Excellent authentic German dishes. My wife says the mashed potatoes may be the best she's ever had. The house mustard was... amazing on the bratwurst with sauerkraut. Read more
I don?t even know where to begin. This is hands down the best German place I?ve tried in a while. The pretzel is humungous!! It... definitely can feed 4 dudes! Last night I had the Beef stroganoff and some German beer to wash it down. Best I?ve ever had.Everything from this place was delicious. And I?m definitely coming back for more. I might even get a t-shirt next time. Read more
Hands down the coolest German restaurant/bar!! The kraut balls were nice and settle but the beef stroganoff was to die for!!... Huge selection of beer. Great homemade food. We will definitely come back!! Maybe even tonight :-) Read more
Yeah. This place definitely is one of the top stops in Evansville. Its been around since 1890 for a reason! Interior is... interesting, and well decorated. Big bar with plenty of selection. Very happy with the staff- great recommendations on drinksand food. Super helpful and quite nice. Decent selection of scotch, wine, drinks, and of course beer! We tried the pig knucklefor the appetizer, and were not dissapointed. Sauerbraten with sauerkraut was great, as was the sampler meal. I tried the porkchop, bratwurst and stroganoff (these were the recommended local dishes). All were tasty. I'd suggest the stroganoff to anyonewho appreciates big chunks of meat and whole mushrooms. Red cabbage (awesome) and baked potatoes for sides. Almost everythingwas served with a couple slices of rye. No room for dessert, but will return. Prices were reasonable, especially for the amountand quality of food. Read more
Great spot for dinner! They have German and American food available and tons of beer on tap. The staff was super friendly and... fun to be around. We ordered the bacon charbroiled chicken sandwich, kielbase dinner, and fried chicken tenders. They were alldelicious! We also ended up ordering a brownie and German chocolate cake. Definitely recommend this spot! Read more
I visited Gerst Bavarian Haus to try authentic Evansville food. It was SO good! I keep dreaming about the giant, soft, salty,... warm pretzel with cheesy-tomato-beef dip. I love simple house salads with ranch - theirs did not disappoint. The cucumber andonion side dish was awesome, and the kielbasa was amazing. I was delighted to see a Malbec on the menu, which was excellent. Wewere helped quickly by a friendly server. I'm not from this area but will absolutely be visiting if I am ever in town again!

Unique place I highly recommend. Ask for Devin to be your waiter. He definitely knows the menu and was very patient with our... crew. We started with the Gerst Sampler to get a taste of several items. The potato cake thing was my favorite, who knewapplesauce & potatoes went together? I would recommend the kraut balls too. The smoked pork chop was my favorite entree & therewas a smoked lager on the menu that was the bomb. My husband loved his spatzle,, I'm not a fan of gravy but I think I would havelike it just with butter. Our both was cozy (and quiet which is great when you want to hear your friends while you eat). 11 outof 10 for service ! I will definitely be back. Read more
