Cafe Old Vienna

I am so glad we found this little gem! We were trying to figure out where to grab something to eat on our last evening of vacation and decided to walk here from our resort. Our server, Angeli, was very kind and knowledgeable. She was able to answer and question we had about the menu plus took the time to help us choose between a couple dishes we narrowed down but couldn’t decide from. Our beers were brought out quickly as was our appetizer. We weren’t given our appetizer then our main courses back to back, I hate that. We weren’t given our able to enjoy our appetizer at hen side salads then our main course. The food was probably the best german food I’ve personally had! We haven’t even left back to Georgia and I’m already wanting to come back and other meals from this place. I will say I feel terrible coming less than an hour prior to closing. I hate being those diners but the staff didn’t seem to mind and treated us very well. We even got a dessert to go, mainly since we’re both stuffed but my partner has a heck of a sweet tooth so we had to get something. I highly recommend giving this place a try, If you have half the pleasant experience and tasty foods we had, you’re in for a wonderful threat! Even the inside is decorated really cute. I hope to come here again next time we visit Myrtle beach.

I can’t say I have ever been to a German restaurant before, it was a great concept. The whole place has a whole theme about it even down to the waitress outfits to the man play the accordion on stage. I’d say we order way more food than needed. A order of cordon blue, which was chicken with a slice of pastrami I think and cheese on top, and a side of cranberry sauce, also came with spatzle, and fresh vegetables. I’d say u would have to season those items to your liking. I just put black pepper on it. potato pancakes with apple sauce, was tasty. The salad was fresh and crisp, also the sausage sampler was good, with the spicy sweet mustard. The waitress was on point as well, always checking to make sure if we needed anything, I’m sure she said she’s from the Philippines,

This place has a solid selection of beers and a great atmosphere. The service was friendly and efficient, which made for a nice experience. The food was just okay—not bad, but nothing special. If you’re here for the beer and a good time, it’s worth a visit, but I wouldn’t come just for the food.

Absolutely fabulous meal as always! When I say this is my FAVORITE restaurant in all of Myrtle Beach I’m not exaggerating. Service is always good. Food is always plated exactly as it was the first time I stepped foot in here 13 years ago. Staff is still the same. You can’t go wrong with a meal here. Chicken Cordon Bleu and Pork Jaegerschnitzel were the two dishes we got this evening! 10/10 highly recommend!

This place was great! All the food was super good and the portions were huge. Our servers were very nice and friendly. They even had an old guy playing live music on an accordion. The decor is nice, definitely sets the Austrian vibe. The German feast for two is more like for three or four. I could straight drink the cheese sauce for the pretzels!! The chicken cordon blue was amazing! Also great mustard selection for the brauts.

Food was very tasty. Had a large selection of German goodies as well as other stuff like chicken wings. A little sometging for everyone. We had the German Feast for 2. Included weiner schnitzel, sausages, red cabbage and noodles. Plenty of food and some to take home. We had reservations and it got pretty busy right after we got there.

First time here and it will not be the last. It's a small place so I would make a reservation. I had a flight of German beers on a paddle and they were all tasty. Me and my wife split a soft pretzel with beer cheese dipping sauce and honestly I could have sat there all night drinking beers and eating pretzels. Dinnes include a side salad. I had the garlic dressing which was good. For my entree I had the German Feast. OMG was it fantastic..... 2 different sausages, spetzale, red cabbage and schnitzel. I substituted potato pancakes instead of fries. They came with sour cream and apple sauce on the side. My wife has the parmesan schnitzel with potato salad and spetzale. We took food home too. Try dipping the crusty bread in the beer cheese sauce. The menu is pretty extensive with lots of great appetizers and entrees. You won't be disappointed.

The black forest cake is absolutely a false representation of the authentic masterpiece. Fist of so many. No marinated cherries with cherry liquor. The frosting is something from a grocery store. Not fresh whipped cream. The chocolate batter is dense, not light and airy. Yes I am German, and frankly selling it as Black Forest cake is an insult. I don't know what else to describe it as. If you have ever been to Bavaria and tried the real masterpiece you will understand., I'd not, it's just a chocolate cake. American style. Even then I would pass. True facts. Google it. I know from living their. Der Kuchen war ganz schlimm. Real Black Forest cake.

