Food was meh. Beer was good. Went during happy hour it was quiet and nice. Service was ok. Will go back for the beer

Minus one star as the restaurant name is not clearly documented on the building. Google maps kept taking us around and if you know downtown and Central Expressway it's a long drive to next exit. The restaurant is located in the Greek Restaurant. However, once you find this spot, the food is good. I had schnitzel and it was delicious. Also had a good German ale. My friend's gyro was excellent. We both agreed to come back again and I plan to bring my coworkers for lunch. read more

Das Bierhauz has excellent German cuisine! I have been here multiple times now, and I definitely plan on coming back! They have some of the best German food in the Bay Area I've had, especially the Schnitzel and Spaetzle! Those are our favorites and I get them every time, and they never disappoint! The mushroom sauce on the Jaeger Schnitzel is also incredible, and I'd encourage anyone to give it a try! The whole area is a great area to walk around and hang out, and Das Bierhauz hangs on the side with a nice open seating area to relax in. The staff was friendly and seating was plentiful, with the option to pick wherever you want to sit. Overall the food is yummy, the location is great, and I would recommend this place to everyone! read more

A group of us came around 6 PM on a Tuesday. Plenty of seats (indoor and outdoor). Most of the customers sat outside because it was a warmer brighter day. The staff was friendly and the food came out quickly. They had a casual to lively ambiance when we were there because a soccer game was on. I ordered a Das Burger and my wife ordered the Beef Bratwurst. The Das Burger is filled with beef patty, turkey bacon, lettuce, tomato, cheese, and pickles in between a brioche bun. The beef bratwurst consists of beef sausage, garnished onion, mustard, and pickles. Both are served with fries and sauerkraut. Their fries are really good. Hot and crispy. Next time we'll try their beers! read more

I had a pretty disappointing experience, a friend got me a gift card online for Das Bierhauz, so me, my wife and daughter came here for dinner. I ordered our food and when I tried to use the gift card to pay it kept getting denied, come to find out the gift card is for their Redwood City location, which is affiliated but they don't accept the same types of payment I guess. That seems like a major flaw in their system and should be made clear when gift cards are purchased. The food was ok pub food but in my opinion not worth the money. A kids cheeseburger is $16. Which is $1 less than a regular cheeseburger. Most expensive child's burger I've come across. Unfortunately now I'm stuck with a gift card to their Redwood City location, hopefully they accept it and I'm not grifted out of another $90 read more

One of my favorite spots on Castro Street. They have really ample outdoor seating options that are shaded by large luscious trees -- and great for large groups. You can expect: friendly staff (who give awesome suggestions), solid shareable dishes, and a prime location to start a German beer crawl in Downtown Mountain View. You have to take a sip every time the CalTrain goes by! Prost! read more

Das Bierhauz is run by the same owners as Olympus Cafe, so they also share a menu with them. I got the jaeger shnitzel plate, which is a classic for German food. I ordered at the counter and then found a seat at their patio. The patio area is nice and shaded, so I definitely recommend sitting there on a nice day. I enjoyed the jaegerschnitzel, although I did wish that there was some sauerkraut to cut the heaviness. Since they share a menu with Olympus, I also got an Olympus omelette, which hit the spot. I managed to finish most of the omelette and as a meat lover, I really enjoyed both dishes. Would love to return to try their other dishes! read more

Came with a group of ~25 on a reservation, and they handled the volume fairly well. There were certain cases where some people at one of the three tables got food significantly faster than others (like an hour difference), but appetizers and drinks came fast. One drink order was forgotten but the server was super nice when reminded. The drinks range in alc % which gives a lot of options, and the menu is split into german food and mediterranean food. I got the döner kebab plate and the meat was very tender. The grapefruit beer is really yummy - especially for a beer, but it is.. pretty much juice at 2.2%. They have non-alcoholic beer too! I thought that was cool. read more

Absolutely excellent! I really enjoyed my experience here!!! Great food, great service and environment!

