    Run, don't walk! This German restaurant serves up authentic and hearty meals, and has German beer on tap. I absolutely love German food and my meal here did not disappoint. The quality of everything we had was absolutely excellent, and we left full with leftovers. I had the beef rouladen which was the most tender beef in rouladen that I've ever had! The flavor and textures were incredible. I also really enjoyed the spaetzle and the red cabbage. The service was also fantastic, as our waitress checked on us frequently and was friendly. I wish I lived in the area because I'd be here all the time. However I promise to visit again the next time I'm in town.

    Some of the best German food I've had, including in Germany. Delicious and authentic. The menu has a nice intro on the chef/owner's background. Had the pork Cordon Bleu with spatzle and bacon wrapped green beans. It was great. They have a few styles of Weihenstephan beer on tap as well as wines and I think a cocktail menu too, but I was focused on beer. Traditional beer hall music plays in the background but isn't loud or interfering with conversation.

    I made reservations for a Saturday night and they had plenty of availability. When we got there, we were greeted right away by the host, who asked if we had been there before. Though the space was formerly an Outback Steakhouse, they definitely put their own touch on the interior as it had tons of artwork and decor that made it clear you were in a German restaurant. It was really nicely decorated! To start, my boyfriend and I ordered a Hefeweissbier and Vitus. All of their beer offerings are from Weihenstephan, a German brewery. You can also get a flight of four different options. The beer was great and was served in huge German beer glasses. For an appetizer, we got the pretzel sticks with beer cheese. They were good but you can definitely skip them since they serve complementary pretzel sticks with honey butter, which are delicious. For our entrees, I ordered the Frankische Bratwurste - homemade brats with home fries and sauerkraut. I also got a side of Spatzle - the German form of mac and cheese. It was all delicious! My boyfriend got the Erlanger Sauerbraten - beef that's slow roasted and marinated in a red wine and vinegar sauce, served with red cabbage and a potato dumpling. He absolutely loved it! It was really tasty and cooked perfectly. Overall, it was a delicious experience and I hope to go back soon. Next time I'll save room for dessert!

    We sat at the bar so we could watch the game on a Saturday evening. Food, service and ambiance were all excellent.. We both left with happy bellies and prices were reasonable. Great news place, established in 2024, we will definitely be back.

    Lovely dinner. My husband had the mixed sausage plate and I ordered what turned out to be the largest pork Wiener schnitzel I've ever seen. So yummy. I ordered the mushroom sauce on top as an extra and it was worth it.

    Stopped in with friends on a whim during their visit to the area knowing that they love German-inspired cuisine. While German food is not usually high up on my preference list, I found the menu to be eclectic enough to suit all palettes. I had the herring appetizer (which was huge) and a delicious salad as my main course. The herring is definitely an acquired taste-and I loved it. The sweet sour cream sauce with onions smothering the hearty herring filets brought me back to being a kid; I loved it. Ate. It. All. The complimentary pretzel sticks were served with hot honey butter-yum! We were told that more would be brought-but sadly that didn't happen. (Which, in retrospect was totally fine since we had PLENTY of food). Baked Brie appetizer was a winner. The meat dishes had mixed reviews-it was good quality but reported back as not as flavorful as they would have liked. Dessert was nice...strudel! The service was a little spotty at times but our server was super friendly. It's a pretty large space and was starting to get busy when we left. Spargel is still fairly new and likely working some kinks out. I'll definitely check it out again in the future.

    In all honesty I was fearful of this place, I'm not the biggest fan of Western European food due to its heaviness but spargel made me rethink my opinion. The pretzels with honey butter come with every meal and were delicious. Not the best pretzels, but they complemented the butter well. We also orders pretzels with beer cheese, which I would have passed on if had known the pretzels with honey butter come with the table. I had the tenderloin with mushroom sauce which was delicious and so comforting. The side salad was a hodgepodge of items but I picked out what I enjoyed. They also had this mushroom soup special when we went that you must get if they have it again. It was one of the greatest things I've ever tasted. The portions are also huge and we all took home leftovers. The service was great too! It took a bit to first get a server to our table but after then we were treated with such kindness we felt like family by the end.

