Second visit, and they seem to be hitting their stride. Not nearly so hectic, while still heathily busy. Had the goulash this time, which was excellent and a large portion -- brought half of it home. The rest of our party also enjoyed most of their food, although one person said the bread dumplings were a bit too moist and a bit mushy. Glad they have a few more months yet before the Gem show crowds overwhelm them as they do so many places in January and February. read more

First off, if you don't have a reservation you will be waiting. Even those that had reservations were still waiting. They have inside and outside seating. Everyone is quite friendly and they have a good system in place to get people in and orders taken. They have about 10 tables inside and about 10 outside with misters. We came before they opened and the place is already packed. We ordered the Appetizer Combo, sauerkraut and Chicken Jager Schnitzel. After waiting over an hour for our order we were told everything is handmade and they are working on it. The entire bar area around us was served and finished eating. And we waited! Someone else came in and they said it would be over an hour for the food to be delivered. Another couple came in and got their order in ten minutes which was just what we ordered. The chef then came out and asked what we ordered. That being said, I would not bring young children. When the food finally came out, it was fantastic. Maybe wait for the novelty to wear off for improved food service. read more

Went there for lunch with four other guys and our expectations were disappointing. Some of the guys had bratwurst sandwiches that came out way before the the other meals....they were luke warm and the saurkraut was too salty and cold. My schnitzel sandwiche was a dry bland piece of pork that had a no flavor breading surrounding it. The hamburger was overpriced, overcooked and had a sweet taste to the meat.....My beer was good but not very cold. One of the guys had been stationed in Germany for ten years and he knows German food....he was disappointed as we all were.The pretzel bites were good just like the ones you get at Costco. read more

I had lunch here yesterday and my meal was delicious, but pricey. Eric, the bar tender was affable & helpful and I had a pint of Paulener hefeweizen for $7.50. A nice array of German beers of various styles. The waitresses, dressed in Bavarian garb, were kind & friendly. The $28 jaegersnitzel w/spatzle was tasty and ample enough to take 1/2 home. The bee sting cake for $12.99 was amazing! Had a chance to chat w/Andre, the owner. I shall return... read more

Loved this place despite the hiccups. Andre & Silke are amazing hosts. Vast beer selection & traditional handmade German food! read more

The food is good and service was great. It's on the smaller side so reservations are highly recommended. We were able to get a couple seats at the bar which made for fun conversations with our servers. It's definitely a made to order type place so go when you have plenty of time.I forgot pictures before we started eating so sorry for our half eaten food pics! We had chicken schnitzel with gravy and spatzle, and cordon blue with fries. read more

We were there on their second Sunday open. Had a 3:00 reservation and were seated promptly. They were out of several items, we were able to sample their two German Hefeweizens. Both were refreshing. Husband had the traditional brut wurst which was served with potatoes and onions. The brat was delicious as were the potatoes! I had the jagersnitzel which was also very good. A little mix up actually got us pretzels before we could order which helped. All in all we were ther an hour. Staff is getting their groove and it's great to more tasty options s on the west side ! read more

Biergarten - Jagersnitzel - Wine Bars Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I've been drooling over the Instagram page for weeks, and said I would hold off and not go opening weekend, well I couldn't resist - we stopped in right when they opened today and were the first ones in! We were seated and served right away, they only had the brat plate today, which I shared with my husband. Everything was divine!! The brats, and the gravy - wonderful flavors! I loved the red cabbage! It didn't have an overwhelming vinegar flavor! And my German beer came in a fabulous thick, heavy stein!! Our waiter was so nice, and had lived in Germany. They had a TV showing scenes from Germany, and German music playing. There's live music on the weekends! I brought a piece of beesting cake home for later. I can't wait to try it! The owner apologized for the limited menu today, we didn't care one bit, we were just so happy to taste it, and we live in the neighborhood, so we'll be back often! We're ecstatic to have this in our backyard! I'm glad to see how well received it is! read more

We made reservations to try the new Biergarten and we called to let them know that we might be a few minutes late and the associate who returned my call informed me of a two hour wait for food. Umm... what? Two hours? Yeah, no. Needless to say we will strike Biergarten from our list of restaurants to try. read more

Did not taste good, I'm sorry. Not sure what the spice that is used but it was overpowering and NOT-GOOD!!!!!!!!