Seriously amazing food, order first then find a spot they bring you the food, serve is good, warning it's loud because of the train but hey

This restaurant is part of Olympus Caffe & Bakery, and has indoor and outdoor seating. I had the Gourmet Schnitzel, which is made with breaded eggplant; I wanted to try it since I had never seen it before. My husband had the Jaeger Schnitzel, which is, unfortunately, made with veal. (I would have tried to talk him out of it if I had realized before.) Both dishes came with a cheezy spaetzle and Lingenberry jam. He liked his meal. Mine was okay, but I think I would have liked the Chicken Schnitzel better. The jam is tasty, but does not go with either the creamy mushroom sauce or the cheezy spaetzle in my opinion. We got a slice of Pistachio cake to take home. Unfortunately, the cake sort of melted in the car; however, it still tasted great! The food is good quality and the employees friendly, so I would come again. read more

I am giving this three stars because I think it was not well thought out for a group of 34 persons, mainly seniors who aren't that mobile. Our group was seated outside on a wood chip ground which made it difficult for wheelchairs and cane users. Besides that, we were given wood benches to sit on which made it even harder to get into your seat - four to a wooden bench sharing one table with another bench of four persons. We had to be careful when getting into and out of our seats because the benches would tip as well as the tables tipping onto you. You can imagine - bunched up seniors trying not to tip over and holding onto our plates/cups when one person moves. There really wasn't room except to sit because they stored all the outdoor heating lamps and extra chairs in that area. I have no idea what their logic was because there were ample outdoor seating on the concrete floor with tables that had induvial chairs with arms. It would have been the same size as to where we were sitting. It was Sunday and the restaurant wasn't crowed. If it wasn't for the food, it would probable be one star. The chicken schnitzel and spaetzle were excellent. Portions were ample; schnitzel crispy on the outside and tender on the inside; accompanied by fresh cranberries; speaetzle could have used more seasoning; mushroom gravy added more flavor and the squeezed lemon slices from the ice tea gave the meal a zest. Yummy delicious. Burger and fries were disappointing. the burger was just the patty and bun - no lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, etc. It was rather dry. Beef bratwurst, fries and sauerkraut - I would like to have the fries a little browner and crisper. Bratwurst and sauerkraut were okay. Pretzels and Cheese Appetizer - pretzels were not the best and the cheese looked like it was store bought. The pretzel tasted better with a combo of the mustard and cheese. The Greek pastries looked appealing and inviting. I could not decide on what to get, so I got one of each. The savory ones I never had before so I cannot compare. Would I purchase it again - no. It was not to my liking. The sweet ones I was familiar with. It could have been much crispier. I prefer the walnut over the pistachio. The walnut had more flavor. It was not soggy so that's a sign that it wasn't sitting that long. I was told they make their own Greek pastries, that's why I bought one each. I am a fan of baklava. If I am in that area again, I definitely would return for the chicken schnitzel and spaetzle. read more

Loved the vibes and the abundance of outdoor seating. Great place if you're looking for a spot for large gatherings/hangouts! Here's what we got: Chicken Schnitzel Plate (4.75/5): the mac and cheese was mid-- reminded me of Kraft mac and cheese-- but the star of the was the chicken schnitzel and the mushroom sauce! Love how saucy it was and the chicken was perfectly fried. If you're a chicken katsu fan, you're going to love this dish! The lemon and lingonberry sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and sour if you choose to add it onto your dish. Wurst Platter (4/5): was an interesting experience tasting three different types of sausages with varying tastes and textures. All were juicy but nothing really stood out. I've never had sauerkraut before and it was surprisingly sour. This seems pretty authentic but only get it if you enjoy sour food. read more

The food at this place is phenomenal - they have amazing German food & Mediterranean food. The sausages & the sauerkraut are amazingly fresh, the gyro is great, and they even have a pasta that is so fresh. The service is great, you can order on your phone or you can go instead and order, and the food will be brought to you. The ambiance is fantastic! There's plenty of seating inside & outside but outside feels like you are eating at a garden / brewery. It's so cozy and cute! Some people even play some board games while they eat, super cute / casual place in downtown Mountain View. read more

Lots of seating, next to the cal train. Theres heater lamps. The cuisine of this place is interesting. Theres german, mediterranean, and fettuccine Alfredo ? Interesting indeed haha I got the Chicken Schnitzel Plate and it was alright. Reminded me of chicken katsu. I wasnt sure how to eat the jam, on its own or on the noodles or the chicken? The happy hour prices are pretty good, u can get a half liter of beer for $5 before tax, or a 1 liter for $10 before tax, which comes out to be 4.23 cups. My friends only got one beer and were feeling great at the end of it Note that happy hour does end early. Its from 3pm-5:30pm read more

