    Fresh made apple strudel. Delicious!
    Joseph F.

    Stopped in on our way to Fredricksburg and it was well worth the detour! We got the German Oak Platter since there was no way we could have decided what to get. Let me tell you: everything was amazing!! We arrived a bit before they actually opened and we got to see them bringing in fresh ingredients so we knew it was going to be good. Both the husband and wife are super nice and made us feel like family! The outside is quaint and rustic, it fits right in to the area! The Platter comes with you choice of 5 meats, 4 sides, a pretzel and a strudel of your choosing. We got the chicken schnitzel, the pork schnitzel, the currywurst, the beef brat and the country brat. For sides we chose the cucumber salad, red cabbage, potato salad and cheese spatzel. For dessert we opted for the apple strudel. Her favorite was the currywusrt (her first time have it) and mine was the country brat, but everything was simply delicious and did I mention fresh? The pretzel and the strudel are made fresh in house, as is the schnitzel. We'll definitely come back, in fact I am already planning to get some riding buddies together to ride out just for lunch.

    I love this place!!! Schnitzel is just perfect!! Made to order, so fresh and tasty. The service is great and so friendly. There is a cute and rustic addition to eat in there with a wood burning stove. It was so cozy today on a cloudy day! Ordered the schnitzel sandwich with cheesy spatzle... the gravy is to die for! It was so yummy, I ordered a schnitzel plate to go for dinner and maybe even breakfast if there are any left overs!!! Go to Tiny Schnitzel Haus!!!

    The decor is quirky and fun. It's a trailer that has been converted into a take out stop for some amazing German food. There is a small indoor seating space. They have a very extensive menu with lots of options. Many authentic dishes that stay true to their original flavors. The pretzels are amazing. All things on the menu are homemade. The owners are extremely knowledgeable and personable! You feel like you are visiting a friend. You can clearly tell that they put their heart and soul into this place.

    This is the German platter with 5 meats, 4 sides, a pretzel and a schnitzel. Great for sharing

    The food is fantastic and the owners are building this place into a great German experience

    Round 2!!! Been almost 2 months and been dreaming of this place the whole time!! Took my daughter this time so we got some different food today! But.. as usual.. 10/10!! Today we got the pleasure of meeting the chef .. the husband. He's just as awesome as his wife! Sadly we went late and they only had a SMALL pretzel left but that was my fault for not going earlier. I stuck to the schnitzel plate with the potato salad. My daughter got the schnitzel wrap. My son got the homemade braut plate. Plussss.. we had to get the cherry strudel. It was hot as hell up there today so the chef kindly told us we could sit in our car with AC and he would bring our order to us. Less than 15 minutes later he brought out our bags of amazing food!! We all had to take a few bites before we got back on the road on our way back down to San Antonio and I'll tell you it is always worth the drive!! Next time.. going early for a BIG PRETZEL!! So appreciate the authenticity and love put into this amazing German food.

    We've heard so much about Tiny Schnitzel Haus that we had to visit. My husband grew up in Germany and misses authentic German food. We're just down the road from Pipe Creek so checking this gem was a no-brainer. Oh my! We loved it. There were only two of us but we ordered the huge German Oak platter to get a chance to try a bit of everything. It was delicious. From the different wurst options to the fantastic schnitzel with jaeger sauce on the side. Don't miss the yummy sides. We had German potato salad, cucumber salad, and had an order of kraut balls as well. That huge pretzel was also delectable. We want Black Forest cake too but had to get it to go. We were stuffed. The family that owns and operates this great little venue are warm and welcoming. They took the time to tell us about the place and their plans for the future. We live this place and will visit lots.

    An amazing piece of Germany in Pipe Creek. Kimberly was so nice and welcoming, and explained the menu as it was our first time here. The schnitzel was fresh (you could hear them pounding it) and everyone loved their meals. We sat outside and the food was brought out hot and delicious. This is a must go place for anyone who likes good food and good people!!

    We arrived early but the owner was super friendly. Her husband is originally from Germany so most of the recipes are from his Grandmother. She took the time to explain everything thoroughly! It's a food truck that had an open porch that they are now enclosing. There are fans and a window unit inside as well as outdoor seating. Everything is freshly made,(I hear her beating the pork as we eat our pretzel) lol Pork schnitzel, schnitzel sandwich, beef brat, apple strudel-had spatzel and cucumber salad-loved it all- get more mushroom sauce to pour over the spatzel

    Schnitzel, Spaetzel, potato salad, mushroom gravy, and a interesting little lemon squeezer

    I saw that this restaurant had opened up in Pipe Creek and wanted to try it. Since my camper is stored two miles away from it, I decided that I would wait until I needed to go to the storage lot for some reason. One Saturday, I needed to drop some things off and pick some things up, so I invited my son to ride along and told him we would eat German food after that. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond the restaurant's control, they had to shut down that day, and we ended up driving to San Antonio to eat somewhere else. Today, I had to go to Pipe Creek to winterize my camper and decided to stop in to the Tiny Schnitzel Haus for lunch. When I arrived, I was the only person there. I ordered my meal and immediately heard the sound of pork being pounded coming from the kitchen. They make everything fresh to order like that. I took a seat in the little dining room and waited for my food. It was a short wait. My meal choice was pork schnitzel, spaetzle, and potato salad. They had some mushroom gravy, so I actually had JagerSchnitzel. It came with a tiny little device to squeeze fresh lemon juice on it. I had never seen one of those. Anyway, I took a bite of everything to try it out. The potato salad was really good. It had nice seasonings and didn't rely on an over-sweetened vinegar base like so many places use. The spaetzle was nearly identical to the kind my mother's friend made. It was nicely seasoned and soft. I don't care for the dry chewy stuff. The schnitzel was pounded perfectly thin. The breading was very light and crispy and did not overpower the pork. The mushroom gravy was perfect. The chef knows exactly what to do to get the full flavor of the mushrooms. It was on the thinner side, which is a plus. I wish I had tried some of the baked goods, but I wasn't really hungry when I started. I brought about half of my meal home and had it for supper. It was just as delicious the second time around. The only way I can describe this venue is "cute". They use a trailer for the kitchen, but have built around it in a really interesting way. The dining room used to be a deck. When they closed it in, they kept some windows. I was entertained by a woodpecker who seemed to be begging to join me. The owners are very nice people. The wife, who took my order and served it to me, chatted with me for a few minutes. I felt like I was sitting in some friend's living room chatting. I can't wait to come back with both my son and my wife. She won't eat a lot of ethnic foods, but she does like bratwurst. They have several different kinds. Plus, I can't imagine her leaving without ordering one of their homemade pretzels! One last thing... For those of you who think it is too far to drive to Pipe Creek- trust me. It is not. It took me thirty minutes from my house on Mainland off of Bandera. It would have taken me just as long to go to any restaurant on the I-10 corridor.

