The staff here is lovely, lady who helped us was actually from Germany! A little on the pricey side but everything we tried was delicious. Just be careful if you go for dinner, as they close pretty early. read more

The German Cafe - German Near Me - Sierra Vista, Arizona

This was so good when we ate there 2 days ago for the first time, we came back. This food is not only authentic but the best German food I have ever had. The staff are incredible. read more

Excellent food and service. I enjoyed my lunch there, spoke with the owner, she was so nice

The main reason I have giving this restaurant even two stars is that the service was good. The food, however, was not. They call themselves the House of Schnitzel, and yet they have no clue how to make a good one. It was thin, flavorless, and tough. The potato pancakes were flavorless and greasy. Their goulash soup looked like dishwater with some vegetables and tough meat thrown in. And, they are extremely expensive. If you're looking for good German food, you won't find it here. Very sad since we stopped off in Sierra Vista just to eat here. The fact that is was totally empty at lunchtime in a weekend was a glaring red flag we should have paid attention to. read more

Adorable little German restaurant in Sierra Vista with a cozy ambience and delicious food. I had the schnitzel bowl with fresh made spaetzel and schnitzel and the onion gravy. Their kids bratwurst and spaetzel were also great portions! Service was quick and attentive. Will definitely go back the next time I'm in Sierra Vista read more

The food was over the top excellent! Recommend by David at Ed Morse while we were buying a car. The place had every table full and they were locals. That's how you know you found it. Server was very good she was slammed and handled it well. The place has a home feel and the decor was like eating at mom's kitchen. If you're able stop in and you will not be disappointed. read more

Food is ok but expensive and service very slow would not recommend unless you have time to kill

The bad: the food was mediocre compared to food in Germany. Portions were small given the price. No alcohol for a German restaurant. Food didn't come out together for a party of 7. $1 charge to substitute a side that cost the same on the menu. Ambiance is not good. The good: service was ok, private room was available. Overall, wouldn't go back. read more

The German Cafe - Spatzel Bowl - German Near Me - Sierra Vista, Arizona

The food is a little expensive and they don't have a lot of desserts to carry out I would like to go back and try more of their foods we used to be stationed in Germany. We got to try a lot of German foods. I fell in love with German bratwurst learn my neighbors taught me how to cook it. read more

This place is one of my favorites in Sierra Vista and is superior to angry german cafe. The waitress with the red hair and the german accent will leave you with a smile as she is always super helpful and makes the best looking german chocalate cake I have ever seen. So their snitzel is fabulous! I always get thr swizz version with the ham and eggs. Best dish there. They have horse radish, mustard and kraut and do not skip on these essentials as the enzymes break down the meat and gravy in the stomach. Germans know body design like cars. Never had a bm but I can dream. read more

Service and food was quite good. Had a Reuben with horseradish rather than thousand Island dressing. Schnitzel bowl with spatzle was quite good. Don't think they had a liquor license, even though they had beer stains on every table. Seems to be a lot of people pick up taking the food home. read more

If you're coming through Sierra Vista, you gotta check out the German Cafe for a unique experience. No frills and nothing fancy here, but the food was fantastic!! The restaurant had German decor, pictures, etc which was a nice touch. The food was outstanding-I've never been to Germany to have authentic German food, but this was a great first experience. I would recommend the Schnitzel Sandwich! The coleslaw was a great addition as well. The service was also great-there was only one serving catering to 4-5 tables while we were there and was quick and attentive. We made a reservation just in case on a Saturday evening-probably unnecessary but it did get busy! read more

We went here with family for my sons birthday. The waitresses were absolutely amazing and we loved their German dresses. The food was delicious and from what my in-laws said, also authentic. It felt like we were invited to dine in a true German family home, as they served us on mixed glass-wear and they allowed us to use the "back room," or "party room" due to the number of us. It felt very comfortable and cute. Food arrived in a fair time (neither short or long time). Fresh tasting and hot. I got the tea and it came with a cookie and was in a cute little teacup with a saucer. I ordered the chicken schnitzel and want to go back again as soon as we can make it back over there! Highly recommend if you are looking for a good German restaurant to frequent. read more

Wonderfully delicious and authentic German food. I chose the Jägerschnitzel. The pork slice was perfectly crispy and wonderfully tender, covered in delicious brown gravy. It is nice to be able to choose which sides to have; but difficult due to numerous great choices. I settled for the traditional German cucumber salad, and the shredded beets. Both were great. Because I just couldn't to go without the traditional warm German potato salad; I ordered it as an additional side. It did not let me down! As others have commented, the portions are generous, so the extra side of potato salad was perfect and provided me a full meal of leftovers. I must say they were equally delicious the next day. Great service, attentive without being intrusive or annoying. Nice, clean restaurant and employees. Good German restaurants are not easy to find and I will certainly be back to this one on my upcoming visits to Sierra Vista. read more

This place is small but has a family vibe to it. The service was very friendly, but not overly fast. I'm assuming it's that way because they make it all from scratch. I ordered the chicken schnitzel, which was amazing. My sides were potato salad with cucumber salad. I will be back to try more of their amazing menu. read more

Fabulous cabbage, pork cutlet, sausages and dessert!! Great wait staff and ambiance too.

