Bavarian Grill

3425 Premier Dr. Plano

972-881-0705

German, Bars and Clubs, Recommended, Best Of

Pick a schnitzel, any schnitzel. Plano's strip mall gem, Bavarian Grill, which has offered fine German/Bavarian fare since 1993, is still totally worth the drive north. Their lightly pan-fried Rahm schnitzel with a light cream sauce is divine indulgence. And oh the Spätzle. The fresh pasta is a perfect counter to red cabbage and an excellent target for extra gravy. Bavarian Grill also offers a vegetarian menu (and it isn't sparse) as well as nightly musical entertainment. Stein Hour, afternoons from 4 to 7, might be the best time to go, as you can munch on delicious appetizers like the crispy frikadelle meatloaf with sauteed onions and mustard or the hearty, meaty goulash for just 95 cents apiece. Be sure to have your server sign your Stein Club card, which entitles you to various rewards after you cycle through all the beer offerings. If you can't visit Germany, you can, at least, eat there…via Plano.

Black Forest Biergarten

1804 McMillan Ave, Dallas / Fort Worth Park Cities

German, Bars and Clubs, Recommended

The interior is small. Dark accent paneling climbs halfway up the red brick walls, which are adorned by a handful of flat-screen TVs. A copper-top bar spans the entire space, and two clear garage-style doors divide the interior from the half-covered patio, where most of the seating is. The menu, like everything else, is German-themed. Items include potato latkes, bratwursts, German potato salad, sauerkraut and a "giant Bavarian soft pretzel," which is a whopping 16 ounces and comes served with melted butter and Dusseldorf mustard. There are 10 beers on tap and while most are, of course, German, local favorite Franconia Maibock made the cut. There are also canned and bottled beer options, select wines and cocktails.

Fritzl’s Euro Grill

3390 Lakeview Parkway, Rowlett Garland & Vicinity

972-412-3555

German, Recommended, Slideshow

“Kick Ass Schnitzel,” the menu description read. “Ja! Ja! Ja! Hey, Bubba. Still feel Macho, Try me. I am a lonely Pork Loin covered in a Fresh Habanero Garlic Sauce and can’t move. ‘Beyond Spicy!’ Eat Me!! Don’t hate me. ‘Angel Soft’ not included.” With a menu item like that, who could resist? The Kick Ass Schnitzel, like all of the schnitzels at Fritzl’s, comes in a “half” portion suited for normal humans or a “full” portion capable of feeding triathletes, sumo wrestlers or Michael Phelps. A “fifth-generation pastry chef” from Austria, Klaus Fritz settled down in Texas after years working kitchens in fine-dining spots, hotels and cruise ships. His menu at Fritzl’s is simple, straightforward and schnitzel-heavy. The schnitzel, pounded, breaded and consistently crisply fried, is available plain (Wiener, or Vienna-style) or under a variety of sauces and toppings. Without gravy, a squeeze of lemon is all that’s needed. The mushroomy jaegerschnitzel is unconventional — with creamy white cognac gravy instead of the more common deep brown — but quite good.

Glass Boot Biergarten

1804 McMillan Ave, Dallas / Fort Worth Park Cities

German, Bars and Clubs, Recommended

If you don’t want to head out to the suburbs to get your German fix, a newcomer to the Knox-Henderson neighborhood offers a taste of Bavaria. Glass Boot Biergarten is a place to drink beer, first and foremost. They have large mugs and boot-shaped glasses that they’ll fill with a small selection of German beers, in addition to a wide selection of the cans and bottles you’ll find at most of the party bars along Henderson Avenue. You won’t find sausages like these elsewhere, though. You can order a plump bierwurst with a finely ground and springy texture, and other German links like smaller Nürnbergers, which come in pairs, Weisswurst and Knockwurst. Or maybe you’d prefer to nibble on a smoky Polish Kolbasse or even smokier Cajun Andouille. And to prove that no sausage is left behind, a mild Italian sausage joins a number of Franken-sausages made with ingredients including chicken and cheese.

Kuby's Sausage House

6601 Snider Plaza Park Cities

214-363-2231

German, Market, Deli, Recommended, Best Of, Menu, Slideshow

While predominantly a meat market, Kuby's is as close as you can come to experiencing a stripped-down, Old World delicatessen. It also offers customers a dining experience. Among the most popular is wurst teller, a sausage plate with homemade sauerkraut, German potato salad and red cabbage. The dinner menu also includes a rotating selection of monthly specials-along with beer flights! Opened in 1961 by Karl Kuby and still a family operation, the first Kuby's shop was located in the Fatherland. And for those hunters looking to have someone else butcher and prep their elk, antelope or fish, Kuby's will process game. The Snider Plaza mainstay is a longstanding hit with the SMU crowd and Park Cities-ites.
