Very reasonable bar in the neighborhood! They have a pretty good wine selection, great selection of beers and some snackables! Last we went, vegetarian options were very fried so probably would recommend this as a nice bar in the area. They also have a small nice patio as well. Try it out!! read more

Decided to try this place after reading good reviews but never expected such a horrible experience. Bartender greeted us nicely and said we can have a seat and come back when ready to order only to find out they did not have any sausages which is half of their menu. So ordered the pork schnitzel which was completely over cooked to the point where we were unable to cut it. Smoked wings were also completely dried out. Brie salad looked and tasted really old where we essentially left it after a few bites. Hopefully their sausages are better as the rest of the food was near inedible. read more

Tonight was a wonderful dining experience! We were in town visiting our daughter and family and we decided to try this out. Jackie was wonderful and helped in every way. The food was timely and delicious! Great beer choice! We will be back!! read more

Great beer selection and they serve half pints. The owner and bartenders are super friendly! They make everything in house which is amazing. I can't wait to see what the future holds for the restaurant...they've only been open a week. read more

Cravings happen. This is a place that will be added to your Cravings list. A fun place to frequent for spirits; a dine in spot or even to go! It's a neighborhood spot so it's a great place to go for a quick beer and some pretzels to hit the spot or dining in for a little Schnitzel. We like fish & chips so that's our go-to. The portions aren't that big so grab an appetizer for it to be just enough! read more

This place is still great. The food is fresh and tasty. The beer selection is top notch. They are following COVID guidelines. Friendly staff and great service. read more

My husband and I love this spot. Food is great, they have a good beer selection, & the people are friendly.

One of the best places to a great beer-so many choices and a variety of Dishes with German American twist. My father is of German Heritage and he felt this one best German-American places he has ever been! read more

My local go to! They always remember you when you come in the door and I love that! Highly recommend their smoked wings. But you won't be disappointed with anything you get here! They have a ton of seating in door and some patio seating also! read more

Did we come here two days in a row? Maybe...what of it? Is it awesome? Heck yes!! The burger is fantastic. The beer menu is fantastic. The pineapple cider is fantastic. Can't wait to try it all. Living in Meyerland, the wife and I will be regulars, no doubt. Very excited to have a great place like this right at our door step. Woo hoo! read more

Great German food and fun environment. Service is always friendly and attentive. Love sitting at the bar. I'm

I was so excited to try this german food restaurant and brewery with trivia night! It's located as an anchor in a strip mall but looks modern and nice and new inside. The ambiance isn't much but it's fine, tables are comfortable, and you order at the counter. We tried to order the goulash but they were out which meant we also couldn't have the loaded fries. We also tried to order the sausage sampler, which consists of three half sausages. The restaurant refused to allow us to order this... claiming since they are out of one they couldn't possibly slice other sausages in half or they'd be left with one (but I'm confused on what they do literally every other night since these are the same sausages you can order... just split in half). She also wasn't particularly nice or helpful just refused to let us order that without offering alternatives. We went with the pretzel with a side of the beer cheese which was very tasty and the schnitzel which was unfortunately almost $20 and pretty tasteless. My boyfriend and I each had two beers, one pretzel and the schnitzel and it was somehow $82 before tip, which is outrageous for 4 beers, an appetizer and one entree: we definitely won't be back anytime soon. I'd love to have loved this place but unfortunately we didn't care for the food or the service. read more

Great neighborhood bar! Clean, cozy, service is great! Small food selection but good food!

Great food. Excellent beer selection. Very friendly staff. All around great place. Will be back.

Fantastic restaurant - great food, fun atmosphere, and super friendly staff! The spaetzle was tremendous and the schnitzel was very flavorful. The beer selection was impressive and their samples convinced me to try an awesome beer outside my normal range. If you are looking for authentic German fare in a fun and family friendly venue this is your place! Danke! read more

I love their food and atmosphere! One of my favorite food is fried pork curtlet (so sorry, I forgot the original name..), but others are also good. read more

Good food...particularly the pretzel bites and grilled cheese. 1 star was knocked off as the prices are on the high end. When paying $12+ for a burger I would not expect counter service. read more

Love this place. The German food is on point and the beer menu is really diverse. I asked for a recommendation and bartender/owner nailed it. Staff are really friendly and accommodating. read more

Fantastic, non-chain restaurant in this area. Staff was incredibly friendly, and food was all prepared perfectly. We ordered the chicken schnitzel sandwich, turkey club, and the garlic brat (forget the name). Everything was great, but the brat was the clear standout. I rarely get impressed with bread, but the pretzel bun it was served in truly caught me by surprise. It was terrific. The tots and sweet potato fries were crispy how we like. Extensive draft beer selection, as well as some good signature drink options. One of the only places in the area to catch a game and have a couple beers. Can't wait to get back! read more

Always delicious and located in Westbury! Wish more fun, local restaurants would move in to the area!

