Amazing! Salad bar is the best! Service is always great. Go to place when we have company visiting.

My family lives in Kentucky, but we have a lake house in Winslow. Every time we come to the lake, we come to the Schnitzelbank. The service is always friendly, and everything is so fresh! The salad bar, pretzels, kraut balls. and potato pancakes are an absolute must. I love the smoked pork chop, wiener schnitzel, and saurbaten. The sides are phenomenal as well especially the mashed potatoes, saurkraut, German potatoes, and the potato salad. Plus, the beer is authentic and delicious! read more

I really just wanted to drink a boot of beer! As far as super kitschy German themed restaurants in middle of nowhere Indiana go... this place is great! Upon entering you are thrust in a gift shop with every stereotypical German item to an imagine. The waitresses wear themed Bavarian dresses to complete the look. Make no mistake they are going full blown, over the top theme here. The bar has a great glass ceiling and overall nice atmosphere, throwback to 1970's. Nice selection of German beers and you can get Das Boot! Of course i did and it was cold and fantastic. For the food, it is average but given the over the top theme, much better than I expected. Start with the pretzel. Watch out the horseradish mustard is not to be taken lightly. It will clear your sinuses in a heartbeat. For entrees hit the chicken pot pie or the wurst plate. I have had a number of things (all decent) but these ride to the top. Pot pie is huge (hotter than Hades) and done well. Soft flaky crust with thick and rich fillling. The wurst plate is exactly the opposite, it's the best plate of sausages i have had! If you love the midwestern iceberg lettuce salad bar theirs is pretty good. Nice selection of veggies and the blue cheese is a very nice homemade option. We have had a lot of fun here. Understand where you are and embrace it and you will too read more

Love the food. Great salad bar and bread. Great service. Unique and wonderful ambiance.

Food was unbelievably good, all homemade. Best apple butter I've ever had, and the Rueben and Potato Glaze are great. Pickled herring on salad bar was very good. read more

Go here. Just do it.....it's worth the little drive from the interstate. We went for lunch and the portions were so big that we had our leftovers for dinner. The food is authentic, filling, and delicious. They also have a brewing company so you have to do a tasting. We sampled six and liked them all. Atmosphere was relaxing and full of history for diners to read. This place was perfect for me and my buddy but it looked like it would also be great for a large group. Service was good and waitress was friendly and helpful with menu suggestions. We would eat here again. Unfortunately it's about eight hours from our home. read more

Schnitzelbank - American Near Me - Jasper, Indiana

It was fine, but nothing special. We were on a road trip, so we didn't get the schnitzel, thinking it would be nap inducing, but we had the salad bar and the sausage 'sandwich.' The brat and the knack wurst were good, but the fried potatoes were super greasy. And a sausage served with two half slices of pretty stale supermarket rye is not a sandwich. Most people seemed to be having fried chicken, the special of the day. The salad bar was fun. Lots of choices, replenished constantly. The wheel of blue cheese was a delight, but the pickled herring needed to be on the cold part of the salad bar, not sitting on the side, at room temperature. Like everywhere, they were pretty understaffed, and the servers were super busy, but also very friendly. Drinks were refilled promptly, without having to ask. If you're there anyway, stop, but it definitely wasn't worth the side trip. read more

Love this restaurant for their food and craft beer selections. The restaurant does draw a big crowd, so wait times to get in can take a while. Overall, highly recommend when visiting Jasper. read more

Good good, large portions, cute atmosphere. A nice change in an area surrounded by chain restaurants.

Great german bar and restaurant. Authentic food and decent german beer selection. I'll be back when in the area

Portion size are small and Way over priced! Gift shop is very expensive! Bathrooms are clean restaurants pretty clean that's about all the good I can say read more

Love this Bavarian style German restaurant. It is SO good, we are willing to travel 5 hrs to visit here on Easter Sunday. This is a restaurant that is a must to visit if you are anywhere near southern Indiana! read more

Every trip to the Schnitz is met with friendly and knowledgeable staff and delicious German cuisine!

We wanted to try this place out on a weekend evening with friends but they were slammed. Now we know why. We had lunch there today and it was awesome! Wife had Wiener schnitzel and I had the sausage trio sampler thing(can't remember the name). Service was great and the food was outstanding. Authentic German cuisine. We will return with kids and friends! Lots more to try on the menu. read more

Amazing food and large portions. If you like German Cuisine, you'll love this place!!