Amazing authentic German cuisine with outstanding customer service. The vibe takes you back to Germany with the atmosphere being one of a kind. A true staple to the Tucson community. Wish they'd open more locations though. read more

Schnitzels we tried 3 different ones ..we were a party of 4 all Outstanding..the white cream sauce was perfect as were the sauces on others..the french fries with seasoning were a hit. The atmosphere was great with servers dressed in attire. MY BEER HIT THE SPOT !! DESSERT WAS VERY FLAVORUL, WITH BLUEBERRIES AND ICE CREAM THE PASTRY WAS PERFECT!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND...it's truly a worthwhile dining experience. read more

Amazingly delicious food! The crispy snitzel to the complex flavored saurcraut, a most memorable meal! The place is very busy but so worth the wait! read more

My daughter and I visited Biergarten in Tucson for lunch on June 20, 2026 and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. We arrived shortly after opening at approximately 11:20 a.m. and immediately encountered several issues. 1. We were seated without menus because none were available. 2. Our waiter took our order and served drinks before informing us that the kitchen was significantly backed up. 3. We were told about the delay only after ordering, and were encouraged to purchase additional appetizers because those could be prepared more quickly. 4. Our food did not arrive until 1 hour and 5 minutes after ordering. 5. At approximately 35 minutes and again at 50 minutes after ordering, we were assured our food would arrive "momentarily," which ultimately proved inaccurate. 6. The pretzel appetizer was served refrigerator cold, and we overheard another table raising the same concern. 7. Our order was delivered incorrectly, and we only realized the mistake after we had started eating. 8. When I attempted to provide feedback respectfully and factually, it felt as though my concerns were dismissed rather than heard. I understand that restaurants have busy days and staffing challenges. Long wait times can happen. However, the larger issue was the lack of transparent communication and the apparent mismatch between seating capacity and kitchen capacity. Expanding seating when the kitchen is already unable to keep up only compounds the problem. What was most disappointing was that, despite acknowledging the poor experience, no effort was made to recover the service failure through any gesture of goodwill or management intervention. My daughter did enjoy her schnitzel, but overall this experience fell well below our expectations and left us unlikely to return. read more

We just celebrated our anniversary here this afternoon. We wanted to try everything, so we did!! Biergarten (XXL Sampler) Platte with a light beer and a dark beer. Can I just say OMG!! What fabulous food! I felt like I was back in Frankfurt GE except the beer was cold!! AMAZING!! The staff couldn't have been more helpful either!! We took home a lot of left overs, a schnitzel sandwich for mom and Black Forest cake to eat with the left overs later! We'll make reservations next time, but sitting at the bar or under the misters outside isn't bad either. read more

Cheap plastic vines to mediocre food to pimple boobs....i won't be back. I don't know what was worse, having a waitress with her boobs hanging out with pimples or the dry pork chops. I don't see what the hype about this restaurant is but after seeing the yelp reviews, I wish I would have checked here first. The food was expensive and I don't appreciate the cheap vibes of the restaurant. The Catalina German restaurant has a much more authentic feel, better food and prices and pimple boobs hanging out to take your order. I won't be back. read more

The environment and ambiance alone has us wanting to come back! The service is 100% amazing the staff all had smiles and handled this weekend with grace. Everyone is so friendly. Despite having only one dish due to selling out. It was 100% some of the best brautwarts and sauerkraut. And the cake was so delicious. The beer 10/10. Can't wait until we go again for more! read more

Great German food very authentic with different German beers. Excellent just make sure you have a reservation.