    Delicious old world (European) food in the vaunted German tradition. Excellent service, with staff and chefs, who care about customers and who like to have fun and interact. I ate at the bar upon arrival, but there are tables at windows (many) and large tables for groups of 5-6 people. The ambience is quiet and calm - no frantic service, no mad dashes, no 'dining chaos'. The food is solid. Pretzels, meats, veggies and fries are the best. The bar employees were a fun and polite bunch! When they were behind the bar, they were shaking up drinks, then wiping down the bar area. The chef came out into the dining room, ambled around quick and said a nice 'hello' to guests: what a nice gesture! But you will have to eat at Spargel 9 to get such hospitality.. One last point: this place is spotless. I am talking immaculately clean. The bar chairs, glasses, cutlery, men's room and linens were simply pristine. To the persons working in the back area: kudos! A marvelous evening out for a brief respite from exhausting all my calories.. this was the most wonderful Glens Falls, German dining. The Rebel Chef highly recommends this very precise, immaculate, friendly and delicious German lunch and dinner restaurant. Fun all around dinner spot! Review: 5+

    My sister brought our family here during Xmas vacation in Ballston spa. It was definitely worth the drive and lived up to the reputation and raves from my sis and bro-in-law. It was very busy on Friday night after Christmas. We waited a few minutes for our table, not long, but got seated way in the back near the bathrooms, which is fine for our party of six including my elderly mom. Just wish it could've been closer to the door. It used to be an outback steakhouse, but was clearly renovated and it's fine inside and a little bit loud, but it's large and the tables are far apart enough and it's a nice open layout. The food was amazing. The pretzel bread with hot honey butter was surprisingly included and delicious. Everybody's meals were amazing including my mom's chicken Cordon Bleu, which she doesn't order often, but she just was moved to try that and was happy with it and chose french fries of all things as her side and they were very, very good and cooked perfectly, served hot. And definitely look like they were homemade due to the cut. I tried someone Spaetzle and it was deliciously good the right texture and they certainly get a length out of it that I haven't achieved no matter how many times I've tried to cook it myself. I had the Schweinebraten which was recommended by my brother-in-law who had gotten it two times before and he wasn't wrong. It was delicious. I was first turned off by the description of the cut of meat being the "pork collar" but I went with it and was pleasantly surprised with the tenderness and the marbling that that kind of meat has really gives it a delicious texture after what I can only imagine is a deep and long braising, and the potato dumpling was almost like the inside of a croquette, smooth textured but like velvet, soaking up the deliciously, savory and comforting brown sauce. The house salad was spectacular with a tone of pickled bits that added brightness and was different- each bite a mix of sweet sour and savory. I want that salad again! Enough for 2 meals maybe 3 if the third was a snack or lunch, I loved it here. The only issue was service was slow. They were busy but we had to wait a while for even water, not to mention drinks and ordering. The food took over 30 minutes to come out which was like I said worth it, but felt like forever. They are popular! Order an app next time to feed the hungry ones because it is worth the wait!

    Salmon and rice side of bacon wrapped green beans.

    I loved the Hungarian goulash!!! Bartender was on point, he was easy to talk to. I got the lemon pepper salmon with rice. I added a side of bacon wrapped green beans because who wouldn't. The main course was just as good as the goulash. It's well lit and quiet in the bar area.

    Platter for 2 (GF)

    Most amazing gluten free German food I've ever had! My husband (not celiac) loved everything as well. We highly recommend splitting the platter for 2! They were able to make everything gluten free, so we were able to try a little bit of everything including GF spätzle, potato pancakes, sauerbraten, and so much more. The gluten free spätzle was amazing!

The open kitchen makes the whole experience so fun, and you will feel the passion from everyone working there... We started with the lumpia, which was simple and delicious, with a dipping sauce that had the perfect spicy kick. For entrees, hubby had his favorite, short ribs with frenched onion and I had my fav, Pad Thai -- both were bursting with flavor and beautifully balanced. Dessert was Asian crème brûlée, which was creamy, light, and a perfect finish. Our cocktails hand made by Phil were delicious, the food was outstanding, and the atmosphere they have created is warm, upbeat, and genuine. Every dish felt thoughtfully made, and the staff there truly seems happy to be doing what they do and told us so. They love working with Shannon and Phil.

These folks know what they're doing. Korean wings were spicy as advertised, but hit the mark on crunch, savoriness and just the right level of sweetness. I could have made a meal out of these, but I was nice and shared 'em. We also had a Mediterranean dip sampler that was outstanding. I then had a fabulous salad with Thai-inspired mango shrimp. Others at the table had steak, homemade pappardelle pasta and a version of a wedge salad. Rave reviews all around. Dessert? We almost declined. Instead, we all shared a piece of the gigantic, insanely good slice of baklava cheesecake. Our server was the bomb. Wish I could remember her name. I look forward to going back as the menu changes with the seasons.
