I got a ginger beer that was one of the best I've had. Super friendly service and I was skeptical with German food but well worth the visit! read more

Great little restaurant on Central Avenue. Very authentic Schnitzel -- tasty! We will be back soon!

Awesome food! Great service and family friendly. Highly recommended for families in the area

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a small indoor and an outdoor space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu is limited. But the food is tasty. I enjoyed the spaetzle though I believe the gravy would be better with a touch of sour cream. As it it was a one-note flavor. But still a good little bowl Of comfort food. The sausage, potato salad and sauerkraut were tasty. Enjoyed the side salad which was well dressed and beautifully presented. The service was kind and prompt. I would return when I'm craving comfort food. read more

The owner of this restaurant is so nice. We loved the food, my sister-in-law is Vegan and they had a Vegan sausage in curry sauce.

Authentic and lovely food in this quirky and playful place make sure you specify which type of sausage you want since they have different kinds. The food here is very good. The fries are outstanding. I think I could go for the fries every day. Don't skip out on their cake or their deep-fried bread beignets. They had a beer there that was orange flavored I didn't catch the name, but it was quite delicious and refreshing on a hot day. read more

Delicious authentic German food. This helped satisfy my cravings for weisswurst. They offer two sizes of platters, small comes with one sausage and two sides and large is two sausages and two sides. I ordered traditional potato salad and sauerkraut. The service was quick and the owner was extremely helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor was casual like a small beer hall.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My only regret was not ordering the large platter. The weisswurst was very well seasoned and had a nice snap. The sauerkraut wasn't too tart. read more

Incredible hospitality, even better fries. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Will be going back amazing environment[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Love this place

We let Yelp pick this place for us. I honestly had no idea it existed, but I'm glad i know it does, now! We drove from Tarpon Springs to St. Pete, and got Princess Parking right in front of the eatery. As the weather was beautiful, we opted to sit outside, and the waiter was wonderful, he made sure to get our drinks, i got a can of coke and my friend got a dark german beer. Both were good. We ordered off the menu, i ordered the Vienna Schnitzel, pork with their Best of the Bay fries my friend got 2 different kinds of sausage, some fries and sauerkraut. The food didnt take long to cook and was delivered piping hot. The fries? They live up to the best of the bay. They are delicious and crispy with a hint of garlic. Absolutely amazing. My schnitzel was a huge serving and I ended up taking 1/2 home. My Friends platter was large, the sausages were served with a good ground mustard, and we got curry sauce, which turned out to be delightful! This place is a hit! When in St.Pete, I'd find this place again. My belly was very happy! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a comfortable afternoon so the front patio was nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was courteous and prompt. They have a selection of German beers. The menu is quite small--several kinds of sausages, 3 varieties of schnitzel, and just a few salads & sides. I got the knockwurst and bratwurst with potato salad & sauerkraut--all delicious. The Vienna schnitzel was crispy and came with a lemon wedge. The French fries are the best--coated and so crispy. read more

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 beer! read more

Food and beer both top notch! Service was excellent, we went with his recommendation, which was perfect. We plan on returning and even talked about ordering Togo next time we pass through. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat outside, there were umbrellas.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I've worked (and lived) in Germany and I have to say, this place is awesome. They keep it simple and delicious. Great service and very real culinary experience. I love schnitzel and I tried the curry, the regular and the mushroom. All were great. Beers are served correctly and choice is limited but accurate to the cuisine. A nice treat awaits you if you haven't been - also, the beignet make for a nice ending to the meal or a nice late morning treat with a coffee. Make this a place you go - high percentage chance you'll meet one of the owners while you're there. read more

We were a bit disappointed in our meals here. We've grabbed a side of fries to go before during a late night out and they were sooo good, that we made a point to return for dinner. I'm pretty sure they have won awards for those lovely, seasoned fries. Schnitzel with curry tasted like a warm ketchup sauce (so no actual curry flavor) and the schnitzel Jager had a mushroom sauce that was also very mild tasting with canned mushrooms. I am so strongly against canned mushrooms (I think most people are with me on this) and have no idea why occasionally a restaurant will think its ok to put them on top of a gourmet pizza or in a sauce. I love mushrooms, but if you can't supply fresh, then just don't offer it at all. If I remember correctly, the pork schnitzel was pounded too thin and was a bit dried out, but the chicken was the thicker juicier meat. The fries as always did not disappoint. read more

For vegans looking for a place to eat with their meat eating friends this is a great place to go.