Octoberfest!!! The German Dumpling Appetizer excellent! The bread is to die for! Get the House Honey Vinaigrette on your salad! I had the Octoberfest Stuffed Cabbage Platter with red cabbage and spaetzle. Yum! My husband got Weinerschnitzel! Always good! Caramel Apple Cake for dessert was the grand finale for a great German meal.

Cool German Restaurant Ambiance was fun but accordion player is a bit much fof such a small space. It was very hard to talk. Service was very attentive but we felt a bit rushed when two of our party were still eating and we were asked if we wanted dessert. Hungarian Gulash was fabulous. People who got weiner schnitzel were VERY pleased. Those who got the sauerbraurten were also happy. The stuffed cabbage was more like a hard Chinese sausage...really would not recommend and the veggie medley that came with it was barely cooked... in fact it was more like they blanched them. I've had better spaetzle. So, some good, some bad but I doubt I will go back again. Thanks

I'm making this review for my wife who was visiting the area for a conference. She had some time to kill and had spotted this restaurant on her way in to town. I have to say that I was on the phone with her and she was just blown away. She was raving about the decor, the service and especially about the food. She lived in Germany during college so she knows what she's talking about. If you like German food and are in the area this is a "do not miss" spot.

There pretzels are so good. The staff is also so friendly and the service is great you should check this place out the atmosphere is amazing

Greeted and seated at the perfect table. Jeff our outside table server was kind, friendly and helpful with our Happy Hour request. Our food and beers were great, look at the pictures for treats and you can almost taste them.

Spent 13 years living in Germany. Entering this restaurant was just like being back there. Very authentic German atmosphere! The food was prepared and presented just the way I remember it. Schnitzel was superb! Prices are very reasonable. Can't wait to go back on my next visit to Myrtle Beac.

We stopped in here for dinner one night before heading to the Boardwalk. It was boiling hot outside, but the restaurant was very comfortable inside. Very nice decor throughout the restaurant. Friendly staff and clean. There is indoor seating and a small patio outside. I would not suggest sitting on the patio during the summer months. The food tasted amazing. Authentic to German-Austrian cuisine. The schnitzel was fried perfectly, and had lots of flavor. The gravy on top had a rich mushroom flavor. The spetzel was freshly home made. The sweetness of the red cabbage complemented the savory noodles and meat. Would definitely return next time I'm in Myrtle Beach. Five stars!

Germany at Christmas time. Definitely a good place to eat very good German food. Greeted at the hostess station and seated. Vanessa was our super good server. She was very attentive to our allergies, Gluten intolerance and Celiac menus presented. We had our adult beverages and on to the deliciousness. decided to try the garlic soup which I devoured followed by a nice salad and the delicious Pork Belly dinner with enough to be enjoyed the next day for breakfast. My companions chose the GF Chicken Schnitzel and Pork Schnitzel and said the Chicken Schnitzel won out! They had a full parking lot which told us it was Good. We will return.

Jagerbraten was delicious. Meat was fork tender. Red cabbage and home fries made a great meal.

Stumbled across this spot, and it was amazing! Ordered the Jaeger Schnitzel and had the German Chocolate cake to go. The food and dessert were both amazing! The best I've had! Service was also great! If you're in the area, it's definitely a place worth checking out!

Authentic German cuisine. Reminds me of the food I used to enjoy when I lived in Mittenwald.

An amazing German restaurant. From the beer cheese and pretzel to the sausages and schnitzel were delicious. The service was friendly and prompt. This is an amazing place to visit while in Myrtle Beach.

