The end of summer is sad for many people, but for beer drinkers it means one thing in particular—the start of Oktoberfest! This special commemoration of German culture, food, and beer is celebrated all over the country, including right here in Idaho. You’ll find that our state is home to all sorts of Oktoberfest festivals and events, but there’s one authentic German restaurant you’ll want to be sure to check out as the celebration draws nearer. Not only does this restaurant hold a month-long Oktoberfest, but they serve up some of the tastiest German cuisine that the state of Idaho has to offer.
There's no better place to celebrate German cuisine and culture than Idaho's most authentic German restaurant. Located in the city of Eagle, Schnitzel Garten will make you forget you're in Idaho and transport you across the world.
Schnitzel Garten is a true hidden gem in southern Idaho. The rustic atmosphere paired with the delicious German cuisine is the perfect recipe for a dining experience you won't soon forget.
German restaurants can be hard to come by here in Idaho, but this one delivers on all fronts. Opened by a German native back in 2013, you can rest assured you're getting the real deal when you visit—from the spot-on traditional German dishes to the jovial setting.
The menu itself is packed with a variety of classic dishes, each of which was created using family recipes which have been passed down for generations. From tasty brat wurst to Bavarian pretzels, it hits all the marks.
Of course, you'll find that the menu contains a variety of types of Schnitzel. From classic Wiener Schnitzel (served with slices of lemon) and Jäger Schnitzel (served with a signature mushroom sauce) to the house special Preiselbeeren (served with lemons and lingonberry sauce), you'll definitely have plenty of variations to choose from!
If you find that you just can't make a decision, you can always rely on the restaurant's sampler platter. Served with Jäger Schnitzel, smoked bratwurst, mashed potatoes, red cabbage, and sauerkraut, it gives you a little bit of everything on just one plate.
If you have yet to visit Schnitzel Garten, the upcoming Oktoberfest celebration is the perfect time to do so! Taking place from September 21 through October 26, the restaurant will be packing in all the authentic German beer, food, live music, and games you could ever desire.
It's hard to be anything but completely joyous when dining on authentic German cuisine and drinking an ice cold German beer in either the lively dining room or beer garden setting. The next time you find yourself craving a real taste of Germany, stop by Schnitzel Garten and prepare to be wowed!
