Scholz Garten quickly became a popular gathering spot for the German community in and around Austin.

The fried chicken tenders were flavorful and perfectly breaded in a classic schnitzel style—crispy but not overwhelming. The German-style potato salad was a standout with its delicious lemony tang, and the bacon added a perfect savory complement to the flavors. Scholz Garten, the oldest Biergarten in America, delivers both history and quality with this meal. A well-balanced and satisfying experience!

Hands down the best Reuben in Austin. Everything was delicious, the portions are big, and the leftovers reheat really well the next day. I love beer cheese and this one is a standout among all the ones I've ever tried.

Spent several years stationed in Germany, was looking forward to good German food. This aint it. The Jagerschnitzel even with the "mushroom gravy" was very bland. The potato pancakes with gravy were a little less bland. Mushroom gravy did not taste like mushrooms at all, or gravy for that matter. VERY disappointed. Not worth the money.

The Giant Bavarian Pretzel is awesome, big and soft! Wings are crispy. Reuben Sammy is yummy

So glad to sit down for a delicious German meal with my dad and brother. Together for the first time in 7 years and I couldn't wait to share this restaurant with them. We were stationed in Berlin years ago and it was the most delicious time of our lives. Thanks for giving us a taste again.
