tender perfectly cooked pretzel. Highly recommend. And the Kostritzer Schwarzbier was smooth and tasty. Thanks for a great lunch! read more

Best food in Plano...cooked to order. Waitress was amazing as always and we try to get her table everytime we go. We never went without a beverage. Food came out as soon as cooked and was steaming hot. It is a little crowded with about 30 tables, which lends to more personalized service. They've added an outdoor place to eat, but in our 105+ temps, I'm sure it wasn't busy. Recommend getting reservations especially for weekend nights. read more

The sausages are great. The food is delicious and authentic. They also have the best vegetarian sandwich in Plano. Spätzle, sausages, top of the line. Better priced than Bavarian Grill too. read more

Classic Austrian cuisine in family friendly setting just like the old country. All your favorites are offered with a good selection of European beers and wines. Jorge's has been a favorite for years and is still going strong. read more

Avoid this place. Great atmosphere, but the service is awful. If you go, eat beforehand you'll be waiting at least an hour for food. We had a 7:00 PM reservation and didn't get our food until after 8:00. They mixed up our table, asked us to move, switched our server, and by the time the food arrived it wasn't even worth the wait. Poorly managed and incredibly frustrating. read more

Clean place and quick, polite service. I had a schnitzel. Lecker! My wife had a sandwich. We both enjoyed the food. This was our second visit, and I am sure it will not be our last even though it is a 30-minute drive. Thumbs up. read more

Wowowow. Three words: this is Vienna! I don't often on a whim go to a restaurant without looking at the menu or yelp ;) first but I had a really good feeling I haven't seen a restaurant specifically for Austrian cuisine much less an authentic one!!!! When you first walk in you see so many beautiful banners and pictures on the walls- all mementos from the owners travels and lives. This a family owned establishment- the husband is from Austria and grew up there and the wife is from the states but have spent lots of time in Vienna as well. My husband and I had the pleasure of finding all this and more history about the place from the wife. She was sweet to check up on us to make sure we were having a good experience and answered all the questions we had. To make the experience even more amazing, their son, who was working here part time to help out on busy days, was super cool and friendly! Even though the place was PACKED he never made us feel neglected and was so friendly and welcoming. We ordered a chicken schnitzel meal and a sausage sampler platter. Tasty scale: 12/10!!!!! Made me have a flashback from when I visited Vienna on a school trip. So fresh and delightful! The real surprise were the fries like so perfectly salted and crispy. Also even though I'm not a huge beer drinker I did love their Hefeweizen beer - the common American beer just is not even comparable to that at all! So so good. My husband tried another beer which was nice as well. And as a "dessert" I had apple schnapps. That was so dangerously good I could've had so many of those I swear! I would love to make a reservation next time and sit at the bar to talk to the other owner. I have a best friend who studied German in school and is still able to hold a conversation in that language and I know her and her husband would love to check this place out with me. I cannot wait! The one thing which isn't bad in any means is that the restaurant is super popular and we got in just in time. So go early like right at 5 if you want a table and to be safe make reservations or you'll be waiting out the door! I wish the best for this establishment and can't say enough praise! read more

After years of living near this place I finally went. Nice ambience and friendly service. Started with the slider appetizer which was comprised of wurst and schnitzel. Served on fresh pretzel or regular buns. Delicious. Next was a cream schnitzel and the goulash. Total comfort food. read more

Jörg Fercher, (the owner and creator of the menu), his son Derek (the manager), and his wife Cathy (the business manager), are great people, and good friends for many years. I worked here for ten years. I come back to eat whenever I can. The building and atmosphere are perfect. The food is amazing; delicious & healthy). Jörg gets a lot of his meat from family butchers who travel many miles to deliver it. Everything is very clean and high quality. It was rated the cleanest restaurant in Plano, from 1000s, for well over a decade. ( don't know if the city still does that.) They have schnitzels, both cooked in amazing cream sauces like the Oma's, with Hungarian paprika. There are also lean wursts. The goulash (tender beef in a gravy with Hungarian paprika) is excellent! There are soft pretzels with Düsseldorf mustard, amazing salads and sandwiches, and desserts like the Tiramisu, which I consider to be the best anywhere. And if you drink, there are lots of excellent European beers on draft and more in bottles. My favorites are the Hefeweizens (sweet), the Warsteiner Dunkel (dark lager), and the Köstritzer Schwarzbier (a creamy dark, semi-stout). The management and staff are attentive, competent, and friendly. You owe it to yourself to try this place out. I can almost guarantee that you will return, probably multiple times! read more

Absolutely wonderful place to dine. Excellent food and service. Loved the decor and ambiance. Be sure to check it out!

To start, we ordered the Liptauer Teller - pretzels with cheese spread. YUM! Best pretzel we have ever had. My husband ordered a side salad and then Chicken Weinerschnitzel & Spatzle + side of Sauerkraut and Kaiser Franz Josef cream sauce. I ordered the Kaiser Franz Josef Schnitzel as it comes. We enjoyed everything. Very tasty. To finish off this delicious meal, I ordered the bread pudding with rum sauce. HOLY SMOKES! So Decadent. Must order if you are a dessert person. Wow! Highly recommend this restaurant. Go enjoy! :) read more

This is such a nice little place in downtown Plano. We went for date night, We wanted something different and this was a very pleasant experience. Their customer service is top notch. You MUST get the pretzels! Food was really good, I wish We had saved room for dessert because they have some really good options on their menu. Loved the ambiance, it's a must try. read more

Went for dinner. Nice atmosphere. Wonderful service from a helpful and attentive waitress. Unfortunately, food was bland and not especially German tasting. All the sausages on the combo appetizer tasted the same - non-descript. Probably won't go back. read more