Nice place with 3 restaurants-in-one. The ambiance is nice and they have both indoor and outdoor seating, but on nice days, the draw is to eat outside. The service is ok. Food was pretty good. We went with the German food. We got the Wurst Platter - veal bratwurst, beef bratwurst, beef knockwurst, sauerkraut, garnished onions, dusseldorf mustard, sweet bavarian mustard, roll bread. This was a good sampler plate to try different sausages. This was good. Pretzel with melted cheese (additional charge). Served warm with soft inside and toasted outside. This was one of the best pretzels we have had!!! read more

We hit this place for lunch since it was close to our hotel. Based on the look I was not expecting much but the Chicken Schnitzel was great.

Came here after a coffee date. Been awhile since I've had a nice German weiner. The girl at the counter was nice and was easy to talk to. You order up front and get your number to bring to your table. I got the wurst platter and a Hefeweizen. The wurst platter and with 3 different dogs. They were all season pretty well and unique to themselves. I couldn't remember which was which but I definitely like them a lot. The mustard that came with the platter really elevated the taste of the bratwursts. Very chill place to grab a nice beer. Prost! read more

tried the classic bratwurst and it was incredibly juicy with a perfect snap on the outside.

Food came out fast and was really good. We got the speatzle (chicken and vegetarian version with eggplant). The noodles were perfectly cooked and wonderfully cheesy. The berry jam on the side was delicious and tart- a nice palate cleanser. The fried eggplant was soooo good. I heartily recommend for any vegetarian. However it was a little oily. For two plates our total came to about $50 but it was a lot of food and I left stuffed. The place was pretty empty on a Sunday night but that only meant our food came out very fast. read more

Went for happy hour on a thursday evening. Their happy our is a pretty good deal - I got a liter of strong cider for about $11 before tax/tip. I wasn't a fan of the 50s era old timey rock and roll they were playing. Service was very friendly. read more

This is a German/Mediterranean eatery with a nice outside patio. Hard to figure out what they are going for. Seems like it was called Olympus and Bierhaus. Really not sure , but both Styles of food on the menu. Loved the German beers on the menu. Cannot speak for the food, outside of ordering a pretzel with cheese sauce. It took over 20 minutes for a soft pretzel! The cheese sauce was awful of the cheap mix variety. So, will have to give them another try, but wait times looked long. It wasn't that crowded either. How long does it take to heat a pretzel? One nice feature is you order at counter and get the beer right away. Also, they have a nice happy hour from 3 pm to 5:30 pm m-f. Will have to try it again as I like the outside atmosphere. read more

We went past the place first time, because the sign, said OLYMPUS. Got sort of lost, drove back to the same area, and were told by some workers, that was indeed, Das Bierhauz, Mountain View. Parking is easy, large lot. We were greeted by a friendly couple. There was menus right where we walked in, so picking up a couple, went to sit inside. Nothing German on this menu and we decided to leave. Then saw a sign above the counter, with various German dishes. YAY! That was the last yay. My dish was deep fried burnt, her Ladyships was, well not sure what that was, but she was definitely not pleased (I was lucky my head was not removed ... she does have a bit of a temper...) and to top it all off. There was a PITbull who decided to come and lay her rather large head on my lap. OK. ? I presented it (couldn't see the, you know gender stuff) with a limp French fry and we were friends for life. Of course it wanted more, but then out of no where the owner appeared and told me to stop feeding his dog French fries. Okay, fine but could you remove the dog from my lap. Dog was not cooperative, so we packed up and left. Probably won't return ... read more

I ordered two burgers and a bratwurst for $60. We picked up the order before the scheduled time, and brought the food home immediately. The fries were cold and tasted horrible. We tasted one of the burgers and took a bite of the bratwurst. Both were edible, but not very good, to the point where we didn't want to eat any more. I called the restaurant to tell them we were unhappy with the food and asked if they would refund it. They told me I had to bring the food back. I said I didn't want to bring it back if they weren't going to give me a refund, I would just throw it away, I didn't want to waste more of my time. They told me to bring it back. So I brought it back, the owner took the food into the back, and told me the food was fine and he wasn't going to refund me. He didn't give me the food back, and didn't give me my money back, either. So I paid $60 for two bites. I don't recommend the burgers, and the owner wasted my time. I wish he would have just told me on the phone he wouldn't refund me, I would have understood. read more

