The German Cafe — Restaurant in Sierra Vista

My friends and I visited The German Cafe on Saturday, October 19, 2019. I ordered the Jagerschnitzel which is a pork tender with a brown mushroom gravy. It was moist and quite tasty and served with the perfect breading on the outside to compliment it further. My sides included the Spatzle pasta and the Cucumber salad. Both were incredibly amazing. Even my left overs the following day were incredibly delicious. The German Chocolate cake was made to perfection as well. This was my first experience with German cuisine and this restaurant is a must return on my bucket list when I'm in the Sierra Vista area. In regards to the preparation time, everything is made fresh and on the spot so be patient with the wait time as a home cooked meal is not "fast food." With this understanding, you'll appreciate the special atmosphere with no visible cell phones present. The dining customers were sharing stories, smiling, walking babies around the tables and one adorable couple was holding hands over the table while enjoying this quality time together. It was also so cool and authentic to listen to the young waitresses speak in German to the German speaking customers. I know the waitresses were working hard, so please don't worry and stress when things get busy. Excellent food is worth the wait! Customers don't mind waiting for an authentic meal that is prepared on the spot. Im sure that's why you have many return customers. One suggestion...It is important not to judge a customer before given the opportunity to tip. Apparently, two of my other friends paying before me did not tip (honestly, I'm not sure as I wasn't monitoring their transactions). However, my other friend and I combined our meals on one ticket. I paid the bill of $30 plus and she was paying the tip and left $12 and some change. I understand it was crowded and overwhelming, but the one waitress appeared angry and made comments before we had a chance to provide that $12 and change tip. We were being kind and understanding with the crowded setting so please do the same...

This was truly a surprise and a treat for ones palate. I was not expecting a flavor that took me back to Karlsruhe Germany. The food is truly authentic and delicious, the service is outstanding and for a moment you are able to picture yourself in a small cafe back in Germany. I strongly recommend the German Cafe to anyone that misses the flavors of Germany or anyone that wants to experience it for the first time, you will not be disappointed. On a separate note, I took the time to read some of the reviews and I am at a total loss and wonder about the authenticity of the negative reviews. Based on my current experience even a picky eater would have a hard time finding fault with the flavors or service at this Cafe. I have tried others in town and I do not mean to take anything from them, there were some good aspects of their establishment BUT the outstanding flavor of my meal coupled with the excellent friendly service and atmosphere was a pleasurable memory of being back in Germany and is worthy of a review in excess of 5 stars. So please if your review is not authentic lets not hurt the small business. If your negative review is sincere and accurate I am sorry that you did not get to have the experience I had and that I am looking forward to again. Since my return to Sierra Vista I have found very few restaurants of international cuisine that are worthy of a review. The German Cafe has earned a 5+ Star rating. Don't just take my word for it please give them a try. I assure you that you will not be...

The food was delicious. The ambience is cozy accompanied with German antiques coo coo clock lederhosen claded little figurines and other cute German artifacts. The waitress was outstanding as a server and as a human being. It was a 50 degree chilly day outside and I forgot, I put my purse on the seat of other chair. I put in my coat gloves and scarf on and my purse was not on my chair. Sometimes, I don't always bring it with me when I'm with my husband.Other times my husband grabs it for me due to it being sooo heavy. I got up, left, and forgot I put it under the other seat. As I drove down the road, a mile, I said to my husband, "where's my purse?" Sometimes he picks it up for me. I have everything and the kitchen sink in there. I was mortified it was left behind. I raced back to the restaurant in silence, too upset and embarrassed for words. The waitress when she saw me, immediately, took my purse out of safe keeping, from under the counter. Everything was there, as it always had been, untouched. I am so impressed that nothing was stolen. My waitress really took care of me. She was sweet, personable, efficient, organized as she maneuvered and waited the entire room, and most importantly integriteous, which is a quality that is lacking in so many people. She was impressive!!! I would highly reccomend this wonderful, charming restaurant, and fabulous waitress to everyone. What a wonderful experience! It is a must visit restaurant when traveling to Sierra Vista! Thanks to our dear server! You...