The food is delicious and the portions are huge, in fact they are so huge that you can get two meals from one dinner entree. My only complaint is that with portions that large, you need a large to-go box and all they had were little flimsy plastic containers that only contain only half of my leftovers. When I asked for a second container, a 50 cent charge was added to my bill. If that's not a cheap trick, I don't know what is! Next time I'm bringing my own to-go box. The servers are excellent, food came out in a timely fashion, and like I said, it's a huge portion. I had the Zeiben schnitzel with two bread dumplings and red cabbage. Everyone I was with enjoyed their food as well. read more

I only observed seating on the interior side of the restaurant. Discovery: I was advised of this restaurant via my classmates.

Great Food and Great Service aside, I was disappointed that there were no other customers while we were there. We showed up a little after 2pm for a late lunch and we were the only customers there the whole time. Well, except one door dash driver. Come on, people, Patronize a fine local business. You too, Snowbirds! read more

Have a meal here. Now. I wonder if they'd consider opening a restaurant in Tucson?! We wish they would... Had lunch here yesterday for 4. The waitress was SO nice and helpful with such a warm smile! They have an extensive menu of authentic German dishes we had a hard time choosing, we wanted everything! The dishes we chose are all pictured below. The food here is stellar. The schnitzel was perfectly breaded and fried, and the pork cutlet was free of any gristle. The sauces were flavorful with generous portions. The sides were all great too! For desert we shared a piece of the German Chocolate cake (pictured). We have never seen cake served with whipped cream on the *bottom*. Wow! The place is spotless and very quaintly decorated. This will be a destination for us every time we go through Sierra Vista on our way to Ramsey Canyon or the Coronado Monument. Loved it! read more

What to say? Very long drive for mediocre food. Service nice when she was there but totally occupied with a big table. Only came when I called to her to take away very odd tasting iced tea? and when she brought the check. Caution! No beer at a German eatery! Cost: almost $60.00 for two entries, each with two sides. read more

9/23/21: Guten appetit! Took my son here for dinner because he's stationed here for a bit and wanted something different. This establishment was a winning decision. Reminded me of time spent working and playing in Germany. Nice sized crowd eating during our visit. Staff members are very polite and made me feel like I was in Kaiserslautern. Ordered Weinerschnitzels, Jagerschnitzel, potato salad, sauerkraut, garlic mashed potatoes. Yummy! The food was absolutely delightful and nicely portioned. Flavors hit the palette just right. Loved this restaurant and will visit again. Highly recommend The German Cafe and will go back upon the next visit to this town. read more

The good: Parking is available and allows for easy access to the restaurant. Bathrooms are on site (1 male, 1 female; unsure if there is a changing table). Booster seats and high chairs available (all clean and in good working order-- parents know how rare this is). Staff was incredibly pleasant and knowledgeable. Very open layout that allows for easy seating for groups of 4 or more. We went as a group of 7 (4 of the 7 kids ranged from 2-11 years of age). We were able to be seated immediately. The kids were provided with reusable plastic cups with lids. Straws were reusable as well. I really liked the cups and straws as they were super sturdy. I had the Reuben with thousand island. I love Reubens. And this was probably the best Reuben I have ever had. The sauerkraut and corned beef were fresh. The bread was toasted and flavorful. I was very happy with my meal. I tasted the cabbage-- it was new to me but enjoyable. I stole a little bit of the two year old's bratwurst and it was divine. Serving sizes were aligned with the reasonable pricing. We all left full and satisfied. The bad: That same open layout means that it's very loud. It was easier to hear the folks behind us than it was to hear people at our table. To consider: We arrived at 1230 on a Saturday and seemed to beat the rush. People that came in 15-20 min after us were told that food would take 45 minutes. Overall, I strongly recommend this restaurant. I can wait to come back and try other things on the menu. read more

Excellent European Food We were in Sierra Vista one day to visit the military fort and wanted something unique for lunch so we stopped by The German Cafe. It's on the end of a strip and is very cozy inside. We were there just after noon and there were maybe 4 other tables with diners so service was excellent. We both had iced teas that were refreshing on that hot day. My wife ordered the Schnitzel Lunch Sandwich with came with fries and cole slaw. I ordered a bowl of the Hungarian Goulash Soup that came with a slice of garlicky grilled bread. The pork on the Schnitzel Sandwich was perfectly cooked - moist and fried just right. The cole slaw is oil vinegar dressed with bacon and onion. We loved it. My Goulash was perfect with nice amounts of pork, potato and other vegetables. An excellent flavor with plenty of paprika, which may have contributed to just a little spice kick. The grilled garlic bread was a nice addition. The other diners clearly had been there before as they all saved room for cake which we found out is one of their most popular items, but we had to pass on it this time. For a change from southwest menus, try The German Cafe to escape to Europe for awhile. read more