We had waited a few years to go to this restaurant. Alas, it was NOT GOOD. The goulash was just oily and did not look or taste like goulash. The weiner schnitzel was so tough that the steak knife that that gave to me would not even cut the veal. It was over a quarter of an inch thick and should have been pounded thin and was not done correctly. The green beans came out of a can with NO seasoning of any sort. All in all, we wasted a LOT of money on a terrible meal. We ended up taking our wine with us. The server brought a brown paper bag and did not staple a receipt to the bag. She said that if we got stopped by the police, not to worry, that they would recognize the brown paper bag as coming from this restaurant. WOW I do not know who raves about this food, but they must not enjoy good food. read more

What a fun place. We stopped in for afternoon dessert and this place didn't disappoint. Try the Apple Strudel.

Every time I come through Jasper I make it a point to visit the Schnitz. Great bratwurst (in fact, it was the winner of the Super 46 sandwich competition for the Super Bowl) and terrific salad bar. Don't miss my favorite, the pickled herring! The draft beer selection is great. Traditional Bavarian brews. Before leaving, make sure you check out the little store in the front. Lots of cute/kitschy German items/food. read more

Excellent service and food. Had the bratwurst dinner and had the spinach casserole for a side and it was amazing! Definitely my go-to whenever I'm in Jasper. read more

Today was our yearly visit to the Schnitzelbank for some of the best German food in Indiana and this place is a tradition. From southern Indiana its a one hour drive to Jasper but well worth the trip. To open with Kraut Balls are a MUST appetizer, this is ground beef, pork, sauerkraut & seasoning mixed with cream cheese then rolled in bread crumbs. The Half Livers & Half Gizzards are also spot on. For those that wish to eat on the healthier side then of course salads are offered. Schnitzelbank has so many great offerings, my wife loves the lunch buffet and sampled the 3-bean salad, cornbread salad, sauerkraut salad, German potato salad. The biggest winners were the Reuben soup which even captures the taste of wheat bread in a soup. Also, for the best & freshest summer salad in our state then this is the place to go. I went with today's lunch special which was two pieces of fall off the bone fried chicken with sweet corn and milk gravy mashed potatoes. To quote a friend of mine "good eats" Our waitress couldn't have been nicer and made certain we were taken care of. This is a casual restaurant and they also have a nice beer selection. And at the end of our lunch my wife said we should really comeback more often. read more

This spot had a lot of pricier options but chose the basic bratwurst sandwich and it was plenty! Loved the German fries that came with - should have asked for some ketchup. Would have loved a spicy mustard for the brat but when we requested we got honey mustard instead - recommend their horseradish sauce which came w a different dish :) also recommend the grune spinat casserole - comes with two pieces of bread. We had leftovers for bfast and almost tastes like a variation on a spinach artichoke dip (at least consistency-wise). read more

I think we had the misfortune of arriving late on a Friday night when there was a large party in attendance. We got walked through a server station and seated in a back room and soon were the only diners there, save for a half dozen employees who filtered in and out to take their dinner break. That being said, the food was good (we had a sausage and some smoked chops) and our waitress was super cheerful. They did not have Gaffel on draft as the menu said, but they did have a good beer and wine selection. read more

I was highly disappointed in the quality of the food. Was not close to the foods I enjoyed in Germany. Was very Americanized the goulash and sauerbraten was coated in a thick gravy. The green beans were canned beans if I had to bet, most of the food was heat and eat. I asked to let me know what had sugar and nothing was said. You can taste the sugar/corn syrup in the food read more

Was told by a few people to visit so we did on our way through Indiana. We were not disappointed. Service was prompt, food was tasty and atmosphere was entertaining. read more

It's good But expensive Apple Strudel's BockwurstBoneless Chicken TendersChicken Livers or Gizzards read more

Good beer and food in a sea of fast food. The Schnitz is one of the only places in Jasper to get good beer and food. Liters of Spaten Optimator, fried chicken livers, and prime rib (Saturday nights only) makes for a happy German. Also, a full salad bar complete with soup and pickled herring is included. The atmosphere is adorned with silly little German sayings, expensive cuckoo clocks, and a little souvenir shop. A good reason to make you feel like visiting Jasper is a good idea. read more

The food is amazing and the service is always terrific. Coming here always feels like coming home.

