Pork Schnitzel
Yarn Y.

We had a really pleasant experience having lunch in this establishment - a nicely decorated bar/bistro in Lodi .service was great , food was excellent and creative and the prices were beyond reasonable . What else do we need ? Here's everything we had : 1) beef pockets - 3 little " emphanades" that were yummy and fresh . Dip them in the mustard spread and the pickled onion and they were supper yummy ! 4.3/5 2) holiday salad - a generous portion of mixed greens, butternut squash, seeds , goat cheese , pomegranate seeds ...all this came w a very tasty sauce . 4.1/5 3) pork schnitzel - large schnitzel , freshly fried with yummy pretzel bun. We really enjoyed this one . 4/5 We will be back for sure next time in the area, so many other great options in the menu to try out !

Nosh Burger

I finally got to try West Oak Nosh and wow this place is great. inside was nice and roomy with lots of seating. The employees were really friendly and nice. I was able to place a to go order and I got the Pork Schnitzel, Nosh Burger, and the B.A.L.T. Combo. The food was really good. My favorite was the B.A.L.T the sandwich was huge. The bacon was crispy and delicious and the avocado mash was nice and flavorful. The fries were also seasoned well and crispy. The Pork Schnitzel was huge. A little too dry for me. and needed more seasoning. The pickled onions were a kick of flavor and got my attention. wow. The Nosh Burger was really good. The meat was tasty and the greens were fresh. I got the chipotle aioli sauce on the side and was able to sauce it up. I'm impressed with West Oak Nosh. I will definitely return when I'm in the area to try their other items.

Rachael was super attentive, even though it was a very busy Valentine's Day lunch! She was friendly and helpful. Made great drinks! We went there because of the reviews on Yelp for the burgers. We ordered the Smash Burger with fries. Very tasty, delicious burger. The fries were out of this world! That could've been a meal by themselves (in fact you can order them with your choice of protein). It is a casual place, with a comfortable vibe. We will be back to try the sausage and schnitzel!

Nosh Fries

I love German food. Definitely heavy and you will be stuffed. It's a cute restaurant in a cute town. We over ordered, but it's ok because we demolished the food the next day. Nosh fries: 4/5 huge portion! Delicious with all ingredients, but too much for me Fried onions: loved this and the sauce 5/5 Sausage board: it was pretty good with the mustard and condiments 4/5 Pork schnitzel: also pretty good and an authentic German dish. 4/5 Drinks: espresso martini 4/5 and the spritz can't go wrong 4/5 Overall restaurant is yummy and will fill your tummy.

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, affordable drinks and food.

The deviled eggs, pickled and regular... yum!!

We love West Oak Nosh! Their menu has German roots but they offer a lighter take on things. Their menu is locally sourced and they even make their own sausages. We have tried so many things from their menu, all of which are good. I love their deviled eggs, their schnitzel sandwich, their burger (add a fried egg), and their giant freshly made pretzel... but my go-to is their B.A.L.T. Sandwich! My husband and I like to split it. It comes with a side of their yummy duck fat fries and I always add a side green salad with vinaigrette. It makes for the perfect lunch! They have a great beer selection with locally sourced beers and some great N/A options. I haven't had one of their cocktails but I've seen some beautiful drinks that they make. Great food and drinks, wonderful owners and kind and friendly staff. A must try!

Old fashioned with Basil Hayden Dark Rye... If you don't know, now you know.

Listen up, this place will have you sayin' fo' shizzle my schnitzel with its clean takes on German cuisine. Don't pass on the house made sausage, and if you're down with pineapple, they are as good if not better than the brats. The nosh burger might be the best in town, but the pork schnitzel sandwich on a pretzel knot bun will leave you with a real hankering for a second stomach. I have friends that day trip from the Bay Area for this restaurant. It's affordable, approachable, and deliciously humble elevated biergarten grub. Ask your waiter if the deviled eggs are still available, and nosh nosh nosh on all the appetizers.

However, through their Facebook page you can sign up for "VIP Loyalty" and get a couple of cool offers. The ones I could claim were a FREE Pretzel or a FREE One Sausage Platter. Older offers included FREE Custom Dog or FREE French Fries. These are available Sunday through Friday only, one offer per visit, not valid with any other offers, dine-in only. Show in person to staff and get a special code to redeem. I love their giant pretzels and sausage platters, and the fruity Starburst grapefruit radler beer with pom cider is such a summer vibe. Most recent visit was also able to catch the Argentina World Cup game on the projector. For my FREE offer I went with the one sausage platter (picked bratwurst and potato salad), then also got a 500mL Starburst and a pretzel with added bier cheese. Judi got the Berliner dog (curry and fries) and a cucumber salad, and we shared an order of the S'mores Belgie dessert! I will be back soon for my FREE pretzel, and I must remember to try the Starburst as a slushie/frozen!

When the waiter brought my drink, I immediately noticed it didn't look like a traditional Piña Colada, and after tasting it, I confirmed it certainly didn't taste like one either. I politely asked if I could exchange it for a different drink. The waiter returned and said the manager wouldn't allow an exchange but would offer me 50% off instead. I explained that I wasn't happy with the drink and simply wanted to order something else. The manager came over and explained that the menu includes a disclaimer stating the cocktails are made with soju instead of the traditional liquor. In my opinion, the waiter should have mentioned that when I ordered, especially since it significantly changes the flavor. I hadn't noticed the disclaimer--I simply ordered what I thought would be a classic Piña Colada. Unfortunately, I was still charged half the price for a drink I didn't enjoy and wasn't allowed to order a replacement. The manager emphasized that it was too expensive for the restaurant to remake drinks, which I found disappointing. I've never had an experience like this at any other restaurant. On a positive note, I ordered the Reuben sandwich with fries, and it was delicious. That was the highlight of the meal. However, the service was also lacking. Our waiter was slow and couldn't answer several of our questions without repeatedly leaving to ask someone else. Because of the poor customer service and how the drink situation was handled, I won't be returning.

I know I should have gotten something else from the menu, but the entree I had last time (Czech 'Svitchkova') was too good to pass up. The soup for the day was chicken noodle, so I went for that this time. Czech 'Svitchkova': This was exactly as I remembered it. I noticed from last time I got three pieces instead of two. The sauce is what made this dish for me. The meat was tough like I remembered it. The spetzel was deliciously cooked and the special berry compote was tart. Overall, I enjoyed this dish. My soup was a bit on the cold side though, so it was not as appealing to me. Still, happy to come back here again and enjoy my German fixings. Wishing the best for all the workers here.

We had the Jagerschnitzel and the Bratwurst dinners. The portions were huge and we had enough leftover for lunch the next day. They give you two very large pieces of Jagerschnitzel, which is breaded pork with mushroom gravy. The sides are what you would expect in a German restaurant - spaetzel, purple cabbage and a potato dish, often potato salad. The service was excellent and parking is ample in their own lot.

They opened at 10am and were definitely not ready for business once those doors opened - when customers started walking in, there were no staff present at all. We also couldn't find a menu anywhere - about 5 minutes later, we saw one of the employees folding some up. We ordered regular Duck Fat Fries and Dirty Duck Fries to share - the fries on both items tasted old, stale and not how we remembered. I also hated the heavy beer flavor of the cheese sauce on the Dirty Duck Fries - these fries used to be amazing! They were the reason we always came back. Overall, my husband and I used to love coming to LowBrau - we even came with a bunch of people the day after we got married almost 12 years ago. I don't know if this was just an off day, but it was not like we remembered - even the vibes felt off. I don't see us coming back for a while unfortunately.
