Kaiserhof Restaurant

What to say as a German on vacation. Service cool, Beer 100%, Appetizer and Main course (Park Schnitzel- also my friend as a German Restaurant owner Said this looks good) as made in Germany. So proud about this Restaurant. Ambiente is Not typical German „Wirtschaft“ but nice. All over 100 points for this Location

Had a fantastic lunch at Kaiserhof Restaurant in San Diego! The atmosphere felt like a cozy German tavern — warm, inviting, and family-friendly. We ordered the escargot, Salat Schüssel, 🌭 Wurstplatte, and 🍖 roasted pork shank. Everything was flavorful and generously portioned. The pork shank was crispy on the outside, juicy inside — a bit fatty, but perfectly balanced with sauerkraut and red cabbage. Their warm bread basket was a nice touch, and the kids loved it too! 🍞 🍺 My favorite? The 1L Hofbräu Lager — crisp, malty, and made me feel like I was at Oktoberfest. Would definitely come back for more authentic German comfort food!

Food 2/5, service 2/5, atmosphere 5/5 Decided to go here for our anniversary lunch and left very disappointed. We came here specifically to try the Schweinehaxe (Large crispy roasted pork shank) and we were happy when the waitress said we can order it for lunch, but were disappointed with both the taste and textures of the dish. We have had it many times in Europe and this was by far the worst we’ve ever had (and the most expensive). The meat was dry, had no flavor, and the outside was crispy but way too oily. We got a side of beef goulash, and that was tasty, as well as the dumplings, which were more of like a dough that you dip in meat sauce, kind of gooey, but tasty. Service 2/5 Our server was nice and funny, but came around once every new moon, complaining about how busy she was every time. She forgot to bring us a beer we have ordered and our water and soda refills took 20 minutes to be delivered. It seems like the place was severely understaffed on a Saturday afternoon, hopefully it is only an isolated event. The place wasn’t full of people when we were there, we only saw a handful of tables around. The place was super cute, clean and traditional and the ambiance was great. The staff are wearing traditional Bavarian outfits and the beers are super cold and heavenly tasting. If I ever come back here, which I doubt, I would try the schnitzel.
