    Everything Melanie makes is amazing!!!!!!!!! I love how she also sticks to her concept! Schnitzels/schnitzel sandwiches/ Spatzele and Ger! My fav is the chicken German with Aioli! The veggies topped ate fresh and crispy! The Meat is tender and juicy! You won't be disappointed eating anything here! Trust me! Oh and yes she's really German, a lot of people actually ask that when i've been to the food truck lol!

    Always hot and fresh. The different variations of sandwiches are awesome. I always look for the truck when it's in the Reston area.

    Exceptional food and welcoming service!!!!!…read more Euro Bistro offers a fantastic dining experience. The food is thoughtfully prepared, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. Every dish tasted fresh and well balanced, and the menu has a great variety without feeling overwhelming. The staff was attentive and friendly, making the meal feel relaxed and enjoyable. The atmosphere is warm and comfortable, perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. Overall, Euro Bistro delivers quality, consistency, and great service. It's a place I'd happily return to and confidently recommend.

    Euro Bistro has been around since 1999. A friend and I went to lunch there before Yelp existed…read more We enjoyed their lunch. At the time their concept was one that offered entrees from different European countries. My friend, who is a vegetarian, was pleased to find an entree that she could eat. Over the years, we never did return there for our lunch meet ups. Nor did my husband and I get there. You know...so many restaurants, so little time. We recently gave thought to the idea of having dinner there. What prompted us was due to picking up a pizza at Marcos, which is next door. We looked up their current menu while we waited for our pizza and liked what we saw. We were here on a Saturday around 5 p.m. Business was slow then but steadily picked up. We were seated and greeted. A server came around to bring water as we looked over the menu. When we were ready to give our order, an older woman, whom we think is the manager came to take it. She was very friendly, polite and efficient. We noticed that she regularly checked on all the diners. The menu is mostly German food with some elements from other cuisines. For example, you can get a Thai iced tea to go with your meal. We started out with an appetizer and chose Caprese salad. This was a simple one with 4 slices of mozzarella, 4 ripe tomato slices and a drizzle of balsamic. We both thought it was well prepared and the portion size was just right for two. Also, a small portion of bread and butter is brought to the table. For my main course, I chose Weinerschnitzel made with white meat chicken. It was accompanied with a small cup of gravy, which was meat based. Also, entrees come with a side of one's choice. I chose German potato salad. My husband got the Sausage Platter which has 3 different sausages---bratwurst, knackwurst, and baurenwurst plus some sauerkraut. He, too, chose German potato salad as his size. Also, a small cup of mustard comes with this dish. As for the food---I thought my Weinerschnitzel was well prepared and arrived while it was hot. This dish comes with 3 thin cutlets. I used the gravy which amped up the flavor. My husband really liked his sausage dish. He enjoyed each sausage and thought the mustard worked well with them. Neither of us cared for the German potato salad. While we appreciate that it is house made, we didn't like how one forkful would taste sweet while the next forkful was sour. Perhaps the dressing hadn't been mixed well. We decided to share a dessert and chose the apple strudel. This was quite tasty. It was tender and easy to cut with a fork and nicely flavored. A small cup of vanilla ice cream comes with it plus a side of whipped cream and the plate was garnished with strawberry syrup. The decor was nice with lots of artwork, including a Van Gogh poster. We enjoyed looking at the art. We both agree that we would return again. If you go, take note as the evening progresses, parking gets tight in the small lot. Just backing out of our spot was stressful. Next time, we would park further away in the same lot in a section that doesn't get crowded.

    Fun place, good atmosphere (modern German w/o being douchy or fake)…read more Had maybe the best schnitzel I've ever had - it was crunchy and tender, but also had great flavor (rare) and was almost "light" - I say almost bc nothing deepn fried is trully light but this ate that way. Excellent spot, look forward to going again next time in in Old Town.

    My experience at this restaurant was mixed. While the food itself was fine, the service left me and…read moremy husband feeling awkward and uncomfortable by the end. Our assigned server only came to our table twice--once to take our order and once to drop off the check. It was another staff member who actually provided a majority of the service - she brought us warm bread, delivered our food, and refilled our drinks multiple times. When it came time to pay, I paid in cash using a larger bill. The server assumed I was giving a large tip and was about to walk away with no intention of giving me my change. I made no comment of "keep the change" I then had to awkwardly ask for my change back so I could leave a tip separately. He proceeded to ask how much change I wanted, putting me on the spot and feeling pressured to leave a large tip (mind you, I was going to already leave a tip). Because of this, I ended up leaving a much larger tip (over 50%) than I had intended, especially considering the level of service he provided us. I understand that I could have been more firm about asking for all my change back, but guests should never feel pressured or uncomfortable when paying. Overall, the service experience with our waiter overshadowed what could have been an otherwise enjoyable visit.

Onto the service, our server Danica was GREAT!! She explained everything on the menu, was quick to get our drinks and refills, as busy as it was she didn't rush us to order and talked to us. The food was delicious! I started with the French onion soup to start, it was great and topped with not only the cheese it had fried onions on top which gave it a nice crunch. I followed that up with Sauerbraten with a deep flavorful sauce, red cabbage and potato dumplings, Yummmmmm! After all that I gave in and ordered the apple strudel ala mode, very tasty, and a nice crust! Overall the whole experience was great! Worth the hour and a half ride. The Bavarian Inn is a must try, once you do you'll want to keep coming back. Enjoy!!

I coulda gone to a Starbucks or picked any one of the MANY pastry specialty shops along the way buttttt why would I? LOL. Decent Margarita (learning to say HECK NOOOO to Montezuma ... IYKYK). Super limited HH menu but the chicken skewer I ordered did not disappoint. Would order again. Juicy nuggets (clearly NOT air fried), decent tzatziki sauce, FRESH grilled veggies (albeit no seasoning *sigh*). 25+ beers on tap. Personally, I'm not a beer drinker (besides an occasional Stella or Modelo) buttt 25+ seems pretty impressive to me for a bar this size. Flyers promote stand up comedy events and some more! Sheesh, for the 40 minutes I was there, I can confirm they clearly have a strong presence on King Street. Most def recommending and personally, would most def return ... I'm super curious about the "wurst on a roll" and the rooftop setting (which wasn't open yet). Again, in my 49 minute time frame ... they lost A LOT of business because the roof top was not open. EXCELLENT play list ... YASSS to the late 90's - early 2K rap! In all honesty, this is the reason I gave them 4 stars. Alright, Body on Me (Nelly, Ashanti & Akon) is blaring ... gotta go pretend I can sing. When you come, share which beer, HH snack or entree YOU ordered and tell them you saw it on Yelp!

I went to the bar and successfully placed our order within the happy hour timeframe. However, the drinks were later billed at full price. When I asked about honoring happy hour pricing, I was told I should have waited to be served at the table--even though that would have occurred after happy hour ended. This was disappointing, as we ordered within the advertised window and expected the pricing to be honored. Also- the margaritas were not very good