This new restaurant in Tucson has been overwhelmed by the support. Since it's new - there are a few glitches, but those will be worked out. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The food is outstanding - truly a scratch kitchen. For celiacs, they have a good variety of gluten-free dishes. Tucson has needed a good German restaurant and now, there is one. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is festive. read more

Biergarten - Bratwurst plate with sauerkraut and potato salad. Jägerschnitzel with handmade Spätzle. - Wine Bars Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Huge disappointment. The beautiful menu presented online was not available on 6/13 at 6:30pm. Instead they provide you with a Menu of the Day which has extremely limited menu items. Also there were no side dishes available except for French fries (they ran out of spatzle). The schnitzel sandwich was dry and tasteless. The bun was horrible. No gravy was available to help redeem the schnitzel either. My boyfriend ordered the Curry Wurst and it definitely was the worst. He couldn't even finish it and he usually eats everything. We got a piece of German cake for desert and although it looked nice, it was super dry and burnt on the bottom. It would be extremely difficult to try this place again, but I really hope they can turn things around with the food quality because the restaurant has a nice vibe. read more

All 4 people at our table thought it was overpriced. Vinegar was the main ingredient in the sauerbraten. Two of us ordered this and couldn't even eat it. The manager was unwilling to allow us to reorder. We will never come back!! read more

Heard all the hype, waited awhile to go and even made reservations! We were greeted promptly and by a friendly hostess. Our waiter approached us almost immediately but we hadn't even looked at the menu yet. When he came back we were ready to order everything ( including our drinks). We ordered the pretzel bite app ( added the cheese, comes with mustard) two orders of chicken schnitzel and a beer, Diet Coke, water. Our waiter was friendly but seemed like he might be new. We received our water and beer and then our mains. I had to ask for my Diet Coke even though we already had our meal. The appetizer came last. Service leaves a lot to be desired. Another waitress offered me a refill on my drink once it was gone. I noticed the table next to us also received their mains before their appetizer as well. Food was mediocre. Nothing special. The pretzels didn't taste handmade. We were very underwhelmed. Prices are really high for quality/taste. The highlight of the meal was my husband's beer. I probably wouldn't return. We were super excited about this place. Hopefully the owner will use the feedback to improve. read more

Having gone to Germany for School and University, I can assure you that ALL food is authentic! Great Presentation, Made from Scratch, Superior Quality (Bio Pork for delicious Schnitzel), Amazing Crew & Owners, TUCSON's first in-town German Restaurant in the 19 years I lived here. Warning, this restaurant has been hot, hot, hot, since it's opening. And as they don't use frozen outside products, at some time they may run out of this or that. But what they do not run out of is their dedication to the Real, Authentic, German Food ... and that is what really counts in my book. Try them out ... Biergarten Tucson will not disappoint the Connoisseur of German Food and 'Bier' ... read more

We came second opening day. We've waited months and expected some hiccups. However, we were seated within 5 mins of our reservation time. Drink orders were taken immediately and served quick for beers, kids soda and appetizer. We ordered XXL sampler platter with a kids schnitzel meal. The food came out fresh and hot in 30-40 mins which we expected. The atmosphere is appealing and welcoming. A Tucson gem that's been needed for years. We hope they continue to grow and stay alive, as we would hate to lose this treasure. Amazing food. Kid menu friendly. Go check them out read more

Service was excellent, everyone was friendly. Food was good but not for the price, beer was excellent. Fun to try once but unless they drop those prices there's more places to try read more

The food is delicious! Definitely tastes homemade. We got the XXL sampler plate so we could try a variety of items and everything was good. Beers are huge. The restaurant is very popular and crowded. It is recommended to call ahead for a reservation. We were lucky to get a table outside but it was quite hot. Will be back and will make a reservation next time. read more

Fun, authentic food and environment. Don't be in a rush (like an American) and go along for the experience.

