I couldn't say how many times we've walked by this restaurant and never stopped, but this time we actually stopped in. My expectations were not high since I lived in Germany for nearly three years, so I didn't have a great deal of confidence that...an authentic version even existed nearby. I have to admit that I - and my wife - were pleasantly surprised. I had the Weiner Schnitzel and my wife, the Jagerschnitzel with potato salad and both options were very good. We chose the applestrudel for dessert and that was also a good one. The food arrived in a timely manner, was delicious and piping hot. The evening was nice. so we had dinner outside and the service, atmosphere and the service were all very good. While we were there, a couple came in and told us that they eat there often and always enjoy it. We've agreed that we'll come back again and maybe more often. There was one 'problem': The portions are on the big side, so you need to be hungry.More

We've dined at Bavarian Haus every time we've visited Mt Dora for the last three years. But this review expresses great disappointment even though we didn't dine this time. Christmas week is a busy one, but Bavarian Haus fell over itself pushing us away. There...may be a lot of reasons, including a large group at the time, but politeness should never be absent the mix. There were no seats, yet other tables that could have been separated or pulled in from outside seating. An explanation would have been nice.More

I saw German food and wanted my visiting family to try something different, along with good beers. We got potato pancakes and a large pretzel for apps, both were really good. Then the entrees came, very disappointing. The dishes with mushroom gravy were smothered with...it, too overwhelming. The sides were okay to awful. The German potato salad lacked the zing one normally tastes with the dish. The red cabbage and sauerkraut were way to vinegary and sour. The spatzle were mushy and with a bland sauce. I made the mistake of ordering the Apfel Strudel, terrible. How a German restaurant can mess up strudel, making the normally crisp baked delicacy into a soggy, mushy heap that looked more like a soft taco, swimming in melted vanilla ice cream, is beyond me. On the bright side, the service was very good and so were the beers.More

My Wife and I had lunch here during our last visit to Mt. Dora. Small restaurant. Cold beer. Our Schnitzel's were both really good. My Wife tried the Potato Dumplings - she did not care for them at all. I had the spatzle, it was...better than the dumplings!! Service was good. Schnitzels were very good. We would try this place again.More

Just average German food. We ordered Bratwurst platter. The 3 wursts links were devoid of spices and had little flavor. The sauerkraut was nothing special and might as well have come from a can. No bread served. The apple strudel was a "house special" but...was a mess not strongly tasting like apple. The bland homemade vanilla ice cream overshadowed the strudel. This was our first, and only visit. The food quality was not worth a return visit. Our server was attentive and prices were OK. It's the food flavor that was disappointing.More

I called and got a prerecorded message. No indication that they close excessively early.They do not take reservations their web site hasn’t been updated to indicate they close at 730. I do not care if they only have two people. Update your information. That doesn’t...take but one person. Very poor customer service.More

Brats were cooked well and tasty. Schnitzel had been pre-cooked and was served lukewarm. The breading was soggy. Sides were okay. Will never return!

The music was too loud. Someone was hammering on something in the kitchen and never stopped all the time we were there. They do not give you any bread it costs $1.00 for a piece of white bread and a little butter. I had the...Sour Braten . It had way too much vinegar in it. The dumplings were like glue. The food overall was not too good. We have been here many times before . It is not the same food. Service was OK not too friendly.More

Had dinner on Friday night around 6.00pm Lucky enough to get a table The Owner/Server is about as friendly and sincere as a guillotine. The actual waitress who brings out your food is the real McCoy. Food is fabulous. I cannot fault it. The Wiener...Schnitzel was melt in the mouth The Rouladen was to die for. The Black Forest Cake was heavenly. Please remove the owner and put on some seriously food wait staff and you would never get into this Restaurant to enjoy the exemplary food it has to offerMore

None of the wineries I know of in NY State have any overnight lodgings. Some have restaurants but that's all. Sorry!
