Our experience here was mediocre. It was neither bad nor great, just middle of the road. We prefer some other German restaurants in the Tampa metro area.

I just can't recommend this place. Snitzel was only available in pork. It was a little tough, a little dry and tasteless. We neither liked the way they prepared kraut. It wasn't eaten.

We were walking up Central Avenue looking for a place to eat and found the German Knodle. I have family that lives in Germany, so I’m always on the lookout for a good German restaurant in town. We had to give this place a try. We were seated right away by the owner, she was so friendly! I even got it practice my German with her.We chose to sit outside and enjoy the wonderful weather. The place is simply decorated, but has delicious food. I tried their ‘Vienna Schnitzel’ and it was delicious. My fiancé tried their ‘Jager Schnitzel’ and thoroughly enjoyed it. We both tried their potato salad as a side, and it was delicious. We loved the raw onion in there! We enjoyed some German beer along side our meal.The service was quick and friendly. The place was super clean too. The next time we’re in St. Pete we will definitely be back. Highly recommend the German Knodle as a place to enjoy some good German food and [email protected]

My bride & I, while spending the day in St Pete, happened upon this cute place and decided give it a try! Great choice all around! We sat outside (beautiful, warm, sunny afternoon) and enjoyed a wonderful late and very tasty lunch. The gal, who waited on us & also cooks, was wonderful. A great dark German beer and delectable German food and a beautiful German server/cook/conversationalist made Valentines Day 2024 an absolutely great day. This place is highly recommended by both my bride and I!

Very authentic and delicious German food. Extensive options of different traditional German sausages on the menu and schnitzel that is pounded fresh each day. Even the sides for potatoe salad, sauerkraut, and fries are killer. Good variety of traditional German beers also. The employees are German so you know it’s gonna be good! Very nice an ambient outside area as well.Vegetarian options: Vegan sausages

Hubs and I restaurant hopped last night at four places on central. At each we ordered at least one plate. Here we ordered the weisswurst and currywurst with sides of saurkraut and potato salad. My hubs used to live in Germany so was really keen to try this place. The weisswurst was very good and for this we'd return. It is cooked on a grill not the traditional in water but I liked this even better and they take the time to tell you that before you order. Service was a little slow, it seemed like they had a single person servicing all tables so we didn't mind and in general it was a beautiful night to sit outside. Only downside here was a table right next to us was continously smoking and we never care for that but I think we could have moved and didn't so that's on us.

Sausages, pretzel, sauerkraut were great. French fries might be best in the world. Beer selection was good but limited, wish they had much more options but its ok cuz id come back just for the food. Service was friendly and quick, we enjoyed everything and hope they stay in business for a long long time! Prost!

I spend a lot of time all throughout Germany and know a lot of great German cooks.Schnitzel was terrible, sauerkraut was fantastic! Goulash was fantastic! Beers at awesome! Sausages good. Server was very nice! They should try way harder on the schnitzel! They can’t do a bratwurst on a crusty hard roll with hot German mustard and that’s what I wanted.
