    The schnitzel is awesome; try them with any of the sauces! The rösti you get as part of the meal is awesome! (Picture is of Jäger Schnitzel)

    Pork knuckle is nice. It is massive so order to share between two and order a litre of tap beer to go with it.

    Big fan of Austrian / German food, visited Vienna a few times and Essen's schnitzel is the real deal, best in Sydney!

    I am often asked by work colleagues "Was the food good?" what would you say? Bloody delicious as you can tell!

    Without any doubt the best schnitzel in Sydney. You'd better give it a try!

    I ordered the pork knuckle and was very disappointed! It looked impressive but it was a big bone and hard to get the meat off -mostly fat. They don't even have German beer on tap!

    Schofferhofer Kristal is a lovely crisp beer served chille in a tall glass. Do try.

    Schnitzel is good, and massive. Pork knuckle is also massive but no crackly... I would not recommend the knuckle. Actually very dissappointed.