Ambience: Very spacious, spacious seating with indoor seating as well. Very relaxed, chill vibes. Service: Mostly do it yourself. Food: Food was alright. Might be too overpriced for what you get. Nothing really unique to these plates -- standard American food. read more

We went on a very busy day, during the German Christmas Market. The food and service were very good. We look forward to going back soon.

There are some fusions of different foods and cultures that you really question and wonder if they will work. For Das Bierhauz, the combo of German beers and Mediterranean foods(Turkish desserts and Pastries) it really works! I'm a person who loves to drink. I found a place that has a giant boot of beer! You had me by the liter! No one should drink on an empty stomach, so if you're a fan of pretzels. Chicken souvlaki or gyro plate either lamb or beef. You have found your happy place. They have different bratwurst from beef to veal. And different specialized coffees from espressos, macchiatos, to dirty Chai lattes. From you see from our pictures you will find some delicious foods that we were able to dine on. But I am curious about the different desserts. They have that I was just too full to not try... Carrot cake looked amazing as well as in napoleon type pastry . It looks like it had some powdered sugar. And the place has everything you could want in a European German Mediterranean way. They also have a happy hour. Miss staffier was quite friendly. They have great seating for indoor and out. If you're a type of person, that has trouble making up your mind. No, definitely find something here that you would like. And if you're a homesick student who misses out on European or mediterranean culture. This may warm your heart as it did my stomach. I will be back! It's definitely a place where I would bring visitors or people from out of town! read more

There are so many ways to review a place and I try not to be negative but this place has issues. I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO MY GUT. #1 - this is a Greek restaurant and a German restaurant. Two separate menus, but no differentiation. Different names for each. RED FLAG #2 - they do have traditional German dishes, but the deserts looked questionable. Black Forest chocolate cake looked like it had jam smeared on top. Red flag #3 - no one eating at 230pm - let's call this a pink flag, not quiet red After a long day in customer meetings my team of three we're looking for a place to eat. We were rotating who's choice it was and mine came up. Being of German descent, I have a lot of traditional foods that I love and I know that there's general foods that just about anyone can enjoy . I was very wrong about this place. I had the curry wurst with fries, my coworkers had a green salad which they thought would have Taziki. The sausage was completely flavorless and anemic. The solid was unappetizing. The fries were cooked well but was flavorless. To try and redeem the experience, I ordered a profiterole and slices of baklava, along with a pistachio cake. The stand-up star of this was the cake, I would come back just for that but only that. The amount of chocolate syrup just poured on top of the profiterole was trying to mask the fact that it was store-bought cream puffs. Pistachio baklava was indistinguishable from standard baklava. It was fine, but not worth having. My coworker asked for a sour cider, and the person taking our order offered up some thing that was nauseatingly sweet. One out of five experience , beautiful California weather aside the location is also right off train tracks and I felt like every five minutes. There was a loud train going by. Would not recommend read more

stopped by here on a friday night around 6pm for some drinks and dinner. this place has a small indoor part and a huge patio section spilling out onto the corner of castro street. the inside was empty but outside was mostly all full at this time. i recommend grabbing a table and then going up to order at the counter. this place is two restaurants in one--biergarden and olympus café. the german side has classic like sausages and pretzels while the greek side has gyros and pitas. there's about 20 different beers on tap as well. we got the lager in a boot and the cider which were both solid. the selection is somewhat limited but overall will have something for everyone. for food we had the gyro wrap and jagerschnitzel. the cutlet was very crispy with creamy mushroom sauce and came with cheesy spatzel. the veal itself was a little tough but still tasty. the gyro wrap was ok but nothing to write home about. i couldn't help but compare this place to ludwigs biergarten down the street: ludwig's may have tastier food and greater selection on tap but this place is about 20-30% cheaper! so pick your poison. overall had a great time and will come back to try out their happy hour deals read more
