What a fantastic hidden gem in Sidney! I highly recommend making a reservation, as the seating is quite limited. Each week, they offer a rotating menu featuring three delectable main dishes, along with appetizers and desserts. The Jägerschnitzel was absolutely superb—perfectly breaded and topped with a mouthwatering mushroom sauce. The spaetzle was soft and tender, but the true star of the meal was the fantastic red cabbage! I also have to mention that the potato pancake appetizer this week was exceptional. This wonderful restaurant is run by a mother-daughter team who greet you with such warmth, from the moment you walk in to when they prepare and serve your meal. I'm already looking forward to my next visit home and to dining at Bavaria again!

The food here is consistently fantastic and authentically German. This evening, we started with the potato pancakes as an appetizer and enjoyed a layered sponge cake filled with strawberry mousse for dessert. For our main courses, we chose the chicken breast served with a mixed bell pepper gravy, along with red cabbage and spätzle, and the pork tenderloin stuffed with brandy-soaked prunes, wrapped in bacon and coated in cornflakes, finished with a brandy cream gravy, red cabbage, and a potato dumpling. Every dish was absolutely delicious!

Wonderful, authentic German food made the way your Oma would make it. The owners care deeply about your experience and love to share the story of the dishes they serve. Make reservations if you are traveling from a distance because it is a small, intimate restaurant. Not inexpensive, but I’m happy to support these wonderful folks doing a wonderful thing by keeping German cuisine alive.
