- Ms HeleneMarch 25, 2018Omelet with gruyere, sautéed spinach and mushrooms with roasted potatoes, crunchy toast and whipped butter $16. Good option for comfort food or when you can’t wait that long for Dudley’s
- Jen DigneyJanuary 13, 2013This place is outstanding! The cozy vibe makes it very welcoming. Loved the Eliminator cocktail and the marinated herring. They do not take reservations but you can call 20 minutes ahead
- Howard WongSeptember 5, 2013A great place to bring a date, nice ambiances, great German food and drinks. Their sausage sampler is taste great. Yes this comment is coming from a guy. Recommend their liverwurst side dish/snack
- Catherine PayantMarch 25, 2018Did someone just say “Apfelschorle”? YUM 😋 so happy I came here. Can also really recommend the Emmental sausage and the cheese Spätzle
- CarolApril 13, 2023Excellent service! Interestingly run by Spanish speakers- at night they play Latin music. Food is so delicious- the schnitzel, bratwurst, and pretzel (a bit small). Their mustard was so spicy
- 🄵🄴🄻🄸🅇 dnǝʇsɔɥOctober 6, 2018Portions are huge. If you're vegetarian try the cheese Spätzle, otherwise the Schnitzel. (Austrians / Germans eat more than just sausages!)
- Andres NovoaNovember 23, 2015The bratwurst is simple and amazing! Great place for an intimate meal. They open up the big windows when the weather is nice out!
- Karl BergerOctober 28, 2019Great food in an attractive, comfortable setting. Excellent service. The Aufschnitt Teller is easily shared by two or three and includes absolutely superb pork belly.
- MarmyMarch 1, 2018Deutche pub/bar/restaurant, where you can get beer in same size as in October fest in Deutcheland. And apple strudel is 🔝
- You cannot go wrong with their schnitzel or any of their sausage platters. Make sure to have some spätzle while you're at it!
- Tim CernigliaJanuary 12, 2016Great & friendly service of delish Austrian comfort fare. I enjoy the Schnitzel and Austrian Lager here, in a neighborhood steeped in German history.
- Ernesto GutierrezJune 7, 2019The liverwurst patte appetizer is a must. The Reuben easily feeds 3 or 4 people, huge and heavy dish.
- AlyssaApril 17, 2013Consistently the best and most lovingly prepared food, best ambiance-- best everything-- in the neighborhood or probably in downtown Manhattan entirely
- Shanna NevelzMarch 12, 2017Big beers and always fun times. Don't miss the blintz for brunch, with a side of mini-brats.
- Nicole FormicaFebruary 2, 2018The beef goulash was really tasty! Big chunks of tender beef and spatzel slathered with a rich, meat sauce.
- Caroline GNovember 21, 2012The service, the food, you really can't go wrong. The spaetzle and pretty much any sausage on the menu are ridiculously amazing. If its your birthday, prepare for something special...
- Jesse TingDecember 19, 2015No worries, their brunch wouldn't disappoint you. Their french toast is amazingly crispy outside and so soft inside.
- Intimate space with happy staff. Love the red cabbage salad, meatballs, and can happy eat the sausage platter for two all by myself. Don't miss White Asparagus season.
- HolidayOctober 11, 2015Probably everything. Had elderflower lemonade and kale salad with schnitzel will be back for more!
- ºDamian White ºFebruary 19, 2012The staff were very friendly. But the authentic Austrian food takes reign in this cute little Austria in the Lower East Side! A MUST! It's become our favorite! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
- The Corcoran GroupJuly 19, 2013If you're a liverwurst fan, definitely come here. Pair it with a pretzel or the sausage sampler, and you'll leave happy and full.
- Pineapple FroyoApril 12, 2019Recommend the sausage sampler! All the sausages were tasty! Liverwurst appetizer was great too.
- Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014The sausage plate for two is always a good bet, a plate piled high with sausages, pork belly and delightfully tangy quark dumplings. Read more
- Jenna Odett LaskinJanuary 31, 2012excellent austrian food and charming service - ruben sandwich is for 2 people, loved the spatzle, sausage sampler, pickle platter
- Max KesslerAugust 21, 2014Good stuff here. Shnitz plate is pretty bonerrific. The cranberry sauce is drinkable. Wouldn't recommend the brat platter - kind of sloppy and boring. Beer selection is on point, solid pricing too.
- Asia LindsayNovember 29, 2014Schnapps is my new favorite drink apparently. The food was great too- HUGE portions!
- Meatballs and schnitzel!!! Also get the white asparagus if they're in season
- DoubleDeuceJune 3, 2015Where else are you going to get Austrian food that isn't just schnitzel? Nowhere, I say; this is where you want to eat!
- Isabel ZapataFebruary 15, 2014Best schnitzel in New York! (Also, don't miss the Kartoffel and cucumber salad, the pretzel, and the Spätzle.)
- KatMarch 10, 2013Delicious food - cheese spaetzle is to die for, great beers, and super friendly staff make Cafe Katja a neighborhood gem.
- Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014A big bowl of soft buttery spatzle is dotted with snow peas and shiitake mushrooms while the seared salmon is unbelievably smoky Read more
- New York HabitatOctober 25, 2011Authentic Austrian food in the Lower East Side, get the sausage sampler, cheese Spätzle, and one of the Austrian beers on tap.
- Nina YiamsamathaMarch 22, 2012Amazingly friendly staff and delicious Austrian food (I daydream about it). Get the meatballs and wash them down with some bier.
- ºDamian White ºFebruary 19, 2012The staff were very friendly. But the authentic German food takes reign in this cute little Deutschland in the Lower East Side! A MUST! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
- Donna ChanJanuary 28, 2013Perfect for a casual brunch to catch up with friends. Yummy spatzle, cute decor, and the nicest service ever!
- The pretzel and spreads, Australian meatballs and smoke salmon with white asparagus is off the chart!!
- Sarah C. WeissFebruary 5, 2010Fantastic Austrian food! Start off with their warm pretzel that comes with delicious cheese and mustard. FYI, it's a small restaurant that doesn't take reservations. Great prices and amazing food!
- Katherine ChiuAugust 22, 20141/2 liter of grapefruit beer? So good. Order the Schofferhofer if you like fruity beers!
