Steinkeller - Schnitzel - German Near Me - Oxford, Ohio

This is a very German restaurant. It's in a basement of a building. The food was very good, even though the atmosphere is in the basement with no windows. Perfect place to go to if the weather is bad but would've been nice to be in a beer garden on a warm day. read more

We had such a great dinner here on a Wednesday evening! After being on campus all day, being seated instantly when we walked in was very nice, even though the restaurant was pretty busy. All of us had one of their German beers, a dunkel and two Kölsch's, which were obviously great. For appetizers we ordered the pretzel and potato pancakes. Both were amazing!! I could come back and just make a meal out of either of these options. For a main, I got the wurst platter. I wish my server would've known more about the different types of sausage I could choose from. Even as someone who has lived in Germany, I didn't recognize the names and when I asked more about them, my server simply shrugged and said they were "sausages." this was a little off-putting but didn't ruin my meal. I tried a mett and the bierwurst and ended up really liking the mett. The potato salad on that plate was also very good, and the red cabbage and sauerkraut are great if you're looking for something super Bavarian. Overall we ate ourselves full that evening and would definitely come back next time we're in the area! read more

Schnitzel and Spaetzle were delicious. I wish my egg was cooked a little longer. Beer was great! Service was great! I was not impressed with the pretzel that came with the Platter. Seems like a frozen pretzel. Surprised it wasn't a better quality pretzel like a mini version of the pretzel appetizer. read more

Can only give 5 stars but it is a 10 stars restaurant Went to a little town, Oxford, Ohio, for a restaurant that was recommended, Steinkellar. And just like the name says (Kolkata), it was in the basement. It was worth it! A clean nicely decorated German style restaurant! The prices are well worth the food that you get. The young waiter was very helpful and took very good care of us. Please note: some of tge people working here are college students, so please bare that in mind, and tip according to the service, but also, college workers are prone to make some small errors. I had the Sunday special, Prime rib (rare is the only way to go) and it was big and very tasty! My wife had the jaegerschnitzel and she enjoyed it! It is kind of small, but it is also a small town, even with the college nearby. Do I recommend this place? Unequivocally YES!! read more

This place is so cool. It's in a basement, but don't be fooled. Once you are down there you feel like you just teleported to Germany. The beers are great to sample and the food is fantastic. Their pretzels are on another level. The service has always been great and every waitress I've had, has had their own fun and unique personality. I love there sampler that has brats sourkrout and red cabbage. Their Ruben is life changing. And anyone Ive taken here asks me when we are going back. Great place. read more

The food and drinks at the Steinkeller are always top-notch and reasonably priced. I love wursts so I typically get the Double Wurst Platter and my partner gets a spaetzle. The pretzels are pretty perfect and the beer selection is appropriately huge. Not a fan of their particular German potato salad, but that's no big deal compared to the rest of the food (sauerkraut balls!!). Casual dining and if Gina is your server, buckle up read more

Good times at Steinkeller and although not perfectly authentic German it's the best in the area. It's a huge Miami University hang. Likely due to the 40 oz steins of beers, incredible portions of food and their beloved pretzels. The restaurant is located uptown Oxford off the main drag on the basement. The location makes it an interesting experience. There is good signage to find them if walking. However if driving you cannot see the sign. My family attended on Thursday schnitzel night. They have a variety of the traditional German dish. Service at the hostess station was professional as we were put on wait. With a wait we headed to the bar for an Octoberfest brew that was great! Service was friendly. We also ordered a pretzel that was recommended by the bartender. Our wait was short and we were seated in a booth with menus. Our waiter was attentive to getting drinks. There was a lot to review, but ultimately we found that the focus was on schnitzel. Our waiter returned with the pretzel and two schnitzels and a pulled pork was ordered. The pretzel came hot with cheese and spicy mustard. So dang yummy! Our orders came out within 20 minutes and delivered by a runner. Water refills were performed shortly after. Everyone enjoyed what they had. My dish was a breakfast pork schnitzel. The egg over easy on the top was perfect! It was good, not great. Our waiter checked in again. Our bill was closed timely and the price affordable for a large amount of food. Service was a 5. Atmosphere 4 Food 3. That's a strong 4. I would return. read more

they have one waitress there that is very loud and me and my wife enjoy eating there students are not we're local but when she waits on us, I she was another waitress. extremely loud and annoying and tries to get into your conversation on your business. The owner must know who she is. read more

The hostess was fairly useless, but the bartender was fabulous as was the beer, the sausage, and pretzel.