Tomato Basil Soup. Tomato Basil Soup. Tomato Basil Soup. This will keep me coming back. It had huge chunks of tomato and onions in it that was a nice surprise to your typical puree tomato soup. The only downside is that they switch up their soups daily so I can't eat this soup every day. The lunch soup/salad/bread/dessert bar is all you can eat! They replenish the buffet generously which is much appreciated. I love that they refrigerate their salad plates! read more

What a great place in the heart of the country. Service was excellent. Food was excellent. Salad and soup bar are the best and freshest. If you find your way to Jasper Indiana. This is a must read more

My wife, two friends, and myself stopped in Jasper for the night and Schnitzelbank was a short walk from the riverwalk trail so we all decided to go there for dinner. When you enter, you're given the option to go straight ahead to a small-ish bar area or to the left (through the gift shop of course, much like a Cracker Barrel but German themed) to a hostess stand to be seated in the main dining area. We got a table there and were seen to immediately by our waitress and we all ordered drinks. I had their strawberry blond ale which was delicious, one friend ordered a Paulaner Hef because they were out of their house Hef, another friend ordered a white wine that was too sweet for their tastes, and my wife had water but we all shared a 2L boot of dunkelweizen later. We split a large pretzel and cheese sauce which was pretty good while I had the side dish from my wife's chicken which was a potato dumpling which they call a "glaze" that had a unique gravy that I enjoyed as well as a couple of potato pancakes that was served with an apple butter instead of the more traditional applesauce and/or sour cream. The potato dumpling/glaze wasn't really traditional in the texture and flavor categories like I've had in Germany, more like seasoned mashed potatoes which were thickened and baked but it is a minor nitpick and they had the bread cube in the middle of it. The potato pancakes were good but quite thick like cuts of chicken breasts, that were deep fried instead of pan fried. Unfortunately because of the cooking method, a lot of the potato and seasoning flavor was lost to the oil and I was reliant on the apple butter to get me through each bite. Not disappointing but it could have been better. I felt that the beer prices were well priced and the choices varied, so I would recommend the Schnitzelbank as a good place to come for an app, beer, and dessert if you can fit it in your belly. The apple streudel looked good but we were stuffed by the end of dinner. read more

Great spot in a small town! The food and beer T Schnitzelbank is great. Not often am I seeking out German food. However, if your in Jasper for whatever reason and you hungry. Then go get some German food at Schnitzelbank. The only negative is that the food is a little costly for its type. read more

This place was so good! You can definitely split an entree. The food is great! We got a pretzel for an appetizer which 4+ could've easily split. It came with beer cheese which was excellent. My fiancé and I split a platter which came with three different meats and 2 sides. I got the salad bar. I was very impressed with that. They had a girl completely working at the salad bar. She was restocking everything. She was also cleaning and keeping it organized. There were lots of options on the salad bar. This was my first time here. I'll definitely be back!! read more

Salad bar is super good, restaurant is very nice design, and servers and servants are very nice. 5/5 Keep Doing Business

This was my first time having German food and it was very delicious. The people were very friendly and it had a lot of space. The food selection was huge. Everything is homemade nothing is frozen. They have a great selection of beer and wine. I will definitely be coming back! read more

A trip down memory lane for my Grandmother's sauerbraten. Excellent, only wish it was dinner instead of lunch so I could have one of those delicious German beers. read more

The atmosphere is of an authentic German Inn when you walk in including a folksy gift shop. The staff is inviting and our first waitress there was kind enough to bring samples to the table. I was more than just a little impressed by that. Their large pretzel and sauces with it are scrumptious. The beer selection is wide and tasty. The meals we had were so delicious. I look forward to going back and trying the entire comfort food menu! I would take anyone to impress them there. read more

Outstanding chicken livers! Had the wurst platter and my wife had the turkey pot pie. We had chicken livers as an appetizer and there were so many it could have been a meal itself. They were busy the day we were there but we walked right in and sat down. Immediately, the waitress came over to get us greeted and give us our menus. Great service. Loved the German chocolate pie. Hardly had any room for that but we decided to split the pie. I am glad we tried it because it's one of the best cream pies I've had. Very chocolatey. The turkey pot pie was so so. Also, one of the sides my wife had were potato pancakes. The potato pancakes were just not good. More floury than potatoey. Hard potato pancakes that did not taste like potato. No complaints on anything else. Very good German fries, too. I will visit there anytime I'm near! read more

The turkey pot pie left a lot to be desired. The salad bar was just lack luster.

Literally waited 45 minutes for A STARTER waitress checked on us multiple times stating she would go to grab it, people that sat down behind us got food before we got ours. We brought it to her attention and all that was noted was "sorry" read more

Stopped in for lunch here and it was absolutely abysmal. From the greasy over fried "potato" pancakes that had almost no filling, to the drab, tough, flavorless Wiener Schnitzel - the price here is higher than the standards in the kitchen. If your expectations are anywhere above "sub par" you WILL be disappointed. The prices they charge for what they deliver is unacceptable and begging for one of the many Restaurant Rescue shows on TV. While it may be a local staple, those that haven't been indoctrinated into accepting to eat this so called German food should steer clear. The only authenticity to be found here is in the gift shop. read more
