For our first time, we had the brie appetizer to start. Wowzers! An entire brie wheel, covered in almonds with beautifully soft marbled bread. It would easily satisfy a party of four. I had an excellent rouladen (exactly like my German grandmother made!!) Delicious!! and hubby had a tasty chicken Rahm Schnitzel (creamy mushroom sauce with chicken) which was devine. Our server was wonderful, friendly and so helpful. Great German ambiance. Small authentic German restaurant. Come hungry, come ready for an awesome treat.

It is very rustic which made it feel super authentic It is owned by a family husband and wife. I wish I asked for her name all smiles she greeted us and I decided to get the 3 meat combo which I picked the cordon bleu, the chicken schnitzel and the pork schnitzel and I still added the wurst curry. For the sides I got the sauerkraut and the potato salad. My friend got the chicken schnitzel with the cabbage and French fries Let me start by saying it is CHEAP!! My plate is $21.50! It is huuuge! Me the one who can eat a lot! I couldn't even tackle half of it! It definitely can feed easily 2 hungry people! Everything tasted amazing! The cordon bleu though is next next level! I so wish it is closer to me I would just go have lunch there every single Saturday! Also it is true when service is friendly the whole experience becomes better! This lady is pure joy... she is always laughing! After the meal we were outside and she came out playing a bit with her son. It was so sweet to watch! Now this place is on my list of taking visitors... friends... whoever gets in my car going towards this area for a day trip!

Chicken and Pork schnitzel was devoured served with brown gravy on the side. Bratwursts galore. The best thing we had was the sausage curry!!!! Must order! Wish they had spatzle, but their cucumber salad and homemade sauerkraut was good.. Had Apple & Cherry strudel. We brought our dogs, but it isn't a great place for animals as the land over the bridge was full of sticker burrs and it's close to the busy road. Overall, Prost to a Hill Country find. We were able to BYOB.

This food truck is so simple and unassuming, you may actually miss it. As a complement to Live Oak's German style beers, The Black Forest food is a perfect pairing for German beer. The menu focuses on classic German food. Menu favorites include Schnitzel sandwiches, bratwurst, fresh baked pretzels, house made potato salad and homemade mustard and pickled vegetables. In addition, small chips and cookies are sold for $2. We shared the pretzel...OMG, it was mutant large...enough for three people. The pretzel came with queso and stone-ground mustard (preferred the mustard). The pretzel was firm and flavorful on the outside and soft inside...ideal combination. Neil, the owner, was so super nice and shared some history regarding the brewery. He also has had a daily special. The food truck is located at Live Oak Brewing, making for an ideal German beer and food pairing experience.

I had a Tipsy Blond (named for the Brewery's cat who I saw peeking out the window!) The beer was good and flavorful. I especially like that the menu includes the IBU value for each beer as I prefer beers with little bitterness. After I ordered beer, I flipped the menu over to discover many more cocktail and wine options! We had Rueben's, turkey burger or the regular burger and we all enjoyed the food. My tots were sprinkled with a peppery seasoning that gave them a bit of kick and they were very crispy. I'd suggest them over the fries which were not as crisp. The outdoor seating was cooled by a nice breeze. There is a small indoor bar. The main entrance is on the side street but is also accessible from Castell Ave. I can see enjoying another evening here!

When we…read morearrived, they were hosting a ticketed event and the outdoor area was very busy, with the parking lot full. Fortunately, we were still able to get a table in the café without any issue. I'm giving 4 stars mainly due to the service. Our server seemed quite disinterested, and when we asked about the drink menu, it wasn't clear whether he was unfamiliar with it or simply not inclined to go through it with us. Either way, the experience in that area wasn't great. We ordered the Rueben fries, and Texas schnitzel and both were amazing, the food came out fresh and hot and we had zero complaints. The gravy with the schnitzel was so flavorful and the green beans were cooked to perfection. For dessert we ordered the hummingbird cake and wasnt let down by our choice. With better service this would have been a 5 star review for sure.

We found out the food truck would be at Windmill Farms Winery, east of Bucee's in New Braunfels. My wife could not wait for them to pull up and start serving. After talking with Brent, I learned he was in the Army and spent a lot of years in Germany. The menu had a lot of variations on schnitzel. We decided to get the Jagerschnitzel with Hunter Mushroom Sauce. It was so good. Breading was thin and the meat was tender and flavorful. The plates are quite affordable and come with two sides. We chose the red cabbage and cucumber salad. The cabbage was a little sweet and had a nice flavor. The cucumbers were thinly sliced and fresh. We also had the warm pretzel with cheese sauce. The outside of the pretzel had a good pretzel flavor and inside was warm and fluffy. The cheese sauce was so good I wished for a tub it it with a spoon. You need to track them down and give them a try. They have a page on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/schnitzelit/

My only complaint was the set up when you walked into the event- I needed to give out bracelets at the entrance to my guests, which was where the bar was and then our buffet line.

The place was pretty busy for a Monday night, but the food was hot and the servers we had were right on top of drink orders.