My husband is from the SW Rhine River area of Germany. When we moved to Houston 6 months ago we were disappointed that there were only a few places with German food, this place was not on any of the search results. I promise I have done every search and we've tried the places that came up on google. The other places may have the Bavarian look or the Bierhaus style, but they've come up short on the food. I went shopping this afternoon in an area I've not explored, I saw the grocery and was headed there to get things to make for dinner when out of the corner of my eye I saw a bar that had Schnitzel written on the window. I brought the car to a halt, did a quick search on the name and discovered Watershed. . I normally would've tried the schnitzel and spätzle but I'm trying to go low carb so I chose the apple walnut Brie salad and sausage sampler for me and the Schweinsaxe for my husband. The salad was fresh and delicious, I wish the poppy seed dressing had a little more vinegar wang but I was glad that it wasn't sweet. I was told they were out of the sampler, so I was given a full size Weisswurst and Bratwurst instead. Traditionally Weisswurst would be boiled ( and white). This was chargrilled and not white but nonetheless both sausages were flavorful. They did lack a little fat or density...something was missing to give us the authenticity of a good wurst, but I'd eat it again anyway. I liked the curry ketchup and we both really enjoyed the sauerkraut, however we were disappointed that the kraut was served as a condiment and not as a side. It was really good! I wasn't offered a bite of my husband's pork but the only thing left on his plate was a bare bone, so I guess he liked it. He did say he wished it had some crispy skin on it. Since I ordered to go, I can't really comment on the service, although the bartender was friendly and made me a stiff gin and tonic while I waited. Next time we'll eat in and believe me there will be a next time. read more

Got it for takeout tonight (thanks COVID-19) and oh my sweet schnitzel. SO IMPRESSED. Y'all, I consider myself a pretty good cook. I 've been doing alright cooking our meal the last few weeks. We've been enjoying our home cooking. We've picked up a few to go orders, and every time have been like, yes this is good but I could have made this and it would've maybe been the same or better. But y'all, I could never reproduce the flavors i got tonight. It was amazing and everything I didn't know I needed. The schnitzel was authentic, moist, and full of flavor. The fish was cooked to perfection. The fries were the perfect amount of crunch, and the apple Brie salad was proportional perfection. We were recommended by a friend to try this place out, and I promise we will be coming back frequently. I would love to try again to see the atmosphere inside the restaurant, but of course it will have to wait. 10/10 recommend. Better than German food I 've had in New Braunfels (which says a lot). read more

Fun place to watch the Astros!! The food was disappointing. The starter we had was the artichoke dip, the dip was great, but the bread that came with it was burnt is places, and that taste overwhelms the entire appetizer. If you don't eat the bread, it's good. The meal, I choose was the burger, the tejas burger. It had a weird taste to it, but ate it anyways. But the sweet potatoe fries tasted burnt, couldnt eat them. Though I love me some sweet potato fries, no bueno here. read more

This place hires people with sticks up their asses. Called ahead to see if the patio was available and they sounded extremely displeased to speak on the phone with me. Showed up and they were very rude yelling at everyone to wear masks who stood up from their tables even if they were up for just a few seconds. Would not take my boyfriends ID. It's unfortunate because their beers and brats looked good but we will not be back. read more

I had a bowl of goulash and a pint of Hausbrau lager. Fantastic. We ate outside, but noticed that indoor seating was widely spread and well ventilated. read more

Super nice people! They ran out of my order and gave me beer while I waited for another. And the food was great!

The ambience is great. It is close to our house. However, the food is just bland. I don't understand how the food can get such rave reviews. We've eaten there about four times in the last six months and the food has been underwhelming each time. I get it that German food is not necessarily my go-to food. But there's multiple items on the menu that I've eaten in other places that were done much better. They have one excellent dessert, the apple danish thing. Others may be good, but we've not tried it. They also have a good beer selection. Due to the ambience, the dessert item and their beer selection, it gets a three. If going here just for the food, it would be lower. read more

Bar in a strip mall parking lot with a barren patio with picnic tables, no shade. Inside had booths and tables but the kitchen vapors/exhaust were very strong due to poor ventilation. No service, go to the bar to order food and drinks and they bring them to your table. Good draft beer selection. My son's burger was sixteen-fifty and his verdict was "meh". Cabbage rolls plus 2 sides were twenty-three, hot potato salad was small boiled potatoes mixed with mustard, awful. Pork schnitzel plus 2 sides and sauce was twenty-nine. Digital check-out asked for eighteen percent+ tip to continue. Overpriced fair to poor food with no service or atmosphere. Won't be back. read more

Pretty decent selection of beer, but atmosphere does not feel warm at all. We chose to sit in the outdoor area because it was freezing inside. No music or service for beer drinkers outside, so it was a little annoying to have to get up and reorder from the bar, especially when server is checking on table next to you because they ordered food. Once they left, sergers were coming in and out but it was like we didn't even exist. read more

My family and I decided to order "to go" and got the bratwurst with all the fixings and fries. Everything was delicious! We will definitely come back to try more of the menu! read more

I wish this place was awesome but it's not. The food is mediocre and overpriced - not a great combo.