Been wanting to try this place for a while, and it did not disappoint! Tried the wurst sampler.. so good! So many different flavored sausage samples, and it gives me an idea of what I might order next time. I've had many breaded schnitzels elsewhere before, but was intrigued by a sautéed version on the menu. Got the Jagerschnitzel.. so so good! Spaetzle noodles were great, perfect for taking in every drop of the sauce. Also enjoyed sides of potato salad and red cabbage. My favorite was the Apple Streudel! Loved it! Service was really great, very attentive. Fun place! Cool decor, good atmosphere. read more

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Stopped in on a rainy day to find a lovely, cozy German spot. We were sold on the warm atmosphere, but the food and service were perfect as well. Best German cuisine I've had in Texas. We live an hour away but will be sure to visit again. Reservations recommended, and the kitchen closes between lunch and early dinner service. I'd call this a hidden gem but judging by the crowd of regulars it appears that this is just a gem! read more

our first time there, I thought we were going to be ask to leave. We arrived promptly at 5:00 and had a reservation. The people meeting us was 13 minutes late but we ordered appetizers. . Major discussions continued about our table, another party was booked at 6:30 pm. We were prepared to leave at 6:30 - why ruin someone else's evening? i booked the reservation and the discussion still continued with the waitress, she told me that I booked the reservation wtih the owner a male and he told me about the 6:30 limit. you know, leave it alone and don't call me a liar. I booked the reservation with a female. Even after the other party arrived that joined us, the talk continued. I mean seriously. Talk about putting a damper on the evening. The food was average or below average. everything came with spatial and there is an up charge for substitutions. My husband has a brat plate, which was dry and over cooked. My dish was just ok and the serving size was small. the beer was good. read more

Arrived on Friday evening at 6:30pm. We had our pick of any table in the place. Perhaps because it was Labor Day weekend? That is typically a slow weekend for sit-down restaurants. We were seated immediately. We had two different cream-sauced pork schnitzels, no appetizers. The pork went down easily with the spaetzle. We were surprised that a vegetable cost extra. We thought that would have been on the main dish's plate. It was extra. I thought that was a no-no. The venue was subdued and a little quiet, but it just did not have the pizazz that it normally does. It was a $70 bill (tip in this total) with two dinners, medium beer and the red cabbage. Over-priced. We won't return. These are good people running the restaurant, but it feels commercialized, and they need to milk every penny from the customer. Henk's is a great alternative. read more

If you love German or Austrian (NOT Australian) you will love Jorg's! Food is excellent, as is service and as far as ambiance...you may choose between the restaurant vibe or the Biergarten vibe in the back. We love this place! read more

Food is incredibly underwhelming and massively overpriced. It's Bavarian in name only I guess? Oma's Paprika Schnitzel had no flavor, just a bland red cream sauce. The pretzel appetizer felt microwaved, but the tablespoon of cheese that comes with it was ok. I don't understand the hype around Jorg's read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. Outstanding food and service. The German restaurant has the best sauerkraut and you can get the sampler that has all the brats. read more

Great customer service and lively atmosphere, the inside of the restaurant is small but cozy! We went as a party of 2 right before dinner hours and didn't have to wait, however it definitely gets busy fast so try to get a reservation to avoid long wait times. Food is very good, the sauces really enhance the dishes and we left with a full belly. Would definitely come back again! read more

I haven't been there in at least a15 years it was a great place. Good food, good beer and good folks. The only reason I don't go there anymore is because I as a senior with a very limited income. Just can't afford it anymore. Not even the price of a beer. read more

Love Jorg's it a must got to if you want German. It's small but so very tasty make reservation or get there when they open!

Food is great and enjoy the restaurant Unfortunately need to report them for being non ADA friendly. Requested table that was easily accessible and close to front door for disabled person. Waitress said no and could only seat 5 at that table and we had party of 4. Meanwhile 6 top table had 3 people at table and even worse, they sat 3 at accessible table that we requested within 10 minutes of denying us. Shame on you waitress and unfortunate you created unlawful situation for owners. read more

I LOVED this spot. When we walked in, we instantly felt transported to Vienna. It was decorated in beer signs and other fun memorabilia. Our waiter warned us she was the only one working, but even with so many tables she was super quick and friendly. The food was delicious. We started with the liptauer teller - oh my gosh - so good! For my meal, I got the fried cheese and spatzle. My friend ordered the budapest bratwurst and said it was wonderful. My favorite part of the meal had to be the Sacher Torte! I really liked it because it wasn't quite as rich as other chocolate cakes. It had a wonderful fruity flavor, too. I look forward to returning! read more

A true culinary surprise. My wife and I absolutely love this place after trying it for the first time. Going back again this Friday night.

This was a very nice surprise. We thought we were stopping in for some bar food, but this turned out to be a really tasty meal served with top-notch service! This place is like stepping into another world with the decor and Austrian music. We will definitely be back! There are many more things on the menu I want to try. Both my wife and I really enjoyed this place, it was fun! The food is excellent and the price is right, PROST! read more

This is a very modest location. More of an old- world Inn than a traditional restaurant. This certainly enhances the ambiance.Reservations are STRONGLY recommended - and allow adequate time to find a parking space which may be challenging. Our group of four were promptly seated at our reservation time, as the place was packed. The service was very personable and good. The menu is certainly focused on popular dishes from Vienna. Our orders arrived promptly and were prepared perfectly. We will look forward to coming here again. read more

I loved the atmosphere here and the food was amazing. Definitely get the pretzels with the cheese dip (aka Liptauer Teller). If you're getting a breaded Schnitzel definitely pair it with one of the sauces. I suggest making a reservation ahead of time because it can get pretty crowded some nights. We were a group of 6 and didn't have to wait at all since we made a reservation. read more