German Knodle - Vegan Mushroom Sausage, sauerkraut and fries. - Salad Near Me - St Petersburg, Florida

Searching for a place for lunch since in the area and stumbled across this gem! Over 200 reviews and ALL are 5 stars!! I just HAD to check this place out. Walked in and greeted by such a friendly woman that I believe was the owner. We picked a seat and immediately given menus and drink order taken. Not sure if they have a filtration system for their water or I was really thirsty but the water was so clean tasting! I ordered the chicken schnitzel with a side of potato salad. Hubs got the goulash and side of potato salad. I opted for my gravy on the side and the curry gravy was recommended so that's what I got. Not a fan of mushrooms (gravy options are curry gravy or mushroom gravy). Food was out quickly and so delicious!!!! The curry gravy was delicious and so glad I got this. Even the bread that came with hubs goulash was good dipped in the curry. The chicken is tender and the breading is light. Not greasy at all. Potato salad was great! Hubs goulash was nice and hearty! Great flavor. Has noodles in the bottom which we didn't even realize until after he had eaten some and then went to mix in the bowl again. I got the German pretzels to go. OMGOSH!! They are hot and buttery and sooo good. I love pretzels and these bad boys are gooddddd. Like that they don't have salt on them. You have to try these. Recommend ordering there as maybe an app since they did get a bit soggy in the to go container. But I still devoured them :)- This was like having a nice old homemade meal! Just hearty and delicious! Service was top notch and it's such a cute place! Definitely on my favs and we will be back here!! Highly recommend and obviously know why it is 5 stars. Street parking available right along the strip. read more

This place is so top notch. First it's in downtown and has such a good vibe. The server is super direct and extremely helpful, she isn't just being fake nice for a tip and I love that. But the food. The FOOD! The fries are honestly some of the best I've ever had and the sausages are so flavorful. I've been here multiple times now and it literally never has let me down. Easily one of the best restaurants in the tampa bay read more

Consistently delicious. There's no air conditioning here so if that's not your thing, opt to sit outside. They do offer to-go pick ups. I usually opt for the vegan mushroom sausages with sauerkraut and German potato salad. One of my favorite places in the Burg. Service is great every time. read more

German Knodle - Vegan Mushroom Sausage, and Spatzel - Salad Near Me - St Petersburg, Florida

Still dreaming about the German Knodle's goulash! This stew-like dish was incredibly hearty, flavorful, and served with spatzle underneath...I wish I could have it every day. The potato salad was tasty too--perfectly vinegary and filling. And if you're ordering a sausage or schnitzel plate, get ready for the best fries of your life!! They were voted Best of the Bay and absolutely lived up to the name. We enjoyed the Jaeger Schnitzel but would lean toward ordering the the Curry Schnitzel next time. We were able to try a sample of the tomato-based curry sauce it would've come with and loved it. read more

It lives up to the reviews. We weren't sure because it looks like sort of a fast food place., but the food is outstanding. It's a similar experience to being in Germany/Austria with authentic schnitzel, potato salad and German beer. Don't expect attentive service, as you wouldn't in Germany. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience lacks, but it quickly fades with the authenticity of the food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Schnitzel was 8.5/10, potato salad was 10/10, beignets were 11/10. Pretzels also dynamite... but they are sticks, not knots. read more

I cannot rave enough about this place! My go to order in the schnitzel with potato salad on the side and my God is their potato salad delicious as heck! For the schnitzel I usually get Jager but this last time I got the curry and holy wow, SO good! Oh and the black forrest cake muah, delicous! They have an amazing selection of German beer and wine too so don'delicious! Plenty of seating inside and out and the service is always top notch! You will not be disappointed! read more

Skip it, there are so many good restaurants on central avenue. Service was good, but the quality poor. Just some pre-made schnitzel and fries dumped into the fryer read more

I was in DTSP for a couple of meetings today. My friend and I were walking down Central when we decided to try this restaurant for a late lunch. We both loved it. I had the pork schnitzel with German potato salad. She had the Chicken Schnitzel salad. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Walking downtown St.Pete we came across this small German restaurant and we decided to try it, it was a great choice, the place is small with outdoor seating, the ambiance was very appealing, our waitress was great, very helpful and attentive to our needs, we ordered the schnitzel, and the Curry Wurst, both were excellent. Very happy with the service, and the food, will go back read more