We ordered the pork shank, schnitzel dinner, sausage selection and kids Hot Dog for takeout. Upfront, the fact that we asked for German (bottled) beer and were only offered variations of Budweiser and a grapefruit induced Austrian parody of a beer should have made us suspicious. In a nutshell, if you are looking for a place that serves German food, keep on looking. This is one is not it. In fact run and take your money elsewhere. Review in detail: - Pork shank: Dry and with a very strange, "wine" induced side dish. - Schnitzel dinner: Such a sad parody. Pork was tough as leather, breading, instead of crispy and fluffy, was soggy and dripping of fat. The Spatzle were literally swimming in fat and lacking any hint of cheese flavor. The mashed potatoes tasted of butter only. This dish was worse than at any Bahnhofsspelunke. - Sausage selection: I've been trying for a long time to find a butcher in Houston that offers sausage that gets close to what is being offered in Germany. Seems like Watershed has struggled with the same endeavor ... and given up. Not only did none of the three sausages even closely resemble a typical German sausage, two of the three varieties offered were outright disgusting. This was a massive disappointment. - Hot dog: The hot dog is an American invention, so unsurprisingly you get an American sausage (which was too sweet but else decent) in a German pretzel type breading. The pretzel was tiny but actually pretty good ... the only item in a $80 order that this can be said for. Staff seemed stressed and was semi rude, barking at me a "are you waiting for anything?" after I had paid ... but not received my order. Yeah, I am waiting for what I just paid for. Don't bother asking if you can help me. Lastly, If as a restaurant you choose to ignore any CDC guidelines and admit guests in a crowded space without masks, that is one thing. Not a smart thing when ICUs don't have vacancies, but a decision I can understand from a business perspective. It bothers me massively, however, when waiters don't wear their masks and, far worse, it's frankly disgusting - Covid or no Covid - when all of the cooks are unmasked and ungloved. We have a Covid and RSV and flu wave going around for Pete's sake, just pretend to care about creating a sanitary environment for your guests. Overall, this was a massive disappointment. I was excited to get some home food in a newfound location close to my neighborhood, but instead will explore other options. This was not just horrible food but a bad service experience. Two stars for the pretzel. Maybe they should just sell pretzel and Budweiser. read more

Came here once before the pandemic and visited again recently. Still great food and great service. Nice patio. Spouse had the burger and I had the fish and chips. Both were excellent. Will stop back in, especially for their perfectly made fries -- fresh, hot, and crispy! read more

This review is for the beer and service since I have not yet had their food. Awesome beer selection, I count 25 beers on tap, all craft/small brew. Excellent service, the owners/managers are super friendly and even kept the place open after closing for people coming in for a drink. They are just getting started and I'm looking forward to coming back soon - Cheers! read more

Great local family owned and operated pub/restaurant. Excellent selection of beers on tap, nice outdoor seating, House burger was delicious, tots were AMAZING! Support our local businesses! Enjoy!! read more

Popped in on Saturday for a quick lunch and wound up staying for about 2 hours. The vibe is really cool and the food is great. I had the girl cheese which one might say is a simple sandwich to make; its one of my favorites, and I don't know what they do but it was one of the best I've had. They also have a great beer selection along with a friendly staff. I'll be back for sure next time in the area! read more

Really good! Nice, clean and open with a great vibe. Food was all very tasty- we tried spinach dip, weisswurst and the fish and chips. Very diverse tap list. Great to have a cool spot like this nearby! It's nice to not have to venture into the rice village area and deal with parking if we don't have to And very kid friendly too! read more

Really good neighborhood German pub food. Their food is higher quality than you would expect. You can tell they make their own kraut and their sausages are flavorful. Top that off with 30+ beers, nice helpful staff and a clean stylish place and you can't go wrong. read more

Meyerland has a non chain from scratch restaurant! The owner is friendly and greets patrons. Atmosphere is cute. Food is better than you expect it to be. They smoke their cheeses and meats, home make their pasta and kraut. We got the Reuben, Fish and Chips, Pretzels, and Texas Burger. I think my favorite was the burger, but the smoked meat on the Reuben and side of spetzel was good, too. Fish and chips were good but pretty standard. The decor in the restaurant is fun. I love the posters from EMO's, Rudyards, and an old penant from Astroworld, etc. Its a local neighborhood place with some character. Exactly what we needed around here. read more