We visited on a weeknight, after the main supper rush, so fortunately, there wasn't much competition for table service. The downside of the service was that the four of us had to ask for seemingly "everything" no matter how very obvious, right down to getting empty water glasses refilled. The food wasn't particularly noteworthy either way, for the most part. But, after nearly five years stationed in Deutschland, I can say sincerely that their späetzle wouldn't be on my a-list based on this visit. The side of rotenkraut, red cabbage, surprisingly small, and the pommes frites didn't have that authentic German "fresh-cut" potato flavor and mouth feel to them. All in, 20-20 hindsight, my mistake was in setting a high bar in hopes of getting a meal like so many I loved back in Bavaria. Sorry, friends, next time, I'll pass. read more

We stopped here for dinner our second night in town. Overall it was very good, coming from someone who was raised on German food. My take on it - Potato pancakes- very good. Nice and crispy. Bratwurst- cooked perfectly, nicely seasoned. The potatoes were great, the sauerkraut excellent. The zweibel schnitzel was really good. The cucumber salad great. The Hawaiian schnitzel was very good, potato salad off the hook and coleslaw outstanding The Gypsy schnitzel was great, good flavor. The spetzel was perfect. The only downside was the red cabbage. This missed the mark from what we are used to. read more

We went in an hour before close. Waitress was slightly snippy. My spätzle tasted like it came from another customer's plate. It was cold and dry and not tasty at all. The rest of the food was OK but not fantastic. I would skip this German place for something else in the area. read more

Hello, fellow Yelpers!! I am out sampling more cuisine in the Sierra Vista, AZ area. Decided I would tackle this German restaurant tonight. Very small and quaint, this cafe is a Mom & Pop type establishment. Yes, there are mismatched tables and chairs, but that has never deterred me before. I had zero wait and was sat immediately. Waitress was very sweet and gave great service the entire time I was there. And this place was spic and span clean! I wanted to love this place more, but I found a few problems I cannot excuse. For the good points: the chilled cucumber salad is very good. So is their iced tea. I am in agreement that they do make a very good schnitzel and the Swiss style is a fun play with ham, Swiss cheese, and two over easy eggs on top. They use reusable silverware and straws - very environmentally conscious! Now the bad. If you use a microwave in a restaurant that is supposed to serve fresh authentic food to order, I agree with Gordon Ramsay - shame on you! How does this impact the food?? Well in the case of the potato pancakes, they were doughy in the center from the reheating - they were overdone to begin with on the edges. Microwave makes those overdone edges so hard and crisp you almost can break a tooth on it!! Microwave reheating the schnitzel also adversely impacted it by making it drier than it should have been. Big disappointment for me. The saving Hail Mary throw came in the form of the German chocolate cake. That cake was moist, delicious, and not overly sweet!! Definitely the star of the show and the reason I didn't tank another star off the score (besides the fact that the place is super clean and I had a very attentive waitress). Please note that I didn't try the spaetzle to determine if it would have the same issues as the potato pancakes. But if I could change ONE thing above all else, I would get rid of the microwave and stick to true fresh made-to-order cooking. Til that happens, I would pass this place up for other than dessert. read more

Our group of four ate here yesterday and had a delightful experience. We were seated immediately at a large table with my large German Shepherd service dog - happily. The service was prompt and "over-the-top" friendly and welcoming. The wait for our dinners was comfortable and the food was fabulous. I was particularly highly impressed with the quality, selection and authenticity of the fare. All in all a top flight dining experience. We'll definitely make this a regular stop read more

Adjust your hours bro. This is restaurant 101. How do you expect people ti give you money when you say your open and you're closed. 12/27 a Friday.. There was even staff still there.... Did someone die? Your chef drunk? Did the server cut their finger. Fucking unacceptable. You failed read more

If you love authentic German food, this will be your new favorite obsession! During our visit to Sierra Vista we went back a second time. First visit: I ordered the Zwiebelschnitzel and my husband the Currywurst. We shared the meals. IMO the schnitzel was the hands down winner. Delicious!! Second visit: we ordered the Zigeunerschnitzel and Potato pancake Ruben. Both good but the latter was the winner in that round. OVERALL great food, limited seating. Arrive early to avoid a long wait. The place fills up quickly because the food is so freakin awesome. I'd give it 6 stars if i could. read more
