On the positive, the serving size is generous and the flavours were nice. But.... I ordered sausage with hot dog bun but the sauerkraut was sloppy and piled into the bun which made the bun a soggy mess. I tried eating it with a knife and fork The sausages were luke warm and the chips were cold and they looked like some of them were from another meal and refried. The BBQ tasting plate for one was big enough for two. However, same cold chips and sausages. The pork cracking was a bit stale. We did try the Haus made Apple Strudel and guess what...it was steaming hot without a warning It did taste OK. The TV screens were good and there was plenty of room in the tables too.

The problem with this place is the reservation system. We booked online (which was painful) and when we arrived there was no booking on their system for us.

Located on arguably Newcastle's best eat out street, Darby Street and great to see it adding another dimension to the variety of restaurants already on offer. Tastefully Austrian with beer flags and music, but not at all in your face. We ordered 4 different beers and I absolutely loved the different glasses for each. Pretzels to start that were warm; perfectly browned and salted on the outside and soft on the inside. My friend also got the pretzel stick served with a Camembert spread. Menu wasn't too foreign with my friend opting for the schnitzel, my partner the farmers plate and pork knuckle for me. My partner didn't like the amount of fat in his meal but for better or worse I ate every last piece of fat and meat I could scavenge from the knuckle. It was amazing! Ending the night with apple schnapps that were too strong for me but friend loved them. Both of us going traditional with the apple strudel and the Viennese iced coffee for my partner. He said the coffee was very strong with my friend swooping in again to finish it off. We are a good team like that! The bill was expensive at over $200 but I feel it was worth it. Made another booking already to take my Dad for Father's Day.

Although it's quite new, the decor feels a little tired. Some furniture might have be inherited from the old restaurant (Long bench). BUT, don't let this put you off. The food was delicious. We shared our meals and the waffles with ricotta and fresh fruit was one of the best breakfasts I've ever had in Newy. It was incredible! Service was good. Friendly, useful and sweet. Maybe a bit young and nervous but I'm sure after another few months she'll be great. The dinner menu looks well priced and delicious and so we'll definitely be back. A sophisticated take on lots of pork dishes. The back courtyard would be a nice place for an afternoon German beer, it looked like they had a selection on tap. Give this place a try next time you're on Darby St.

My partner and I chanced dinner without a reservation (with our backup burger plan already established), and I thought we'd be turned away but luckily it was just the two of us. This meant being confined to the window seats and ordering at the bar rather than table service but that's a small price to pay. People sitting on the other side were tastefully blocked by a partition of greenery which still allowed a degree of privacy. The place was abuzz with conversation, laughter and music so it was loud but not annoyingly so. After a good peruse over the menu; featuring schnitzels, pork knuckle and sausages to name a few, we settled on the Haus made pretzel, Texan schnitzel for my partner and the Bavarian tasting platter for me. We both LOVE warm pretzels with butter and these certainly did not disappoint. I could eat them all day! The schnitzel was a large portion my partner ultimately couldn't finish. The platter consisting of pork belly, sausages and schnitzel is a great introduction to the menu but also tested my stomach capacity. Washing it down with 500mls of Lowenbrau didn't help but it felt necessary for an authentic experience. Menu is on the expensive side but for an occasional splurge I don't think it will hurt. I certainly intend on returning and with a second one opening closer to home it has been made that much more tempting.

When arriving you're usually ushered in with great precision by a snappy little fella in a pair of Lederhosen, no messing about, it's all business & schnitzel. Most people know what they're going to eat before they even get there & usually your eyes are bigger than your stomach. Never fear order up & there's take away boxes available! Una's has a great selection of beers, or there's a bottle shop of the road if you'd rather to BYO with a bottle of wine. I tend to try & not drink too much beer here for the fear of filling up & not having room for my Schnitz. I've tried a few of the starters, Deep Fried Camembert, a decadent delight. The Dutch Beef Croquets are a favourite shared amongst friends & topped with a little of the mustard located on the table - yum yum! The mains, well it's hard to go past the Schnitzel! I've been here with friends & watched them order other great plates, such as the Una's Beef Goulash, with Spatzle. I'd love to try it some time, however I'm always drawn to the golden schnitzel. I've had the Vienna Schnitzel, & the Chicken, my favourite dish at Una's would have to be the Chicken Jaegar Schnitzel, served with mushroom sauce, rosti & a cabbage salad on the side. It's so HUGE you wonder how you're going to get through, I must admit though I usually do. I have to admit I even had an occasion where we were pressed for time as were going to a concert & had stopped in for a bite.. My sister said we haven't got long we'd better eat quickly. I think I ate that schnitzel like I was at the world class Hot Dog eating competition at Coney Island. No sooner had I finished my meal (in record time) that the patron's on the adjacent table commented on how well & quickly I'd gotten through it. I was a little embarrassed, but proudly so, lol! ;-) go ME! If you decide to get a take away box, or open the second stomach there's always a serve of Una's Apple Strudel & Ice-cream to top it all off, why not get one share it, just to try. So pack your stretchy pants & visit Una's, the perfect place to enjoy a schnitzel with friends especially in the cold winter months.

The owner - Rudi sat down for a chat (and even shouted me a beer) since it was a quiet day. I've only been once, but definitely coming back! The meal, including pre snacks, two steins of beer and a glass of glühwein set me back $75.

Curious I decided to turn and drive into the suburban street where there are 6 shops next to each other. Besides the butcher the bakery was the only shop open.

A couple of shelves of bread and a table with various baked goods from muffins and croissants to Almond horseshoes and pastries. I love pretzels (and they make a couple of styles) and most of the ones I see at the mall are either hard and dried, out or greasy and buttery. These pretzels on the other hand were fresh and baked with just enough sea salt to give it a little bit of flavor. This also seems to be the local spot for coffee. In the back they sold a number of German goodies, which added to the authenticity of the place.