    Best shirt ever? I think so!

    WHAT A GEM! This little piece of heaven is like transporting your taste buds to Germany. The food is DEVINE. If you're in the area, this is a must stop for any foodie. You won't be disappointed. I've been twice now, and with both visits, I had an amazing experience. Not only is the food beyond impressive, but the owners are delightful people! Thank you!!

    The last time I had currywurst that I liked this much was in Frankfurt near the airport, like 15 years ago. Such good texture in the hand-made spaetzel, too. My husband is 100% Hill Country German, and he is currently inhaling the chicken schnitzel sandwich. Try to stop here if you can!

    We love the Auslander. We visit Fredericksburg often and eat here quite a bit. I am a pescatarian…read moreand I appreciate that they have non-meat items on the menu. My wife eats meat so she had the schnitzel with red cabbage and German potato salad. I had the pecan crusted red fish with delicious green beans and German potato salad. All our food was delicious and served hot. I had a Stein of Paulander Hefeweisen imported beer which was very nice with my food. Christian was our server and he did a great job in meeting all of our needs. He was friendly and very professional. We will ask for him again when we eat there.

    The Auslander had a tinge to a reasonable German vibe in terms of the ambiance. The restaurant had…read morea warm beer hall feel to it. Service was prompt and friendly. Restaurant was clean. For those that have issues finding parking on the Main Street, it's good to note that they have a small lot in the back for customers as well. Alstadt Peach Radler - Top of the list of what I personally enjoyed at the Auslander. This beer was a light, crisp, and refreshing beer with a hint of peach flavor. Definitely something to enjoy on a hot day. This was my happy place drink. Beer Battered Mushrooms - The shrooms here were better than most other German establishments I've dined at. Reasonably sized mushrooms with a non overly heavy batter. Portions were bigger than expected and would readily satisfy a group of four. Jägerschnitzel - A fair sized slab of fried pork goodness smothered in a red wine mushroom gravy. The pork loin was a good thickness and not an overly pounded thin cutlet. Breading was good, but didn't stick much to the protein. Gravy was just okay in my opinion and had a hint of sourness to it for some reason. Not a terrible entree but wasn't mind blowing either. Currywurst - The bratwurst with this meal was a solid portion of meat that was full of porky goodness. Curry ketchup had the spice flavoring to it, but wasn't particularly strong. It was a fair entree, nothing mind blowing, but still a good comfort dish. Sides - All the entrees came with a choice of two sides. Fries were just fries... good, but nothing special. Mashed potatoes tasted like the usual suspect, mashed potatoes. Potato salad was properly cooked and prepared with some simple vinegary and cream flavors. Red cabbage tasted like vinegared red cabbage. All in all, the sides were just okay. Everything was for the most part clear cut of what was good and just okay. In that terms, there seemed to be a strange and wildly large chasm between what was okay and good in terms of the food. I was satisfied at the end of the meal, but at the same time not unhappy nor super happy with my meal. I was just... satisfied/okay. Food felt a bit overpriced for what we received, otherwise this establishment felt more like a one-and-done type of place.

    While passing through Fredericksburg with my wife, we were ready for a good German meal. Checking…read moreYelp, we discover that on a Tuesday evening, most of the German restaurants in town have already closed at 3pm. That's when Otto's stood out to us. Not only was it the first restaurant to show up on Yelp (very highly rated), but also it was OPEN. While it may have been an accident that we chose Otto's, it was a lucky break. They were awesome. It was very busy, so we had to eat on the patio, but our table had plenty of shade and a nice breeze from a wall fan. It's a block off the main drag, so you don't have to put up with lots of traffic going by. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food didn't take too long to come out. The selections were fairly extensive. The food quality, portion sizes and flavor were spot on. We also highly recommend the Black Forest cake.

    I found Otto's to be a bit disappointing. Maybe it's just that German isn't the type of cuisine…read morethat should be elevated... It's great the way it is, and trying to make it fancy doesn't make it better. But I've always thought that if a restaurant has only a few options on its menu, they had better all be great, and I didn't find that to be the case at Otto's. One of us had the schnitzel au gratin, which seemed more to be like a chicken Parmesan. I had the duck schnitzel. I would say they were just both OK. The fried potatoes that came with the au gratin schnitzel were left largely untouched on my companion's plate. There wasn't much flavor to my red cabbage, and my spaetzel seemed to be more like a modern day risotto. And this at a restaurant that makes you leave your credit card for a reservation and threatens to charge if you cancel less than 24 hours before. For that, it had better knock my socks off. But my socks are still on, and they won't be walking back to Otto's. Extra star for the great location.