This is one of those hidden gems that you may walk past over and over again without going in. STOP doing that! Inside is authentic German food! The menu is simple and I love that. My husband and his friend stop in here, but I didn't think I could eat anything because I am gluten and dairy free. I was wrong. I had the currywurst and replaced the fries with potato salad. It was excellent! Everyone in our party ordered something different and loved it. I can only think of one other German restaurant in the general area and it's not in St. Pete. Service is good and friendly! read more

We visited on Sunday afternoon at 4:30pm for a to-go order. Parking on the street was challenging due to the popularity of the Central Avenue area but I found a free spot only 1 block away. The restaurant is bright, airy and well-decorated. The bathroom in back is very clean which is appreciated. The gentleman who took my order was professional and friendly. While I was waiting only 10 minutes for our food, we chatted. I learned Lotfi came from Algeria 8 years ago. He loves St Petersburg as do my wife and I. I saw a Diet Coke can in the fridge and realized my wife would really like that. Since I'd already ordered and paid for $90 worth of food including a 15% tip, Lotfi just gave me the drink for free. Thanks Lotfi! Much appreciated. The food traveled well to our home but we ate the fries on the way. The curry wurst was very good according to my wonderful wife. We last had it in Berlin where it was invented by combining German sausage with British curry after World War 2. The potato salad is kinda bland and it's relatively cold but not ice cold. A healthy dose of black pepper helped. On the bright side, it was not swimming in bacon fat or vinegar. The Jaeger schnitzel, fried pork (or veal) with mushroom gravy is crunchy and tasty. The portion size is quite sufficient with two large pieces of meat, enough for four meals for me! We both got the pork variety as I'm not a fan of veal and how it's produced. Fries were perfectly crunchy with salt and perhaps parsley and onion powder? They were clearly just made and were very good. I hate soggy fries that most places serve but these were excellent. It was fun to have affordable and tasty German food in a casual and friendly environment. Life is good with properly crunchy fries and well made food! read more

The restaurant keeps it simple with a cozy, family-friendly vibe. They've earned the 'best fries' title, and while they're tasty, they're not radically different from others I've had. Now, the Schnitzel is where the party's at--huge portion, served with mushrooms, an absolute must-try. Our waitress was a gem, super attentive and friendly. As a delightful surprise, she treated us to a sneak peek of their homemade hot sauce at the end, and it was a divine experience . read more

Five stars! It is incredible! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place may not seem like much at first glance. It's a little hole in the wall in a great area and it was quiet when we came in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However, the food was incredible. The pretzels were great, as were the French fries we all shared- so well seasoned and crispy. I hate when French fries are bland and these are anything but. I got the chicken curry schnitzel and WOW the flavor is so good. A little spicy but nothing I (a wimp with spicy food) couldn't handle. Also not usually a huge potato salad fan and I am now a fan of theirs!! Big portions and you'll likely have leftovers. Everyone else seemed to really enjoy their meals, and everything was well prepared and even came with little German flag toothpicks on top- so fun. On top of all of that, our waiter overheard we were celebrating my sister's birthday. She lived in Germany for a while, speaks German, and we were so excited to take her here. He brought us a slice of German chocolate cake with an amazing sparkling candle on top. Thank you for helping her feel special! I would definitely come back next time we go to St. Pete! German may be unfamiliar to most people, but this place seems to have really honed in on what they're doing, and they do it well. Five stars!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]PS. One little note- I will say on the day we were there (tonight) it seemed like maybe the AC wasn't working that well? Or maybe they get a lot of heat in there, but hopefully they get that fixed. We were sweating but it was worth it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

German Knodle has been on my restaurant wishlist for a few years because of its consistently perfect yelp rating. I finally had the opportunity to visit last night and order my favorite German dish, Jager Schnitzel. I was disappointed. Even though the pork was tender and the breading was crispy, the dish lacked much flavor. The mushroom sauce was watery and tended to make the meat soggy. The side of sauerkraut was soft with a mild tanginess. Overall, the food was edible but bland. I don't see myself returning. read more