Food was tasty and fairly representative of Germany. Poor service, never offered my drink refill, even after hand up in air numerous times read more

While visiting with some friends they pitched the idea to get brunch in Oxford. Hidden down some stairs in downtown Oxford you'll find the entrance to Steinkeller. We were seated right away by a friendly host. Our waitress greeted us quickly as we ordered mimosas and water. I chose the brunch special which was a potato, sausage, and poached egg. It was surprisingly filling for its size. It was super tasty and I'd definitely eat again. The decor is all authentic German and super cozy. They have a full draft menu along with cocktails. It's a really fun place to hang and have brunch. read more

Go on a Thursday. I repeat, go on a Thursday. Their LITERS are $9!!! The amount of delicious beer choices here will make you never wanna leave. If you're there for a special event or a birthday - get the birthday person a boot ($50) and watch them suffer, or help them along. They'll get to keep the boot. It's entertaining for you and provides a great birthday gift for them. Everybody wins! Don't skimp on the food, either, it's bomb. Also, did I say to go on a Thursday yet? read more

I really enjoyed my lunch at Steinkeller this weekend. My partner and I were in Oxford for a quick trip and decided to try this place out. He had been here many times and recommended it. For starters, they have a great selection of German and local beers. I was a little disappointed that they were out of Spaten, but hey, it's because everyone loves it. So I had a big Palainer instead which was awesome. For lunch I wasn't too hungry so I had the amazing fresh pretzel with beer cheese that was so good! You could absolutely tell that this was the real deal and not some processed canned cheese. Seriously, so good. The service from the bartenders was super and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I'd totally recommend Steinkeller and can't wait to come back for a full dinner. read more

Steinkeller - Bavarian Pretzel - German Near Me - Oxford, Ohio

I am obsessed with everything about Steinkeller! I have frequented this spot throughout my time at Miami University, and it has really never failed me. My go-to pick for food is always the beer cheese pretzel. The pretzel it comes with is MASSIVE and absolutely delicious, and the beer cheese that it is accompanied by is perfect. I will dream of this beer cheese for years after I graduate. The service is always really good, slightly sassy, and always contains a good sense of humor. You can expect to get your food pretty quick when you dine here! I love the interior of Steinkeller - styled as a traditional beer hall in Germany. There's relics everywhere showing German pride, and the tables are either huge and wooden or large booths. I will miss this place more than I can explain! Next time you're in Oxford make sure you try this out. read more

Pretty cool place. Been there twice. If you're wanting real German food then stick to the sausages ONLy. The schnitzel is a weak substitute for the genuine thing. Skip the schnitzel. Beers are good, if they pour them correctly. Really nice ribeye. read more

Really good food with AWESOME service This is a great spot with an expansive menu and really attentive service read more

Great food, specifically the sour kraut balls and the wurst plate. We will be back..

The atmosphere is very German. Went on a Saturday there's not a lot on the menu to choose from. I got the Ruben it was enough for two

Fantastic hard to find German food and beer. There is no outside seating unfortunately (no beer garden) but the atmosphere is a true German rathskeller (hence the name). Always try to fit in a stop when I'm in Oxford. read more

Very good food. Great service. Love the sauerkraut balls. If you love German food this is pretty good.

Get a big boot of Franziskaner Hefe Weissbier and you're back in Munich. Can't go wrong with the schnitzels or brats.

I always enjoy my experiences at Steinkeller! And some of the best breakfast in Oxford too :) Not to be forgotten their wine night deals are pretty solid. They also do have a huge beer selection so worth checking out. read more

Omg this was so much fun. We got there and you have to go down stairs to get to the restaurant .. due to covid you have to call and get let inside to control the number of people. We only waited a few minutes. Ok full disclosure ...a little back story.. Im not a meat and potato lover (was vegitarian for over 10 years and still struggle with eating meat).. and not a huge fan of beer. I know what your thinking ..I'm weird and difficult lol. Which is why it took my husband 20 years to talk me into going to Germany. when we went on that Europe tour I did struggle to find something i would eat. But today We were walking around Houston Woods park and everyone was hungry and my husband said this had been recommended to him .. I said suspiciously that sounds German .. and he said it will be good. We went and had such a good time. Everyone had a beer .. two of us had a HUGE giant pretzel with beer cheese and mustard OMG it was the best. My husband had some sort of breaded meat and potato pasta and salad. He is sooo a meat a potatoes guy so he was in heaven. I would love to come back if in the area. He said he heard the steak is great. By the way this was literally the best soft pretzel I'd ever had and it was big enough for 2 people to eat as a meal. read more

Went for Sunday brunch. The varieties of Bloody Marys were impressive and delicious. Food was top notch. Service was great as well.