A must stop for dinner and a special German beer. Service is always good, and the interior decor is alpine. We always love to sit outside when the weather allows. Note that the food is great. Be sure to try the pork shanks meal. All the favorites, red cabbage, spetzels,roasted potatoes and oven roasted pork. Mmm

This was our 2nd trip to Cafe Old Vienna and for sure this will be a stop every time we visit Myrtle Beach! We had sauerbraten and schnitzel and both dishes were spot on. The spetzel and potato pancakes were also wonderful. They have a great selection of German and Austrian beer and this time a tried a dark Austrian lager, very good. Nice desert selection, but not sure how you could have room for one. The service was quick and efficient and the server could answer all our questions. There is a guy playing German music there, loud enough to enjoy, but not too loud. One point of note: make a reservation since it's not a large restaurant and fills up quickly.

We have been wanting to eat here on our December visit for a few years. I was excited that they were open the same day we arrived in Myrtle Beach. We made reservations and were sat a big table right away. Our waitress Nelli was awesome. She was super friendly and took great care of us. We started with the pretzel and cheese dip. Both were excellent. Our meals came with fresh bread and salad. The house dressing is sweet and tangy. It was the perfect starter before the heavy entree. I had the veal jager schnitzel with Spätzle. Both items tasted like my time in Germany. The veal was crisp and the sauce had a ton of flavor. The cabbage was the perfect side dish. We were too full for dessert but they looked really good.

Great authentic German and Austrian food. The Jaeger Schnitzel meal was delicious the breaded Pork tenderloin was moist and delicious and the mushroom gravy topped of the generous portion size. The spatzle and red cabbage perfectly complimented the meal. My wife had the chicken schnitzel and was equally delicious and filling. The bread is a nice crispy crust served sliced and warm started off the dinner. Highly recommend this restaurant. We will be going back. This was our second time eating there. Service was excellent, I recommend you call ahead for reservations like we did. Great restaurant gets very busy.

Service is average at best. Ambiance is lacking. Schnitzel and spaetzel was simply not tasty at all.

Great Bartender very knowledgeable and charm sold me! The welcome was nice as soon as I sat down at the bar, the bartender made some nice menu suggestions. When I'm back in town I will stop in again! Highly recommend you stopping in for a drink or dinner! Looking forward to trying other dishes next time I'm in town!

My boyfriend's father was in the military and lived in Germany for some time. In fact, my boyfriend's sister was born there. So when we drove passed Cafe Old Vienna one evening, my boyfriend's father was super excited by the prospect of having dinner there, during our vacation. I'm not going to lie, I was pretty excited, too. I mean, my last name is Bayer, because my people come from the Bayern region of Germany. We walked to the restaurant from our hotel. I find Myrtle Beach to be very walkable, though sometimes sidewalk disappear and I had to take the scenic route in my chair. Our waitress, Angel, was amazing. She was personable and informative. She made sure that we had everything that we needed, refills, etc. I do feel a bit sad that we did not experience the accordion player. I feel like that would have been hilarious. There were six of us at dinner, and we had the best time sharing all of our food. "Taste this!" was one of the most repeated sentence during our meal, as we passed plates and held out forkfuls of food to each other. Everything was amazing. As appetizers we had: Potato Pancakes - Homemade potato pancakes served with tomato-cucumber salad and choice of sour cream or apple sauce. Not vegetarian. (My Polish grandmother used to make potato pancakes, and reigned supreme in my estimation, UNTIL THESE. Good gosh, incredible!) The Sausage Sampler Platter - Bratwurst, Bockwurst, Knackwurst, Weisswurst with two soft pretzel sticks, with an assortment of mustards. (Don't ask me which wurst was which, but they were all great.) And all of our meals came with a side salad. The house dressing is a honey mustard type thing that I wish I had remembered they sell it in bottles, because it was so very tasty. You do get to choose your dressing, but if you don't pick the house dressing, you are doing yourself a disservice. For my meal I had Stuffed Cabbage - Stuffed cabbage 2 pieces, filled with beef and rice, served over homemade tomato-bell pepper sauce (mild, not spicy). I had spaetzle for the first time ever and will definitely have to have it again some time in my life. This cannot be the only time I eat something so delicious. Stuffed cabbage is one of my most favorite things in the world and these did not disappoint. My boyfriend had Grilled Pork Belly (Grilled pork belly served over brown gravy with potato dumplings and sauerkraut.) He didn't like the potato dumplings. They were kinda like huge gnocchi. I ate his sauerkraut and it was superb. The pork belly was so tender and savory and definitely worth ordering. Dad had Veal-Jager Schnitzel - Tender veal cutlet, breaded and served over homemade mushroom, gravy served with potato dumplings or spaetzle and red cabbage. (He was over the moon. He said it was very much like what he had eaten in Germany. And they're not kidding when they say "tender.") AND the Viennese Gulasch - Beef stew in Hungarian paprika sauce (At this point he was so stuffed that he couldn't finish it, but he definitely enjoyed it.) The 11-year-old had the Pork Schnitzel. He's not an adventurous eater, but he liked this. We all left feeling like human stuffed cabbages. We could not have fit one more bite into our bellies. It was a delightful dinner. Would absolutely recommend.