Great food! It's a bit pricy but I am happy to support a family owned restaurant. Especially when the food is made from scratch. The staff is great and love the atmosphere. It's been packed since day 1 and for good reason read more

If you like German food and beer and great service you must go there. I grew up with German and Polish grand parents and this brings back good memories. I will we back Often. read more

The atmosphere was that they added some German touches, but without a lot of imagination. I may be spoiled due to other fun German resturants I have been to, with a full Octoberfest theme. It was very noisy due to the cement floors and hard finishes mostly. The prices were very high. The food was fine, not so wunderbar that I would hurry back. We had a lovely server. read more

Just fabulous! We reserved a lunch spot on their website for a Saturday. It was clear the host was a little beside themselves, but they were so kind and seated us promptly upon arrival. Our server immediately saw us, complimented our outfits, and took our drink order. Someone from behind the bar delivered the beers while we were ordering and the server introduced the person as the owner. They were also incredibly kind and welcoming. Food. The bretzel came out quickly. The mustard and cheese sauce were very tasty. We ordered two schnitzels, side of cucumber salad and blaukraut. Took a littttttle bit longer, but the restaurant was PACKED and all staff working their tails off. Drink refills and check came quickly, but we never felt rushed. We have been waiting for a German restaurant in Tucson for YEARS and this did not disappoint. We will absolutely be back. Thank you, Biergarten! read more

Ate here last week of August. Had a brat sandwich and a tall pilsner with a side of greenish potato salad. Friend had spretsal with a little chunk of pot roast and a sprite. 86.00 very attentive and friendly albeit tired staff and the food was Very Bland! read more

From the moment our group of six walked through the door I started smiling and was still smiling when we left. The ambience was authentic German Biergarten, the staff was warm friendly and vundebar, and the food was delicious!!! We tried beer, wine, mixed drinks, food platters with the most yummy sauerkraut, pretzel with mustard, and ALL the desserts which were so, so fantastic. All six of us were extremely impressed and will be making this a "go to" often for fun and food. Can hardly wait for October!!! Go, you won't regret it!!! read more

Amazing family friendly yummy food great ambience yummy wow ! Gotta come if you love German food and spirit! Come to Germany without spending the plane ticket , and time! Even painted cobbler streets with stores that make you feel you're eating in a outdoor restaurant patio! Come to experience the real German vibes!! read more

Great food, a warm and welcoming hostess, beautiful servers, and a cool bartender. What more could you ask for? It's truly refreshing to discover such a distinctive experience right here in Tucson. read more

It saddens me to need to leave this review. As a German native and someone who has worked in the service industry for 10+ years I was very excited to see German food properly represented in our city of gastronomy. Unfortunately my experience dining here today left me greatly disappointed. I ordered the pretzel bites to start followed by a beer- bratwurst sandwich, my father got the schnitzel sandwich and we shared a side of fries. Our appetizer never came out so when they brought our meals I reminded them that I had ordered pretzel bites. When we are almost done with our meal we are presented with a full pretzel. This is not what I had ordered nor what I wanted. Upon over hearing me tell the food runner this our server became very combative, took the pretzel from her and walked it to us insisting we had order it. This was especially frustrating because she had forgotten our appetizer in the first place. Unfortunately I don't have much good to say about the food itself either. The quality and price do not align. The bun for the schnitzel was very stale and the $9 side of fries was a fistful at best. The presentation for the food was also very sad, the sandwiches came on large empty plates. In total we paid $50 for 2 very small sandwiches, a tiny side of fries, and an iced tea, plus a $10 tip. I'm embarrassed that I had encouraged people to come give this place a try before I had a chance to go myself. I do hope they can improve but it will be a while before I return. read more

I was really expecting some good German food and all I heard that this was the place to try. All I can say id HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED. The food was eatable but not what I expected the frosting were still frozen (now the did make it right very quickly) but still frozen come on. The beer was good and the floor staff were very helpfull. In closing find someplace else not worth it. read more

Went there last night and it was so noisy we couldn't be heard by the person next to us. I ordered an appetizer and entree and both served were not what I ordered. The orders for the five of us were served one or two at a time with several minutes betweednThree of us thought the food was inedible. All five of us agreed we would not go back. read more

Food is delicious and house made, down to the bratwursts. It reminds me of my Oma's cooking back home in Germany. The service is familial, friendly and fantastic! The ambiance is a special Biergarten vibe, complete with German chants and toasts! read more
