    Bavarian Sausage plate and the Hungarian Schnitzel

    Some of the best German food we've ever had. The potato salad was excellent from flavor to texture. The sauerkrauts were both delicious (we especially enjoyed the deliciously spiced red one). Every one of the sausages were delicious and the schnitzel was incredible (the curry sausage was amazing due to the strong holiday season like spices they used). The Black Forest cake was also perfectly fluffy and not too sweet.

    I can't say enough good things about this place. The staff is super friendly and nice, the food is always great, And the fortunes are huge. Go out and get this small family restaurant a try. They are open in the evenings at 4:30 Tuesday thru Saturday.

    Delicious home cooked meal and very hospitable service. We will absolutely be back and will recommend this gem to our friends!

    Ask the Community - Schnitzel

    Does anyone know if the Schnitzel was affected by TS Imelda? I live in Port Arthur and invited a friend from Louisiana to meet there for dinner on Saturday. I just tried calling to make sure they are open but no answer..

    They were not, she is doing business as usual and even open for lunch some days. I do not however know about this weekend. I remember her saying they had an important family event.

    Is this restaurant still open for business?

    Yes it is

    Weiner Wednesday! Weiner Wednesday!!!…read more I just had to say that; it's too much fun! On Wednesdays, you can enjoy 50% off all schnitzel orders, and let me tell you, the schnitzel is excellent--both the pork and chicken options are fantastic. The beer is cold, and there's a vast selection to choose from. Now, let's address a controversial topic: some of you don't eat sauerkraut--heathens, I say! King's has the best sauerkraut in Harris and Galveston counties, bar none. Yes, it's a bit out of the way, but the atmosphere is lively, and the food portions are relatively large. It can get a little rowdy, though it's a fun kind of rowdiness. If you're more of a wet blanket, this might not be the place for you. If you enjoy camaraderie and good food, this is the spot for you! Weiner Wednesday (lol)!

    This evening I was in the mood. In the mood for a Reuben sandwich. If you don't know what that is,…read moreI'm not sure we can really be friends. But since I'm a likeable sort of guy, I'll explain. A Reuben is simple: corned beef, sauerkraut, toasted bread (usually marbled rye), a bit of Russian or Thousand Island dressing, and Swiss cheese. Toast it up nice and warm--basically like a grilled cheese that went to college and got a respectable job. Over the years I've had stellar versions. I've had mediocre ones. I've had them burnt, soggy, and even a few where I had to remove half the meat because the sandwich had been stacked like a small geological formation. A proper Reuben is about the stack. The corned beef should be impressive--something you look at and think, "Yes... this sandwich understands the assignment." So tonight I thought: a German place should have good kraut. Surely they'd have a good Reuben. I ordered online and requested that they toast the bread, meat, and cheese but put the kraut and sauce on the side. Anyone who's ordered a hot sandwich for delivery knows that kraut inside a sealed container quickly turns bread into something resembling damp cardboard. The good news: they followed the request. The sauce and kraut were indeed on the side. And that's about where "what they got right" ended. The sandwich was, to put it kindly, wimpy. It came on a few very small slices of what appeared to be marbled rye... or perhaps bread that aspired to resemble marbled rye. The flavor certainly didn't suggest rye. As for being toasted, perhaps they briefly waved it near a heat source just long enough to dry the bread out slightly, as though it had been left on the counter for a few hours. I assembled it myself and gave it a fair shot. The corned beef did, in fact, pass as corned beef. The kraut was acceptable. But even a DIY reconstruction couldn't save the long list of small things that could have made this a proper Reuben instead of what felt like an appetizer-sized sandwich. Now, I do have to mention the large pretzel with mustard and beer cheese from the appetizer menu. The pretzel had a decent bite to it, but it wasn't quite warm. In fact, it had the distinct personality of something that may have spent just slightly less time in the microwave than it should have. Not cold exactly, but not the warm, chewy, certainly not the freshly baked experience one hopes for from a German biergarten. The beer cheese actually stood on its own--though you do have to pay extra for the tiny cup. The pretzel itself, however... I hate to say it, but sprinkle a little sugar on it and you've basically got a funnel cake. I'd say "you're not fooling anyone," but apparently you are. My suspicion--though I could be wrong--is that the establishment caters more to people who want to drink beer while examining the structural engineering of push-up corsets and lederhosen. This $15 sandwich belongs in a gas station cooler in a plastic clamshell for $5.99, not at a place identifying itself as a German biergarten. I'll give one star for the delivery driver and one star for correctly following the deconstruction request. But that's about all I can do. I've seen some good reviews for King's BierHaus at this location, so I would hate to think--though I can't entirely dismiss the possibility--that delivery orders might receive a little less care than dine-in meals.

You just don't see that often and I wanted to try it. The stars aligned and my family and I met up here for a weeknight dinner. Alvin is the true definition of a small town. It is just south of Pearland and life moves a little slower out here. Atleast for time being as it is becoming more developed now. The building itself is old and full of character. Everyone seemed to know each other. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, but service was a tad bit slow at times. My family isn't a big drinking family so we stuck with water and sodas, but they have quite a nice bar program here. They have a really impressive beer selection, a long list of specialty cocktails and lots of wine to choose from. I'm definitely coming back to check that out without the fam. For appetizers, we got an order of the scotch eggs and the Bavarian pretzel sticks. This was my first introduction to scotch eggs and a wonderful one at that. You really can't go wrong with anything wrapped in sausage and deep friend. It was a nice treat and something I will not be sharing next time. The pretzels were also very good. Our waitress suggested some cheese sauce to accompany those. These sticks of goodness were excellent. For my entree, I was stuck on a few items as their menu is pretty extensive. Our waitress said my option for the Pork Milanesa was the way to go, so I did. I've had milanesa at Mexican restaurants, but never in a tavern nor prepared this way. This was hand battered in panko and then topped with a mushroom gravy. It comes with broccoli and mashed potatoes but I substituted the veggie for mac and cheese. This dish was very good and the portions were very generous. Enough for me to have a full second meal minus the sides. The pork was thinly pounded and kept it's crunch even doused in gravy. The gravy was rich and very delicious. My family got a mix of items like the philly cheese steak, flat iron steak salad, tavern salad, and chicken fried steak. For research purposes and for my loyal readers, I tried everything. There wasn't anything that was bad to me. We were full so desserts didn't happen on this trip. Overall, Gordon Street Tavern is a solid spot that I would happily return to if in the area.