My favorite place to visit when I'm in myrtle. The feast for two is more than enough food for two. Service is always great and it's always a good time.

I came here October 9 , 2021 and just realized I didn't do a review . Well , I make it to Myrtle Beach about every 2 years from Las Vegas , Nevada . I grew up in the Carolinas and love to come back and visit . I was in the military and was stationed in Germany for 4 years , 1985 to 1989 , so I love a good German Restaurant . I really liked this one and will definitely come back . Good food , good decor , good service , and live music . I had the Farmers Schnitzel which is a Breaded Pork Weiner Schnitzel with brown gravy and a sunny side up egg on top and capers with Spatzle and Red Cabbage . I had a good German Beer , but I can't remember which one I got . The service was very good and they even had an older gentleman playing the accordion on stage , playing tradition German Music . The place was decorated like different regions of Germany combined and the feeling of being at Octoberfest . The waitresses and waiters were dressed in traditional festival clothing which was a nice touch . They even had a beer garden outside celebrating Octoberfest . I would highly recommend coming here and having good food and a good time .

First time going to Cafe Vienna. We did not have reservations, but they were accomodating and could squeeze us in. Ordered the Sauerbraten and my wife ordered Wienerschnitzel. The Sauerbraten was very good, but I think the Wienerschitzel was even better. The house vinegarette on my salad was excellent. We also had desserts to go since the food was filling. The waitress was extremely attentive. All in all the experience was great and worth the visit.

Excellent food and service! I will definitely go back, the fish and chips were incredible.

Loved this place. I've been wanting to try it for years and never could figure out a way to convince everyone. Today was the day. They have a great beer garden and we ate outside because my little pup was with us. The staff was super friendly and shared ideas about what to order. I chose the schnitzel with mushroom gravy, red cabbage, and dumplings. It was perfection and reminded me of all my trips to Germany. I really enjoyed the food and the experience. Great menu and happy hour items. You can't go wrong.

It's kind of a quirky restaurant with a unique sort of Bavarian charm. The food was very good, so good we returned to eat there again the next day. I think we were probably a bigger fan of a few of the (grilled) fish dishes because we try to eat healthier. The fish dish with the tomatoes and peppers, grouper, and flounder was outstanding. Vegetables are very interesting choices, including red cabbage and spaetzel noodles. We liked this place, very down to earth, homey, good tasty, well prepared food at reasonable prices

Dined out on Thanksgiving eve with a visitor who had lived four years in Austria. She LOVED THE PLACE and MENU as did my wife and I who lived in Germany for 11 years. The menu is SO AUTHENTIC. Special thanks to Melissa and Serge who both made the evening even more PERFECT.

We found this place by accident and glad we stopped in. Very fun place to be and the food was wonderful. Great service!

Oh Cafe Old Vienna. I hate that my rating for you keeps dropping. We arrived just before dinner service was to start and waited about 10 mins before our server came to take our order. A 10 minute wait while 4 servers stood around chatting. I will give a smidgen of a star back because our server was not one of those standing around and seemed to be the only one working. Your only saving grace from me not giving you a lower rating is that the food was as good as ever. The German Feast for 2 is always the way to go in my opinion as you not only have dinner at the restaurant but you have lunch/dinner for the next day. I also appreciate that you can double up on the sides if there are ones that you don't care for as much. While I still recommend you to people I know that will be visiting, it is getting harder recommending you when there are so many service issues. After this visit, I'll have to think longer before I do recommend you to others in the future.

Excellent, Nice old German restaurant ! Great selection and mix , something for everyone! I han the veal Wiener schnitzel with mushroom gravy , potato dumpling and red cabbage- all excellent, best German plate I've ever had, hands down!!yes even the red cabbage was amazing! The veal was tender, every fork full! Friendly , well informed server. Sadly we're only here for 5 days or all 4 of us would return... and maybe we will! That good!

Food was good. Hostess was all grumpy. Waitress was rushed. Vibe was average. Worth the stop but not necessarily the repeat.

The food, the atmosphere and the service were all top notch! We have been several times now and it is one of favorite spots to eat at the beach when we are looking for something other than seafood.

Great German dishes and excellent service. Atmosphere is truly authentic bringing back my years of living in Germany

Food excellent! Ambiance was perfect polka's ,beer and stuffed cabbage! Service top notch! Noah found my phone and ran us down as we were about to pull out of parking lot in the rain to give it to me. He saved me the panic and recovery time.

Food was outstanding! Service was great and we were able to walk in and get a table. The ambiance made us feel like we were in another world. Highly recommend!

The food is awesome and the portions are generous. The prices are also very reasonable It's one of my favorites.

The food is great. Taste brought me back to Germany. Staff are very friendly and fast. Next time in Myrtle beach, I will be coming back.

Great place. Great food. Wonderful staff. German ambiance everywhere we looked. Free parking. Large servings reasonably priced.

Atmosphere is really nice. Love the clothes the ladies wear. Very pleasant staff. Food was okay but I don't think we'd be back again

This was a wonderful surprise. I had never had German food before, but my vacation partner has a German mother and spent many summers in Europe so I wanted to surprise him with this choice. Food, drinks, and service were all wonderful. Unfortunately, I did not get a photo of our plates. There was also an adorable man playing the accordion while we ate. I'll definitely return if I'm ever back in town.

Delicious food and wonderful service in an authentic German Austrian restaurant. Good beer & fun ambiance to spend a low key, relaxed evening. Save room for the desserts! We're not normally dessert people, but this place has a lot of choices for desserts and those that we've tried have been wonderful! We come here every year we are in Myrtle beach. Reservations recommended. This is an early crowd, so if you want to eat early, reservations are necessary. If you'd rather eat later like us, the crowd thins out. There is also outdoor seating if you'd prefer.

Amazing food, great atmosphere, good bier...this place was an amazing change of pace. Not something I was expecting but definitely would recommend. The staff were great with top notch service.

Never been to a German restaurant but person at hotel recommended. I never had spaetzle (noodles like dumplings) or red cabbage but tried it and it was okay. Got the feast for a meal and well it was tasty and filled my belly so recommend this place if in Myrtle Beach.

Authentic food! Good beer. Lively atmosphere! Make a reservation and save room for the fresh baked desserts!

Service was horrible. We had an Asian waitress that didn't look us in the eyes, was degrading in her mannerisms, rushed us, walked away before we finished talking, etc. We were still eating our dinner when she asked if we would be ordering desert. I replied not yet as we were still eating. She then threw desert menus at us. Wow. Just deploring. And service is already included in groups of 5 or more. Sad we had to pay for such treatment. Horrible experience, avoid it.

Amazing food; great service! This is amazing and authentic German/ Austrian food. This is our new go-to in Myrtle. Highly recommend.

Delicious Draft Beer Sampler Paddle and Bratwurst! Great company and great service! Also.. the apple strudel.. YUM!

Best meal we have had so far on our vacation! Really cute decor, service was top notch! German food was very authentic and so good! Portions were enormous! Schnitzel was tender with a nice crunchy coating and awesome gravy. All the sides enjoyably. Would highly recommend if you like German food!

Awesome authentic and so tasty. If you love German food and atmosphere only place to go.

Great food and great customer service. Our server--Vanessa was superb. Friendly and very efficient. Great atmosphere and ambiance. I highly recommend this restaurant for great German food.
